Kagome POV:

Her breathing was erratic and her legs burning with a flame from hell. She couldn't begin to imagine how long she had been running but still the tears leaked from her eyes running wet trails down her face. She couldn't think past running as far away from camp as she possibly could before the soul wrenching screams and sobs tore from her poor abused body. The passing tree branches and bushes tore pieces of flesh from her as she ran with all her might leaving blood trailing down her body but the slight sting mattered not to her.

He had finally done it. He had made his choice.

Kikyo.

The love of his entire life. The stupid clay pot. Heartless bitch. She was cruel, deceitful, and unbearable. How Inuyasha could love a being like her, Kagome had no idea. Her heart had immediately shattered into a million pieces when they had walked hand in hand into camp. Inuyashas' mating mark shinning brightly on Kikyos' neck. She had calmly got up, turned tail, and ran out of camp without a word to anyone.

SMACK!

Kagome fell to the gound into a mud puddle of all things. She lay there in mud without any other care in the world for anything, not even giving a bother to glance up and try to find out what it was or who it was that she had run into. She lay in the mud aching all over, her heart feeling void of anything other than intense pain and betrayal, and began to sob and scream her pain into the night air.

Sess POV:

He was honestly surprised to see his brother miko alone and in such a state in the middle of the forest. He listened in the nearby areas for any sources of sound of the rest of the group that the little miko traveled with and heard no trace. He regarded the miko, Kagome if he remembered right, and noticed that she was covered in minor cuts that were bleeding but would not require any immediate attention and were definitely not life threatening. The rain and the cold as well as her current emotional state were the first that should be dealt with.

"Miko, would you mind telling this Sesshomarou why you felt it necessary to run into him?"

The miko jerked, screaming as if she had no idea that he was standing there much less that he was the reason why she was now currently laying in a puddle of mud. Pathetic human. She would have been slaughtered a million times over if any lesser demon had found her. He scoffed.

"Little miko, if this Sesshomarou meant to cause you harm you would already be dead. You will cease that insolent noise at once! You will make this Sesshomarous' ears bleed!" he barked.

All she could do was look up at him with her blood mixing with the rain and tears that had her eyes almost swollen shut. Sesshomarous' beast reared its' ugly head and screamed, "OURS! BEAUTIFUL! MATE!" Sesshomarou shook it off and barked once again at the miko, "Miko! Speak!"

Kagome managed to whisper out, "Kykio. Inuyasha. Mated." Before she promptly fell unconscious.

Ah so that was it. His foolish half brother had choose the dead over the living. Foolish hanyou. The dead miko offered nothing but troubles and death while the alive miko currently passed out at his feet offered so much more than even he himself knew just yet. He could feel even now her power coming off of her in waves and her purity even after all these years traveling with his brother as well as the amount of death he knew she had been exposed to was astounding to even Sesshomarou.

On a minutes whim he picked up the miko and summoned up his floating cloud and flew back to his castle.

Apun arrival he called for his personal healer and laid the girl on one of the beds in the royal family wing of the castle. "She has been running in the forest in the rain at night. She has minor cuts all over her body. She is in need of a bath, medical treatment, and good meal if she awakens." If she awakens send for me." Sesshomarou turned to leave the room and Kagome with his healer. "Oh, and Izayoi, if she perishes I will be sending you to meet my father as everyone has assumed you have already." Then he left his long silver-white hair flowing behind him.

So what did you think? I would love to have some reviews. This was a last minute project I decided to take up. Yes, Inuyashas' mother is alive. No, he has no idea....yet. Pretty nice twist there isn't it? The only ones who know she is still alive is Sesshomarou himself seeing as that she is his healer and Keade, who has been sworn apun death to secrecy. Chapter two will hopefully be up in the next couple of days to a week. I hope to hear from you all very soon. Thanks for reading!
