In another area of the maze was another room. Miroku, who was in a lecherous mood, wanted to take advantage of the darkness. He neared the presence in the room and quickly found the thigh and behind of his companion. He noticed how firm it was and basked in this glorious opportunity.

Suddenly a door opened and light poured into the room. Miroku looked at the door way and froze. The figure in the doorway was Sango. Then who does this belong to? He asked himself. He looked down at his hand and his gaze went upward. As he reached the face he froze in shock.

The owner of the firmness he now grasped was a shocked and appalled demon lord of the western lands, Sesshomaru.

Sango's laughter and the slight giggle from a tall figure behind her made Miroku quickly remove his hand and try to hastily leave the demon lord in the room alone. INSTEAD Sesshomaru rushed out in a completely unexpected hurry.

Both males entered a larger and brighter room where two girls currently occupied. Miroku froze, yet again, when he gazed upon the new member of the opposite sex. Before he could say anything He was interrupted,

"And who might YOU be?" Sesshomaru commanded more than asked, "I already know these two, to my utmost displeasure."

The girl bowed. "Emiko Ishii, I from the main land, honorable lord."

Sesshomaru could immediately tell she was partially youkai, but what else was she? He didn't smell any human. He puzzled this as he looked her over. She had silver hair like his own, yet even silkier and well kept, tall, about 5'10" he guessed. He ears were elf-like with many adornments and earrings. She was slim and graceful by the look of her. Other than her height, her eyes and scent were the only things about her that wasn't demon. When he got a good look at her, he knew exactly what she was. She had the silver eyes of a dragon, but deep within those silver eyes was a deep sorrow.

He nodded his head with approval. "Emiko Ishii. At least one of you can show respect for your superiors," he said while glaring at Miroku with a look of disgust and rage.

"Sesshomaru-sama, are you both related?" asked Sango, "You both have similar markings." She pointed to the Black star-like design on her forehead and the two blood red streaks that adorned each cheek and curved almost touching each other to a point.

Before he could get over the shock of the question Emiko answered for the both of them. "Impossible. I am half neko youkai and half dragon. The lord and I are COMPLETELY different."

Another door appeared before the group and a huge booming voice was heard throughout the maze.

"WELCOME TEAMS TO THE FIRST ROUND OF BATTLE OF TRUSTS, The game which you will have to decide who your TRUE allies are. Here is some information and a few rules for general purposes."

"Three teams of four are put to the test in several challenges. You will be here for one month. With a new challenge every four days. You will stay in rooms with luxurious accommodations between challenges."

"If, for any reason, you or a team mate are unable to play, or are dead, there are replacements."

"Now, this is the first challenge. You have three hours to try and find your way out of the maze, starting in five minutes. The first team out wins this round. I suggest you take this time to get to know your team mates. Good luck."

"Better start walking then." Sango stated plainly.

Meanwhile, Back with Inuyasha.

"So," He asked, "who are you?"

"You can just call me Kima" She said with a smile. "So, you're the infamous Inuyasha. Koga just hasn't stopped talking about how you keep his fiancé Kagome safe for him while he's away."

"I AM NOT HIS FIANCE!" Kagome snapped, "Kami, when will you get it through your head Koga. WE ARE ONLY FRIENDS!"

That hurt koga and his tail hung low in grief. Immediately Kagome regretted saying that.

"Ok…" Kima said, "Who are these other two teams we heard about?"

In, yet another area of the maze, Shippo and Kirara were in a bit of a problem.

"AH! NARAKU!" he yelled. Kirara stood near Shippo to protect him. Slowly through a door a figure walked through.

"Kagome!" Shippo exclaimed as he jumped into her arms. The girl quickly dropped the kit.

"I am not my reincarnation." Noticing it was Kikyo, Shippo ran back to Kirara.

"Now, Naraku, what do you propose we do?"

"I want the twin-tail to fly up and find us a way out of this damn maze." He plainly stated.

Kirara, who wanted to get Shippo out as quickly as possible, followed his idea and stared to fly up. As soon as she was an inch above the wall she was electrocute by a barrier.

"I knew it." Kikyo said quietly as she walked out to start her way through the maze, "Come if you must." Shippo, Kirara, and Naraku followed close behind.

"Hey, Kirara, did that big voice say die?" Shippo asked
