Okay.. I know some of you asked for me to post the next chapter so.. Um.. Here it is! Hope you enjoy!

Last time on Ai Youkai

'This smell.. It's definitely belongs to her. We must hurry!' Why should I care what happens to a human? 'Don't question me! Just hurry or we'll be too late!' Fine..

XXXXX

Sesshomaru ran hurriedly through the woods. The scent of blood was becoming more powerful as he neared his destination. He came to a clearing and stopped.

'The smell of her blood is everywhere..' As well as my stupid brother.. 'How dare he hurt my woman!?' Who's woman? I don't remember claiming her as our own. 'Shut up and look for her! We might be too late!' As you wish.

He followed the scent of her blood and found himself at a stream. Blood ran together with the water down stream. He headed upstream in the direction where the blood was coming from. He soon much to his enragement arrived.

Her body was sprawled on the floor backside up. Her eyes were shut but her face still seemed to hold a look of great sadness and betrayal. She smelled of tears, blood, and.. his brother.

'No! We're too late..' Why do you even care? 'Surely you must have realized the way you look at her and watch her when you were battling your half bastard brother..' That was because she interested me, nothing more. 'Why?' I don't know. Well.. Maybe because she helped save Rin when she was sick and she was different than other humans.. 'Does what you see anger you at all?' Not really.. 'You lie! Look at your reflection in the stream and tell me that this does not anger you!'

He nodded slightly and walked to the edge of the river. His eyes were ruby-red and his markings were growing darker. His mouth and nose forming into a dog snout and a his fangs growing in size. 'Now tell me, all mighty Lord Sesshomaru, do you see how angry you are? Or are still blind as to why you are on the brink of a transformation' I get your point. I will help her.

He calmed himself and reverted back to his humanoid form. He walked to the woman slowly and sighed. He knelt down beside her and flipped her over so that she was face up. He heard her make a almost silent groan. His eyes widened with amazement. 'So she's still alive!? How!' I'm in the same position as you, don't bother asking me. 'Whatever. Just help her already!' Fine…

He brushed the hairs away from her face and picked her up gently. One arm gently held up her head the other wrapped around her waist pulling her closer into him. She moaned again and leaned closer into his chest. Her aura becoming flared with the intense pain she felt.

He let out a soothing growl. Vibrations went down his chest and calmed her aura as much as he could and wrapped his tail around her to keep her warm.

-Kagome's POV.-

My body ached all over. I tried to open my eyes but it was futile. I was paralyzed not able to move my body willingly. I felt a familiar aura approach me. It was a great and powerful one but I couldn't quite remember who's it was. I heard a sigh as it knelt down beside me and flipped my body over. I felt a cold tingly sensation as it wiped the hair from off my face. He growled as he traced his claws down my side and around the whole in my shoulder.

The feeling of his hand gently caressing my neck and cheek made me moan. It was not from pain but.. Well I don't really know. It felt good and at the same time it hurt.

You know, I really would like to know who is touching me!! 'Yeah right, you like this feeling and you know it.' Shut up conscience! I am a pure woman who has just had her heart broken yet again and almost killed. Now is not the time to be thinking that things feel good!!

'Whatever.. But just remember when we awaken and find out who saved us I will be the one to take lead..' Like hell you will!! 'Fine, but if I can't take the lead then you gotta let me have a little fun and do a little something for our savior. Heehee!' Heck no! Are you crazy! We don't even know who this person is and you are already thinking about 'that'!! Geez!

'I think its time you got a little "experience" don't you think?' Heck no! Leave me alone!! 'As you wish.. But remember I will not let us die a virgin.' Whatev- OUCH!!

'Ow.. What was that?' How the heck would I know I'm unconscious remember? 'OW!! Tell whoever the hell is moving us to STOP!' I can't idiot!! Geez! I swear who the heck gave me a stupid conscience? 'Well sorry ms. I'msoperfectsofuckoff…' Why you little bitch! Come 'ere so I can kill you! 'Hah- OW!!' Owwwww!! Please! Whoever you are put me down!! 'Pleaseeeee'

GRRR..

'Ooh That feels good' I think I'm suddenly tired now… 'Me too.. yawn.. Goodnight..' 'Nite…

-End Kagome's POV.-

The sun's warm rays shown upon the Demon Lord's face as he walked to his camp. His servant was leaning against a tree sleeping and his young ward was snuggled up with ah-un snoring lightly. He stood over Jaken and smirked.

"Lord Jaken, my savior.. Please wake up.. The children are awakening!" he said in a girly sounding voice.

Jaken leapt up and yelled at the top of his lungs, Nooooo!

Sesshomaru growled at the imp and kicked him into the air then checked to make sure he had not woken Rin.

He sighed and leaned his back against a tree and looked at the girl in his arms. She looked horrible. Her hair was matted and blood stained her clothes. He place laid her on the ground softly the unsheathed tenseiga.

It pulsed in his hands and glowed a soft blue color. He swung it across the girls body and watched as her wounds began heeling. Her skin slowly started to regenerate.

He let out a sigh of relief and sat against the tree. He looked into the horizon.. The sun was rising. It was a beautiful shade of pink. It reminded him of the day his mother had took him to the Moon-Sun Valley.

-Flash Back-

"We're here my son. The Moon-Sun Valley.. The land of my great grandfather, Yuri no Shikaku, the Lily Assassin. He was the lord of the Inudai clan, the most renowned clan of assassin's in all of Japan." the beautiful demoness said.

She was gorgeous. Her long, silky, silver, hair ran down to her feet. She wore a pale blue kimono with pink flowers embroidered along the arms and train, with a pink obi. She had pale skin with pink markings. Her crescent mark was blue with a pink lily resting upon its side.

"Sugoi Oka-sama, is this where you grew up!?" asked the eager inu-pup.

He ran up to the village. There were lots of pretty pink lights just floating around. Guards from the castle walked through the town drinking sake and acting like fools. Children ran around outside playing with firecrackers. The Inudai clan's castle stood tall and proud. Sakura's blossoms glowing in the moonlight.

The demoness walked over to her son and grabbed his hand.

"Yes, my son. But I did not bring you here to merely show you my home land, I came here to show you the Sunrise."

"Then why did you have to bring me here? I see it everyday!" mused the pup.

"This is not he same as the others. Come I will show you." she said then lead him up a mountain pass.

It was a long and exhausting journey.It took many hours. When they finally reached the mountain peek the sun was beginning to rise.

"Look towards the Western Lands. You see the lake surrounding that mountain? As the sunrises I want you to look into it." she instructed.

The sun began to rise and the pup looked into the lake eagerly waiting to find what he was to see.

The sun was a shade of pink. The mountain blocked some of its light but lit enough for it to light the lake. When the sun's rays reflected off the water you could see a path that lead to the island submerged in water.

"Oka-sama, I see it! I see it! It's a path right!?" he bounced up to his mom.

"Yes.. It's the secret path to the Kyuusho no Iwaya, Secret Cavern. In the Cavern is a scroll that was passed down in our family from generation to generation. It contains secrets that no one outside our family-line should know. Only a true Inudai is able to enter the cavern. I have protected it as my father has and now it is your turn. Will you?" she asked with a heavenly look on her face.

"Hai! I will, Oka-sama!" he shouted happily.

"Thank you, my son"

-End Flash Back-

"Hai. I will.. Oka-sama.." he muttered in his sleep.

Rin leapt into his lap holding a bunch of flowers in her hands.

He slightly jumped from the sudden wait on his body. He looked down at the girl and held in a growl that he so wanted to let out.

'How dare she interrupt our slumber!?' Silence.. You may not speak of her that way. 'No! Even if she is your daughter, you should at least scold her!' Fine..

"Sesshomaru-sama! I picked you flowers see!" she giggled as she put one behind his ear.

He let out a slight smile and patted her on the head as he got up.

"Rin, next time refrain from jumping on me while I'm asleep."

"Hai! I will, Sesshomaru-sama!" she said and then left to go find Jaken.

-Back In the Inu-tachi-

"Hey, Miroku. What do think is taking Kagome and Inuyasha to come back? The sun's already rising." Sango asked nervously. Her 'sister' had definitely been gone a long time. And she had a really bad feeling about it too. "Something's just not right."

"I agree.. There is something going on that we don't know about." he replied dully.

"I want my mommy! Oka-san!!" Shippo cried in Sango's arms.

"Don't worry Shippo, I'm sure she's just fine. Why don't you go outside and play? It will help take your mind off of things." she said sweetly while stoking his tail.

He nodded and left the hut hurriedly.

"Something's not right, Miroku. I think we should go and look for her."

He nodded his head in agreement and rose to his feet.

"Let's go, Kilala!" the fire neko jumped transformed and the three were on their way.
