My Tale
By: Sesshomaru
I watch Rin run around such a carefree child. Every time I look at her my memories come flooding back. I remember him running around so when Rin does the same thing how can I not? My brother, Inuyasha.
Many years ago I was his guardian; he was a hanyou, not quite that easy. I can still hear his voice "Will you be with me forever? Promise?" I took him in my arms this young child about five years old. I stroked his hair and whispered "Forever I promise. . ." I don't know why I have kept this promise after all these years why should I care, I suppose because he is my brother. It was my job to defend him as well. Every time he would leave I would usually have to go find him, he was always a bloody pulp! I would use my whip of light and the bullies and bystanders would disperse! Sometimes when I appeared, Inuyasha began to flex his claws, I suppose to show me he was quite tough. Now that I am thinking about it, that always made me smile. I haven't smiled in a long time.
Rin has truly changed me. She had awakened me, my sleeping heart. Inuyasha, I haven't felt anything except hatred toward you. Now I realize our past, we were close. All these years denying myself feelings, practicing to be stoic always. I have seen you learn to fight and master the Tetsusaiga. I now have a new feeling, I am proud of you! Why, I have seen you grow from a weak bloody pulp, to a fighter, a defender almost worthy of myself. Still, I am with you, for I always know where you are, and make sure you don't screw it up! I will continue to sharpen your sloppy fighting skill, until you will always be able to defeat me.
Will you kill me Inuyasha? It seems I could hurt with you and love with you. Yet, the world seems to always get in out way. Please do not misunderstand; I know I am to blame, for everything. I am the one that started our war, yet I refused to forgive you for anything even if it's something you couldn't help. Now it no longer matters what I do it's too late. We will never be brothers, I realized so much, but all of it too late. So chose Inuyasha will you kill me or not? If you were about to kill me and I was to tell you all this, I already know what you would think "Sesshomaru you bastard, begging for your life? However you know I am far too proud to do that.
Ah Inuyasha, you're close, I smell you . . . you're coming perhaps I shouldn't disappoint you. I see you now as I walk slowing approaching you. Then I am about to speak and loose control "Little brother, Inuyasha." my voice so soft so loving, why? I see it in your eyes, swimming in confusion. I slightly smile "Little brother." my voice so soft so loving. . .
