Sorry about the delay. I swear in the good lord's name I had a good reason. If you want to know what it is... see my author bio. If you want to review make sure to see that page before you review.

What's In The Void Of The Tunnel

Kaze walks with his head down. He doesn't walk drowsily or tiredly, but regretfully.

' Master is going to punish me heavily. That, I am sure of.' Kaze muses.

Kaze stops his steps. He examines the area then shrugs.

"This way will be faster."

Kaze puts the palm of his hand to his face.

"Ka-zaa-na!" Kaze yells.

A black hole forms on his palm. A fierce wind sucks Kaze in to his own hand.

Village

' But how can this be? I could have sworn that he stopped breathing. Who would defile the grave of a mere child... unless...'

"Miroku! Miroku! Miroku!" Inuyasha shouts waving his hand frantically in front of his face.

Miroku stops his thoughts and pays attention to the hanyou.

"What is it, Inuyasha?"

"What is it?! I still want to know who is Kaze!" Inuyasha snaps.

"I can't tell you."

"Can't tell me?! Kagome and Sango still haven't moved! What reason could stop you from helping them!!!"

"Blood is thicker than water. If I tell you I'd be destroying my family's honor and Kaze's..." Miroku stops right there.

"Kaze's what?" Inuyasha asks vemonously.

"Nothing... and plus if I told you I'd have to kill you." Miroku advises.

"Miroku, when Sango and Kagome can move again, they won't be as 'nice' as I'm being." Inuyasha warns and walks off.

Miroku nods to no one. Once again he looks up at the blue sky.

' Grandfather Miyatsu... why did you befriend him? Why did you trust......'

Dark Cave

Kaze appears in the mid-air and falls to his feet. He looks around trying to adjust to the light. A deep voice speaks to him.

"Why have you returned, young Miyatsu? Or shall I say Kaze? That is an interesting name you gave Miroku." The voice echoes unfading.

"Master, I have some rather bad news. The Inuyasha with Miroku is the son of the great Inutaisho. Therefore, he inherited the Tetsusaiga." Kaze states.

"Inutaisho gave the Tetsusaiga to his half-demon son? Why not to Sesshomaru? Besides the point, did you eliminate Miroku?" the voice speaks.

"That's why I spoke of Tetsusaiga. Its ability allowed it to cut through my attack. And I'm afraid that even I tire after the use of a conjoined wind tunnel." Kaze says quietly.

"So I can safely say Miroku is alive? I didn't think he'd give up easily. Very well... what does he know of the kazaana?" it echoes still.

"He does not know the location where his leads. The ones who have been sucked from his kazaana are at a different spot than mine." Kaze answers.

"So he believes the wind tunnel is some portal to a different plane? I thought as much. As we know all the wind tunnel does is lead you to an unknown cave such as this one. Where there is no opening or closing, and while on that subject, no time. I have been here for thirty years and have not aged a day. Yet I still know not the full detail of these caves. Because you, young Miyatsu, are the only one that can venture between these two planes. The planes are shunned from the rest of the world for some reason I would like to know one day. These planes hold some power, that I am sure of. We need Miroku's houishi powers to help us control it. You will find a way to get him, young Miyatsu, or you will be punished." The voice echoes again.

Kaze bows respectfully.

"Thank you for you kindness... Grandfather Miyatsu."
