Rosie hater: Thanks to Kags21 for reminding me about this fic. Sorry it's been so long. I've gotten sidetracked with other fics. ^^;; Anywho, here you go.

Ch.2 –They meet

Naraku's Pov

So here he was, waiting for her to arrive. He trimmed his hair and pulled it back into a low ponytail, he wore clean new robes that were a pastel blue and had brought his eye color down to a near-black brown with only a slight tinge of red. For all extensive purposes he looked human to anyone who would just glace at him. He hoped that she wouldn't mind the red in his eyes, being a demon it was something that he just couldn't part with. He had changed everything else in hopes that it would be enough. He waited in silence by a tree on a hill overlooking the village he had decided to visit to acquire new robes at. He had 'accidentally' let a few demons out to terrorize the town, hoping it would attract a certain miko. As he looked over at the horizon he couldn't help the small smile of victory as it lit across his face at the sight of his desired miko making her way towards the village below. It was funny how she tried to blend in when she was made to stand out. She had changed from her futuristic clothing to some more time period correct robes. But her miko garb wasn't the ordinary red and white, for the red was replaced with a dark blue. Her hair was pulled back in a dark blue strip of fabric with a few strands falling loosely to frame her face. –They're trying to make her seem more like Kikyo. But she's still letting a little bit of herself show.- He mused as he watched her approach the village that was producing screams as some weak youkai chased some of the villagers. He slowly made his way down the hill, watching her every move. His eyes never left her form as she purified all the demons in one swipe, letting her powers flow out around her, the holy flames wrapping around the frightened villagers to calm and ease them as the demons around them disintegrated into dust on the wind. He was nearing her as she bowed to the village elders and greeted them. And he couldn't help but stop to listen to her melodius voice.

"I am sorry I could not get here sooner. But it was a far journey from Edo." She spoke to them in a soft voice as she stood before them.

"No Lady Miko, please let us thank you for coming to save us. Those demons have been killing our livestock and terrorizing our families for the past week. Please stay the night. We will provide you with food, drink and shelter until you wish to leave."

"That's not really necessary, but if you know where I can find a hot spring then I will be delighted."

"Yes Lady Miko. We have a hot springs nearby, I'm sorry that it's very simple." The village head starts to lead her to one side of the village."

"I do not need lavish things. I only require a bath." She smiles, causing everyone around her to smile in turn.

Naraku slowly, 'accidentally', bumped into her as she passed by him. "Oh, my apologies Lady Angel."

She stopped for a few minutes and took in his appearance, eyeing him as he silently held his breath to see if she'd see through his disguise. "What is your name?"
