A.N: this fic is about our cutest couple Rin and Sesshy. Don't worry Rin is legal age. It starts out kinda sad but don't worry, it will get better.

Blood. So much blood. It coated the ground on which she lay, staining the once green grass that pure vermillion hue. It was splattered everywhere revealing to me the obvious fight that she must have unleashed upon her assailants.

She had been waiting for me. Waiting for me to save her, and I had failed her. Failed my beautiful Rin. She had prolonged her pain, hoping and believing that I would be there to save her. I always had been in the past. She had every right to believe that I would be there. Only this time I wasn't.

My beautiful Rin. Her body lay in tatters. Once graceful limbs were now mutilated beyond belief, sprawled in almost unnatural positions. Once delicate throat, slashed open, blood dripping from the wound into her ebony locks.

I fell to the ground beside her, abandoning all remnants of my once beloved pride. With a sob of anguish I pulled her lifeless form into my arms, burying my nose in her hair, drinking in her scent. All I could smell was her blood. Proof that she was never coming back to me.

I could feel a distinct burning igniting in the back of my eyes. A feeling that with time had become more end more frequent. My body began to tremble with my suppressed feelings of desolation. Finally I couldn't take it anymore, and I gave in. tears of sorrow and dejection flowed profusely down my cheeks and throat, only to be soaked up by the collar of my haori.

"N..no, you…can't leave me. I love you. DO YOU HERE ME? I love you." I nearly whispered the last words my voice cracking with desperation. She was gone.

She had been my little ray of sunlight. Ever since the day that I brought her back and through her own choice she decided to stay, she had brightened up my normally cold and lonely life. Of course I never let her see that. I was afraid that I would grow to fond of her and then she would leave me for the human life that had been stolen from her.

As much as I wanted her to be happy, I had never wanted her to leave me. I would have let her go if that's what she wanted, but I would have fought to keep her with me always. She was my angel, my little princess, and I always treated her as such. For every trip back to my castle that we took, I would make sure that the servants waited on her hand and foot, getting her anything that she could want.

Of course she loved it, but she made it a point anyways to tell me every night that she didn't need any of it. Whether she needed it or it never once stopped me from pampering her anyways. Anything to make her happy, anything to make her smile.

When she began to grow older, I started to notice her beauty. A beauty that seemed to develop more and more each day. She truly was an angel. My goddess of light.

Over the years I began to feel very strangely when she was around, though I never once acted on it. The feeling was irritating and yet wonderful at the same time. A strange constricting around my heart that seemed to be influenced by her moods. Constricting tighter and tighter in joy when she was happy and in sorrow when she was sad.

Of course it wasn't until I heard my baka younger brother confess his love to the blushing reincarnated miko that I realized what my feelings meant. I had fallen in love with my Rin. However it also wasn't until an hour ago that she finally showed me that she felt the same.

One lingering kiss and words of her love for me lingering in the air, seconds before we were attacked.

We had been separated almost instantly, she running for cover and myself fighting to protect my love. Our enemy would have been rather week alone, but there were at least a hundred of them. Strength in numbers and all that I suppose.

I had been doing rather well, their numbers steadily depleting with every swing of my sword. And then I heard her scream. I had tried desperately to reach her, but those monsters must have sensed my desperation for at once they all lunged at me. I had barely been able to dodge the unending rein of attacks let alone manage to kill them all.

By the time they were all dead or had retreated, Rin's desperate screaming had ceased. With that I was gone; racing towards her scent praying to whatever gods existed that I wouldn't be too late.

But her I am. I couldn't reach her in time. Seeing her battered form laying on the ground, I flew into a rage, slaughtering every last one of the demons, not allowing a single one to live, even when they surrendered and begged for mercy.

When I finally thought that I had gained some semblance of approval and happiness, it was snatched brutally away from me

My Rin was gone…
