Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha or Spirited Away (which these are slightly based off of) but I do own any OCs that appear in these one-shots except Masako.

A young demon girl with purple hair sat with her head in her knees, crying. She was trapped within the dragon world and stuck as a servant for Lady Sakura. She was too young to become a pet, which was a good thing, but Lady Sakura gave her very hard tasks and so she cried nightly and sometimes during the day. She also cried because she couldn't remember her name. Lady Sakura had told her if she could remember her name, she would set her free. But so far it was a mystery to her. While she was crying she didn't notice someone was standing next to her.

"Is something wrong Aki?" the person asked. Aki looked up to see it was Master Kaito. She wiped the tears from her eyes and kneeled in front of him.

"Yes master. I can not remember my name and the tasks I receive for Lady Sakura are very difficult," Aki answered as a tear rolled down her cheek. Kaito sat down next to her and she pulled her legs up again; making sure not to look at him. A sad smile adorned Kaito's face as he reached into his kimono and pulled something out; it was a small package. He unwrapped it and gave her the clothes that were on top. Aki grabbed them and held them close to her.

"How did you get my clothes back?"

"That's not important,' he said, shaking his head and handing her a piece of food, "Please eat this. It will help you get back your strength."

Aki took it and ate it; tears still rolling down her face. Once she swallowed it she turned back to Kaito.

"I wish I could remember my name and leave this place. I want to go back to my mom and dad," she said, frowning. Kaito took pity on her and told her to change into her normal clothes. She did but was still confused.

"Why did you want me to change? And why are we going to where the barrier ends?" Aki asked as she walked behind Kaito.

Without facing her he answered, "You'll see when we get there."

Once the reached the end of the barrier they both stopped.

"You don't expect me to go through the barrier do you?" she asked. Kaito nodded. "But I can't go through it. I'm not allowed to leave until I remember my name."

"That's why I'm going to tell it to you; so you can leave," he said, placing his hand on her shoulder. Her eyes slightly widen at what he said. Was he really going to tell her her name?

"You're name is Saki. Now I want you to go back to your family and never return here. Understand?" he asked, pushing her out of the barrier. Saki turned to face him on the other side of the barrier.

"I understand Master Kaito," she said, bowing a final time. She then ran off to find her parents.
