Last Time...
Miroku could tell that she was worried when she found out Sakura and Mai hadn't left the kimono for Rin. But she had to pretend like it was nothing with Rin there. Miroku nodded and grabbed Sango's hand. "We'll search this place from top to bottom."
"So all of the doors, windows…" Sango started.
"Even the air vents, everything is locked and secure. I don't know how anyone got in here. Maybe Mai and Sakura are just playing a trick on Rin…" Miroku said pulling Sango into a hug.
"No, every time they play a prank on Rin they let me in on it. I just don't feel safe." Sango muttered before her eyebrow began to twitch as Miroku's hand comfortingly rubbed her bottom. "HENTAI!" Sango screamed which was followed by a loud slap.
"See Sango, at least you're not as tense as you were. If it is bothering you so much then I'll sleep in Kohaku's room tonight, okay?" Miroku said after waking up from a moment of unconsciousness without missing a beat.
"Yeah that would help a lot… Come on, I want to look at the pictures of the kimono on the computer…" Sango said as she shook her head slightly and followed Kirara up the stairs.
Sango waited patiently for Rin's computer to load up. And Miroku held Kirara up in the air and spun around in the computer chair just to prove how mature he really was.
Miroku looked over Sango's shoulders at the pictures and smiled. "Those pictures are gorgeous…" Miroku said and then instantly frowned. "Hey, what's that right there?" Miroku muttered as he leaned into the computer and pointed to the upper right hand corner of the screen.
"I don't know, you were standing behind me and it looks like a person…" Sango muttered as she zoomed in. "It's a man… Miroku, he's in every picture I took…" Sango said as she began to flick through the pictures slowly. Then she let go of the mouse which began to click at its own at a rapid pace. Kirara hissed at the computer furiously as Sango sat trying to figure out what was out of the ordinary.
"Sango get away from that thing!" Miroku yelled pulling her away from the possessed computer. Sango let out a short scream as the reality of the situation sunk in. Suddenly the computer mouse stopped on a picture.
The picture began to play as if it was a video. A girl sat in a field of flowers as the wind whipped playfully around her. She turned toward the computer screen and smiled. "Oh my god, it is Rin…" Sango muttered as she moved back towards the computer with much protest from Miroku. "But, she's older…" Sango said pulling Miroku toward the computer with her.
The older Rin continued to sit in the flower field as a soft humming sound engulfed the room from the speakers. A man with long silver hair and penetrating golden eyes then walked onto the screen and helped her get up. She wobbled a bit, to which Miroku noticed her stomach was awkwardly round and protruding. "This can't be real… Rin's never been pregnant…" Miroku muttered as he rubbed his eyes vigorously and then attempted to pinch himself awake.
"But that's the guy that showed up in her pictures…" Sango replied as she and Miroku became hypnotized with the screen. Kirara had calmed down and stood watching the screen intently.
Suddenly the scene changed and Rin stood leaning against a balcony at a ball. The silver haired man whispered something into her ear and walked away. Rin sighed slightly and continued to look out over the people. A man with black wavy hair then approached her with a drink.
Kirara hissed angrily as the hairs on her back stood on end. Sango jumped at the reaction Kirara had to the entrance of the man. But Miroku didn't seem to notice anything. Kirara began to pace the floor and stare holes into the computer screen. Sango decided to ignore her feline's behavior and tuned back in to the screen.
"Rin-sama, you're still as beautiful as ever. It's been a wondrous turn out for your baby shower." The black haired man said with a bow and then offered her the drink.
Rin looked slightly uncomfortable and gave the man a weak smile. "Arigato Naraku-sama…" She responded politely as she accepted the beverage.
"So where is your mate?"
Rin frowned at the question and hesitantly answered it. "He had some business to attend to with his father… He said it'll only take a minute if you're looking for him he's…"
"No actually I wanted to talk to you… What is it that you see in him?"
"Everything, the sun, the moon, the stars…"
"And you couldn't see those things in me…" Naraku asked venomously.
"It was an arranged marriage, I didn't love you." Rin replied in an airy whisper attempting not to cause a scene. Her voice cracked slightly and she took a sip of the drink. "Besides in the end we all said it was for the best, especially after Kikyo's death…"
"This isn't about her!"
"Then w-who…" She started and swayed for a moment before catching her balance again. "Then who is it about?"
"It's about you not appreciating me!"
"W-what are you talking about? W-we n-never had a r-relationship…" She said as her eyes slowly dilated.
"I would have given you everything, that bastard doesn't give a shit about you!" Naraku raved. "I gave you a chance to prove your worth because you were nothing but a lowly human…" He started in a low voice before he began to yell. "And you betrayed me by falling in love with that bastard! I know I gave you everything and I'll be damned if I don't take it all away!"
Rin dropped the glass and held onto the railing. "What did you do to me?" She muttered as she sunk to the floor, her legs giving way. But Naraku grabbed her arm and pulled her back up to his face. Rin began to sweat and gasp for air.
"You bitch, I loved you… but you didn't care at all. But I swear as long as my spirit roams this or any other realm, you'll never be with him." Rin's eyes began to roll into the back of her head. Her lips moved constantly in the same pattern over and over again until Naraku crushed his lips against hers. "If I can't have you, no one can..."
Suddenly the screen blacked out for a moment and the room was filled with laughter. Then a pair of red eyes appeared on the screen. "I'll have her and kill her and devour her soul. No one will stop me from having what's mine. She will be mine…" The words were followed by more laughter and then silence.
"M-Miroku… W-we have t-to g-get to R-Rin…" Sango stuttered out as she began to shake violently.
"Sango calm down…" Miroku cooed as he attempted to stop her shaking. He then grabbed her arm and the headed down the stairs. "Come on Kirara, we're going to the Takahashi's." Neither of them noticed the spiders that began to crawl from the computer as they left. And as they drove off into the rain both silently wondered if they would see the sun shine again.
