Sesshomaru emerged from the cave thinking 'well that certainly was a waste of my time' He looked up at the sky to see that it was mid-day if nothing happened along the way then he should be able to make it back to his castle be nightfall.

Back in the cave Aku worked hard on her spell and quietly chanted what she wanted the spell to do. When she had completed it she smiled to herself just wanting to see look on the Lord's face when he realized he was under her curse.

Sesshomaru was walking be a small village. It was still fairly early so there were women out helping the men attend to the fields. Out of the corner of his eye Sesshomaru saw all the women (except for the young girls who looked 11 and younger and the older women who looked to be about fifty or older) look up at him stop what the were doing and then they all started running towards him yelling, "Sesshomaru Sama we love you!"

'LOVE did I just hear what I thought I did?' he asked himself. He could tell by the way they were all running at him with their arms outstretched he was right they had said love.

When they got to him the women all grouped around him and started saying things like, "Lord Sesshomaru you're so handsome please take me to be your wife," and, "I love you Lord Sesshomaru and I would like to make you happy for as long as I live."

Sesshomaru didn't really know what to say. He new he was damn good looking put this just didn't make sense. He had never met these women. They had never seen him before yet they knew his name. And worse yet they were in HIS way when HE needed to get home to Rin. "Step aside," he said the women who were lucky enough to have gotten to be able to stand infront of Sesshomaru (they also had stars in their eyes).

The women exploded in giggles saying, "He talked! He talked to us!"

"Step aside now," he demanded more forcefully. The women still didn't budge if anything they had moved closer towards him.

'Alright Sesshomaru if you want to get out of this you know what you have to do.' He thought to himself.
