::Author's Note::

Right now, I can't think of anything to say except this chapter has a tiny bit to do with every character... Sango, Inuyasha, Miroku, Kaede, Kikyou, Sesshoumaru, Kagome.. even Koga is being introduced... Well just read to find out!

--------------------------------------------------

Last Time:

"Sango!!!"

But before he could make her stop this, she was gone.

Sesshoumaru looked into the jewel and saw his father's face.

"Hello...son" the face said.

-------------------------------------------------

Chapter 10- What Do I Do?

------------------------------------------------

"F-Father?"

"Sesshoumaru.. It's good to see you again!"

"Father, It's been a long time since I've seen your face"

All of the sudden, Inu-No-Taisho's face disapeared from the jewel and it shot a projector type light from it. At the end of the light, Inuyasha's and Sesshoumaru's father was there in full form. He reached out to Sesshoumaru and his hand touched him. The light disapeared and He was showed as a reborn life-form.

"Father.. Are you.. alive?"

"I-I guess so... I have no idea how!"

Sesshoumaru stared at his father's lifeful body. He couldn't help but think Sango had something to do with this. He would have to decide after the talk weather to thank her, or yell at her.

"Father... I never thought I would ask you for help... bu-"

"I know... Sesshoumaru.. your forgeting that I can see you and I know when your having trouble..."

"Right... Do I have to say it or will you help me without admiting it?"

"I want you to say it.. That way not only are you admiting it to me, but to yourself as well."

Sesshoumaru sighed.

"Alright...Father...I...I... I'm following your footsteps."

Inu-no-Taisho sighed.

"I guess that's as good as it's gonna get huh?"

"You know how hard it is for me to say something like this! You know how I feel about humans!! You know that it kills me to be falling in love with one!"

Inu-no-Tasiho smiled as Sesshoumaru gasped when he relized what he said.

"Apparenly, Sesshoumaru, It's not as hard as you thought. You just said what you think you will regret saying in the future."

"Father... how did you deal with falling in love with a human?"

"I didn't... I just accepted the fact that I fell in love with someone who cared for me. I was like you Sesshoumaru, I hated humans! But when I met Izayoi, I changed. She showed me that humans are just the same as demons. the only diffrence is that we posses ears, and tails and we have the ability to transform whenever we wish. Humans are just like us. They have ears, noses, eyes, mouths, arms. They arn't any different. And so, when I questioned me falling in love with her, I accepted that I did."

"But... She didn't have power.. she was weak!"

"Sesshoumaru... She may not of possesed any power, but she wasn't weak... She fell in love with a demon didn't she? That proves that she was strong. And even so, this has nothing to do with your falling in love with that girl... She has power... she is the reincarnation of a priestess."

"Yes, but she is still a human"

"A human with a heart! Sesshoumaru... if she were a demon.. would you go after her?"

"Yes"

"What about if you were a human?"

"...Yes.."

"Just forget about species for this Sesshoumaru!"

"I.. I can't! What would everybody think of me? The great Dog Demon's son, falling in love with a human, like his father."

"You have somebody to protect now! You can save her entire life by telling her you love her! Save her Sesshoumaru! Do the right thing and forget about the fact that she's a human. She's a powerful priestess and a strong taijiya warrior. She befriended a demon which means she won't slay you. She's also very beautiful and shes extreamly nice and caring. What's not to like about her besides the fact she's a human?"

Sesshoumaru thought, and thought. He couldn't think of anything.

"That's what I thought. Just for once Sesshoumaru, do what you want, not what you think is right."

And with the words to his son. Inu-no-Taisho bid farewell, and left the cliff to go reunite with everyone.

"What do I do?" Sesshoumaru asked himself.

------------------------------------------------------

Inuyasha was still looking for Sango. He had no idea that his father was alive once again. He was still obsessed with finding Sango and getting the Jewel.

Suddenly, upon trying to catch Sango's scent, another scent hit his nose and made it twitch.

Koga, the wolf demon.

"Hey mutt! What are you and your flea self up to now?"

"Shut up Koga! That's non of your business!"

"I bet I can guess!"

"Bet you can't.. now buzz off I'm busy."

Inuyasha and Koga had begun to start getting along since Koga had givin up on Kagome. Him and Ayame were suposivly mating now. Inuyasha hadn't seen nor heard from Koga since Naraku's death.

"Your looking for either Kagome, The Monk, Or that Taijiya."

"Kagome is back in her own time, I know were Miroku is... But I am looking for Sango. Have you seen her?"

Koga smiled.

"Why does it matter? Do you like her or something?"

"No.. She has something that I want! And I need to apolojize for something I did... So have you seen her or not?"

Koga rolled his eyes.

"Your not gonna like this.. But Yea I seen her, about an hour ago. She was up on top of a cliff hugging some guy... He had long white hair and fancy clothes on... He was a dog demon like you... know who he is?"

Inuyasha stared at Koga in shock.

"Sesshoumaru!!! SANGO AND SESSHOUMARU!!! WHAT THE HELL!!!"

"I'm guessing that's a yes?"

Inuyasha grabbed Koga by his collar and picked him up.

"Where is she now?! Where?! What cliff?!"

"Relax Mutt!! It's about an hour south. Just follow that path and it leads you straight to it"

Inuyasha dropped Koga and ran down the path.

"What do I do?" Himself asked himself.

----------------------------------------------------------------

Back in Kagome's time, she was still trying to solve the mystery of her history lesson. She stayed after class one day to see if her teacher knew anything about the name of the girl, but didn't say anything.

"Mr. Saguwia, Can I ask you a couple questions about the Shikon Battle that you talked about the other day?"

Mr. Saguwia looked puzzled at Kagome, and then smiled.

"Ahh Kagome... I knew that I would be expecting a visit from you about this, you seemed very intrested in it the other day."

"Yes, I was... My family's shrine has stuff from the Sengoku period and I know alot about it. I had never heard of that Battle and asked my grandfather about it. He pretty much told me what you did, but he, like you, wouldn't tell me the name of that girl that broke the curse. I want to be a story book writer and I wanted to write a book on the war, but I need a name to write it."

Mr. Saguwia looked up at Kagome and sighed.

"Come with me Kagome, I want to show you something."

Kagome followed Mr. Saguwia into a room that was behind his desk. When he opened the door, she found many books, encyclopedias, scrolls, everything that has to do with history.

"I, like you, was very intrested in the aspects of the battle when I first heard of it. My ansestor from the Sengoku period was able to pass down the name you search for. I'm guessing he was somewhat close to the girl because he too was from the demon slayer village that she was from. He left for an unknown reason and gave up demon slaying. When the battle was over, word spread all around about a female demon slayer breaking Midoriko's curse from his old village. He knew that the girl was the only demon slayer from the same village as he so he passed down that name through our blood line. When I didn research on the subject, I found the name in one of the family scrolls.

"How come you didn't say it in class?"

"Because, it is a family secret. This name has been known in our family and we are only aloud to give it out to people who need it.

"So... Why give me the name?"

"Because.. I know you want to quit school Kagome, I'm hoping that giving you the name will make you reconsider.."

Kagome shook her head and shrugged. Mr. Saguwia picked up a box of family scrolls and pulled on out and looked at it. Then he repeated the process over and over again.

"Ah! here it is... Kagome.. are you ready for this?"

Kagome nodded and listened closely.

"Word has spreaded about a woman taijiya that had broken the priestess Midoriko's aincient curse. It is said that she was from my old village. I know that there was only one woman taijiya from my old village that ever existed. Her name.. was Sango"

Kagome gasped and found herself collapsing on the floor. She suddenly got up and ran out of the school.

'How can Sango be the one that broke that curse.. How can Sango be... be a PRIESTESS?!' Kagome thought as she ran home. She went into the dojo with the Bone Eaters Well and found herself on the ledge, gasping for air. Kagome jumped through it and landed on the ground.

'If I got through when Inuyasha took my shards that one time.. I can get through now!!!' She thought as she began to dig.

Kagome digged and digged. She knew it was no use. there was no way that she could get back now.

"Kagome...?" A familar voice said in Kagome's head. It was Sango!

"Sango? Sango Where are you?"

"Kagome! How are you?"

"Fine! How is everybody there?

"Great I guess... I haven't seen them for a year tho.

"Oh.."

"Kagome... I can help you get back.. but you have to promise to do something for me!" Sango replied.

"What do I have to do?" Kagome asked.
