Amaya woke up a few minutes later, not quite sure of her location. She found that her head was resting upon a small girls lap.The girl didn't seem to notice she was awake.

Then it came back, Naraku, Inuyasha , Sesshoumaru, Rin, dead toad, all of it.

Moaning she tried to push herself up, but was only pushed back by the small girl.

"Stay still Neechan"(an:Neechan means big sister)

"Of course Rin-chan" Amaya sat still, letting the girl clean a cut along the her hairline.A surprised look crossed her face.Neechan? she thought, watching the girl.

She noticed that the toad , Jaken Rin had called him, was sitting by the edge of the water. She sat up, watching the sleeping toad.

"Sesshoumaru-sama resurrected him," Rin said quietly, looking at the older girl with respect." Just as he did for you."

Amaya looked at the girl surprised," What?"

"Thats right," Jaken said, stumbling over," He resurrected you just after he did me."

Amaya looked back and forth from the girl to the toad, and then, slowly, towards the demon lord that lay sleeping by the cliff wall.

"I was dead?" Amaya looked at Rin, shaking slightly.

"Yes," Rin said. looking her in the eye. "The demon killed you with a blow to your head." Rin motioned to a dead demon, which Amaya hadn't noticed before.

It was a great oni, blue in color. It had a foul stench, kind of reminding Amaya of Sota, when he came back from the park where he played with his friends.

Amaya wimpered.

Rin stood up, walking over to a stream that ran through the clearing. She dipped the cloth she had been using to fix up Amaya into the water.She rang it out and put it back in her pocket. She returned to Amaya's side. Sitting down, she started humming to herself.

"I don't mean to be rude," Jaken said, looking at Amaya,"Well, i couldn't care less if you thought me rude or not."

He grew silent. Amaya watched him, wondering what the hell a talking toad would want to know from her.

"Well," Jaken continued," What are you, i mean, you can't be demon, you're to chicken. And you can't be human because of your markings," He motioned to her forehead where her silver half moon glowed in the setting sun.

"She's a demon, Jaken" Said a voice from the corner of the clearing, near the cliff walls.

"What? But shes to..."

"She is a demon," Sesshoumaru moved out of the shadows, watching Amaya with his golden eyes. " But not a demon of this era are you?"

His question was directed at Amaya.

"How did you know?" Amaya asked, glaring right back at him.

"I seen you exit the well with my half-breed brother," Sesshoumaru stood up, " And the fact that you seemed surprised by the demon that attacked you. Most demons of this era, most definitely demonesses, would be expecting those kinds of things. Especially when they are in heat." He finished, glancing over his shoulder at her. Her face was bright red in color." Oh, and your clothes."

"What about me clothes?" Amaya demanded, glaring up at him.

"They are revealing." Sesshoumaru turned away."Follow me."

Amaya stood and followed him."Jaken, You and Rin stay here. We will be back."Sesshoumaru said, walking off into the darkness.

They walked in silence for a few minutes. Then Sesshoumaru turned to her and said quietly, his voice barely above a whisper,"I have a favor to ask of you, and you shall do it because I saved your life when I didn't even have to. I must go to war, against the northern lands," He paused for a minute, and with obvious strain, continued," I may not return, and I must have you promise that if I do not return, you will take care of Rin.If you must, you will take her to your era, but i wish to inspect it first."

"Of course I will look after her, but must you go to my era?I mean, its full of humans... and everything..." Amaya looked fearful.

"Yes," Sesshoumaru turned away. " And we will leave now." He walked off.

The keys in Amaya's head were spining. She had to stop him! "But Sesshoumaru...you can't just leave Rin here."

"I have done it before."

"But with Jaken? Maybe you should stay here and i will inspect it for you?" She looked up at him hopefully.

Sesshoumaru just kept walking.

"Sesshoumaru..." Amaya stopped. They were in the clearing with the well. " What if you can't get through?"

"I will." Sesshoumaru pulled out a jewel shard and held it in his hands. "I belive you have one of these. It is what permits you to use the well."

Amaya pulled out the 2 jewel shard Kagome had given her before they had left. She stared at them. Sighing, she walked forward. She stood at the edge of the well, ready to jump. Sesshoumaru appeared beside her. She reached up and gripped the sleeve of his Shirt.

They jumped together, Sesshoumaru preparing himself for what might lie on the other end, and Amaya praying to Kami that Inuyasha and Kagome weren't there.
