Vengeance of the soul
By: Haruka-chan
Strange behavior...Chapter 7
Rin and Sesshoumaru have been traveling for three days without almost any break.
Rin walked along with a tired body, and sleepy mind. Come on body just hold up, I can't let him think I'm weak thought Rin.
Sesshoumaru saw that Rin could hardly stay awake. These humans are so weak, they can't even go a week without sleeping thought Sesshoumaru.
Rin's eyes throated to close "No stay up, stay up!" Rin said sleepily under her breath.
Sesshoumaru finally stopped. "We will rest here, for the remaining of the night," he informed her.
Rin's eyes almost bugged out in surprise and happiness. "Finally I can rest" said Rin as she found herself a suitable place and laid down.
Sesshoumaru never seen any human go without resting as long as she did, but she was probably trained to do so. Sesshoumaru sniffed the air; Rin didn't smell like herself, she smelled slightly ill. Is she ill? I don't see her acting on it thought Sesshoumaru as he came near her body. Should I examine her, or just leave her alone. Why should you care if she is ill...but then again if she is ill then she will slow me down, I might as well catch it before it become worse thought Sesshoumaru.
Rin haven't sleep for three day and her body needed the well-deserved rest.
Sesshoumaru moved Rin on her back from her side position, and picked up her chin so he can sniff her under her neck, one of the places the smell was strongest, His eyes caught the cut that Ryuuku gave her, for some strange reason he felt angry about. He bend down and sniffed her, she smelled of herself coated with slight hint of something else. She smells...No do even let yourself go there! thought Sesshoumaru as he turned her head to the side to sniff the hallow of her neck. Sesshoumaru found that it was in his nature to lick something in order to find out if it's right or wrong. I have never done this before but if I must... Sesshoumaru's mind trailed of as he took a lick at the side of her neck. Rin gasped as if she was a wake, but didn't wake up. Should I continue? thought Sesshoumaru staring at Rin's face. For a moment he looked down again to where in the battle with Ryuuku she got cut on her neck, it made him mad that something has hurt her and is the same reason that made him angry with her. Sesshoumaru traced the now slow healing wound, and then bend down and licked it a few times. What is this feeling? he thought looking down at Rin sleeping. Sesshoumaru shook of all feeling and continued with his examination.
Rin couldn't believe what she saw; she was sitting on Sesshoumaru's lap again only they were embracing each other like lovers. He smiled at her and held her in his arms; She smiled back and then felt his tongue flicker across the side of her neck, earning a gasp of pleasure from her. She felt him trail small kisses down her neck before stopping and licking the center of her throat, she felt him lick her ear lobes and then softly growl in them, she busted out in laughter from his playfulness.
Is this how I want things to be? Do I want him to hold me? thought Rin.
Sesshoumaru licked Rin's earlobes for what reason he didn't know but did it anyway. He watched as a confused look came over her face, then a small smile. Strange how her emotions change so quickly...she taste nice...fine, but I can still detect a hint of illness thought Sesshoumaru. What other places is the scent strongest? thought Sesshoumaru before his eyes traveled to Rin's breast, the second place that the smell was the strongest. Skip that, I will not be thought of as hentai thought Sesshoumaru. You were trying to help her stay alive, that isn't hentai and other then that she's just a human girl. Who cares what she thinks thought Sesshoumaru's head. He looked at her unsure of himself.
Rin sat and watched as she saw that Sesshoumaru had suddenly pushed open her kimono and stuck a hand inside, Rin blushed at the sight. She moaned in respond.
Ohh! This is getting to a point where it shouldn't go stop! Wake up! thought Rin but the image went on as she saw herself being laid down as Sesshoumaru smiled devilishly and lower his head on her chest. She felt a light squeeze on her breast and heard herself moan and Sesshoumaru laugh.
He never laughs, but if it's anything like this, he sounds beautiful thought Rin.
Sesshoumaru smiled down at her and smile before he lowers his mouth on her breast.
Sesshoumaru saw that a blush appeared on her face is she awake? No, I know she's sleeping thought Sesshoumaru as he opened her kimono and for some reason his hands trembled. I can smell her through her inner kimono, no need to... thought Sesshoumaru. He bent his head down and sniffed the contour of her breast, and took a small lick again for what he didn't know, well he did it was temptation and lust.
"She smells fine, but that smell," said Sesshoumaru closing Rin's kimono.
Rin felt Sesshoumaru's mouth on her breast, and then on her lips. The taste of his lips was heaven, the moans that came out of her was unstoppable.
What is this wave of pleasure that I feel? thought Rin.
Sesshoumaru's tongue licked her bottom lip before, and she gasped letting his tongue to enter her mouth. He let out a small growl and let his mouth explore with in hers.
Sesshoumaru suddenly backed away from Rin's form. She is in Heat! thought Sesshoumaru taking in the intoxicating smell. I couldn't have done that, was this what I smelled before? thought Sesshoumaru. No it could be this thought Sesshoumaru. Then Rin's ankle came in to view. "That's it her ankle is weak from her fall, and because she has been using it without rest" said Sesshoumaru trying to keep his attention on her ankle then on her arousal. Rin moaned out loud making Sesshoumaru look at her. Who is she thinking of...no focus on her ankle thought Sesshoumaru as he picked up her ankle to look at it closely, but in doing so Rin's scent rose even more. I have to get the hell out of there, before I do something I will regret! Her scent is making me crazy thought Sesshoumaru getting up and looking down at a flushed Rin.
Rin felt Sesshoumaru's hand traveling down her body to her most intimate parts. Rin couldn't fight the moans and blush that was coming out from her.
"Your so beautiful" said Sesshoumaru.
Rin gasped in pleasure a simple line, as that was enough to make her happy.
"Not as beautiful as you are" she heard herself say.
Sesshoumaru bent down to kiss her lips once more.
Sesshoumaru traveled far from where Rin was sleeping, but not that far that he could hear her if there was any trouble. How could a simple human's arousal make me go mad that way? I wonder whom she was thinking of when she was...NO! Stop don't even think about it. Say it with me 'Humans are weak and lowly creature' come on you can do it! thought Sesshoumaru's head. "I have gone mad if I'm talking to myself" said Sesshoumaru. This isn't good. This human has to go. She awakens feelings in me that I don't permit myself to have...yet I want to be the one who she was thinking of. Why? thought Sesshoumaru as the cool night breeze help calm him down.
Rin moaned despite herself and lost herself in the sweet taste of his lips. She felt his hands massaging her bare thighs, moving up slowly between her legs. Rin cried out when he released her lips and threw her head back, as his fingers found her. Rin felt his hands gripping her hips as he moved his body on top of hers.
"Please..." she heard herself say before his lips captured her once more.
She gasped as he released her lips and whispered heatedly into her ear, "Are you sure Rin? Is this what you want?" he asked seductively.
Rin looked up into his eyes and whispered, "I want you Sesshoumaru." She felt him shift and kiss her deeply before...
Rin woke up with a jolt. No! No, this is not happening, I'm not having dreams about him mating with me! No! thought Rin as she touched her lips where he had planted their last kiss before he was about to enter her. Rin looked around to find that Sesshoumaru was nowhere near. Oh my gods what if he smelled my...Oh Gods! I wonder if I called out his name?!?! Thought Rin in a panic. Rin was to busy with her thoughts to hear that something was approaching her. Oh how will I ever live this up? I can't even face him now! thought Rin. "This is-" Rin didn't get to finish when she felt something behind her, before she could turn around the being pushed her down on to the ground and trapped her. Rin's eyes looked up slowly and saw that it was a Youkai of some sort and he was looking for a good time.
"Get off me!" yelled Rin.
"You smell very good for a human, especially with your heated body" said the Youkai sniffing her neck.
"Help me Sesshoumaru-sama, Ahhhh," yelled Rin as tears threatened to fall.
"No body is here to save you," said the Youkai pushing Rin's kimono open.
Sesshoumaru was standing around deep in thought when he heard Rin cry out for help. Damn it how could I have missed his smell?!? Thought Sesshoumaru as he rushed to her aid.
Rin cried and all that she could think of was Help me Sesshoumaru! The Youkai smiled down at her as it nipped at her neck and moved down towards her breast. "You taste good as you smell" said the Youkai smiling at Rin.
"No! Get off me! No!" yelled Rin still fighting against the Youkai. "Help me anyone please!" cried out Rin.
"There is no one who can hear you, and if they did who would dare to take me on?" asked the Youkai.
"How about me?" came a deep monotone voice.
The Youkai glared at Sesshoumaru and stood up to face him. "How dare you interpret me when I was in a heap of pleasure" said the Youkai.
Sesshoumaru narrowed his eyes on his face. The Youkai growled and run forward with sharp claws. Sesshoumaru moved out of the way with hardly any effort. "Too slow" said Sesshoumaru before he run towards the Youkai with his Dokkasou (Poison flower).
The Youkai smiled and stood there, as Sesshoumaru came towards him with his Dokkasou. Rin gasped He's a mirror Youkai too, which means. Sesshoumaru! thought Rin as she ran and grabbed her bow and arrows. I won't let you! I won't let him get hurt; he came for me now I will for him. I hope you burn in hell you disgusting Youkai thought Rin as she fix her arrow for the Youkai's eyes and lunched it.
Sesshoumaru wiped his Dokkasou at the Youkai's chest and suddenly a burning pain ripped through his own chest. A mirror, how could have I missed that? thought Sesshoumaru.
The Youkai started to laugh before he himself felt hot liquid trailing down his face. The Youkai turned to see that Rin stood there with a bow and arrow looking straight at him full of hate and anger.
"Die you disgusting Youkai!" yelled Rin before she shot another arrow for its head.
"You little bitch!" said the Youkai coming forward before it fell on the ground and disappeared.
Rin dropped her bow and arrow and stared up at Sesshoumaru, her eyes traveled down to his face, and he saw the claw mark on his perfect skin then her eyes went to his chest where it there was blood spreading fast.
Sesshoumaru land on the ground gracefully, and saw Rin walk slowly up to him with her face hard with hardly any emotions.
He's hurt. I have to help him thought Rin.
He watched as she came to stand next to him and then reach up for his face and clean of the blood with her hands.
"You are hurt sit so I can clean your wound" said Rin flatly.
She's worried about my wounds while she was nearly tarnished thought Sesshoumaru surprised. Sesshoumaru sat down as she had told him to, why he didn't know. It wasn't like he really needed. Rin came back with her bag and started to take several things out.
"Open...take of your..." Rin drifted off.
Sesshoumaru pushed his armor down a bit and opened the top part of his Hakama for her. Rin looked around for a cloth when she found none she ripped the side of her kimono and drenched it in the herbal water.
"It'll sting but I'm sure you can take it," said Rin as she placed the cloth over his wound and started to pat it clean.
Sesshoumaru didn't feel a thing he could only watch as she worked her eyes gave away her hard face. She was hurt and hurt bad.
Rin softly cleaned the wound as her hands slightly brush against his skin. His skin is so soft... thought Rin. She wanted to bandage his wound but it seems she ran out of all the cloth. She skimmed through her bag and her hand brush against the soft fabric of Saki's colors. Rin slowly pulled it out.
"Saki..." she whispered.
Sesshoumaru saw the pain that now appeared on her face. Rin shook her head and dumped some more herbal mix on the red fabric and then slowly rose to her knees to tie the cloth around Sesshoumaru's chest. He's skin brushed against hers, she worked slowly and tied the cloth around his chest.
"Please be careful the next time..." started to Rin.
Sesshoumaru felt shocked inside She was worried about me? But Why? he thought as he saw her hand ball in to a fist on her lap.
"All I have left is you, my family, village, and friends have been taken from me. I don't want to take on this wretched life of my own...I do have people waiting for me, and I will go back to them eventually but just for now please take care of yourself" whispered Rin.
Sesshoumaru watched as tears fell from the corner of her eyes, she kept her eyes away from him. "Why did you give me this cloth that mean so much to you?" asked Sesshoumaru touching the fabric around his chest.
"When I was wounded with pain someone special gave that to me, to give me hope. I'm giving it to you now because your hurt, it's kind of binding of people, and you have become special to me as the person that gave that to me" said Rin Your my hope now thought Rin with a small smile.
My mother gave this to me because she cared and now I'm giving this to you because I like you Mika's word floated through her mind.
I care... thought Rin
Sesshoumaru didn't understand this human girl at all, She was willing to give up something so special to her just for him? But why? Sesshoumaru didn't know what to do or say for the first time in his life. Rin smiled a then reached up and touched his cheek.
"You cut it's...gone" She said softly.
"I heal fast," said Sesshoumaru liking the feel of her hand on his face.
Rin didn't remove her hand from his face, but slowly caressed so beautiful... thought Rin.
Sesshoumaru didn't understand what it was but he felt warm...felt something he haven't felt since his father passed away...love.
What you think you doing?!? He probably thinks your crazy! thought Rin as she removed her hand quickly from his face.
Sesshoumaru felt disappointed that she had done that but he was confused about his feelings at the moment to complain.
Rin smiled this is it...I'm home, my life beings starting now...I'll have him to care for...to be cared by thought Rin.
Sesshoumaru watched her smile she seemed to be having good thoughts, and then he remembered about her ankle. "Were you hurt?" he asked.
"Um...no not that I know off" said Rin checking herself.
"Your ankle is still weak maybe if you should rest more" said Sesshoumaru.
"No, I don't want to slow you down I can walk" said Rin.
Sesshoumaru narrowed his eyes on her It pains her yet she doesn't want to slow me down? thought Sesshoumaru.
He cares about my ankle? He really cares? thought Rin as her heart jumped. "We should get going. Naraku is waiting to be killed," said Rin standing up.
Sesshoumaru made no gesture of moving he sat there staring at the ground.
"Sesshoumaru-sama?" asked Rin bending down to look at his face.
Sesshoumaru didn't say anything or move.
Rin crouched down and stared at him "Are you ok?" she asked.
Sesshoumaru looked at her face she was worried about him again, she cared a little too much, and the thing that scared him was that maybe he cared to. Sesshoumaru finally stood up with Rin following after him.
Rin looked at him uncertain is he feeling ok? thought Rin.
Sesshoumaru watched Rin look at him strangely before crouching down to pick her things up, he watched as she carefully put all her things away in the small bag and then stand up again.
"Let's go," said Rin starting to walk ahead.
Sesshoumaru followed after, didn't take long for him to catch up. Rin felt Sesshoumaru's shoulder brush against hers slightly sending shivers down her spine.
She stopped and felt him stop behind her to Why is he stopping? He's acting strange thought Rin.
Sesshoumaru couldn't explain his actions himself as one arm warped around Rin's waist and slowly brought her close to him. Rin held her breath as he pulled her closer to him, before she felt she was being lifted up.
"What are you doing?" asked Rin.
"Your still weak from your fall, it will be best if you don't walk for a while" said Sesshoumaru.
"I can walk you don't have to carry me" said Rin.
Sesshoumaru ignored her and kept on walking. Rin sighed and warped her arms around his neck.
Unknown to both of them Jaken had watched the whole event. Lord Sesshoumaru is he falling in love with the human? NO impossible he couldn't! thought Jaken. "This news that I got back from the palace is sure to make him change his mind," said Jaken with a smile, running to catch up to the Youkai lord.
Sesshoumaru heard Rin's breath go steady and instantly knew she had fallen asleep. Her head on his chest, hand locked behind his neck, softly brushing against his skin. Her breath warming his chest. Why is it that she make me feel strange...make me care for her...want to hold her...to feel her thought Sesshoumaru.
"Lord Sesshoumaru please wait for me," yelled an out of breath Jaken.
Sesshoumaru stopped for Jaken to catch up. "What news have you brought Jaken?" asked Sesshoumaru.
"Lord Sesshoumaru, there is young Youkai who wants to claim your land, and he has a young Youkai maiden who claims to be your fiancé. She has written document of it," said Jaken.
Sesshoumaru narrowed his eyes on Jaken. I have a fiancé? And some Youkai wants to claim my land? What game is this? thought Sesshoumaru as his eyes drifted to the sleeping Rin. "Jaken were leaving to the palace I shall see this through once and for all," said Sesshoumaru.
"Yes, lord Sesshoumaru. What about the girl, are you going to leave her?" asked Jaken gesturing towards Rin.
Sesshoumaru didn't say anything just kept walking.
I guess that is a no thought Jaken and followed after Sesshoumaru.
