Ayamara's mouth stay wide opened when Jiamara closed it. "Idiot. What are you drooling at?" Jiamara asked. "Nothing. Sesshomaru looks different." Ayamara answered. Sesshomaru was wearing a maroon kimono and a different armour. His pants was black and wearing the same boots. He tied his hair up in a high ponytail.

"Where's your boa, Sesshomaru?" Rin asked. "It's still wet." Sesshomaru answered. Jiamara wonder why Sesshomaru looks different without wearing his boa. She also noticed that he also tie his hair for the first time. "Your brother really look different in his new look, Inuyasha." Miroku said. "I know. I thought his boa stay in his shoulder for the whole time." Inuyasha said. "If Jaken didn't spilled the water on him, he would still wear it." Miroku said. "Are all the rooms were clean?" Sesshomaru asked. "Yeah. All the rooms in this castle were all clean and set." Kagome said.

"All the things and furniture were also clean and set." Sango said. "We also sweep the whole yard outside." Ayamara said. "Well done, everyone." Sesshomaru said. "Well. I'm starving from the whole day cleaning." Miroku said. "Luckily. I already cooked up." Kagome said. After dinner, they all went to sleep. Sesshomaru was sleeping peacefully when he dreamed when he and Inuyasha were young.

Flashback

Sesshomaru was about 17 years old, while Inuyasha was only 11. They were so close in that time when their father and Inuyasha's mother Lady Izayoi were alive. One day, Sesshomaru was resting under the cherry blossom tree when Inuyasha started tugging his sleeve. "What?" Sesshomaru asked. "Let's go for a walk." Inuyasha said. "I can't, Inuyasha. I'm going somewhere later." Sesshomaru replied. "Come on, Onii-san. Just this time." Inuyasha begged. Sesshomaru rolled his eyes. "All right." he said.

Sesshomaru and Inuyasha walked in the fields filled with Cherry Blossom trees and green grass swaying with the gentle wind. They lay down in the grass and looked up in the blue sky. "Isn't a beautiful day, Onii-san?" Inuyasha asked. "It is, Inuyasha." Sesshomaru said. "When we grow up, we can meet here again if we're separated. Do you agree?" Inuyasha asked. "Yeah. This place make our times unforgettable." Sesshomaru replied.

"If I die, will you forget me?" Inuyasha asked innocently. Sesshomaru was shocked with that question. "No, Inuyasha. I'll protect you with all my life." Sesshomaru answered. Sesshomaru suddenly felt that Inuyasha had fallen asleep in his lap. "Inuyasha?" he asked. "I love you, Onii-san." Inuyasha said. Sesshomaru smiled. His little brother loved him. "I love you too, Inuyasha." he said and planted a soft kiss in Inuyasha's forehead.

(Suddenly, Sesshomaru's dream become a nightmare)

Sesshomaru was fighting demons when he heard somebody screamed miles away. Suddenly, he know the owner of that voice. "Inuyasha?" he thought. "Help! Sesshomaru!" "Inuyasha!" Sesshomaru yelled and start following Inuyasha's voice. When he got in the middle of the forest, he came up face-to-face with a troll demon with big red eyes and sharp teeth. He was holding Inuyasha with his huge sharp-clawed hand.

"Let my brother go!" Sesshomaru yelled. "You have to put down your weapon first, dog demon. Or he'll die." the troll said in a growling voice. The troll demon squeeze Inuyasha tight. "Help me, Onii-san!" Inuyasha cried. "I won't surrender unless you let my little brother go." Sesshomaru said coldly. "You have 10 seconds to think. I won't let him go unless you bring down the weapon you were holding." the troll said.

Sesshomaru don't know what to do. He should give up or his brother's life. "Time's out, dog demon!" the troll yelled. "No! Just let him go! I'll do anything!" Sesshomaru begged. "There's nothing you can do now! Now. Die, half-demon!" the troll demon said and squeezed Inuyasha very, very tight until he lost his breath. "Inuyasha!" Sesshomaru cried as tears flow freely in his eyes. The troll demon laughed as he let Inuyasha's lifeless body go.

Sesshomaru ran over and hold Inuyasha in his arms. "Inuyasha. I'm sorry. I promised to protect you, but I fail. Forgive me, little brother." Sesshomaru cried as he rocked Inuyasha back and forth as he stick his forehead on Inuyasha's forehead. "Your little brother's death really touched you, dog demon." the troll demon laughed. Sesshomaru looked at the demon with his teary and sad but very cold eyes. "Now. It's your turn to die." the demon said and slashed Sesshomaru with his sharp claws.

End of Flashback

Sesshomaru gasped and got up. He's so scared that he could hardly breath. His nightmare made him lack of sleep. He could hardly think what will happened to Inuyasha again like the time when they face Uryomaru. He tucked his knees together and cupped his head with his hands. He's so afraid that he might lose his only brother.

The next morning, Inuyasha was having breakfast with his friends, Rin and Jaken when Sesshomaru came down, wearing his boa, kimono and armour again. Inuyasha noticed that Sesshomaru has a pale and depressed face. "Hey. What's wrong?" Inuyasha asked. "Nothing. I'm a little bit restless." Sesshomaru answered. "It seems that you don't have enough sleep last night." Rin said. "I'm fine, Rin." Sesshomaru said. "Okay. Just sit down and eat with us." Sango said. "Thanks. I need to be alone for awhile." Sesshomaru said and walk outside.
