While wandering through the forest alone Sesshoumaru hears a scream that would make a cat's fur stand on end. (Good thing Sesshomaru is a dog demon or his beautiful silver hair would look a little ridiculous.) Now normally Sesshomaru would have ignored the scream, but it amazingly sounded like young Rin. On hearing this he sprints in the direction of the voice came, but no Rin, only a demon woman in apparent pain, she seemed no older than then his idiotic have brother.
Sesshoumaru was quite a distance away, and upon seeing that Rin didn't make the scream he lifts his right leg as if to take a step away, but lowers it, for the women was speaking. (It was more like shouting, but oh well.)
" I can't see you, but I know your there," she said as she gasped for breath. "Please help me. I'm desperate. I can't take this pain any more. Please just drag me about six yards south of here."
'She's no ordinary half-demon is she. If she could sense me from that far away, she must be better than my nitwit of a brother Inuyasha. Well perhaps not much better, since she is weak enough to ask for help from anyone who happened upon her. Stupid girl.
" If you help me I'll tell you were that girl with the orange checkered kimono and that fowl green demon who was with her are."
Suddenly Sesshoumaru was no longer standing beside a tree quite some distance away, but in front of the agony ridden girl, holding her throat as if to choke her.
"You will tell me where the girl is and perhaps I won't kill you," said Sesshoumaru as he squeezed her throat to emphasize his authority.
"Go ahead. (Gasp) It would be a most welcome guest, compared to this torture going on inside of me."
"So you would welcome death, just to be rid of your pain?"
"He would be a most welcome guest."
"Just as I suspected. You are a weakling. You don't even deserve to die by my hand," said Sesshoumaru as he let go of the girl in disgust, and turned to leave.
"Well, aren't you full of yourself," said the women more to herself than to Sesshoumaru.
"What did you say," asked the silver haired demon turning once more to the girl with a purple kimono on, and a silver silk ribbon in her dark brown hair.
"I was just saying that you were full of yourself," said the women in-between gasps.
"You really do want to die don't you," asked Sesshoumaru with a raised eyebrow.
"I think we established that already."
"Tell me where they are you filthy half-demon and I shall make your death a swift and painless one."
Before answering the girl went through a spasm that made her weaker than before, but she didn't let Sesshoumaru see it. "Well, I see we've resorted to name calling."
"You would be wise to tell me where they are girl, before I lose my patience," said Sesshoumaru as he leaned down and grabbed the girl's throat once more and tightened his grip, then loosening it so that she could speak.
"I'd say that you lost your patience long ago."
Tightening his grip once more Sesshoumaru replied, "I shall count to three and you will tell me where the girl is and I will leave you here."
"What a gracious offer," said the girl, then added, "but you shall never find her."
Sesshoumaru then proceeded to strangle her once again. Other than gritting her teeth against the pain the girl, showed no otherwise emotion. After the girl started to turn purple Sesshoumaru loosened his grip once again on the girl, so that she could both breath and talk.
When the girl regained her train of thoughts she then said, "This wood is very thick, and filled with dangerous and powerful demons. I don't think that even you with all your swiftness can comb through it fast enough to save in time."
By this time a smirk had appeared upon her face, revealing her teeth, which consisted of all white teeth, except for two fangs on either side of her jaw that were purple. While still holding her neck, Sesshoumaru pulled the girl up to his height, to study her further. When this occurred the girl's smirk quickly vanished and a grimace soon replaced it. Though he could clearly tell she was a demon, he could not distinguish the type of demon she was.
A flicker of interest and confusion blew across Sesshoumaru's cold ember eyes for a brief moment, then returned to their former state of frigidness and he threw to the ground once more.
In that short time the girl managed to see the look and distinguish the emotions that were caught behind those glassy barriers, thus making her reply, " Oh, so the big bad demon doesn't know what I am either? Well, in any case, it's nice to see that you have more than one emotion in your repertoire. So I suppose," she said as she sighed "that I should tell you were the girl is. The girl with the orange checkered kimono is," and that's as far as she got, for without warning, her hand shot up, and caught a hold of Sesshoumaru's wrist under his shockingly white refinery, and dug her nails in to his skin. You see, while they had been talking, the pain that had resided in her body gradually grew worse.
Not knowing this, the surprised Sesshoumaru grabbed the girl's wrist and dug his extremely long fingernails into it. A pool of their combined blood soon started to congeal on the forest floor next to the girl's body, whose purple kimono started to soak some of it up. When her pain had subsided, the girl let go of Sesshoumaru's wrist and looked at her blood soaked self.
It was then that Sesshoumaru realized that the girl was actually dying from pain, and let go of her wrist, for the she was one of a hand full of people that ever made his blood flow freely.
"Er, sorry 'bout that," said the girl sheepishly. "The girl your looking for is heading North-East toward the lake," and with that said, she went into a terrible seizure, that caused her to passout as soon as it was over.
Sesshoumaru watched the girl struggle against the pain that threatened to kill her, until she lost consciousness, and then made his way into the wood to look for Rin at the lake.
