My first two reviews! Yay! Oh, and I forgot to put a disclaimer so here is
one:
I do not own Inu-Yasha and Co. characters but my secret army of monkey ninjas will fix that very, very soon. MMMMUAHAAHAAAAHAAA *coughs and takes sip of water* HAAAAHAAAHAAA!
However, I do own Eieckichi. I used one idea from "Inu-Yasha's 18th" Just so you know. Um..bye bye.
Chapter Two:
Say A Prayer; Enter InuYasha and Co!
The next morning, Sesshomaru was awoken by Eieckichi's mumbles. He opened his eyes and listened to her words. They seemed to be the words she had said to her brother and Sesshomaru the day before.
"Brother.please.stop killing them.please.sir youkai.can I do.repayment.your noble deed.lowly hanyou.myself," her strained voice said. Sesshomaru grew uneasy knowing the weak hanyou girl was dreaming of him.
"Rin said her name last night. Eieckichi was it? Humph." He thought, trying to shake the thought from his head.
Eieckichi's clothes were slashed and filled with rips.
"From her brother no doubt. I am sure Inu-Yasha's friends shall take care of that." Said Sesshomaru to himself. He looked her over, still trying to shake the new feeling that had gripped him. Eieckichi's kimono had originally been what looked to be green, with a reed pattern, but it had been stained and blotched with blood.
The most serious rips and tears were placed around her shoulder and color of the kimono. One on her left shoulder where a gash was, one near her upper chest area, where another cut was also placed. Once his eyes fell on this large rip, Sesshomaru's face grew unusually warm. He had felt this once before on his eighteenth birthday, when it was time for a youkai to choose their mate. (I used the idea from another fan fiction called "Inu- Yasha's 18th") But that one youkai woman had long since been killed and Sesshomaru felt nothing for her anymore or any other female youkai.
But he was not going to be his father. He would not fall for a human, even though the girl was only a hanyou. Rin awoke, and rushed to Eieckichi's side, mopping her brow. Sesshomaru found in quite unsettling that Rin kept her mouth shut when Sesshomaru killed anyone that stood in his way, human or otherwise, yet she had forbade him from killing this girl.
Eieckichi's ears twitched as Rin cleaned the blood from them. They looked to be the ears of not a dog, like Inu-Yasha's, but those of a wolf. The hanyou also had claws and fangs like that of a dog youkai, but they seemed to be more of a wolfs. And a black tail was on the girl's backside. Her ears were also back, but her hair was brown and cut unevenly short. As though someone had forced it off her to have it cut and she struggled.
Sesshomaru turned his back and walked to a small stream by the campsite. Dipping his hand into the water, he splashed it on his face.
"Jaken. Come." He called. The little toad youkai ran up to his master.
"What is it me lord?" Asked Jaken.
"We shall seek Inu-Yasha today." Said Sesshomaru. "We shall leave the girl with them. Understand? You must not breathe a word of this to Rin, do you understand?"
"Yes me lord." Said Jaken.
"Go wake the dragon." Jaken nodded and hurried to do what Sesshomaru bade him. Sesshomaru followed him and saw Eieckichi teaching Rin a game.
"Now, clap your hands. Good! Then, clap them against mine!"
"Why are you wasting time teaching Rin a stupid game?" said Sesshomaru. Eieckichi pulled her hands away and placed them in her lap.
"Sir Youkai, I thought.I thought.I would teach her the game, since she is but a child, and do not children need to play?" said Eieckichi.
Sesshomaru stared at her for a moment. He had indeed forgotten that human children liked to play. Rin had often run from Jaken's lessons, and Jaken kept an eye on her, but Sesshomaru had not known what Rin did when Jaken found it impossible to teach.
"Rin, we are going on a trip. Get on." Said Sesshomaru. Rin hopped onto the neck of the first head, and Sesshomaru walked over to Eieckichi. Taking her by the collar of her kimono, Sesshomaru lifted her onto the other neck of the dragon. Jaken jumped behind her, and steadied her with his little claws. The dragon lifted into the air, and Sesshomaru found Inu- Yasha's scent. At first, it was very weak, but as they went on, it grew stronger.
At one point, Eieckichi lifted her head, and sniffed the air. She looked over at Sesshomaru and asked:
"Sir Youkai? May I ask what is that scent? It smells like another hany,"
"Keep quiet!" snapped Sesshomaru, cutting her off. Eieckichi put her head down again, and closed her eyes. Finally, Sesshomaru spotted four figures walking along the path. Taking Eieckichi by the arm, Sesshomaru leapt down in front of the group.
"SESSHOMARU!" grasped Inu-Yasha. He unsheathed his sword, the Tetsusaiga.
"Put that away Inu-Yasha. I shall get to that later. I have brought you a present." Said Sesshomaru. He thrust Eieckichi forward and she fell at Inu-Yasha's feet. He looked very shocked.
"How did you kidnap a hanyou girl!?" he asked.
"Me? Kidnap a worthless hanyou? Please. I do not have to explain myself to you!" snapped Sesshomaru. "Now that you have her, I shall be taking the Tetsusaiga."
"Kagome, take her. I will get rid of Sesshomaru!" called Inu-Yasha. Kagome rushed forward with the monk, Miroku and they helped Eieckichi away from the fight.
"Who are you, and why did Sesshomaru have you?" asked the demon hunter, Sango.
"I.I.my brother destroyed my village.sir youkai was going to kill me.but that human girl he protects asked him not too.and I find myself here." mumbled Eieckichi, then finally she passed out.
"Well.that was confusing." Said Miroku.
"How is Inu-Yasha faring?" asked Shippo, jumping onto Kagome's shoulder. Just at that moment, Inu-Yasha stumbled back over to them.
"Well.he's gone.for now. So, what's the deal with her?" asked Inu- Yasha, sitting down Indian-style next to Kagome.
"Something about her village, a brother, Sesshomaru wanting to kill her but not doing so because of that little girl that follows him then he dropped her off here." Said Sango.
"That's right!" peeped Shippo.
"Hm.well. There is a great deal of blood on her. And not all of it is hers." said Inu-Yasha, staring down at the hanyou.
"Do you think she is lying?" asked Kagome.
"I don't know. But I think we should be careful."
"Then lets put that aside and get her wounds tended to." Said Sango.
"Mother.Haku, please.don't hurt Mother.AHHH!" cried Eieckichi as her eyes flew open. She immediately tried to sit up. A hand forced her down.
"You need to stay where you are Miss." Said Miroku.
"W-who are you? How did I get here? Where is Rin? And sir youkai?" asked Eieckichi.
"Sir Youkai? Oh. You must mean Sesshomaru. Do not fret. You are far away from them now." Said Miroku. "Kagome! Sango! She is awake!"
Inu-Yasha walked over to them followed by Sango and Shippo on Kagome's shoulder.
"Who are all of you?" asked Eieckichi.
"Don't you remember anything?" asked Kagome.
"Remember what?" questioned the confused female hanyou.
"My brother dumped you on us." Said Inu-Yasha. His voice was unusually quiet.
"Inu-Yasha! Don't make it sound so harsh!" snapped Kagome.
"But that.is the truth." said Eieckichi. "If you are a hanyou.you really have no place and people want to get rid of you. They don't care if you live or die."
There was a stunned silence. Eieckichi lifted the sleeve of her kimono. There were scars on her arm.
"Where did you get those?" asked Kagome in a strained voice.
"Is it that much of a surprise? From my village. My mother received many trying to protect me. I would have many more if it weren't for her. And.my bastard of a brother.he killed her." Eieckichi's voice was strained with sorrow and anger. Her hands tightened on the blanket she was under.
Inu-Yasha looked down at the hanyou. He could feel the pain as well.
"That is so horrible!" said Kagome with disgust. "How can people do that? You have human blood in you. Doesn't that count for something?"
"No. It's the way it is. We have youkai blood in us also and that is much more powerful than human blood. Why do you think that humans fear us? And youkais mock us because of the human blood." Said Inu-Yasha with fury in his voice. Then.there was an eerie silence.
"It's best we all get some rest." Said Sango. "We have all had a long day."
"Tomorrow.can you please take me to my village? I must bury them.all of them." whispered Eieckichi.
"Why? Why would you want to bury the people that have mocked you? Hurt you? They don't deserve it. Leave them there to rot." Said Inu-Yasha.
"I do not know what happened to you.but there were some in my village that were nice to me. I owe them at least to give them a proper burial." Said Eieckichi. She closed her eyes in exhaustion and fell asleep again.
"Did you have no one like that Inu-Yasha?" asked Kagome.
"No!" snapped Inu-Yasha harshly. He stormed off.
The next morning, the group went to Eieckichi's destroyed village. There were few intact bodies to bury, for the rest had been burnt in the fire from Eieckichi's brother, Haku. Eieckichi knelt weakly by every grave and said a prayer for each villager.
"Please, go in peace." She thought.
See the button down there? See it? Do ya do ya do ya? PUSH THE BUTTON! I know everyone says don't push the button, but really.push the button.
I do not own Inu-Yasha and Co. characters but my secret army of monkey ninjas will fix that very, very soon. MMMMUAHAAHAAAAHAAA *coughs and takes sip of water* HAAAAHAAAHAAA!
