Chapter 1
He was injured. Not from his brother, but from another demon. There he was, sitting in the clearing that wasn't too far from a village. Suddenly, he heard someone coming. He hid in the woods that were the borderlines for the clearing. When the person came to view, he saw a girl. She was at the riverbank, getting water. Suddenly, she turned her head towards his direction.
"You can come out, I won't hurt you," she spoke. Sesshoumaru was surprised that she knew that he was there. When he stepped out of the woods, she told him to come over. For once, he obeyed. When he sat down, she took out some bandages, and some kind of remedy.
"I don't need it," he told her.
"I know, but this will help your wounds heal a lot faster," she told him. When she was bandaging him, Sesshoumaru couldn't help looking at her.
"There. Even with your powers, these wounds should be healed before tomorrow."
"You know that I have powers?"
"Yes."
"What are you, a miko?"
"Actually, I'm a witch."
"A witch?!"
"Uh-huh. But, I won't vanquish you, since you haven't done anything wrong to my village. What's your name?"
"It's Sesshoumaru"
"Mine's Suzuki. Well, I better get going." As she got up, and turned around to walk away, she tripped. She expected to feel the coldness of the ground, but she didn't. Instead, she felt a warm pair of arms, wrapped around her. She looked up, and saw who caught her. It was Sesshoumaru.
"Thanks," she said, looking at him. All he did was nod. He even helped her to her feet.
"Well, bye."
"Could you do me a favor?"
"Sure."
"Can you come back tomorrow?"
"No problem. Bye." She waved to him, and walked away.

It was the same time that Suzuki showed up to meet Sesshoumaru. When she got there, he was already there.
"How's your wound," she asked. Sesshoumaru showed her his wound, which was completely healed.
"See, I told you that it'll be healed before today. I bet you that even with your powers, that your wound wouldn't have healed this fast. By the way, how did you get that wound in the first place?"
"That's really none of your concern."
"Fine, keep it to yourself. So, why did you tell me to come back? I thought that demons couldn't love humans."
"Whatever gave you that idea?"
"Nothing. Just guessing."
"Besides, you're no ordinary human."
"But, demons and witches can't get involved. Whether it's just friendship, or love."
"Your right there." And, he did something unexpectedly. He smiled at her.
"You're smiling at me! I thought that dog demons didn't smile at non-demons!"
"They don't. To tell you the truth, there's something about you that makes you different from other humans."
"Thanks." She walked over to him, and sat next to him. The minute she sat down, both went into a conversation that lasted till sunset. This was her time to leave.
