A Wind Blows Through the West

Disclaimer: I have no Shikon no Tama to wish upon. Otherwise, I would have Sesshoumaru-sama

NOTE: Happy Valentine's Day! And Happy Chinese New Year as well! This is part of my epic post for the occasion! One-shots or chapters that go with the theme of Vday!

While I don't really see Sesshoumaru with anyone, the only pairing I find plausible is him with Kagura. But that ended in tragedy. Still, he looked genuinely sad to see her go.

So here's my take on a more bittersweet ending for them.

Two sonnets. This is from Sesshoumaru's point of view.


Enjoy. Reviews are loved!

Now that all your pain can finally cease

And your broken body is laid to rest

I find that I am somehow ill at ease

There's an unfamiliar ache in my chest

I could not save you, a great frustration

The sword of healing I inherited

I chose to use on this rare occasion,

Failed me, you could not have benefited

But you were serene, you left with a smile

I constantly search for you in the sky

A pure, free spirit no one can defile

Lady of the wind, this is not good-bye

Follow me then wherever I may roam

For where your wind blows, that shall be my home.
