Sesshomaru could not believe it Mika the only human he'd ever had was now standing in front of him. "Sesshomaru it has been long since we saw each other!" Sesshomaru walked closer to her "Yes we were the same age if we count it in human years!" she smiled "Yes I am 18 years old now but things has changed!" Mika looked sadly at Sesshomaru "The day when we met last my father!" Sesshomaru remembered and use to always shun it out his memory. "I remember your father found us playing together and he was furious about it!" Mika looked "A human and demon can be friends you live in separate world and have nothing in common not even life span can keep you too friends forever!" Sesshomaru nodded "I remember I sensed the hatred of your father when I yelled that I would find the shikon jewel and turn you into a demon so we can be together forever!"

Mika looked at Rin "I see your heart is still just as pure as when we were kids!" Sesshomaru disagree "Mika the boy you once knew left when you were taken from me; your father and mine made me hate humans I wanted nothing more for them to go away! But when I saw this child offer me food and what humans had done to her I saw you in her face!" Mika smiled "I use to have dreams of what you were like now and cry when my father would force me to go demon hunting. I raised a little fox demon when her parents were killed by my clan's hands I believe her big brother was missing and I feared he too was slaughtered by them. Sesshomaru saw her sling "You carry her around?" Mika smiled "yes she is still a bit frighten but she trust me like the child you walk with trust your!" Sesshomaru looked at his campsite then back at Mika "Where were you going at such a night?" Mika frowned "My dad found her and tried to kill her but I knocked him out and ran!" Sesshomaru caught her when out of exhaustion she nearly fell to him. He slides the infant Fox demon in front of Mika and picked her up "You should rest with us!" In the morning as Rin and Jaken did their fishing Sesshomaru could hear Jaken almost scream "Who is Lord Sesshomaru with now we are picking up more human and with a baby demon?" Sesshomaru looked up and his eyes turned red "Jaken!" The imp demon froze in fear but once Mika started to get up his eye s turned back "Sleep well?" Mika smiled "Yes I did!" Rin smiled "Lord Sesshomaru you know her?" he turned "Yes she is my childhood friend!" Rin smiled "Like in your story? Wow she's pretty!" Mika smiled "Thank you!" Sesshomaru allowed everyone to eat before the next adventure "Mika will ride on Ah and un!"

Once everyone took their fill of food the group was off Sesshomaru turned as Mika began singing to the Fox demon he thought to himself "What a beautiful voice!" Sesshomaru began to feel the same way he did when they first met but he felt this time he cannot allow her to leave. A heavy storm was coming and Sesshomaru signaled for the flying demon to land "I can sense a storm coming and it will be dangerous to fly so close in the air!" At the nearest city the group stopped the villagers all glared with interest "A Demon with a child and woman how interesting!" Sesshomaru hated the glares but he did not say anything and walked to the inn "We need to take shelter from the storm is there any rooms available?" The older man stared at the others "Yes come we welcome all never in life have we had such a demon of your status come you must be very powerful! My wife will have food waiting since you are with children!" the man looked at Rin, the infant fox and Jaken. Jaken turned noticing he assumed he was a kid "You old geezer I am no child!" Sesshomaru turned "Jaken enough he is showing his hospitality in offering a room!" Jaken quickly straighten up and excused himself. The man turned for such honor we will give you this room it splits into two rooms the kids can stay in one and the adults in the other!" Sesshomaru thank the man and saw the elderly woman arrive with food "Please milord enjoy!"

Rin and Jaken ran to the center as they smelled the intoxicating aroma. Mika turned as the woman smiled "Such a lovely couple you two are!" Mika smiled as the woman left. Sesshomaru took Mika's hand and walked her to the food "You should eat!" Mika turned "You should eat as well!" the two sat across each other and Jaken could feel the strangeness from his lord as he thought to himself "Father like son apparently milord as an eye for this human !" Jaken even saw his master smile as if happy truly showing a sign he do have emotions. Once the food was gone and Jaken took Rin to her room Mika laid the infant with Rin and Jaken as Sesshomaru turned "Jaken make sure they are ok!" Jaken bowed quickly "Yes milord!" Jaken once again babysitter, the two closed the door and got ready for bed. Sesshomaru sat up as he admired how Mika slept in his heart he felt he wants to protect her and love her. He could hear her breathing and saw she began to wake "Sesshomaru!" she jumped as he slide over holding her hands "I am here Mika!" he pulled her to him as she cried "My father he's going to come look for me! I don't want him to hurt your or take me away from you again!" Sesshomaru looked at her and kissed her gently. "I won't allow that to happen!" and for the first time the two consummated their love for another as the night grew long. Sesshomaru was in a state of bliss as they finished and their naked form slept quietly.
