A/N: I'm sorry this chapter was so short, I had some problems with my computer where my first draft of chapter 2 was deleted twice so I just wanted it to get finished and uploaded as soon as I could. I'm not to happy with it but the next chapter will be better I promise.

Also I own no Characters

His eyes flared in anger, his face stern and Kieko couldn't help herself but shutter a bit at the sight. "That is no answer." He said looking down at her, or maybe down on her.

He didn't look like the man she dreamed about. He scared her a bit to be truthful, but deep in her mind she felt that this was not who he was, this was a front. She stood up slowly and bowed in his direction.

"My name is Kieko Hayashi, thank you for saving me just now." As she looked up to smile she saw he was already making his way through the tall grass at the edge of the field. An urge made her fallow after him; she felt she needed to be by his side to help him.

She scoffed at herself as she felt the tension from his body a man like that didn't need help, if anything she'd need help from him. She silently scolded herself for thinking that, this was the same man in her dream who cried for her, who kissed her and whipped away the blood from her face- no that wasn't her.

He called out Rin not Kieko. All these feelings for someone she just met and who seemed to despise her for no reason confused her. She was weary and scared of him, but also she felt at ease and safe with him.

"Lord Sesshomaru! Lord Sesshomaru! Oh when you left so suddenly and me all by my lonesome I became frightened something was wrong." A high pitched annoying voice called out breaking her line of thought.

As she broke through the grass to the other side she saw the man from the back, walking away uncaring. His shoulders were heavy and his posture was strait, but somehow she could see how much of a front that was. She looked down a little embarrassed for knowing so much about him already, she was so damn confused.

Looking at his feet she saw a little bald green man running after him, with brown and green clothing on that resembled other styles she saw today. He was carrying a long staff one side an old man, the other a young woman. The faces looked so lifelike in the wood she startled a bit.

"Sesshomaru? Is that your name?" She asked her mouth moving on its own. As her hands came up and clamped over it she saw him turn slightly and the green man whirl around at high speed.

She let out a screech seeing his nose and mouth connect in a beak and his eyes so large and bugged they took up most of his face. He walked over to her frowning and eyed her up and down, as he walked around her in a circle she stiffened and watched him.

He scared her with his odd looks but she wasn't as afraid of him as the other man. With this one she felt like if he became to annoying she could just stomp on him or kick him. As the other man returned to walking a head she tried to follow him one more only to feel the staff hit her stomach stopping her in her tracks.

"Lord Sesshomaru, this girl smells like Lady Kagome, and Rin what are you-" the gold light she saw before was slashed right at the feet of the green man. Kieko looked up and shivered as she saw the man's face twisted into a snarl his eyes a shocking deep red.

A low growl escaped his lips and his fingers tightened around the hilt of his sword. His eyes not leaving the green man Kieko let out a small squeak of fear. As soon as she heard herself she tried to cram it back in, his eyes flashed up to hers and she jumped.

Slowly his face returned to normal and he stood up slowly turning around again and started walking away.

"I told you to never say that name again Jaken, ever." His voice was stern and monotone. He continued walking as the green man gulped and followed after him loyally, his high pitched voice screaming apologies along the way.

Taking a step forward she stopped herself and looked after them. She felt that she was unwanted and it was best to stay away from them both. Kieko turned the other way and looked around as she started walking in a random direction.

The trees were so big, and the air smelled so clean. The quiet sounds soothed her and she stopped mid step. It all hit her at once, where the hell was she? She was in school not a half hour before with the man from Japan; she was standing with him looking at the sword he brought in listening to his story.

She looked behind herself and smiled a bit he looked a lot like the man with the crescent moon, Sesshomaru was his name right? Her mouth opened and she let out a bark of laughter and she smiled to herself.

It all made sense now she was dreaming. She fell over in school, probably hit her head and now she was in the nurses office dreaming waiting for mom to come get her.

"DUH!" She said to herself feeling stupid for thinking one second this was anything but a dream. She could take this world and herself more lightly now. She laughed and started to skip feeling the warm air on her face, she was good at this, everything felt so real.

"Way to go brain" she complimented her mind on all the fine jobs it did with the textures, aromas, and sights. She even thought up an odd character such as the green beaked man, Jaken she named him right? She stuck her hands in her jean pockets and felt her iPod, and her head phones.

Pulling them out she decided to just lay down and listen to the music until her mother showed up. Even if it was her dream what would she make happen? The man Sesshomaru come back and make love to her, and tell her how much he loves her until she can go back to sleep?

Her blush heated up her face and she tried to make the idea go away as fast as possible, that was way too embarrassing to think about even in a dream.

As she walked into a more heavily wooded area, she could hear water splashing in the distance. A thought came to mind, she could lay by the water listening to her music feeling the sun fall through the leaves and wait.

It seemed more relaxing than anything she could do while she was awake; to not take this opportunity while she can would be a sin. As she spotted the water complete with docks and a small shrine besides it made of stone she smiled.

It looked so peaceful here she just had to go the extra mile. As she sat on the docks she removed her shoes and socks rolling them up and tucking them into her shoes so she wouldn't lose them. She took the ends of her jeans at the hem and rolled them up to her knees, as she slid one foot in then the other.

The chill went through her feet and up her spine it felt refreshing. Putting in her head phones and listening to the soft beginning of her My Chemical romance album, she swished her feet back and forth in the water with the beat humming along.

Something glided against her foot as she started to drift, with a start she sat up and looked down into the water; it was too dark to see anything but her feet. She had a feeling she should take them out fast, as she started to recoil she felt something grip her ankle tightly.

Pulling off her head phone and tossing her iPod away she tried to pull her foot away, but as she did she was pulled back, the tug caused her to skid against the dock. A shadow started to rise from the water and Kieko pulled her foot harder. The surface of the water broke and a woman who had the body of a snake was before her. Her eyes looked at her, as humans looked at an ant. Kieko looked around desperately for a stick or something, she willed her mind to form a gun in her hand but nothing happened.

Panicking tears formed in her eyes as the fingers around her ankle tightened and pain shot through her leg. The long nails started to make crescent moon shapes in her skin as blood welled around them.

Closing her eyes tight Kieko thought of the man Sesshomaru. "I-I want to wake up now." She said her voice weak and cracking. She was being pulled up by her foot and at monster looked at her.

"What's that are you praying human?" The woman asked in a husky low voice with an amused tone, Kieko had spoken in English she forgot the dream was in Japanese. "Prayers won't help you, Nothing can help you from being lunch for my babies" She smirked, now hanging upside down Kieko looked and saw snakes swimming in the water so many they overlapped each other and started to strike out at her. She whimpered as a tear rolled up around her forehead.

"I want to wake up, please. I just want to wake up and go home now" She whispered as sobs started to come out, the realization hit her at one. She wasn't dreaming, this was all real and she was really about to die.

"HELP! SOMEONE HELP PLEASE!" She called out her sobs loud and her tears wetting her hair temples and forehead. She called out in English, in Japanese, she called for anyone. A tongue came out and licked her forehead bile started to rise and stung her nose and throat.

"You'll be delicious for them." She chuckled as she let go of Kieko's ankle and water hit her face hard, she was surrounded by it, she couldn't breathe as she opened her eyes she saw the snakes fast as lightening swimming for her, kicking her feet hard she tried to swim away.

One bite, two bites, she felt like she was being ripped apart. Tears flooded from her eyes as she fought against the mouths, kicking and punching and biting back, her lungs burned again but different from before this time they stung because water was filling them.

Then she felt another grasp on her wrist she fought as hard as she could but the grasp tightened almost snapping the bone in two. It was most likely a snake squeezing the fight out of her. Then she was pulled from the water and the bites and weights from the snakes disappeared.

She could feel blood flowing from her wounds and she took a big gulp of air as she started crying from the pain and from being so scared.

She was being cuddled, held tightly and protectively. That was all she remembered until she blacked out. She woke up in a blanket with a warm fire next to her, her chest burned and she coughed. She opened her eyes but they hurt too, it was dark out, the stars she saw made her lose her breathe again.

She had never seen anything so beautiful. As she tried to sit up pain sliced through every inch of her body. "Don't move you're hurt." For some reason disappointment hit her hard, she wanted to cry again.

The voice was a woman's it was calming and nice, she wasn't in danger but it wasn't the low husky monotone voice she wished it was. Looking over she saw a man with silver hair, and ears on top on his head like a dog, he was wearing a red shirt and pants, but he was barefoot.

The girl in front of her had big brown eyes she looked nice enough but was wearing a Japanese school uniform; there were two other people she couldn't make out as well.

"W-where am I?" She asked her voice croaking and her throat dry. The girl looked a little uneasy and Kieko asked again in Japanese, the girl nodded as if saying she understood from the beginning but still her eyes shifted over to the others.

"Sesshomaru?" She asked hoping the girl knew who he was and if she could get him but all she saw was shock on her face, then she shook her head softly.

"H-he's not here" She said back and watched as Kieko just turned her head with a nod and let her eyes close again. He wouldn't be coming for her after all.

This was real and the only person she felt safe with had abandoned her because she was ignorant and not who he wanted her to be. She just wanted to sleep now, and wake up with him if she had to wake up here again.
