   Kagome would have laughed when Sesshomaru tossed Satoru onto the front room sofa as they walked in the door if she didn’t realize how bad Sesshomaru was at this moment. She looked over his shoulder at the crumpled rat demon, and met his wide fearful eyes. She nodded once to let him know that she was ok, and then looked at Sesshomaru. He was single-minded. His eyes were still red, and Kagome could feel his youkai flaring violently around him. He was still way beyond pissed. Someone had taken his soon-to-be-mate, and he was denied killing said youkai. His beast was restless for blood. Kagome knew there was only one way to quell it as he carried her upstairs. She knew she wouldn’t be walking away from this night without being forever tied to the demon that carried her.
   She saw something from below as he crested the steps. She glanced down to see her friends, family- pack - gathered below. They knew from Sesshomaru’s malevolent aura that they were to stay clear. They did so, but still wanted to insure that she was safe. She was their alpha female. She nodded to them as well to let them know she was fine.
   Her eyes immediately went back to Sesshomaru when he paused and growled. It was low, feral, and a warning. He was looking at her, and she knew he was displeased that her attention wasn’t on him. She held his gaze, and he began to walk once more. She didn’t let her gaze stray from him after that.
   As soon as they were through the door to his bedroom- their bedroom- Sesshomaru closed the door and locked it. He set her feet carefully on the floor, but kept his arms around her insuring she would go nowhere. Kagome held his gaze still, as she traced her hands along his shoulders and arms. “Thank you,” she whispered to him. He growled, and then his lips were on hers. Kagome closed her eyes, and relished in the feeling. When he released her lips they were both panting. Kagome waited, but he made no move to continue. He was waiting for something. Kagome knew what it was. She stared into his eyes. “Take me Sesshomaru.” Her voice was husky.
He growled, pleased. Then his mouth was on hers again, and his hands began to explore her body. Kagome moaned into Sesshomaru’s mouth, and let herself go to the feelings raging through her body.

Two days later, after much persuading on Kagome’s part, Kagome unlocked the door to their room, and emerged. Sesshomaru was right behind her. Kagome walked slowly. Even having the phenomenal healing of a demon she was still sore.
Almost to the kitchen she paused when Sesshomaru placed a hand on her waist and growled. She waited, and soon Kouga, Shippou, and Satoru came into view. Kagome laughed. She turned to Sesshomaru, and took his face in her hands. “Silly old dog! Look at me!” She waited until his eyes met hers. “They are pack so cut it out!” She turned back to the three with a beaming smile. They were watching Sesshomaru warily. “Don’t mind him, he’s still feeling a bit instinctual.” She glanced over her shoulder at Sesshomaru, and then sighed. She moved past the astonished three to sit down at the island.
The others went to stand across from her, making sure to leave a wide space. Shippou went to the fridge, and began pulling out food for Kagome to eat.
Kagome dug in gratefully as Shippou set the food in front of her. Between bites she asked, “How long is he going to be like this?” As the last word escaped her mouth Sesshomaru darted away. She looked around incredulously. “What the hell?”
Kouga chuckled. “He has deemed us safe, trustworthy, and pack. He knows we will guard you with our lives, and had gone to check his territory. He will be back when he deems that safe as well.”
Kagome shook her head. She was still learning about youkai it seemed. She continued eating, and not long after Sesshomaru was back. He sat beside her, his regal self once more. He reached out and took a sandwich, and took a bite as if nothing had happened in the last few days. Kagome was, of course, staring at him.
Kouga chuckled again. “His territory is safe. He should be completely normal again until you are threatened or in danger.”
Sesshomaru looked at him, and then to Kagome. She saw the smile in his eyes, that wasn’t on his lips. She slapped him playfully. “Well at least this Sesshomaru is better than that possessive dog.”
He growled at her, and she stuck her tongue out in response. With that they both went back to their eating.
Shippou sat by her.”Mom?”
She looked up to him hearing his serious tone. “Yes dear?”
“You never told them what was going on with Inuyasha and Kikyou. Do you thing that was what killed him?”
Kagome set down her sandwich and fork. She had lost her appetite. She looked at the marble countertop for a long while before filling the silence that permeated the atmosphere. “Yes,” she said softly. She paused to gather herself. “Inuyasha-” her voice broke over his name. She had been holding in the flood of emotions that had nearly overwhelmed her when her anger had finally worn off. It had taken several days for her anger to recede, and when it did it left behind a raw wound and a torrent of emotions. She hated that they had left things as they had. “Inuyasha most likely died due to what Kikyou had taken to doing to him. She was-” She bit back a sob as the vision of him and his body bloomed in her mind with a vibrant ferocity. “She was using him to put her tortured soul at peace. She was left with the fraction of the soul that she took back from me- the one filled with hate and anger- and the souls that she was using to survive as she was. The jewel had fused it all together to give her life, and it left her in a living purgatory. I’m not sure how, but she did find a way to be a peace within herself. She was cutting as some people do these days, but she wasn’t doing it to herself. She was doing it to Inuyasha.”
Silence took hold once more. When it was broken it was Sesshomaru. “He just let her do that to him?”
Kagome nodded. “He felt he was responsible for her death even after we killed Naraku. He let her do it as atonement for his sins, and for making the wish that had made her that way. He felt honor bound to let her find her peace.”
Sesshomaru sighed next to her. “He was an Inu in his heart, and always was. So she was lying to me because she didn’t want me to know that his death was her fault. That would also explain the traces of his blood in her hut; it was the blades she used to cut him.”
Kagome only nodded not trusting her voice. The pain and regret of her last encounter with her best friend filled her heart. She hated that the demon in her hadn’t allowed her to let it be more peaceful, and now she would never see him again to make it right. She grieved for her loss.
She pushed away from the counter, and went to the gardens that surrounded the mansion. She wandered let her feet lead while her heart and soul grieved. She found her life still missing something without her friend in it. She wanted to say goodbye.
In a second she made a decision. She ran as fast as she could until she reached her destination. She slipped inside the door, and knew that none had seen her without her concealment on. She steadied herself, and then walked down the few steps to the object that had changed her life. The darkness didn’t faze her. She let her fingers slide along the rim of the aged wood as she gazed at her old friend.
“I’m sorry Inuyasha. I didn’t want it to be like that.” She sighed, and hung her head. “Goodbye Inuyasha, I will always remember, and always love.” A tear fell from her eye, and plummeted to the bottom of the well. Familiar blue light sprung into existence, casting a faint glow to the well and Kagome. Kagome stared into the unending depth. She was being given a second chance to do things right. She glanced over her shoulder, and then jumped into the well.

Kagome lithely jumped over the well lip. She looked around feudal Japan, and then took off toward Inuyasha’s hut. She reached it in a few minutes, and sat in the bushes. She watched the hut trying to decide what to do. She sniffed the air and found it free of any blood. There was a light inside, but it was silent.
Kagome began shuffling around trying to make as much noise as possible. She was rewarded when she heard movement inside. She stopped, and waited. She saw the figure slip out the door, and she sniffed the air. He didn’t call out just stood there trying to see vainly in the dark. Kagome stepped forward, and let him see her.
Inuyasha stiffened, and glanced behind him. Then he crossed to Kagome. He took her hand without hesitation, and led her away from the hut. They went to the same meadow where he had found her with Kaede. They settled in the grass together, and gazed up at the starry sky.
“I’m amazed you came back.”
Kagome smiled, but kept looking at the stars. “Yes, I am too.”
“Does- does he know you’re here?”
Her smile faded a little. “No. No one does. They all believe that I can’t come back anymore.”
“Will you?”
She sighed. “I think this was the god’s way to let us end it better- end it right. I think I will never be allowed back.”
A long silence floated between them. “I will miss you.”
She smelled the salt of his tears, and her own began to fall. “I will miss you too.”
They lingered a bit longer, then Inuyasha stood, and offered Kagome a hand. She took it, and smiled when he didn’t flinch at her clawed fingers. He looked into her eyes. “This is really how you are now?”
Kagome nodded once more not trusting her voice.
“I’m sorry.”
Kagome smiled. “Don’t be. I realized that you could never love me like I loved you, like you love Kikyou, and I’m ok with that. Your wish, and the results, let me find my happiness, my Kikyou.”
“He really makes you that happy?”
Kagome took his hand, and began toward the well. “You should know that Inuyasha. As Kagome I wouldn’t be satisfied with anything less, as an Inu I couldn’t either.”
Inuyasha smiled. “What’s the bastard like?”
“Sweet, and loving. Rin mated Shippou, and they have like a billion kids! He lets them run around, and climb on him. He’s so different, but still can snap to that stoic lord in a second. And he’s even friends with Kouga.”
Inuyasha felt her happiness infect him. They paused at the well. “I’m glad you’re happy.”
Kagome smiled despite her pain. She knew this was the last she’d see him. “You did ok Inuyasha. Don’t punish yourself too much ok?”
He nodded fighting the tears. “Be happy and live well.”
“I will. You will always be in my heart my brother.” A smiled broke over Inuyasha’s face that warmed Kagome’s heart. “Live well.” She hugged him tightly. They parted, and Kagome touched his shoulder one last time. “Goodbye my friend.”
Inuyasha’s word reached her as she jumped down the well. “Goodbye my Kagome.” After the light was gone he sat on the well lip. “I did love you.” He hung his head, and cried for his loss.
Kagome mirrored him on her side. The pain rolled inside her like the sea in a bad storm, and her happiness at a better farewell was the ship trying not to be destroyed in the heaving waters. She looked up as Sesshomaru entered the well house.
“Mate?”
“I wanted to say goodbye in a better way.”
He nodded, and gave her a hand to stand. She looked up into his eyes as she stood. “Let’s go home mate.”
Kagome nodded. This was her home now.
