5/8/05Disclaimer: To my misfortune I do not own any of the Inuyasha characters. I will someday but for now…none of the above belong. When with Rumiko see that I deserve her characters and should give them to me with no questions…all well. Please enjoy this piece.
Sesshomaru. The great full fledged demon that had shot fear to anyone that had the pleasure of seeing his freezing emotionless stare. One who ruled all of the western lands and controlled a valor army with victories surpassing that of any human soldiers.
Sesshomaru. A demon with expectations to high for any man or woman to meet. It was evident that no other being could please him so. Make him smile other than for a triumph of a trivial battle he wasn't interested in the first place. Even the demon empire cowered before his wrath and anger he rarely exposed in the line of arguments.
Sesshomaru. One of Inuyasha's greatest adversary, one of his most difficult challenges. Inuyasha's only brother. His only living family. Half brother or not, the only one to share the same blood. That ran so proudly and boldly through both of them. Weather they would admit it or keep it unsaid.
Sesshomaru. The last one anyone would have guessed he'd, feel for someone other than…himself. Sure there was Jaken, and he had revived him on more than one occasion. But soon Jaken would get older and watch as his lord had not changed a bit since he met him. The toad would die with loyalties beyond any companion Sesshomaru ever came across. But none of that mattered. He'd trade it all for the life of this…love.
Jaken, Inuyasha, Naraku, even his own father, he would rather swallow his pride and lose miserably to them. At the tip of their sword his throat would lie. All these years, covering his feelings for her, as mere ownership of her. This girl had breached his walls overcome his battle fields and seen him. The naked Sesshomaru. And the smiles and laughter was what made him sane. Inside he knew that without Tenseiga and Rin, he might have been driven mad not having the other fang. And watching Inuyasha use it as just a weapon of choice. But Sesshomaru saw the sword for so much more.
Sesshomaru. Demon lord across Japan. Accustomed to having all in his path down on their knees and praise him. Gaze at his exceptional beauty and marvel at the strength only in his glowing fingertips. But this time he had to bow to her. She had taken all of this, and with her innocence addressed him as "Father"
Strange it was but none the less he dismissed it as childish behavior she would grow out of…eventually.
Sesshomaru. His eyes widened as he felt the last beat of her heart. She was reaching for him. Blood was painted all over both kimono's. He took her cold shaking hand, held it till she closed her eyes. Rin gave him one last smile, and whispered his name.
That repulsive disgusting laugh came to his pointed ears. Naraku. That very voice made Sesshomaru fueled with an anger that burn for no other. This man this Hanyou had destroyed an innocent life. He had literally hunted her down in hopes it would bring some emotion to his face. But as always Sesshomaru remained indifferent. Not even his lips curved, his eyes were straight forward and gave off the appearance as though he could have cared less.
"Sesshomaru…your not fooling anyone. I know behind your indifferent stare your screaming inside. For that mortal no less? Who would have thought you would feel so-"
"Silence! Don't you articulate another word. My debt is repaid. I gave her another life, and now that's she's dead, I no longer have to…." He trailed off. Just looking at her body made him cry in a fear he never knew laid in his soul. It took him a while to breathe again. Remembering that this was not a simple as it was before, he could not revive her again. It was possible but with that would come her memories of Naraku. How he'd abused her as though she were an object a part of his little sick and demented game. He would have to let her die this time. Perhaps in the next life he'd see her again.
Across the battle filed was Inuyasha's comrades. Just as lifeless and cold as Rin was. Unlike Sesshomaru, Inuyasha was expressing his emotions that were building up inside. But the one he was holding….rocking back and forth was that girl…Kagome. His uncontrolled sobs mixed with his continuous growls. But by now Naraku had despaired into the darkness leaving Inuyasha and his brother to mourn.
(A/N: Okay now...for the next chapter heh I dont know when I'll have it ;;)
