The Day Is Done
Come, read to me some poem,
Some simple heartfelt lay,
That shall sooth this restless feeling,
And banish the thoughts of day.
Sesshou-maru was shocked at his reaction.
"Naraku?" he said, reaching out to nothing. Naraku batted his hand away.
"I... I must go." He said and got up to leave. Sesshou-maru reached forward to grab him, but all that touched his hand was a tinny little teardrop.
"Damnit!" Naraku shouted, banging his hand agents the wall. Why did I do that? Why did I save that man? "Why, why, why??!!!" shouted Naraku. This is so unlike me he thought.
He sighed and straightened out his hapi. He turned around and went back to Sesshou-maru's room and walked in. He was glad the demon could not see himself. He was covered in bandages and bruises. Cuts scared his perfect complexion, and bandages covered his amber eyes. Oh, that's right.
"Has your eyesight returned?" Naraku asked. Sesshou-maru looked slightly at Naraku.
"It's kind of hard to tell with these bandages on my face." Sesshou-maru said bitterly. He looked away. "I'm sorry. That was rude of me."
....Sesshou-maru?
"Well, lets take them off than." Said Naraku, walking toured Sesshou- maru. Sesshou-maru looked in his direction. He heard Naraku's footsteps getting closer, and his hand grip his shoulder. He leaned his face closer to Naraku as he felt him remove the bandages from his face.
Naraku lightly touched his chin and pulled his face close to his own.
"Can you... see me?" he asked. Sesshou-maru frowned slightly.
"No..."
"Oh...I see."
Sesshou-maru sighed and touched Naraku's hand. He heard Naraku gasp. He knew he was blushing, but he didn't care. The disappointment was too much. He wanted to see so he wouldn't feel vulnerable, so he could get away if he needed to, so he could see Naraku. He closed his eyes.
"Naraku, what color eyes do you have?"
"Oh ya! And why should we trust you?" Inu-yasha scowled at Naraku's incarnation.
"Because I'm the only one who knows ware he lives." Kagura said smiling mischievously.
"I don't know, how do we know you won't turn on us?" said Miroku stepping in front of Kagome.
"Listen, I have my own reason for hating Naraku. And I know that you all do as well. But I can't kill him. And the one that could have is... um..." Kagura stopped.
"What? Who?" Kagome asked.
"Sesshou-maru, any way..." Kagura started, but was cut off yet again.
"Sesshou-maru? What do you mean could have? I know Sesshou-maru isn't as strong as well, me, but he could give Naraku a run for his money!" Inu- yasha said. "He's not... dead is he? Shit! I wanted to kill him!"
"He's not dead!" Kagura said,"He, he's been kidnapped by Naraku. Naraku has been drugging him in the day time, Sesshou-maru can't see, and the drugs are...."
"He's been... drugging him?" Inu-yasha said. "I don't like my brother, but... Sesshou-maru does have his dignity!" Inu-yasha said angrily.
"Its worse," Kagura said, looking away from him. "The drugs are making him... woozy, and its... he can't... resist."
"Resist?" Kagome said. "Resist what?"
"Oh... my god..." Inu-yasha said. "That.... That bastard!"
"Resist what?!" Kagome shouted.
"He...he's drugging him at day so, he can...take advantage, of him at night." Inu-yasha said looking down.
"Oh, Inu-yasha I..." Kagome started, but Inu-yasha interrupted her.
"Kagura! Take me to Naraku's castle!!!"
"What?" Naraku said, blushing. "Umm... my eyes?"
"Yes, your eyes. Id like to try to imagine them..." Sesshou-maru said.
"Um...there scarlet..." Naraku said blushing.
"Hmm..." Sesshou-maru moved Naraku's hand so that he held Sesshou- maru's cheek. "How pretty..." Naraku flushed.
"Se.... Sesshou-maru? Are you feeling ok?" Naraku asked.
"No..." Replied the silver haired Yokai. "Its...its so dark. I... I'm all alone. In this... oblivion...." he reached out and touched Naraku's face.
Naraku blushed and repented. He didn't like this. Not at all. Why was Sesshou-maru acting so strange?
"Please, can I see what you look like? I may not be able to see it, but id like to imagine...." said the daemon lord.
That's right, when he appeared in front of Sesshou-maru, he was in his baboon pelt, so he hadn't seen him.
"Um... ok." Naraku said, his face as red as beet.
Sesshou-maru slid his hand over Naraku's nose, not failing to leave Naraku in goosebumps, trailing down and brushing agents his lips. He herd Naraku gasp, and pulled his hand back, but for only a moment.
Sesshou-maru reached forward again and placed his hand on Naraku's cheek, moving slightly to the side placing it on his ear, than rested his other hand on his neck, and felt him shudder.
"Oh wow," said Sesshou-maru. "Your...beautiful..." and with that, he fell forward, and fell asleep in Naraku's arms.
Naraku looked down at him. He was... So innocent when he slept. Was this really the fearsome yokai lord he had betrayed not to long ago? The same one that attacked him with the blue fires of hell burning in his eyes? Why is he acting so strange?
And yet, Naraku couldn't even imagine the empty loneliness of the black world the Yokai lord had been damned to.
"You must, be so scared." Naraku whispered. He clutched the yokai lord closer to himself. Truthfully, Naraku didn't know the poison used that stole the daemon's eyesight. Naraku supposed it was a paralyzing poison. When Sesshou-maru had been paralyzed, the poison had been thrown into his eyes, so Naraku mostly just supposed that since the poison was thrown there it had blinded him.
Naraku looked outside. The moon shone brighter than he had seen it in a long time. 50 years. No. Ever since he had been 'born', from the many daemons, Naraku had been alone. All alone. And now, Sesshou-maru was alone. All alone. In the darkness that is devouring him, taunting him. Killing him.
Naraku sighed and held the yokai lord tighter. Sesshou-maru had been concerned when he had sung the song Onigumo had learned from that priestess. That melody. It pulled at his heartstrings and played constantly in his mind. Playing constantly. As though the very notes themselves were binding him and pulling him ever closer to the break in his sanity.
She had sung it over and over again when she took care of the bandit. Onigumo had learned it quite easily. The daemons had devoured his body, not his memory. It had been passed on to Naraku. All the memories. The song and the heartache that filled it. The melody that drove Onigumo through the inner pits of hell and mutation.
"You deserve better than this." Said Naraku out loud, surprising even himself. "The darkness, it's lonely but.... Let's drown in our loneliness... together."
And Naraku smiled, and fell asleep.
So! How did you like it? Dun worry, I have no intention of stopping the fic until I end it. That made no since....OH WELL!!!! I liked this one. I think it's really cute. Send me reviews and tell me what you think! JA NE!
