This is my first fic. I hope you like it. Let me now if there is anything I can do to improve it.
Disclaimer: I do not own the Inuyasha characters. I do own the story plot though, and I do own a delicious recipe for waffles yum!
Chapter one
CRASH! I hurled my new cell phone into the wall, and watched it shatter. This is the fifth time, the fifth failed attempt to find out what happened to her. I am so close to my breaking point it's not even funny. My blood boiled as I felt my eyes turn red, and my fangs lengthen. I dug my claws into my palms in order to regain some kind of control.
"Sesshomaru! This cannot continue. We need to find out what happened to her. Our mate disappeared and we have yet to find out what happened. This cannot stand!" spoke my inner demon.
Shut up youkai, don't you think I know that we have been looking for her since the day we realized she had disappeared!
If you had swallowed your pride, and recognized her as our mate years ago this wouldn't have happened! To that I had nothing to say, for I knew that it was true ,it was my fault that my mate was not here now.
It all started during the feudal era I was the prince of the western lands. A strong kingdom ruled by dog demons for generations. My father had returned from war successful yet again, however he arrived with two humans bound at the wrist. He called my pathetic excuse for hanyou of a half brother, and I, to his study that night.
Years ago in the feudal era
"Boys as you know a demon may acquire many valuables through out their lives, but nothing is as important to a demon as their mate is. Which is what Izayoi is to me."I resisted the urge to growl at the mention of my father's human mate.
"Both of you are of the age to search for mates of your own, but you will not succeed in finding your mate if you do not learn compassion."
"Hah! Your gonna try to teach the ice prince compassion, good luck with that."
"Shut up half breed! I have no need for such a weak human emotion."
"Enough! Boys stop your bickering this instant. I have rescued two girls, who were taken as prisoners of war by the enemy. They are to be your new personal slaves. They are to do as you say, but they are not to be your concubines."
"Father this is ridiculous. No human slave could do as good a job as demon servant. I refuse to have to put up with the stupidity of more than one human in this castle!"
"Sesshomaru enough! I know of your aversion to humans, but do not utter ill words against my mate, or so help I will strip you of you inheritance, and give you a beating you'll never forget!. Do you understand me boy?"…..
"Yes, sir."
"The girls will brought to your chambers and will stay in a small room connected to yours. You are to explain to them their duties, and they are under your care from now on, so what ever happens to them is on you now go."
The girl they brought to me was no older than 13 or so, while my brother received the human that was at least 15. In human years Inuyasha and I were over 100 years old, but in demon years I was 17, and he was 15. The girl was mute, but I learned her name was rin from the other human she came with.
Over the next 5 years I went from being hostile to her, to her being the only person I was willing to stand. She became my only friend you could say.
Rin pov
"Lord Sesshomaru… lord Sesshomaru… LORD SESSHOMARU!" He groaned as he slowly opened his eyes to look at me. I greeted him with a smile, Lord Sesshomaru its time to get up you have much to do today.
"What do I have to do today that is important that I can't sleep in for five more minutes."
"Well you have a meeting with the other Lords of the land's son, and your mother is coming to visit today because she wants you to meet a candidate for your future mate." If there is one thing I have learned about lord Sesshomaru is that he is not a morning person.
Kagome, and I were kidnapped by cat demon soldiers, but we were saved by the dog general lord Inutaisho before any real harm could come to us. Our families along with our village had been slaughtered. Kagome and I met when we were both prisoners, and we recognized each other as members of the same village. Our village was special because it was a safe haven for both demons and humans, and any half demons that may have been born there. When I woke up in the same prison cell as Kagome I had no memories of who my family was or my life at the village, so the loss didn't hit me as hard as it did Kagome. We were forever in lord Inutaisho's debt for saving us, and as payment we served his sons. I have loved working for lord Sesshomaru, even if we have had our ups and down in the beginning. He is a lot more tolerable of me now, I'm pretty sure that I'm the only human that he can stand. We have an understanding, that I hope will last. I have yet to remember anything of my former village life
"Here you are lord Sesshomaru I made your favorite breakfast." I said as I presented the tray of food to him.
"And I ran your bath and set out your clothes for the day."
"hm" he said in response. I watched as he took the plate and began to eat. When he was done I took his plate and he went towards his bath.
During his meeting I had to find something to do to occupy my self, because Kagome was tending to Inuyasha. I went to the garden and looked around I always loved being outside.
Seshomaru Pov
After the meeting I went to wait for mother. She is adamant about me finding my mate, and not just any mate and demon mate. She's been bringing over candidates every time she comes to visit me. None of them so far have been worth my time.
"Sesshomaru! My dearest son how are you? I trust you have been well. I have some one I want you to meet, and I think you are going to like her. Try to make this one work huh sweetie. She said the last part as a whisper.
"Mother it has nothing to do with me if she is not worthy to be my mate."
"Oh do lighten up my son you might like this one." "oh I doubt that" I thought to myself. We entered the hall, where we were greeted by a dog demoness. She had long white hair that was wrapped in a bun on top of her head, and she wore an extravagant kimono. She was beautiful, but it was nothing out of the ordinary for a demoness. She was about my height, and wore a cheesy overly happy smile on her face.
"Oh! lord Sesshomaru I've heard so much about you."
"Sesshomaru this is Kagura, and Kagura this is my son the prince of the western lands."
"Hello lady Kagura, it's a pleasure to meet you."
"Why don't you two go for a walk in the garden together." I resisted the urge to growl at that. "That sounds like so much fun! Lets go your highness."
Rin POV
I was sitting in the garden when I heard voices coming towards me. It was more like one voice, that kept talkinig this rapid annoying way. I turned and saw Sesshomaru come into the garden with a white haired dog demoness on his arm. She didn't have a moon on her head , but the pink stripes on here cheeks were curved like the wind. She was talking his ear so rapidly, and constantly that it made me wonder how she could even keep breathing. Lord Sesshomaru looked relieved to see me sitting there, and I couldn't help it when the fact that I had a little crush on him. I wasn't in love because I knew that demons had destined mates.
I was taken out of my thoughts by an annoying voice.
"Uh, excuse me… little peasant why don't you get out of our way and go do something, like scrub the floors". I kept silent and turned to Sesshomaru my orders only come from him. I watched as Sesshomaru dropped his arm from her and turned to look at her, with a lethal look on his face.
"Do not come into my home and start making demands of my servants Kagura. I do believe that our walk is over, why don't you go talk with my mother, or something."
"But…but you cant be serious! She's just a servant."
"That's where your wrong she is not just a servant she is my servant. Now go!" Kagura truly looked afraid for her life and quickly scurried off. I looked to my lord as the scowl left his face and it returned to its usual stoicness.
"Rin what are doing out here?"
"Well I finished my work, and I decided to wait for you here."
"hm" he said.
"I'm sorry if I ruined your date lord Sesshomaru." "Its quite alright I wasn't to fond of her anyway." I giggle at that, and he didn't laugh, but I saw the humor in his eyes.
Back to present day
Sess POV
Things between us were good in the beginning you could say. We were close, as close as I would allow us to become. It wasn't until later on that things started t o spiral out if control. And it was my fault.
