The trees were blurs as she sped through the Western Lands. Squeals and giggles of joy were herd until their destination came into view. The hanyou child sighed as she was set down in the front of the busy village. A young woman turned to look at the new comers, she smiled and motioned them to follow her.
The child looked up at the emotionless facade and asked lightly, " Why'd we have to get here so fast? I like hanging out with you, Lady Aiko..." The woman made no notion that she had herd the child but kept on walking, following the young woman into a hut.
" Lady Tigriss! You have brought my child home safe and sound once again, I thank you for your kindness. Will you stay for dinner? Or maybe on your way back to the Southern Lands you can come back so that I may give you my gift for your effort." A woman of 29 stepped out of the hut smiling brightly at Aiko.
" I believe I have business to attend to, but I will return within 14 days to see what it is you wish to give me, Miyo. Good day Saya." With that Aiko turned and walked to the front of the village, she disappered in the crowd.
" Goodbye Lady Aiko..." the young child whispered with her head down, she didn't get the chance to tell Aiko about her bad feeling, something bad was going to happen but Saya couldn't put her finger on it. Her mother, Miyo, watched as her child walked into their hut sadly, but sighing and going in as well.

Only the lightest wind was blowing as a woman dressed in black continued to walk toward the Northern Lands, he would most likely know she was coming before she even got to the border. Light colors of pink, yellow, blue, and orange colored the sky as the sun began its journey to sleep. Aiko closed her eyes and inhaled deeply, loving the smell of this forest.
She sighed, thinking about her past. ' I know I'm going to have to back sometime, but... but I don't think I can handle it. I cant face them, him... but if Lord Tameyoshi wants a heir I'm gonna have to! Arrrgh! I hate this! I feel helpless and I cant do anything, but half of me wants to go back and show that bastard how I've evolved! Damn, Damn... DAMN!'
Aiko sighed once again before rushing off faster than before, ' If I don't want to run into Sesshomaru I'm gonna have to hurry.'

' It is impossible to follow her! I don't have the time, I need to get back with that damn hanyou to find the coward Naraku!' He let out a low growl as he rubbed his temples. He had found her, in a village, but when she came out of the village she disaapered! The damn woman was fustrating!
' I'll come look for her again, but first I must get back to my damn idiot of a half-brother.' The demon lord thought before he became a blur again heading toward the Central Lands.

' Finally! He lives to damn far! The stupid fox!' thought Aiko as she walked past the dead guards... She smiled evilly, she ALWAYS killed them... well, most of the time really. It was completely hilarious! They never knew about her, Tameyoshi never tells them,therefore, she always kills the cute looking ones.
Walking with feline grace, Aiko fell into her emotionless facade, and jumped up to the fourth floor, out of the bedroom and into the hall, making no noise. Stopping at the large oak doors, designed with dogs, cats, and dragons.
She smirked, then after a moment or two, she pushed the doors and stepped inside. The conversation Aiko herd from down the hall, suddenly became an argument with yelling and shouting that hurt her sensitive ears.
" Don't you see Taiga? We have to work together to defeat this enemy!"
" NO! WE must lure him into one of our territories, then strike!"
" You have no idea what we're up against, you fool! Stay out of this!"
" Would you all just-"
" NO! You listen! Because we've let this continue we've lost most of our territories! WE need them back!"
" We must kill off the jewel hunters Tameyoshi, you know this! They are the ones causing this damn half breed to go on a killing spree looking for the jewel!"
With all the yelling this one caught Aiko's interest, she continued to listen carefully, until...
" We cannot kill them off! I know of someone who can help us!" one said,standing above the others. Aiko decided it was time to end this nonsense, seeing as Tameyoshi couldn't.
" Someone could easily kill you all of before you could blink. It is saddening, aren't you grown?" came her smooth voice, her icy amber and silver eyes staring intently at the one man who had said that the jewel hunters should be dead.
She stepped slowly out of the dark shadows, narrowing her eyes at the man. All was silent, as she said, " All your efforts are in vain.Lord Sesshomaru travels with the group of shard hunters, has been for the last 2 moon cycles. Even if he does,they would kill you without having to stand."
She spoke to the man, never once taking her eyes off him, as the others stood gaping at her beauty, but she could care less. They were all ignorant and needed to get their facts straight, or she would kill them.
Tameyoshi's head snapped over to her the minute he herd Sesshomaru. He and the boy were close, almost like father and son, since Sesshomaru never had a good one. " So thats why hes been gone so much." he mumbled, one of the men lookec at Tameyoshi before demanding," You know this woman!"
Instead of Tameyoshi answering Aiko did it for him, " Indeed he does. Do not disrespect me, or I will kill you without hesitation. Now stay silent unless you know who you speak to."
The man stood up, angry, before saying, " Who the hell do you think your speaking to bitch! You need to silence your mouth, your place is below mine now get the hell out before I have your head rolling."
Aiko's jaw clenched, her right hand twiched, and her eyes narrowed, " I am the Blue Mooned Tigriss, you hold no position to speak to me in such a manner." Everyone was in shock, except Tameyoshi, who at the moment, was smirking.
A chuckle was heard,then a smooth baritone was herd, " It is a pleasure to finally meet you, Lady Tigriss. And it seems death is at your door, Taiga." Tameyoshi smirked at the hansom man how had spoke, he looked to be a tiger demon, dressed in dark blue hamakas ( they're pants right?) with inchanted nimphs and signs of the ancient cats, along with a light gray top ( whats the japanese word for shirt?).
He bore the markings of the ancient black tiger, a silver diamond inflamed in a mystic blue. All in all he was gorgeous. But Aiko did not gawk she simply raised an eyebrow as he continued to smirk. Tameyoshi then stood and stated, " We will continue this another time, seeing as I have company. Now leave, I shall inform you all of our next meeting."
They all stared for a minute before the shuffling of clothes were herd and the oak doors shut once again. Aiko had expected the man to leave yet he stayed and Tameyoshi let him! Who was this guy anyway?
" Now, Aiko, I know we were suppose to meet, but it -"
" Who is he and why is he still here, Tameyoshi?" Aiko interrupted coldly, " Still straight forward aren't we Aiko?" Tameyoshi chuckled as she glared at him, " Well?" He sighed and leaned back in his chair before saying, " Yuko, this is my daughter, Aiko, this is Yuko, a friend you could say."
" You have a new daughter!" He said awed, " No not literally, but somthing of the like."
" Hmmm." Aiko said as she stared cooly at Tameyoshi then stated, " Now, I have come to ask you if are in need of a kitsune heir."
Tameyoshi looked at her his eyes wide, then he blinked a few times, " Why is it you ask?" Aiko glared, " Ok, Ok. No need to be harsh Aiko. I believe it would be nice, but can you do such a thing?" Tameyoshi asked, they both forgot about Yuko at this point.
" Of course, do you not think so, Father?" Aiko's brow rose at the questionand her lips twiched upward in the lightest of movement, but Tameyoshi caught it. " Why of course not," he replied, his smirk growing. Aiko just rolled her eyes. Yuko stood about to say something but Aiko cut him off, " Well good. I'll be back before you know it."
Only the rushing of wind and a cool breeze brushing up against their skin was felt and herd... Aiko was gone, not even her scent was left. ' Shes getting very good at that.' Tameyoshi thought as he mostioned Yuko to follow him.

2 Days Later, Border of the Central Lands
There's too many Miroku! I don't even know where the leader with the jewel went!" shouted the huntress of her demon neko, letting lose her deadly weapon. They all were fighting at this point, even Sesshomaru. Inuyasha and Seshomaru sensed demonic auras to late before they started fighting against some type of bears and wolf demons. A few of these demons carried jewel shards but Kikyo was to busy trying to stay alive to tell them where they were. Shippo and the young human girl-Rin- were hiding from danger.
" Inuyasha! Watch out!" a monk in purple robes yelled toward the half demon. " I got it monk! You pay attention!" came the responce as blood was splattered across the monk's robes. " Damnit! Move Sesshomaru, your in my way! WINDSCAR!"
" Gee Inuyasha really cares about his brother, when we need him!" Sango mumbled as Miroku and her stood back-to-back. " There is no way in hell we can beat them! They just keep coming!" Sango yelled to Inuyasha, who was back-to-back with Sesshomaru, both covered in drying blood.
" KIKYO!" Inuyasha shouted in worry as he rushed to save her from a demon behind her, leaving Sesshomaru to fend for him self, though he could do it, he was slower than usual because he was wounded badly from a face off with a demon with about 5 jewel shards.

' I smell blood, I smell Inuyasha and Shippo! Damn they must be fighting! Shit,' thought Aiko as she ran faster, hoping to get there before anyone died or anything. She changed so she was in her cat form as she jumped into the sky coming down in the center of the battle, ' I see jewel shards! And I see Shippo good he's safe, along with Rin.' Landing softly she looked around before making her right hand glow a firery, blood red, that then took shape of a whip ( like sesshy's but WAY better!).
2 moment later half the group of demons were gone, ' SHIT! Sesshomaru!' thought Aiko as she rushed forward to take a blow for Sesshomaru, every demon and group companion stopped to watch. Blood splattered across Sesshomaru as his eyes got wide, everyone's mouth dropped, but the demon with its plant- like whip through Aiko smiled. " So we meet again. And now your saving dogs? How saddening, Tigriss." The demon laughed as it injected poison into her body. The tenticle periced her abdomen but she gave no sign that it hurt, because it did not.
" Have you forgotten? Your poison does not affect this one, jiro." came the Tigriss's icy voice. Jiro frowned, " You always killed my fun. Now it is time to make you pay. Prepare to die slowly, Tigriss." He said as he rushed at her, Her eyes narrowed as she graped Sesshomaru's right wrist and moved faster than anything. " Wow." mumbled Sango as she stared in awe at the demoness.
Aiko smiled and said, " Die." She rushed forward with Sesshomaru and came up behind Jiro before snapping his neck with 3 fingers. She let go of Sesshoamru's wrist, not paying attention to him or any of the rest of the shard group as she said with an emotionless facade, " Leave all of you. If I see any of you again I will kill you. Tell all other demons that this group is to be left alone while in the Southern Lands."
All the demons stared then bowed, one saying, " Forgive us My lady we did not know you knew of these ones. Please forgive our insolence." Aiko's eyes flashed before she let her right hand twich again, they all turned and disappered. Sango's eyes were wide and her mouth was open as she tried to speak but Inuyasha beat her to it, " And who the hell are you! We didn't need your damn help wench!" Aiko ignored him until he moved toward her, her eyes flashed and he was sent into a tree by Kikyo, who had her bow ready to fire at her.
" Silence. You know me not, and you should be grateful I saved your lives. And Kikyo but your useless wepon down." Kikyo and Aiko were in a glaring contest until Kikyo bowed her head with her eyes closed once, Aiko did the same. " What is it you need?" Kikyo asked, everyone stared at her like she was crazy before she said, " She means us no harm, we may relax in her presence."
Kirara walked up to the tigriss, staring intently at her before she rubbed up against her. " What the hell!" Inuyasha screeched as he grabbed Tetsaiga (?) " Who the hell are you! What the hell you want!"
" Inuyasha, I believe Kikyo. She may be right, and it would be best to show her respect! She saved our lives!" Miroku yelled at Inuyasha who said, " Whatever." Aiko and Sango satred at eachother for a while before Aiko smirked and said, " Don't trust me now do you Sango?"
Miroku's brows drew together at this, how did she know her name? Just as Inuyasha took one step toward the Tigriss, she said, " I am Aiko, the Blue Mooned Tigriss. I am also the heir to the Southern Lands, former heir to the Northern Lands, Inuyasha, Second son to the great dog demon Inutashio."
Sango blinked twice before she readied her boomerang to attack, but Miroku stopped her." Don't Sango, we don't even know if she is our ally or enemy." he whispered in her ear, she only nodded stiffly but watched Aiko's every move. Seshomaru stepped beside her asking, " Are you a creation from Naraku? Do you involve yourself with him?" Aiko looked at him then looked over to where the kids were before saying, " I do not."
" Why did you take that hit for Sesshomaru, Lady Tigriss?" Miroku asked politely Aiko looked at him then said, " It was a reaction, to say truth. Shippo... Rin, you may come." Rin poked her head out from the bush,then smiled and ran toward the Tigriss. " Lady Tigriss! I can do it now! I've practiced!"
Everyone was thinking the same thing, or along the lines of it anyway, 'Practice what? And since when do they know eachother? How?' Miroku, being the quick one, voiced his thoughts before the others...
" Lady Tigriss, how is it you know this young child, Rin?" The Tigriss looked him over, staring intently before answering, " She has miko powers." Miroku's brows drew together, then he turned his questioning gaze to Sesshomaru who was looking waringly-glaring- at Aiko.
Sesshomaru seemed to sense his question, " How is it she does? This Sesshomaru has never felt nor seen such power from her." Aiko's gaze now turned to Sesshomaru while everyone else's were on her, then she smirked lightly, " I gave some of mine to her. If I were to die unexpectedly, she would grow to the age of 16, as would Shippo. Therefore, both inheirting my powers."
Everyone was in shock while Sesshomaru's gaze turned icy. Inuyasha, deciding he had, had enough, charged at Aiko. Who moved to the right, still smirking. ' Damn her!' Inuyasha thought, charging again. Aiko stood her ground, waiting for the right moment. As soon as Inuyasha was arms length from her she moved forward and punched him in the gut then face... hard. Inuyasha flew back and broke 2 trees before he landed.
Aiko's smirk had faded, it was completely silence, even the forest. Then Aiko's cold voice broke through, " Get up Inuyasha and fight. Do not use anger to fuel you or I will kill you then bring you back to life. I assure you, it is not peaceful." Inuyasha glared before he got up and listened to exactly what she said, why? He had no idea but he felt like he could trust her.
Sesshomaru's eyes were wide as he realised what she was doing. ' Shes teaching him to fight.' But before Sesshomaru could continue his thoughts Aiko's voice once again broke through. " You will all go through this. I am now going to be travling with you, the battle draws near and I WILL be there. This includes you Sesshomaru."
Sango glared at her but slowly put her weapon down before sitting down herself to watch, Miroku did the same. The 5 of them watched as Aiko and Inuyasha went back and forth. Inuyasha was as fast as his brother! He concetrated and took in everything Aiko said, doing exactly that. Soon enough it was sunset and Inuyasha was to the level that Aiko thought he should be at.
" Sesshomaru, we can either do yours at night, like now, I will train Miroku tomorrow. Your choice, but if you choose the later Sesshomaru, you will be last." Aiko said looking to the crescent moon.
Sesshomaru looked over to her and glared before stating, " I do not need training woman, do not bother." Now it was Aiko's turn to glare but before she could retort a male voice cut in, " I believe you should take up that offer Sesshomaru. She knows more than you do in the Dog Demon fighting techniques, ones you've never sen nor herd of. Most likely never will."
The figure stepped out of the shadows smiling lightly at Aiko, " Hello my daughter. I came to know my heir." His smile grew, while Sesshomaru was in shock before whispering...
" Tameyoshi..."
