Child from the Past

Not too far from Inuyasha's forest stood two figures. Both looking as if they were in deep thought but were in fact very aware of their surroundings. One of these figures was the regal Lord of the Western land, Sesshomaru. Standing slightly behind him stood his most trusted soldier, General Zuko. He like Sesshomaru-sama was a dog demon but where his lord was a silver dog demon he was a black dog demon. He had long black hair with a slight wave to it with shocking green eyes which were clouded with sadness and pain. His clothes consisted of a black kimono top, bottom and boots which were the same style of Sesshomaru. For armor he wore only a chest pate and like Sesshomaru he had his black tail over his shoulder.

A gust of wind brought the familiar scent of jasmine to Zuko's nose. Remembering the only person who had this unique scent he turned towards the scents origin. Sesshomaru noticed Zukos sudden movement and turned around to face him and asked "What is it Zuko?" When he did not answer he raised one elegant eyebrow at Zukos odd behavior. Suddenly on high alert he looked around the clearing but could not sense any other aura but that of his own and Zukos.

"Milord do you smell that?" Zuko asked while turning to face Sesshomaru. The emotionless lord turned his nose up and inhaled the rare scent of jasmine. "It can't be her Zuko. She was captured and killed 50 years ago."

"But what if it is? I can't just leave her there by herself." About to cry he turned from his lord. With a sigh Sesshomaru finally said "Very well. We shall go see if it is her. It seems as though the scent is coming from that mutt's forest. Come" With that said they headed toward the scent of jasmine.

They followed the scent until they came upon Inuyasha and his group. But there was another strange human with him. The two hid in the shadows and watched the interactions.

"Wench I thought I told you to fix me some food." Inuyasha screamed in the strange female's face, while she stood unfazed by it.

"Yes you did. But since you are not my mate, pup or pack member I don't see a reason for me to." She said in a voice much like Sesshomaru.

"Inuyasha I don't think you should be so cruel to Lady Yumi." Said the monk with the wind tunnel in his hand. After hearing her name Zuko froze with a look of disbelief on his face. "Could it be possible, milord?" He said so low that only Sesshomaru could hear. But he was in shock as well. When his lord didn't answer he turned back to inspect the woman more closely.

She stood at an average height for a female. Long, straight, black hair fell freely down her back. She had tanned skin from being in the sun. Had cold, hard, green eyes which were extremely weird for a human to have. She wore an odd kimono like the other strange human but was totally black and she had black boots.

Zuko was sure that this was her. And with only the monk and half-breed there he and his lord could easily capture the girl without any problems.
