Our clock ticks till it breaks your glass And I drown in you again.
It was like shattering glass.
His beast broke and howled with her lifeless body in his arms. But as he howled Kagome's body glowed with the power of the jewel and as much as he wanted to hold onto her he could not. Her body turned to ash and flew away from him in the wind. Far to the West, a baby cried out scaring everyone in the room.
"Something is wrong" Sesshomaru's mother held the baby now.
Inutashio walked over and placed his forehead against his grandsons and closed his eyes. A chill went up his spine and his hairs stood up.
The baby cried louder, calling back.
He reacts to his fathers call.
Inutashio pulled back and looked at the others.
"What is it" Inuyasha knew that look, something was wrong.
"I feel a surge of demonic power and it's not happy" Kikyo placed a hand on her mates shoulder.
"Father" Inuyasha urged.
He closed his eyes "Your brother is calling out in loss"
"What ya mean loss" Inuyasha tugged closer.
Inutashio looked back at the small infant "His mother will not be coming home this day"
Kikyo hit the ground in a cry, Inuyasha mothers went to her.
"What" Inuyasha was stunned and angry and hurt "I'm going to kill him!"
Inutashio grabbed Inuyasha "Stop"
"No! She was my friend!" He cried "How could he let her die!"
"That was her choice to make Inuyasha!"
"She loved him!" Inuyasha yelled "She loved all us"
He cried "We love her" The anger came back and he looked at the door "All of us but him" He sneered. "As far as I'm concerned he kill her!"
Inutashio loosened his hold on Inuyasha "I think he is aware of that Inuyasha, that is why his beast is calling out into the night"
Inuyasha tugged out his father grip "I ain't staying here if I do Ill kill him or die trying"
Inutashio could not blame him.
So as one son fled, another returned.
Sesshomaru walked up to his son who laid in his grandmother's arms now sleeping.
"Sesshomaru" Inutashio spoke "Where is Kagome's body"
Sesshomaru leaned down and the baby opened his eyes. Sesshomaru felt a strange feeling in his chest "He has her eyes" He said to no one. If he wasn't careful, he knew he could drown in his son's eyes.
Sorrow that he wasn't willing to admit.
"Will you claim him?" His mother asked.
Sesshomaru leaned his forehead against his sons and when he pulled away his moon was upon his forehead.
"His name shall be Inu Hōseki"
"Sesshomaru" His father pressed again.
Sesshomaru looked at his hands "She too is gone with the wind"
Inutashio placed a hand on his sword, not even he could bring her back now.
"Inuyasha has left"
"And so shall" Sesshomaru stated,
"You will abandon him? Her death would be in vain" Inutashio was confused "Did you not just claim him as your own?"
"He is my son" He looked back at his son and slightly growled at him. The baby wiggled its nose and cooed.
"I shall return, till then I leave him to you, mother"
The clock tower struck dawn, the end of one tragic day and the start of another one.
The sons of the West were gone, at least for now.
"Do you think he will return?" Sesshomaru's mother asked,
Inutashio took the baby from her and looked at him.
"You indeed have your mother's eyes little one"
He feared his son would never return because if he did he would have to face his son whose eyes shone like glass and were a reflection of its lost mother.
A painful reminder of the choices he had made.
