Chapter 10: Death but a sweet talk

I felt my eyes open and I saw the big blue sky. The white clouds were so pretty this time of year. I put my arms to the ground and pushed myself off the ground. I was sitting on the sidewalk and I looked up at the very familiar house.

It had brown wooden walls and was a two story house. It had a black roof with black shingles. It had medium sized windows with a lighter brown shutters. The door was bright white and had a golden door handle. Hanging on the door was a sign that said 'Brown Family.' I chuckled a bit but smiled. I stood up and ran to the door. I was home…In Phoenix.

I opened the door and smiled. I saw the same wooden floors and wooden walls. To the right was the living room and to the left was the kitchen. There was a brown staircase tucked in the small corner beside the doorway to the right. Upstairs was my old bedroom to the right and my parents old bedroom to the left. I looked to the left on the main floor to see that the kitchen was still the same. It had a dinning room table in the left corner and stainless steal appliances. I turned to the right and walked into the living room.

I saw the window tucked into the right corner and the stone fireplace in front of me. I turned to my left and gasped. I saw my father sitting on the black leather couch. He was starring at the turned on fireplace.

"Father!" I said as he turned to me with saddened eyes.

"Y-Yune! What are you doing here? You are not supposed to be dead." He said as I sat beside him on the leather couch.

"…I died protecting someone important to me father…I'm so happy to see you."

"…I'm happy to see you too…I've been watching you as much as I can Yune. I'm sorry you had to deal with your mother."

"That's alright…Actually father, I have a couple questions…"

"I'll answer any of them."

"…How did you die?"

"…Yune this is very complex…But your mother, she killed me."

"Mom?"

"Yes…You see she found out that I was a demon…she was so angry that she didn't even know what to do. I told her over and over again…but she wouldn't believe that I loved her. She thought I just used her for her money. One day, while I was down stairs in the basement…She came down with a bow and arrow. She shot me…in the heart…She took out the arrow, called the ambulance and made it look like I died of a shooting…"

"…Mother…she killed you, than tried to kill…me?"

"Unfortunately she became skeptic of the fact that I told her somehow you stayed human…So she found an interest in a man who had the ability to tell if someone was a demon or not…He was a monk of course, well in the line of monks."

"Wait…Temujin…"

"Was not her boyfriend…She used him to see if you were a demon after all. It took her awhile to pay for all the tickets for Japan and the movement issues. So she was trying to make it seem like she met someone else."

"…Damn it…All of this to see if I was a demon…"

"Well your grandmother on your mothers side had already knew what I was. She knew that I loved your mother though, she knew a demon could love. But she warned me that if we were to have a child, her daughter would go ballistic…"

"…Well how did you pull that off?"

"…Pull what off?"

"Well making her not see me as a demon…"

"…Honey…I love your mother very much and you should know that she loves you too…She's not your birth mother."

"W-What?"

"Yes, she is not. I was married to a women name Shiori. She was a beautiful and caring mother. She would have loved to be with you and watch you grow…"

"W-What happened…"

"Well…One day when I was at work…Your mother was staying home to watch you…A man had gotten wind of a demon near by and well…demon slayers tend to like to kill demons…Well anyways…She was attacked by a swarm of demon slayers. She hid you in time but could not escape herself. She died due to them. I came home and…"

"…That's so cruel…"

"It is. But I know she's proud of you."

"…Why isn't she here?"

"She's upstairs honey. She's in heaven…Right now this is the middle. This is where I was staying to tell you the truth behind things."

"…So am I actually dead."

"Yes, sadly you are… We are just roaming the earth as spirits for a bit…Until we wish to go into the light."

"…But father I…don't understand."

"What?"

"If you both were demons…how come I have feelings…How come I'm more open with my emotions than other demons?"

My father just smiled as he pointed at my heart. I gave him a confused look but he breathed in and than out.

"…Yune, you can feel because you have a heart. You are you, no matter if you are a human or demon. You still have emotions. You can still feel." My father told me as I felt a warm tear come down my cheek

I hugged him and leaned into him. He hugged me back and we stayed this way…I didn't want it to end…But at the same time, I did not wish to die. I did not want to find this light…

"Honey, if there is one thing I want you to remember…It is that your mother and I are always going to love you…And we are so proud of you. Of the women you have become." My father said as I smiled to him.

"…I missed you daddy." I told him

"I missed you too sweetheart. But you can not stay here anymore."

"What do you mean?"

"…Your friend…He wants you back…I can tell he needs you."

"M-My friend?"

"S-Sesshomaru was his name I believe."

"S…S-Sesshomaru…"

I heard something creek and I looked over to the right corner of the room. I saw the window slowly creep open. My father patted my back telling me to go to the window. I walked over to the window and looked through it. I saw Sesshomaru standing over my body that was laying on the castle floor. Kagome and the others were shocked at the fact that he had his sword the Tenseiga out and that the sword was being used on me. I felt the warm wind come through the window pulling me closer to the window.

I turned around to see my father right beside me. I smiled and he gave me a hug.

"I love you daddy." I told him as he smiled

"I love you too sweetie…" He said as I turned back to the window

I put my feet on the window ledge and jumped through the window. I looked up when I did and saw that my house was gone…one day daddy, I'll meet you again…in the after life. I felt my body get pulled down and I felt my spirit fall into my body.

I gasped as I breathed in the first air my lungs have had in about 30 minutes. I felt the pain that my body was in before I died…But only for a second because immediately my wounds closed up and healed. I sat up and sat on my knees. I put a hand to my head and shook my head.

I looked up to see Sesshomaru standing in front of me. I gave him a smirk as he just annoyingly turned away. He put his Tenseiga back into it's sheath. I stood up and looked over to Kagome and than. I saw Kagome crying and I smiled to her.

"Sorry for worrying you all…I'm okay now." I told them as they smiled as I looked back at Sesshomaru.

His left side was aiming towards me so he was going in the opposite direction that Inuyasha's group was in. He closed his eyes but I knew he was whispering to me.
"Follow me if you so wish to." He said as he walked down the street heading back towards Rin.

I blinked my eyes a couple of times but looked back at Kagome. I took a step towards her and I knew Sesshomaru was watching me. I ran up to her and I gave her a hug. She starred at me.

"Thank you for everything Kagome…I'll see you around." I said as I let her go and turned around to Sesshomaru.

He had his back turned to me and was still walking towards the forest. But I knew he was watching me and that he was going slower on purpose to see who I was going with. I ran up to him and walked beside him. We walked into the forest and that's the first time I noticed…That I had fallen for Sesshomaru.
