Our Fates Were Always Intertwined.

@ momentai.
Nami shook her head, not wanting to argue with him. But it might be a different Era, and different types of danger, but none the less they still both have problems with danger. Letting out a soft yawn she figured she was right not to argue, she didn't have the strength.

---

Sesshomaru bowed his head, letting his hands hold her firmly to him. Pulling in a deep breath he relaxed as her scent evaded his nose.

Inuyasha watched the girl for a few moments before he let out a sigh and looked away. "I guess we'll be crashing here for the night," he muttered, though Kaede offered nothing more than a nod in response.

---

Kimi relished in the feeling of being in his arms and let herself relax. After a few moments, though, she yawned, recalling that she had been planning to sleep before Sesshomaru had found her.

@ momentai.
Nami frowned not liking the idea of imposing on someone. She was used to taking care of herself, though as of late there didn't seem to be any danger lurking near by. But sighing she figured she'd might as well rest, she didn't plan on stressing over things that were out of her hands. Lay down she didn't bother with any form of pillows or blankets.

---

Sesshomaru frowned hearing a yawn leave her body, he didn't want to leave her just yet. He didn't know why he felt drawn to her. But leaving her when he'd just gotten her back didn't set well with him. Shifting he bent down and lifted her from her feet. He knew he wasn't welcome in the village, so moving swiftly he left it behind.

"Are ye cold, Nami?" Kaede asked quietly, though Inuyasha didn't wait for an answer to the old woman's question. Pulling off the protective garment on him, he dropped it on the girl, though he didn't say anything.

---

Kimi blinked in surprise to his actions, a dark blush spreading on her cheeks. Too tired to protest, she just closed her eyes and buried her face against him, being careful of the armor he wore.

@ momentai.
Nami's eyes fluttered opened at Kaede's question. A soft smile played at her lips feeling the weight of Inuyasha;s jacket. Not bothering with answering Kaede she let her eyes close once again, hoping sleep would consume her.

---

Sesshomaru sighed in relief as he felt her cuddle into him. He was glad she hadn't protested him caring her, or even leaving the village. He didn't know why, but it was just something compelled him to. It was almost like Rin, he couldn't explain his attachment to her either.

Inuyasha watched the girl quietly, though it seemed that she was trying to sleep. Before long, he felt eyes on him and he glanced over, noticing Kaede was staring at him with curiosity. Snorting, he looked away and ignored the old woman.

---

It was fairly easy for Kimi to drift off to sleep. She felt safe in Sesshomaru's arms, so she figured that probably had something to do with how easy she managed to fall asleep.

@ momentai.
Sesshomaru moved quickly through the wooded area, only stopping when he noticed a familiar scent on the air. Rin was near by. Walking straight into their camp. He could hear Jaken's voice, he was scolding Rin. Something that wasn't new. "Silence." He spat out, his voice was soft but strong, he didn't want to wake the sleeping figure in his arms. He knew that both Rin and Jaken had questions, but at this moment he just wanted quite. Setting himself down on the ground he laid back, his hold never wavering. Though he did shift her enough not to come in contact with his armor.

(Should I just skip to the next day for everybody? :) )

@ momentai.
(That works)

(Okay~)

Morning came sooner than Inuyasha really would have liked. He had rested a bit through the night, but not all that much. He was more concerned with how somebody else had managed to get over from the other era, but he tried not to think about it too much. Glancing over, he noticed that Kaede was asleep, so he let his gaze drop to Nami as he was curious if she would wake up soon or not.

---

Kimi had slept rather peacefully throughout the night, though, when morning came, she was woken by two voices. "What do you suppose Lord Sesshomaru is doing with that human?" one voice asked, though another softer voice quickly said, "Shh, Master Jaken! You'll wake her!" Blinking awake, Kimi glanced towards the sources of the voices with confusion.

@ momentai.
Nami shifted, feeling a heavy weight and an unbearable heat. Shoving Inuyasha's jacket to the floor, she figured she'd have to get use to the change. But heat and her really didn't mix. Letting out a soft groan she sat up, deciding now would be better to get up, she wouldn't be going back to sleep anyways.

---

Sesshomaru could hear Jaken and Rin talking about Kimi, but he chose to ignore them. He was actually comfortable laying there with her cuddled into his side. He frowned feeling her shift, he knew she had awaken. And if he hadn't wanted to stay with her in his embrace he would have already struck Jaken down for running his loud mouth.

Inuyasha watched her for a moment before he stood up and retrieved his jacket and tugged it back on. "Are you planning to return to your home?" he asked after a moment or so. Kagome had always complained about going home, after all, so it wouldn't surprise him if she planned to go home, too.

---

Kimi stared at the two quietly, though it seemed that they were just conversing amongst themselves. With a yawn, she shifted to curl up beside Sesshomaru and buried her face against him again. Letting herself relax, she couldn't help but to enjoy being close to him.

@ momentai.
Nami frowned at his questioned, "if I could go home don't you think I'd have done it last night." She informed him. She didn't know for sure but she could be stuck here. So reason the well opened up and brought her here, and really she wondered why.

---

Sesshomaru felt a soft smile tug at his lips. Her body press flush against him, made him happy. He didn't know what was going on with him, but she was winding her way around his heart unknowingly to him.

That was strange, Inuyasha thought. He only knew of it being impossible for some people to go to both sides or just be in one, never that they could go to the other and be stuck. "It looks like we'll have to figure out how to get you back there," he muttered quietly.

---

Kimi found it fairly easy to just relax, but the little imp demon came rushing over. "Lord Sesshomaru, why is that human here? Wasn't Rin enough human company?" he asked. "Master Jaken!" Rin called out, "You'll make Lord Sesshomaru angry!"

@ momentai.
Nami furrowed her brows before smiling at him. "Really?" She questioned him, not understanding why he'd want to help her. After all last night he'd been more than enough help. She figured she'd be stuck here, but if he was willing to help her get home then she wouldn't complain.

---

Sesshomaru glared over at the imp, he wasn't happy that he'd disturbed his piece. He wanted to lay and relax for awhile, it was completely unlike him. But at the moment he couldn't explain anything that was going on with him. It was like this mire human girl had him under a spell. But he remember as a child he was always by her side. It was always the two of them.

Inuyasha was surprised with the smile that Nami offered him. He couldn't help but to stare at her for a few moments before he glanced away. "Yeah, really," he answered her before he let out a sigh. "It's dangerous here for normal humans."

---

Rin made her way over to the two upon noticing that the two were fully awake. Crouching down, she grinned. "Hi, I'm Rin!" she greeted cheerfully. Offering a small smile, Kimi forced herself away from Sesshomar and sat up as she rubbed her eyes. "I'm Kimi."

@ momentai.
Nami rolled her eyes, "you kept saying that last night too." She chuckled, before standing. Then stretched out her tired muscles. "Do you have any idea on how I can go home?" She questioned, because honestly she was lost.

---

Sesshomaru frowned at the lost of contact, and the fact his peace was disrupted. Rolling his eyes he sat up, choosing to ignore the disruptions. While his gaze fell onto Kimi.

"Because it's true," Inuyasha said honestly, though he was sure that the girl wouldn't believe him. She had lived in a better, safer era, so how could he expect her to believe that it was dangerous here? "I don't know how to help you get back. Kagome could come between my era and hers because of the sacred jewel, but it was destroyed."

---

Rin grinned and nodded eagerly. "It's nice to meet you, Kimi!" she said happily before peering curiously at Kimi and tilting her head, "Lord Sesshomaru, how do you and Kimi know each other?" Kimi blinked at the question, but she couldn't say that she was too surprised with it.

@ momentai.
Nami smiled at him, "well maybe you're stuck with me." She teased him, feeling quite at ease with him. Even if he did call himself a half demon. She hadn't met a bad demon yet so she couldn't really base anything off of but what was right before her eyes.

---

Sesshomaru frowned at Rin not liking her questioning him. He had a lot of patience when it came to the child. But he knew Jaken was standing very close, and he didn't like talking in front of the imp, because he always had something to say. "We've been friends for a long time." Was all he told the child, he knew he wasn't being forth coming.

Inuyasha blinked to her words and glanced over. Though part of him thought the idea might not be so bad, he also knew how dangerous it was here. And a huge part of him wanted to keep her safe already; he blamed it on her being a human from a different era. "Maybe," he said after a few moments before shrugging, "Are you hungry? Granny there might make something when she wakes up."

---

Rin listened intently and gaped at the news. "Really?" she questioned. "Hush, you!" Jaken snapped, "Can't you see you're bothering Lord Sesshomaru?" Kimi turned her attention to the imp quietly before she let out a sigh. "That one is a bit obnoxious, isn't he?" she hummed out and Rin giggled and nodded quickly.
