Nope don't own Inuyasha..


When she finished eating she washed her hands in a near by stream and glanced at the scars on her wrists. "What's the point? Lei seemed to get outta this stage quickly, and yet I'm the one still trying to kill myself. Sure she maybe older but I was the stronger one." She said aloud to herself. She heard a rustle in the bushes and froze, "Go away Sesshoumaru."

"I am not Sesshoumaru and don't you ever compare me to him." Kouga said as he stepped up to the stream where Mei Lyn was sitting.

"Wha-what do you want?" Mei Lyn managed to say.

"I would like a drink from the stream where most wolf demons come to drink. Who the hell are you?" Kouga said as he bent down by the stream and started to drink.

"Mei Lyn, my name's Mei Lyn." She managed to squeak out.

"Ahh, someone's looking for you." Kouga said as he continued to drink the water.

"And who would that be?"

"Why should I tell you?" Kouga said never looking away from the water.

"Because I'm looking for someone. If who I'm looking for is looking for me then your help would make my life a lot easier."

"Hmm. Nope I'm not telling.

Mei Lyn frowned, "I hope you know I just peed in that water that you've been drinking from for the past five minutes."

Kouga stopped drinking and looked at her, "You know people and demons drink from that!"

"Then tell me who's looking for me and I'll tell you a little secret." Mei Lyn snapped.

"Let me see...hmm who was looking for you. Oh yeah, it was Inuyasha and his friends."

"Oh thank God. Can you please take me to them?"

"No."

"Please?"

"No."

"Oh come on! Don't be such an ass."

"Why is finding them so important to you?"

"They're my friends and I've got to get back home."

Kouga sighed, "I'd really rather not. There's a weird girl with them and..."

"Kat. You don't have to say anymore. I'll keep her away from you if you take me back to the group. What do you say?" Mei Lyn smiled.

"Fine. Follow me, but don't slow me down."


"I'm beginning to think that we'll never find Mei Lyn." Lei sighed.

"If you think about it we already found her. She just doesn't wanna be with us because she was with that hot guy." Kat said causing everyone to stop and look at her.

"Sesshoumaru is not hot. He'd kill you before you had the chance to lay a single finger on him." Inuyasha said.

"So what's that have to do with me thinking he's cute?" Kat asked.

"He's a demon he's not cute! He's a crazed psychotic killer who takes joy in watching people die slow and painful deaths. He laughs when people die!" Inuyasha snapped.

"I think he's cute."

"He's not cute!"

"Is so!"

"Is not!"

Miroku looked over at Sango and Lei, "If Inuyasha thinks that a man is cute I'd really be worried."

"They're fighting about Inuyasha's older brother which makes it even worse." Sango mumbled.

"How can they fight for this long over something so stupid?" Lei mumbled as she sat down under the shade of a giant tree.

"It's almost like Kagome is here again." Shippo sighed as he played with Kilala.


Sesshoumaru walked through the woods silently as Jaken talked about useless information about the Western Lands. Sesshoumaru sighed and abruptly stopped to turn around and look at Jaken, "Jaken, I rule the Western Lands. I know everything you just told me and I also know of the war that is about to take place there soon."

"I know that Milord, but it's just that..."

"That is enough Jaken."

Rin quickly sat up on AhUn's back, "Lord Sesshoumaru. You're ok! I just had a bad dream that you turned into a horrible creature and then you died." Rin's eyes filled up with tears as she tried to fight back the tears.

"You're fine Rin." Sesshoumaru said as he continued to walk.


"So how far away are they?" Mei Lyn asked breaking the silence.

"We will be there shortly."

They walked for several minutes before they could hear arguing.

"There your friends are a short distance away. You'll be fine on your own." Kouga said as he turned to leave.

"Thanks." Mei Lyn smiled as she quickly ran through he woods towards the voices, "Lei!"

"Mei Lyn?" Lei shouted as she heard Mei Lyn's voice. She got up and ran towards Mei Lyn's voice, "There you are. I've been so worried."

"I'm sorry." Mei Lyn said as she gave Lei a quick hug.

"I'm sorry too. I shouldn't have yelled." The two began to walk back to the group. Mei Lyn turned around to look back into the woods.

"Woah!" Lei shouted causing Mei Lyn to turn around just in time to see Lei fall.

Mei Lyn stood there trying her best not to laugh.

"Ouch! My wrist." Lei Cried.

Mei Lyn rolled her eyes as she pulled her up. They walked back to the group causing Kat and Inuyasha to finally stop arguing.

"You came back." Sango smiled.

"We kept this safe for you." Miroku said as he handed Mei Lyn her bow.

"What's wrong with your wrist?" Inuyasha asked Lei.

"Oh, I fell on it."

"Funny I thought you fell on your other wrist." Mei Lyn said.

"No, I'm pretty sure I fell on this wrist since I fell an you didn't. You mustn't have been watching me fall." Lei snapped.

"Why do you smell like Kouga?" Inuyasha asked sniffing the air.

"Eh, Kouga? Who's that?" Mei Lyn asked.

"He's a wolf demon and is someone you do not want to be friends with." Inuyasha said.

"Well, someone did help me find you guys. I don't think I got his name, but he had long black hair and blue eyes."

"Yep that's Kouga alright." Sango said.

"Hey Lei, I thought you said you hurt your other wrist?" Kat said sitting down by Lei.

"No! I hurt this wrist. Don't you and Mei Lyn pay attention?" Lei snapped at Kat.

The group walked along in silence until they stopped at the well.

"This is how Kagome always got home. Maybe it will work for you three" Shippo said as he jumped on the side of it looking down into the darkness.

"It's worth a try. Go ahead Lei." Kat said as she peered down into teh well besides Shippo.

"Why me?" "You're hurt. You need to get back first to go see a doctor." Mei Lyn smiled sheepishly.

"Fine!" Lei sighed as she jumped into the well. "Looks like she made it ok. Who's next?" Inuyasha said looking at Kat and Mei Lyn.

The two girls looked at eache other. "Rock, Paper, siscors?" Kat said looking frim the well to Mei Lyn.

"Yeah on the count of three. One...two...three." "Paper covers rock I win." Kat smilled stepping away from the well.

Mei Lyn sighed as she slid off the side of the well into darkness followed by Kat.

When Mei Lyn climbed up the ladder that Kagome had placed there and was greeted by Lei. "We just gotta wait for Kat then we have to sneak off the property." Mei Lyn whispered. "I'm here." Kat said pulling herself outta the well.

"Let's go then" Lei said opening the door and running across the property. Mei Lyn and Kat quickly ran past her across the property down the stairs and to the street.

"Where'd Lei go?" Kat asked looking up the steps. "Maybe they caught her." Mei Lyn said sarcastically.

"Thanks for waiting you guys! I twisted my ankle back there and had to limp across the yard." Lie wined.

"Come on let's go home." Mei Lyn sighed as she started to walk up the street.
