KPOV

It's been two years since the jewel has been completed. Everyone was living happily. Miroku finally decided to stop his perverted ways and ask very persistently for Sango's hand in marriage, it took a few months but she finally accepted. They had a beautiful wedding, Sango was glowing and Miroku couldn't keep his hands or eyes off her. It was good to see Sango happy for the first time since Kohaku was finally put him to rest. Inuyasha was now with Kiyko, mated. I got over Inu a long time ago. It did hurt to know he chose her over me, but some things you just have to come to terms with. So I did. We all live in Kaede's village. I'm not sure why the jewel kept me here. I did everything I was supposed to do. I had no one here who wants me. Heck, even Shippo went to go live with his own kind to learn and one day find a mate. There is nothing here for me, so why am I here? 

Today's my 20th birthday. Sango said she wanted to throw the party tonight so everyone's headed to her hut. She said she wanted it to be later in the evening. 

 I look at the gorgeous kimono Kaede made me, It's mint green and light pink. I start to put the layers on and it fits like a dream! I brush my hair straight. It's down to my butt. Two years without a haircut will do that to you. It's thick, healthy and raven black, which brings out my blue eyes. Weird thing is I have yet to see another person with blue eyes. I check myself out in the hand held mirror I brought from home. Good enough. Sango's hut is only two away from mine. Inu's is five away and I'm fine with that. I don't wanna hear what they do at night. Horn dogs.

I start to make my way to Sango's. I walk to the door and knock. Sango answers the door with a huge smile on her face. I couldn't help but smile too, it's infectious. 

"The birthday girl is here! " She yells as we hug.

I walked into the hut and gasp. " Guys you didn't have to do all this!" I say shocked.

Everyone was there! Koga, Inu ,Kikyo ,Kaede, Myoga, Totosai, even my not so little Shippo. The entire inside was decorated. Long peices of paper dyed and hung almost like streamers. Table clothes hung from the ceiling in front of the fire place that said 'Happy Birthday Kagome'. Like a banner, my eyes start to water.

"Kagome what's wrong? Don't you like it?" Sango asked with concern in her eyes.

"OH SANGO I LOVE IT!! Thank you so much. This means a lot to me!" I yell and hug the life out of her. 

"Ka...Kags....air....air!!!" She gasps. I quickly let go with a blush.

"Sorry San! I'm just so surprised! Everyone's here and the place looks great. I didn't think you would go all out just for me!"

"Kags, your special to all of us and deserve only the best. We all pitched in. I can't take all the credit." 

I looked at everyone smiling. " Thank you all so much. You guys are the best! GROUP HUG!"

We all go into a hug. I gasp "WHO TOUCHED MY ASS?" I yell, looking right at Miroku. He points to Koga . Koga just gets a big cheesy smile. 

"Sorry Kags, it's just so big, I couldn't help myself. Have you seen it? Plus your my woman. I can touch you wherever I please." He says in a matter of fact kind of way.

I hit my palm to my forehead. "KOGA HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO TELL YOU!! I am not, shall not , and will never be your woman. Please for the dear love of Kami get that threw your head! " I yell and smack him in the head.

"Whatever you say Kags, one day you will come to your senses." He brushes it off like it's nothing. 

Before I can answer about how he is an idiot, Shippo pops up in my view. He is now as tall as me. His hair is to his collar bone. his biuld is muscular, his eyes hold a little wisdom in them, showing me exactly how much he has grown in two years.

"WHAT HAVE THEY DONE TO MY BABY!" I hug him tightly and kiss him all over his face.

" Aw, come on mom! You're embarrassing me." He tries to pull back but I hold him tighter until he returns the hug. 

"Dinner is ready; everyone come sit." Sango yells from the kitchen. I release Shippo and walk to the dining room. 

We have deer and rabbit with potatoes on the side. The food was so delicoius that we barley talked the entire time. Everyone was content to sit in a comfortbale silence. I did notice however that Inu barley ate anything, thats so unlike him. He is usually the first one done looking for seconds. Something is up with him and i bet Kikyo has to do with it.

Everyone is practially done their food so we all clean our plates and go to the living room.

"Sango that was just amazing. Thank you for such a great birthday. " 

" It's not over yet! Present time!" She pulls out a pile of neatly wrapped gifts 

" Aw guys, you didn't have to. But I'm glad you did! Bring them on!" I exclaim happily.

Sango hands me the first present. It says from Totosai. It was a long magnificently handcrafted sword with a beautiful blue hilt.

"Wow Totosai, this is gorgeous. You made this just for me? " I ask in complete awe. 

He just nodded. "You'll need it soon." He murmured. I decide to let that little comment go till later. 

Next I get a gift from Shippo. I open it and it's a beautiful jade comb to put in my hair.

"Shippo this is beautiful. It must have cost a fortune! Thank you!" I hug him and he replies "Only the best for you Momma" .

Next one I got was from Inu and Kikyo, Who I realized still hasn't talked this entire time...wonder what that is about...anyways I open the gift and smile. It was a long bow: it almost looked like it was made of glass. It was smooth and cold.

" Wow guys this is really great...is it an antique or...?" I ask smiling warmly at them.

Kikyo answered " It's actually a miko bow, u can channel your energy through it and create energy arrows".

My eyes go wide as I look back down at the smooth pristine bow. "Thank you both so much. It's amazing." They both just nod and Inu refuses to look me in the eyes. I'll have to talk to him later. 

Next was Koga's present. This I have got to see. I open the package, and my jaw drops as I hold up some type of feudal lingerie, a silk and lace see threw dark blue night gown. Sweat drops from my forehead as i laugh awkwardly.

" For when you are my woman. That'll look great on you." He says smugly. Everything is see through fabrics except the breast, which has silk covering it.

" Thanks Koga....you shouldn't have....I guess my husband will appreciate this one day." I drop it back in the package. I look up to see I'm not the only one with a blush.

Sango hands me the present from her and Miroku, who has been very well behaved may I say. I look down at the small package, open it and look up at her with questioning eyes. I hold up the little outfit. It was various shades of blue...but it was for a baby.

Sango cleared her throat " For when you start your own family. It's for your firstborn son. " I didn't really know how to reply so I just smiled and thanked them.

" Look Kags they got our unborn son his first outfit , thanks guys!" Koga boasted. 

"WILL YOU EVER GET IT THREW YOUR THICK SKULL!! IT'S NEVER GOING TO HAPPEN!!" I scream while hitting Koga in the head. Persistent little wolf!

I eventually stopped attacking him. "Thank you everyone for a great time and all the wonderful presents. I really couldn't have asked for better friends." I smile and hug them all individually.

"Hey Totosai, can I talk to you real quick outside?" He nods and follows me out. 

"What did you mean about the sword? You said I would need it later, what did you mean?" I question the big eyed old man. 

"You will need it. Its name is within you. But you won't know till later....hmm not too long from now but soon. Yes very soon. When it happens go find Sesshomaru. He can help you. It's in your destiny. Make sure he helps you. No other can help. " He says scratching his head, then his chin. 

I look down trying to make sense of what he was saying. But nothing this man ever says makes sense.

" But I don't understand... "  I look up and he is gone. " Totosai? " Where did that old crazy man go? I wasn't done with him.

"I know all . Go to Sesshomaru. He will help. Just make sure it's him." I hear him whisper. 

Sesshomaru? Was he crazy?! That guy will kill me just for looking his direction. Go seek him out. Yeah right! Crazy old man has finally lost all his marbles, every last one. Sesshomaru is hot as hell, but he is deadly too. Especially since he grew his other arm back. Those muscular arms, I wonder if his stripes go.....wait! No stop...Sesshomaru is bad....bad Kagome....but he's so dreamy.... no! Leave this for the dreams... those hot steamy dreams of his wet glistening body...God I need a boyfriend . 

I go back into Sango' s house. It's around 11:30, According to the crescent moon tonight. Everyone is packing up to go so I say my goodbyes.  I make Shippo to promise to come visit more.  I ask Inu if everything is okay and he just nods not looking in my eyes; Kikyo steps in front of him smiles[smiling] and says goodbye. I don't want to pry. He's not my business anymore, I let it go.I say goodbye to everyone and head back to my hut with my presents. I look at my watch to see it is in fact 11:55. Way past my bed time. I put my pajamas on and go lay on my futon.

I start to think of molten gold eyes and magenta stripes, strong arms and abs, Being held and feeling safe in a world that isn't.

I'm almost asleep when I get a pain in my stomach. I go to rub it but find I'm completely paralyzed. The burning in my stomach is worsening and spreading. All I can feel is fire. I try to scream but it's useless. After a few minutes I fall into a black haze of unconsciousness. This is it. I was meant to turn 20 and die. That was why I was kept here, To see all that I love one more time. I completed what the gods have chosen for me. Goodbye beautiful world. Here I come father , will u open the gates for your little girl?

So read and review! This is my first fic be easy! Next time :get a look into kagome unconscious state. Who she talks to and sees. Plus more but I don't want to give it away! Thx
