I decided that it needed a epilogue. It just didn't seem finished. So here It is.

Disclaimer: (crying) it's so sad...i want to own Inuyasha...but I don't...


Epilogue

A few weeks later Inuyasha and the group walked into the Western Castle. They had been invited by Kagome. They were all excited about seeing their friend again. Kagome came running out of the doors to greet her friends with Sesshoumaru walking right behind her. Miroku and Sango smiled at how happy she looked.

"Sango, Miroku, I missed you guys," Kagome hugged them both with a huge smile.

"We missed you too Kagome. How are you?" Sango said.

"I'm great," the miko said.

"You're being treated decently right Lady Kagome?" Miroku asked.

She smiled at her friend, "Of course Miroku. Sesshoumaru has been wonderful and so has everyone at the castle. Sesshoumaru's even teaching Shippo how to fight."

He smiled, "Good. I knew that Sesshoumaru was honorable and wouldn't hurt you but we worry about you."

"I know, Miroku. Come on in. You have to be hungry."

They all walked in. Inuyasha and Kikyo stayed in the back of the group.

When they were sitting at the dinner table Kagome asked her friends if anything new had happened recently.

"Well Miroku and I decided to finally get married," Sango said with a blush.

Miroku smiled, "We were waiting until you could attend."

Kagome cheered, "It's about time. Just let me know when. I can go, right Sesshoumaru?"

Sesshoumaru had to hold back a smile at his mates antics, "Yes."

The young miko cheered again.

"What about you Kagome?" Sango asked.

Kagome fidgeted a little and Sesshoumaru smirked.

"Have you guys heard the rumors about there being a Lady of the Western Lands now?" Kagome seemed to ask out of no where.

Inuyasha spoke for the first time, "Yes we have. So who's the unlucky girl."

Kagome glared at him and said, "I am."

Everyone looked at her in shock. Then Miroku and Sango smiled at her.

"I'm glad you're happy Kagome. Does this mean that you're Lord Sesshoumaru's mate now?" Sango asked her friend.

"Yes, I'll show you."

Kagome reached up and moved the collar on the left side of her shirt. Right their on the junction of her neck and shoulder was the bite mark that demons' gave their mates to show everyone that they belonged to them. Then she lifted her bangs out of the way and they saw the mark of the Western family, a blue crescent moon.

"What?!" Inuyasha shouted. "You can't be his mate."

"I can and I am," Kagome responded.

"Inuyasha," Sesshoumaru's voice was low and dangerous, "if you upset my mate I will make you suffer horribly."

Inuyasha's ears twitched and he calmed himself down, "Do you really love him?"

Kagome gave him a small smile, "Yes I do, Inuyasha."

Inuyasha sat there for a moment then said, "I hope you'll be happy then."

She looked at Sesshoumaru and when he nodded she got up and walked over to the hanyou. She wrapped her arms around him and said, "Inuyasha I don't want this to be good bye. I want to be your friend. I want you to be happy too. I want my children to know their uncle Inuyasha."

He smiled, "I wouldn't have it any other way."

Kagome looked over at Kikyo, "Truce."

Kikyo smiled and took Kagome's hand in hers, "Truce."

------------------------------------------------------------

A few months later they defeated Naraku and completed the sacred jewel. Sango and Miroku were married a month later and Kagome used the jewel to bring Kikyo back to life. Inuyasha and Kikyo were mates soon after that. Kagome decided that maybe love wasn't such a heartache after all.


There...that's the end...now that you've read it please review.
