Nope don't own Inuyasha..

Once they got to the end of the road Kat was already there. Mei Lyn sat her stuff on the ground beside her as she leaned against a tree looking into the Cemetery not speaking to anyone. Kat and Lei stood there talking the whole time laughing at each other.

When the bus pulled up they girls grabbed all their stuff and walked towards the bus. Lei got on followed by Kat then Mei Lyn. Lie and Kat grabbed the empty seat in the front of the bus while Mei Lyn walked to the back of the bus and sat alone giving the Cemetery one last look as the bus pulled away. 'I'll be there soon.' She thought to herself.

Mei Lyn snapped out of her thoughts as they pulled up to Geyser High School

School seemed like a long and exhausting day for Mei Lyn. She sat in her desk during Math Class silently while the teacher passed out the math tests they had taken last week.

"Miss Yamato, I'm beginning to worry about you. Your grades have been slipping severely." Mr. Sites said as he sat her test on her desk.

Mei Lyn didn't reply, she just stared at the paper on her desk. She soon forgot about the bad grade and started to watch the clock hoping the bell for them to go home would soon ring.

Lei walked up and sat in the empty desk in front of Mei Lyn. "I'm sorry." Lei said earning a surprised look from Mei Lyn.

"For what? I should be the one who's sorry for yelling at you." Mei Lyn said looking at Lei.

"So what'd you get on the test?" Lei cheerfully said.

"Another D for Larry to hang on the refrigerator." Mei Lyn sighed looking down at her test.

Finally the bell rang dismissing the students. Mei Lyn and Lei walked to the bus in silence taking their normal seats.

The bus rides home always seemed to take forever. Lei and Kat cheerfully said good-bye to the bus driver as they got off the bus while Mei Lyn once again just walked along in silence.

When they walked past Kat's driveway Lei stopped to talk to her as Mei Lyn kept walking. She quietly walked into their home tossing her bag and keys aside and walked into the Kitchen to get something to eat.

After about ten minutes Lei finally walked into the house. She walked up stairs sat her stuff in the corner of her room, grabbed her painting supplies, and walked to the backyard. She sat down on the swing as she sketched the pond and some butterflies.

Mei Lyn washed the dishes after she finished eating. After finishing that task she ran upstairs to change out of her school uniform. She grabbed her bow and arrows as she hurried outside to practice on the deer target in the yard.

Rin sat by the fire that Jaken had made and watched him cook the fish that had been caught for their dinner.

"Rin, come here." Sesshoumaru said as he sat at the base of a tree staring off in the distance at a mountain.

Rin smiled brightly as she ran up and sat beside Sesshoumaru. She sat next to him copying his pose.

Sesshoumaru sighed and looked over at her, "You can't stay silent all your life. Sooner or later you'll have to talk."

Rin just stared at him. Earning another sigh from Sesshoumaru.

"Jaken will start teaching you how to speak. I have business to attend to. I do not want you to leave this area. Do I make myself clear Rin?" Sesshoumaru said in a demanding voice.

Rin nodded as she ran back to Jaken as Sesshoumaru stood up.

"Jaken if any thing happens to her you know what will happen to you. Understood?" Sesshoumaru said as he rested his hand on his sword.

"Yes Milord." Jaken squeaked out as he watched Sesshoumaru's retreating figure.

Jaken ate his fish as he tried to teach Rin how to talk.

"Try and say ahh." He sighed not making any progress with the mute child at all.

Rin sat and stared at Jaken like he was stupid for making noises at her.

"Come on you foolish child. I know you can speak now say ahh." Jaken snapped

Rin still said nothing she just stared at Jaken.

Sesshoumaru walked to where they had set up their camp and watched Jaken try to teach Rin.

"Well you should try to say something girl." Jaken said as he finished eating his fish.

Rin stuck her tongue at Jaken. She soon noticed Sesshoumaru standing there watching them. She smiled and ran to him hugging his leg.

"Milord!" Jaken said as he walked up to Sesshoumaru, "It's useless the girl won't speak."

Sesshoumaru looked down at the small girl standing next to him, "Come along. We'll get some rest then try again tomorrow."

Jaken walked over to AhUn and fell asleep. Sesshoumaru sat down and leaned back against a tree and looked at his surroundings.

"L-lord Ses-Sessho-Sesshoumaru?" a quiet little voice came.

Sesshoumaru looked up at the little girl standing in front of him.

"C-can I sleep next to you t-to-tonight?" she forced out.

"I guess you can, but Rin you're going to have to keep talking for now on." Sesshoumaru said as the little girl laid next to him quickly falling asleep.

Inuyasha, Kagome, Sango, Miroku, and Shippo sat around the campfire they had made. Inuyasha climbed up into a tree angry with Kagome once again he sat there looking up to the stars ignoring everyone around him. Sango sat there playing with Kilala while Miroku gathered more firewood and Shippo played with his toys. Kagome sat there doing her homework groaning when she couldn't figure out problems.

"Maybe you should take a break." Sango said as she leaned over Kagome's shoulder seeing what she was doing.

"I can't Mr. Sites would kill me if I didn't turn this assignment in." Kagome said as she grabbed a calculator out of her bag.

Sango sat down and started to play with Kilala again
