Chapter 37

Bravery and A Quest for Life

Tiffany was blubbering with tears streaming down her face and into he nappy hair. She was a mess. You leaned down and whispered,

"We'll be fine. We will find a way out, so don't worry. Okay?" She wiped her tears away and put on a fake smile,

"Okay, I'll try not to worry." You cradled her until her tears stopped flowing.

Sesshomaru's POV:

I smiled, 'She sure does act like a mother to her little sister.' I sighed. 'She will be a perfect mother to our children, though... they will be half-breeds, but I don't want anyone but her so it won't matter.' I smirked, inwardly.

"Sesshomaru." Her voice snapped me out of my thoughts.

Your POV:

You stood and observed the area. You looked at the skeleton. It was the only thing out of place. It almost looked fake, when you got close. You closed your eyes and thought what the people did when they were in this kind of situation. 'They observed the walls.' You smirked and decided to do knock on the walls and see if one sounded hollow, so Sesshomaru could break it open.

You knocked on all of the walls and one wall did sound hollow, like a door. You looked at the wall and felt it, but you couldn't figure out how to open it and you scratched out having Sesshomaru break it in because it was a thick wall and you didn't want Sesshomaru hurt. You looked at the skeleton again. You suddenly felt an urge to touch it. You poked its forehead. You heard something move and then a weird sound. You looked around the room, but couldn't pinpoint anything different. Tiffany stood,

"Look over there!" She pointed to the other end of the room, opposite of where the collapsed door was. Part of the wall was missing, like a large doorway. You smirked, "Sesshomaru." It was like you snapped him out of his thoughts. You pointed to the doorway. He walked over to you,

"What happened?" You laugh,

"I poked the skeleton and the wall went away." He looks at you, strangely, then sighs, "Let's go." He walks away and you and Tiffany follow him close behind.

You follow him into the dark abyss, not being able to see anything. A small light at the end of the darkness, slowly becomes increasingly larger as you walked.

The light becomes a bedroom. A very nice and exquisite bedroom. The silver haired ghost from before, sits in a chair next to the bed. He lifts his head,

"I was wondering when you were going to get here, Lord Sesshomaru. I am quite surprised that you took so long. You have been here before, I might add." Sesshomaru speaks,

"I've never been to this castle... Who are you?" The silver haired man chuckles,

"I suppose you don't remember me. After all, you were just a child." Sesshomaru growls, "Impossible." The silver haired ghost laughs,

"My name is Yue. I was Leviathans right hand, before her death." You found the name familiar, but you couldn't put your finger on it. Sesshomaru glared at Yue,

"What is it that you want?" Yue smirked,

"I told you before." Sesshomaru was losing his temper,

"What did you mean by 'it concerns her life.'?" Yue narrows his eyes,

"Sesshomaru do you care for her?" Sesshomaru looks back at you and says,

"That is none of your concern. Why?" Yue sighs,

"If something doesn't change and soon, she will perish." Sesshomaru gives Yue a death glare,

"Why is that?" Yue chuckles,

"That Sesshomaru, you will need to find out on your own." Sesshomaru sighs,

"Tell me what I need to do then." Yue shakes his head,

"I am not allowed to tell you the details, but I can tell you that she will perish if you don't love her because I can see that she loves you, very much." Sesshomaru sighs,

"I see. Then we must leave then." Yue sighs,

"Indeed you do, but please take the elevator. You will encounter more revenants than necessary if you don't." Sesshomaru nods and walks out the door with Tiffany close behind. You look at Yue's eyes before you leave. 'He's crying. I wonder what for?' He looks to you and smiles. He whispers,

I wish you luck on your journey." You ask,

"What journey?" He disappears and his voice echoes through the room,

"For love."

You follow Sesshomaru into the dark abyss and into a door that you didn't notice before. He touches something on the wall and the door closes. You feel movement downward and the door opens. Sesshomaru steps out and you follow behind. You were back in the living room, next to the fireplace. Sesshomaru walks out the door, into the front lawn. Wait lawn? There were flowers everywhere as well as trees. The dessert land was gone. Tiffany whispers in your ear,

"Who was that?" You giggle,

"I don't know." You smile,

"Sesshomaru?" He sighs,

"What?" You giggle,

"Why is the land no longer barren? I thought the land will only be restored if Leviathans successor becomes known." He says,

"I don't know." He looks at you for a moment and asks,
"Why are you not afraid?"
You giggle,
"Afraid of what?"
Sesshomaru sighs,
"That man said that you were going to die. Are you not afraid to die?"
You laugh,
"No, I am not afraid." Sesshomaru smirks,
"Why is that?" You kiss him on the cheek,
"Because I know that you won't allow me to die."
You wink and he blushes. Tiffany complains,

"I'm hungry." Your stomach mummers,

"So am I." Sesshomaru growls,

"When we get to the castle." You sigh,

"But I'm hungry now." Tiffany laughs. Sesshomaru sighs,

"Fine."
