Rin shook her head and pulled away breathing heavily. "No..." she said pulling away and backing away until she hit the cold walls of the cave. "I can't do it...I can't take you away" she said. Sesshoumaru stepped closer to her. "Rin..." he said. "Lady Sonomi and your land needs you" she said. Sesshoumaru stopped as he stared at her. How ironic that he had lived his life up until now protecting his land, and chasing after the Tesusagia, but now he was willing to give it all up. "Your not taking away anything from..." he started, but then realized she was taking away everything from him. "I won't let you push me away" he said once again coming close. "Well, I will push you away, I have things I have to do, and I don't want you in it" she said. "You don't have a choice, the only way you can stop me from coming along is by killing me" he said. Rin gasped was he really suggesting it? No way! Sesshoumaru saw the shock written on her face, but what he didn't expect was...

****************************************************************************

Was for her to reach up and slap him. He looked at her with fierce eyes, but her face held nothing but pain and determination. "Fine" he heard her say. "Fine what?" he asked. "I will fight you..." she said. Sesshoumaru stood there in utter shock. "Rin..." he started. "I will always remember what you did for me, but I can't do it, I can't..." said Rin as she shank to her knees. The cool night air blowing making her already cold body even more cooler. Sesshoumaru sensed this crouched down to look at her face which was filled so much pain that he thought he was looking at an already dying person. But then again the truth was she was half dead. "Don't make me choose" she whispered. "I will not let you...don't Rin" said Sesshoumaru. "Don't What!?! Sesshoumaru-sama I'm tired of innocent people suffering for me! That guard was going to lose this mate if he didn't kidnapped me!" yelled Rin. "Rin what are you saying?" asked Sesshoumaru. "Don't you get it?!? Lady Sonomi wanted me out of the picture" said Rin as the hurt tears poured down her face. "I'm can't take it Sesshoumaru-sama...I can't take it" she whispered as the cavern floor filled with distilled tears. Sesshoumaru finally found that everything fit together. "Rin" he said. "No! Why are you so stubborn?!? Why can't you just be like when I met you?" she asked. Sesshoumaru stared at her. This wasn't the Rin that he knew, this wasn't like her.

"We should go back...the other will worry about you" he said coldly. "Will they?" asked Rin. Sesshoumaru didn't say anything. Rin let out a painful chuckle. "I don't know what's real any more. It's as if everyone is trying to get rid of me" she whispered. "What about the people your trying to get rid of" asked Sesshoumaru. "I guess your right I'm as bad as the others aren't I? I kill, just as they do, I take lives...no matter what it is a Youkai or a human" she whispered as she pulled her keens to her chest and hid he face. "I'm a killer" she said. "No...you do what you do to survive" said Sesshoumaru. "Doesn't matter, it's still taking life...who am I to take a life?" she asked. "So you would rather die then take a life?" asked Sesshoumaru. "Doesn't matter if I die...what do I have to live for?" she asked. Sesshoumaru was now getting uneasy, and he also sensed that Rin's breathing was coming in shorts. "I wonder what my sister would say to me now, she would probably me angry with me" she said. Sesshoumaru moved towards her. "Rin?" he asked. "My hands...how could I?..." she whispered before she fell against Sesshoumaru. Something told him that she was going to pass out in a moment like this. But what bother him was what she had said started to light sparks in his head, then again what does she do that doesn't does strange things to him. He picked her up and started towards the castle, there was many things that needed to be settled there.

Back At the Castle...

Kagami, Hinoki, Farga, and Sonomi sat around the study. "Oh the poor child" said Kagami. "This sort of things always happens to her! I can't stand it" said Hinoki. "Lady Sonomi are sure you have no idea where he might have taken Rin?" asked Farga looking towards Sonomi. Kagami looked at Farga. "No Lord Farga" she said. "I wonder if Sesshoumaru found her yet" said Kagami. "I pray that he did" said Hinoki. "Don't worry about love, Sesshoumaru will find her" said Farga. "Hinoki darling, you should go to bed" said Kagami. "I can't...not until I know Rin is safe" she said. "I am sure she is, but the children needs you now" said Kagami. Hinoki looked towards Farga who nodded. "Lady Sonomi why don't you head off to bed too" said Farga. Sonomi nodded as she and Hinoki walked out of the room. Farga got up and closed the door. "I can't believe she would pull such a trick" said Kagami walking toward the window. "I agree" said Farga. "I hope Rin is all right" said Farga. "Of course she is all right! Sesshoumaru won't let a bug touch her" said Kagami. Farga chuckled. "She changed him in matter of weeks, and he soon warmed up to the idea of having round...even loving her" said Farga. "Yes...but he is afraid.. fears weakness" said Kagami with a worried look on her beautiful face. "Rin is perfect for him...but she is so full of anger" said Farga. Kagami nodded. "I do feel for the poor child...but Farga what do you know of her past?" asked Kagami. "Not much, only what she told us" he said. "I wonder many things...but I don't have any negative thought about her" said Kagami sitting back down.

"Things are more complicated now, what happened to those days that humans and Youkais' were living in peace" said Farga. "There wasn't ever such a time, no matter what hate will always exist" said Kagami. "I suppose you are right Lady Kagami" he said.
