Inuyasha?

I don't own the characters of Inuyasha.

A/N: Kagome was not sent to her world in this story by the shikon jewel for three years.

VWL

It had been a year since Naraku's death.

Inuyasha had missed Kikyo dearly. It really effected Kagome.

To make things worse, Inuyasha took his time to get to know most of the single women in Kaede's village. He didn't turn an eye to Kagome.

Typical Inuyasha.

When the final battle took place, Kagome had said bye to her family in case she would not be able to see them again. Now with the jewel gone, she was still able to go back and forth between worlds. But she wondered when that would change.

She came back for Inuyasha, Sango. Miroku, Shippo, Kaede, Rin, he even had normal conversations with Sesshomaru at times. She was shocked by this.

Ever since she had met Sesshomaru up until about a month after Naraku was destroyed. Sesshomaru had hated her, and thought she was weak. But there was one incident where demons attempted to attack the village and the inu group fought them off.

Rin was terrified. Kagome ran to her and Rin stayed behind Kagome. Kagome said that she would not leave Rin's side until Sesshomaru came back.

Rin was shaken up bad. She stayed in Kaede's hut.

Kagome stayed with her and didn't leave Rin until Sesshomaru showed up three days later. Kaede was also carrying for Rin too.

Kagome and Rin had become very close.

Kagome had kept her word.

Sesshomaru was impressed by this. He gained new respect for the miko.

He even wished to know more about her. And he has now gotten to know her for almost a year.

But they didn't see each other as more than friends.

Miroku and Sango had got married. She recently had a pair of twins.

They were a boy and girl.

Sasuke and Shizuka.

Shippo and Kohaku had become best friends.

Kaede is still alive. She is still the high priestess of the village.

Koga mated Ayame.

Totosai and myoga are still as cowardly as ever.

Things were as they should be.

:) Present Time :)

Kagome and Rin were in Rin's favorite meadow. It was in the Southern lands, but just barely.

It was also a quarter of a mile from Kaede's village which was in the West.

Kagome had asked Inuyasha to go with them like he usually did if they left the village.

She remembered his words.

"Eh, Kagome you can defend Rin just fine. I finally get to spend time with Sakura."

The memory almost brought tears to her eyes. She was sitting in the flowers and Rin was picking them.

Rin looked at Kagome.

"You okay Lady Kagome?" Rin asked.

Kagome smiled. "Yes I'm just fine sweet heart."

Kagome sensed Inuyasha coming there way. She stood.

But then she sensed a lesser demon coming towards them to.

"Get behind me sweetheart." Kagome said.

"Yes, moma." Rin said as she ran and hid behind Kagome.

The comment caught Kagome slightly off guard.

She focused her attention to the on coming demon. She readied her bow and arrows.

She would protect Rin with her life.

Luckily Shippo was with Miroku, Sango, and Kohaku at the village.

A snake demon slithered into the clearing but it was coming at the girls quick.

Kagome shot her arrow. She was shaking because she tried to hurry.

She missed.

She got another arrow ready. She fired and hit it's tail.

It hissed at her as it sped up.

In the blink of an eye, Inuyasha jumped out if the trees with Tetsusaiga over his head. He brought the sword down and cut the snake in half.

When he was sure it was dead. He sheathed Tetsusaiga and faced Kagome.

He walked up to her and hugged her around her waist. He pulled her into his tight embrace.

She obviously blushed. He saw Rin standing behind her.

"Are you okay?" Inuyasha asked both girls as he looked at Rin who was still behind Kagome.

Rin gave him a smile and nodded.

"Yes, were fine Inuyasha." Kagome said.

Rin looked at Inuyasha closer.

His eyes had changed red and blue.

Kagome didn't see it.

"L-Lady K-Kagome, something's wrong with Inuyasha." Rin said.

"What?" Kagome said.

She attempted to pull back from Inuyasha. He gave a growl.

He pulled back and wrapped his hand around her throat. She cried out in pain as she gripped his hand.

She didn't want to shock him with her powers.

"R-Rin, run." Kagome chocked out.

RIn gave a loud scream and ran.

Inuyasha then threw Kagome as hard at he felt like. He was angry for some reason.

She was thrown to the other side of the meadow. A good forty yards.

Rin saw this and ran to her.

Kagome landed on her back. She had a few cracked ribs and popped her left shoulder out of place from the landing. Her nose was bleeding.

"Lady Kagome! Are you okay?!" Rin asked as she ran up to Kagome who grunted in pain.

Kagome slowly sat up.

Inuyasha ran at them.

His beast was in control.

"S-Sit." Kagome said weakly.

It didn't work.

Kagome stood. She mustered all the breath she had.

"Inuyasha Sit!" She yelled.

It didn't work.

'This can't be Inuyasha his beads didn't even glow.' Kagome thought.

Inuyasha drew Tetsusaiga as he ran at the humans.

"Run Rin!" Kagome yelled.

She didn't have her bow and arrows.

She called forth her spiritual energy.

But it quickly made her weak as she held out her right hand.

It glowed pink.

"I won't leave you Lady Kagome!" Rin yelled.

Kagome walked toward Inuyasha. He continued to run at her.

When he swiped his claws at her, she managed to movw iut of the way. She then expanded her energy.

Inuyasha was hit.

Inuyasha was sent flying thirty feet. He landed on his back but quickly got back up.

Inuyasha ran at her again.

Kagome kneeled on the ground.

"Hurry come here Rin." Kagome said.

Rin ran to stand beside Kagome.

Kagome placed a barrier around them.

In the blink of an eye, both girls heard blades clashed.

"Lord Sesshomaru!" Rin yelled.

Kagome looked at the two.

They both jumped back. They were ten feet from each other.

It wasn't Inuyasha anymore.

What the?

It was a demon with black hair and green eyes. He was as tall as Sesshomaru.

The demon had his hair in a high ponytail much like Koga.

He wore a blue outfit with a chest plate and shoulder armor.

Sesshomaru sheathed his sword Bakusaiga.

"I figured you would be back in your lands with your disgusting clan. Senri." Sesshomaru said bitterly.

"What fun would that be? Especially when I can kill the shikon miko? And your ward is a bonus." Senri said.

"You touch my ward, you will die a slow and painful death." Sesshomaru said menacingly.

"Don't forget Sesshomaru, you are trespassing on my lands." Senri warned.

Senri was the Southern Lord. He was an ice demon. He could also shape shift but he could not use the power of the being he turns into.

Kagome cried out in pain as she held her ribs. Rin ran beside her.

Kagome went to her knees.

"Lady Kagome your really hurt!" Rin yelled.

Kagome had to stay awake. She couldn't let the pain make her pass out.

She had to keep her barrier up.

"I will go for now, but if the miko or your ward comes into my lands again. I will make sure you see their deaths." Senri said.

Sesshomaru smirked.

"Such Big words for such weak vermin." Sesshomaru said.

"The word weak never made us Lords, Sesshomaru. But it's okay. Next time I they will face there deaths." Senri turned to the miko.

"You knew I was not Inuyasha. You knew it when you couldn't subdue the half demon. So you made a move of attack. Impressive. But either way. We will meet again." Senri said. As he turned and walked away gracefully.

Sesshomaru continued to watch the demon walk away.

When Kagome didn't sense the strange demon anymore, she finally gave in to the darkness as she fell over.

"Lady Kagome!" Rin yelled.

The barrier went down.

Sesshomaru turned to face his ward and the miko.

She was laying on the ground on her back.

Her eyes were closed.

He walked over to the miko and stood above her.

He would kill Inuyasha for leaving his ward in the mikos care alone.

He knew the miko could protect Rin but with what just happened. Neither is to be left alone.

The mikos eyes opened slightly.

"I'm sorry L-Lord S-Sesshomaru." Kagome said.

She then passed out completely.

"Lord Sesshomaru, will she be okay?" Rin asked.

Sesshomaru looked to his ward and nodded.

He leaned down and picked the miko up in his arms.

"Let's go Rin." Sesshomaru said in his usual voice.

"Okay." Rin said. They walked back towards the village.

Sesshomaru was once again greatful to the miko.
