Disclaimer: Nothing belongs to me...except Meilin, Mirage, and Subaya.

A/N:Here's another chapter for you all. Feel free to make suggestions on a new name for this story...So far, I haven't come up with anything yet. Leave your suggestions in your reviews and then I will pick the one that I believe will fit this story best.

Here's the new chapter.

Where we last left off:

"I am back, Lord Naraku," Subaya announced.

"Did you complete the task?" he asked.

Subaya nodded.

"She is questioning herself now," Subaya explained, "questioning everything."

Naraku nodded and sent Subaya away.

"Soon..." Naraku promised, "soon."

Now on with the story...

Note:

iiiiii are thoughts of the person's POV.
uuuuuu is Yoko talking to Kurama and Kagome.
+llllll+ is Kurama talking to Yoko and Kagome.
-aaaaa- is Kagome talking to Yoko and Kurama.
(jfjfjfj) is Hiei talking to Yoko and Kurama.

/lllll/ is change between point of views.

/Kurama's POV/

What is taking so long? Yoko whined.

+Patience, Yoko+ I replied +You can't rush these things.+

I turned to Hiei.

Read her mind, Hiei Yoko commanded.

(I already did, fox) Hiei muttered.

+And+ I asked.

(She had a nightmare) Hiei said, replaying the images in our minds.

We saw the nightmare...the pain she went through...

Our kitten doesn't believe that, does she? Yoko wondered.

(Does it matter?) Hiei asked.

No one asked you Yoko growled.

+Calm down+ I said +Arguing never solved anything.+

Hiei's sister, Yukina, entered the room. Hiei went and got her since she specializes in healing others.

Yukina is nothing like Hiei. She is a sweet girl while Hiei has a bit of a temper on him.

"How is she?" I asked.

"Sleeping," she replied, "although I am sensing some conflict within her."

She is scared Yoko explained.

"Hiei, can you read her mind again?" I asked.

Hiei nodded, and we went into Kagome's room.

She was on the bed, unconscious. Her arms and legs were wrapped in bandages.

Hiei gazed at Kagome.

"Well?" I asked after a few minutes go by.

"She is questioning her worth...her abilities...you...everything," Hiei explained, "She is unsure and confused."

/Author's POV/

The lone figure called Mirage entered the hallway and was greeted by Sesshomaru.

"Who are you?" he asked, glaring at her.

"It seems a shame that you would forget me," she replies, her face showing no emotion, "I am Mirage, the one who was to marry your brother, Inuyasha."

His eyes widened.

"You're still alive?" he asked.

She nodded, never removing her eyes from his.

"And what brings you here?" he asked.

"I was sent here by Koenma to help his spirit detectives," she explained, rolling her eyes as she did so.

Sesshomaru nodded and led Mirage to another room. All the spirit detectives, along with Inuyasha, Shippo, and Rin, were there. They all look up as Mirage followed Sesshomaru.

"Who the hell are you?" Inuyasha grumbled.

"I am Mirage," she announced.

"She was sent here by Koenma to help," Sesshomaru explained.

Yusuke snorted at the comment. Kuwabara and Kurama just nodded, while Hiei glared at Mirage.

"Did the toddler send you to do our dirty work then?" Yusuke asked Mirage.

"Yes," she responded, "since you obviously do not have the talent to do so."

Yusuke glared at her and raised his hand in an attempt to use the spirit gun.

"Bring it on," Mirage whispered. She raised her hands and prepared to attack.

"Stop!" Kurama cried out, "how is that going to help?"

Yusuke glared at Mirage once more before sitting next to Inuyasha. Mirage lowered her hands, glaring back at him before looking at Kurama

"How is she?" Mirage asked, referring to Kagome.

"Sleeping," Kurama replied.

"How do you know about Kagome?" Inuyasha glared at Mirage.

"Everyone knows about the legendary priestess," she rolled her eyes.

Inuyasha got up and took out Tetsuaiga.

Mirage turned to Sesshomaru.

"And your father wanted me to marry him?" she complained, causing gasps throughout the room.

A/N: There you have it. Another beautifully well-written chapter if I do say so myself. Don't forget to read and review.
