A/N I read over my story and I now know why I've only gotten three reviews. My work Sucks! So I will make an attempt to do better. If I fail I won't type any more chapters. Reviews would make me feel better though.

Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha, yet. :)

It had been months since the cold winter day that had caused Rin to be mute again. Sesshomaru had become accustomed to the occasional breeze, caressing his cheek. Rin was slowly crawling out from the shell Faith had put her in. Jaken went into a sedated like state and Ah-Uhn seemed restless. They all wore masks to hide their emotions. Thankfully, Sesshomaru was the master at that. One, scorchingly hot, day Rin lay with Jaken, lazily, across Ah-Uhn's back. A thin film of sweat covered everyone but Sesshomaru. A dreadful drought had taken them all into hyper-testy drive. They ventured slowly across a small desert like valley. They hard packed dirt seemed to blister anything that touched it. Sesshomaru's amber eyes scanned the vast flatland. He sensed her nearby. The wind carried her scent of rain. He then noticed her on the horizon. She wavered like a mirage. He saw the smudge of her painted white wings against her golden slayers outfit. As she drew closer, he noticed her samurai's sword. It bumped lazily against her firm thigh. Her body sauntered painstakingly slowly towards them. Her black eyes held a deadly glint in them. He also noticed her hair change. It was now up to her chin, pointing slightly towards her chin. A golden hair band held back her bangs, revealing more of her pale face, that contrasted with her dark hair. Sunlight glinted off her golden cat suite, making her seem less realistic. "Hey there slick, long time no see." she cooley smirked. In a flash Sesshomaru unsheathed Goshinki's sword. He focused all his senses on her. He saw every quiver her waiting muscles made. His acute nose smelled her light scent. The thing that confused him was that he heard no heart beat. He watched her switch her weight from one foot to the other. He inwardly cursed at the way this caused the suit to stick to her body. "You like?" she asked gesturing to the suit. "Thought it would livin me up a bit." she grinned at him broadly and ran her hands down her chest. Sesshomaru felt a familiar pressure against the front of his pants. 'Damn her, why can't I hear her heart?' She slowly glided her hands down to her sword handle. She slowly pulled it out, pulling it diagnoly to her right. She flicked her wrist slightly, catching a glint off her handmade, curved, sword. "I thought changes were in order." she stated shaking her head, sending her short hair everywhere. It quickly went back into to place and she began her advance onto Sesshomaru. Sesshomaru heard Rin whimper from behind him. "Rin, get back." he said without looking backwards at her. "What's wrong? Rin, I thought we were buddies. Don't you like me anymore? No hard feelings about last time, right?" Faith mocked, cruelly. She raised her sword to the small opening of her suit that exposed the top of her chest. She slid it downward slowly drawing a line of crimson blood. She licked her lips suggestively as Sesshomaru's pants got tighter. She was now right in front of Sesshomaru and she stared emotionless into her dark orbs. It was like the first time she looked at him. Only now he knew she really had none. Rin whimpered again and Faith glanced aggravatedly over his shoulder. "Shut it!" she shouted before turning back to him. Ready to fight he began to raise his sword. Without warning she lashed out and grabbed his sword from his hand. She then took both his and her sword and tossed them carelessly over her shoulder. She looked into his eyes again and they locked. He became lost in her. It was then he saw a small cresent moon of blue around her eyes. He studied it. He had a vague knowing of her tenderly removing his armor and shirt. He was unable to see anything but that sliver of unimagineably gorgeous blue. He felt her claws graze his muscular stomach, yet didn't care. The blue was so clear and crisp. Like a punch to the ego he was awakened from his daydream to Rin's voice.
"Sesshomaru-sama?" she cried weakly. He jumped back amazed at his lack of awareness. He looked down to see himself topless and covered in small scratches. Faith stood in front of him smirking. Her claws were covered in his blood. She then raised her bloodied hand to her neck wound and mixed their blood. There was a flash of red light as their blood intertwined. Sesshomaru then heard a faint thumping. He looked up to see Faith collapsed on the hard earth. The dull thumping was her heart. It was beating. He watched her back rise and fall as she struggled for breath. For reasons Sesshomaru would never know he went to her. And in the middle of the desert he leaned down by her side and grabbed her chin. He lifted her face to look into his. He then saw what he knew had always been there. Beautiful blue eyes. Tears fell down her cheeks as her body was wracked with sobs. Sesshomaru felt a drop of rain touch his skin. Slowly the rain became more consistent. He watched as the white paint dripped from her wings, not to reveal black, but instead a purer, cleaner, white that dazzled in the down pour. Sesshomaru's silver hair became damp and clung to her pale face. He tenderly removed her golden hair band and let her hair fall behind her. "Arigato" she whispered as she wrapped her slender arms around his strong neck. Her soft cheek pressed slightly to his pointed ear. He shifted positions so she sat in his lap. Her soft breasts pressed against his hard chest. "What happened that night on the prairie?" Sesshomaru asked sternly. "I was... an angel," she said biting her lip slightly. "I was flying and there was this noise.. I heard arrows, then screaming." She let tears flow freely down her porcelain like cheeks. "They fell, my brother and friend, so I dived after them." She closed her pain filled eyes and shuddered. "You know angels were never supposed to land on earth so I just... became what I was. I lost my salvation. Then you saw and i was ashamed so I tried to kill you. Needless to say i failed. Then you... you sent me to that man and I lost all hope." She then chuckled slightly "I lost my faith" " So you went to kill me" he said helping her along.
"I didn't try to kill you because of your ego. I was... mad. that... that you couldn't save me. No one could. Funny thing about the undead. We don't tend to die. I knew what I was doing, but it was more like i was under water. I saw everything but no one could see me. It was... aggravating." she looked up at him with her eyes sparkling with relief. Sesshomaru felt the rain slowly let up. "I know who killed your friends." he stated putting his emotionless mask back on. "But you have to deal with gaining Rin's trust and stop trying to kill me." "Thats ok," she said hopefully "I can break a promise."
