It's been hours since the battle with the snake demon. Suki couldn't believe that she couldn't fight back. She felt so useless. Maybe Yasashiku thought that about her as well. But she wasn't sure about what the young half demon that only feels anger would or could think about. That was Suki's first battle with a real demon and she was scared. She did nothing.

Yasashiku felt what Suki was feeling and he calmly said "Suki... You don't have to worry. It was your first encounter with a evil demon. It could have happened to anyone." She stared at him while saying "but... I was useless. I couldn't do anything. I was just so scared." Yasashiku sighed as he said "just knock it off. It's getting on my nerves! Not to mention your mood is bothering me too! I can sense it so it bugs me! Can't you just stay calm like a normal human!"

Suki stopped walking as she said in a depressed tone "you... don't think I'm normal?" He stared at the now crying girl as he said "I'm only saying that your mood is bothering me and that it's not normal for a girl to think those kind of things. Stop worrying over nothing and calm down for me please."

Suki looked up at him as she said "are you trying to... comfort me?" He let out a "feh" as he said "no! Why would you think that? I would never try to comfort anyone!" Suki smiled. Knowing that this was his way of comforting her. Even though Yasashiku's been alone for 12 years he was still a good person... in his own strange way at least. He stared at her as he said in his calm tone of voice "well... at least your smiling. And now moping around. Let's keep going alright?"

Suki nodded as they both started to walk again. Yasashiku looked up in the sky as they walked. He only had one thing on his mind 'is tonight the night of the new moon? I don't know.'Suki calmly asked "you ok?" Yasashiku snapped out of his thoughts as he said "nothing. I was just wondering if tonight was a new moon. That's all." Suki calmly said "yeah. There is a full moon tonight. Why would you want to know? Would you turn human?"

Yasashiku didn't answer. He looked back at the sky as he thought 'so the new moon is tonight. Once the sun sets I'll transform. I would have to get away from Suki before I end up hurting her.'Than Yasashiku sighed as he said "let's stop here for the night. You should rest." Suki stared at the young half demon as she said "why? I'm not tired." Yasashiku calmly said "you are. It's easy to tell. Now let's just stop walking and rest for the night."

Suki sighed. She knew that no matter what she couldn't and wouldn't win against him. Nothing would get through that hard shell of anger and pain. Than they sat in a clearing. It had a few trees so it was a good place to stay for the night. Yasashiku stared at the now setting sun. He could slightly feel his scar burning. This always happens on the night of the new moon. His scar would burn and he would transform.

Normally with him having human blood in his veins he would become a human. But when that shadow demon attacked him and clawed his eye it didn't just give him new powers but it made sure that he would become something else on the night of the new moon. Suki stared at Yasashiku as he stared at the setting sun. She calmly asked with a hint of concern "are you alright Yasashiku? Your acting a little strange."

He stared at Suki with his icy stare as he said "I'm fine. You stay here. I have to go. I'll be back in the morning. Oh... and if you follow me... You'll end up dead." And with that he walked out of the forest. Suki was confused with what Yasashiku said. Why would she end up dead if she followed him? Would he kill her if she did follow him? Those questions ran through her mind. Than she turned her attention back to the sun set. It was the best time of the day for her.

Thinking about her father almost made her cry. She missed him so much. Thinking about her father made her think about the day he died.

Flash Back!

Suki was ten years old and was walking through the house. She was so happy! Sang came walking in as she said "Suki. Did you have fun with your father today?" Suki smiled brightly as she said "uh huh! I love playing with dad! He's so much fun!" Sango smiled at her daughter as she said "I'm glad that you have so much fun with him. How has your training with him been going?"

Suki happily said "great! Dad said that I've finished all of my training already! I'm ready to learn in the art of demon slaying! I want to continue the demon slayers work! I want to be both a priestess and a demon slayer!" Sango couldn't help but giggle at her daughter. She knew that Suki always wanted to be both a demon slayer and a priestess. It was her dream. Than a tall man walked in the small hut. He had slightly long black hair pulled into a small ponytail, wearing purple and black monk robes. He had the same eyes as Suki and his right hand was covered with a cloth.

Sango happily said "hello Miroku. Any luck trying to open the well?" Miroku sighed sadly as he said "no. It's like Kagome's powers have disappeared. I can't sense it anymore. In fact I couldn't sense it for about three years now. I thought that maybe something bad happened to her and Inuyasha. But so far I feel nothing. But the strange thing is that I did feel this strange power. It was more powerful than Kagome and Inuyasha. But it disappeared too... Well more like ran."

Sango and Suki were confused as they both asked "what do you mean ran?" Miroku sighed sadly as he said "who ever had that power just ran off. It didn't just disappear like Kagome's and Inuyasha's power. I have a feeling that something bad happened to them."

Suki nodded as she said "that could be it father. But you'll just have to wait and see. Maybe your wrong. Maybe they just left and went someplace else. It could be anything right. After all. You always say that Inuyasha and Kagome are very powerful." Miroku smiled at his daughter as he said "yeah. You're right. Maybe I'm just worrying." Suki stared at her father's hand than back to her own. The only thing she has ever feared in her life was the Wind Tunnel.

The curse was never broken from her family. Without Kagome around they couldn't sense the jewel shards anymore. Sighing to herself Suki decided to let it go for now. She knew that if her father couldn't destroy Naraku than she will. Than there was a groan of pain. Suki and Sango both looked at Miroku as he held his right hand in pain. Miroku ran out of the hose dropping his staff. Suki ran after her father with Sango following right behind him.

They ran until they were in the forest. Sango knew what was going on. The Wind Tunnel in her husbands hand was going to suck him up... She held onto Suki saying "no Suki! You mustn't get any closer! If you do than you'll be sucked up by his Wind Tunnel too!" Suki screamed "FATHER! FATHER PLEASE DON'T LEAVE!" Miroku yelled "DON'T WORRY SUKI! I'LL BE LOOKING OUT FOR YOU NO MATTER WHAT! JUST DON'T GIVE UP ON ANYTHING NO MATTER WHAT. AND I'M ALWAYS PROUD OF YOU!"

Than Miroku was sucked up in his Wind Tunnel. Leaving his family. Suki and Sango cried their eyes out as they morned over their lost...

End of Flash Back

Suki had fallen asleep. Tears were streaming down her face as she thought of her past. She just cried endlessly as she slept. While she talked in her sleep. Saying only one word "father..." The sun was starting to raise and Yasashiku was walking back. He was short of breath and was wiped out. His clothes were covered in blood and his hair was all messed up. It looked like he hasn't slept in days.

When he arrived at camp he saw Suki sleeping soundly. Almost. She was crying in her sleep. When he saw that it sent something through him. What was it though? Concern? Worry? He wasn't sure. Than he saw Suki shivering in her sleep. Yasashiku didn't want her to freeze so he took his top off and gave it to Suki to keep her warm.(and yes he still has that white shirt that Inuyasha had under it) Than he jumped in the tree falling asleep as he snored softly.
