*DISCLAIMER* i do not own Inuyasha nor will i ever... (maybe in my dreams but meh)

Looking out the window, Hana Higurashi looked at the old well house. It had been a few months since Kagome was home. She had been travelling between the two worlds for over three years now, Hana had many fears with Kagome's adventures but there was one...

"MUM! I'm home" Kagome's cheerful voice rang through the house.

"Kagome welcome home" Hana gave her daughter a hug, then she saw a tall man behind her, he looked like Inuyasha only he was a foot taller and had markings. "and who is this dear?"

"Oh yeah, Sesshomaru meet Hana Higurashi my mother, Mother meet my mate Lord Sesshomaru of the western lands." Hana looked at the man before her with fear in her eyes. Sesshomaru? The same 'man' who tried to kill her Kagome.

"Kagome I wish to speak to my son-in-law in private for a moment." for the first time ever Sesshomaru felt uncontrollable fear, and for a simple nigen onna at that. Kagome gave him a hug and a kiss for luck and left him with the scary female.

Kagome felt sorry for Sesshomaru, since Naraku's attack last year, Sesshomaru had taken it upon himself to protect Kagome, Kirara and Shippo. Inuyasha, Sango and Miroku had died protecting them. Sesshomaru had come just in time to save her.

It was any other day, Kagome had sat Inuyasha into a creator about 6 feet deep.

"INUYAHSA YOUR SUCH A JERK!"

"What's your problem wench? All I said was it was.."

"SIT BOY" Sango and Miroku rolled their eyes as Kagome issued more 'SIT' commands.

"Inuyasha say ya sorry and maybe she'll stop sitting you" suggested Shippo giggling.

"Feh, all I said was Kikyo could cook better rabbit stew that's all" protested Inuyasha "not my fault she can't take a criticism... uh oh" Inuyasha saw the sweet and innocent look Kagome was giving him.

"Inuyasha..."

"No Kagome. Please. The stew was fine. I'm sorry mercy" begged the poor half demon

"SIT BOY!" Sango and Miroku felt the earth tremble when Inuyasha added two more feet to his creator.

A few hours later

Kagome was sitting on Kirara with Sango, she had longed forgiven Inuyasha and was just teasing him.

"Kagome?"

"Yeah Sango"

"I wanted to tell you something" Kagome looked at her 'sister' with confusion.

"You know we have lost many friends these last few months?"

"Yeah..."

"Well if anything was to happen to me, I want you to look after Kirara. Is that OK?"

"Sango, I would happily look after Kirara but hopefully nothing will happen."

Kagome looked at Sango with concern, why would she say something like this? Sadly she didn't have tome to ask as at that moment Naraku appeared. The following battle was a blood bath, Kirara had Kagome and Shippo safely on her back and more importantly out of harms way. Kagome witnessed her friends being ripped apart.

"Did they think they had a chance? Now for you three..." Naraku sent a swarm of demons towards the remains of the group, however before they attacked a white light killed all of them. Landing on the ground, the light faded and revealed Sesshomaru.

*End FB*

Sesshomaru was trying his hardest to appear calm but this woman was as scary, She could see where Kagome got her scary side from. Hana was pleased with Kagome's choice as she could tell Sesshomaru loved her daughter.

"Sesshomaru, I am happy my daughter chose you. She hasn't been this happy since..."

"Since Inuyasha" Sesshomaru finished for her "She told me she did love him but the love she had for him isn't the same as the love for this Sesshomaru" he explained. Sesshomaru spied a picture on the wall, the picture showed a young Kagome, her mother, grandfather, baby boy a man who could pass as the boys father, but he held no resemblance to Kagome.

"Please tell me about Kagome's father" Hana looked at Sesshomaru, she took down the picture. "I can tell the man in the picture is not her father" sighing Hana told Sesshomaru about Kagome's father

"he was a one-night stand when I was younger, I had an argument with my boyfriend and wanted to be away from it all. I don't know his name and I don't remember what he looks like. A week later my boyfriend asked me to marry him, he knew of what I did. I've never told Kagome."

"I see. So your mate took upon himself to raise a pup though it wasn't his? He must have been a honourable man." Sesshomaru said looking at the picture. Hana nodded her head in thanks and looked sadly at the picture. "Pardon this Sesshomaru for asking but how did your mate die?"

"He died in a car crash three months after Souta was born." Hana explained.

Later that evening

A dark figure watched from the tree outside the shrine, he had seen Kagome and Sesshomaru walk in to the house and could see them getting ready for bed through Kagome's window. 'who would think that the purest being in existence was born form me' the figure turned and walked to the well. 'my greatest creation'
