New chapter. Enjoy! Review! I don't own the dog boy. :)

Life

Sesshomaru leaned his head against the rough bark and stared at the human girl's form. You would think she lay there dead if not for the small sound of breath escaping the body. Sesshomaru's stare turned into an ice cold glare as he rubbed his cheek. The physical sting left hours ago, but the mental sting kept biting at his pride. 'You would be dead right now if it weren't for the fact that you know the whereabouts of that damned jewel!' Thoughts of sliding over next to Kagome, and creating a nice little slit in her throat flew in and out of the demon's mind. He would get more than just pleasure out of it, watching the blood slowly drain out of her body and life leaving her eyes.
A fuzzy figure flopped down next to Kagome and Sesshomaru realized the hanyou had made his entrance. Any remaining thoughts of killing the teenage girl fled his mind.
"How did you meet her?"
"What?"
"You heard me." Inuyasha was shocked at the casual conversation his brother had started but knew this would distract his mind from Kagome.
"She was the one who set me free. Can you believe it? I mean, I tried to kill her afterwards but it was because her body possessed the Shikon Jewel."
"And you feel no remorse for anything you've done to her?"
"Of course I do! I wish she had never seen me and Kikyo all those times. Sometimes I wish she had never fallen through that well. Maybe then she could have had a normal life, and love a normal guy. " Sesshomaru was intrigued by the emotions flowing from his brother.
"Don't be stupid Inuyasha. I've seen you fight when she's around. She does something to you. If she's harmed - your blood boils. If death was about to take her away - you shed tears. If something makes her cry - you try your hardest to take the pain away. "
"Since when did you become so insightful?"
"It amazing what a human can do to someone like us..." Inuyasha dared to climb further into Sesshomaru's mind and found a glimpse of small village child. He was pushed back.
"Why do you hate humans so much?"
"Why do you love them?" Sesshomaru blocked the connection between him and Inuyasha and raised his eyes to meet the sunset. His eyes then darted back to the lump by the fire. A rush of anger flew up his spine.
"Where'd that bitch go?!"
Kagome was running as fast her legs could take her away from that place and put her plan into effect.

In the alternate dimension, Miroku awoke from beside the fire with the breath almost clearing from his lungs.
"Sango!" He gently shoved the shoulder of the demon hunter and awoke her.
"Wha? What is it?," she asked groggily.
"I sense something. Something powerful! I think Kagome is trying to reach to us...some way or another."
"What are you -" Before the youkai exterminator could ask anymore, Miroku clamped his hand around hers and pulled her to the source of the power. Sango's breath could not keep up with her legs but Miroku pushed her forward.
They finally came upon a purple orb. The same kind of purple orb that had brought them there. Inside the orb they saw a figure running. Kagome! Sango clenched the robes of the monk and he suddenly realized the surprise leaking from her eyes.
"Miroku! Do you know where she is!? She's at Kikyo's village! 50 years ago!"
"Why would she be there?"
"I don't know...but I have feeling that whatever the reason is, it might be able to get us out of here!"

Alrighty then! This chapter was kinda short but I needed it that way for the next chapter which i'm starting on now....Okie Dokie!
