Tales of Defiance by Saphire Angel

Sweet Sixteen Kagome's New Powers

Kagome: Inuyasha I have to go home tomorrow is my 16th birthday move.

Inuyasha: No

Kagome: Sit Sit Sit Sit Sit Sit Sit Sit Sit Sit Sit Sit

Inuyasha:(Falls down)

Kagome: Stay Boy. I'll be back in two days. Shippo you can come down from the tree now.

Shippo: Yeahhh lets go. Are you sure you should leave him like that though?

Kagome: He'll be fine now come on.

Kagome put her big yellow knapsack on and caught Shippo as he jumped down from the tree. Shippo hopped onto her shoulder and she jumped into the well.

In the present on the other side of the well

Kagome climbed the ladder of the well and walked out of the mini shrine. She spotted her little brother Souta and called to him. Souta ran to his sister and hugged her. She hugged him back. Souta looked at Shippo and smiled. He liked it when Kagome brought her Fuedal Era friends home. Shippo hopped off of Kagome's shoulder and onto Souta's. Souta took Shippo from his shoulder and hugged him gently. The three walked to the house. Kagome hugged her mother and grandfather.

The Next Day

Kagome had sewed a kimono for Shippo. He put it on. It was blue with white spots. Today was going to be a day to remember because it was the day when Kagome would get her Youkai power back. Kagome had invited only a few friends to her birthday party. She had only told a few of her school friends her secret about being a Youkai. She had told Rei, Yukka, Samayo and Litisha. Kagome was wearing a blue Kimono with butterfly designs on it. her obi was bright yellow. Her hair was in a bun deacorated with butterfly hairclips around it. She was wearing black high heel sandals.

Kagome and her brother were decorateing. Shippo was blowing up baloons while Kangome's mother of raiseing (which means mother who raised you)and her grandfather cooked the food for the party. The door rang and the delivery man handed Kagome's grandfather two boxes. He indicated that the bigger one was the cake and that the smaller one was a present for Kagome. Kagome waited for her grandfather to take the boxes before running to the delivery man who was her uncle Ben. She hugged him tightly since she had not seen him for about six months. He hugged her back and the let her stand in front of him to take a better look at her. "You've changed a lot in six months Kagome. Excited about your powers returning?" he said as he bent down to lightly kiss her forehead. "I am I just wish dad was here to see this" she said.

Most of the guest had arrived. Kagome's school friends had arrived. Her uncle Ben and aunt Eleain had arrived with her cousins Alan and Alex. The only people missing were Rin and Sesshomaru.

Kagome walked out of the house to the mini shrine. She climbed down the well and then back up after travelingh back to the warring states era. She was emidiately greeted by a very happy Rin hugging her and a very normal looking Sesshomaru. She hugged Rin and looked at Sesshomaru. Without warning Kagome was picked up by Sesshomaru. Sesshomaru held Kagome in his arms and wrapped his tail around Rin's waist. With both of then in his grasp he jumped into the well. He released Rin and Kagome after jumping out of the well in Kagome's time.

The day went by as expected with dancing, eating and partying. Then night and the Full Moon appeared. Sesshomaru realized that Kagome was nervous about getting her Youkai powers back. He gave her a gentle push and she walked out to center of Higurashi shrine. She stood facing them all under the light of the Full Moon. A few momemts later Kagome began to glow bright yellow. Kagome's friends and family watched as Kagome's hair turned from pure raven black to blackishsilver. They watched as Kagome human hands turned into clawed hands. They watched as Kagome's tail appeared and as she grew wings. Her last physical change was the cresent moon with an arrow through it that apeared on her forehead.
