"Hey, how are you feeling?" Kagome asked as soon as Sesshomaru opened his eyes.

He looks at the young girl with the foreign clothing. "...Better," he answers, putting his hand up to his forehead. His headache seems to have faded. That's a good sign. He looks out towards the window behind Kagome. The sky was already orange and crimson red. "Sunset?"

"Mhm, you've been asleep for quite a while," Sango said, nodding her head to the demon.

"That's my fault," Kagome apologized. "I accidentally gave you the nighttime pills instead,"

'Nighttime pills?' Sesshomaru thought, noticing that the people from this morning were back in the room with him. 'Why do they look at me so cautiously?' Sesshomaru thought, looking at the monk and the demon with the dog ears. It's not like he's gonna attack them or anything.

"Lord Sesshomaru," the little girl with the orange kimono says, sitting down beside her Lord with a small bag in hand. "Do you remember Rin?" she asked, looking at her Lord hopefully. Kagome had told her and everyone else that Lord Sesshomaru has lost his memory. She didn't want to believe Kagome's words, so she had to ask her Lord in person.

"I do not," Sesshomaru replied in his expressionless voice.

Rin sighed in sadness but then smiles brightly. "Don't worry, Rin will help you get better," she says, handing Sesshomaru the small bag she held. "For you," she says as he sits up and receives the bag from her small hands. He examines it suspiciously. "They're cherries," Rin giggled, happy to see that Sesshomaru's habit of inspecting the things she would give him was still there.

Sesshomaru opens the small bag. "So they are," he says, putting one of the small cherries in his mouth. He ALMOST sighs in contempt as the sweet flavor fills his mouth. A small smile graces his lips. He nods at the little girl to show his gratitude. Rin nods back before hugging her Lord. He looks down at the little girl and pats her head gently. He can't help but feel bonded with the small human. His smile quickly leaves his lips. It felt strange to smile. Like it wasn't in his nature.

"Cease your hands from my Lord Sesshomaru!" the green demon shrieks. "Such actions is unforgivable," he says as Rin pulls away, still smiling at her Lord.

"Will you shut up," Inuyasha says, defending Rin. "Let her do what she wants."

"But Lord Sesshomaru would never-"

"-Green demon," Sesshomaru says, interrupting Jaken's rant.

Jaken flinches and turns towards his Lord. "Yes me Lord?" he asked, bowing his head.

"Be silent," he says, narrowing his eyes at the shocked demon. He's had enough of the damn yelling. At this rate his headache would surely comeback. Plus, how dare he yell at the little girl who gave him such a thoughtful gift? He would not allow such an act to continue!

"Uh yes, my deep apologies my Lord," Jaken, quickly said before shutting his mouth tightly.

'I see his high and mightiness is still there,' Inuyasha rolled his eyes. He felt his chest tighten up at the sight of Sesshomaru and Rin act so comfortable with each other. 'He's fine with a human girl but when it comes to his half breed brother he tries to kill me?' Inuyasha thought angrily.

"Tell me Rin," Sesshomaru says, focusing his attention back at the little girl. "How do you know me?" Rin smiles at her Lord before explaining how she found her Lord badly hurt in the forest and how he saved her life. "Why was I in such conditions?" Sesshomaru asked, furrowing his brows.

Kagome, Sango, and Miroku looked at each other in worry. Should they tell Sesshomaru what happened that day?

"I can answer that my Lord," Jaken suddenly said. "It was that half breeds fault that you were put near death," he shrieks, pointing his Nintōjō(A/N his two headed staff) at Inuyasha.

"half breed?" Sesshomaru questions as he looks up at Inuyasha. Well that explains the odd mixture of scents Inuyasha had.

"Shut up toad," Inuyasha warned at Jaken. "It wasn't my fault, he was the one who started it,"

"Inuyasha!" Kagome scolded.

"What?" he asked, narrowing his eyes at Kagome.

"Now's not the time to bring such a memory to Sesshomaru," Miroku whispers to Inuyasha, though not quiet enough for Sesshomaru's pointed ears to pick up.

"How did I initiate a battle between us?" Sesshomaru asked. Though with a blank expression, Sesshomaru was curious as to why they fought.

"Well since you're asking," Inuyasha starts as he pushes himself off of the wall he was leaning on and walks towards Sesshomaru. "You, like always, were trying to kill me and take my Tessaiga," Inuyasha spat out.

"Inuyasha enough," Kagome scolded, standing beside the dog demon.

"What is this Tessaiga?" Sesshomaru questioned.

"This is Tessaiga," Inuyasha says, drawing his sword from its seal.

Sesshomaru's eyes widen slightly as he gazed upon the large sword in front of him. How did that seal hold such a large weapon? His heart rate quicken and his hands twitched. '...Tessaiga...' a voice deep within Sesshomaru growled.

"Inuyasha put that away," Kagome says, bringing Sesshomaru out of his thoughts.

"You wanted Tessaiga all to yourself, to have its power, to make everyone around you fear the great Lord of the West. But knowing that I, a half breed, was the swords master you tried multiple times to kill me. Despite being your little brother you wanted me gone from this world because half breeds like me don't deserve to breath the same air you do! You're a cruel, tyrannical being who only cares about himself!"

"Inuyasha!" Kagome yelled.

"What?!" Inuyasha yelled back at the highschool as they suddenly start an argument.

"Lord Sesshomaru?" Rin questions as she looks at her Lord worriedly.

'I tried to kill my own kin?' Sesshomaru thought. Even with his blank expression he was in utter shock. He felt a pang of guilt in his chest. '...Tessaiga...' the voice said again in his head. 'All because of a damn sword?' Sesshomaru thought angrily. So now he knows he was a cold person. One who no one wants to be around. To think he would actually kill his brother all because of a sword. He's despicable, a beast. 'I need air,' Sesshomaru thought as he stood up from his bed.

"Lord Sesshomaru?" Jaken and Rin questioned as the demon Lord headed towards the door.

"You should lay back down, after all you're still recovering from the fall," Miroku said, standing in front of the door way to prevent Sesshomaru from leaving.

"Demon's recover much quicker then humans, my body is already healed," Sesshomaru explained, remembering some things about being a demon, "besides, me being here brings discomfort and anger to my brother." Sesshomaru gently moves the monk aside and slides the door open.

"My Lord, don't leave me alone with this humans!" Jaken cried as he tried to follow Sesshomaru. "What about your armor and swords?"

"Let him go Jaken," Miroku says, making the green demon glare at him. "He needs time to himself,"

"You see what you did now?!" Kagome scolded at Inuyasha. "You made Sesshomaru leave,"

"Hey don't blame me! I was just telling him the truth!" Inyasha defended, putting Tessaiga back in its seal.

"Did you have to rub it in his face? The man probably feels guilty now," Sango also scolded.

"Tsk, whatever," Inuyasha scoffed, feeling guilty all of a sudden. He didn't mean to overreact. The resentment he had towards his brother suddenly came out.

Unfortunately for the group of friends, none of them sensed the presence of someone powerful watching them. 'Now's the time to act.'


Sesshomaru leaned against a large tree and looked up at the orange sky. 'Was I really so cold?' Sesshomaru thought, Inuyasha's words echoing in his head. All of Inuyasha's words felt like swords stabbing his chest. The poor demon had to endure having a brother like him. If he is the bastard Inuyasha is claiming him to be then why did he help him when he fell down the waterfall? He could have just left him there. Why come to his rescue?

A sigh escaped Sesshomaru's lips as he let his eyes flutter close. 'Is it possible to hate who you once were?' he thought, feeling the wind pass by. An odd, familiar, scent suddenly fills his nose. 'What is this?' he thought as he opened his eyes and looked around. He narrowed his eyes. Someone was watching him. Was it the same presence from this morning?

"Sesshomaru," he heard a dark voice whisper from behind. Not wanting the intruder to escape Sesshomaru dashed around the tree and pinned someone against the tree by the neck.

"Who are you?" Sesshomaru asked. Blank expression on as always.

"My darling, do you not remember me?" the man with the long raven hair asked. A surprised expression gracing his face.

'Darling?' Sesshomaru thought, narrowing his eyes at the demon he held. "Answer my question," Sesshomaru warned.

"It's me," the demon says, his red eyes staring directly at Sesshomaru's golden ones, "Your lover, Naraku."
