Secrets to be Revealed
Sesshoumaru couldn't help but to let his eyes wander. The onna walked with an air of power that one could only be born with. It was like a shield had been shattered and the power he'd felt in her ever since they'd first met was rising from an eternal slumber. hough part of him still disapproved of her cothing, another part of hi was thanking any kami that would listen for the delicious view. Those pants allowed his eyes to roam over her mile long legs and memorize every little detail without ever seeing her skin. She'd placed some sort of garment over her top so that less of her skin showed. Yet the image of her shoulder's and tops of her breasts was seared into his mind.
Kagome could feel everyone staring at her back and it unnerved her quite a bit. She knew no matter what she said everyone would deem her as pack leader. They would look to her for guidance now. It was her job to make sure they were protected. Her job to make sure they ate. Her job to settled disputes. So much responsibility. She sighed in relief whe he well came into view.
"Okay, I'll be back as soon as possible. It shouldn't take more than a few hours. I'll definately be here before lunchtime. I'll make sure to bring lunch and a few more supplies." It had been late last night when she'd arrived. Things had happened so fast and before they knew it, it was dawn. She turned to Sesshoumaru and gave him one last defiant look before she disappeared down the well in a flash of blue light.
Sesshoumaru turned to observe the miko's pack, for it was her pack now. The monk set up a barrier around them to keep them hidden and protected while they awaited the miko's return. The slayer pulled out the strange contraption the miko slept in. She slid in and pulled the young fow kit in. They knew Sesshoumaru was an honorabe youkai and wouldn't attack them.
"Monk, explain the events leading up to my arrival," ordered Sesshoumaru as he sat cross legged at the side of the well. He eyed the monk critically noting the nervous shifting of aura and body as he spoke. Miroku was no fool. He knew the ways of youkai. Kagome was a strong female. The alpha female of their pack, but with no alpha male she was free game. With a hentai radar like his, anyone could tell that the taiyoukai desired her. How would this latest turn of events affected things?
"Kagome has been declared pack leader," Miroku spoke with pride in his friend as he ended his tale.
"Hn," came Sesshoumaru's infamous reply.

"Honey, you're back so soon," Kagome's mother noted.
"Yeah, I'm going to meet Rin so I came to get a few things for her," Kagome yawned. Ever so perceptive, her mother knew there was more to the story. Knowing this Kagome sat down so they could talk. At the end of her story, Kagome felt a litle better.
"Well, I guess it's time we gave you this," said Gramps as he placed a pendant around her neck. As Kagome, went to touch it Mama shooed her hand away.
"Be careful dear, those edges are sharp," Mama cautioned. Rolling her eyes, Kagome took a mirror out of her bag. The sight before her took her breath away. Dangling from a white gold chain that seemed too fragile to touch, was a sun with a crescent moon on each side. The center of the sun was made of bright and impressively large canary diamond shined like a replica of the true sun.
"Oh, it's beautiful," Kagome cried as she spun around feeling a bit like a princess.
"It's a family heirloom. Someday soon it's secrets will be unlocked," Asami whispered asshe hugged Kagome. "Now, why don't you go take a nap. I gather everything you'll need and make lunch. I'll wake you when I'm done." She gave Kagome a quick kiss. Once she was sure Kagome was in her room, Asami turned to Gramps.
"We're almost there," she whispered in a voice that sounded a few years younger with tears in her eyes as she buried her face into his shoulder.
"I know, my love," a young man's voice answered her. "I know."

Kagome sat in a meadow that seemed familiar. She looked down at herself and gasped. She wasn't in her travel clothes but a flowing black dress.
"Don't be afraid my daughter," came a woman's voice that flowed like honey. "I'm so glad to finally be able to speak to you. Asami did a wonderful job raising you. You're more than I ever could have hoped you'd be." Kagome recognized this voice as if from a long forgotten dream. The voice was silent after that leaving Kagome to wonder around. Eventually, she came across a cave.
"What is it with this dream? Everything's so familiar," she mumbled to herself.
"Someday soon the secrets will be unlocked," said the voice. Then Kagome woke up. Looking around the room it took a second before she was reoriented well enough. Then something clicked in her head.
Oh, no what time is it? My first day as leader and already I'm screwing up. There was no alarm clock to tell her what time it was because Inuyasha broke her last one during his last visit. Pushing all thoughts of her dream to the back of her mind Kagome started to get dressed. A knock on the door pulled Kagome's attention away from her closet.
"Come in," she called out.
In came her mother looking a bit younger, but flustered. "I got these for you while I was out. I left the rest of the stuff by the door for you," she said a bit breathlessly. Kagome felt a pang of suspision but was in too much of a hurry to care. Donning the new clothes her mom got her Kagome rushed out, not stopping to check her outfit. She barely noticed that it was still pretty bright out.

Once on the other side of the well, Kagome was greeted by Shippo giving her a great big hug. "Mama, you're back"
"Sorry, I'm late everyone," she said quickly. They shot her questioning glances.
"Kagome you were only gone for a little over two hours we still have a while til lunch," Sango said. Hearing this Kagome calmed down. She took a second to check the time on a watch she'd given Shippo. They were right. She was just a little on edge.
Sesshoumaru had been ready to order her to leave the second he felt her enter their realm. At least that had been the case until he saw her coming out of the well. He thought her previous outfits were bad, but looking at what she was wearing he realized he was dead wrong. She wore a tube top that seemed to fit like a second skin and a skirt that made her green one look wholesome. She wore black tights under it but they were thin and almost sheer. On her arms were arm warmers and on her feet she wore ballet flats.
How could she move in that? Then the sunlight gleamed off of the pendant that rested snuggly just above her breasts. He couldn't stop himself. He and his beast were mesmerized.
"Well, Lord Sesshoumaru, what should we do?" Her voice pulled him out of his thoughts, though it did not help much as it only stirred his beast even more.
"Hn," he said in his same stoic demeanor not letting them notice anything out of the usual. Kagome gave an exasperated sigh.
"Should we stay here until after lunch or go to your camp?"
"They come this way as we speak," he answered in his cold drawl.
"Okay, then. Sango will you spar with me for a bit?"
"Sure." Everyone watched as they both dropped their things and moved a ways off. Sesshoumaru was curious he'd like to see how well the young miko could defend herself. He was caught off guard when a barrier was placed around them with the two onnas outside of it. He snarled and glared at the monk.
"I had to do it. They tend to get a little out of control," Miroku explained. Suddenly they heard the clash of metal and turned to watch the show.
