Sesshomaru through the well, and Kikyo's farewell.
Sesshomaru stood in the moonlight, looking down the curious little wooden well, and dwelling on the day that he'd seen his brother leave through it. He stood looking at it for a very long time until a familiar form came to stand beside him.
"So you miss your brother after all." She said.
"Preposterous." He replied. "I'm simply curious."
"Is that so?" She asked. "Then I won't keep you from your thoughts." Sesshomaru reached for her and grabbed her cold hand.
"What is your interest in the well, Lady Kikyo?" He wanted to know.
"Nothing, I was merely curious." She replied and jerked her hand away. Sesshomaru turned to her then and looked deep into her eyes.
"You are a puzzlement." He said.
"What of it?" Sesshomaru smiled at the question and then did something rather impertinent. The terrifying demon took Kikyo in his one arm and kissed her violently. Kikyo, having not felt the touch of a man in so long could not help but give in and kiss him back. "What was that for?" She asked him when he finally let her go.
"You're a beautiful creature of the night. I simply wanted to know if there were not someway that I might warm your icy exterior." Kikyo looked into his handsome face for a moment before she slowly smiled.
"If you wanted to warm my body, you had but to asked." Kikyo said then disrobed before him. Sesshomaru reached for her and took her there upon the ground. The grass was their bed and their flesh was for a pillow as they lay with each other and made love. No, not love, but lust. It was lust which they made together for it was all that either of them was capable of feeling. As dawn arose in the sky above them they sat with each other and were both of them quiet for a time. Finally Jaken and Rin came from the woods in the far east. They saw their master sitting with Lady Kikyo by the well and ran to him.
"Lord Sesshomaru!" Jaken exclaimed. "Have you enlisted the aide of Lady Kikyo in your search for the answers to Inu-yasha's fate?"
"Silly creature. Is that what you think?" Kikyo asked. Then she looked at Rin. "The human girl suits you my Lord."
"She is my friend." Sesshomaru stated and petted Rin on the head.
"You are my friend now as well. For you hate Inu-yasha as much as I do. Yet you are willing to follow him into the other world to torment him." Kikyo said getting up. She dusted the grass and dirt from the hem of her gown and then started off back into the woods. "I shall miss you Lord Sesshomaru." She told him and then vanished into the dark thickets.
"Come Rin, Jaken, we go now."
"Go me Lord, to where?" The little green creature asked as he stared up at his master.
"Down the well, after Inu-yasha." He said.
"Down the well!" Jaken exclaimed. "But me Lord, is this not a simple well? Where might it possibly lead us?" "Wherever it leads, we must go, for Inu-yasha's suffering has not yet begun." Sesshomaru leaped up onto the sides of the well and lifted Rin up with him. Jakin scrambled up too and stood looking down into the depths of the well. "Take Rin's hand." Sesshomaru commanded.
"But me Lord…"
"Take it!" He commanded. Jaken obeyed and took Rin's hand then the three of them leaped forward into the well and disappeared.
