Chapter 2

We had set off almost immediately after the bath.

"There's nothing we have to prepare…?" I trailed off walking steadily next to my brother.

"No."

The silence stretched for an innumerable amount of time.

"So…." Now I wasn't much for talking but I still had unanswered questions about this 'adventure', and starting conversation with the Ice King was almost impossible, but I was ready to give it a try. "How exactly do we get there?"

Sesshomaru gave me a bland sidelong glance. "You should know."

I rolled my eyes up to the sky, thinking hard. The only time I clearly remembered seeing the underworld was when I had been possessed by his father's evil sword. Said sword had then revived a dead man who had killed my parents and tried to convince me to send the living world into Hell. The only reason this was not the reality of the present was because Sesshomaru and I had defeated it. Together. Wait. A terrible thought entered his mind.

"Sesshomaru...don't tell me you brought Sounga back to the world of the living..." I whispered horrified.

Sesshomaru abruptly stopped walking. I ran around so I could face him.

"Inuyasha..."Sesshomaru's lip curled up in a half snarl, and then I suddenly felt a throb of pain and a lump forming on the side of my head."You. Are. An. Idiot." Sesshomaru swiftly side stepped around me and continued on his way.

I stood, momentarily shocked, before running to catch up. "You bastard! It was a legitimate question. It's the only way that makes since..." As I reached his side I had an insane urge to just punch him in his arm. I thought my suspicions had been well thought out and valid.

I glanced at Sesshomaru again; he seemed to be momentarily confused as to which way to continue going, and they slowly came to a stop.

Sesshomaru glanced right, then left, then right again.

"We're lost aren't we?" I declared.

He glanced over, annoyance in his eyes, "We are not lost Inuyasha, it has merely been a long time since I have traveled the path to Hell."

I looked around. Currently we were standing on a cliff, to left lay a thick forest, and to the right hills that eventually led to the ocean. There truly were not that many choices.

I looked at Sesshomaru; he had his fingertips pressed to his temple, obviously trying to recall the way to our destination.

I heaved a sigh, and sat down to rest. I felt Sesshomaru do the same.

"Why is this so difficult for you to remember?"I asked, truly curious. I knew Sesshomaru had an amazing memory.

"I don't know. My mother could have..," He paused searching for the right word," blurred the path from my memory. I have only visited her in her home domain once, and that was before you became stuck to that tree."

Silence took over once again as we both fell into deep thought. Twenty minutes passed. Twenty turned into forty, forty to an hour and so on. It wasn't long before we were watching the sun set.

"Perhaps we should make camp?" I suggested.

"I agree." And with that we stood and walked over to a clearing not too far from the path they had been traveling earlier.

I prepared a fire and settled down; thinking.

"Are you cold Inuyasha?" The questioned startled me from my thoughts.

"Not really."

"Then why start a fire?"

"Just habit...I guess." I glanced sidelong at my brother."Tell me what you remember of how to get there."

Sesshomaru looked up and just stared at me for a long moment.

"Uuhh..." I rocked side to side. Sesshomaru still stared.

"Hello?" I waved my hand in front of his face. He still stared. I leaned into his personal space, "Are you dead?!" I hollered.

Sesshomaru blinked, "Inuyasha, I am not deaf. Stop being an insolent brat."

I rolled my eyes and gave him a meaningful look -that said answer my question- before returning to my original position. I waited patiently for him to start the trip down memory lane.

"I will tell you what I remember about the path to Hell." Sesshomaru began.
