Sango looked strangely at the monk, hanyou, and miko.

"W-who…who are…how do they…?" she stammered, never completing a single thought. Sesshomaru looked down at her, a concerned look on his face.

"Sango-chan…get out of here…" he commanded. She looked at him with worried eyes as well.

"Sesshomaru-kun…I can't leave you here! What if you need my help?!" she asked, her voice a mixture of anger and distress.

The hanyou glared at Sesshomaru. "So, now she's your 'chan'?" he asked, holding out a large sword that resembled a fang, "I'll kill you…"

----

Inuyasha hissed at his brother. "I'll kill you…"

Sesshomaru laughed back at him. "Do you really think so?" he asked, drawing his own sword, Tokijin, "Your head will roll on this ground before you even touch me."

As the two half-brothers stared in each other down, ready to attack each other at any moment, Kagome and Miroku both stared intently at the odd young companion of the taiyoukai.

"Kagome…can you feel the sacred powers within her?" Miroku asked. The young miko nodded.

"And…and the light…in his soul?" she asked in turn. Miroku nodded. This was all much, much too confusing. They had to find out who this woman was, and fast. If she was indeed Sango, they had to awaken her memories that had been suppressed, by Sesshomaru or any other force.

Miroku took a few steps forward. "Girl…answer me…what is your name?" he asked briskly. Sango looked at him square in the eye, as if she was searching his spirit yet again, then looked up at Sesshomaru. He simply glared at the monk, then returned his piercing stare to Inuyasha.

Sango was unable to infer what Sesshomaru meant by his stare. She was in a whirlwind of confusion…so lost in the day's happenings. At first, she had been simply a girl with no memory other then that of the loving, saving hand of her Sesshomaru-kun…and now she was known by a monk, miko, and hanyou…each of whom she never remembered laying eyes upon. But there was a look in the silver-haired hanyou's eyes directing a bitter ferocity at Sesshomaru, the miko a strong sense of friendship toward her, and the monk…she could feel the monk's love for her radiating from his spirit.

She didn't know how she could read people's spirits how she did, but at this point, she didn't care; nor did she care what Sesshomaru said. She knew these people. She didn't know how, she knew nothing other then the feelings they had for her.

"My name…is Sango…"

----

Miroku gaped slightly. It truly was Sango. His prayers had been answered! He was overjoyed that she was alive, but he was still heartbroken that she remembered nothing, and was now the companion of Sesshomaru, a demon so wicked he cared not to describe it. But then again, she seemed to be purifying the demon. She had no powers of cleansing evil in her first life, so how did she acquire them in her second?

Her furrowed his brow, looking straight at her. Inuyasha and Kagome were staring at her as well, and a menacing glare was plastered onto Sesshomaru's face, wanring them to stay away from her.

But the inuyoukai couldn't control his woman. Sango took another step forward, and asked a question of her own.

"Tell me…who you all are…" she said.

Miroku looked a little disheartened. She truly didn't remember him. Nut he had to hope and pray that he could jog her memory and bring back the love they once shared.

"Sango…it's me…Miroku…we were…in love…"

----
Sango looked in utter shock. She had been able to sense his emotions, but the feelings were so much more profound when spoken. Sango felt an aching sensation in her chest, and as she felt the intense eyes of Sesshomaru, the monk Miroku, and the two whom she knew to be her friends, it progressed to a sharp pain that radiated throughout her body.

Wincing in pain, Sango gripped her chest, and slowly fell the her knees. In a single, fluid action, Sesshomaru slid Tokijin back into its sheathe, and caught her before she fell to the ground.

"Sango-chan? Sango-chan…answer me…" he said sternly, hints of worry appearing in his voice from time to time. He growled lowly. Her memories were coming back to her…he knew it.

"Damn you, Inuyasha…damn you to hell…" he hissed angrily.

Inuyasha glared back at him. "Damn me?" he asked sardonically, "You're the one that erased her memories in the first place…now you're just paying the price because they're awakening…"

Sesshomaru glared furiously at his younger half-brother, amber eyes glowing a deep crimson. He said nothing, but they all knew if they got to close he could certainly kill them. But with Inuyasha, armed with a glowing Tessaiga by her side, Kagome pointed an arrow and the inutaiyoukai's head.

"You…you have some questions to answer, you awful beast…"
