Tami: Sorry this is late. I had to work today and I didn't get up until I absolutely had too. I only got like, 5 hours of sleep last night. Ranmagirl7 likes my idea, but no one else wanted to give me their opinion on the matter. I need two more people! Does anyone actually read this?

Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha.

Last time:

"They may look helpless, but they aren't and they hate when guys look in on their baths. They get awful violent." Miroku said. He rubbed his head in remembrance. Inuyasha snickered. The girls returned about an hour later. Kagome laid out her sleeping bag and took Shippou from Miroku. Rin curled up between Ah-Uhn's heads. Sango leaned against her tree again with Miroku sitting across the fire from her. Inuyasha jumped in the tree over Sango's head. Sesshoumaru sat near Kagome.

~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~

The group set off again in the morning. Around midday, a huge stone castle appeared on the horizon.

Now:

The large stone castle was breathtaking. Sesshoumaru felt a pang of guilt that he could not remember all of the time he had spent here. Ah-Uhn touched down just outside the doors. "Wow." Sango breathed.

"Too cool." Kagome agreed. Inuyasha stiffened as they walked through the door. He remembered. He could picture himself on his father's shoulders running ahead of Sesshoumaru.

-_-_-_-_-_ Flashback _-_-_-_-_-_-

"We beat you, Sess!" Inuyasha yelled. He laughed and pulled on Inutaisho's ears.

"Hey, that hurts, Inu." Inutaisho said playfully.

"You beat me this time, squirt. One day, I'll beat you." Sesshoumaru said.

"Nu-uh!" Inuyasha said. He jumped at Sesshoumaru. Sesshoumaru caught him and started to tickle him. "Daddy! Help!" Inutaisho jump tackled Sesshoumaru. The three rolled around on the ground laughing.

-_-_-_-_-_ End Flashback _-_-_-_-_-_-

Inuyasha shook his head, banishing the memory from his thoughts. The last thing he needed was to be thinking about that. Ever since Sesshoumaru had gotten amnesia, Inuyasha couldn't help remembering times like that. It made him so angry. He had tried to forget them for so long after Sesshoumaru had left him like that. He had finally succeeded and Kikyo pinned him to a tree. ~If you would like, we can take the kit to a healer.~ Uhn said to Kagome. Sesshoumaru translated for her.

"Really? Oh, that'd be great." Kagome answered.

-Follow us. A servant will show the rest of you to your sleeping quarters.- Ah said.

"I'm going to." Inuyasha said. "You get into too much trouble, Kagome." Kagome stuck her tongue out at him and followed Ah-Uhn. Sesshoumaru trailed behind them. Sango and Miroku followed. The servant walked in and saw them gone. He shrugged and walked away. The castle was enormous. Ah-Uhn seemed to know where they were going. They led them down a series of hallways until the reached the healers. The healer knelt to the ground when she saw Sesshoumaru.

"Hello. I'm Tomoyo. Welcome back, my lord. How may I be of service?" the woman asked.

"Um, hi, Tomoyo. I'm Kagome. Shippou, my kitsune cub has been hurt badly. Can you heal him?" Tomoyo took Shippou from Kagome. It was then they got a look at her. She was a cat demon. She looked at the gauze curiously as she took it off. She spread an thick paste over the wound. It closed almost immediately.

"There. He should take it easy and rest. He'll probably do that anyway. I know how the younglings like to sleep. My own kittens slept the majority of the day when they were young."

"Thank you so much, Tomoyo." Kagome said. She was about to pick Shippou up, but Sesshoumaru's tail got there first. He pulled the kit to him and asked her silently if he could hold him. She shrugged and nodded. Tomoyo looked at him curiously.

~He cannot remember his past.~ Uhn offered. Tomoyo nodded in understanding. ~Come, we will find a place for the kitsune to rest.~ Rin jumped excitedly.

"He can stay in the room next to mine so I can make him feel better!" she said. Sango and Kagome smiled at her.

"Can we have a tour of the castle?" Miroku asked, once they got Shippou settled down. Ah-Uhn nodded and led the way around the castle. They led the group to a large room on the ground floor, so to speak.

~This is the room where guests reside after meals and before nightfall, unless they have something they would rather be doing. There are not usually many guests.~ Uhn said. The room was magnificent. Paintings and tapestries adorned the walls and large windows looked out into the forest. One of the paintings was of a beautiful woman. She had a small smile on her face. She had auburn hair and blue eyes. The painting was so life like, they felt like they could reach out and touch her.

"My mother." Sesshoumaru whispered softly. Only Inuyasha, Kirara, and Ah- Uhn heard him. (I still don't remember how she died. Do you remember, Ah- Uhn?)

-No, my lord. She died before we came into your service.- Ah answered. Jaken ran into the room.

"Lord Sesshoumaru! I heard you were back. It is so wonderful to see you well. I knew you would still be alive. I didn't look for you because I was managing important matters," the toad said. (/I hate Jaken. Hate him hate him hate him!/) Ah-Uhn growled menacingly and Jaken yelped. "You would not allow that beast to kill your loyal servant, would you, my lord?"

~He is a traitor and deserves to die.~ Uhn said. Coming from Uhn, Sesshoumaru felt it was something he should take into consideration. Uhn had seemed like the more reasonable of the two.

"We'll see." Sesshoumaru answered, his voice cold. Jaken shivered.
