This is my 4th chapter! I know you're all wondering what Kiara looks like. She looks just like Sesshomaru, except she has a different outfit. She and Sesshomaru are identical except that Kiara's moon points the opposite direction. I'm gonna post a picture of Kiara on in the future. I'll tell you when it's posted.

Eight Months Later:

Kiara and Sesshomaru had recovered from their injuries a month after Inutaisho brought them back to life. They were physically okay, but the scars on their backs were permanent and would never go away despite the fact that Kiara and Sesshomaru were demons. That bothered the two of them a lot. They would never have any hope of forgetting about being killed by humans. The scars will always be there, and so will the horrific memory of their death. In the long run, Kiara and Sesshomaru were both handling the situation very well.

However there was good news for the twins. Inuyasha was talking. But the 1 ½ year old hanyou wouldn't talk to or in front of Inutaisho or Izayoi yet. That confused Kiara and Sesshomaru, but they just went along with their brother. Now whenever Inuyasha wanted something, he would point to it. Or at least, that was what he would do to his parents. But Inuyasha communicated with his siblings verbally. Inutaisho never seemed to mind that Inuyasha didn't talk. But Izayoi did. She was always trying to get Inuyasha to talk, but the hanyou kept up with his pointing.

The Next Day:
Kiara was just sitting with Sesshomaru when it happened. They had gone out into the backyard to see the entire ground covered in a layer of cherry blossoms. It brought back fun memories from when they were toddlers. Kiara and Sesshomaru used to grab handfuls of cherry blossoms and throw them at each other. They also used to roll around in them like little kids would roll around in snow. So that day, the two of them decided to play in the cherry blossoms like they did as toddlers. After a half hour, they got tired and lay down as they looked up at the bright blue sky.

Kiara saw that Sesshomaru was looking at one cloud in particular.

"What are you looking at?" she asked him.

Sesshomaru pointed to a cloud that hung over a pile of firewood. "It looks like a horse."
Kiara raised a brow. To her, it looked like an animal with two heads. The body did look like a horse's, but she had no argument with herself that the "horse" had two heads.

"Since when did horses have two heads?" Kiara asked.

Sesshomaru didn't reply. He seemed to know that what Kiara was saying possibly had an insult coming up. And that was true. Kiara insulted Sesshomaru whenever she thought he was acting stupid. She never meant anything by it, she just meant to fool around and have some innocent fun. Kiara always tried to seem like she wasn't serious, but a lot of times it seemed like she was, so Sesshomaru took her insult seriously. However, Kiara would never stop having her fun. She swore that she had been insulting her twin brother since the day they existed, and she was surprisingly proud of that.

When Sesshomaru didn't reply, Kiara sat up and looked towards the firewood pile. What she saw there didn't seem to be realistic. But Kiara knew that she wasn't seeing things or imagining things. What she saw was really there. Kiara saw a boy about her age. He had silver hair that was tied back into a short ponytail. He had sad copper colored eyes and a cut across his face. The boy also wore ripped up clothing that was stained with blood. He was obviously a demon. But he was transparent, so Kiara was able to see the firewood pile right behind the boy. Kiara couldn't believe what she was seeing, but she knew that it was real. Kiara wasn't exactly one of those people who were superstitious and believed in spirits, but she always figured that it could be possible. She liked to use the idea of the supernatural to tell horror stories. She had told stories about ghosts, vampires, zombies, but mostly ghosts. And now she was seeing a ghost in her own backyard. It intrigued her, but freaked her out a little that there was something dead in the yard. As she looked at the ghost, Kiara wondered if anyone else could see the dead boy.

"Sesshomaru?"

Sesshomaru rolled over onto his side to face his sister. "What?"

Kiara pulled her brother into a sitting position. "Look by the firewood."

"Why?" Sesshomaru asked.

Kiara sighed. "Just do it, okay."

Sesshomaru looked over at the firewood. He was scared when he saw the boy with the white hair, cut-up face and ripped and blood stained clothes. The boy was transparent, too. It was obviously a ghost, if there was such a thing. Sesshomaru didn't want to admit that he saw it. He figured that it was just a projection from his imagination due to hearing so many of his sister's ghost stories. But he still saw it. And no matter what, he couldn't convince himself otherwise. Sesshomaru didn't want to tell Kiara that he saw it, but he didn't want to lie to her, either.

"Don't you see it?" Kiara asked. "Don't you see the boy? He has silver hair, he's cut-up, he has ripped and blood stained clothes."

Sesshomaru didn't say anything. He just kept looking at the firewood.

"You don't see it, do you," Kiara sighed. "Sesshomaru, I know that I've told many ghost stories over the years and that I have a large imagination. I also know that I joke around a lot. But I'm not imagining things, Sesshomaru." Kiara took a deep breath. "There's a ghost over there in front of the firewood. Don't you see it? He's dead, Sesshomaru! He's dead!"

Sesshomaru looked at Kiara. He nodded. "I do see it, Kiara. I don't want to admit it, but I do. There's a ghost haunting our yard."

Kiara was relieved that her brother could see it, too. She knew that Sesshomaru wasn't lying. Kiara knew her twin brother so well that she could tell when he was joking or serious, and the way he said that he saw the boy proved it that he was serious and that he really did see the ghost.

"I wonder how he died," Kiara mumbled. "Murdered, maybe?"

"I think he was murdered," Sesshomaru told her.

Kiara slapped the palm of her head to her forehead. Sometimes Sesshomaru could be very flakey and say things right after the person talking to him said it. Kiara shook her head.

"I just said that maybe he was murdered," Kiara sighed.

"Oh,"

But right now Kiara wasn't thinking about Sesshomaru's comment. She wasn't really focusing on anything else besides the mystery she wanted to solve inside her own mind. Kiara couldn't help but wonder about the ghost. Who is he? How did he die, exactly? Who killed him? And most of all: Why is he in their yard? Kiara had a feeling that she wanted to talk to this ghost, to ask him these questions, basically just to know what he's doing in her family's backyard. She also found the subject to interest her. All these years she didn't really believe in the supernatural, she just used it as a way to entertain her family with her ghost stories. But now, it was like her stories were coming true before her very eyes. Now, Kiara had a reason to believe in the supernatural.

Besides all of that, Kiara wanted to know if anyone else besides her and Sesshomaru could see the ghost boy. Could Inutaisho see him? Could Izayoi see him? Could Inuyasha see him? And if anyone else could, have they seen him before? Millions of questions fluttered through Kiara's mind. Millions of questions that she was just dying to know the answers to. And now, another question added to the millions that she was already thinking about.

Does Sesshomaru feel the same way as me about the ghost situation? Kiara thought. She looked at Sesshomaru, who was now trying to take his eyes off of the ghost, but couldn't exactly do it.

Maybe, she thought again. I'll ask him. Because if we both feel the same way about this, we can work together to talk to the ghost about the things we're wondering about … if we ever see this ghost again.

Well, that's the end of the 4th chapter! Please, please, please review! I want to know if anyone likes this ghost scenario. Anyway, I just thought I should tell you that I accept ideas for my next chapters. If you have any good ideas, I'd like to hear them. Because if I think they're good, I just might use the basic plot for another chapter and just alter things a little.
