I can feel the warmth of the sunlight faintly in the room, I open my eyes but as always I can't see anything. I feel frustration filling my mind, I want to see. I blink a few times to try and regain my senses, the moment that I do, the person that I love comes to mind. I use my hands and feel the space beside me, It's empty. I prop myself up and my mind goes blank.

"Inuyasha?" I call out.

I feel the futon around me, but I don't feel anything except for the cool silk fabric. The room is only so big, I call his name again, no response. Although I don't know where he is, I don't feel his presence at all in the room as I take a moment to listen to any breathing or movements. I get up and my breath slightly hitches, I find the bell bracelet that I took off and tie it back onto my wrist. Changing into my kimono isn't my main priority right now, Inuyasha is. I get up and I find the wooden walls of the hut, I then follow it until I find the door. I open it up and I can feel the warm Spring sunlight hit my face and hands, the air is still slightly chilly though. I carefully walk down the steps and I begin to wonder around the gravel filled ground.

"Inuyasha? Where are you?!" I call out into the open nature.

I continue to walk around, I head towards the big hut, or at least I think I am because I didn't think where I was going when I started walking. I can hear people talking in the far distance, the area where our hut is is far from the heart of the village. I continue to walk around and calling out to Inuyasha, after a few minutes of walking I stop. I realize that by walking around won't get me anywhere or to Inuyasha if he's not here, I want to see, oh how I wish that I can see. I'm starting to panic a little, what if something happened to Inuyasha? What if he never woke up? Did the others came in while I was deep asleep and took him away when they realized that he didn't wake up? Why am I thinking of that? I know Inuyasha is strong enough to pull through this, but I can't help but think that something might have happened. I close my eyes and I lower my head, I let out a big sigh. I feel tears slowly forming,I have to find Sango and Miroku. I don't know where I should go... I feel completely lost right now. I miss Inuyasha's hand holding mine and guiding me, I miss the warmth of his skin. I take a step forward and then another, the day haven't even started and my heart is already in pain and confusion, clouded in sadness and melancholy. I suddenly hear something out of the blue in the far distance, I stop and turn my head to the side so my left ear faces the back. I furrow my brows and focused, it sounds like....chimes? My eyebrows lifts up as I try to listen to it more. The sound seems to be coming closer and closer, it's clear at this point, bell chimes. I turn my body completely around and my eyes begin to wonder frantically to try and pinpoint where it's coming from, could it be?

"Inuyasha?!" I shout out again in desperation.

I then hear the sound of the bell chime coming closer and footsteps, I put my arms out as I try to touch something in front of me hoping it to be him.

"_____________!" A voice calls out.

My eyes widen as I recognize the voice that registered after a few seconds.

"Inuyasha! Where are you!?" I call out again.

My hands are out in front of me as I try to find the person that I long for so much, I walk towards the sound of the bell as it chimes nonstop from movements. No sooner, I feel big warm hands taking hold of mine in theirs. I stop in my tracks and I then feel my body falling against someone's broad chest, warmth surrounds me and the silk fabrics of clothing touches my skin. I hold my breath as I feel their hands letting go of me after pulling me into them and holds me to them, I can feel thick hair brushing against my face. The chimes of the bell is right above me.

"Thank goodness you stopped, I was calling to you in the distance. You were about to walk into a tree." His deep blunt voice says.

I let go of the breath that I held, I can feel my heart dropping as relief wash over me. Tears starts to come out of my eyes, I feel my legs give way and I descend towards the ground without knowing. As I fall, strong arms holds me and descend with me as I touch the ground. I bury my head against his chest as he holds me close to him, I grab hold of his silk kimono in the palm of my functioning hand.
