& ( ) after the battle…in the Hospital 5 hours later

"That bitch!!!" Kagome seethed as she stormed into the Hospital her face red with anger completely oblivious as to why she was even there and who was currently occupying the room, "How dare she! Who does she honestly think she is?! The Princess or something?!" she glared death at Sango before she could make her comment known to everyone else, "Yes Sango I know she is the princess of this forsaken planet, BUT! That gives her no excuse to think herself higher than us! We are supposed to save the world and she can't even manage to respect us even the tiniest BIT!? I mean come on---"

As she continued to rant on and on about the supposed "Bitch" Sango and Ayame sighed and sat down next to an unconscious Rin. Her breathing was shallow but steady meaning she was doing well do to the wonderful medicine(hint, hint) /potion forced down her throat by own of the nurses. After about 30 minuets of listening to Kagome's ranting, Ayame grew frustrated and grabbed a random object, which just so happened to be her cell phone, and threw it at Kagome yelling, "SHUT UP, KAGOME!!!". Due to her amazing aiming skills it hit her square on her forehead before falling to the ground breaking.

Ayame was panting heavily, due to her frustration, when Kagome turned to her glaring once again at one of her friends. "WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT FOR, AYAME!!!" it was more of a statement than a question but nonetheless it got its point across.

Ayame shrugged innocently, "It got you to shut up didn't it? 'Sides you have been ranting for over 5 hours. Normal people are done after just one…what the hell did you eat, huh, Kags?"

Kagome simply glared as she sat down in a huff next to Sango, who had fallen asleep some time ago, pouting slightly.

A groan was heard emitting from their sleeping friend as Rin sat up rubbing her head and wincing slightly, " How the hell can anyone possibly get any sleep around here with all of that shouting, huh?" she smiled as she fell groggily onto the pillows that was her bed staring up at the ceiling. "What happened?"

"You don't remember?" Ayame sat by Rin taking her hand and rubbing it softly, "Sesshoumaru hit you with something…you've been out for a while now. How are you feeling?"

Rin thought for a while seemingly trying to remember and also checking her physical and mental stability all at once, "I'm doing fine actually. Only thing that hurts is my stomach, but it feels more like cramps than anything, if you know what I mean." A/N if you're a guy reading this then I'm sorry you had to read that. Most guys get grossed out when girls talk about that stuff. Anyway back to the fic!

At this everyone laughed out loud glad to hear that everyone was safe and happy. After about an hour or two the door opened to reveal Saracen herself. Looking quite embarrassed she stood there fidgeting with her dress, "I, uh, I am sorry for causing so much trouble. I had had a long day with Naraku causing so much havoc around my world that I took it out on you. And for that I am sorry. It was not my place to speak out on such harsh terms. I am usually good natured and always smile. Its just Adam was talking a lot about you all and it got me thinking. You've never been here before. I should have welcomed you properly. I am Saracen Kaydence A/N I did not think of this one I borrowed the name from some writer here. She wrote "I'm a Zabini" look it up its really good…on with the fic! Minomori, Princess of Meridian. It is my greatest pleasure to be working along side you and to welcome you to our humble world." At this she bowed and smiled hoping that all insults were to be forgotten.

After a while Rin was the one to speak up, "Naraku? . . . .I thought we were fighting Phobos…what exactly is going on?" she along with the others recall Hay-Lin saying something about Phobos. 'But now there is another threat? If we are to fight then it would be best if we knew who and/or what we are dealing with…'

At the mention of Naraku, Saracen's smile faded into a scowl, "Naraku. He and his 'wife', Narissa, are the ones causing me so many problems. A while ago we, meaning the Rebels and me, defeated Phobos. We were at a peace for 3 years. Everything changed when a new threat became known to us. Naraku has somehow managed to bring back Phobos from the Under-verse. On his journey back he recruited a few demons. They call themselves the Nights of Vengeance.They have been known to feed off of our negative emotions and have been growing stronger with each battle. I fear we are not strong enough to stop them. Inuyasha, and Koga are too emotional for the jobs and Sesshomaru could really care less. The only one that truly cares is Miroku. But he is only a human with no known spiritual abilities, he is an excellent fighter but relies on the others most of the time. This is probably why Sango beat him in that battle. Together the Rebels are in supreme synchronization. Ones attack is advantageous to another's'. They are perfect. But they need help. This is where you Guardians come in. From what the Elders have told me, your attacks are questionable. The Rebels have been charged with teaching you in the specific weapons area the have mastered."

"Honestly, Saracen…must you tell them everything?" the smooth, cool voice of Kikyo came floating from the door.

Looking behind herself, Saracen cringed before forcing a smile, "Lady Kikyo, such a surprise. You are here for Inuyasha, are you not? I believe he is in the back, training as always. If you like-"

She was cut off by a simple wave of Kikyo's well manicured hand, "I have no desire to bandy words with that cad. I heard the next generation of Guardians was here and I thought I'd give them a proper welcoming. No doubt you messed with their heads. What did you do this time? Prove how self-centered you really are? Or shame our family name. Again."

At this everyone currently in the room glared at this Kikyo person. Although Saracen's was less than convincing as it held more doubt than anything else. Without allowing anyone to comment Kikyo left. Her nose held high in a 'look at me I'm rich and powerful so worship the very ground I walk on' sort of way.

"Wow bitchy season must be in full bloom this year." At this everyone laughed. Glad that the tension in the room was gone. Looking at Saracen, Rin decided to ask the question what the others wanted to know as well, "Who was that girl anyway?"

Saracen, who had been hoping the girls, would let the topic slide, sighed as she pulled up a chair next to Kagome. "Kikyo Gato Minomori. Just so happens to be my eldest sister. Actually, much to my dismay, she is my twin. Every since childhood she was always a wet blanket. She always saw everything as 'childish and immature'. Frankly it was really annoying. Having to listen to her whine and complain about all of my faults and acting as if she was the perfect child around Elyon, our mother, making me seem like the evil twin who needed constant watching over. I have reason to believe she is in league with Naraku and is currently trying to get Inuyasha, her 'lover' although I don't see how he could possibly love that whore, to cross over. He may be a complete jerk, but he knows good from evil. And I have faith in him. I have faith in all of them. And you of course." She then looked at the clock hanging about the door. Gasping as she saw it was already midnight. "I would love to stay and 'chat', I think that's what you Earthlings call it, but it is midnight and I am sure young Rin needs her rest. As do you all. Your training will start tomorrow afternoon. You are all expected to be there and wearing the suitable garb." As she stood to leave she smiled at all of the girls before turning to leave. When she got to the door she stopped and looked over her shoulder smiling. "I am sorry for causing so much trouble, earlier, Kagome. I hope this does not hold you back when you are contemplating whether or not to trust me. I hope that you do. We really need you. Goodnight." And with that she left.

With a heavy sigh Kagome turned to the others, "Well, who wants to call it. Scale it from 1-5, 1 the highest, three numbers allowed for each vote. . ."

Sango, who had waken long ago, sighed, "2, 2, 3"

Rin smiled and looked at all of them, "1, 1, 2"

Ayame shrugged, "I call straight 2s. What about you, Kagome?"

Said girl smiled brightly, "I call straight 1s"

They all laughed at this knowing that Kagome only said this because she didn't have to apologize. And to her that was a major point booster. Ayame who had stopped early decided the real call, "Alright, lets add them, 6 2s. 5 1s, and 1 3. 2s win. We trust her for now, but tell her no key secrets, deal?"

The other three nodded their agreement stating; "Deal" at the same time.

Ayame smiled before standing up and stretching, yawning in the process. "Alright. Well I'm beat. I'm going to bed. See you all in the morning." The others nodded and followed her example, wishing Rin good dreams they all went to bed.
