[I hope everyone is enjoying the story~ I can guess things only get chaotic from here! Finally some romance right? Also, please excuse the Adventure Time reference. I use this as an alternative expression.]

I was standing at the door again. I just opened it and let myself in. Where was this place? how come I keep coming back to it? I looked around the room inside. It was a mess, completely different from the time before. I walked further in and looked a bit more. I heard crying in the corner of the room. There was a shadow in the corner just crying, and I walked up to it slowly. She must have heard me coming because she turned to me quickly, tears in her eyes. It was the blonde again, but instead of her sweet smile there was pain in her face. She got up and came to hug me.

"I tried to change things, I tried to protect you..." she said holding me tight. "I thought I could change things...but I was too late..." that is when it hit me. I had not really seen any memories of my past life's childhood so I didn't pick it up sooner. I began to cry too. This woman was my mother. I held her close as well.

"I am sorry too...for everything I did..." I said to her. She pulled away a bit and just looked into my eyes.

"I no, it was not you..not the you that you are now...and even back then...it was not your fault...it was all mine..." she said. I was confused.

"No, it's not like you forced me to do all of those...horrible things..." I tried to comfort her. She just shook her head.

"I couldn't give you a good life. I failed as a parent. I tried to earn as much money as I could and provide the necessitates, but that was not enough. I couldn't protect you from the cruel people of the world." she stopped and looked away for a bit before looking back. "Life was hard without your father around." this was really the first time I had heard her mention my past father. I could tell it was painful so I just stopped her and looked to her.

"Why did you think that you failed? You were a great mother?" I asked. She just looked down.

"When I died, I kinda became your guardian angel in a sense. I knew what you did and when you died, I knew I had to make sure your next life would be better than the one I gave you." she said. What did she mean? Did she know I was going to be born with my current parents? With that I began to feel myself being pulled out of the room. I panicked and looked back to her waving to me good bye. "I am sorry, but this will be the last time we speak. Please be careful." was the last thing I heard before the door closed in front of me, then shattered. All I could do was reach my hand out.

I opened my eyes. I was yet again in a new place. Out in the woods somewhere. I looked around to see that a fire was burning next to me. I tried to sit up, but was foiled by Rin stopping me.

"Hey! Get some rest!" she said. I just laid back down, I really didn't have the energy to fight her. I placed my arm over my pounding head.

"What happened?" Was all I could ask at the moment. Rin just closed her eyes to sigh and then gave a small smile.

"Lord Sesshomaru fought that evil demon, then he ran away. Sesshomaru brought you here and started a fire then left again." she said. Huh? This was a first, he leaving us alone.

"Where did he go?" that is when Jaken piped in. Oh. Great.

"It does not matter, he will be back when he gets back. He has ordered us to watch over you. He also ordered YOU to get some rest. When he pick you up you were burning up!" He spat out. Burning up? OH. That would explain why I was dizzy and junk before. I still didn't feel very well, mentally that is. I really did feel rested so I sat up. Rin was a bit panicked so I had to calm her down by saying I was ok. Having that dream about my past mom really made me miss MY mom...and my dad...and home. I was feeling guilty, homesick and hungry. I sighed while I sat there, listening to Rin and Jaken's back and forth, like tennis between an optimist and an old man. I was mildly entertained by the two for a while, it kept my mind off of everything.

Of course it was not long before they decided to sleep. I faked it. I can't sleep again. I simply can't. I laid there until I was sure they were asleep. I was like a ninja, getting up and tip-toeing my way out of the site. I had to take a walk for a bit. the moon was bright and beautiful that night. I just walked in a random direction. The air was crisp and fresh. I was taking in the air and good vibes when i spotted something in the distance, or rather someone. They were standing on a cliffs edge, just standing there. I recognized who it was, so I slowly approached him. Sesshomaru knew I was coming, he just turned to meet my gaze.

"What are you doing here? I said you needed more rest..." he said in a low tone. I just came up beside him.

"I couldn't sleep...I have been sleeping mostly this whole time here..." I responded. he scoffed and looked back out into the open.

"Not last night apparently..." So I didn't sleep last night and got a fever...so what? I Just looked in the same direction.

"I keep having nightmares, from my past life. I cant help it." I said into the air. he didn't respond and just kept his face forward. I smiled a bit and took in the view. "It is beautiful tonight, I wanted to walk a bit. Besides, you get to wonder off without any explanation, so why cant I?" I said. His eyes shot to me, a bit agitated. I got nervous.

"Because I can handle myself in fights. You keep passing out." he stated. I puffed up a bit.

"Hey that's not fair! I am dealing with a lot of crap right now!" I said as I folded my arms. Sesshomaru just watched her. "How do you think you would react if all on less than 2 weeks you were kidnapped, injured, practically mind raped, and dealing with identity issues..." It sounded a lot better in my mind. I just chuckled.

"You seem to be fine with all of that." he said, again turning back. I sighed and thought for a moment.

"I have just about cracked this mystery. Just a few loose ends to tie" that is when I laid my attention on Sesshomaru. "...how are you involved in all of this?" I asked. he just looked to me.

"What do you mean?" He asked back.

"Well, you say you are not involved with the whole situation, but you are. By protecting me and keeping me from Naraku, you are very involved...but why? Why did you rescue me? Why Protect me?" I was genuinely curious. He stood there for a while, his eyes shining in the light of the moon. There it was again. My heart was pounding, my thoughts were scrambled, and my stance was wobbly. I began to stumble, but before I could fall something had caught me. I looked up to see Sesshomaru. I was against his chest. Oh Glob. My heart felt like it was just going to jump out of my chest and yell 'TAKE ME!' but it didnt...and I wont let it. My face turned red and I pulled away. "Thanks" was all I could say, turning my head away.

"it is difficult to say really." He began. "I could say that I merely do not wish for Naraku to grow stronger, but I do not consider that man to be of any real threat to me. I guess the best way to explain it would be that the thought of that man taking you and having you...disgusts me." It what? he closed his eyes and paused for a minute. He started to walk off. "Come then, let us return." I just quickly followed him. I think I am falling for him...
