A Demons Love
Disclaimer: I don't own InuYasha but Akira is mine.
After a few days of traveling the places they passed began to seem familiar to Akira. We must be close, she thought. "We'll stop for the night and the next day you will be home." Sesshomaru said. Sitting by the fire Rin and Akira chatted but Sesshomaru was silent. He watched Akira. Since the day they had gone to the mountain together he hadn't been able to take his eyes of her. There was something about her which calmed him and he felt true peace when he was around her. Sesshomaru also saw how much Rin liked her. She had practically adopted Akira as an older sibling. It would be unfortunate to see her go.
On the other side of the fir there were much different feelings. Just one more day, Jaken thought. One more day and Akira will leave. It was one thing to have to share Sesshomaru's attention with one human, but two he couldn't. There was another thing about Akira he didn't like. Sesshomaru was different around her. He acted nothing like a fierce dog demon but more like a puppy. It was possible she could change Sesshomaru, in Jaken's view, for the worst.
All of them slept silently except for Sesshomaru. Sensing Akira was also awake he called to her. "Akira." he said "Come here." She got up and went to his side. "Yes." she said. She laid her head on his shoulder and he put his arm around her. "I miss you." he said. "And I you." she replied. Akira slept the night in his arms.
At once Akira recognized where she was and broke into a run out of the forest. She found herself standing on the hill over looking her village. I'm home, she thought. All of a sudden she realized she was alone. Turning back she saw Sesshomaru standing at the edge of the forest. "This is where I leave you." he said Akira quickly walked back and hugged him. "Say goodbye to Rin for me would you." "Oh course." he replied Sesshomaru took her hands and kissed her gently. "Goodbye." He said letting go of her and walking back to join Rin and Jaken. Akira stood motionless watching him walk out of sight. She took a deep breath began to walk down the hill.
InuYasha's nose picked up Akira's scent. He was confused; it couldn't be her, could it. Everyone noticed InuYasha acting strange and were somewhat alarmed. "What is it InuYasha?" asked Kagome InuYasha didn't answer immediately. "I've picked up Akira's scent. Last night I could faintly smell her but now the scents strong." "That can't be." Said Miroku "Akira's d....." He stopped in mid-sentence when he spotted a girl coming down the hill. As she came closer her face visible and without doubt it was Akira. She started to run and didn't stop until she reached her fathers arms. Sango handed her baby to Kagome and embraced Akira in tears. Shoro clung to his sisters waist as if he'd never let go. Seeing them made Akira realize how much she had missed her family and for that moment forgot all about Sesshomaru.
Everyone had calmed down by dinner time. Akira had helped her mother and Kagome prepare the largest meal she had ever seen. "You thought I was dead?" Akira said in amazement. "If I would have known I would have come home sooner." "You mean you had a choice?" said Kagome "Yeah." piped Shippo "What about Sesshomaru?" Sesshomaru. This was the first time Akira had thought about him since her arrival. "He's not as bad as you think he is." she said. Everyone was silent. "What do you mean he's not as bad as we think he is." growled InuYasha. "He's tried to kill every last one of us besides Sango. He almost killed Miroku, and me and Kagome about a million times. He's the worst scum in the universe." It was the exact response Akira had expected. "Please listen to me." she pleaded "He's not always that way." "Akira." said Miroku "Tell us everything that happened." She took a deep breath and started to speak. "When I was looking for Sesshomaru in the mountains he attacked me by surprise. I tried to defeat him but he got the better of me." She showed them her hair. "He attacked me from behind." "That explains the blood and hair Miroku and I found." said InuYasha "I felt like I was going to die but I woke up at his lair." Miroku interrupted her "If he laid one hand on you..." "Calm down. Nothing like that happened." Said Akira "Besides I wasn't the only one there." "You mean he had other captives." said Sango "Not captive's mother. There was a toad looking demon named Jaken who obviously held some strong memories of you father; and a little girl, her name was Rin.
"She said that Sesshomaru brought her back to life with his sword when she was killed by a pack of wolves. Rin's such a sweet thing and Sesshomaru is very kind to her and was the same to me. I hated being there at first but I grew to like it; and when I got homesick he agreed to take me home." "That's all pretty hard to believe." said InuYasha Akira looked around the room and it was obvious no one else believed her. Sango put her arms around Akira. "Try to forget all that." she said "Your back home now, you can put it all behind you and sooner or later things will get back to normal; you'll see." Forget. How could she. Forget Sesshomaru, and Rin, and Jaken. How could she forget the man she loved?
