Chapter 2: A Father's Message and a Girl's Worries
"Sesshoumaru-sama, Sesshoumaru-sama!" a feudal Rin called out waiting for her lord to bring a new extravagant gift. It had been about a year after the death of the half-breed Naraku and the little village of Edo was enjoying their peace.
"Feh, I hope he leaves quickly I don't want his stink in my village" Inuyasha murmurs in the background with his hand tucked in his red hatroi with his dog ears twitching. Ever since the disappearance of a certain young futuristic miko he been moody always bored, solemn and even a little depressed sometimes. Because now he truly felt alone among people like she was the only real person in the village, even Kikyo didn't feel the same way.
"Half-breed your village already had a horrid smell to it, consider my presence a blessing to this hovel you call a village" countered the aristocratic demon without even a glance to Inuyasha. Sesshomaru could care less about the half-breed's mood from the loss of the miko but he couldn't help letting the half-breed know its place, which was under him like all beings.
Rin spotted Ah-Un in the bushes behind Sesshoumaru, "Ah-Un! You came too!" Rin smiled and ran to the two headed dragon and patted their heads. "Your new kimono is in the saddle-bags" Sesshoumaru told the child. Sesshoumaru left Rin here because she needed to be with humans and she only stayed was promises of him visiting her, he picked this village not because he had gain some respect for the half breed, no it was the miko who earned his respect it was she that he would leave Rin with, why? He could think of hundreds of excuses, she bathed more, she respected him, she had some intelligence about her and many others but in the end they were just excuses he told himself over and over in reality he had no idea why he left Rin in this village and he didn't know the real reasons he always comes back. But a part of him hoped the miko would return, he hoped that Rin would learn to be a women like her, she seemed more alive than any human he has ever came in contact with even Rin but Rin was still young and has much more growing to do. Once Rin retrieved her kimono he left to the unknown to wander Japan until something happened.
"Did we miss Sesshoumaru-sama?" a young pregnant ex-demon slayer asked.
"Yeah but why do you care still expect him to kill you for threatening Rin?" Inuyasha gruffly replied
"Sesshoumaru-sama already forgave Sango-san and he knew Naraku was just trying to fool Sesshoumaru-sama" Rin shot back at Inuyasha and ran back to help the old miko Kaade.
"Do not worry my dearest Sango, no harm will befall you" said a humble monk while caressing the bottom he so loved.
SLAP! "Really Miroku must you really always try? Can you just give it a break!" Sango yelled at to pervert
"But, I'm just expressing how much I still and always love your body more matter what happens"
"No, you're just a pervert!"
"no harm may not fell on Sango but if Miroku keeps this up he might not make it to fatherhood" Shippo, the young fox demon said landing on Inuyasha's shoulder, While Sango continued bickered at Mikoku in the background.
"Yeah I thought Sango was scary before now that's she pregnant I don't wanna get within 10 feet of her, you know just in case" Inuyasha whispered taking an extra step away from the glowing slayer.
As for the once shikon hunting group, the slayer was with hers and the monk's first child, young Shippo has learning to be the best fox demon, leaving on several occasions for exams and returning to trick Inuyasha for practice. Shippo and Inuyasha became closer being the only other demons in the village besides Kilara (who was very protective over Sango since Kilara could start to smell the baby); they had a brother-bond that after Naraku's death that started to flourish.
Flap, flap, flap, flap
"The hell?" Inuyasha swore looking to the sky and grabbing Sango's attention as she stepped over an unconscious Mikoku. A hawk like creature swooped down landing on a nearby hut glazing down at Inuyasha.
"What the hell does it want?" Inuyasha demanded while staring right back at the hawk.
"It's a messenger hawk, used in war and battles, it probably has a message for you but I don't know why?" Sango informed the dog demon hybrid and holding her arm out so the hawk can land. Once the hawk was comfy on its back was a cylinder spanning the length of the hawk's back, Sango carefully removed the cylinder and handed it to Inuyasha. "I wonder who it's from" Shippo asked still on Inuyasha shoulder.
"Keep your shirt on, give me a sec" Inuyasha gruffly replied breaking the twist top off and grabbing the small letter. He opened the letter and began to read "to my lost sons, what the hell?" he exclaimed while reading the rest in silence.
"Well? Who's it from" Shippo exclaimed
"'an equally lost father' what the hell? My dad's been dead for years how the hell would a letter get to me that only smells a few days old?" Inuyasha answered
"Perhaps it wasn't your father" Mikoku said regaining consciousness
" maybe your right the letter didn't really say whose sons but what it says is kinda weird he says that the world is fake and he hopes his kids will see some truth" Inuyasha still confused.
"The world is fake?" Shippo says confused as well
"Yeah, probably some wacko wrote it no wonder his son don't wanna see him" Inuyasha replied, throwing the letter away.
/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\
Sesshoumaru was heading west, he didn't know why and he could careless, with Naraku gone and no longer wanting his father's heirloom, Sesshoumaru had no real goals so he just wanders like his father once did a long time ago. His father, no saw him die the dragon lord only mortally wounded his father but with medical attention Sesshoumaru believed that his great father would have survived the battle. Sesshoumaru stared ahead and continued to walk ahead.
Flap, flap, flap
'that scent' Sesshoumaru looked up to see a messenger hawk flying to him, 'father has sent a message to me from beyond to grave?' it didn't make sense though the scent was his father's and it was fresh so his father would be alive but Sesshoumaru went to his grave. 'I guess that wasn't father's grave' he held his arm out for the bird and it landed gracefully on Sesshoumaru's new arm and bowed its head for Sesshoumaru to retrieve his package. Sesshoumaru opened the cylinder and opened the letter. 'To my lost sons? As cryptic as ever father' his father considered him lost? Then his father goes on about how the world isn't what it is, would it be? 'Hn' this scent is only a few days old he must have written it recently, is father truly alive? Did he never die? This letter brought too many question than it answered. But at least now he had something to do.

"To finish this equation you then divide each side by the denominator-" RING RING "well I guess that's it remember your assignments are due the beginning of next week have a good weekend" the teacher finished talking. Kagome packing her stuff until Yuka, Emi and Ayumi interrupted "so how was the date with Hojo?" Emi questioned
"Did you guys kiss under the sky?" Ayumi asked with romantic thoughts swirling in her mind.
"Was he more of a gentleman than Inuyasha?" Yuka kindly demanded
"What? Oh, it was nice we saw a movie, no we didn't kiss and yes he was a gentleman but so was Inuyasha was just Inuyasha was a selective gentleman" Kagome explained a little downcast remembering her adventures with Inuyasha, 'I miss him so much, I wonder if he misses me too?'
"Kagome? Earth to Kagome! You still there girl?" Emi said waving her hand in front of Kagome's face
"What? Did you guys say anything else?" Kagome asked in honest confusion 'she still daydreams about him? Oh Kagome' Emi thought
"Well I said if you guys wanted to go hang out for a while" Yuka asked, she was really bored, it was written all over her face.
"Sorry Yuka I have to help my grandpa clean the shrine" Kagome answered and headed out of the class room. It's been about a year since Naraku and the well sealed her to the future. A few months later her friends persuaded her to date Hojo, Kagome knew that she wouldn't fall for him and the sooner everyone figured that out they all can move on, Hojo could never compare to Inuyasha not after everything they went though. 'I really don't want to upset him but it's just me and Inuyasha have been through so much' with that thought brought a whole line of new ones 'I wonder how fast Miroku got Sango pregnant. What's Shippo doing? I wish I could see you all again' Kagome could help but miss the enchanting world that the well took her to despite all its dangers she loved it. Kagome spent her time comparing the two worlds, the freshness of the feudal era's air, the beauty of the forest, but she couldn't forget all the villages that were attacked by either demons, bandits, or a plague that could have been cured with something as simple a washing after yourself, some of those villages were disgusting! She hoped that at least Sango learned the importance of cleanliness.
Inuyasha , I wonder what you're up to Kagome wondered. She hoped that he wouldn't do anything stupid and get himself hurt or worse, Inuyasha do you miss me too?
