What is the Meaning of Love
I don't own any of the characters of InuYasha.
Hope you enjoy I decided to try and write a story that has gone through my mind and won't go away. This is my first story so sorry if I get anything wrong comments will be appreciated, but please keep the flames to a minimal.
"Sesshomaru Speaking" "Sesshomaru's Beast Speaking"-Hope that helps who is speaking at the time
The Final Battle is still a little ways away. InuYasha and his group are still searching for any traces of Naraku. All the while Sesshomaru is patrolling his lands keeping an eye out for the despicable half-wit intent on ending his life with his own hands (or should I say his poisonous claws).
Chapter One
Sesshomaru had just dispatched a weak pathetic demon intent on harming his pack. Demons should know their place and keep away or they will die by his claws. He turned to find Rin smiling up at him happy that he was there.
"Lord Sesshomaru, your back" Rin cheerily said.
Jaken had then decided to intervene since he was getting annoyed with the little girl. "Be quiet girl and be thankful Lord Sesshomaru decided to save your pitiful life" Jaken sneered. Before he could say anything else he was flattened against a tree, how he got there he didn't remember getting hit or anything.
He looked up and saw his lord glaring at him and set about apologizing to his lord.
"I'm sorry Lord Sesshomaru, please forgive this lowly servant" pleaded Jaken.
"Silent, this Sesshomaru will not repeat himself" Sesshomaru told him, wishing the servant will listen to him for once.
Jaken looked at him frightened by what would happen if he opened his but he thought better and kept his mouth shut not wanted to be on the other end of his lords wrath.
Rin skipped over to Sesshomaru and asked, "When we will be leaving my lord".
He thought for a moment thinking where they will be heading and decided that it will be better to stay there for the night and head out in the morning.
"We will stay here until morning, Jaken help set up camp. And make sure to search for food for Rin." Sesshomaru said without looking over at him to see if he did what he asked. He walked away intent on searching the area for threats, and possibly killing a few demons to help saté his blood lust.
The night was peaceful expect for a few demons wandering in looking for a snack, but they never got far for Lord Sesshomaru killed them before they even set foot in the camp.
"What is the Great Sesshomaru in this part of the forest?" A demon snarled.
"This Sesshomaru will warn you now leave or you will be killed for crossing this ones path" Sesshomaru calmly told the lowly demon.
"Why should I leave when I smell a human that smells delicious and I am hungry" Sneered the demon.
Sesshomaru had enough of the lowly demon, he whipped his hand and let his whip out and sliced the demon in half. So much for having a quiet night.
Morning came and he woke Jaken telling him to saddle An-Uh and get Rin ready for they will be leaving in a few minutes.
"Good morning, my lord" Rin softly said, rubbing the sleep from her eyes. Getting up and helped pack whatever was still left out.
They started walking through the forest at a pace that was normal for Sesshomaru, and while they walked Rin was picking flowers along the way.
That was when my beast stirred and started to pester me.
"We must find mate, it is almost mating season."
"Stop pestering me about this it is getting rather annoying"
"But we must find mate, or we'll end up with some random wench"
"You're right, but I do not want or need a mate. Go away and stop annoying this Sesshomaru, it is unbecoming of you."
"Look who's talking, remember I am you"
"Don't push it, you're lucky I don't put you on a leash for annoying this Sesshomaru to no end. Leave me alone, I will never get a mate, I will not be dragged down into such a lowly position"
"Fine, I will leave you be for now. I won't stop hounding you until you give in"
He went back to sleep, my beast is infuriating and I wish he would stop talking for eternity. I continued walking thinking about what my beast had told me. He was right I would rather mate a woman worth my time, I would never let my heat make me choose a random female that will never be worth his time he would rather kill the female then let her mate with him.
He came out of his thoughts and noticed that they were now within his lands, and it would take a day or two to arrive at his domain.
"Jaken go on ahead and tell the staff of our return, so that they can have all the necessary accommodations set up for when we arrive." Sesshomaru coldly stated.
Jaken nodded his and replied, "Yes milord, I will get right to it."
Jaken got up and got An-Un ready and they took off so they can get to his masters home in time or he would face his lords wrath.
"Come Rin we must travel further if we want to get to the castle in the right amount of time" Stated Sesshomaru.
Rin grinned and said, "Alright my lord."
I watched as she skipped around collecting more flowers, it makes me wonder why she even follows me at all, what did she even see in me, I am ruthless killer. But she seems not mind that aspect at all. She accepts how I am, and doesn't question it.
(Time Skip to them arriving and being at the castle for a few days)
He had a meeting today with the council, and he wondered what they could want. But he had a feeling that it was not going to be good at all.
He arrived and sat in his appointed seat, and watched as the council members arrived and sat as well.
"What did you want to speak to this Sesshomaru about," He asked his eyes narrowing on the council members.
"We have come to tell you that it is time for you to find a mate, it is time you sired the next heir for the west Lord Sesshomaru," Replied Taki a bird demon.
"You know very well that this Sesshomaru does not want a mate, and even I do have to get one no one interests this Sesshomaru and I will only have the best." Sesshomaru coldly stated.
"We know this very well Sesshomaru but we have come to tell you that its time for to find one." Daisuke said.
"This Sesshomaru will find a mate when I know it is the right time and I know she is the one for me, but not because you tell me to, is that clear," Sesshomaru snarled.
The council members flinched when Sesshomaru stated that. "Yes, we understand, we are sorry to cross you," Taki said.
I left before anymore could be said, I knew this was coming but I will avoid for as long as I can. Maybe it was time to search out his pathetic excuse for a half-brother and join them to defeat Naraku so he can get on with his life.
Sorry to leave it here but I didn't want it to get to far in this chapter, I want to save everything for the later chapters.
Please comment and tell me what you think/keep flames to a minimal.
I am redoing the other chapters as well, but it will take time for I am in college and I have a busy schedule, and I will update when I can.
