It was a cold dark and rainy day when the young girl from the dark and cold castle, tears and pain in here eyes. Her hair black as night her skin white and cold, eyes so blue they looked like ice.
Yet, where was she going, without knowing the way?
He watch her run from the high tower of the cold stone castle, she will be back, he so thought, but, for once in his life, he was wrong. He didn't understand, how, how could she run away from him, this place, her home?
He waited for her to return, for many many days, but she didn't come.
He was her opposite, his hair the color of fine silver, his eyes as gold as pure honey, but not near as warm, no, they held a very cold look, one that could freeze hell for sure. His skin looked cold as the dead, but in fact, if one could ever touch him, they would be shocked to find him warm.
It rained, for many many days it rained.
"Are you not going to go after her" Came a cold voice, he narrowed his eyes, his back to the woman speaking to him, his arms crossed, his view to the far off land.
"It is she who has left, what duty is it of mine to go after the girl?" He would not case her, never.
"So you will let my sister die?"
He turns ever so slowly to the woman behind him, she stand in the stone arch of the doorway, all the walls are built with gray stone.
"I did not force her to leave, if she dies, it will be of her own doing, human"
The woman, who could and could not be the girls twin, in turn, narrows her eyes, "I am more than a mere human, you remember that"
"You would do well to remember what I am as well"
"Yes, I know what you are"
He walks to her, past her, but stops at her cold uncaring voice,
"Perhaps you should have told her what you are"
He closes his eyes, damn this wench.
"Be silent"
"She loved you"
He turns quickly to her "Unlike you, she is but a child, she was not ready"
"How do you know" She snapped,
His eyes wanted to bleed red,
"She could no handle knowing the truth, she could not handle me" He says dark,
"You do not know that Sesshomaru, you didn't give her a chance" Came his brothers younger voice, he now stands behind the human wench.
"She came you" Her sister speaks on her behalf,
Sesshomaru turns from them,
"She ran away because she sent her away"
"She was not ready"
"That was not for you to decide" His younger brother speaks again,
"She wanted your touch" Kikyo, that is this sisters name,
"She is but a mere child"
"And it was up to you to make her a woman!" Snapped her sister again,
This pisses him off, he turns and grabs her, his nail digging into her, his eyes red, his fangs showing, ready.
"I am not afraid of you vampire" She spits in his face,
"She, was, not, ready" He speaks slow,
Her eyes soften and he can feel her swallow under his hold, as if something has just come to her mind,
"It was not her who was not ready, but you"
