Chapter 3 - Good Morning -

Sesshoumaru walked at a steady pace, with Ami, following close behind him. They walked until the sun was almost set behind the western mountains.

He stopped suddenly and she almost ran into him. She'd been jogging since they left the spot where Sesshoumaru had found her.

"Wha'd we stop for?" she panted out.

He turned slowly to look at her. She stood up straighter and asked again.

"What?"

"We'll stop her for the night."

"Why? We could keep going!"

He looked at her as if saying 'Is that a fact?'. Obviously he didn't believe her.

"Fine." She crossed her arms and sat down on a log behind her.

He leaned against a tree, just opposite her, and closed her eyes.

Ami sat on the log looking across at Sesshoumaru. She wasn't hungry, She was to surprised and nervousness to have much of an appetite. Her mind wandered through the events of the day.

Fist she had suddenly appeared in these woods. She'd panicked, which was, as she knew, was the one thing you should never do when you're lost. She'd watched to many wilderness survival videos not to know what to do in situations like that.

She had run blindly calling for her mother, her sisters, her brother, her boyfriend, and any other names she could think of at the time.

Finally when she got winded she sat down in that rocky clearing and caught her breath. She couldn't help starting to sing. She did that, just breaking into song, when ever she got nervous.

Then when Sesshoumaru had interrupted her, when she saw he's face and realized that she was somehow in the feudal era. She lost it again at least for a short time.

She looked up out of her thoughts at the sleeping figure, leaning against the tree opposite her.

'Sesshoumaru. I always wanted to meet you.'

She started to fantasize, going off into her own world and didn't realize that she had fallen asleep. She rolled off the log as she hit the ground. The soft thud from her landing awoke Sesshoumaru. He immediately stood up strait, claws ready and looked for what had made the sound.

His eyes settled on her sleeping form across from him, next to the log. She lay on her side, breathing softly as she slumbered. She kicked out with her leg suddenly and hit the log with such force that it moved a few inches back. She turned over so that she faced him and went on sleeping.

The cold nip in the air didn't seem to bother her so he let her sleep and cocked back against the tree and fell asleep again.

NEXT MORNING -

Sesshoumaru awoke just a the sun reared its head above the eastern hills. He stretched his legs and arm then walked forward to awake Ami. He kneeled down beside her and suddenly she sat bolt upright and screamed a high- pitched wail.

He was thoroughly startled and raised his hand to cover his ears. He fell back on his ass. As she settled down, panting, staring as the ground. She raised here head and looked around and then when she spotted Sesshoumaru sitting startled with his hand over his left ear.

"Sesshoumaru?" She looked at him a little puzzled. "What are you doing?"

He got up without answering, turned and started to walk away at his fast, demon pace. Ami stared at his back for a moment, smiled, and jumped up to her feet and jogged on after him.

"Sesshoumaru?"

He turned to face her,

"Good morning!" she said cheerfully.

He turned again then, after a minute, he slowed his pace down to a point where she didn't have to jog to keep up. She came up beside him and looked at him, then turned to look at the path ahead.

She closed her eyes for a moment, her head began to bob from side to side, then she broke into song.

"Lord I hope this day is good,"

"I'm feelin' empty and misunderstood."

"I should be thankful Lord I know I should,"

"But Lord I hope this day is good.."
