Emptiness
Rin and Jenna decided to do some sketching while they watched the storm. Jenna jumped when Jaken stormed into the room. The doors slamming open. "What is it Jaken?" Lord Sesshomaru demanded, quite annoyed by the way he ran in. He was panting holding his stick. "Kagome...she's in trouble..." Jaken panted, "What?" Jenna demanded standing up. "Where is she?" Jenna demanded, "By the sea" Jaken said pointing in a direction. Without delay Jenna was out of the room, she had a horse saddled and was on it when Lord Sesshomaru caught up to her. "Jenna get off the horse" Lord Sesshomaru told her. "No, Kagome needs me. Now either grab one and come along or wait here!" Jenna yelled giving the mustang a sharp touch of her heels as they flew out of the stables, kicking mud as they went. Lord Sesshomaru growled, "Jaken stay here with Rin!" Lord Sesshomaru yelled grabbing his own horse and chasing after her.
"She is quite unique" Jaken said, "haven't seen Lord Sesshomaru that infatuated in a long time." Rin smiled and went back into the house. Lord Sesshomaru finally caught up to Jenna. "At least slow down" Lord Sesshomaru said as rain pelted against them. "No!" Jenna yelled making the mustang run faster. Jenna's eyes widened as lighting filled the night sky, blinding her for a second by the brightness. In another flash the horse reared up seeing they were on a cliff face. Screaming Jenna fell off the scared horse as thunder ripped across the skies. Her back slammed into the mud hard catching a hoof into her stomach. Screaming out in pain she rolled over away from the horse. Instantly Lord Sesshomaru was at her side as more thunder ripped through scaring the horses enough that they ran into the forest still bucking.
"Are you all right?" Lord Sesshomaru yelled, quickly checking her. Jenna held her bleeding stomach screaming. Lord Sesshomaru's eyes widened in fear at seeing all the blood. He had his arms wrapped around her tightly lifting her off the ground. A blue sphere surrounded them flying through the air. They landed at the castle. Jenna's screams echoed off the walls as Lord Sesshomaru rushed her to her room. Rin quickly chased after them. A couple women as well ran into the room.
They gently shoved Lord Sesshomaru out of the room. Lord Sesshomaru and Jaken paced outside the room. After an half an hour Jenna had stopped screaming, two hours later they women were leaving the room. All except Rin. "How is she?" Lord Sesshomaru demanded from the eldest woman. She was quite elderly but had a kind face. "Lady Jenna is well my lord. She'll be up and walking tomorrow." The old lady smiled kindly. "And the child?" Lord Sesshomaru asked, he had doubts that the baby would be able to survive that, all that blood. The lady made a sad face at having to report on that news. "I apologize my lord, the baby was lost. But she will be able to try again on her next heat. Though the next time she is with child, she will have to be much more careful." The old woman said, Lord Sesshomaru sighed dismissing the old woman.
He would never admit it to anyone, but he was growing quite fond of the idea of being a father. Sighing he entered the room, Jenna was sleeping in bed, Rin sitting on the bed with her braiding her hair. Rin looked up at him entering. She immediately stood up and ran over to him. "She wanted me to tell you Lord Sesshomaru that she's deeply sorry. She kept screaming and crying so they knocked her out. She should be awake in the morning." Rin told him, Lord Sesshomaru nodded. "Keep her safe Rin. I'm putting you in charge of her" Lord Sesshomaru said kissing Jenna softly. "Where are you going my lord?" Rin asked, "To help this Kagome. Jenna almost died getting to her." Lord Sesshomaru said taking Jaken and leaving the house.
Jenna woke up the next morning in tears. She was quite upset that Lord Sesshomaru had left. She calmed down slightly when Rin told her why but it still didn't help. Jenna had gotten used to the idea of the baby, she wanted the baby. True she could always get pregnant again but she wanted that specific baby and she'd never have it. Rin didn't know what to do, she tried cheering her up, tried bringing her food. Rin couldn't even get her out of bed. Rin was relieved when Lord Sesshomaru came home. She even met him outside Jenna's room. "How is she?" Lord Sesshomaru demanded, "She's quite upset. I haven't been able to get her out of bed. She keeps crying all the time. She's all torn up about this my lord."
Rin quickly gushed, Lord Sesshomaru raised an eyebrow at her. "Well then I shall take care of that." Lord Sesshomaru said brushing past Rin closing the door behind him. Lord Sesshomaru sighed at seeing Jenna curled up in the fetal position, rolled away from the sunlight. A pillow over her head as she tear up, she didn't want Lord Sesshomaru to see her like this. He sat down on the bed next to her, gently peeling the pillow off of her face. Laying it down next to her he gently brushed her hair from her face. "How is Kagome?" Jenna asked sniffling. "She's fine, it all worked out." Lord Sesshomaru said, "Come on, let's get you a quick bathe." Lord Sesshomaru said standing up only for Jenna to shake her head no. He sighed, "You're getting one whether you like it or not." He told her, she glared at him grabbing a hold of the blankets. "That's not going to help you." Lord Sesshomaru said picking her up tossing her over his shoulder. Easily ripping the blankets out of her hands. "Oh to bad, maybe if you had eaten you'd have the strength to fight with me." Lord Sesshomaru told her walking into the bathroom.
"Put me down!" Jenna yelled kicking and screaming. Lord Sesshomaru easily tossed her towards the water. Jenna grabbed a hold of him pulling him in with her. Thankfully he already had his swords and armor off. Grumbling Lord Sesshomaru stood up, completely soaked from head to toe. Lord Sesshomaru growled at Jenna slightly. He was not happy. "It's your fault!" She yelled at him diving trying to get away from him and out of the water. "No you don't!" Lord Sesshomaru yelled chasing after her. Grabbing her waist he pulled her back into the water and up against him. "You're are bathing whether you like it or not!" He yelled at her, pinning her arms at her waist. She growled dangerously at him. "Leave me alone!" She yelled at him, tears pouring down her cheeks. Lord Sesshomaru turned her around wrapping his arms around her, rocking her against him. "I know, Jenna I know. I wanted that baby too." He said quietly. "No you didn't! You left me as soon as you found out I wasn't carrying anymore! You don't care about me!" Jenna yelled slamming her hands against his chest.
He pulled her away from him, his hands clamped tightly around her arms shaking her. "What did you just say?" He growled dangerously. "I wanted that child! The only reason I left was to help your precious Kagome. I was so happy that you were carrying! Don't you dare tell me that I didn't care for you or the child!" Lord Sesshomaru yelled at her shaking her violently. "Don't you dare tell me that I don't care!" He growled at her. "Sesshomaru" Jenna completely broke down wrapping her arms around his waist and shaking violently from the tears. He sighed wrapping his arms around her, "It's all right Jenna. I know, I know." Lord Sesshomaru whispered softly cradling her against him.
He sat down on one of the rocks, pulling Jenna down onto his lap letting the warm water calm her down. "I feel empty, so alone. I hate this!" Jenna cried into Lord Sesshomaru's chest, he kissed the top of her head. "Maybe it just wasn't meant to be yet Jenna, when your next heat comes we'll try again." Lord Sesshomaru told her, "I know but I don't want another child, I want that child!" Jenna said wiping the tears away. "I do too Jenna, but maybe we weren't meant to have that one." Lord Sesshomaru told her, Jenna nodded. She felt embarassed and ashamed for her behavior. She blushed at seeing Lord Sesshomaru still fully clothes but soaked. Jenna nodded and slid out of Lord Sesshomaru's embrace. "Okay I'll bathe then." Jenna smiled turning away from him. Lord Sesshomaru smiled at the slight blush on her cheeks. "Alright" Lord Sesshomaru said climbing out of the bath.
Jenna smiled slightly at Lord Sesshomaru telling her that he cared for her deeply and wanting to have a child with her. Blushing she took her clothes off and threw them to the side of the room and took her time in the bath. Once out of the bath she put on a light pink kimono with flowers on it and walked downstairs to get some food. She found Rin and the two sat outside and snacked on some ice cream. "So you're feeling much better today Lady Jenna?" Jaken asked, Jenna laughed "JAKEN!" Rin yelled pointing her spoon dangerously at him. Jenna laughed, "It's all right guys, I'm fine." Jenna told them smiling it off going back to her bowl of ice cream.
