Chapter 1: Questions and Ignorance

"Sesshomaru, have you ever been in love?" asked the young Rin. Sesshomaru looks at Rin and surprisingly answers, "Yes, but it was a long time ago." Rin's face perks up, "Will you tell me about her?" Little did Rin know, but she just asked her Lord to do the impossible but Sesshomaru saw how the girls face lit up with excitement and could smell his half- breed brother, Inuyasha, not too far away, "Yes. Her name was Miyako, it means beautiful night child. She had long deep brown messy waves of hair that she down or in a side braid. She was short for someone her age and always made ridiculous jokes about her height. She was pale, to pale. Her eyes were a deep ocean blue and in a good light they looked silvery- grey. Miyako hated the idea of a kimono, she turned them into dresses." Sesshomaru looked to where his Inuyahsa was 'secretly' listening. "Lord Sesshomaru, was Miyako a demon or a mortal like me?" ask Rin. "She was a demon of course, silly child. My Lord does not like mortals." answered Jaken. "But Master Jaken, I'm a mortal." Rin said. "Jaken, Rin enough if you want me to finish the story then be quiet." "Yes Lord Sesshomaru." They both say in unison.

Lord Sesshomaru began to continue, "She was a demon, but oddly had only one demon marking. It was a bright orange strip on the palm of her right hand. I first saw her in a meadow just north of here, she was wearing a black dress with blue flowers all throughout it, Miyako's eyes looked like the deep blue depths of the ocean in the colorful sunset."

Sesshomaru's POV (Past)

There stood the girl playing with a flower not even looking up to acknowledge the fact that I was near her, "You, mortal girl who do you think you are ignoring the Great Lord Sesshamoru?" She looks up at me, "I am Princess Miyako and I was not ignoring you just had yet to look at you, so please put you ignorance aside. I am not a mortal but a demon, now if you will excuse me I have much better things to do then be insulted by the likes of you." Then Miyako was gone, Demon? Where are her markings? Nevermind. Ignorance? This Sesshomaru has no such thing. I followed Miyako, she was heading towards the sea.

I can see her standing at the edge of the sand, she is staring at the moon, "Lord Sesshomaru, there is no need to spy." Miyako turns to face me, Damn! I step out of my hiding spot and approach the Princess, "How did you know I was there, Princess?" She looks into my golden eyes, "I felt you following me." Felt? This girl is actually confusing me. "Why, Lord Sesshomaru, did you follow me in the first place? I've heard what people say, and people say you're a merciless bastard. So I ask again, why are you following the princess?"
