Sesshomaru couldn't help but to wonder if something went wrong with Inuyasha and Kikyo. He had lost his sent a few hours ago with still no sign of Naraku. He can take care of himself. He kept telling himself. He signed, knowing damn well what Naraku has in mind. He wants to separate the group just like all of the other times, knowing he cannot take them all on at once. Coward.

He decided to walk off the aggravation Inuyasha had caused. He wouldn't go far though just in case Kagome were to come back. He knew how stubborn she could get, even more than himself. It had only been a month trapped with that wretched human in her world, but it was enough to get attached to her awkward being.

He walked a few miles from the group, making sure it wasn't far enough to lose any of their scents. He stopped by a river bank, looking down at his reflection; he saw something that he had never seen in his own two eyes. "Looks like you two will need someone to help you in your love lives!" Sesshomaru remembered Rin's voice that day when Kagome had made him try the 'Love-Fortune-Telling Stone'. He looked away and made himself ignore it, knowing it would only cause pain that he will never be able to show.

Night had fallen and took over the blue open sky. It was cold outside, cold for a summer night, but he brushed it off his shoulders thinking nothing of it. He was still standing by the river bank when he smelt a very familiar scent that he will never be able to forget throughout his lifetime. He closed his eyes and let the scent flow into his highly sensitive nose and through his body, letting the ecstasy in his body to escape.

His mouth started to water remembering the kiss they had shared. Such a foolish thing. He couldn't help but to remember the joyness it brought when he felt his lips on hers, and how she'd kissed him back instead of pushing away. But.. She's a human. He slowly opened his eyes. How could a demon love a human? We out live them by hundreds of years. "Hn." He said before turning around to rejoin with the group.


Kagome was pacing back and forth when Sesshomaru casually walked out of the woods and into view.

"Where the hell did Inuyasha go?!" Kagome yelled once he got close enough to where she wouldn't have to yell too loudly.

"It's nice to see you too." He clouded his sorrow for her yells to his unfaithful brother with anger.

"What's with this tone? I'm the one who should be upset about being forced back home!" Her yell reached his ears painfully.

"No one forced you to. You were too worked up on your emotions, you decided to run away from it. I simply said what I thought was right for you." He could feel anger rise, but refused to show she had won this argument already. He didn't want to fight with her. In fact, her didn't know what he should do with her. Push her away or keep her close.

They stared at each other for a moment in anger. "Whatever. Look, something bad has happened."

He felt his own heart sink, something that rarely ever happens. "Is Rin alright?"

"She's fine. I hope. When I got back home from a date with Hojo," His eyes slightly squinted in anger and jealousy when she didn't try to hide she had went on a date. "There was something weird in my bedroom. Spiderwebs were everywhere. I think Naraku had somehow found a way to my world."

"What? Are you sure it was him?" Songo asked putting a hand on Kagome's shoulder.

"I'm not sure. I didn't sense him or the jewel shards. But I'm certain those were his spider webs."

Sesshomaru smelt something just then. It was Naraku, but where? And why hasn't Kagome sensed him yet? Before he could speak to warn them Naraku was near, he heard Kagome's scream as something he couldn't see lifted her through the air and towards the Well.

"SESSHOMARU!" She yelled but he was too late. She disappeared through the Well before he could catch up to her.

"Damn it!" He cursed reaching the Well.

Last time I went down there, I couldn't come back for a month. If I go after her this time, I may never be able to come back. He'd rather sacrifice his lands for her to be safe again. He jumped down the Well forgetting only Kagome and Inuyasha can pass through.

"Damn it!" He cursed again flying out of the Well in search of his brother.


He started in the direction Inuyasha had fled to see Kikyo. He will sure to remember to give his brother a good pounding when he has the chance. He flew a few miles before he had finally found his brothers scent. It was faint, but he will be able to find him with it.

He found his brother heavily making out with Kikyo. Clothes were flown off and tossed to the side, baring Inuyasha's and Kikyo's chest. Inuyasha quickly covered her up once he noticed someone else was there with them.

"What do you want, Sesshomaru?" He asked not turning around to look at him.

Sesshomaru ignored the scene in front of him, trying to keep his anger from rising. "Kagome's in danger. Naraku has taken her to the other side of the Well."

He turned around this time, eyes widen in shock. "How the hell did he get to her time?"

"It doesn't matter. What does matter is that you're here making out with that wrench instead of protecting Kagome like you've promised to do many times before. Therefore, I'll be going with you so I don't break my own promise like you've done."

"Let him go after Kagome, Inuyasha. Stay here with me." Kikyo said hugging him from behind.

"I have to go Kikyo."

"Why do you love her? Why can't you just love me like before?" Kikyo let go of him stepping backwards.

"I do love you. But I promised to protect Kagome-"

Seshsomaru ignored the rest of their argument, it had nothing to do with him. "I'll be waiting by the Well. Be sure to hurry up this nonsense."


Seshsomaru was starting to get impatient with his brother. Kagome was in danger and all he's doing is fighting with a dead brod. Inuyasha scent reached him before he got angry.

"Stay here Sesshomaru. This is my fight." Inuaysha voice came before he could see him.

"Your fight? I believe she called out my name when Naraku took her. 'Course, you were too busy somewhere else to notice." He had noticed he had hurt him, he let the satisfaction he felt reach his face so Inuyasha could tell he had meant to hurt him. Before Inuyasha can protest anymore, he grabbed him by the shoulder and forced him down the Well, making sure not to waste any more time.

They entered the other side of the Well with no trouble. Sesshomaru let go of Inuyasha and leaped out of the Well. The house didn't have a single light on. His stomach turned, hoping nothing had happened to Kagome or Rin.

He felt Inuyasha brush pass him and towards the house. "Kagome!"

"She's not in there, Inuyasha. Open your eyes!"

His yell out to his brother didn't stop him from searching the whole house twice. Where could he have gone? There's no traces of his scent or Kagome's. Kagome. Please help me find you.

He closed his eyes and remembered the sweet scent Kagome had. How many times that scent had made him think of unimaginable thoughts at one point. Help me. Kagome. Please. Her scent became stronger, too strong to be a memory. He opened his eyes and flew in the direction it was coming from, not caring if Inuyasha had noticed his flight or not.
