woohoo! 'nother update! I rock! oh, this is important...i realize that "Dark Shadow Youkai" Sounds exremely stupid, so they are now going to be vampires, Night Vampires, that is, and the name is just there to kinda explain why they have wings...i know it's still kinda dumb, but deal with it...btw, all the rest of the reviews are at the bottom, but i just want to put this one up here so i make sure they read it...

Sesshoumaru: a couple things...1) i don't watch Sailor Moon, 2) I don't care, Serena started a a drawing, and when i finished the drawing...it looked like a Serena, ok? and 3) if you don't like it, don't read it...it's common sense

War of Ages

Chapter 4

He lead me through his palace with the greatest of ease, I tried to remember the turns...left, right, another right, up the stairs...but I quickly forgot.

"Farewell, Lady Serena." Sesshoumaru said as he led me toward the gate.

"Farewell, Lord Sesshomaru." I said in turn as I flew into the night sky.

I was half-way home when I felt a presence following me. I slowed my pace and landed, in case it was human, I hadn't fed in a while.

The presence grew closer, and it's scent seemed human, but there were many demons that were able to mask their scent to that of a human, if they needed to, and mine was included in that group.

I headed into the thicker part of the forest, knowing that if they were human, they would fall over the roots due to their horrible night vision.

And I was right. After a few seconds, I heard them stumble to the ground, which was my chance to grab their mind, if they were trained in how to put walls around their minds, the walls would have fallen when they tripped because they would have lost their concentration.

I pulled at their mind, making them stay still as I walked toward them and exposed their neck, bringing it up to my mouth. I punctured their neck and drew the blood out until I had my fill and left, leaving them for the animals.

I took off again, about five minutes from our palace, I put my illusion in place, hiding the bruises from the rope and the bite mark from Lord Sesshoumaru.

"Serena!" I looked down over the courtyard when I heard my name, only to find my mother flying up to me, a very angry look on her face.

I'm in deep shit now. I thought as she came up, fury in her eyes.

"Where have you been! I said be back soon! Three hours is not soon! You could've have been ambushed by a Western soldier! And you don't have your sword! What could you have been thinking when you left!" She yelled at me, dragging me toward my room by my wings.

well, i finally updated! woohoo! and i am going to go back through all the chapters and change it so that they are vampires. I will try to update soon, but school has started and I am SWAMPED with homework.

reviewer responses-

Taiyoukai Lady: yeah, i finally made it more different than Hawksong. I it did go a little dast, but I kinda panicked when i got to this part, i was still in a little bit of writers block then, and hopefully a lot of stuff will happen before she goes back. : )

Kat: I won't hit you! I always like reviews and hits: )

Tracy: It's "psycho" not "physco". And you seriously need to lay off the crack, or pot, or whatever you are doing.

I would also like to thank the following reviewers:
