Finding the Place Where We Belong

Chapter Thirty Seven: Days Pass On By

So, Sesshomaru used Tenseiga to bring back Sara. We were at the part, no? No. We last left off where Rebecca had the talk with her father but we shall not start there today. Today we will start off with Inuyasha and the others.

When the messengers of the underworld were slain, Inuyasha could hear the faint beating of Sara's heart. She didn't make any movement but he could see that she was now breathing as her heart beated. Sesshomaru sheathed Tenseiga and without a word, began to walk away from the group with Jaken following him, a question look planted on his hideous face.

For the next three days, Sara didn't budge or regain consciousness. She continued to breathe and all that crap to maintain living but she never opened her eyes or murmured a word. Inuyasha carried her in his arms at all times, when he was awake and when he was sleeping. The group of Inuyasha's traveling companions accompanied him as they traveled towards Kaede's village. During that time, something strange was occurring with Sara's body as it recuperated. Gradually, centimeter by centimeter, two diminutive ookami ears began to emerge on the top of her head as her human ones began to withdraw.

The wind blew Rebecca's brown hair in her face as she sat on the wood flooring beside the garden. She was looking up at the sky, thinking about what she had been told. Her father had come up with a new scheme and this time he was convinced that it would be successful. Kanna walked up to Rebecca with her mirror in her hands. Rebecca turned and looked at her. "What is it, Kanna?"

"Rebecca, Naraku is using you, is he not? Why do you continue to stay here? Are you like Kagura and I, who can not leave the castle?" Kanna asked in her adolescent voice. Rebecca stood up and looked down at Kanna. She was essentially like a younger sister though she didn't aggravate her like a younger sister would. The once kitsune sighed and placed a hand on the reincarnation of her father's shoulder.

"Kanna, if you must know, I'm being punished so I do not recommend that you continue to talk to me about such things unless you want to end up destroyed by my father. But I may I ask, what is my father planning? Why is it that he is so convinced that he will be able to slaughter Inuyasha with this plan of his?" Rebecca curiously asked Kanna. She just remained silent for a moment, almost certainly thinking if she should tell her what the plan was or not. Kanna secretly sighed then looked up at Rebecca.

"The plan is not to kill just Inuyasha. It is to kill Sesshomaru as well."

"Lord Sesshomaru, why did you use Tenseiga to revive Inuyasha's woman?" Jaken asked as he and Sesshomaru walked through a forest heading out of the Western Lands. Rin had been left behind at Sesshomaru's castle where the other servants were watching over her. Sesshomaru did not answer him just as all the other times the toad youkai had asked the very same question. Jaken sighed and just dropped the subject. "My Lord, could you at least tell me where we are going now?"

"Jaken, I do not have to respond to your insignificant questions. If you do not discontinue asking questions, I will be required to slice you in half with Tokijin." Sesshomaru told him. (Does that sound like something that Sesshomaru would say? ::ponders::) Jaken gulped and instantaneously went quiet keeping all the questions that he wanted to ask Sesshomaru to himself. Sesshomaru ignored the little toad youkai that he used as a useless vassal. He was too busy thinking to himself to deal with his questions though they brought up some fascinating prospects.

Why did he exactly help his younger half brother when he could have effortlessly just walked away and played no part in reviving the once ookami hanyou? And where was this place that he heading towards? He couldn't somewhat explain it but something was urging him to head towards the east. He has been traveling for about two days now, in the direction of the east hoping that he could find what was exactly calling out to him. But in those two days, there was no avail. Sesshomaru inwardly sighed and stopped for a second. Jaken, not paying attention to where he was going, almost ran into him but stopped himself a few inches from contact. "What is it, My Lord?"

"The half breed is close."

Inuyasha laid Sara down on a futon in Kaede's hut and Kaede instantly went to work on seeing if there was something the matter with her. Unexpectedly, Sara began to mutter incoherent sentences. (Sounds like me! ) Inuyasha hurriedly pushed Kaede out of the way and kneeled down beside her. Her human ears, which once resided on the side of her head, were now gone but two ookami ears could plainly be seen placed on the top of her head. "Sara?"

".....Inu....yasha.....ai....shiteru....Don't....DON'T LEAVE ME!!!" Sara suddenly yelled as she sat straight up with her eyes opened. She was breathing hard and there was sweat trickling down her face. Everyone else in the hut just stared at her. Sara gasped in surprise when she felt Inuyasha place a hand on her shoulder. She turned and looked at him. "Inuyasha?"

End of Chapter Thirty Seven

Yes, I know that this chapter was short but this is all that I could write when I'm bored and almost asleep. It will take me even longer now to update since I just broke my second keyboard in like two months. -.-' Anyways, I hope that you enjoy this last installment of FTPWWB and just to tell you, you no longer need to be on the look out for Hiei since he was returned to me earlier this week. THANKS AND PLEASE, PLEASE REVIEW!!!
