Sesshomaru came to a peaceful place where he needed to clear his mind. There was a cave with a huge waterfall. The sound of the waterfall calmed him so. He placed his hand under the loud, powerful, waterfall then touched his face. It was cold and wet. He looked out and made sure no one was around, there wasn't. He started to undress and jump in the water. He stood there thinking about Kagome's friend, Yuki. Why is she another acceptance of my cold heart? My mind was clouded with thoughts of her. Soon, he stepped into the cave.
" My Lord, are you done yet?" The imp asked.
" What is it, Jakken?" Sesshomaru said as he appeared behind the imp.
"Rin...She's wondering-- She wanted to ask you something....my lord..." The imp said.
" Lord Sesshomaru, when are we going to see Lady Yuki? I want to apologize to her." Rin questioned.
" Why would you even apologize Rin? " The imp spoke out of term.
" She probably didn't like it that I called her Mom. I want to say sorry and maybe she will return to us, right? Lord Sesshomaru."Rin inquired.
Sesshomaru started to walk away then his three companions follow behind him.
" Jakken, come on, or Lord Sesshomaru going to leave you," Rin said.
***********************************************************************************
Everyone was preparing for the night and to camp out in the woods when suddenly a gust of wind cause everyone to duck and cover their eyes.
" What do you want?" InuYasha asked angrily.
" I have a message from Naraku." Kagura said and stood on a branch." He wishes for just the reincarnation of Kiyomi to come to Naraku castle alone within 24 hours, if not, well InuYasha you wouldn't want the truth to come out." She had an evil smirk on her face.
With that, she left on her white feather.
" This doesn't make any sense." Kagome spoke." Yuki is weak and helpless
" You know that this is a trap, right?" InuYasha applied.
" The question isn't why he wants Yuki but what is he trying to accomplish," Miroku added.
" Considering the fact, that she's the reincarnation of a half-goddess in all," Shippo commented.
" What are you guys talking about?" Yuki asked as she stood there but her voice could not be heard since everyone was talking over each other.
" No matter what happens, I will protect you," InuYasha reassured.
" Can someone please tell me what's going on?" Yuki asked.
" Truth be told, you are the reincarnation of a goddess from fifty years ago name Goddess and he using what makes you vulnerable to be able to obtain those spiritual powers of a goddess." Miroku tried to explain but the truth was he didn't know much about this goddess either.
"I see why that Kagome said that I should go back to my world but I just want to stay here.' it was not too much of a surprise considering that she's in a different world. It is shocking but still believable. She stared into the flames of the campsite with only questions leaving her mind. Like, why me? What spiritual powers? I'm just an ordinary girl, right? when she was ready for answers everyone was gone besides the half-demon.
" Was I that deep into a gaze? Where did the others go?" Yuki asks.
" They went to get firewood and I'm here watching over you," InuYasha answered.
" It takes four people to get wood? It seems unbelievable "Yuki said jokingly.
" Why y-you!" InuYasha jumped up and snapped but when they made eye contact he become flustered.
After that, it was this awkward form of silence. A strange image of Sesshomaru popped into her head. Her heavy heart became a little bit at ease.
Kagome walked near the bushes returning with logs for the campfire then paused her footsteps overhearing their conversation.
" Yuki, there's something I need to tell you." InuYasha broke a conversation into existence.
" What is it, InuYasha?" Yuki asked.
" I couldn't stop thinking about you and I don't want to spend another moment without you by my side" InuYasha pulled her into a tight embrace with a small squeeze." Don't go near Sesshomaru ever again."
As Yuki stared into the brown reflection of his eyes. She saw Kagome in the background then slowly moved back. She wanted to give him an answer but couldn't and decided to change the conversation." InuYasha, why do you look human?"
" Well, I'm only half-demon." InuYasha spoke." You can't rely on me on the night of the New Moon."
" Does this happen to all half-demons?" Yuki asked.
"Lose their demon powers for a short period." He replied.
" Guys! I'm back with the firewood" Kagome raised her hand and walked towards them, laughing awkwardly.
" I just woke up not too long ago."Yuki's quickly removed her hand away from InuYasha.
Then the others arrived, Kagome was depressed. InuYasha acted the way as if he was with Kikyo. Miroku, Shippo, and Sango were the only ones that haven't hinted anything.
" Yuki, are you going somewhere?" Shippo said.
" I'm going to meet Naraku. There's something I have to see" Yuki answered.
" It's too dangerous!" Shippo exclaimed." You will get killed."
Yuki took off before Shippo was able to wake up everybody. She walked around lost not knowing where to go. She entered the gate and found herself in a courtyard.
" Naraku is unable to connect between both worlds." Kagura spoke behind Yuki.
"What is it that you want?" Yuki asked.
" Please come this way, Naraku would like to meet you properly," Kagura informed.
[ Campsite]
" What the hell do you mean Shippo?" InuYasha raised his voice angrily." Damn, out of all nights, it has to be tonight."
" Calm down, InuYasha." Kagome said.
How the hell am I supposed to calm down after I confessed InuYasha thought to himself.
" Let's split into groups, it'll be faster," Miroku suggested.
" It'll take the high ground with Kirara," Sango said and jumped on Kirara's back as she transformed then flew into the air.
Everyone split into two groups and searched the area rapidly.[ (Shippo and Miroku)( Sango and Kirara)( InuYasha and Kagome)]
" InuYasha, can I ask you something?" Kagome questioned, as rode on the half-breed back. Even in his human form, InuYasha was still fast.
" Go ahead," InuYasha answered.
" Do you have feelings for Yuki?" Kagome asked.
Dammit, what am I supposed to say? Sorry, Kagome, I like your friend or why can't I have all three He bickered with himself.
" How about, are you still in love with me?" She asked another one.
" Stop talking about nonsense Kagome." InuYasha said." Can you sense any jewel shards nearby? We need to find her?"
