Author's Note: WARNING if you haven't read Mirrored, you will be lost! In this fanfic Sesshomaru's mother is a human, so if you want to figure out why, go read Mirrored! I had the inspiration to write this when I was thinking about back-story plot for Mirrored, so please enjoy! Oh, and if you don't like tragedies, I suggest not reading this. Ok, enjoy chapter 1 and please review!
Disclaimer: I do not own anything related to or affiliated with Inuyasha, however this particular story is M-I-N-E! :)
Dearest Beloved
The moon shone as red as the remnants of the battleground that night. One dog stood alone, covered in blood and the tears of betrayal as he held a stranger's sword that glowed with all the hatred its owner felt for the battle-weary warrior. The dog silently walked away from the sickening scene, not once turning back. He walked on and on for hours until he reached a lifeless hut that held the smell of a woman that had long since left him behind. Her lingering presence brought more tears to the once proud warrior's eyes, but now his pride only left a bitter taste that he could not dispel. An object in the corner of the room caught his eye, and he walked over to the small decaying table on which it lay. It was a simple bound book; nothing special or regal like all the books on war and history the dog had ever read, just a simple book that was written in her hand, and that alone was enough to treasure its words above all else. Careful not to tear the fragile thing, the dog turned to the first page where these lone words were written:
Dearest Beloved…
Other Author Note: Don't worry, not all the chaps will be this short. I never thought I would write a tragedy, cause I generally don't like sad things (yes, that includes Nicholas Sparks) and I'll probably cry while writing half of this, so please support me and my tears!
