Na: Hello my friends I have been trying desperately to type faster and faster.

Darkflame1516:…….my spelling is sucky….how many times have I said that? Oh well anyway…..maybe they'll get together or maybe they won't. You'll see in this chapter perhaps.

Kirarafourseasons: I HAVE TO SEE the next movie if Shesshomaru is in it! I love Shesshomaru!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It was dark, Kori was alone with a strange man, and she was lost.

"We're almost to a safe place, c'mon" Kenji reassured.

"I want to go home" Kori said

"I know you do….you will be home soon…..Kenji will help you" Kenji said he gave her a shy smile.

"Thank you" Kori flushed…."Why am I blushing? WHY AM I BLUSHING!" she thought.

"Should I be a flattered by that charming shade of blush, princess?" Kenji was facing her, a few steps away from her, he gently swirled a strand of her black hair around his finger. His eyes looked different deeper and his voice followed, dark, it didn't seem like the little boys voice that he spoke with before.

"I-I-I have no idea what you are talking about" Kori blushed even more " and why did you call me princess?"

"Because you remind me so much of royalty" in his amusement Kenji didn't notice the first warning call. Finally the call reached the depths of his mind, someone wasn't doing as she was told, she was being arrogant and ignorant of the demons strength, he was ticked off to say the least.

"Come along Kori-sama…..I know where your camp is" Kenji was glaring, he tried to cover it up by using the sweet little boy voice again, it wasn't working.

"Are you okay?" Kori asked, she looked at him innocently.

"yes" he turned away and started walking in another direction, Kori followed confused.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Kena woke up, she had the same dream again, the one with Shesshomaru. Speak of the devil, he was leaning against the wall of the cave.

"Shesshomaru?" she said in a loud whisper.

"Umhm"

"Are you sleeping?" Kena said a tad bit louder.

"No"

"Good, I need to talk to you" She walked out of the cave and into the canopy of trees. Shesshomaru followed, just in case she somehow was attacked again by that evil demonic pineapple.

"Shesshomaru….are you alright?" Kena asked. He didn't answer the young human, he was to busy looking at the moon, it was full.

"earth to big scary guy!" she glared "Don't make me make you pay attention to me!"

"Be quiet" he snapped, something didn't feel right.

"Hello….." a seductive voice came from the darkness.

"You must be the great Lord Shesshomaru, lord of the western lands……and of course his wench" a woman appeared, Shesshomaru caught her scent it seemed familiar, she smelled similar to Sinara….

"Watch who your calling a wench!" Kena snapped.

"Kena….quiet" Shesshomaru said again unsheathing the Tokojin "I am and what do you wish of me?"

"only one thing…..I seriously doubt you'll want to part with it" she enpinsized the word it.

"yes?" Shesshomaru said

"Your mate" she replied.

"You have a mate?" Kena asked Shesshomaru confused.

"What? This woman is not your mate?" the woman asked she looked shocked, then she looked relieved.

"Then she is up for grabs….I do believe that my Lord is taking care of your awful kin, he should just kill her and leave you for me to exterminate" Kena backed away, this lady was scaring her.

"You shall not touch one of my retainers" Shesshomaru growled.

The woman angrily jumped at the demon, a black tipped knife came from the sleeve of her kimono, Shesshomaru used her recklessness to his advantage. Shesshomaru had the entire attack planned out in his head, she would attack he moved swiftly to the side, good move for him, stupid move for the young girl behind him. Kena being the observant one ducked, the woman landed on Kena, of course Kena was…….uncomfortable by the added 150 pounds on her back. The woman shrieked and plunged the knife's side ((NA: not the tip with you can only guess what was embedded into it…and if not…it was a poison encrusted tip)) into Kena's thigh. Kena ((NA: as any normal human)) shrieked in pain. Angrily Shesshomaru turned to the woman, never had he ever felt this rage, pure loathing, he hated Inuyasha alright, but he had no idea that he would ever hate someone this much, Shesshomaru hated the woman so much, he was even showing emotion! His calm, collective manner was changed into anger and a crap load of it. To make a long story short, his eyes turned blood red, he charged at the woman, with a murder intent. The woman smirked.

"Struck a never did I? Was she really only a retainer? Or was she so much more?" The woman finally drew the last bendy straw. Shesshomaru angrily ran at the woman, all his nerves shut down, he felt nothing, he didn't hear the young whimpers of the girl on the ground either.

"Shesshomaru" she said slowly, the knife wound was deep. He didn't answer he unsheathed the Tokojin and in anger he struck the woman.

"SHESSHOMARU!" Kena finally cried out, he didn't hear her but another hanyou did.

"What the hell is going on here?" Inuyasha demanded as he came into the clearing outside the cave.

"Inuyasha I don't know what's wrong with him!" Kena cried out, Kagome followed by the monk and demon slayer came into the clearing.

"KAGOME! I told you to stay back there!" Inuyasha pulled the Tetsiaga from its sheath and held it out in front of him, the fang transformed.

"Kena!" Kagome ran to the girls aid, she looked at Shesshomaru confused. The demon had stopped fighting, the woman was out of breath, she was smiling insanely.

"Sango! Please go get my medicine kit and I believe Shippo is with it" Kagome looked at the wound. Kena's eyes were elsewhere.

"What's wrong with him?" Kena was staring at the undeniably disturbed demon.

"I don't know" Kena felt tears in her eyes, why was she on the verge of crying? Why did she have those dreams? Why did Shesshomaru get so mad? Why was she talking to herself like a crazy person?

"Can't you idiots see? The demon is in LOVE with that useless human" the woman smirked. Shesshomaru struck again, the woman dodged, she was more skilled than Sinara by far and more intellagent too.

"Lord Shesshomaru" a small voice came from the cave, a sleepy Rin was awaken by the noise.

"Rin….no" Kena tried to stand, smart move…..a pang of pain swept through her body, it kept her down on the ground.

"Kagome I have the kit" Sango came running to Kagome's side.

"NO! stop RIN!" she tried desperately to push Sango in Rin's direction.

"Your hurt" ((Aren't they observant..)) Sango said with remorse in her voice, but did as she was told. Sango safely brought Rin back to the small huddle.

Shesshomaru struck at the woman another time, the woman moved quickly away.

"Wind scar!" Inuyasha having the upper hand by having her turning away from him struck her hard with a wind scar.

"AHHHHHH" the woman screamed as she disincarnated.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Kenji was speeding up, Kori was nearly sprinting trying to keep up with him.

"Kenji wait up!" she cried.

"Not now Kori-san your cousin is in danger" he growled.

"WHAT!"

Kenji spun around, Kori almost collided with him, he grabbed onto her arms.

"Allow me to silence you" he smiled and kissed her. Kori was in complete shock, she never kissed a guy before…..she always told her friends that she wanted her first kiss to be special. Kenji took a step back, the kiss had more of an impact on him then he would have liked, but it was fine, she soon wouldn't be bothering him anymore anyway. Kenji took Kori's hand and raced to the clearing.

"KENA!" Kori screamed when she saw her cousin on the ground with a knife stuck in her leg.

"KORI? You left?" Kena couldn't recall seeing her cousin leave….oh well. Kori sweat dropped, Kenji looked at the enraged demon, the hanyou, the miko, the demon slayer, the monk who was close to touching the demon slayers butt, the kitsune demon who appeared out of nowhere, the froggy thing who again appeared out of nowhere, and the small human.

"How did he get that way?" Kenji asked calmly.

"This lady attacked me and then he went all el poco loco…bang bang crazy" Kena explained then cringed the knife was still there and it hurt. Kenji swiftly came to Kena's side, he pushed Kagome out of the way, and concentrated on the young woman's wound.

The wound closed, all the poison that might have dripped into the wound dripped from her skin, the knife fell out and with a hiss disappeared.

"Who are you?" Kagome asked.

Kenji tilted his head to Shesshomaru who was paralyzed by something or another, Inuyasha was at Kagome's side, and to the monk getting beaten by the demon slayer none of them looked frightening, so he smirked when he said his name.

"Lord Akunin, oh and princess" he turned to smirk evilly at Kori "you really do look better scared"

Kori was afraid, what happened to the boy who saved her and her cousin? Who was this Lord Akunin?

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
