Chapter#9Sorrow's love

Sesshoumaru walked calmly to the castle like he always does, with that poker face of his calmed
on the outside but fuming on the inside. How could he do such a thing..That horrible despicable
Hanyou, he thought to himself.

Naraku now on top of Kikyo pinning her down even thought she was already tied up trusting in
her enjoying her silent tears and slight cries out. ~This isn't happening I have been captured..No
one will come for me No Knight in shining in armor~ She cries become louder Naraku baring
down harder and harder on her. He touched every part of her kissing her as well. His rhythm
became harder and faster ~This isn't happening~ her hair clings to her face she tries to hide
herself with her hair, but Naraku takes just enough time to brush it away and kiss her again
before taking the rhythm up again. Kikyo is struggling with all her might to stop this. This feeling
besides being low like a whore. No this must stop. But with every twist and thrash she makes
Naraku laughs loving every minute of it. ~So strong yet I make her venerable like a little fragile
porcelain doll~ 'No..No...' Kikyo thrashes about. Kikyo finally gives a blood curtailing scream
that make Naraku gives his trademark chuckle "Go ON Scream! Make lovely background
Music!"

The silence of the twilight only being disturbed by the slight blowing of wind and birds going to
the roost is all shattered by a woman's scream. "Kikyo.." Sesshoumaru's eyes widen slightly and
then narrow on the castle. Sesshoumaru puts down Tenseiga and grabs his favored sword
Tokijin. "I am coming priestess that bastard shall pay" Sesshoumaru darts for the Castle now
faster and faster and when Kikyo's scream is heard again he almost flies. He went through the
barrier and through the wall of the main room. The servants were startled and then began to
attack Sesshoumaru they were no match for him even with out the sword. He can't seem to pin
point what room this sadistic scum has the undeserving priestess. He begins to bust down the
room's doors as he goes down the hall way .

Naraku doesn't even notice Sesshoumaru well he does but didn't figure he was in the castle with
the barrier he put up so he continued in loving his Kikyo who is drenched in tears. Sesshoumaru
bust down door after door. Naraku starts to nip at Kikyo who screams out one more time only to
have you guessed it, Sesshoumaru bust down the door while pieces of wood and paper fly down
like confetti. Naraku stops mid way in Kikyo and turns around to see Sesshoumaru standing there
Naraku wasn't embarrassed having Sesshoumaru see him naked why should he this should be a
gift to him. Sesshoumaru glares and cuts threw Naraku. Kikyo stares up at Sesshoumaru half
relieved and surprised to see him ~someone actually came~ Seshoumaru stared down at the
naked priestess. Wow she was even more beautiful. He turned around to see Naraku laughing
naked I the corner "So the pathetic demon came to get the woman HAH" Sesshoumaru leered at
Naraku and struck him again. Naraku chuckled as he healed up from the swords damage.

Sesshoumaru wasn't surprised from this but he decided to get the priestess out of here before
anything else could be done to her. He grabbed Kikyo by her tied wrists and quickly brought her
up cutting the rope with his claws. She was free but still weak the barrier still effected her. She
tried t find her clothing but could not. Seshoumaru went at Naraku figuring where to hit him.
Seshoumaru took off his (I don't know the name of his shirt forgive me but I don't cause I don't
think it is a kimono) top and threw it at kikyo who was great ful to have it. Naraku and
Seshoumaru tear up the house fighting Naraku caught Sess a few times but Seshoumaru got him
more. Kanna. Kanna comes walking threw the barrier with her mirror souls fly out of it and get
automatically absorbed my kikyo. She has her strength back but n weapons.

Kikyo runs back to them Kanna follows not saying a word Kikyo by now is not sure if she is
friend or foe by the recent actions but it doesn't matter she must stop Naraku. Kikyo runs toward
them and grabs Naraku shocking him. Naraku does stop this was pretty powerful Sesshoumaru
hits him with the tokijin and seriously injures him. Kanna watches with her emotionless face as
her master get beaten up. Kanna send Sesshoumaru back to the ground and kikyo goes after her..
Kanna looks at kikyo whom stops and looks back. "Jealousy wasn't it?" kanna doesn't reply
Kikyo smirks "Well Thank you for doing this." Kanna gives her a message that Sesshoumaru
didn't hear he got back up ready to kick her ass but stopped seeing Kikyo who looked good half
naked wearing his flowing top. Kikyo looks even more sorrowful about what she heard and ran
out of the barrier her soul stealers following her giving her the spirits she ever so needed.

Kanna sent Sesshoumaru out of the area by seriously attacking him we woke up miles away
being saved by his Tenseiga once again. He sat straight up "Lord Seshoumaru!" that child's
voice. Rin. He looked to see Jaken and Rin running after him. "Master Sesshoumaru!" Rin and
Jaken rush to him sitting down before him "What has happened Lord?" Rin said shocked and
concerned. Sesshoumaru looks at her "A Battle.." "Battle?" both Rin and Jaken say it at the same
time "Yes..but Where is the priestess?" Rin's looked at him "She is not here" "That wench isn't
here lord we saw her soul snake things awhile ago they lead us to you before disappearing before
us. Sesshoumaru perks up to those words "Where exactly did they appear.." Rin smiled "Near the
river ord Sesshoumaru.." Sesshoumaru stand up "master you should rest." "No Jaken I will be
gone again but soon to return." Sesshoumaru leaves saying good bye to Rin and disappears in the
forest. He searched for hours but couldn't catch her sent it should be distinguishable she probably
still smelled of Naraku and she did after all smell like the dead and then again had the sent she
did so many years ago from what he guessed.

He saw her soul stealers leading him to a certain part of clear land in the forest that wasn't all
that big and there she was in a tree still wearing his shirt sleeping getting her nourishment by the
flickering fire. Sesshoumaru stepped closer and her eyes opened she grabbed her bow and arrow
and pointed it directly at him. HE stopped and stared at her and then she lower her bow with a
sigh or relief. "Lord Sesshoumaru.." She muttered as a breeze flew past. She looked at her and
said quickly but manly "Priestess Kikyo" She lowers herself and walks closer to him.
Sesshoumaru grabs her and fiddles with her silken hair. Kikyo a little surprised but happy about
it. It was pitch black and her fire was going "Kikyo." He said her name again and then they
kissed one another. They laid together loving each other sweet fully but satisfactory. Her sighs
were a song to him and her touch a gift from above Even though she was cold it didn't matter
this was for them. He touched her and heard her sing once more and when they fully opened their
hearts to one another they sat up and he held on to her so she wouldn't leave without answering
his questions.

"Why did you run away like that" He asked coldly . Kikyo looked at him directly"Because she
said that when we meet the next time nothing more comes of us" Kikyo looked down when
Sesshoumaru asked "What does that mean?" Kikyo gives her sorrowful smile and chills him to
the bone "I don't know I can't say...but I love..." Every thing faded to white and flower petals
and blood feel from above Sesshoumaru and Kikyo were separated and couldn't find one another
in the strange place and they were floating in air too..who was Kikyo? Who was Sesshoumaru? A
faint chuckle was heard. They felt one another's hands 'That is who you are" they say at the same
time they lean into each other to see whose face the hand belongs too "I don't want to lose you.."
They both say, their voices intertwine making a lovely sound of music in the wind. Then their
hands slip away "No.." Kikyo mutter floating in air "that touch cold but comforting" she is daze
but tries to float toward the silhouette but it is fading. Sesshoumaru feels the woman's hand slip
away from his "That woman I can't leave her she can't leave me.." "I don't want that feeling to
go away" He tries floating threw the flower petals and blood to the woman's shadowed frame.

....................................... "I don't want to leave you.."

Kikyo's eyes open she must have dozed off while feding. She recalled the drama that happened
earlier and why she felt horrible and relieved. A demon by Kagura had captured her by
manipulating a poor child. Kikyo was taken to Naraku's lair and raped. She cringed clutching her
red hakama that she has been wearing this whole time. Kikyo finally got hold of the situation
when kanna made a mistake and accidently took down the barrier Kikyo injured them all and got
away. Far away and was happy about it but why is she feeling as if she was loved by someone?
Probably a dream.

Sesshouaru woke up to se Rin and jaken looking over him "Master you're awake" "Yes?"
Seshoumaru sits up and adjust his shirt what a weird sent the shirt he has worn for so long has
caught? Fragrant yet mournful. Jaken looked at his master "What happened lord you said battle
and nothing more.?" Sesshoumaru explained his Battle with Naraku that happed to be in the
morning and was surprised that it was mid night. After he was done explaining to the horny toad
and the naive child they went off to get food and he sat there pondering. He w satisfied he injured
Naraku the way he did but why does he feel this satisfied? Something was up but it must have
been a dream.

((((((((Now a part that happens in the series I read spoiler summaries and I am adding it in but
of course I am changing it to fit this story))))))))

Many Many day weeks later comes the fateful time when Kikyo and Sesshoumaru meet with the
Bankotsu incident. They saw one another and thought something but didn't say a word. It was
nothing they didn't know the other....After that and Bankotsu dies comes the fatefull event when
Naraku gathers everyone for a show down. Sesshoumaru stands there as Kikyo is at the edge of
the cliff and Naraku appears talking to her. She seemed so confident he thought why is there
some feeling so familiar? Then It hit him Naraku's hand turn into a clawed spike and goes threw
Kikyo's shoulder. ~Its her Kikyo the priestess of moon's past the woman who I saved from him
made love too.~ Kikyo screamed thinking "Lord Sesshoumaru I didn't want to leave him..He
gave me a love Inuyasha couldn't!" She thought as she was pushed over the cliff by Naraku's
grasping claw..Kikyo's thought for a moment thought of Sesshoumaru hitting him the arrow
healing him being hugged saved from being raped, and given love by someone as cold as she was
they warmed one another... Kikyo disappeared behind the cliff suspecting being burned up in the
poisonous gas...

Then Inuyasha comes and loses it after seeing a piece of white cloth that had a soul stealer flying
around it and when it falls the soul stealers follows burning up in the gas. Sesshoumaru saw it he
saw a woman whom he had loved fall to her death alone..all alone. Inuyasha of course went into
the whole you died alone thought and speech making Sesshoumaru feel lost and saddened ..She
died alone not knowing someone loved her. When Inuyasha breaks into Sesshoumaru seeing it
'you just let him kill her' Sess defends himself and tells Inuyasha more like lying 'it wasn't my
battle instead of yelling at me go find Naraku and kill him yourself' is basically what Sess said to
little brother before leaving... The thought of Seeing her fall by Naraku's hand into the pit made
him feel uneasy she died alone no one to love her. He wants to kill Naraku now he shall die for
that and to cover it he'll ay it is for his own reasons but..she died alone no one to love her she
never knew someone had loved her.
No.
He had loved her.
But she didn't know.
She died alone.
