The metallic smell of blood hit Sesshoumaru hard as he sat at his desk. At first he thought Rin had hurt herself so he went to her room. Rin was perfectly fine and playing with dolls. 'If it's not Rin then were is the smell of blood coming from?' Sesshoumaru pondered. 'wait, Karana.'. Sesshoumaru walked to Karana's room and broke through her incantation easily, for it was meant to keep only humans out. He looked at Karana's lifeless body.
Karana was transported into the world of the dead and immediately saw her mother, father, and small brother. "Karana you baka!" Her mother said hugging her with tears in her eyes, "It is not your time my daughter, you must go back." . Karana looked at her tears flowing freely down her cheeks. "But mother I want to be with you" Karana said sobbing. "Yes but you have a life ahead of you" her mother said.
Sesshoumaru stood above Karana's lifeless body and unsheathed Tokijin. He put Tokijin above Karana and brought her back to life. Karana sat up now back in the world of the living and started to cry lightly. Sesshoumaru not knowing what to do told her to go to the hot springs and clean up.
Karana nodded wiping away her tears. As she passed Sesshoumaru leaving the room she looked at him. "Thank you Sesshoumaru" She said. She left the room and went to the hot springs leaving Sesshoumaru to ponder how he felt about this woman.
