Prologue

The same tears are always shed,

We will not realize what is most precious until we have lost it. -Reset by Ayaka Hirahara

Today was a normal day.

"Stupid dogs and their stupid keen sense of smell..." Kagome was currently being carried like a potato sack over Inuyasha's shoulder.

"Wasn't that hard, really. A human could've smelt you out."

"Are you implying that I stink?"

"Not implying, just merely stating a fact."

Kagome let out a frustrated yell and started pounding Inuyasha on the back. "You prick! Can't you ever be nice to me for once?" Inuyasha huffed in annoyance before dropping her on the ground.

"You have legs. Use 'em!"

Kagome's face turned red.

"Inuyasha..." He froze in his steps.

"SIT!" Boom. Dust. Curses.

... Well, as normal as it can get.

Cold, golden eyes stared into round innocent brown ones.

Neither blinked.

A grin broke out onto the girl's face.

Gold eyes narrowed.

"What is it, Rin?"

The little girl hugged the tall demon lord's legs.

"Rin loves Sesshomaru!"

Sesshomaru stayed quiet. The little girl smiled up at him and ran off into the field.

He watched as she picked flowers here and there, before turning to Ah-Un.

"Watch her." The two-headed dragon grunted before strolling over to Rin.

Sesshomaru took one last glance at Rin before taking off into the skies on his demonic cloud.

'Be safe, Rin...'

Somewhere in the eastern part of the lands, a fox demon was staring into a bowl of water. In the water was an image of Kagome.

Chuckling to himself, the fox stood up and narrowed his gleaming red eyes on the bowl.

"Kagome... what fun this will be!" The fox grinned and took off out of his den.

'My new toy!'

And so, it begins.
