Kohaku had a dreamless sleep, and awoke to something cold touching his
face. He could also feel some warm air blowing onto his face. He opened his
eyes and yelled in shock. Standing over him was a wolf. Kohaku crawled back
until his back was pressed against the tree. He quickly pulled out his
sickle. The wolf didn't back off, it moved closer to Kohaku. He raised his
sickle; the wolf lowered its ears and started to growl. "Hey" Yelled a
voice that Kohaku had never heard before. He looked over the wolves head
and saw someone who he had never seen before either. "That must be the guy
who the voice came from." He thought. "Khaz come here and show me what you
found." The wolf backed away from Kohaku and walked up the one who called
him. Kohaku could finally seem him fully. He was tall and had long black
hair that was tied up in a high ponytail. He also had wolf fur wrapped
around his legs and around one of his arms. On his right arm he had a wrist
band. He also wore furry shoulder pads, a loin cloth and had what Kohaku
could tell, a tail. Kohaku noticed that the wolf had listened to him. He
then noticed that the unknown stranger had pointy ears. "He is a demon"
Kohaku made that observation in his head. The demon walked up to Kohaku and
towered over him. Kohaku bravely stood up. "You threatened my wolf." Kohaku
quickly thought. "No I wasn't going to hurt it." Kohaku lied. The demon
looked him up and down and sized him up. "Heh, what is a human child doing
out here with a sickle? He is young and seems to be lost." Kouga thought.
"Who are you?" asked Kohaku, relaxing somewhat. "I am Kouga, the wolf
demon, leader of the wolf tribe. And who are you?" "Uh my name is Kohaku,
apparently." Kouga looked at him strangely. "How can the kid not know his
own name?"
"Kagome!! Your back home" Kagome's mom and brother quickly ran out of the house and hugged her tightly. Kagome managed to glance over at Sango who was just standing there. "MOM!!!" Kagome's mom let her go. "Oh and who is your friend?" Mrs. Higurashi asked as she excitedly took Sango's hand and yanked her forward then shook it. Sango was taken by surprise; no one else had ever done that to her. "Ummm.....mom" Kagome's mom let go of Sango. "This is Sango, Sango this is my mother, and this is my brother Souta." Sango nodded. She looked down at Souta. "Kagome has told me about you, and how good of a little brother you are too her." "Souta put his hand behind his head and blushed. Mrs. Higurashi noticed that someone was missing. "So where is your friend...you know the one with the cute ears?" Kagome sighed. Her mom and her brother looked at her expectantly. Sango leaned over "Kagome, why don't you tell them that he is not feeling well and couldn't come." "He isn't well." She quickly said, and then she pulled Sango into the house and up to her room, before her mom or brother had a chance to say anymore. When they were there Kagome slammed the door shut. Sango looked at the surroundings, everything seemed strange to her. She walked up to the bed and ran her hand along the comforter, then she sat on the bed. "Wow, this is comfortable." "That is what I sleep in, it is called a bed." Sango lay back. "This really is comfortable." She thought. Kagome smiled. "You think that is comfortable, you haven't had a bubble bath. They are so relaxing." Sango nodded. She looked at the desk that had some big books on them. "Those are my text books; I have to study for my test." "Your family seems so kind. They seemed very happy to see you." She smiled. Kagome nodded. Sango looked over at a black box that was on a stand. It had a black center that had some reflection in it. She got up and walked up to it. She saw some black bumps on it that were shaped as circles. She pressed the biggest one. A loud sound suddenly came from it. Sango jumped back. Kagome giggled. "That is my TV; you can watch it if you like, while I study."

Sesshoumaru waited quietly for Sango and Kagome to return. He looked over at the little Kitsune that sat near him. "So that is Shippo, such a small demon, so tiny in size." He thought. Shippo could feel Sesshoumaru's eyes on him, he quivered a bit. Sesshoumaru quietly smiled. "I wonder how long it takes to take these test things, whatever they are. I am going to have to find Jaken soon." He thought. He looked over at Shippo again; Kirara had appeared and was playing with Shippo. Sesshoumaru whistled for Ah-Uhn. Pretty soon the two headed mount appeared. It landed gracefully in front of Sesshoumaru; Sesshoumaru stood up and patted it on the forehead. "Ah-Uhn, get Jaken and bring him to me." With that Ah-Uhn took flight and soon disappeared. Sesshoumaru sat back down satisfied. He noticed that Shippo was watching him again. "What?" "Uh n-nothing." Said a nervous Shippo. "Well there has got to be some reason you keep staring, what is it?" "Um...I uh kind of want to thank you.......uh nothing more" "I see, thank me for what" "Bringing Kagome back to life, and taking care of her, I don't know what I would do without her, she is like a mother to me." Sesshoumaru was a bit surprised, not many had thanked him before. "You mean to say you don't have a mother?" Sesshoumaru questioned. "No she died, so did my father he died in a battle against Manten who was one of the thunder brothers." "hmm.....that makes two of us." "Huh??" Shippo replied. "What is that supposed to mean." Sesshoumaru closed his eyes. "Both of our parents have died, we are both orphans." Shippo was very shocked to hear someone like Sesshoumaru talk like this, especially to someone like him. "YOU PERVERTED PERSON!!!!!" Shippo, Kirara and Sesshoumaru quickly snapped their heads up to see Miroku being chased by a rather angry girl. Shippo just shook his head. "Here we go again" He said. Sesshoumaru just looked with a bit of amusement showing through his eyes. "Now come on, no need to be angry at a poor person like me." Miroku said as calmly as he could. The girl wouldn't give up though. Sesshoumaru stood up. "Uh oh. Kirara this might get dangerous." Miroku was now hiding behind a bush. Sesshoumaru walked up to the girl and looked down at her with cold eyes. The girl looked up at him. "Out of my way!" Sesshoumaru didn't budge. "Why should I have to move for a pathetic ningen (human) like you?" The girl thought for a moment, then she backed away and took a good look at Sesshoumaru. "You, you are the one who killed some of our men a couple of years ago." Sesshoumaru smiled. "Ah you remember me. I am flattered." He said coldly. The girl backed away and ran back into the village. He turned to Miroku. "Thank you for that amusing interlude." Miroku smiled with embarrassment. Sesshoumaru Jumped and landed gracefully on a branch above. He began to think. "Great, if that girl tells the other villagers that I am here I will have more things delaying me then there already is. I can't leave this spot because Kagome and that demon slayer have to come back still, and Ah-Uhn will come back here. Unless I can somehow leave something so they will know where to find me and the villagers won't."
"Kagome!! Your back home" Kagome's mom and brother quickly ran out of the house and hugged her tightly. Kagome managed to glance over at Sango who was just standing there. "MOM!!!"
