Inuyasha

Surprisingly, Haley fit in well with the gang and Inuyasha didn't think she was all that bad. In fact, and he would never admit this to anyone, he was actually a little grateful that she did come along and that she reappeared in his life. She may not be like his past loves, but that was okay. He was thankful that she wasn't like Kagome and didn't try to be. Haley was her own person and although he thought she was an annoying bitch at first, he learned to like her and the fact that she would stick up for her friends. Also the fact that his friends seemed to like her too.

"When are we going to get there?" Haley whined. They had been walking for only a day and she was already complaining. That was one of the few things Inuyasha thought he would never grow to like.

"Will ya quit complainin? We haven't been walking that long!" Inuyasha said.

"Yes we have!" she whined again.

"We've only been walking for a day!" Inuyasha retorted. Their conversation had made the whole group stop and observe.

"That's too long!" she said. Didn't this girl ever stop whining?

"It is not! You're a demon so start acting like it!" Inuyasha yelled. Then Haley did something that surprised them all and made Shippou hide behind Sango and Miroku. Haley stood up and it looked like she was about to attack Inuyasha.

"What is that supposed to mean?" Haley asked. Inuyasha was prepared for her to yell like Kagome used to, but instead Haley asked calmly and put her hands on her hips to show that she was at least slightly offended. That made him more afraid than he ever was of Kagome.

"It-It means that you should be able to walk for days without complaining or resting!" he had stuttered at first but then regained his composure. Haley blinked twice.

"Oh." She simply said. Now it was Inuyasha's turn to blink twice.

" 'Oh'? That's all you have to say?" he muttered.

"Well, I thought you meant something completely different. Oh well, anyway, I guess you could say I'm one of the more lazy demons and I don't like to walk a lot. Even ask Ashley and Allie, they can tell you that they've had to constantly yell at me for complaining. And Ashley's threatened me more than once," Haley said.

"You have very… interesting friends," Miroku said.

"I would say violent fits her friends better," Inuyasha said. Haley laughed.

"They may be violent but we all love each other and we will always be there for each other no matter what happens!" Haley said.

"If that's the case then it sounds like you three are more like family than friends," Shippou said.

"Oh yeah! I guess you're right!" Haley laughed. They all began to walk again but Inuyasha didn't move. He was too engrossed in listening to Haley laughing and having fun for once instead of her either yelling, crying, or worrying about her friends. It made Inuyasha feel better that she grew up with such good friends to help her and support her.

Suddenly images of Haley smiling popped up in Inuyasha's head. He felt himself get more and more lost in her smile.

"Inuyasha," one of the smiling Haley's said. Inuyasha didn't respond in fear of interrupting her voice.

"Inuyasha?" she said again. She started to fade.

No, don't go. Inuyasha thought. Then a sudden noise brought him back to reality. He saw a pair of fingers snapping in front of him to get his attention. He looked down to a slightly worried Haley.

"Are you okay, Inuyasha?" she asked. Inuyasha felt a little blush coming on.

"Y-yeah. I'm fine. Don't worry about it," Inuyasha said. He quickly walked to the front of the group so none of them could see him blushing.

Damn it! Why the hell am I thinking this stuff? I should be focused on making sure we get to the village safely and watching out for that wolf demon. Damn it Haley! Get out of my head! Inuyasha said. He shook his head as images of Haley came back.

"What's he doing?" Shippou whispered.

"No idea. But you know, he kind of looks like a dog shaking off water after it has taken a bath," Miroku whispered back. Inuyasha turned around and raised his fist at them.

"I heard that!" he yelled.

"Why don't we get going? If we don't leave now, we won't get there until after sunset," Miroku said. Everyone but Inuyasha started walking again.

"Hey! Hold it! I'm not done talking to you!" Inuyasha shouted at Miroku.

"I wonder if the villagers will give us rooms and food if we slay the demon," Miroku said, ignoring Inuyasha.

"You mean if they will give us rooms if you tell them something outrageous so they will let us stay?" Sango muttered. Miroku laughed nervously.

"Sango, you make me sound like a scammer," Miroku said, rubbing the back of his head.

"Because you are, you lecherous monk," she said.

"I'm not lecherous anymore! Remember what I told you I would do once Naraku was defeated?" Miroku defended himself. Their voices got softer and softer the farther away from Inuyasha they went.

"Hey! Listen to me! And wait up!" Inuyasha yelled. They all stopped and turned to smile at him as he ran to catch up. Even Haley.

Ashley

I was lying in Sesshomaru's arms. His strong, warm, comforting arms. After everything we've been through these past few months since we found each other again, he was still here with me. Even after I constantly rejected him and didn't want anything to do with him. He continuously helped me gain my memories back, if only a little bit at a time. And now that I am in his arms once again, I remember every moment we spent together. Every kiss, every heated moment, every little disagreement, everything. I remember how much I have always loved him and the many times he has proved he loved me without actually saying the words.

I first went through my first memory of him. My father and I were visiting Sesshomaru's father to discuss an alliance between the two countries…

"Good afternoon, Lord Shogu," Lord InuTaisho said.

"Good afternoon to you as well, Lord InuTaisho," my father said.

"Sesshomaru. Come down here, there is someone I want you to meet," Lord InuTaisho said over his shoulder. I looked behind him to see a boy about my age descending the stairs.

"Yes Father," he said. He walked up to his father's side.

"Sesshomaru, this man is Lord Shogu of the Fire Dog Demon Lands," Lord InuTaisho introduced. "And this is his youngest daughter, Ashley." Sesshomaru bowed to my father and I.

"It is a pleasure to meet you both," he said.

"He is a fine gentleman, InuTaisho. Did you or your wife raise him?" my father joked. Lord InuTaisho laughed.

"My wife taught him his manners, and I taught him to fight. But of coarse he inherited his mother's view of humans," Lord InuTaisho said. Sesshomaru didn't say a word and neither did I.

"I see. Well, I guess it's my turn to introduce you to my daughter, huh?" my father said. "Ashley, this is Lord InuTaisho of the Western Dog Demon Lands. And that is Sesshomaru, his son. Say hello." I nodded and bowed to Lord InuTaisho.

"It is a pleasure to meet you both," I said.

"Likewise, Ashley. Now, Shogu, shall we get down to business?" Lord InuTaisho said. My father nodded. "Sesshomaru, why don't you show Ashley around the castle and tell her about the history of our lands?" Sesshomaru nodded and he gestured for me to follow him. I nodded.

To be honest, Sesshomaru and I had gotten off to a very rocky start once he finished showing me around.

"So what are you trying to say?" I yelled.

"I'm saying you're a hothead, through and through," Sesshomaru yelled back.

"Yeah? Well you're a cold-hearted jerk who will always be alone! And if you aren't, then I feel sorry for whoever becomes your mate!" I yelled. Sesshomaru's mother came bursting in through the door.

"What is going on here?" she asked calmly, but I could still tell that she tried to hide annoyance under her façade.

"She started asking stupid questions and then got angry when I wouldn't answer them properly!" Sesshomaru accused.

"I did not! I simply asked you what you liked to do for fun and you just told me to buzz off! Then you called me a hothead simply because I am from the Fire Dog Demon Lands!" I yelled.

"Quit making up lies!" he yelled.

"That's it! You can call me a hothead. You can call me a selfish little brat. But I will not stand for anyone calling me a liar when I did nothing but tell the truth!" I yelled. Then I stormed out to find my father.

I laughed a little. Sesshomaru kissed the top of my head.

"What's so funny?" Sesshomaru whispered against my hair.

"Nothing. I was just remembering the first time we met and that afternoon. Do you remember our very first fight?" I asked. He chuckled.

"How can I not? I called you a hothead and a selfish little brat," he said.

"Yeah, and I called you a cold-hearted jerk. I still can't believe how much our views of each other have changed," I said. He chuckled and sat up, forcing me to sit up with him. I turned around to face him and kneeled.

"I, for one, am glad that our views have changed," he said. He gently kissed me. I smiled when we pulled away.

"Same here," I said. That made him give a small smile. I was so glad that I was the only one who wasn't in for a death when he smiled at me.

Allie

"So, what are you going to do about that ice queen?" Koga asked, biting off a piece of boar meat. They (Koga, Allie, Ginta, Hakkaku, and the wolves) were all sitting together and were eating.

"I'm going to teach her a lesson. When I'm done with her, she will know not to mess with the bonds close family members have with each other. She expected me to just abandon my cousin. Hah! Like I would ever do that!" Allie said. She bit off a piece as well.

"But didn't she say that your new tribe, AKA us, would pay the price if you did?" Hakkaku asked.

"Oh yeah," Allie said. She suddenly didn't feel hungry anymore. It seemed Koga noticed this for he got up and hit Hakkaku in the head.

"Ow! What was that for?" Hakkaku yelled.

"For making her feel guilty!" Koga yelled at him. Then he addressed Allie. "Allie, don't mind what these two have to say. If you feel you need to help your cousin no matter what, then we are behind you one hundred percent." Allie smiled a little.

"Thanks Koga. That means a lot to me, but I don't think I can drag you guys into this," Allie said. She put her meat down and stood up. She began to walk away from them when Koga grabbed her arm.

"Where are you going?" he asked. Allie didn't turn to look at him. She just looked at the floor.

"I need to find Yuki. Once I do, I will end all this nonsense once and for all. Even if it means I need to go down with her, I will. I'm sorry Koga, but I need to do this," Allie muttered. She yanked her hand out of Koga's grip and began to run off.

I'm sorry Koga. I know I just came back to life and we just became mates, but I need to do this to help my cousin! Allie thought as she ran around the waterfall and away from the cave.

Then she heard a splash and looked to see Koga jumping through the waterfall and jumped onto the dry land in front of her, soaking wet.

"Wh-What are you doing?" she asked.

"As if I would let you go and die right after you came back to life. Allie, think this through and stop trying to rush into it! We're mates so we need to be able to rely on each other for help. Why won't you let me do my job and protect you?" Koga yelled. Allie blinked to try to make the tears from flowing. She looked back at the ground to avoid his stare.

"I'm sorry. It's just that I'm tired of running away from these things. That's all I've ever done. I ran away from the truth that my family was dead, I ran away during the war between the people of Ashley's land and Yuki's land, and I ran away when I found out Ashley's memories were erased by the same guy who controlled Haley to kill my family. I'm sick of Koga! I'm sick of running away! I tried to change that when we fought Naraku but I wound up getting in the way and dying! Now I can prove that I won't run away anymore! I can prove I'm useful in the battlefield!" Allie yelled, spilling her feelings out for Koga to hear.

"Allie," Koga whispered, his tone a lot more gentle than before. He walked up to her and gave her a comforting hug. "You've already proven that you can fight. Everyone already acknowledges that you are useful in the battlefield. You also already proven that you won't run away anymore, so don't run away from me now. I'm begging you. I just got you back and I'm not going to let you go, no matter what. If you want to end this, team up with your cousin and squash that icy bitch once and for all in the upcoming war." He patted her head and Allie let the tears flow but kept her sobs in. She didn't say anything; she couldn't without the sobs coming out.

"Okay," she muttered. Koga kissed her head and held her close. Allie really hoped that he would keep his promise of never letting her go, because she needed him.
