Author's Note:So I decided to finish this story whether people like it or not. Mostly because i can't stop thinking about it. If you like it, please review. Also this is quite a bit longer than the previous chapter.

DISCLAIMER: I do not own Inuyasha!

I wonder where I am…And more importantly WHO am I?

It has been 5 years since Naraku's defeat and a new treat was looming. Inuyasha, Kagome, Sango, Miroku, Shippo, Rin, and Sesshomaru were sitting in the camp for the night. Well, Inuyasha and Kagome were fighting over something, the rest were resting.

"SIT BOY!"

Inuyasha went face first into the dirt. Sesshomaru smirked at this. He always enjoyed it when the miko "sat" his younger brother. He could be bothersome at times. They had managed to get on better terms since the evil hanyo's demise but they were not prone to brotherly affection. Sesshomaru believed that with time, it would happen; and he would make it happen.

Kagome stormed off to sit with Sango and Rin. The girls had just come back from the hot spring nearby and were combing out their hair from their bath. Rin had grown up beautifully. She was becoming a woman and, despite his best intentions, he was becoming more and more attracted to her. This is why he personally trained her in combat and self-defense. She had also become a master swordswoman in near record time; she has beaten him on a few occasions. The katana she carried was in fact his fang, and it only responded to her. The one time he tried to use it, a barrier formed and scorched his hand black.

He decided that he needed a bath, if only to escape for a bit. He got up and walked towards the hot spring. Rin looked up at him as he passed. He looked into her eyes, a silent plea to let him have a few moments peace in his eyes. She understood and went back to talking with the girls about some medicinal herb they discovered on this trip.

Arriving at the hot spring, he stripped. Laying his clothes and Bakusaiga near the water for easy access, he stepped into the water. He sighed as she sank up to his chin in the hot water, relaxed all his muscles and let the hot water soak in and relive all the tension and ache from travel these few weeks. He closed his eyes and enjoyed a few moments of peace.

Suddenly he heard leaves rustling nearby. The great lord stood up and threw out his senses to see where the noise came from. He discovered the culprit was on the other side of the spring almost directly across from him. He focused on letting his poison coat his claws in preparation for his possible attacker. Only to see a beautiful young woman stumble out from the underbrush.

"Ow! Stupid branch…"

The branch in question had caught in her braid and was tugging back on it. She turned to release herself. Once satisfied that the branch and no other foliage were out to get her, she turned back towards the heat and water she scented, hoping for a quick, if primitive, bath. Instead she found the most gorgeous male she ever laid eyes on. Pearlesant skin covered lean muscles, platinum silver hair floated around him covering what was below the surface. As she dragged her eyes up to his face they instantly locked eyes and she saw they were like molten gold, and they were angry. She blushed and hastily turned around to give him some privacy.

"Oh, I'm sorry! I didn't mean to interrupt. I didn't even know anyone was here."

She was about to leave when a soft commanding baritone reached her ears.

"Who are you?"

She stopped, closing her eyes she turned around to speak with him.

"Honestly I do not know who I am. I don't know where I am either."

"You have no memory?"

"No. Nothing before waking up on the river bank this morning."

He watched her, scenting to see if she told the truth. Concluding that she was, he slipped out the spring and put on his hakamas and walked over to her. She still had the blush and it looked very enticing on her. He tilted her chin up to have her look at him but her eyes were still closed.

"Look at me"

She complied and he saw her eyes were a very unique color, or should he say mixture of colors; they looked like a sunset.

"Again I'm sorry for interrupting your bath."

He didn't hear her. He was sniffing to see if she was ill or hurt. Satisfied that she wasn't, he let go of her chin and walked back to the rest of his clothes. He finished getting dressed, turned toward her. She was standing there looking at him. He scented her slight arousal and her disappointment at his dressing.

"Follow me."

He tuned, walking back to camp. She followed, jogging to catch up to him.

Then they came close to the camp she heard started hearing voices. Wary of the strangers, she stepped back behind the man she was with.

If they attack, they will hit him first. Gives me a chance to run.

Sesshomaru noticed her movement as they broke into the clearing. She hung back at the border. Rin was the first to notice her lords return. She walked up to him.

"Welcome back, my lord. Did you enjoy your bath?"

He turned his head slightly to look behind him. That's when Rin noticed the woman behind him. She was stunning, almost a beautiful as her lord. At her voice everyone had turned and was now looking at the young woman.

"Oh, who is this, my lord?"

"She has lost her memory. Kagome?"

"Yes?"

"Please see if you can find out why she lost her memory. Rin, get her some food. She hasn't eaten all day."

A chorus of "Ok" sounded from the girls. Rin took the woman's hand guiding her toward Kagome.

"Don't worry we won't hurt you. What is your name?"

"I don't know."

"Well hopefully Kagome can help you remember. My name is Rin."

Rin pointed out the woman that responded to the name Kagome. Then pointed to herself.

"That's Sango. Miroku. Shippo. Inuyasha. AUn. And Kiara."

Rin pointed to each in turn and they waved as their names were stated, Kiara and AUn making their own greetings.

"And the man who brought me here?"

"His name is Lord Sesshomaru. He is the Lord of the Western Lands."

The woman nodded her head in acknowledgement. She sat in front of Kagome.

"Kagome will take care of you while I go get you supper. I'll be right back."

"So lost your memory?"

Kagome looked at her. A mixture of sadness and curiosity in her eyes.

"Yes. How can you help me?"

"I'm a priestess. The most powerful one in this age. I can look inside your mind and see what happened to you. I may even be able to return your memories to you."

"Oh. Ok. What do you need me to do?"

"Nothing. Just relax. I'm going to put my hands on your temples and pour my spiritual energy in to you. That is how I'll find out what happened and how to bring your memories back."

"Okay. Let's do this."

Kagome put her hands on the girls' temples and closed her eyes. The girl followed Kagome's instructions; closing her eyes and relaxing. At first she felt nothing. Then slowly she felt a pressure, like a head ache. That pressure built up coming to the point where it was almost unbearable. She wanted to scream from the pain but didn't. Kagome was panting from the effort of whatever she was doing. Then suddenly the pressure and pain went away. They were both panting then, she realized. And Kagome was looking at her in confusion and shock.

"What happened?"

"Your memories are locked up behind a barrier. One that I am not capable of destroying. I'm sorry."
