A/N: (Heh Heh!) There it goes. The answers to everyone's problems (Heh heh). So let me explain to those who had no clue about anyone of those riddles.

Explanations:

For Mystery 7, I intended it to be one of the easiest out the rest of the mysteries I wrote. I added hints like "edible" and "dipped in water" to tell you that it's something you can eat. And at the last line, "Except for a bunch of crazy-looking people drooling over me", I was actually thinking of InuYasha and his gang being those people, heh heh! Anyway, Ramen is InuYasha's favorite food in the series, so I thought figuring it out wouldn't be as difficult.

For Mystery 8, I knew alot of people would be confused with it and get it wrong. I figured, why not make this harder than the rest and make it challenging. So what I did was use metaphors to compare Rin with a flower/rose. Since Rin loves to pick flowers in the show, I used that idea and compared her life with something she loved. In the third line I wrote, "Lightning reigns and Flowerbeds are crushed," It meant that Bandits came to Rin's village and had slaughtered her family. The word "Lightning" was a metaphor for the bandits and "Flowerbeds" were her family.

"I am alone now. I am a dying lily, Pedals torn apart and becomes one with Mother Earth's soil." This is when she became an orphan, with no one to care or love her. In the series, Kouga's wolves chases her down in the forest and kills her.

"I am now a growing stem, Revived and nurtured by the enemy of man," Need I explain this? Well, the enemy of man is Sesshomaru of course!. He's a demon, and demons are supposedly enemies of mankind. In the series, when Sesshomaru smelled her blood from a distance and came to find her dead on the dirt forest ground, he took out his sword, Tenseiga, as another mere test and revived her life with it. Rin has been following him around ever since that day. Sesshomaru is like her new family right now.

For Mystery 9, I intentially made this one very easy to figure out, just because people had a hard time figuring out Mystery 8. So I don't think this riddle needs any explanation. Heh heh!
