------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Is something wrong, Sesshoumaru?" She stared into the bloody field and felt tears coming, but she wiped them away. She thought of every event that happened here, and the incident of his death. She couldn't let go, but she had no choice.

"This field… it is troubled."

"Huh?" She couldn't figure out how a field can be troubled by deaths. A field is a field! But a field can cause anything to happen… She began to cry again, but wiped her tears away before Sesshoumaru could see them.

"Just a passing thought." He began walking again, and Kagome just followed him without asking him. She wishes not to be here. Her wish can be fulfilled for once.

"Sesshoumaru?" He looked down at her, and she yawned. I don't think he'll let me, but he might. "Can we rest? I can't keep my eyes open…" She walked to the nearest tree and rested her back onto the trunk. She slid down and felt her bottom hit the ground. She looked up at the sky. It's a new moon… Kagome looked at the ground and was on the verge of crying.

"Good night, Sesshoumaru." He jumped into the tree and sat onto the branch. He thought it was the best way to protect a human. This Sesshoumaru will not tell her good night. She began to close her eyes, but shot open immediately once she heard a scream.

"Rin." Sesshoumaru jumped to the next tree, and Kagome stood up. Sesshoumaru stopped on the branch and looked back. "Stay here." Kagome nodded and sat back down under the tree.

I hope everything is okay. I don't think Sesshoumaru would like her to die. Kagome stayed awake and stared at the sky. Wherever you are, Inuyasha, I hope you can hear me say I love you. Are you watching over me? She began to cry again, and thought about the happy and sad memories of her and Inuyasha, including their first time they met, and their exchange of love before he died. She was still in awe, but began to fall asleep under the new moon.

Rin. What is troubling you? Sesshoumaru jumped through the trees, dashing towards the location of Jaken and Rin. He saw them in the distance, surrounded by demons.

"Give us the human, merciful toad." One of the demons said.

"All we want is her for food. Won't you help your brethren?" Another demon said while grabbing her arm.

"Let me go!" Rin tried to kick the demon, but she was too far away. The demons laughed and began to make a getaway until they were stopped.

"Put her down." Sesshoumaru replied.

"Who the hell are you?"

"Put her down," Sesshoumaru began to unsheathe the Tokijin. "Or else you will prepare your visit to the netherworld." He held the sword out and aimed it at them.

"You're going to pay for saying that to us!" A demon ran towards Sesshoumaru, but was easily killed in one strike. Sesshoumaru glanced at the other demons.

"To get this girl back, you're going to have to pry her from my dead hands!" The flock of demons ran towards Sesshoumaru and he stared.

"Your loss." He made one strike, and they were killed. The demon holding Rin was the only one who made it alive.

"You missed me, Inu-youkai!" The demon prepared his attack on him, but Sesshoumaru sliced through his body. He grabbed Rin and finished the demon off.

He placed Rin onto the ground and she ran back towards Ah-Un and Jaken.

"Excellent work, milord!" Jaken bowed to Sesshoumaru. He looked up and saw him walking away.

"Lord Sesshoumaru? Where are you heading?" Rin asked.

"Back where I came from." Sesshoumaru jumped into the trees and made his way back to Kagome. This Miko… she is making me worry about her… He dashed through the forest and kept running until he arrived at her spot.

"But milord!" Jaken yelled. He couldn't reach Sesshoumaru and looked back at Rin. "This is your fault, human." He noticed she was sleeping, and he sighed. "So much for that." Jaken laid down next to Ah-Un and fell asleep.

Sesshoumaru arrived at Kagome, and saw her sleeping under the tree. What if she was attacked during that time? He shook the thought off and jumped back up into the tree. He watched her sleep and watched the area for demons.

Why must this Miko care about Inuyasha? He is dead. He is at peace, but she cannot grasp that idea yet. He noticed her moving under the tree, and he jumped down.

"Inu…yasha… I'm sorry…" She was dreaming. He looked at her peaceful face and heard her cry for Inuyasha. Even in her dreams, he dies.

"Why must you feel sorry for his death?" He couldn't understand why she could be sad for his death, even when he was in pain. If one dies, that one is in peace. But the one left behind is now in pain. Is she experiencing his pain before he died? "Miko. Do not cry for him."

She began to open her eyes and jumped when she saw Sesshoumaru staring at her. Was it a dream that I heard that? She rubbed her eyes and saw it was night. She yawned and stretched.

"Miko." She looked at him and began to become angry at that name.

"My name is not Miko! It is Kagome!" She muttered. He heard, but didn't care.

"I will call you whatever suits you, Miko." She sighed and looked at him.

"What is it that you want?" She asked.

"Do you feel it?" She couldn't understand that question. Feel what? Is a demon approaching?

"Feel what?"

"His pain." She blinked and looked at the ground. She brought her knees to her face and buried her face into them. She knew he was talking about Inuyasha, but what pain?

"What pain?"

"Inuyasha's pain before he died." She flinched. She finally understood the question, and began to cry. She nodded. "Why is that?" She shrugged. She didn't even know it was his pain until now. She wanted this pain to subside, but her sadness consumed her. It only made the matter worse. "He is at peace though." She looked up and wiped away her eyes.

"But his pain remains…" She buried her face again and began to cry. He shook his head and sighed.

"That is because you want to remember his death. His death will only cause more pain for him. Let him go." She shook her head. Not yet… Not yet can I let him go!

"I can't." She kept crying and Sesshoumaru didn't know what to do at this point. The only way to heal is comfort. He embraced her and let her cry into his clothing again. She didn't realize it at first, but Sesshoumaru was hugging her again.

"Thank you." She whispered. He nodded, and didn't let go until the crying subsided.
