A/N- heeey....i actually updated.....wow....not that anyone really reads this but
much thanx to those who do and leave reviews! For some reason I couldn't
log on....so yea. I got so pissed! Anyway....I still don't know who the nurse
should be so please take a vote and tell me who u think would fit this the
best. But for now...I just ASSUMED the character to be kagome cause of the
only review I got that actually voted. So this is not permanent unless you
wish it to be.
Disclaimer: Must I say it again? Owning the stupid plot is good enough for me because I am very much inferior to the creator of inuyasha.

Heavy, uneven breaths were heard as the nurse leapt out of the elevator and ran the rest of the way up to the roof of the hospital.
'Onegai......please don't do something stupid......'
The door to the roof slowly came into view as the nurse quickly pushed it open, eyes squinting slightly from the pale orange sunlight that blanketed the sky. The nurse stood there, staring at the motionless man as she tried to catch her breath. With his hair dancing with the wind and the sunset casting a warm glow upon his form, it didn't seem to be warming anything inside him. Cautiously, she took small hesitant steps towards the unmoving man.
Sesshoumaru's back stiffened as he sensed her coming closer. His feet were dangling on the edge of the rooftop, clothing swaying along with the melody of the wind. His fists were clenched against the side, knuckles white and eyebrows drawn together. His breathing was ragged; from anger or frustration she didn't know.
"Ano........w-what's your name?"
Silence.
"It's not safe for you to be sitting there like that........come back down......please think things over before you......you do something you'll regret....."
Cold, piercing eyes met stormy blue gray ones as Sesshoumaru turned his head to face the young woman. The nurse gasped, jumping slightly as she retreated her hand, frozen with fear or nervousness she didn't know. His gaze seemed to hold her there, with imaginary chains bounding her to the cemented floor.
A laugh.
The harsh chuckling emitting from the mysterious man's lips sounded so hollow, so empty, disturbing the silence that once existed. It was a laugh that sent shivers down ones spine, chilling you to the core of your body, your soul, freezing your heart and paralyzing your mind. It held no warmth, no love........and definitely no humor.
It was cold and empty, a laugh made from years of pain and bitterness. A laugh created by suffering.
The silence came again to fill the gap, as if it had not been disturbed at all, settling calmly between the two, like little sand pebbles slowly drifting down to the bottom of the ocean after the waves have stopped. The wind blew, lifting the young woman's hair, joining the wind in a slow gentle dance, as she remained glued to her spot, bound by the chains from the man's eyes.
Unnoticed by the both of them, the sun had set, the blanket of yellow and orange leaving with it, disappearing from the sky, leaving only the hollow blackness that seemed to swallow the world.
Swallowing the lump that had been stuck in her throat, the woman slowly stepped forward, dragging along with her the weight of the chains, making her drag her feet. Just as she was about to speak, Sesshoumaru beat her to it as he turned his head away, freeing her of his bindings.
"Be gone woman, you are not wanted nor needed here. What I do is my own decision. You have no right or power to stop me when you don't even know why. No body can understand this pain."
"But dying won't solve anything! Please don't do it or you'll regret leaving! It's not worth it to just die!"
"Regret you say? Now why would I regret something such as death? You have no right to tell me not to die!! You don't know what I've been through! This is not a problem that can be easily solved nor should it be taken lightly!"
A lone tear trickled down the curve of Sesshoumaru's cheek as his mask cracked that little bit more. In all the years of his life, Sesshoumaru had lived off of pride, honor, and bravery. He scowled at anyone who was weak. But now he was the weak one, the coward that wished to give up his life and he felt ashamed. Ashamed at his want, his need to leave this world. For once he just didn't want to care anymore.
He wanted to be a coward.
Fist clenched, a determined expression planted itself on the young nurse's face.
"I don't know what you have been through, but what you are doing right now is nothing a real man does! If you have problems, then face them! Don't be a coward and bear your problems like a man! Think about all those people who care about you. If you die and leave them behind, what would they think? You can't be so irresponsible and leave all your problems for them to take care of as the sadness of your death burdens them as well! If you die, it would be too selfish of you!"
Again there was a laugh. But this one held humor, bitter, painful humor.
"What makes you think I even have family or friends to worry about me? Ever thought of the fact that I could be alone? I think not..."
A soft gasped escaped the nurse's lips as her eyes darkened to a stormy gray, showing sadness and shock. She was at a loss of what to say and all that came to her mind was one thing.
This man was an enigma.
