Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha but all ideas in all my fics are mine!
I have decided only fics I plan to continue will have dedications but if I continue ones I didn't plan to by popular demons I will.
Sesshoumaru had once more come to fight Inuyasha. It was one of those gray days. Where the sun didn't shine and the clouds made everything seem gray. Kagome and the others stood by watching the fight. Sesshoumaru was wining. This is how it went though. One time Inuyasha would win and another time Sesshoumaru would.
"It seems that even though they don't like each other they will take turns," Miroku commented. The group snickered a bit but knew it was true. The brothers did take turns. Inuyasha was getting tired though and had no doubt that Sesshoumaru would kill him this time but he wouldn't let anyone know that that was the type of thoughts running through his head. Inuyasha kept fighting but Sesshoumaru got him onto the ground.
"Prepared to die little brother?" Sesshoumaru asked. Tokijin pointed at Inuyasha's throat.
"Just hurry up and kill me you bastard," Inuyasha spat. Just then Miroku ran forward and had full intent of sucking Sesshoumaru into his wind tunnel. Sesshoumaru at first jumped away from the vortex in the process losing his grip on the Tokijin to it fell to the ground nearby. Miroku turned it once more onto Sesshoumaru and hit him dead on but he didn't go flying in he was trying to get out from the winds. Just then Rin showed up rubbing the eye that would have seen Miroku.
"Lord Sesshoumaru, I can't sleep," she walked closer. Jaken ran after and saw the wind tunnel.
"Rin stop!" Jaken yelled but the seven year old didn't listen. She continued to walk towards Sesshoumaru. Unfortunately Sesshoumaru couldn't move much and his words were lost before Rin would be able to hear them. Miroku reacted but too late the little girl was flying to the center of the wind tunnel. She screamed. Sesshoumaru went wide eyed and was able to back up. He made a wide circle at top demon speed and ran through the wind tunnel, his feet leaving the ground for moments and the wind tunnel was pulling him in but he grabbed Rin and pushed himself out of it but with Miroku's helps. He managed to close the wind tunnel before Sesshoumaru actually the vortex. All heard crying and turned to the source and found Rin crying into Sesshoumaru's tail. Sesshoumaru couldn't comfort the girl. Miroku stood there knowing he almost sucked up a small human child.
Sesshoumaru walked over to where the Tokijin lay and picked it up, making sure Rin did not tumble from his grasp. Inuyasha got ready to once more fight Sesshoumaru. To everyone's surprise Sesshoumaru placed the Tokijin back at his side. He turned and started to walk away. Jaken was blabbering on and all knew that Sesshoumaru wasn't listening. Sango walked over to Miroku.
"You alright?" she asked gently no one knew how Miroku would react.
"I almost killed her. I almost killed a little human girl," Miroku shook a bit. All were silent they could hear Jaken asking something that caught their attention.
"My lords aren't you going to go back and kill them for trying to hurt Rin?" Jaken asked.
"No," Sesshoumaru answered simply. This surprised everyone.
"Why?" Jaken backed away a bit just incase.
"This is over," Sesshoumaru answered and kept walking.
Rin between sobs asked Sesshoumaru one thing, "where are we going?"
"Home," was the simple answer. No one knew exactly what that meant. Sango guided Miroku gently to the village nearby. Kagome, Shippo, Inuyasha and Kilala followed.
In the West, Sesshoumaru sat in his room. Rin's maids had taken on the girl. Knowing their lord was in no condition himself to try and comfort the girl.
So badly did I want Inuyasha dead that I was willing to put Rin's life in danger to kill him. I hadn't realized what was right in front of me. I can't let that happen. No more. I will stay here in the West where Rin can't be killed. He thought. He sat on the windowsill in his own room. She almost died. Rin almost died. I refuse to let that happen again. She nearly died a single tear ran down his cheek.
After a while Rin walked into Sesshoumaru's room. He was still lost in thought sitting on the windowsill.
"Lord Sesshoumaru?" she sniffled. Her maids had told her that Sesshoumaru was in no condition to see anyone but she had to see him.
"Hn?" Sesshoumaru snapped from his thoughts and looked over at Rin. Rin felt tears well up in her eyes when Sesshoumaru turned to face her fully. She ran over and gripped his leg tight and cried. Sesshoumaru picked Rin up and held her close to him. He breathed in her scent. "I am sorry. I'm so sorry," he muttered. Tears fell from his eyes. Somewhere along the line Rin had stopped being a little human and had become his little girl. His adopted daughter. Rin buried her face into her face into her lord's chest now that it was free of its armor. I almost lost you today ran though his mind. No. Such a thing couldn't happen again. I'm not strong enough to lose you he thought and held Rin closer. Soon Rin's sobs stopped and she was asleep in her master's embrace. The Tensaiga pulsed at his side and when Sesshoumaru looked, there was his left arm back. Turns out the Tensaiga was waiting for Sesshoumaru to open up to someone. With his newly returned left arm, Sesshoumaru held Rin fully.
"Daddy," Rin muttered in her sleep and cuddled up close to Sesshoumaru. He looked down at Rin and smiled warmly at her.
This is my daughter. This is my child. My human child he thought and stood up from the sill and walked outside where the sun was out. He sat beneath a tree still holding Rin. He looked out at the lake and listened to Rin's deep breathing.
How did you all like it? I thought up of it recently! I have other ideas running around in my head but this one stuck out.
