My idea of Shessomeru's feelings towards Inuyasha- I believe he really did care about his brother in the end. I love Shessomeru because of his attitude, his supreme awesomeness, and the way he cares about Rin (makes me go awwwww... inside). I kinda had this thing going of Inuyasha and Sessomeru teaming up when they all get attacked, and Sessomeru diving in front of Inuyasha to take a hit that would've killed him. So here's my Shessomeru/Inuyasha fic:
Brother
You were the one I hated. The one Father loved more, even though I was the oldest, the strongest, and the pure demon. You got lucky with the stronger sword, and though I am far stronger, you beat me several times. Life liked you and hated me. And I despised you for it.
Logic suggested that it wasn't your fault, all that happened. It wasn't your fault that Father dumped Mother and me for your mother, and you were the result. It wasn't your fault that I became strong to win Father's approval, and he preferred the weakling pup over the powerful dog. But lies are more preferable than the truth, and so I set my goal on killing you. And yet, in the many times where I could have destroyed you, I held back, let you defeat me instead. In the end, I was still your family, still your brother.
But you, the one mocked by humans and demons, easily recognized my hatred, and turned it right back at me. We parried blades many times, every time we met you would challenge me. So when you died, I told myself good riddance, with you dead I was no longer weak, unable to kill a half-grown half breed. But something deep inside of me broke that day.
And then you were back, you had not died, but slept. You formed alliances with humans and gained strength. We fought many battles and I never won. But you couldn't see that every time when I could've killed you, I didn't. You couldn't see that every time we clashed swords, you gained a new power. You were blind to the fact that I didn't hate you anymore. That I didn't know where to start. That I needed help being a brother.
So that is why when I dived in front of you, I had no regrets. I saw a flash of yellow light, and my body crumpled. I hoped I had gotten my message across, that I wanted to be your older brother the whole time.
And when I opened my eyes, surprised that I could still see, and saw Ten-siega in your hands, I understood. You needed help being a brother, too.
So that's that! I originally didn't like this but when I re-read it I found that I really liked it! So I posted it. Please review!
