"So, Naraku what are we going to do now?"

*Last time* "Well, first we need to write a letter declaring war on the other Lands, then we must strengthen your military forces. Oh, yes, and lastly, we need to do something about your wife."

"What is wrong with her?"

"Well, she could contact your enemy, tell them what you are doing, contribute to your assassination, and betray your trust."

"No, not my Yukina."

"Yes, I suggest that you lock her in the tallest tower to insure that she doesn't find out about your plans, and relay them to your enemy, and then she is always there for you to take pleasure in,"

"I like your way of thinking."

"Well, that is what I am here for."

Little did they know that Yukina was eavesdropping and heard everything so she did the first thing that came to her mind. She fled. She ran all the way back to the middle lands and in record time too.

*This time* All the Lords and Ladies were in the hall just lounging around when suddenly the door burst open. The little butler person thing (I don't know what they are called) came in.

"Now presenting...." he never finished because Yukina ran him over in her haste to get to the rest of the group.

"Yukina what are you doing here? I thought you and Lord Kuwabara left two days ago," asked Kagome.

"Must have water," *pant, pant*

"Oh, why didn't I think of that? Go fetch some water," ordered Inu Yasha. The butler person entered again with a tray. On it a pitcher and glass of water. Instead of taking the glass Yukina took the whole pitcher a drank it all down in exactly .00000000000000000000000000000000000009 seconds.

"Thank you. Now I have got some important news for you. Naraku has convinced Kuwabara to wage war on all the other Lands!"

There was a dead silence then all of them burst out laughing.

"No, I am serious,"

"We know you are we just can't believe he would fall for Naraku like that,"

"You don't understand Botan, Naraku can create very powerful warriors, and he knows a witch who can make zombies out of bones graveyard soil and souls, after all that is how he made Kikyou come back,"

"What, Kikyou is not dead," said Inu Yasha confused. There was a dead silence then Botan spoke.

"Yes she is Inu Yasha,"

"No she is not I just saw her two days ago,"

"Humph, that shows how dull a honyu's (sp?) sense are. Did you not smell the bones and clay Inu Yasha?" Asked Sesshomaru.

"Well I did wonder what the queer smell about her was but I never got close enough to really smell her."

"Well," spoke Kagome "while you where were away she had a tragic accident,"

*Flashback* "Kikyou what are you doing?"

"Well, Kagome, I am going to go heal someone on the other side of the village,"
*End of Flashback*

"What dose that have to do with her dying?"

"Well you never let me finish."

*Flashback*
"What happened to her?" Kagome asked the villagers who brought Kikyou back on a stretcher.

"When she was walking back from the house of her customer and she was attacked by a youkia, although we did not see who did it we know it because of her wounds."

"Will she live?"

"Unless she gets to a healer fast she will not live through the night. She is losing all her blood."
*End of Flashback*

"Well, I guess she didn't find a healer," said Inu Yasha sadly. Without looking up trying to hide the tears in her eyes, Kagome left the room.

"What is wrong with her?" asked Inu Yasha.

"I don't know why don't you asked HER," said Sango glaring at him.

*Out in the garden*
'Should I tell him, should I tell him that the reason that his love is dead is because of me?'

Like I said earlier tell me the pairing you want. Oh, and also, I was thinking, should I pair Yukina up with anyone after she dismates (I don't know the word for divorce in youkia terms) Kuwabaka, for example Kurama? Lastly I need advice there are currently two different people that could become ruler of the Eastern Lands - Yukina or Yuske, which one should I use?
