Disclaimer: I dont own inuyasha or any charicters from the anime, or
manga.
Note: I couldnt get the family tree up on ff.net, but im still trying. Please dont get mad at me for the little bit of imbreeding, during that time period it wasnt unusual for cousins to get married (and in some american states its still legal) Im just trying to be historically accurate. Besides, with all those demons in Naraku, he was no longer Onigumo.
-Sesshomaru-
I looked arround in confusion. I was in my castle, as i had been a minute before, but everything looked different. There were all different kinds of inventions that i had never seen before. Insted of candles there were little glass balls with fire in them. I went to go find rin, worried about what may have happened.
I saw her sitting in the field of flowers as she usually was, except that she was wearing strange clothing. It was like what that woman who travels with my useless brother wears.
"Sesshomaru sama, what happened?" She asked innocently.
"I dont know Rin chan, but im going to find out." A horrible smell drifted on the air. It was like nothing i had ever smelled in my long life. It was like how Inuyasha smelled after visiting his womans home.
Sesshomaru sama?" She whispered.
"Go back to the castle Rin".
"Please, can i go with you this time?"
I thought for a minute, finally telling her "No, i care too much about you to let you go."
'Oh crap, did i just say that?' I thought, as i felt a blush creep up my cheeks "i mean i dont want you to get hurt.
-Rin-
I saw the red tint to Sesshomaru's cheeks, and couldnt help but laugh. Five years ago, he wouldnt show any emotion, let alone let himself look embarrased. Turning serious i said "Youve changed."
"So have you" he replied looking pointedly at my chest. I blushed, crossing my arms.
"Thats not what i meant, and you know it sesshomaru sama."
"Youre in heat, its not safe with these demons running around, and humans can be worse, especially since you willingly live with a demon."
"I know that sesshomaru" i whispered.
He looked at me quite serriously, and said "I love you Rin" and then he disappeared as though he had never been there...
-Sesshomaru-
I was beating myself up for hours after that. 'How could i have told her? No, she needs to know, maybe then she will stay away from me when shes in heat. But is that what i really want? i dont even know what i want, what am i saposed to do??'
After i reached the end of the western lands, i saw it. The whole country was ruined. Huge buildings were everywhere, and these strange steel carriges were being driven on black roads. I didnt know what to think or do, so i followed my first instinct. Protect Rin.
I ran back to the castle as quickly as i could and found her thoughtfully looking out of her balcony when i returned. She hadnt seen me yet, so i slipped under the balcony, so that i could hear what she was mumbling to herself.
"I love you too sesshomaru-Sama" is the only thing i heard. I ran back to my chambers wondering what i should do. I know that she would be scared if she saw what was out there. How different the world was.
Later that night, i went to rins chambers and told her about what i saw. How different the world was. To my surprise she said "Im not worried, i have you Sesshomaru sama."
I looked deep into her eyes, and leaned forward, gently kissing her. She slowly slipped her arms arround my neck returning the kiss.
"I love you Rin" i said, before leaving her to return to my chambers. I didnt want to take advantage of her while she was in heat, and unable to make such a decision.
-Kagome-
Three days later we had finally settled as best as we could at the shrine until we could find houses, or at least apartments for the other people. Inuyasha and Miroku slept in Sotas room, while kaede, shippo, and Sango all slept in mine. Kikyo slept on the couch.
"How is it that you have no problem with the woman that broke the heart of the one that you love, and can live with her in peace?" Mom asked "If i were you i would probably tear her eyes out" she said with a grin. "Then again, you always were more patient than I am."
"Mom, its not like that" I answered "She died because she loved inuyasha just as much as i do". I knew that my voice sounded unsure, so i continued "Besides, she is my great-great-great-great-great-great- grandmother."
"You mean, Inuyasha and she had a child?" Mom asked incredulously.
"No, she had kaede with miroku. The miroku that you know is his grandson."
"But she looks so much older than kikyo."
"Thats what fifty years will do. Kikyo was dead, and she was brought back from her ashes by urusue. I thought i already told you that."
***Three days later***
I walked into WacDonalds with my friends like i usually did. Of course, they were babbling on about how i should go out with hojo on saturday.
"Yeah kagome, you really should try to forget about your mystery man, and try to find womeone else."
"Hojos totally cute too, you should really give him a shot."
And on and on it went. When we went up to order our food eri said in an awed voice "Or maybe even him".
Behind the counter there was a very pissed off looking hanyo. "What can I get you today?" He asked in a bored voice.
My friends giggled uncontrolibly, especially when eri said "maybe he can replace your mystery man".
"I am her mystery man" Inuyasha answered.
"WHAT?!" they all said in unison. Blushing i ordered our food, and inuyasha just grinned at us, as we went to our table.
-Miroku-
Talking to Mrs. Higurashi on day, she finally asked the question that nobody else dared to ask me. I knew that they had all been thinking it, but they didnt want to be rude.
"Well Miroku. Since we are family, i want to know a little about our history." She said "If your wind tunnel is in your one hand, then why dont you just cut it off or something? I know it would be inconvienient, but you could live withought it. You could finally live a normal life."
"Well, thats what my grandfather thought too. Unfortunitely, it didnt work the way he hoped. The wind tunnel immedietly dissappeared from the severed hand, and apeared, even larger on his other hand." he calmly answered "My main problem, however, is that im so used to having it, that it has become my greatest strength, as well as my greatest weakness. I need to find some way that i can keep it, withought the risk of it pulling me, and everyone else i love, into it."
Naraku walked into the room, surrounded by his minions.
"AND ITS ALL THIS HATEFULL BASTARDS FAULT" Miroku yelled.
"Have you still not figured it out houshi sama?" Naraku said, almost kindly. "You are the end of the wind tunnel curse. Your bloodline is free.
"How?" Miroku asked, a little suspiciously.
"In case you dont remember, I will tell you. A few years ago, you were traveling, as your father did, and his father before him. The curse was place on your grandfather for what he did to my mother. Believe it or not, this is my mother." Naraku said, pointing to Kagura. "She is also Sesshomarus mother. In case you didnt notice, Sesshomaru inherited her ears. Anyway, Miroku told my mother that he was going to leave the path he was on, and marry her. After she got pregnant, he continued to wander the coutryside, and leaft her to deal with the consequences."
"What does that have to do with the wind tunnel curse? All that tells me is why you cursed my grandfather. Why did you curse us all, if you knew we were your family?"
"I didnt curse you as a person, but your ways. Your father was just like our father. He had several relationships, and did not love any of the women. The wind tunnel curse therfore would not stop. You, on the other hand, have fallen in love with a woman. You dont even think about anybody else anymore. Because of this, your wind tunnel will not spread, however it will still pass to your first born son."
"YOU EVIL BASTARD! YOU SAY THAT I AM THE END OF THE CURSE, BUT MY CHILDREN WILL STILL HAVE IT??? HOW AM I THE END THEN???"
"Simple. You already have had a son. In case you dont remember, about 16 years ago, you met a peasant girl who agreed to have your child. you, like your father, leaft her to deal with the consequences. She married later, when your twin children were less than a year old, and they lived happily. Well, they live happily until they died. Rin is your daughtor. Her mother and brother, your first son, were killed in battle. I adopted the family, so to speak, but i got in that accident when i was going back to see my grandfather, when i got into that accident, and fell off that cliff."
Note: I couldnt get the family tree up on ff.net, but im still trying. Please dont get mad at me for the little bit of imbreeding, during that time period it wasnt unusual for cousins to get married (and in some american states its still legal) Im just trying to be historically accurate.
