Chapter 2

InuYasha put Aki and Sesshoumaru down and looked at them. Aki was turned away from Sesshoumaru and Sesshoumaru's face was in a passive mask. Aki was scowling at something in the distance.

"Get inside and I'll answer your questions soon." InuYasha said. Aki and Sesshoumaru walked inside, Aki sat as far away from Sesshoumaru as she could get while Sesshoumaru was looking at InuYasha outside of the cave.

"Eh, is that you Sesshoumaru?" To To Sai asked, he poked Sesshoumaru in the head and Aki sat holding her hand over her mouth as she tried not to laugh.

"Stop." Sesshoumaru ordered as InuYasha walked into the cave with a woman holding something in her arms. Aki looked at her curiously. "Yes my name is Sesshoumaru but I'm not who you're thinking I am." Sesshoumaru added.

"Kagome, this is Sesshoumaru and Aki, they're the reincarnations of the ones we knew." InuYasha said. Kagome looked at both of them closely. Aki walked over and looked at her in the same manner as she was looking at them.

"Wait, if you're that Kagome from 100 years ago, why are you still living?" Aki asked. Kagome smiled.

"I'm mated to InuYasha so I'll live about as long as he will." Kagome explained. Aki nodded and then looked at the bundle she was holding, it was a baby. "This is Yoko." Kagome said. Sesshoumaru walked over and looked at the baby, it was a girl.

"Alright now it's time to answer questions." InuYasha said as she sat down and Kagome sat down in his lap.

"Ok, who wants to go first?" Aki asked, before she could say anything else Sesshoumaru opened his mouth and started firing out questions.

"How did we know you? Who are Sango and Miroku?" Sesshoumaru asked.

"Well I was your brother and Sango and Miroku were our friends but they died a long time ago." InuYasha answered.

"How do we know you?" Aki asked turning to To To Sai.

"I was the one who made Tetsusaiga, Tensaiga, and Sounga. Sesshoumaru used to weild Tensaiga, InuYasha weilds Tetsusaiga, and Sounga was lost in hell." To To Sai explained.

"No it wasn't. It's back some where in this world." Aki answered in a low tone, Sesshoumaru could tell from her eyes that she was afraid of the sword.

"How do you know?" Sesshoumaru asked, Aki looked up at him, her eyes were terrified. She was hesitant to answer his question.

"It calls to me, saying that I should come and get it, that I should use it. The feeling draws me to it but I don't like it. I don't know why it wants me but it does, I don't want to have anything to do with it, not at all." Aki answered, her eyes fell to the ground. InuYasha, Kagome, and To To Sai all looked at each other.

"It wants you because in your past life it was offered to you and it's drawn to your powers, you both have powers that you haven't awakened yet, you're going to need to awaken them and soon because if you don't, then Sounga will get control over one of you, or both of you." Kagome said in a grave tone, she remembered what happened last time they had faced the sword, and they were lucky to come out alive. "We tried to destory it but it came back, I'm assuming that you two are the ones destined to destroy it, but I could be wrong." Kagome added.

"I hope you're not. Sounga is probably more powerful now that it was in hell and brought back, since it's the sword of hell." To To Sai said as he pondered a loud. Aki was terrified to the bone, this sword scared her and she didn't want anything to do with it, though Sesshoumaru knew that they were going to be dragged into it, some way or another.

"You two are going to have to train then, we have to get your powers back and your memories of how to use them." InuYasha said. Aki looked at him and then stood.

"We have NO chance against the sword! Even if we had Sesshoumaru's other sword we wouldn't be able to defeat it! The power from it is sinister! The Dragon Twister is much more powerful than it was before and doubt that even your father could control it now!" Aki growled at him. "Sounga will have the world and there's naught we can do about it." InuYasha blinked and then turned to Sesshoumaru.

"You were once her mate! Talk some sence into her!" Sesshoumaru glared and ignored him.

"InuYasha, I think she's right." To To Sai said.

"There HAS to be a way to defeat it. There HAS to be." Kagome said.

"If there is I'm sure that they'd find it. Neither of them are being cooraperative though." InuYasha walked over to Aki and whacked her upside the head.

"HEY!" Aki growled and launched herself onto his head and bit his ear again, InuYasha's hands waved frantically around and Kagome laughed.

"LEGGO! MY EAR! MY EAR! MY POOR POOR EAR!" InuYasha yelled as he tried to get Aki off, which one resulted in making her bit down harder. InuYasha yelped and then Aki let go.

"Stupid." Aki muttered.

"Moron."

"SHUT UP HALF BREED!" Aki growled.

"WHO YA CALLING HALF BREED YA PYRO!" InuYasha growled back. Aki was about to pounce again when Sesshoumaru grabbed her hair and held her back.

"Ow! That's my hair!" Aki growled, InuYasha laughed and she kicked him in the shin.

"Ow! That's my shin!" InuYasha yelped. Aki smirked and then was smacked and so was InuYasha.

"That's enough, if we're going to end the threat of the sword then we better do it soon." To To Sai said as he sat back down. "Aki and Sesshoumaru will HAVE to learn to get along and then and only then will they be able to stop Sounga. While they're looking for it they will train with each other to cover the other's weaknesses." To To Sai added.

"Do I havfta?" Aki asked with a groan.

"Yes." Kagome, InuYasha, and To To Sai said together, Aki sighed.

"Fiine."

"I have one more question. Why does it have to be us?"

"Before you died before you two could do anything together, and you're both full demon which ups the chances of sucess. If you two can do this then the world will be safe for everyone." Kagome explained.

"Why him?" Aki asked pointing to Sesshoumaru. "Please, anyone BUT him!" she said as she made a dramtic scene. Everyone rolled their eyes.

"BECAUSE!" the three of them yelled. Sesshoumaru stood back and Aki nodded.

"Good answer." she mutterd.

"You will leave now." To To Sai said, he kicked them both out and they found themselves wandering through the woods once they were free of the sulfur fields.

"Stupid old people, making us do this..." Aki muttered to herself, Sesshoumaru was getting annoyed by her continuous muttering. She was walking behind him, he stopped and turned around, Aki hadn't noticed that he stoped and walked into him. "Whoa!" Aki said as she and Sesshoumaru fell to the ground, Aki landed on top of Sesshoumaru, their lips not even an inch a part.

"Get off!" Sesshoumaru growled, his lips lightly brushing hers. Aki jumped off as she blushed.

"Sorry! I didn't know that you stopped!" Aki growled at him, not donig a very good job of hiding her blush.

"Pay attention then! We'll stop here for tonight. You make the fire and I'll find food." Sesshoumaru said as he walked off into the woods to get food.

"Grrr! He thinks he can tell me what to do! Well I've got other plans than to listen to him!" Aki growled, she was throwing woods into a pile and then she put stones around the woods. She reached for another stick and then her hand was cut by a sharp stick. "OW!" Aki growled, there was a whoosh and Aki looked over to the pile of wood she had collected. It had caught fire. "What the hell?" Aki asked.

"Good you've got the fire going." Sesshoumaru said, he had a deer draped over his shoulder, it wasn't big, it looked like a yearling. Aki was looking at the fire in a confused manner. "What's the matter?"

"Huh? Oh...nothing." Aki muttered, then she looked at her hand as Sesshoumaru caught the scent of blood, other than the deers. He set the deer down and walked over to Aki, grabbed her hand, she flinched and Sesshoumaru looked at the cut, it was a bit deep but not too much.

"How'd you manage to cut yourself?" Sesshoumaru asked, he bent down and started licking the blood away, Aki felt her cheeks flush, Sesshoumaru had NO idea why he was doing this. Aki snatched her hand away.

"I cut it on a twig." Aki answered, she walked over to the other side of the fire and sat down, she cut a peice of her sleeve off and wrapped her hand with it. Sesshoumaru pushed the thoughts he was having from his mind. Her blood tasted good and familiar at the same time. Aki dozed off and Sesshoumaru walked over to her, she was cold so he sat down next to her to keep her warm, he didn't know why he cared but he did, he never cared for someone like this. When he was done eating he fell asleep. Aki opened her eyes and looked around, she was hungry since she fell asleep before the food was ready. She was about to get up when something around her waist tightened. AKi looked down and there was Sesshoumaru's arm, Aki blushed and then noticed her head was on Sesshoumaru chest and that she was actually warm and she liked being near him, but she wasn't going to let him know that. She removed his arm and walked away to the deer, there was a portion of it left out for her and she gladly ate it. "Wake up." Aki growled at Sesshoumaru as she pushed him with her foot. Sesshoumaru opened his eyes and looked at her.

"What?" he asked.

"I said wake up. If we're going to save the world we can't do it while we're sleeping can we?" she asked. "Besides we have to train." she added.

"True enough." Sesshoumaru muttered as he got up. Aki took a ready stance on the other side of the clearing.
