Smoke was rising over the Tinka Mountain. "What is that" Sess asked, as Naraku and he walked throw one of the villages! "I am not quite sure! Do you want to go see?" ~*~*~* When they reach the top of the mountain a smoldering ash colored village was left in the ruins! They walked thru, pushing burnt bodies to the side as they cleared a path! They entered a temple! (Or what was left of it) "Seems no one is left alive" naraku said as they left the temple. Sess froze. "What is it?" Sess turned back and stared at the temple! "Someone is in there" A faint crying could be heard! He entered a room were the roof had fallen in and under the rubble was a small hand! Sess touched it and it grabbed hold! "Something is under here!" he said as he began to clean and move the rubble! Naraku stood back and watched him! After lifting up the last pieces of the roof there laid a small child! "Leave her Sess we don't have time to deal with petty humans" Sess stood but bent down again looking at the child's head. "Look she is a Hanyou" "What?" Sess scoped up the child and brought her to Naraku. "Hummm we might be able to use her." Sess smiled as the child snuggled into his arms. "Wow Sess! That is the first time I have seen you smile in a long time!" ~*^~*^~*^~*^~*^~*^~*^~*^~*^~*^~*^~*^~*^~*^~*~^*^~*~^*~^ Back at the casual. The child lay under Sess's watch. She opened her eyes! "Were am I?" she asked is a faint voice! "I can tell you." Sess said as he moved closer to the child! She set up! "You need to me care full! You have been thru a lot!" Sess said as he helped the child! "You look like..." She fell back and passed out! "Hummm" "Has she woken up?" Naraku said as Sess walked in to the room "Yes, a little but fell back asleep!" "Good when she is strong enofe bring her to me. I have plains!" Naraku said as the sat next to the window not look up! "What are you going to do?" Sess asked trying to hide the wary in his voice! "Now don't tell me the grate Sess has developed feelings! Hahahahahah" Naraku sed as Sess left the room! ~*^~*^~*^~*^~*^~*^~*^~*^~*^~*^~*^~*^~*~^*~^*~^*~^*~^*~^*~^*~^*~^ The child was sitting in a corner when Sess entered the room. "So your awake, good Naraku wants to speak with you." Sess said as he handed the child a wet sponge so she could clean up. When she was clean and have new close Sess lead her to where Naraku was waiting. "So she is a wake and clean, good" Naraku said with out looking at ether of them. The child clung the Sess. "What is she doing Naraku?" Sess asked a little confused! "I think she has taken a liking to you. Come her child I won't hurt you." The child looked up to Sess. He gave her a little push in Narakus direction. Naraku stood and looks at the child! "What is you name child?" The child was quite. "Ok let's try another. How old are you?" Once again the child was quite. "Sess has she talked to you yet?" Naraku asked starting to get frosted. "Yes she has!" "Well thin get her to do it again!" Sess walked up to the little girl. "You don't have to be afraid you know!" "I know" the child squeaked "What is your name?" Sess asked trying to sound as soothing as possible. "Yukana!" "Ok Yukana, how old are you?" "Seven" "Good. What else do you want to know Naraku?" "What happened?" Naraku answered not looking at him. "Some people came and said my father had some of the jewel" Naraku stood and walked over to Yukana. "Did your father?" "I don't know maybe, when ever some one would come in he would send me to my room" "Hummm.." "What are you thinking Naraku?" Sess asked being a little defensive! "Yukana, can you please leave Sess and me alone fore a little wile? You may go get some food if you wish!" Yukana shook her head and bows before she left. "What are you thinking Naraku?" "We can use this child once we train her a little." "How so?" "Lest just say the jewel shards are soon going to be closer than we think!" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~* Well that is the first part of my story! I hope you enjoy. PLEASE reply~Ryoko
