"Shori, what are you doing?" I asked and she turned quickly, she stared

at me.

"Someone locked me in here. Where is Shippo?" she asked looking

worried. I pointed towards the living room, she made her way to

Shippo's side. As Shori watched over the rest of the family, Sesshomaru and I

tried to find out what happened. I walked to the banister where we

found my dad and there was a note sitting on the floor. I picked it

up and read:

I am still here.

The rest of the family perished, but I escaped.

I will be back

Ginkotsu

"Sesshomaru" I called, he came up the stairs.

"What is it?" he asked looking at me, I handed him the letter. When

he finished reading it he stared at me. "Who is Ginkotsu?" he asked, we

could hear Shori whispering to someone.

"Ginkotsu was my dad's brother we thought he was dead but I guess he's

here." I said walking around Sesshomaru and into the living room where my

dad was awake and staring up at me.

"Dad it was Ginkotsu wasn't it?" I asked and he nodded.

"What do you want us to do?" I asked looking at my brothers' who were

watching dad.

"You need to go into the past and find out what happened that night.

When you return you should know where to find Ginkotsu and destroy him

before he comes back and kills us off." Dad said, I walked to the

bookcase that had all of our spell books. I pulled out the book that

had the spell for transporting to a certain time. My brothers'

starting to get up but I shook my head.

"You guys need to stay here and heal, Sesshomaru and I can handle this. Shori

take care of them." I said, I walked out of the room with Sesshomaru right

behind me. I walked into our room and started the spell.

Take us to the past

The day my family was destroyed

Show me the shadows of the past

Help us our Goddess, our mother

Take us to the past

After the spell was said, the walls dissolved and we were in the

valley. We walked a little ways until we saw my family fighting a

giant demon. Their powers were fully developed. I watched as one by

one were killed and turned to dust. I watched as Ginkotsu talked to the

demon and then ran off. I looked at Sesshomaru, he shook his head. The demon

disappeared, I knew we had to destroy the demon, then Ginkotsu. We

flashed back to the present, but we heard the front door crash open.

We grabbed our weapons and headed downstairs to protect my injured

family members.

"GINKOTSU" I yelled as I came around the corner, he had a sword pointed

above my fathers heart. "I know what happened 152 years ago." I said

trying to distract him.

"And who are you my dear?" he asked staring at me then looked at Sesshomaru

standing behind me.

"I am your niece and those boys there are your nephews. I just

returned from the past. You betrayed our family, you had an alliance

with the demon that killed everyone" I said, I looked towards Shori who

was laying on the floor under the window, she looked up at me. My

father opened his eyes after hearing what I said.

"You are part of the protectors' now. Well that means you have to die

too." Ginkotsu said and my dad stared at me.

"Why are you killing your own family members?" I asked watching his

sword lower, he turned and pointed the sword at me. Sesshomaru moved to

stand in front of me but I put my hand up to stop him, he looked down

at me but understood I had a plan.

"I am killing them, because once all the protectors' are dead, I will

receive all of their powers." He said walking towards me, still

pointing the sword at my chest. I looked up at Sesshomaru who was looking

around the room and found what he was looking for. The demon was in

shadow form, I saw it standing behind Ginkotsu. I whispered to Sesshomaru.

Take out the demon I will handle Ginkotsu.
