Author's Notes: It's me again!!!! Okay I don't know when this story will
stop being confusing. Maybe this chapter maybe not. Thanks for your review
Ami-chan. I've NEVER been on a favorite story list before, anyway on with
the story.
(Feudal Japan) "So what you're looking for is this thing called, uhh what was it called?" Inu-Yasha was questioning Akane.
Akane sighed yet again (she'd been doing a lot of that lately. "It's called the Spirit necklace," she replied. "My family has been searching for it for hundreds of years. One day it just disappeared and we think it's because our family from my time got it."
Under her breath she whispered, "At least we hope so."
Inu-Yasha kept questioning her. "So you're looking for this Spirit necklace thing?"
Akane nodded her head in affirmation. "Why?" Inu-Yasha asked.
"Well six hundred years ago from my time a priestess, I can't remember her name, took our family in, in time of need. While they were there she took each of them in secret, and told their family's future, but in doing so she made each of them promise not to interfere with what would happen, lest horrible things befall them." Akane took a deep breath before continuing.
"Well each one she told them that their family line was doomed to fail. They each asked her how they could prevent that from happening. Before she told them she made them swear upon their honor never to interfere. They each quickly agreed. She told them that the only way that might stop this from happening was to get the youngest Tendou daughter, and make her get what was called the spirit necklace. She said it might not necessarily be this generation. Well the only one not to swear upon their honor was Kiriko the youngest Tendou daughter. Bye and bye Kiriko learned of the prophecy and swore she would find the necklace, but as you can see she did not succeed, in the end I was sent. Apparently I am our family's last hope."
"You're your family's last hope. Why?"
Akane sighed, (A/N: AGAIN!!) she wished Inu-Yasha would stop asking her questions, or at least word them more interestingly. Her thoughts were interrupted by Inu-Yasha.
"Ahh look, Kiede's (spelling?) Village. She'll be able to tell you the legend behind this necklace thing. She knows too much."
* * * * * * (Tendou house hold)
"Mister Tendou you don't seem to grasp the fact that Akane is in danger!!!" Ranma yelled exasperatedly.
"Ranma," everyone jumped back as they saw it was Soun speaking.
"Before I tell you, you must answer me truthfully on bashfulness, no lies to please me, nothing like that."
Ranma didn't like the sound of that on bit, but he nodded his head, waiting.
"Do you love Akane?" This took Ranma by surprise.
"Nani?" he asked, taken aback.
"Do you love Akane?" Soun repeated.
"Why are you asking me something like that?" Ranma heard his voice croak.
Soun looked at Ranma with sorrowful, knowing eyes. "I want to know that you are saving Akane for love, not because of duty, honor, or some foul promise."
Ranma stared back at Soun, his gaze still confused.
"I could not ask you to save my girl from this fate if you do not love her." Soun explained.
Now Ranma in all seriousness said, "Do you promise that if I tell you there won't be some big wedding, or that you will kick Pop and I out?"
Soun nodded. "I." Ranma began.
A/n: yes I know this chapter is very short, but I couldn't resist the temptation of that cliffhanger. Gomen.
:) Akane-obsessed
