Good Things Come to an End

His eyes watched his step-mom from the back seat. She seemed to be gloomy. The meeting with her dad didn't go as well as she hoped. Her brother had showed up and ruined the event of showing off her newborn daughter to her father. She'd brought her stepson, Sesshoumaru, with her so he could get some time with his sister. He was attached to the small wolf/dog. It was the first and only sibling he really took interest in. He really didn't like his younger brother Inuyasha. The only thing he wanted to do to him was give him a nasty swirlly.

The 16 year old looking Sesshoumaru looked at his baby sister in her car seat. Her large emerald green eyes looked at him with a big smile plastered on her face. She squirmed in her seat and laughed as she reached for her big brother. A small smirk graced his lips as he picks up a rattle with his clawed hand and shook in her face. Her laughter filled the car again as she reached for the rattle with her own tiny clawed hand.

A larger smirk grew on Sesshoumaru's normal cold features as he continued to play with his sister. Nikita, Sesshoumaru's step-mom watched him silently from the rearview mirror. She loved it that he had grown attached to her daughter. It was her only wish, to see her stepsons to look at her daughter and lover her unconditionally. Her dark green eyes returned to the road as she drove back to her mate's mansion. She'd met Inu-Tisho while she had dinner with her father when she was a few years younger. He'd noticed her father and came over to say hello. She couldn't help but think how handsome he was when he turned and smiled at her.

Now here she was with his first daughter and his oldest quietest son on her way home. She loved living with him and his two sons. She'd been the first to see Sesshoumaru smile when she brought home Kayko. The little girl brought a smile to everyone. Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru both fought to see who'd hold their new sister first, Sesshoumaru won.

She titled her head to the side slightly as she heard Sesshoumaru shake Kayko's little rattle. Her smiled widened at hearing her daughters sputtering laughter. Her eyes swayed from the road as she looked at the time on the clock. It read 8:03 pm when something hit her driver door. The little black car, which was a gift from Inu-Tisho, slide across the dark street ramming into a light pole. Sesshoumaru's arms wrapped around his sister's baby seat, doing his best to protect her.

A small groan came from the front seat of the car as Nikita slightly turned in her seat, the metal door pinning her in. Blood dripped from an opened wound on her head as she stared at the two children in the back. Sesshoumaru stared at her, scared, as her eyes became dull. He gave a small whimper at seeing his step-mom die infront of him as his attention was brought back to his now crying sister. He's hand delicately unbuckled her from her seat as he got out of the car. He now felt unsafe at having his stepmother dead infront of him.

He stood next to the car as he looked around. The light pole his stepmother's car hit flickered on and off. Steam came off the two cars from the accident. He studied the car that hit them. The driver was gone. He assumed he had run from the scene. His eyes went over his sister to see if she had any wound. The only thing visible was a small cut on her cheek. Sesshoumaru held his sister close to his chest in one arm, her little nose burying into his neck. He smiled slightly as he fumbled with his phone trying to pull from his pocket. He liked it that his sister liked nuzzling him for comfort.

He looked down at his phone as he flipped it open. His finger hovered over the speed dial to his father when the sound of something dropping on the pavement made his head jolt up. He's clawed hand held tighter to his sister in a protective way as he looked around. The light from the light pole continued to flicker as a growl escaped his throat. Someone was there, stalking him and his sister. His eyes flickered to the car that hit them.

'Maybe the driver is still here.' He thought as he slowly turned around getting a survey of everything around him. He glared at a park he didn't know stood behind him. Someone was in there, watching him and his sister. His sister gave a small whimper as her little tail wrapped weakly around his arm. His fingers quickly changed course and dialed 911. His father would have to wait to be called. He put the phone to his ear as he pressed the call button.

"Hello, this is the emergency operator, how can I help you?" Sesshoumaru sighed relief at hearing the woman's voice on the other side.

"Hi, my names Sesshoumaru Takahashi and I was just in….." he grunted at feeling a force hit him on the back of his head. He's vision became a blur as he fell to the ground, still conscious. His handholding his sister weakened slightly. He could hear the lady talking louder on the phone asking if he was ok. A growl escaped his throat at feeling his sister sliding out of his arms.

His eyes looked up to see a black figure holding his sister, Her little green eyes wide with fear as she reached for him crying and screaming. He tried his best to get up and go after her but stumbled. He heard the operator, yelling at him to pick up the phone but all he could think of was to get his sister. He watched the black figure run to a car on the side of the road. He ran after him the best her could through blind eyes as the seemingly red car drove off, squealing its wheels.

He stood in the middle of the road, his eyes slowly coming back. He'd lost his sister and stepmother in one night. Is head turned from side to side, trying to figure out where he was. He walked back over to his phone and picked it up, is his hardening with rage.

"Send someone over here. Now." Was all he said as he hung up the phone and dialed his father. The night had gone from bad to worse in a mater of only 20 minutes. He looked at his stepmother's lifeless body in the car as he sat down next to the light pole. He heard the line pick up and his fathers voice ask where they were.

"Something terrible has happened father. Nikita is dead, and I lost Kayko." He voice became harder with every word. The line went quiet as the light pole gave one last flicker and went out over the now cold and heartless Sesshoumaru.
