"Shippo..Mom..Oh god no.." Rin dropped the phone. The room fell to silence.
"Rin? What is of the matter?" Sesshomaru asked.
"Shippo..mom..hospital..." was all that tumbled from Rin's mouth.
"Sango! Miroku! Get the car going! We need to get to the hospital!" Kagome shouted.
Miroku and Sango nodded. They ran down the corridor and out to the car. Kagome dragged Inuyasha out to the back. Sesshomaru was trying to coax Rin.
"Come along Rin, we need to get to your mother and brother," Sesshomaru commanded.
Rin's legs went limp. Sesshomaru carried her out to the car. Her face, which was always so happy, looked pale and sick. The laughter in her eyes was gone. Rin has been through so much, why must she suffer more? Sesshomaru thought. They got into the car.
"Please hurry," Rin said softly.
Sango still heard Rin through all the commotion. She slipped on her seatbelt and said,
"Don't worry Rin. I can get this baby moving in seconds. Everyone, I recommend you wearing your seatbelts now; this is going to be a bumpy ride."
It turned out, when coming to riding in a car that Sango was riding, you better get out of the street, otherwise, you're road kill.
"Damn people, don't they get the idea that we're having a crisis on our hands," Sango muttered.
When they finally got to the hospital, Rin had come back to her senses and ran out of the car. She could sense her brother. Through all the years he had cared and protected her, they had grown a bond. She could tell he was in much pain. Rin ran down the hallways, turning left and right. Finally, she came down to what she predicted was his room and opened the door. There was Shippo. There was an oxygen mask on his face, helping breathe. When Rin saw him, she walked to his bed.
"Sh-Shippo.."Rin whispered.
"Hey sis, don't look at me like that," Shippo smiled.
"Shippo...Where's mom?" Rin asked.
Shippo remained quiet, that's when Rin noticed a bed next to Shippo's, it was covered in a white sheet, signifying that the body was dead. A cold rush passed over Rin's body. She walked over the corpse, and unveiled the sheet. Dried blood was cracked and all over her face. Rin took a step back.
Her mother had been a beautifully, exotic person. Before she had become an alcoholic, her mother had been such a loud and bright person. With a bubbly personality and her twinkling eyes had made such a warm person. But now, her mother seemed so..ghostly. Rin was scared, staring at her mother made her nervous. She was extremely pale, and there was a cold atmosphere of emptiness around the dead carcass.
"She was dead by the time the medics came," Shippo remarked.
Rin couldn't bear looking at her mother anymore; she covered the body with the sheet, and sat next to Shippo's bed. Shippo had a hard time breathing for a few seconds. Rin held her brother's hand. It was ice cold.
"Sh-Shippo...your hand ....it's so cold," Rin gasped.
"Rin listen to me, I won't be able to live. You have to run, those people who slaughtered mom and dad. They know who we are, and they know where we are. Rin you have to run. You have to move somewhere else. You have to leave. Rin go. You have to run," Shippo said, and looked at his sister with a sad expression.
"Who did this to you?" Rin choked through the tears she didn't even notice coming down her face.
Suddenly the door burst open. Shippo's eyes widened, he pointed to the intruder and said,
"He did.." Shippo whispered.
Rin turned to look, Shippo was pointing to Sesshomaru.
"Rin run!" Shippo gasped in his raspy voice, "And remember..I love you little sis.." Shippo closed his eyes. Rin looked to the heart monitor; a straight line ran across the street. Shippo was dead.
"Shippo..quit playing. Coming big brother, wake up. Wake up. Quit trying to scare me! Wake up Shippo! Don't leave me! OPEN YOURS EYES GODDAMMIT!" Rin shouted.
The door opened again, the whole group was there.
"W-What happened?" Sango gasped.
"He's..She's...They're gone." Rin whispered.
Sesshomaru put a hand on Rin's shoulder. Rin slapped it away.
"You sick murderer! You rotten MURDERER!" Rin screamed.
She shook her head and ran out, knocking Inuyasha to the floor.
"What the hell happened here?" Inuyasha asked, picking himself off the ground.
Sesshomaru said nothing, for some reason, he turned to look at the dead body of Rin's mother. Sesshomaru uncovered it. The body had been dead for over two hours. Sesshomaru had been by Rin all day, and he was at the party for six hours. Something was wrong.
"Inuyasha, come here for a moment," Sesshomaru commanded.
"Feh. Why should I?" Inuyasha snorted.
"Inuyasha, do it," Sesshomaru said, beginning to sound as if he truly was angry.
"Inuyasha, do it or I'll say the 's' word," Kagome threatened. Inuyasha mumbled and walked next to Sesshomaru.
"What do you want?" Inuyasha asked grumpily.
"How long has this body been dead?" Sesshomaru asked.
Inuyasha took a sniff.
"Just recently. I'd say about three or two hours ago," Inuyasha replied.
"That is all I needed to know," Sesshomaru said and ran off to Rin.
* * *
It was pouring outside, Rin didn't care. In fact, she didn't notice at all. She stopped; she was out in the parking area of the hospital. She hugged her knees and began to sob.
"I don't know what to believe anymore," Rin whispered.
She sobbed quietly to her own misery. I've cried so many tears, I feel like a fool, shedding tears over and over again. Rin thought to herself. She could feel something warm slide over her back. Rin turned her head to look. It was Sesshomaru.
"Kill me if you want, I don't have any reason to live at all," Rin stated.
"I am not here to take your life Rin," Sesshomaru remarked.
"Then why did you slaughter my kin?" Rin asked.
"How did I kill a body that's been dead for two hours?" Sesshomaru asked.
"What?" Rin asked.
"That body has been dead for the past two hours," Sesshomaru remarked.
"How do I know that you're not lying?" Rin asked.
"How come I didn't kill you?" Sesshomaru asked.
"I don't know! I don't know anything! I don't know why my father had to die! I don't know why Shippo had to die! I don't know why my mother had to die! I don't know anything!" Rin shouted.
She pounded her fist against Sesshomaru's chest. She was so angry. Angry at life. Angry at her father, mother and brother. Angry at Naraku. Angry at the world. But most of all, Rin was angry, at herself.
"Why do so many lives need to be sacrificed over me?" Rin whispered. She clung onto Sesshomaru's shirt.
"I don't deserve to live, Sesshomaru, please, take my life," Rin begged, "Just let me die, and then it'll all be over."
"And what point is there to that?" Sesshomaru asked coldly, "What reason is there? Rin, answer me. Would there be any specific point in killing you? Would there be a meaning in your death? All it would mean is that we lost, and Naraku would gain triumphant. There is no point. You're behavior is childish. Do you actually think that, killing yourself would solve anything?"
"I just don't want anymore people that I love to die," Rin said softly.
Sesshomaru cupped her face, his face didn't show it, but his eyes did.
"When you die, Rin, understand this. If you did die, you are practically killing the ones you love yourself. You are killing their souls, and it hurts them deeply. Talking like this will get you absolutely nowhere," Sesshomaru stated sternly.
Rin looked at him with a sad expression. Sesshomaru had always been so cold hearted and distant. But deep inside, he was lonely, and he would've never admitted it. He never anticipated the thought, that all he ever needed was just a little girl, named Rin.
Sesshomaru touched her forehead with his. Rin looked up, making her nose nuzzle with his. Rin looked at Sesshomaru; he seemed as if there was nothing but coldness in his heart. There was a block of ice freezing his heart, and Rin, had melted it down. Rin reached up, their lips met.
Sesshomaru reacted to this quickly. Rin put her arms around his neck. Sesshomaru put his hand on her cheek. Finally, they broke apart. Rin smiled, but mostly blushed, that was her first kiss. And it seemed that it was Sesshomaru's first kiss also. Noticing the expression he had on his face, by slightness that only Rin could tell. He looked, how could she say. Dreamy.
"I love you Sesshomaru," Rin whispered.
"As do I," Sesshomaru replied, and their lips met again.
Kissing passionately, Sesshomaru and Rin, felt truly happy.
* * *
Sesshomaru carried Rin into her room that was placed in his house. The bed had been delivered, and quickly put together. Rin looked a little pale, and very exhausted. Sesshomaru seemed weary and much stressed. Tucking her in, Sesshomaru was about to leave when suddenly Rin mumbled.
"Please don't leave Sesshomaru," Rin muttered.
Sesshomaru knew very little about the people issue, but followed his instinct. He rubbed her back, calming her down and soothing her.
"Sesshomaru?" Rin called out as she turned to look at him.
"What is it that you wish to tell me?" Sesshomaru asked.
"Can you please, erm, sleep next to me," she seemed embarrassed.
"Hmm?" Sesshomaru asked.
"I'm just scared that you will disappear like everyone else," Rin mumbled.
Sesshomaru got under the covers, and wrapped his arms around Rin.
"Goodnight Sesshy," Rin murmured.
"Do sleep well," Sesshomaru whispered into her ear. Rin giggled, and fell asleep. Shortly after, Sesshomaru did as well.
* * *
Sesshomaru awoke, to find that Rin was not in his grasp. He looked frantically, and that's when he noticed the note on the table. Sesshomaru got out of the bed and reached for the note, it read:
Dear Sesshomaru,
I am leaving somewhere, so that no one will be hurt because of me. Do not follow me, I shall fight Naraku, and most likely die in the process. Do not shed tears for me. I love you.
Love,
Rin
Sesshomaru grasped the note tightly, and then sniffed the air. He knew where Rin was.
AN: I'm going through depression, I may not be able to load for a while. My mother's so sick, that the chances of her dying, are bigger then the chances of living. Wounds that have not healed, have reopened from my father's past. I don't feel good. Both physically and mentally. I'm not healthy, and I'm very suicidal. Feel free to flame me, I really don't care at the moment.
"Rin? What is of the matter?" Sesshomaru asked.
"Shippo..mom..hospital..." was all that tumbled from Rin's mouth.
"Sango! Miroku! Get the car going! We need to get to the hospital!" Kagome shouted.
