Kagome had just finished bandaging Rin and carefully handed her to Sesshoumaru to place in a sleeping bag. "Give her some pain killers, Asami will help you find the childrens pain killers." She turned to Kanna just as the girl came around. She moaned in pain and instantly Kagura was by her side.
"Kanna, shh, it's alright," she soothed. Kagome arched her brow. She'd never realized how caring the demoness could be.
"Kagura, you're gonna have to move so I can take care of her," Kagome said. As Kagura moved to give Kagome the space she needed they heard a soft voice they'd never heard before.
"No," Kanna said. Slowly, gingerly she reached out with her less injured hand to grasp Kagura's. "I can feel now Kagura. I can feel and it's so strange. I'm scared Kagura. There's too much." Kanna's voice was now truly that of a little girl. It was laced with pain, fear and awe. Kagome watched as the once emotionless child began to cry. Kagura began to stroke her hair and shush the distraught girl. Sesshoumaru came and placed the girl in Kagome's lap before placing Kagome in his own lap. Soon a soft thrumming growl flowed through the clearing as he made to soothe his mate and Kanna.
Everyone calmed and was drawn to the quartet when Kagome's aura flowed out over them. Sesshoumaru's eyes widened when he sensed the difference. Her aura despite being bound was stronger than ever and within it he could sense two others. They were miniscule but they were there. He waited for her to finish working on Kanna before he alerted her to the change. As the pain medication took effect on Kanna, she let go of Kagura's hand and snuggled deeper into Kagome's hold. He almost keeled over at the girls sleepy sigh of "mama."
Kagome wasn't too surprised at what the girl called her. She was willing to accept the role so long as Kagura and Sesshoumaru had no qualms with it. Looking up to see Kagura's eyes shining with adoration Kagome didn't think she'd have to ask. Still, in the spirit of fairness she had to be sure. "Would you mind if I took her as one of my own?"
"Please, do Lady Kagome. Kanna maybe my elder sister but she is still very much a child. I fear that I would never be able to be the mother she needs. And she truly does need one," Kagura spoke solemnly. "I only ask that I still be able to see her, she is the only family I have." Kagome nodded and smiled, hugging the wind witch, cautious of the precious child in her lap.
She looked over her shoulder at Sesshoumaru. He nodded with a smile twinkling in his eyes. "This Sesshoumaru is the proud father of three with two more on the way. I cannot imagine anyone demoness, human, hanyou, or miko that I would rather have as a mate and mother to my pups."
"Two! As in twins!" Kagome freaked. When he nodded, she collapsed against his shoulder in a faint. He heard laughter and turned to see his mate's parents approaching them.
"Good thing no one told her it might be more than two," Midoriko giggled. She lifted her new granddaughter off of Kagome. She brushed the bangs from her sweaty brow as she carefully held the girl close. She'd missed out on this opportunity with her own daughter, and now said daughter was a happily mated mother. Midoriko swore no matter what she'd never be torn away from her family again. Katsuro lifted his daughter from demon lord without asking. When Sesshoumaru growled Katsuro merely rolled his eyes.
"Pipe down pup. I am the girls father for goodness sake. You know the father you didn't pay respects to before mating and knocking up my daughter," Katsuro said as he shook his head and placed Kagome next to Rin on the bedding. Midoriko then placed Kanna on Rin's other side.
"We should not travel today," she said after being sure the girls were settled. "Too much has occurred in such a short time and it would be prudent to let ourselves relax before moving on. This pack has grown quite a pit so reorganization would also be needed she said." They all simply nodded. Shippo went to join his sister's and mother on the bedding and Sesshoumaru followed soon after.
"We'll need a barrier set up and soon," Midoriko stated.
"We weren't the only ones freed from the jewels grasp," Katsuro agreed. "All the youkai that had been trapped with us are free as well. Kanna did well in channeling all that evil away from us." Midoriko smiled at that.
"Yes, she even channeled new power into us," she said looking around at the confused faces. "You don't believe us? I see a test is in order. Now, where to start…" Her eyes landed on Kirara.
"Ahh, yes the fire neko." Sango tensed ready to protect Kirara if need be. "Shiro… Kuro… Restrain the slayer." The twins jumped but did as they were told. They were surprised to find that it was a bit harder than they'd assumed it would be. Even for a demon slayer Sango was turning out to be stronger than any mere human could dream of being.
"Mistress Sango, you are stronger now." Everyone froze and turned to the voice.
"Ummm, mom, I thought you said fire cats couldn't talk," Souta said as he stared with his eyes wide.
"Umm they can't… Well, in my time they didn't," Asami said equally surprised. They watched Midoriko kneel before the demon cat. She took the cats front paws and held them up so that she stood on her hind legs. Sango nearly fainted as the cat began to take on a humanoid form. When the transformation was done there stood a 3 foot tall girl with Kirara's markings and tail where Kirara once stood. Kirara's ears twitched this way and that as she turned to look at Sango.
"Kirara?"
"Mistress Sango," the cat girl stumbled on unsure feet toward her mistress. The twins let go so Sango could pick her up. Midoriko turned away from the pair to eye Inuyasha and Kikyo.
"You two come here now," she ordered. She watched as Inuyasha moved to pick Kikyo up. "No, she will come here of her own power." She ignored the hanyou's scowl and stealed herself against Kikyo's worried look. The woman slowly stood and began to move forward.
Kikyo had believed the woman was after her own revenge for the pain she'd put her daughter through but soon found that wasn't the case. With each step Kikyo took she gained confidence and in no time she'd crossed the camp and stood before Midoriko with a smile on her face. She was startled when Midoriko flicked her nose.
"That was for all the trouble you've caused," Midoriko said sternly despite the smile softening her features. "Inuyasha come here." Midoriko took Kikyo's hand and then Inuyasha's once he reached them. Linking their hands together she let them go. "So long as you remain as balanced as you are now, you will not have to worry about dying long before your mate. You've also been blessed with the strength that blessed Sango." Seeing a hopeful light fill the woman's eyes Katsuro stepped forward.
"You still have no spiritual powers to speak of," Katsuro spoke the words that would banish that light. "But you would be surprised what other blessings you have." Kikyo nodded numbly.
"Inuyasha, come here," Katsuro said. "Never again will you be afflicted with the threat of being taken over by your demon blood nor will you have to fear the night of the new moon," Katsuro said.
"Thanks," the hanyou mumbled as he and Kikyo held each other counting their blessings. With short nods Katsuro and Midoriko turned to Kagura and Renjiro. Eyes softening a bit Midoriko called to them for their attention.
"Kagura, come take a walk with me," Midoriko held her hand out for her to take. Renjiro moved out of her way so that she could stand and take the woman's hand. He watched dazedly as they walked away. A strong hand on his shoulder made him turn away.
"Let's leave the ladies to it. Goodness, knows Midoriko hasn't had any 'girl talk'," Katsuro rolled his eyes, "in years. We're going hunting. Monk, care to join us?"
"I would be honored," Miroku said. With that they left in the direction opposite of where Midoriko led Kagura.
(^_^)
Kagura and Midoriko sat in companionable silence a ways away from camp. Midoriko was content to listen to the birds chirping and feel the life in the world around her. It felt so good to be experiencing life and balance again. Kagura sat beside her with her eyes closed as she focused on her heart beat. It was such an odd feeling. The pressure in her once numb chest wasn't painful but it still felt strange to her. She found that she liked this strange feeling. Finally, Midoriko broke the silence.
"We're both free now," she stated simply. Kagura nodded.
"Freedom… It is the only thing I ever really wanted and now I have it. It feels… odd. I was truly worried for Kanna's well fare. I'd always dreamt that when I was free I would care for no one but myself. I'd be free to focus on myself."
"Would you ever give up your new found freedom?" Midoriko asked already knowing the answer.
"Never."
"Even if it means you cannot have my daughters mate?"
"Of course milady," Kagura sighed a bit sadly.
"Hmmm, very well then. In that case I should make you aware that just as your freedom was a bit of a surprise so will be the blessings of the jewel." Kagura's eyes widened but before she could question the woman, Midoriko was already walking away.

Darkness coiled in the dungeons of a dark crumbling castle. A pained groan filled the air as the body laying on the ground finally woke. The darkness coalesced as a body was formed. Slowly the being on the ground lifted his new hand to his face. Turning it this way and that the being examined it as he sat up.
Naraku no longer bore the image of the human prince whose body he'd stolen. Now he was something different entirely. Rising slowly he moved to examine himself in the mirror. His skin was now the black of raven feathers and his eyes twin swirling masses of colors in his face. He opened his mouth to examine his teeth and found razors instead. Lifting his now clawed hand he ran his fingers over the pointed ear into his white hair.
He could feel a strength he'd never known before inside him. It seemed to stem from amplified forms of his darkest emotions. Hatred, violence, and greed all seemed to tighten his new heart. It felt as if his heart was being crushed within his chest. But he relished the feeling. Looking down Naraku smirked.Hn, it would seem I've overlooked my amplified lust.
He didn't know how all this happened, but he'd take advantage of it. So focused was he on his changes and plans that he never noticed the presence even darker than his hovering in the background.
(^_^)
When Kagome awoke she found that she was laying down with her family. The children slept in between her and Sesshoumaru. She watched as he opened his eyes to lock gazes with her.
"Have you slept well, my princess?" His face was blank save for the tiniest of upturns in the corner of his mouth and the shine in his twin sun eyes.
"I don't remember deciding to take a nap, but yes I slept well my prince." Kagome sat up and peered at the children as they began to stir. The first one to open their eyes was Kanna. Kagome gasped at their color. "Your eyes!" Kanna was startled and jumped, whimpering in pain when the sudden movement pulled at her wounds. Kagome sat up pulling the girl into her lap.
"Shh, it's okay sweety I didn't mean to startle you," Kagome cooed as she stroked the girls silver hair. No longer was it a dull and lifeless white, now it had the same shine as Sesshoumaru's hair. There was color in her cheeks, but the most noticeable change had been in her eyes.
"Let me see," Sesshoumaru said. He held his arms out prepared to take Kanna from his mate. Once the girl was settled Sesshoumaru brushed her bangs away and his eyes widened momentarily.
"Purple eyes?" He looked up at his mother-in-law as she returned with Kagura following behind.
"Just like mine," Midoriko smiled. She and Kagura kneeled before the taiyoukai and his daughter.
"How are you feeling, Kanna?" They watched her blink confused eyes up at them.
"I don't know," she answered.
"Explain for us," Sesshoumaru murmured.
"My arms and the front of my body," she paused as she searched for the words, "burn and sting. My head feels like it's pulsing… Kind of like my chest, but in a bad way."
"Okay hold on just one second," Kagome went to her bag and pulled out a small medicine bottle. Kanna blinked and watched her mother approach her with a spoonful of the strange orange liquid. "Open your mouth. You have a headache and this'll help make it go away. Okay, sweetie?" Kana nodded slowly before complying. Her face pinched as she swallowed the liquid. The taste wasn't bad but it wasn't very pleasant either. Suddenly, her stomach grumbled and her cheeks flushed pink as laughter sounded around her waking her brother and sister.
"Okay, well Katsuro just went hunting with Renjiro and Miroku so we'll be eating soon," Midoriko said as her laughter subsided. Even Sesshoumaru was smiling down at her and brushed her bangs out of her eyes. As he shifted to lay her down, she quickly turned to wrap her arms around his neck.
"No, not yet." Sesshoumaru arched his brow as he once again settled her in his arms. Kanna burrowed deeper into his hold before relaxing once again. Her mother and siblings moved up beside them as she took a breath. She grasped her mothers hand and placed it over the left side of her chest. "I feel strange here. It makes me want to smile. It makes my chest tight, but it's good. I want to wrap my arms around mama and papa and Rin and Shippo." A chorus of 'Awwws' were heard before the family converged into a group hug. Rin giggled at Kanna's widened eyes.
"You're feeling love and happiness, Kanna," Rin giggled. "Mama and papa always make us feel like that. It's what they do."
"Yeah," Shippo cheered with a fanged smile. Kagome looked at him and noticed something completely different about her son.
"Shippo, when did you get so much bigger? What happened to your hind legs?" Everyone looked at him with varying expressions of surprise.
(^_^)
The tachi had taken to flying to reach the western palace sooner. Sesshoumaru sent Natsu and the twins ahead to make sure that things were prepared. The sooner this was done with the better. He wasn't too surprised when Natsu confessed to already giving the order for the palace to be prepared for the ceremony. When he had asked how she could possibly expect it to be done on such short notice, she revealed that she'd set the task on the day he'd called them all into his study.
He was torn between gratitude and anger, only settling on anger when she'd told him of the invitations. He snarled at her when she went as far as to remind him that he would have had to invite them anyway. He didn't have the patience to deal with his mother and various the lords that had had the nerve to attempt to trap him into alliances with them by offering their daughters and sisters to be his mate. She'd saved him from having to write civil invitations when he felt anything but.
"Remember the whole point of this is to put them in their places, Sesshoumaru. Believe me after a ceremony like the one yours promises to be not even the kami could challenge your union. I've even arranged for Rikuto have little to no time to attempt anything before the ceremony," Natsu replied calmly. That last line got everyone moving reminding them that they didn't have time to waste.
As they flew through the sky now Sesshoumaru could not keep his hands to himself and he certainly didn't try to. He wanted… NO… N eeded for her to be tortured with the need to be filled by him. Before her mind was completely lost to passion, however, Kagome remembered that she had to clarify something's with Sesshoumaru.
"Why exactly do we have to mate in front of your court and guests?" She moaned as he nibbled on her unmarked shoulder and brushed his fingers against her mark.
"It is customary for a lord to present his mate to others, is it not so even amongst humans?" His breath ghosted over her skin and pressed closer to her as she nodded, her voice momentarily lost. "Youkai run on instinct," he paused to lick the column of her neck. "To have so many ogling what is claimed leaves our instincts in an uproar to show our dominance and to stake our claim so that none will forget it."
"Years ago, it had been common for youkai to slaughter those that attended the balls where our mates would be presented. The urge to kill and maim, so that dominance and claims would be known cannot be ignored, miko. Then there had been a lord that took the energy of such instincts and turned it on his mate. It became common practice for a mating ceremony to be performed in front of court and guests." He smirked when she moaned as he raked his claws down her side.
"Would you like that my miko? To have others watch as I take what is mine; what they can never have; knowing that they wish it were themselves? Would you like to feel the fire that burns as our auras clash and I dominate you? Know this miko I will not be gentle and I will make sure they have quite the show." His chuckle was dark and lusty as she shivered in his arms. His eyes flashed red, one hand gripped her hip harshly as the other gripped her breast through the fabric of her shirt rather harshly. Mine.
