Sesshomaru sensed something powerful approaching as he explained the dates of the Sengoku Jidai to the younger boy. They were debating the reasons for the warlords fighting among themselves for very little gain, when the bell rang and Souta excused himself. When the door opened something he hadn't smelled in over 500 years reached his nose and involuntarily, his body reacted.

*The miko! It can't be. Wait, I smell something else.*

The small girl child that pranced into the room was a bit of a shock. Her platinum pigtails flew into her face as she screeched to a halt beside his knee.

"Hello!" She chirped, showing no fear of him; only profound interest.

"Hi," Sesshomaru could smell the miko and something that was faintly youkin, but the latter seemed to be being repressed. He studied the child carefully and decided she didn't have the power to suppress her demon blood so it was being done for her. He looked at her earrings, the tiny pearl necklace, and the gold coloured bracelet on her small wrist.

*Which of these is the ward?* he wondered. *I know she's wearing one for, though she appears to be human, her full youkin blood is strong.*

When the miko rounded the corner and gaped at him, he knew he had to leave or risk questions from the boy. After introductions, Sesshomaru gathered his books and papers and departed.

*The boy says she is his sister, but that would make her 25 or 26, not over 500 years old. What magics are at work here?*

He tossed his things onto the backseat of his car and took off faster that was really necessary. It didn't take long for him to get home, to his modest 2 bedroom house. As he was a college student again, it would not due to live in his mansion, so he was staying in town, close to school.

He pushed open the door to the house and winced. His teenage roommate was playing his music at a painfully high level. Sesshomaru put his hands over his ears.

"SHIPPO!! TURN IT DOWN!!"

The sound ceased abruptly and the lanky kitsune appeared at the top of the stairs, his long red hair spilling carelessly over his bare shoulders. He hated his hair, but it had made him quite popular with the girls at school.

"So you're back." The teenaged fox curled his lip at the older demon.

"Yes; did you clean your room like I asked?"

The boy sniffed dismissivly then jumped down to stand before Sesshomaru and got close to his face. "You saw my mama didn't you?"

Sesshomaru took a step back. "Your mama?"

"Hai . . .Kagome. She could time travel through the Bone Eater's Well. This is her time and I can smell her! Where was she!?"

The Western Lord sniffed and brushed past the younger demon. "You forget yourself, Shippo. 500 years is a long time-"

"For us, you baka! Mama came to the Sengoku Jidai from here! Now where is she!?"

"Forget it. She would not know you." Annoyed , Shippo returned to his room for a shirt, then left the house, determined to find his mother, even if he had to search all of Japan to do it.
