I sighed again for about the thousandth time today. I never thought that I could be so bored on a trip before. When traveling with Sango, Miroku, Inuyasha, and Shippo I would always be talking with one of them.
But traveling with Izayoi, Inuyasha (the little one), and Sesshomaru was just plain out boring.
Izayoi had said that there was at least 2 more days of travel left before we would get to the wizard or whatever he is called who could help me. I don't know how im going to survive the boringness.

I sighed again and everyone looked back at me.

"Miko, will you please stop sighing. It's becoming annoying." Sesshomaru said.

I rolled my eyes and nodded.

I continued walking and got ahead of the rest of the group.
We walked for a while and then we heard a moan and then some growling.

We ran ahead and found a huge demon in front of a pregnant female half wolf demon who was hovering over a male half wolf demon who looked to be her mate. He was passed out behind her and she was trying to look confident but you could tell that she was scared.

Sesshomaru, Inuyasha, and I ran towards the demon. Sesshomaru attacked it with his poison claws, Inuyasha attacked it with his iron-reaver, soul-stealer, and I pulled out some bows and arrows that I had found in the forest. We attacked it and quickly killed it.

I walked over to the female half-demon where she was tending to the male. She was shaking him and silently weeping.
"Um, excuse me. But may I ask what happened here?" I asked.
She turned around and looked at me. I noticed that she had black and white streaked hair.
She gulped and sniffled.
"While I was off at the hot springs, my mate was here preparing camp. When I came back, I found him unconscious and the demon hovered over him, about to eat him. I quickly ran over to him and blocked the demon's way. I couldn't get to my sword and I was in a position to where I couldn't fight him off. Right about then you guys showed up. Thank you by the way." She said.
I smiled. "It's no problem. May I ask your names?"
"Mine is Yuki and my mate's is Kuro."

I smiled again. "Well, were about to make camp so if you want to stay with us for the night then that would be fine. By the way, where are you heading exactly?" I asked.

"Thank you. We would be grateful if you would let us stay. And we are heading for the East Lands. Our pack is there. We went on a journey but we need to return because of the little wolf cub that's on its way." She said as she looked down at her stomach.

I smiled. "Well, were heading that way. We have to find a wizard demon to help us so if you want, you can just travel with us till we come upon where you need to stop." I offered.

"That would be great. Once again thank you." She said.

Izayoi started a fire and Inuyasha went out to gather fire wood. Sesshomaru once again disappeared off into the forest and Yuki stayed right by her mate. When Inuyasha returned, her mate started to stir. Then his eyes popped open.
He jumped up and had his sword ready. He waited and then looked down to Yuki. She smiled and nodded her head down and he slowly put away his sword and sat down.

He narrowed his eyes.

"Who are you?" he asked.

"Im Kagome, this is Izayoi, this is Inuyasha, and Sesshomaru is off in the forest somewhere." I said, pointing each of them out.

He calmed down and looked at Yuki.

"Are you ok?" he asked.

She smiled. "Yes. Thankfully Kagome and the others got here just in time and saved us both. When I arrived you were already knocked out and the demon was about to eat you, so I had to get in its way and in the position I was in, I couldn't get to my sword and I couldn't kick him or anything." She said.
He gave her a solemn look and caressed her cheek.

"Im so sorry. The demon just appeared behind me and knocked me out before I could react."
She shook her head.

"No, it's not your fault. Don't blame yourself please." She said.
He nodded and smiled.

He then looked to us and smiled.
"Thank you for saving us. We owe you big time," he said.

"Its fine," Izayoi said.

They both nodded and laid down to get some rest. Inuyasha had gone over to a nearby tree and leaned against it and fell asleep. Izayoi and I had made some sort of mat out of straw and other things. It was actually quite comfortable.
We all quickly fell asleep, unaware of the coming day.

IPOV

To hopefully get my mind off of Kagome, I went out on a walk down a random path. Unfortunately though, I ran into a couple of demons that wasn't really helping with the worrying matter.

Although, after about the 4th demon in the past hour, I came across and half-demon couple with about an 8 year old half-demon child. I didn't know how that was possible but somehow it was.
They hadn't noticed me yet but little did they know, a huge snake demon was coming straight their way. I guess they were too preoccupied to sense the evil aura.

I ran up in front of them and cast Wind Scar. The demon quickly vanished and I turned around to face them.

They looked confused for a moment and then a look of relief came across their face.

"Thank you so much, Inuyasha. This is the second time you've saved our and our daughters life," the woman said.

I gave her a confused look.

"You don't remember? You saved us once before but you were with other people" she said.

All of a sudden, a memory changed of when I was traveling with Kagome, my mother, and Sesshomaru and we had came across a woman hovering over her mate while she was pregnant and a snake demon was attacking them. We had defeated it and then they traveled with us until the East Lands.

I looked to her and nodded.
"Now I remember. I was small at that age right? I was also with a teenage girl, my mother, and a white-suited demon, right?" I asked to confirm.

The woman nodded.

"Yes. Me and your mother became very good friends. I was very sad when I found out of her death. I also heard that her half-breed son still lived so I was hoping that you took good care of yourself. It looks like you did. So, where is this girl that was traveling with you back then?" she asked.

"See right now she sort of is living it. It's difficult to explain but that incident and everything that happened that you remember with her in it, wasn't supposed to happen. But it was caused by one of our enemies that wants our group to be split up."

She gave me a weird look and then shook her head.

"Well, I hope that you mate with her. You and her make a wonderful couple." She said as she winked.

I blushed slightly and turned away so that she didn't see it.

She laughed and then her, her mate, and their daughter walked away.

I sighed and started walking towards Kaede's village.

Kagome, come back!

AN: Bleh. Well at least Spring Break is finally here! But unfortunately, im going to be on a trip over the WHOLE break. So I will not have any time to update. But I promise that I haven't forgot about this story and I will not give up on it. Well…review please!
