Chapter Three: Connection of the Rivers

After countless of hours, Sesshoumaru gave a frustrated growl underneath his breath and stood. Walking wide strides towards the glassy double doors that lead to his balcony he stared out into the vast planes of his garden. It was raining hard and the fierce wind blew viciously, but flowery field stood strong. Some have long succumb to the strong beatings of the wind and rain, they now lay flat on the ground. Trampled and flooded by the on-going rain outside, as the lightening flashed once more Sesshoumaru caught a glimpse of something...

Focusing his eyes towards the flooded areas a little river flowed through them, connecting them with a graceful strand of water. It was shining brightly in the lightening's radiance and its flowing beauty was interrupted as the rain constant push against it. Sesshoumaru watched as the river flowed to one place to another and constantly trying to connect to what ever land it touched. By building up slight shores that is bound to expand some point in time, it was almost certain that the little rivers will indeed complish its main goal. Which is to expand its watery territory...

Watching this, Sesshoumaru could have sworn he heard music being played in his head. It was the same music 'she' was playing from this afternoon; it was clearer now though. Almost as though he can actually play it, touch it, and practically FEEL it. Turning quickly he practically ran to his piano, sitting down with a 'plop' he started the piece over. Following his instincts, ears, mind and soul...play over and over from slow to fast, fast to slow. He continued...soon he was listening to the rain outside as well, the constant pitter-platter gave him his scale. Adding it into the piece he started again once more, slow and fast...fast to slow, up and down, down to up.

In constant motion he found no end that was when he heard the rain slowly stopped its violent beatings upon the earth outside. Listening to its soft and almost inaudible tempo, he found his ending. Pressing his keys to a slow and almost sure stop he concluded his song to its rightful ending. He understood now, this song was given to those who would understand its meaning not just play it as a pastime enjoyment. This song represent life in itself and showed the cycle of life too.

This was the reason why 'she' gave this song to him, this song was perfect for him and is now in his care to pass it on to another person who will care for it as she did before him. He could have sworn he felt a smile slowly form on his passive face as his answer came up to him. Putting his hands back onto the keys of the piano he tried the song once more, adding in what was needed and taking out the extras from before. As he slowly came to his stop a loud applaused erupted from the large audience he had at his doors.

He was so focused on his music and so frustrated he never noticed anyone else in his quarters, everyone was there. Maids, butlers, and even his family; his father seemed pleased while his step-mother seemed quite proud and Inuyasha being Inuyasha just said, "Che..." and turned around. Before he did so though, Sesshoumaru could have sworn he saw a spark of admiration in his eyes.

He looked around as though expecting someone else to be there listening, it took him to realize he wanted 'her' to be there. He wanted her to listen to the song she taught him, for her to hear his version of it. He wanted 'her' to feel pleased, proud and admired. It was her song not his, he did not wish to get credit for what was not his. He knew he did not need it because he will always have this, but she did not. All he saw that afternoon was her; she was alone with no one there with her.

He wanted that to change, through the song he felt a strong connection with her. She had something special and he wanted to exploit it, bath in it as one would bath under the afternoon's sun. Yes, that will be his decision; he saw see that girl again tomorrow and give her what he has learned just now. This time, he will call her name...'Rin.'

Sesshoumaru lifted his head to see his father before him with awe shining in his eyes as he asked, "Sesshoumaru, my son, where have you learned such a wonderful piece? I have never heard you play such a heart touching song before."

It was true, he always made it seem as though he didn't feel the music but he knew his father was right. Sesshoumaru never played something that touched his heart this deeply ever, this was the first for him and he was sure it wouldn't be his last either. As he replied, "A friend taught me..."

He didn't miss the gasps that came from his audience either, whispers were heard as Inuyasha then bellowed, "WHAT! You! HAVE A 'FRIEND!' "

He broke into fits of laughter after that, in fact he was laughing till tears fell from his tightly shut eyes. Sesshoumaru felt anger rise in his system as never before as Inuyasha then stuttered trying to catch his breath, "F-fri-iend? T-that's jus-st g-great, F-Fluffy has a 'friend now...(sighs) Don't you mean 'Sex toy,' Fluffy? Its not 'nice' to give labeled names to the whores-"

He was cut off as a fist next landed on his jaw as he found himself flying back a few steps before seeing the white ceiling. Screams as well as shrieks were heard, everyone stared at the now beyond enraged Sesshoumaru, who now stood into a more proper stance as he spoke coldly, "This Sesshoumaru advise you, little brother, to keep your big mouth shut. Do not speak of what you have no clue about, you have no right to label people as well. Last time this Sesshoumaru checked, this Sesshoumaru wasn't the one bringing home 'toys,' nor do he wish to waste his time on them as you would."

With that he walked out the room leaving his now gapping crowd wondering what just happened. He walked down the stairs and towards the dinning room to find something to eat. All while thinking, 'I WILL find out that next song...and I will see if this Rin girl have what I'm looking for...'
