Chapter 7: Two Hearts, One Mind

Inuyasha felt uncomfortable talking to Miroku the way he was, and yet it felt kind of right to him. He wasn't sure why but he like the fact that at least someone besides himself knew the true feelings he had for Hanon. Even if she gave him a big headache with all those incantations, he smiled and back up at Miroku, then gave him a stern look.

"She better not find out about this Miroku or slice that stupid smile of your face!" he yelled, which made him only smile more.

"Well it nice to see the old Inuyasha back now, well I give you my word Hanon will have no knowing of this conversation" he said and balled him hand into a fist and put his fist over his heart. Inuyasha grunted,

'Yeah, yeah just don't tell any one included the runt, and the little brat, I know for sure they have big mouths" said Inuyasha, Miroku only nodded, and left back to find Sango. Inuyasha stayed behind and stared up at the sky.

"It's going to be that time of night soon" he spoke to himself; the night of the new moon was when Inuyasha turned into a full human. All half-demons had that certain time period,

"Inuyasha" said a voice, familiar but the scent was all wrong. He knew it was Hanon, but he missed her ocean scent. He turned to face her,

"Hanon" he began but Hanon cut him off.

"I wanted to say sorry" she said, and sat next to him. Inuyasha could feel himself stiffen, that's right, Hanon would always apologize first because I never could he thought to himself,

"You shouldn't be sorry, I should it was my fault that you're the way you are" he said, seriously on the brink of tears, but he didn't want to make her feel any worse then she already did about being a demon. She laughed at Inuyasha,

"Inuyasha you think I'm not happy, I love it actually and I kind of wanna stay this way, besides I just got done talking with Aqua-Regina and she had granted me back my fins, even though I will never be who I was, I will always be a demon, and I know you don't like it-" Inuyasha cut her off.

"Hanon" he said and pulled her into his arms. He could feel her heart beating fast, he held her tightly, not wanting to let her go.

"Inuyasha" she whispered breathlessly. He closed his eyes and began to speak,

"I just want to let you know how sorry I am, I don't want to let you go and I swear I won't let anything like this happen to you again" he said holding on to her tighter. Hanon moved to stare up at him. He stared deep into her deep icy blue cat-like eyes and wished to could get lost in them, she was so beautiful. Even though she was a princess, she didn't act like one. Hanon just wanted to know how to live, Hanon had always told him how much she had liked some parts of her old life, but she had always wanted more. She wanted to live and interact with the humans around, and wanted to love. She ended up getting her wish and lived on land for the rest for her life, Inuyasha loved when they had met; he had been drawn to her voice and found her in her mermaid form singing a song under a beautiful waterfall which made her look like a goddess. Never before had he ever seen anyone so beautiful and graceful as Hanon. He began to caress her long black hair, and he could her cat ears twitch at his touch.

"Inuyasha, lets makes a truce, what happen in the past is in the past Kay' "she said, Inuyasha smile a little.

"Okay, do you need to go back home to find some new clothes?" he asked, he watched as Hanon looked at herself and began to blush.

"I, uh, well, I um, yes" she stuttered, Inuyasha laughed, and motioned her to get on his back.

"Well go back tonight, I can tell you want to get out of that" he said, she only nodded and climbed on his back. At that second Inuyasha began to run, and he was fast, mostly because he could smell dinner and he was starving. A lot had happen today, included his conversation with Kikyo that Inuyasha had lied to Hanon about. He had asked Kikyo about Rini, and the mention of her name had made Kikyo jump. Which meant that Rini wasn't lying, Kikyo had said to make that Naraku didn't know that Rini was with them or he will try to kill her, The reason Rini had gotten attacked and raped by Naraku and his minions is because Naraku wanted her to kill a half-demon named, (you guessed it) Inuyasha. When she refused to do it because she to was a half-demon she tried to run away, but of course she wasn't able to get away because of a certain person, Kagura. Inuyasha was disgusted at Rini's story, how could Naraku do such a terrible thing? There was only one way to make everyone's pain to go away, and that is for Naraku to die. They reached the well and Hanon jumped off and followed Inuyasha through the well, before they knew it, they were back in Hanon's time. There were so many lights in her world, it was pretty weird but he liked it. He followed Hanon back to Kaiba Corp, Industries where Hanon lived which was a huge building with tons of glass that reflected your image of yourself. Hanon's room was at the top floor of the building, Hanon had said it was forty-two stories, whatever that meant. It was dark and quiet in the building, and he knew that Hanon didn't want to wake up her brothers, because if she did both of them would freak and not let Hanon travel back with him to his era. Kaiba was a huge push over; Hanon motioned him to stay out of the room while she changed. She came out with the same outfit she had began with, the short white filled skirt, with a white strapless top, and long white boots. Her hair was black instead of blue and she wore a little blue bow at the end of her cat tail.

"Let's go" she said in a hurry. Inuyasha began to follow her but stopped when he heard a noise.

"Wait, I hear something" he said, Hanon nodded

"Yeah me to, and I don't want to stay here and wait for Kaiba to wake up and lock me in my room so can we go?" she angrily. Inuyasha shook his head,

"NO, it's not Kaiba it's another scent, it smells… it smells..." he stopped when he heard Hanon gasped loudly at what was behind him.

"Yugi"

Yugi? Who is that?
