Chapter 2: The Memory

Yuki collapsed onto her feather blanket next to a large oak tree. Sesshomaru and the others had allowed her to travel with them. They had took up camp infront of a large glistening lake that was bathed in pale moonlight. Earlier today she had taught Rin how to summon objects from a short distance, and goddess it was harder than she thought to teach a young child!

Now, as she sat infront of the wondrous lake amongst the forest greenery, an image of two people dancing across a lake flashed infront of her eyes. She blinked a few times. 'Did what she's just saw have anything to do with her past?' she wondered.

There was a rustle of leaves and the swish of clothing as someone sat down beside her. She felt an intent gaze focused on her and she turned towards it. Her violet eyes met vivid golden ones. There was a silence between her and Sesshomaru for a good while until another memory came to her.

:memory:

She was in a ballroom, surrounded by young couples dancing gracefully, and a young man with white hair and piercing gold eyes appeared before her.

"May I have this dance?" the young man asked politely and she was surprised to find herself nodding and accepting his hand to be led onto the dance floor.

They waltzed around the room to a beautiful song. It even felt as if they were dancing in midair, and when she looked down she saw that they were.

The guy whispered in her ear, "Meet me at Selenity Lake," and was gone.

:end memory:

Someone was shaking her and she hesitantly opened her eyes. Sesshomaru was looking questioningly.

"What happened?" he asked.

"There's something I haven't told you Sesshomaru...you see I am a moon demon as you know...and I lost my family in an accident...but in truth that's all I can remember about my past," Yuki replied, "And just now I was having a flashback...at least I think so anyway."

"What happened in the memory?" he asked.

"I'd rather not discuss that, now what's this lake called?"Yuki replied.

"Selenity Lake, why?" Sesshomaru demanded.

"It was in my memory is all...," Yuki trailed off.

"Really? Maybe it means something," Sesshomaru said.

"Maybe," Yuki looked upon the lake that reflected the night sky perfectly.

Sesshomaru had surprised her. She had thought he was cold and heartless. When in truth under his chilling exterior, he was a loving person.

(A.N.: I kno I kno, very OOC, but get over it...)

"Sesshomaru," Yuki started only to fall to the ground in pain as another memory hit her.

memory

Yuki looked down to see the rippling water of Selenity Lake beneath her feet. She knew she was waiting for someone, and as if on cue, the young man from before slid her arms around her slender waist.

"I'm afraid this will be the last time we see each other my love," the man whispered.

"Why must you leave me?" Yuki found herself asking while tears brimmed her eyes.

"I will never truly leave you my dear princess," the young man said, then kissed her tenderly one last time.

Just then a bright light surrounded them both, as a fatal blow was inflicted upon the moon's defense. Yuki placed her crescent necklace around the young man's neck, tears streaming down her cheeks.

As he left to defend the kingdom, she found herself yelling, "Sesshomaru!" and then she was engulfed in a pink light.

Yuki sat up suddenly, gasping for air.

A.N.: Yah I kno...extremely short...but forgive me ...for I am having serious writers block...so l8er and stuff, K.A.F.
