Thanks again to ShadeSpirit for reviewing!

The warm sun woke me from my reasonably peaceful slumber. Slowly, I sat up and yawned. Then I realized I wasn't alone in the room. Turning around, I saw Kurama standing in the corner and I jumped a little.

"What are you doing here?" I demanded.

"I'm not going to cover up for you again Kyoko." He said in cold tone.

"What are you talking about? And you didn't answer my question."

"My mother will send more like the Kitsune to find you. Next time, I'm not going to stop them."

"And you came in here to tell me that?"

"No." He leaned in closer and gently pulled down the shoulder of my nightgown. "I came to see if what Genkai said was true."

With that, he dug his fingernail into the mark on my skin. I let out a yelp of pain and tried to move away from him. Suddenly, Kurama was pinned against the wall by the man from my dreams. My jaw dropped when I saw him.

"Stay away from my mate." He growled, digging his claws into Kurama's neck.

"Make me." Kurama spat.

"Give me a reason, and will not hesitate to kill you." The man's voice was dripping with rage.

He let go of Kurama and there was a lot of commotion outside of the room. Yusuke pushed open the door, but the man didn't seem to see him and strode over to me. He bent down to pick me up but I scurried behind Yusuke.

"She doesn't remember you Sesshomaru." Genkai appeared out of no where. "That is why she fears you."

"You know this guy!" Yusuke seemed outraged.

"He is Kyoko's mate." Genkai replied, nonchalantly.

"Who the hell is Kyoko!"

"She is the Princess of Demons." Hiei said from behind Yusuke.

"And what does this have to do with my sister?"

"She is her incarnation." Kurama growled. "My mother really should have killed her and put her bloody corpse on the front steps of the Palace of the Western Lands."

"Insult my mate again and I will kill you." Sesshomaru growled possessively, moving toward Kurama.

"Stop." Genkai moved in front of Sesshomaru. "This is no time to fight. You must leave here immediately. You'd only show her where Kyoko is."

"I'm not Kyoko!" I yelled, fed up with all I had witnessed. "As soon as you get that out of your heads we'll be able to put you all in a mental hospital. Demons don't exist, they're myths. There isn't a King of Demons; all of you have gone crazy."

With that I strode out of the house and went out the backdoor. I sat down next to a tree at the far side of the yard. It was then that I realized that I was shaking. Slowly, I took deep breaths, trying to calm myself. After a little while, I managed to relax and slowly, my breathing returned to normal.

Sighing, I leaned my head against the tree and closed my eyes. I heard someone come up and sit next to me but I didn't open my eyes, thinking it was just Yusuke. After a few minutes, he didn't leave and I was starting to get annoyed.

"What do you want Yusuke?" I asked angrily.

There was no answer. I opened my eyes and looked over. My jaw dropped when I saw who it was. Sesshomaru sat next to me. He was looking up at the sky, paying no attention to me.

"What are you doing here?" My voice shook with fear as I tried to scoot away from him.

"I will never hurt you Kyoko." He whispered, turning to look at me.

"Look buddy, I-"

"Shh." He put his finger to my lips before pulling me into an embrace. "You need to relax. Your heart is racing, I feel it."

As if to emphasize what he said, he ran his nails along my arm in rhythm with my heart. I tried to get away, but he didn't let me move.

"Let go of me." I growled.

"That is a mistake I'm not going to make again." He began kissing my neck.

It sent chills down my spine. Slowly, he moved toward my shoulder and pulled the loose fabric away from my skin. The tips of his fingers gently caressed the sensitive skin and I couldn't help but shudder. I could feel him smirk against my neck.

"Please." My voice was almost non existent.

"No." He stopped his ministrations on my neck and smirked as I groaned. "Kyoko, the day that you remember who I am, I will continue. Until then, let us wait."

"What if that day never comes?"

He didn't respond. Instead, he looked up at the sky. Then, he sighed and looked back at me. There was a look in his eyes, as if he wanted to tell me something, as if… As if he wanted to tell me everything about Kyoko, whoever she was. Slowly, he lifted his hand and brushed a strand of hair behind my ear.

"Please." I whispered, turning away from him.

I heard him get up. He seemed to stand there a second before heading toward the house. Slowly, I looked up at the sky. A light breeze blew my hair in my face and I hastily pushed it back behind my ears.

"Having fun Princess?" A voice, dripping with hate, asked.

"What the?" I whirled around.

"Surprised to see me Kyoko?" A woman with long silver hair and fox ears smirked.

"Who are you?" I stood up.

"You don't recognize me?" Her eyes seemed to stare into my soul. "Well then, I suppose you wouldn't. After all, you aren't really Kyoko, are you?"

"Look lady," I started to edge away from her. "I don't know who you are or what you're talking about."

"How rude of me, I am Inari. I heard rumors that you were alive, but I had to see it with my own two eyes."

"What do you want?"

"You dead."

With that, she lunged at me. I turned and ran, but caught my foot on a stone and tripped. As I fell, I heard Inari scream and I tried to turn to see why. She was covered in what looked like blood and a young man was pinning her against a tree. The man was baring his teeth and seemed to be growling.

"Stay away from my mother." He said.

"Silly puppy." Inari smiled before scratching the young man.

He let out a yelp and she managed to free herself. Grinning, she turned to me.

"We will meet again Kyoko. Next time your pup won't be there to save you." She said before throwing some sort of dust at me.

Suddenly, I felt a wave of nausea wash over me. Everything around me started to spin, and I really couldn't keep myself upright. My legs gave out and I felt someone catch me. Before I passed out, I saw that it was the young man.

"Hold on Mom." He said as I fell into a world of darkness.

A/N: The next chapter will be posted around Memorial Day weekend. (Most likely the Monday because I'm going to Anime Boston that Friday-Sunday)
