Sesshomaru listened to Yukara chant, the rhythm lulling one into a sense of dream.

The candles flickered shadows across the room in ever-changing patterns. casting both light and darkness at once.

The elven seal in the center of the room glowed and a dark clad figure stepped out of the circle.

"You have called me?" she asked, looking with black eyes from Sesshomaru to Yukara to Kao.

"I have." Sesshomaru said.

"What is your request?"

"Give me the means to defeat Naraku." Sesshomaru said, not looking the woman in the eyes.

"That is all?" she asked, her voice hollow.

"Aye." Sesshomaru said.

"You have that already. it is here." She said, then blinked out of existance.

Sesshomaru took tokijin and tetsuaiga from the wall.

Inuyasha had given him tetsuaiga in his will.

Kagome had blessed it so that he could hold it.

Now they were both gone.

"What did that mean?" Yukata asked, sitting near him.

"It must be the swords." he said, staring down at the two.

----

Kenji stared through the window, glaring at the white haired demon.

"Hang on, Kao, i'm gonna get you out." he whispered under his breath.

when the white haired man and green haired woman disappeared, he broke through the window and climbed into the room.

He reached into the glowing fog that surrounded his twin, pulling her from the barrier.

She was light in his arms.

He walked down the halls, searchig for the way out.

Suddenly he was stopped by a wall.

When he regained his balance, he looked up to find the white haired man standing over him.

"You are Kenji." it was a statement.

"Why?" kenji demanded.

"The way out is the other way." he said.

"Who are you?" Kenji asked, again.

"I am Sesshomaru, lord of the western lands. Your twin is promised to my nephew." he said looking down at him.

"Why did you kidnap her?" Kenji asked.

"She needed to be saved, she needed to be healed. I did both." Sesshomaru said.

"Why?"

"Come, i will tell you all you need to know." the man walked away from him.

When they arrived in a room, kenji found it had been the one from before.

"Let me tell you a story..." Yukara started after the introductions were done.

8Flashback8

Inuyasha helped Kagome out of the well, holding her close as he set her down on her feet.

A small fox-like creature raced out of a bush and jumped into Kagome's arms.

Kagome laughed.

Suddenly a tall figure stepped out of the trees, darkness surrounding her.

Inuyasha drew tetsuaiga, stepping back in front of Kagome and the kit.

"Who are you and what do you want?!" Inuyasha demanded.

"I am Night. I am searching for my child." she said, looking at the kitsune in kagome's arms.

"We have seen no shadow child." Inuyasha shouted to her.

"My child has a kitsune father. He stole him from me and mated another kitsune. i have been searching ever since." she said, tears rolling down her face.

Suddenly her form shifted and she was clad in preistess garb, dark greys replacing the usual colors.

Shippou jumped from Kagome's arms and raced toward the shadow preistess.

"Momma!" he shouted, jumping into the woman's arms.

"Thank you soo much. Call upon me if ever you need assistance. you or your blood. Call upon me as Night." she said, disappearing.

Megumi raced out of her room, looking at the spikey haired boy in confusion.

"What?" She demanded.

"Kenji.. He's gone." Yahiko said.

"He went to my uncle's house." Inyo said, staring past them.

"How do you know?" Sano asked, looking down at the boy.

"I know." Inyo said.

a stange scent was in the air. an ancient evil scent.

he had to talk to sesshomaru.

------

a tall, skinny man walked down the street, he knocked on the Kamiya dojo gate.

When Inyo burst through the door, he grabbed him.

"Shippou?" Inyo asked, looking up from the headlock.

"Yeah, it's me." He said, playfully.

"Shippou, do you recognize this smell?" Inyo said, pulling him into the room occupied once by kao.

Shippou's eyes widened.

"No." He whispered, taking off toward the east gate.

-----

Yeah, short chapter and all.

Warped and twisted all around -me.
