I am soooo sorry! My computer has a virus and it's taking a long time to get this on fanfiction. Well anyways, someone had asked who Rin's father was (notice how I say was) and that will be explained a few chapters after Kagome and Sesshomaru meet. They will meet in the next two or three chapters. So sit tight and enjoy the ride.
Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha. If I did then Kagome and Sesshomaru would be together with little Kagomes and Sesshomarus running around (including Rin and Shippo), Kikyo would actually stay dead after the first time she dies (after she is brought back to life as a clay pot), and Inuyasha would be in his own personal hell times two.
Chapter 4: The Great Demon Lord Meets the Little Girl (Rin's P.O.V.)
When the last part was yelled out to the wolves by Koga, the half that didn't go after Rin attacked me and as they did all I could do was send a silent prayer to the Kamis, asking them to save my daughter and keep her safe.
I ran without looking back hoping that the wolves wouldn't get me. I could here my mommy fighting with some of them and I knew that she would win. But I was still scared. My Kaa-san could fight but I just knew that I would die. But I also knew that I will meet her again.
I could hear one of the wolves running closer and closer to me. I didn't know how long I've been running for or how far away from Edo I am. All I can here are the wolves' paws hitting the forest floor along with mine and my breath mixing in with theirs.
Then I felt it. The white-hot pain as it traveled down my back where a wolf jumped on. Somehow I was flipped over by them and all I could see was their snouts and teeth covered with my blood.
So much pain.
It hurts so much.
Why won't it end?
Why?
Then… it stopped. I could still hear the wolves but something was fighting with them. I kept seeing flashes of white and slivers of steel here and there.
I kept wondering what it was. But then I realized…
Someone is helping me.
Then I realized that they were too late. The only reason why the pain stopped was because I was numb.
Just numb.
My vision was blurring and I could tell that the fighting had stopped. I couldn't speak. I wanted to ask the kind people to be kind to me and end my misery right here, right now. But I couldn't.
I closed my eyes that were so much like Kaa-san's and waited for death to take me.
Before it could, I felt someone picking me up. I heard two voices. I opened my eyes to see who had tried to save me. There were two men… youkai males as mommy had taught me. They were so beautiful. Like angels. Both had long white hair that looked silver in the sun's light with golden, amber eyes staring down at me and a sapphire crescent moon on their brow. I could see, what looked like, pointed ears peeking out of their hair like when mommy used to play peek-a-boo with me when I was one. I couldn't make any thing else out because of my blurring vision.
I wanted to say thank you to them so badly. But before I, the shadows took over.
Sesshomaru's P.O.V.
I stood there staring at my father with the little human onna in his arms. This Sesshomaru could feel the tensaiga pulsing and looked down to see it, indeed, pulsing a blue color at my father's waist. He looked down to see tensaiga then set the child down.
"Father, what are you doing?" I asked looking at the great Inu no Taisho with no emotion.
"What is it look like I'm doing, my boy?" he grunted out looking at this Sesshomaru with an annoyed look on his face.
"It looks like you are about to save an insignificant life."
He looked over at me as if he wanted to hit me upside the head.
As he unsheathed tensaiga, I looked at the onna child and wondered who she had gotten the odd eye color from.
Father looked at the unseen imps on the child's body and swept down tensaiga. As soon as tensaiga was once again sheathed the human child twitched. Soon she looked up at us with drowsy, ocean blue eyes.
Father knelt down to the girl as she lay there and said, with a gentle smile, "What is your name child?"
The little girl looked up at Father and smiled a drowsy smile.
"Rin. My name is Rin."
Then she fell asleep.
