Kuri woke to find the smoke alarms going off in the house.
Inuyasha ran into her room and picked her up out of bed. "What's going on? Why do I smell smoke? And what's with all the sirens?"
"There's a fire nearby!" Kuri said, jerking into his arms. "Inuyasha! Take me into the forest!"
"What?! But that's where the smoke is coming from!" he yelled.
"Dylan and Rebecca, two little orphans," Kuri said. "They were playing with fireworks and now they're being burned alive! I'm their only hope! Please, Inuyasha!"
He looked at her face and sighed. "I'm going so I can protect you."
They took off into the forest at a fast pace. It was just as Kuri's dream, filled with flames. And the children were buried under a trunk.
Together, Inuyasha and Kuri lifted it.
"So what am I supposed to be looking at?" Inuyasha asked. "All I see is some skeletons and a bunch of charred trees. There's no fire here, and there hasn't been for some time."
"Are you joking?" Kuri grabbed his arm. "Look!"
He jerked slightly. "How did you…do that? Everything looks different!"
Kuri let go of him. "You mean…they are dead? But then…why send me that dream?"
Just then two ghostly forms of the children appeared.
"Thank you, big sister," Dylan said.
"Yes," Rebecca said. "Now that our bodies have been found, our souls are finally free."
The spirits rose into the air and flew away.
Inuyasha glared at Kuri. "What have I told you about getting in over your head?!"
"What the heck do you mean?" Kuri asked.
"I mean, why didn't you tell me anything about this?" he demanded. "If something's bothering you, I should know!"
"You mean…I should trust you and not do everything on my own?" Kuri said, looking off like she was in a daydream.
"Well I don't mean it like that!" he yelled.
"Oh! Well, in that case…" Kuri gave him an evil smirk. "SIT!"
