Inuyasha: Yeesh, and he calls me a dog...*rolls eyes*
********************************
Chapter 3:
Reiko ran and ran. The wounded demon was close she could feel it. But Inuyasha's words were still on her mind. 'Why save him! He deserves to die!'
She shook with anger. 'No one deserves to die! And I won't let him die either!' Suddenly she stopped in her tracks. Slowly she bends down and spots a pool of blood. "Still fresh." She looked around and finally saw him... and she gasped in shock.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Reiko quickly ran over to the demon known as Sesshomaru, and he was not in good shape. His breathing was shallow, deep cuts on his head and stomach, bruises everywhere, cuts, and a broken arm. She placed a hand on his forehead, which was burning with a terrible fever. He wasn't going to last that much longer.
Acting quickly she rubbed her hands fiercely together and placed them over his stomach. The golden glow engulfed her hands and faded. Although it wasn't enough to completely heal it, it was enough to help postpone the flow of blood escaping the wound. She quickly looked at his right arm. 'I need a splint'. Reiko gets up, grabs some tree branches, and tears some cloth off her robe. She went to splinting his arm.
He grunted in pain. Turning to look at his face she saw more than pain, she saw fear. 'I thought demons weren't afraid of anything?'
Shaking her head she looked for anymore-serious injuries. Seeing none she now had to get him back to the village so she can have the proper equipment. Making sure he was completely unconscious, she put her arms under his knees and shoulders and hoisted him off the ground. She was surprised at how light he seemed to be. She took off at a run to Keade's house.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Inuyasha was pacing around the living room in his home. He just couldn't get over what Reiko said to him. . . 'I've seen enough people suffer and die. . .' What did she mean by that? Inuyasha suspected she hasn't told the whole truth about herself.
Kagome and the others were looking at him with concern. It took a lot to make him pace around like this. Not even Kagome could do it that easy, and the worst part is no one knew why he is pacing, no one but Miroku. Makoto got up, walked over to his father and grabbed his haori. Inuyasha looked down and smiled.
"What's wrong daddy? Where is Auntie Re?"
Inuyasha picked him up and sat next to Kagome, who put her arms around her husband. "Well Auntie Re had to go help some-"
The scent caught his nostrils again. "Sesshomaru!" He set Makoto down, and ran to the door.
Kagome handed her son to her best friend. "Sango! Take the kids and put them in Makoto's room."
Sango stood there with Makoto in her arms and said, "You shouldn't go! It's too dangerous."
"We went through more dangerous things. And Inuyasha may need help!" Kagome grabbed her bow and arrows and ran after Inuyasha.
Chika tilted her head. "Who's Sesshomaru mommy?" Sango sighed and led then to Makoto's room.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Reiko shifted Sesshomaru. He was starting to move around and making it hard to her to keep a good hold on him. Sighing she looked up to see Inuyasha and Kagome rushing towards her. 'Oh great.'
Inuyasha was the first to reach her and yelled, "What the fucking hell do you think you are doing bringing him here!? You know what will happen if people see?"
Too late. The villagers were coming out to see what Inuyasha was yelling about and when they saw Sesshomaru they gasped, some screamed, and some just looked plain pissed off. Reiko just ignored them and pushed past Inuyasha towards Keade who was standing outside her hut. Seeing the patient she backed up a little bit but still held the door open.
"My child. You do realize that bringing him here will cause some trouble?" The little woman said.
Reiko laid the demon on a spare futon and said, "Yes I know but I don't care. Now can you make sure he stays still while I quickly change?" Keade nodded and Reiko went to change. Keade grabbed some water, blankets, bandages, and some medicine. When she had it all laid out Reiko was back and in her shorts and vest.
Suddenly Inuyasha ran in. "Well if you are having him here you may need help. Who knows how he will act."
She nodded and said, "Where's Kagome?"
He said, "I told her to go back to the house."
She nodded again and turned towards Keade. "I need you to help me get his shirt off."
Keade nodded and they quickly undressed him. He shivered from the lack of warmth and started to moan and heave. His entire body was on fire and that made Reiko become even more concerned.
Suddenly his eyes opened and he screamed. He threw his head back and yelled, "OH FUCK! THE PAIN!" He started thrashing and kicking and arching his back. Reiko tried to hold him down but his right hand rammed into her face, making him cry out in pain because it was broke.
She got off the ground, wiped the blood of her lip and yelled. "INUYASHA GET HIS FEET MAKE SURE HE DOESN'T KICK! I THINK HE WAS POISONED!"
He jumped and held down Sesshomaru's feet. Reiko jumped on his chest that was uninjured and placed her knees down on his arms, or arm, to stop him from moving. Sesshomaru looked at Reiko and she gasped. His eyes were bright red and he was baring his fangs. He screamed once again, louder than the first and thrashed his head back and forth, hitting the floor.
"Keade grab his head! Don't let him bang it on the floor!" Keade knelt by his head and grabbed both sides of his head. He tried to move again, almost throwing them off of him.
"I don't think we can hold him much longer!" Inuyasha yelled.
Reiko said, "We have to try or else he is going to hurt himself. Put all your weight on him! It's the only way!"
Sesshomaru started to breath heavily and tried to stop another scream in his throat. He tried to move again, but with all the weight holding him down he collapsed on the futon, breathing hard. Reiko slowly placed her head near his, their noses almost touching. Sesshomaru nearly bit her face but couldn't lift up his head because of Keade. He stopped moving a little and stared straight into her eyes again. His face contorted with pain and shut his eyes. He opened them again and a single tear ran down his cheek.
"Help. . .me." He whispered. Inuyasha eyes went wide and Keade almost lost her grip on his head.
Reiko only smiled and whispered, "I will Sesshomaru-sama. I will." She placed a kiss on his forehead that made him shiver a little then his eyelids drooped closed. Finally he was in a deep sleep.
Everyone sighed in relief and let him go. Reiko got off his chest and Inuyasha said, "What did you just do?"
Reiko pressed her hands together and said, "It's called The Soothing Kiss. If someone is sick or in pain it helps calm them down and fall asleep. With Sesshomaru-sama here, he had a fever and a poison that makes his body feel like he is on fire. The kiss sent coolness over his body that made him feel a little better and fall asleep. The kiss changes with every patient. You may be freezing and the kiss can make you feel warm instead." She turned to him. "Make sense?"
Inuyasha nodded and Reiko closed her eyes. After about a minute she separated her hands, creating some sort of electricity between her hands. She turned her hands downward and grabbed the ends of it. Slowly she moved her hands to the cut on Sesshomaru's stomach and draped them over the wound, which then buried itself in his skin.
"This will move through his blood, killing off the poison and heal any vital organs that were punctured. Since this cut is very deep I can't heal it completely so this helps immensely." She said.
Reiko then stitched up the wound, wrapped it in bandages and then bandages up his head. Keade helped Inuyasha put Sesshomaru's arm in a better splint and sling while Reiko secured the bandage around a small cut on his left shoulder. She slowly ran her hand down to the stub of his arm and stopped.
She turned to Keade and Inuyasha who just finished with his other arm. "Thank you for your help. Now we just need to let him rest." They nodded. Inuyasha went back home while Keade cleaned up. She placed a hand over his forehead and was satisfied that his fever was broken. Reiko put a blanket over Sesshomaru's form and went to help Keade clean up.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Reiko was staring at him for most of the night. Keade went to bed only a few hours ago and left Reiko to her thoughts. She snuck into his room about two hours ago and now just sat next to him, pacing herself. She let out a deep breath and slowly removed the covers around his left shoulder. Placing her hands about an inch away from each other she began to chant. A tiny blue light formed in the middle of her hands and she moved her hands away, creating a long blue line. Then she grabbed the edges and created a ring of blue.
She looked down at Sesshomaru. Sighing she placed the ring around his stump and pulled down. She closed her eyes in concentration and placed her energy into the ring. Slowly flesh and bone began to from when she pulled down. The blue ring disappeared and she let out a gasp of exhaustion, but it was worth it. Now Sesshomaru had his left arm back. She smiled and placed the blanket back over him.
He began to stir, mumbling a name. "Reiko?"
Reiko sat there stunned. 'How did he know my name?' He began to move again, as if in fright, and Reiko kneeled by his head, placing it in her lap. He started to calm down and breath normally. He opened his eyes slowly. Slowly turned his head and Reiko tilted her head. "Hello there."
Sesshomaru blinked and looked around. "Where, where am I?"
"Shhh. You had a very rough day. I will answer your questions when you are better. Now sleep." She placed a cool hand on his cheek and he looked at her. He opened his mouth to say something but sleep beat him. He closed his eyes again and fell asleep in Reiko's lap.
************************************************************
*wipes forehead* Phew! That was a close one! See Sessy I didn't let you die!! I even gave you back your arm!! *jumps up and down*
Sesshomaru: -__- I am eternally grateful. . .

Because I though it would be funny! *said sarcastically* Duh 'cause I wanted to you stupid puppy!
