/Why?/ Alia sat up unable to sleep. She tried but she couldn't get the thoughts out of her head. /Why was I chosen out of millions./ She walked away from the camp and sat by the river. Kilala sat by her to keep her company, but she suddenly turned around and started hissing at the trees.
"Kilala? whats wrong?" She lloked up and noticed a figure in the shadows. "Inu Yasha?" "How dare you call me that half breed." growled a voice. "Show your self... Who are..." She droped her sentance when she saw the face whom the voice belonged to. "Sesshomaru!" she gave a sqeek. her eyes widened.
"You are Alia?" He glared down at her. When she nodded he smirked. But before he could speak, a shadow lept from the trees right at her. Alia fell back and hit her head. Naraku swiftly picked her up, but then herd Inu Yasha coming. He looked down at her and then looked at Sesshomaru.
"Take care of her." He shoved Alia to him. "She will be of use to me later." He dissapeared leaving Sesshomaru with the girl.
"Sesshomaru!!" Inu Yasha yelled running towards him. Before Inu Yasha could act, Sesshomaru lifted on a red cloud and dissapeared.
"Damn it!" Inu Yasha muttered. Kagome caught up and stared at the sky. "Alia..." She turned to Inu Yasha. "We got to get her back!" She exclaimed.
"Hurry! Get on!" Kagome climbed on his back as Sango and Miroku ran after.

"mmm... Uh my head. What..." She stopped and felt the bandages under her fingers. "Who..."
"It was me. I bandaged your head." Sesshomaru walked into the room with a cloth and some water that steamed.
"But, why would you help me?" He took the bandages off and, dapped the wound with the now wet rag. His face seemed more gental to her now.
"Because, couldn't leave you there like that." He got closer as he rewraped the bandages which made Alia blush.
"Umm... Thank y..." She stopped as she heard a bang. It was another demon wanting a challange from Sesshomaru.
"Fight me and give up the girl!" The demon raored.
"You can tell you master Naraku that I will not." Alia at that moment stumbled out of the hut. She now noticed it to be a desserted village. "Get back inside. Now!" Sesshomaru had his back turned, (Which you shouldn't do in a fight.) And resieved a hard blow to his back. He started to fall before he struck the demon down. Alia caught him and fell to her knees herself. The demon exploded and Alia quickly got Sesshomaru inside.
"You'll be ok." She wispered as he opened his eyes. He got to his feet and smiled. She had never seen him smile, and she couldn't help but smile too.

It was only a few days and they were getting along really well. He had taken her to many villages to keep her from Naraku's demons. But when she walked in the room he was in, she looked worried at his expresion.
"Whats wrong?" She knelt beside him.
"You know you will have to return to your friends. But as long as your in this era, I will keep close to you."
"Why hide?" She looked away.
"They will not except me, and I still want the Tetsigea. but I want to keep close to you in the proccess." He took her hand.
"I can convince them. But the Tetsigea doesn't as important to you anymore." She smiled at him, and he smiled back but gave her a look that made her understand.
"I see... Inu yasha will atempt to kill you whenever posible." He then became alert and soon she felt jewel shards coming towards them. Kagome's voice rang out.
"Alia! Where are you?!" She called.
"Hide... this may help you find me and I hope to see you again soon..." She handed him her ring which was on a chain. He kissed her hand as she left for outside. "I'm here... I'm ok..." She was glomped by Kagome and huged by Sango and Shippo.
"I'm sorry if I woried you..." She looked at Inu Yasha. "What?"
"What happened to Sesshomaru?" He looked at her suspiciously.
"I... I don't know..." She lied which seemed to work.
"Damn... that basterd." Inu yasha cursed.
"For get it Inu Yasha. We have to get going." Alia turned and smiled in Sesshomaru's direction.
"What is it?" Kagome asked her.
"Nothing... just looking at the village on last time." She turned and walked beside Kagome talking about this and that all the while, thinking of Sesshomaru.
