Hello again! Thanks for all the reviews. Okay well sorry for all spelling mistakes bla, bla, blah, whatever I'll just start now okay? Fine. Are you happy now? WELL? ARE YOU? ANSWER ME GOD DAMNIT! DON"T BACK SASS ME!!! YOU'RE MAKING ME ANGRY! YOU BETTER STOP IT BEFORE I GO CHIPMUNK ON YOUR ASS! Hehe! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Jade sat starring at the rain. It ran down her face in streams. A soft melody drifting from her lips. She hummed to herself as she sat in the rain. She fingered the small dagger tied to the outside of her leg. She slowly slid it out of her sheath and watched the raindrops plop on the metal. She held her arm out, and in perfect neat lines, carved a small butterfly. One butterfly turned into three and three turned into seven. Blood that trickled from the small delicate cuts mixed with the gentle rain. Jade smiled, lost in the blissful pain. A hand was laid on her shoulder suddenly. She looked up startled into a pair of golden orbs.
"What the hell do you think you are doing?!"
Jade just stared at inuyasha. She did not respond. She looked at him, but at the same timed, looked right through him. Her head cocked to the side. The soft calming melody still drifted from her lips. Inuyasha tightened his grip on her arm and tried to yank the dagger away from her. This brought jade to her senses.
"What the hell are you doing? This knife belongs to me! THIEF!"
"What in the seven hells makes you think I am going to let you keep this knife just so you can cut yourself? Do you really think I am that stupid?!"
"Yes."
"DAMN BITCH!"
Jade smiled and laughed, and in one swift movement pulled herself free from inuyasha's grip and ran away, prancing and twirling in the rain. Inuyasha shook his head. He could still smell the lingering scent of blood. He didn't understand her. He had thought she was happy, why then would she be purposely causing herself pain? He scratched his head and sighed. Ever since jade's last encounter with Sesshomaru, she had acted happy and smiled on the out side, but inuyasha could see the emptiness in her eyes. He turned, shaking the water from his eyes and headed back towards the village.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tears streamed down jade's face, concealed completely by the rain. She was hunched over, shivering from the cold, a painful ache ripping through her stomach. She moaned, the hole in her heart widened and her loneliness threatened to consume her. Her shoulders shook with sobs. The pale dress was practically see-through and it clung to her like skin. She clawed at her chest, trying desperately to make the ache go away. Her hands made their way to her head. She began to pull at her hair and shake her head vigorously.
"Stop! Make it go away! Make the hurting stop! Please!" her whimpers went unanswered. She rocked back and forth hugging her knees.
She fell to the ground from her sitting position and let her tears mix with the puddle forming around her. Wet, slick grass licked her face. It brushed along her legs tickling her, but she did not laugh.
"Jade?" a soft voice spoke behind her. She didn't look up at kagome. "Jade, what's wrong?"
Jade slowly rose and turned to kagome. She faked a smile, replacing her mask.
"Nothing is wrong kagome, why do you ask?"
"Jade! Don't give me that bull shit! What the hell is wrong? Tell me!"
"Nothing is wrong kagome." Her mask was slowly beginning to slip. She turned to leave.
"Where the hell do you think you are going? You aren't leaving till you tell me what's wrong."
Jade glanced at her, sorrow consumed her features and she fled.
"JADE!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Jade ran blindly through the woods, rain and twigs lashing out at her. Choked sobs escaped from her lips and she cried even harder. The truth was she didn't know what was wrong with her. She felt as if she was being torn from the inside. She just wanted to get away from the pain. She just kept running and running until she tripped over something (a/n: or someone *wink, wink*) and fell sprawled on the ground. She just stayed laying there, her face buried in the ground, her sobs muffled. She suddenly felt herself being gently lifted off the ground and into something very warm.
"Jade, it's okay now, you're safe." came a soothing voice.
"Sesshomaru?" she managed to whisper.
She felt a clawed hand being lightly trailed up and down her back. She shivered with suppressed delight. Tears still streamed from her eyes. Sesshomaru smelled the salty water and looked down at her. Surrounded by his (a/n: is that thing he wears his tail? I think it is so I'm gonna go with the flow, so please don't yell at me.) tail jade looked small, fragile and frightened. She trembled like a timid rabbit. He purred deep in his chest, softly, ever so softly. Still, although calmed the tears seemed to come in an endless stream. Sesshomaru swiped a single tear from her pale cheek with a clawed finger and licked it off. Jade just stared up at him. he stared right back at her.
"you're crying." He said stating the obvious.
"no shit Sherlock." Jade whispered softly a little of her old humor leak into her voice.
"you shouldn't cry. You shouldn't have to feel pain or sadness."
Jade chuckled softly, barely audible, "it's just like me. I am weak and pathetic. I can't keep the feelings away. And then the tears come and won't stop."
Sesshomaru didn't say anything; instead in response he swooped down and licked the salty tears that were cascading down her cheeks. Surprisingly, they stopped. Jade blinked up into his golden orbs. A smile tugged at his lips.
"why are you being so nice to me?" tears threatened to spill again.
"what do you mean?" Sesshomaru asked surprised by the question.
Jade averted her eyes, looking past him at the falling rain. Without her knowledge he had carried her to someplace dry and sheltered from the rain. She sighed. "All my life there has always been something wrong with me. Never was I good enough, always there was something people could hate me for. I just-was never good enough. I have gone through life alone and no one has ever cared for me. I never really knew what it was like to have a friend. Kagome and I just used each other to get out of the mental hospital I don't think she truly cared about me. I just...............want to know, well, what makes you different? Do you really care?"
Her eyes were round and pleading, hopeless and hollow. His mask of serene nature crumbled at the sight of her bleak lifeless face. She looked so sad. He desperately wanted to comfort her, but nothing he would say would take away the pain she had gone through, the loneliness she had endured. So instead he laced his fingers around her neck and brought her closer.
"please don't cry" he whispered before pressing his lips softly onto hers. A small gasp escaped her lips before she responded to the kiss by pulling his closer.
She ran her fingers through his hair and he pulled her even tighter, crushing her frail body against her and deepening the kiss. Suddenly he withdrew and turned, sniffing the air intently. Jade was left laying in his arms gasping for air. She caught her breath and looked up at him.
"what is it?"
"kagome, but her scent is warped and different some how. She is just outside."
"okay, let's go then, see what's up."
Sesshomaru nodded and let jade up. As she stood a flush crawled into Sesshomaru's cheeks. Jade looked down and gasped slightly. Her dress, soaking still, was practically see-through. She had forgotten about that. She shrugged.
'oh well, I'll worry about that later.'
She strode towards the entrance of the sheltered clearing but stopped short as she reached the edge of the brush.
"you're not kagome, you may look and smell like her, but you certainly aren't her."
"you're right," an icy voice said, "that pathetic excuse for a human could never measure up to me, nor could she ever be worthy of inuyasha's love as I am. Although you probably don't even now who inuyasha is now do you?"
jade's eyes widened as she remembered kagome mentioning something about inuyasha being a two timing bastard. Kaede had told her about kagome being a reincarnation and how inuyasha was pinned to a tree for 50 years. She also had knowledge of Naraku and Kikyou. She guessed that the woman in front of her was Kikyou. The one trying to take inuyasha away from kagome. Jade's eyes narrowed. She would not let that happen. She would knock some sense into this broad.
"Kikyou I presume." Jade said her tone icy enough to chill you to the bone.
Kikyou just shot her I'm-so-superior-you're-inferior glance. Jade fumed.
'like hell you'll get away with that bitch.'
The tension rose and crackled between them. Jade suddenly walked up to Kikyou and stuck her face up to kikyou's.
"listen bitch," jade said, "you stay the hell away from inuyasha got that. He belongs to kagome. Yah got that, or is your skull to thick with clay to understand that?" jade was growling.
Kikyou backed up apprehensively. "what are you talking about? Inuyasha loves me not that weak little girl!"
"you stuck up bitch! How the hell do you have the nerve to say that?" jade slapped Kikyou hard across the face. "first you refuse to believe that inuyasha didn't kill you and that you were turned against each other, second: you are dead, you are a walking clay pot, third: inuyasha doesn't love you, he loves kagome, fourth: you say you love him but you want to drag him to hell although he doesn't own you anything. Do I really need to go on?"
Kikyou stared blankly at jade. "who are you? what makes you think you can talk to me like this?"
Frustrated and angry jade swung her fist and hit Kikyou in the chest. She doubled over in pain and winded.
"GOD! JUST STAY AWAY THE HELL FROM INUYASHA AND KAGOME GOD DAMNIT! OR NEXT TIME I WILL KILL YOU! UNDERSTAND?"
Kikyou whimpered and crawled away.
'hah, from what I've heard I thought she was tough. Guess not.'
Sesshomaru suddenly came out of nowhere and picked jade up just barely sidestepping an arrow that came whizzing by. Jade struggle in Sesshomaru's arms.
"WHAT THE FUCK THAT FUCKING BITCH! LET ME DOWN SESSHOMARU! I'LL RIP HER FUCKING THROAT OUT! YOU HEAR THAT KIYOU? YOU PIECE OF SHIT? I'M COMING FOR YOU!"
Sesshomaru refused to release jade. Kikyou entered the clearing smirking. Her bow was ready and she took aim.
"you were able to doge one of my sacred arrows, but I guarantee you will not escape this one."
She dropped the bow and arrow in the middle of pulling it back. She gingerly touched a hand to the dagger embedded in her chest. Blood seeped out. Jade glared defiantly at Kikyou.
"you should've just left. I told you I would kill you and I meant it. Bitch." She spat. Kikyou turned and fled, blood dripping from the wound and mixing with the rain and puddles.
"ha." Jade said triumphantly. "she won't be back for a while. And when she does come back, I'll be ready." Sesshomaru released jade and she sank to the ground. Sesshomaru knelt beside her. He laid a hand gently on her shoulder.
"are you okay?" he asked.
She took a shaky breath and looked at her hands. "yeah, it's just been a long time since I've killed some one, I know I didn't kill Kikyou, but you never know, she could always bleed to death. I just didn't think I would enjoy that, but oddly enough, I did. Otherwise, I'm okay."
He embraced her lightly, "I'm glad you're okay."
