Alone.
It was a feeling I knew all too well. An old friend I'd thought I'd lost when I met Kagome and the others.
Honestly, I can't say I lost anything; no instead it was like I was back at the beginning.
Kagome had left right after the fall of Naraku. She had found out her grandfather had fallen ill. Family mattered more than staying with me. I'd even told her so, even if I didn't feel that way.
A few years had passed since then. Miroku and Songo had a family, Shippou with them.
Maybe alone wasn't the right word, I was waiting for something, the next big adventure maybe. There were no more "brotherly fights" since Sesshomaru and I had made peace.
I sighed leaning back in the hot spring I was currently occupying. I let my eyes fall shut, in hopes of clearing my mind.
"May I join you." I simply nodded at the statement, because this person didn't ask anything. Somehow I knew Sesshomaru would show up.
Brotherly instincts.
I felt the water ripple as he slipped in.
"What brings you to this part of the East?" I whispered, not wanting to break the peace.
"You." Well that was blunt. I cracked an eye open, ready to glare.
"I have a request."
I opened both eyes and sat up. He had my full attention now, Sesshomaru asking for something?
"What is it?" I asked curiously.
"Will you accompany me to Hell?"
"Why?"
Sesshomaru smirked, "Suspicious of your dear older brother?"
"Always."
"It about time for me to go retrieve my arm-"
I nodded, it's kind of hard to be intimidating all the time when you're waving around a stump.
"-and I need to visit my mother."
That doesn't make sense.
"Can I ask why?"
"No. Just say you will accompany me." Sesshomaru watched me as I thought it over.
He didn't want me to know why he needed to visit his mother. I can live with that. If I said 'no' to this what would I do? Nothing. So going to Hell would at least give me something to do, and I wouldn't be alone.
I looked up, locking gazes with my brother.
"Yes."
"Good."
