Well, it's been officially two years since me and my best friend EVER met. And I was thinking, "Well what the hay!" and decided to dedicate a story to her. I know how much she loves her Sesshy'kun we've even RPed with Sesshy and Hiei. And I was thinking, "Hey...I never really asked how they first got together!" So now...This will be dedicated to the time before the two became mates and had two beautiful twin pups.

--

She loves him more then anything in the world, He keeps rejecting her. She wants to know why he's so cold. Her sister hasn't talked to her for years and now she's suddenly back? And why are sudden storms brewing out of no where?

"Why are you like this!" screamed a voice to the back of the retreating Western lands lord. He slowly looked over at the neko Youkai with that same unemotional cold look.

"Go away" He said as he began walking away from her again.

Bright emerald green eyes stayed locked onto his retreating form flashing with numerous emotions at once. She covered her eyes with her right arm for a moment trying to restrain her emotions. She breathed in and out a few times slowly. She finally let her arm drop and looked back to where Sesshomaru once stood.

She didn't understand why he was so cold, so angry, and so hateful towards everyone. She wanted to find out what was wrong, wanted to comfort him in what ever he was feeling that was making him so negative. A silent sigh escaped her as she wrapped her black cat tail around her waist turned and walked off.

Sesshomaru stood over a cliff with that same unemotional and cold look as he watched random creatures run around below him in the clearing. The only light was of the full moons rays, which was directly behind him and if one looked it be enormous.

His mind trailed back to the neko he kept running into every now and then. A slight scowl laced his features as he seen sudden movement. Animals scurried around frantically disappearing into the lining trees as a black cat suddenly barreled out of the bushes and attacked one.

He didn't understand why she hunted in that form; it was always a nuisance in changing and then changing back. Humans thought it was just as simple as snapping a finger, but there was always a tinge of pain when a demon morphed into their animal beast form the bones moving and shifting, even growing larger. It didn't hurt as much changing back into the humanoid form for some reason though. He hadn't quite figured that out yet. Maybe it was because the bones replaced to their original spots or something.

He watched her for a moment before turning and silently leaving.

Anika's ear swiveled back as she heard the soft padding of feet on the cliff above. She looked up licking the blood of the sides of her mouth to catch a small glimpse of retreating silver before it disappeared she staid silent for a moment before she continued to eat her midnight snack.

InuYasha looked up from his musing hearing Sango and Kagome walking back from their bathing and stood up.

"Hey InuYasha!" Kagome greeted with a grin as she stretched her arms above her head.

"Feh…." was his reply as he looked around. Something didn't feel right and the wind had shifted to the opposite direction. Miroku woke up with a sudden gasp with a startled look.

"Houshi-sama?" Sango asked worriedly. Kagome looked at him in concern.

"Stop moving!" InuYasha suddenly commanded with a snarl that scared everyone, "Someone's coming….and it isn't anyone good" He growled softly jumping out of the tree and landing beside Kagome who jumped slightly.

"It's not that we have to worry about," Kagome said as she looked up at the sky seeing a flash of blue lightning.

Sesshomaru stopped walking as he seen a sudden flash of blue zigzag through the sky. He looked up with a scowl.

"Rain?" He questioned. It was too sudden for his liking. He would have smelt it hours before it would have arrived.

He had made it back to where Jaken and Rin were right when more lightening shot across the sky again. Something was coming and it wasn't anything good. He suddenly felt pressure on his leg and looked down at Rin who was latched onto his leg slightly, whimpering.

"Rin…." He asked in an almost worried voice. She looked up at him with big wet eyes; scared.

"Rin has a funny feeling and it makes Rin want to throw up," she whimpered again. He scowled and looked back to the sky.

Jaken jumped up at the sound of loud thunder and Rin squeaked in fright tightening her grip on Sesshomaru's leg. Sesshomaru bent down and picked up the frightened girl before he continued walking.

Rin squeaked as thunder boomed loudly again and buried her face into his tail.

"Rin…" Sesshomaru said calmly, "Don't be scared…" For some reason he hated smelling her fright it just irritated the hell out of him.

She calmed slightly and fell silent. He finally made it to a cave setting Rin down right as sudden rain hit and hit hard it did. He watched it for a moment, there would be no fire tonight for little Rin. Ah-Un shook himself slightly before laying down Rin running over to him and curling into his side with a yawn. Jaken just plopped down and went back to sleep.

Anika looked up hearing a sudden crack of thunder, "What the…." She muttered to herself as she became alert. She had been taking a bath after her feast to relax and to think of things.

She got out and pulled on her dark blue hakama's and silver haori after her undershirt. She looked at the sky as she tied on her dark red sash that had gold lining the edges. She had a weird feeling and that was never good, not one that wanted to make a demon puke.

She slid her sword into her sash before taking off. She ran for a little while until she suddenly heard, "Wind scar!" and seen a blast coming towards her from the corner of her eyes.

"What the hell!" She shouted as she ran to the side but unfortunately the blast nicked across her shoulder and she snarled clutching the wound.

InuYasha suddenly came into view and she blew up.

"WHAT'S YOUR DAMN PROBLEM MUTT!" she screamed at him.

He blinked in confusion before snarling, "Now is not the time to be running around!"

"Who died and made you lord!" She shouted at him looking at her wound as the others ran into view.

"What'd you do now InuYasha?" Kagome groaned looking at Anika's wound.

"Men are all the fucking same!" Anika snarled furiously. Oh she was just in a bad mood, a very bad mood indeed.

"Anika?" Kagome asked worriedly, she never showed so much anger before. She scowled, "What's wrong?" She questioned.

Anika looked at her for a moment before sighing, "Nothing Kagome'chan..." She turned back to her wound and found that it was slowly healing, but the scent of blood would draw out demons she didn't want to mess with.

"Stupid dogs...with their stupid idiocy and their stupid attacks!" She grumbled.

"Hey!" InuYasha protested, "I heard that!" he shouted in a huff.

"I don't care..." she muttered as she looked about her black tail swishing slightly, "There's something amidst about this storm..."

"I know that much..." InuYasha said right as it started to down pour. They sighed as lightning cracked again.

"We should find some shelter!" Anika shouted to them over the thunder. They nodded in agreement and they began to run in search of shelter. Anika skidded to a stop causing InuYasha to slam into her sending them rolling. She lay there twitching.

"Dogs..." She growled. He huffed and got up shaking the water off. He suddenly realized they were in a cave.

"Um..." Anika said almost stuttering as she caught a familiar scent just behind her along with a human girl and a dragon.

"Um what wench?" InuYasha shouted really irritated at the moment ringing out his cloths. She didn't dare turn around.

"I think..." She began only to have Kagome appear scowling the two.

"Would you two cut it out!" She accused.

"Oi! I didn't do anything!" InuYasha protested.

"You BOTH are so oblivious..." She sighed ringing the water out of her hair.

"What do you mean?" Kagome asked in confusion.

There was a sudden growl of warning. "That's what I mean..." She sighed ignoring the growl and walking past the two.

"Hey wait..." InuYasha said turning around. "Sesshomaru!" He snarled furiously.

"Get out" Sesshomaru snarled furiously. His brother just really set him off sometimes.

"What are you three fighting over now..."came another voice. They looked to see Sango trekking in Miroku right behind with Kilila and Shippo.

"Um...We can't stay here..." Anika muttered crossing her arms.

"To hell we aint! He doesn't own this cave." InuYasha shouted pointing back at his brother who glared.

"Unlike you InuYasha, I have...kids to take care of, I'm not about to get into a fight about who's cave belongs to who" She growled walking away from them.

"You're just scared!" Inuyasha called after her bound and determined to stay there. She stopped right outside the cave and looked up then back at Inuyasha, "Yes...I'm deathly afraid of that man...because he's the only one that can truly hurt me..."

Sesshomaru was silent. She spoke as if he wasn't even there. She was ignoring him. It was unlike her to ignore his presence. He shrugged it off, why would he care? He turned and glared at his brother.

"Get out mutt before I force you" He snarled.

Anika shook her head, "Guys this really isn't worth our time...I have kids to go to and y'all have...what ever it is y'all are after," she mused.

"And two, I'm getting freaking soaked here! Now get your scrawny asses moving!" she shouted. Kagome laughed and trotted over to her, as did Sango and Miroku.

InuYasha growled, "You're gonna let him scare you away!" He snarled.

Anika smirked, "No...But I'm gonna scare you away if you don't get your ass moving!" She growled. He huffed, "You're just a mangy cat!" He grumbled walking past her. She chuckled following him.

"You know you want me" He tripped over his own foot causing everyone to laugh.

"TO HELL I DO!" He screamed lunging at her. She giggled and merely continued walking, "Or is it...you're jealous because I have men at my beck and call while I just plain out ignore you..." she mused taping a finger on her chin.

Sesshomaru watched them go, Anika teasing his brother the entire way there. He grunted and closed his eyes.

"Stupid mutt..." he muttered as he slipped into a light sleep.
