"Why?" the bloody, broken miko choked out" we trusted you, you bustard."
His reply sent cold shivers down her spine. "Naraku has promised to make me a full demon faster than the jewel ever would," he proudly boasted "he also said that if I killed you I could use your soul to fully bring back Kikyo!"
the joy in his voice when he said this was the last straw, gently placing the battered body of her adopted kit on the ground, the true shikon miko,Kagome Higurashi rises to face the one who had always protected her, to make Him pay.
"fine" she spits out at him, "fine! If you want my soul come and get it, but I'm not going down without a fight."
"I thought you would be happy for me", he calmly states, as he starts to raze his legendary sword over his head "I thought you would understand that I do this out of love"
"Love! Ha, I thought that love was the reason you always protected me, but apparently I was wrong!"
"I can see that you are determined to make me the bad guy here, so I think that its time to end this....WINDSCAR!!" he shouts and brings his sword down with earth shattering force.
As the jagged lines of raw power arc towards her a single tear crawls down her face, and she utters one word, just loud enough for him to hear "please..."
********************************************************************************************
Lord Sesshomaru was patrolling his lands with his pack, the dragon demon Ah-Un, his retainer Jaken, the toad demon, and the oddest of them all, at least to him, the small human girl, Rin.
As it just so happened Rin was the subject of Jakens latest bout of groveling, he had lost the girl.
"I-im sorry my lord, I was ambushed, I swear!" said toad was whining at him.
"You fell asleep toad" Sesshomaru growled out.
All Jaken managed to stutter out was a weak "I'm sorry, my lord......" before the mentioned lords boot connected with Jakens face.
Then just as Jaken dissapeard form sight Sesshomaru heard an ear pearcing scream coming from the east.
All any one watching would have seen was a white blur, and maybe have heard a small whisper that sounded oddly like a name"Rin......"
********************************************************************************************
When he arrived on the seen he found Rin crying beside a burnt and blackened body, sobbing, whispering the name of his half brothers bitch.
At the sound of his foot steps she spun around and buried her face in the front of his hikama, still sobbing.
"Go and wait with Ah-Un Rin" he says, shooing her away, but not without gently patting her on the head first.
After she had left he endeavored to find out why his brothers mate...no...Not mate, he could still smell her innocence. The thought surprised him, though he did not show it, he wondered to himself, why is she lying here dead, surrounded by her pack mates' bodies.
The second shock of the day came when tetsaiga started to pulse at his hip, indicating its need to save the girl. "But why should I save the girl when all she has done is get in my way time after time?"
The swords only response was to pulse with more urgency than before, making up his mind for him.
He slowly draws his blade and waits for the servants of death to show themselves to him.
What he saw next was the closest thing to a scare he had had for over a century, the girls spirit was fighting the imps, not just resisting but fighting tooth and nail to stay with the body, her body. I have never heard of anyone, in myth or ledged, being able to fight off the minions of death.
He had to admit, her determination earned a small amount of his respect, enough that he decided that he would help her to win this perilous battle, as he slowly walked towards the specters she turned and looked him dead in the eye and whispered one single word "please..."
