Call of the Spider
Summary: Something or someone calls to Sesshoumaru, and the great dog youkai lord cannot resist the call, so he follows the lure. Yaoi and etc. Warning inside fic.
Author's Note: End of Ficlet, but there is a sequel to this, so look out for it, for it shall come out soon enough! I'm also sorry about the lack of updates, but I've been busy with school, homework, lack of sleep, lack of interest, issues, problems, and blah blah blah etc. I will be updating my other fics as soon as I can, so be patient, please? Thanks!
If you haven't read already, there WILL be a sequel to this ficlet AND I have an account on Adultfanfiction! I will be posting my NC17 fics and uncut chapters there! I have tried, but I couldn't keep up with sending everyone the story, plus it got to be a hassle. On adultfiction, I have the same name. Eventually, I will get to posting Youkai Triangle and the uncut COTS, okay?
Warning: R, YAOI
Disclaimers: I don't own nor do I make a profit off of Inu-Yasha. If this offends you, then just go read something else because the world is full of stuff people don't like, but we can't do anything about it since this is America and I do have the right and FREEDOM OF SPEECH! No one is taking that away from me. That's how it is, hun.
DO NOT READ IF YOU ARE TOO IMMATURE, YOUNG, AND/OR OFFENDED BY YAOI CONTENT, WHICH MEANS MALE DEMONS GOING AT IT!
Epilogue
Sesshoumaru patrolled his expansive lands as usual, Rin and Jaken following behind him, which was how it always were.
Yet something was different about the lord.
He was no longer alone in his head and in his heart.
It was early morn and the air was crisp and fresh, yet Sesshoumaru was the only one out of the three that smelled a strange scent. It smelled like...
Wisely, he kept it to memory, for future reference, need it be, of course. For now, he would not think about it. He would think of other things.
"M'lord, why is the scent of Naraku so heavily drenched upon you so?" Jaken asked most unwisely, especially since there was offence and disgust in his croaky voice.
Sesshoumaru abruptly stopped and stared coldly at Jaken.
"He is my life mate."
"Wha--WHAT?!?!?!" Jaken gaped at him, his insect-like yellow eyes bugging out more than usual.
"You heard me. I will not repeat myself."
Rin was too distracted by a yellow butterfly that had landed on the tip of her nose to notice Sesshoumaru and Jaken's rather lengthy conversation.
"But--but, m'lord!"
"It is not your place to object to my choice, Jaken, nor is it your concern. You are not my father and even if father were here, it would be too late to object. Naraku has marked me and I have marked him. We are bound to each other, forever."
Jaken passed out prompty.
Sesshoumaru simply passed by, leaving the impish toad behind.
Rin trotted up to Sesshoumaru, many questions in her young, negligent eyes.
"Lord Sesshoumaru?" Rin walked alongside him, her small, but adorable face looking up at the towerind inu youkai lord.
He glanced at her, but said nothing.
"You look different, m'lord. You have changed..."
"Why is that, Rin?" Sesshoumaru asked and looked down at her.
"You glow now. You seemed so sad and lonely in the past. Now, you seem happy!" Rin replied, skipping to keep up with his long, graceful strides.
He slowly looked away. His eyes focused on the trail they walked on. He did not answer her, not in words, that is. He knew, that somehow, this child mortal could read him as well as Naraku could. No one else seemed able to read the very seemingly apathetic demon dog. It was almost unsettling.
Rin tugged on his white kimono sleave.
He looked down at her, but he wasn't offended by her rude action, because this was Rin. His little Rin.
"You happy, I happy!" Rin smileda genuine smile; her smile could always melt away the ice that protected his heard. Her smile also said words no language could.
Because of that smile, he had nearly missed that strange scent. He could also feel eyes piercing through him, which both disturbed and alerted him. He was not frightened, but he was on his best guard now, and he did not like the vibes he felt.
Like a mother wolf, or a very protective father wolf, he made sure that his adopted human child was close and visible to him. His hand rested on the hilt of the Toukijin, his thumb slowly sliding the sword out of its sheath a bit.
Rin seemed to sense his distress, so she stayed close and loocked around, boldly daring anything to attack them.
The scent was so close...
Something invisible brushed ever so softly against one of Sesshoumaru's cheeks. It felt like a clawed hand gently caressed his cheek, but all too abruptly as it had come, it had stopped.
Sesshoumaru could have sworn he had heard a quiet sigh or mocking mirth.
The odd scent had disappeared without a trace.
"Rin, did you feel or hear anything?" Sesshoumaru asked as they walked.
"No, my lord. Was I supposed to?" Rin looked confused.
"Let us go now. There is someone significant that you are going to meet."
"What about Jaken?" Rin asked, for she was full of curiousity.
"He will live." Sesshoumaru led her through the forest for hours, although he did stop every now and then so she could rest, since her physical endurance was not nearly as impressive as his own. Eventually though, they came upon Naraku's fortress, the duo unknowingly having no clue as to what they both have gotten themselves into and/or what there was to come in the future.
Sesshoumaru had not an inkling of the Hell that was to come.
Neither did Naraku.
Look out for the SEQUEL to this fic! Yes, there WILL be a Sequel, so don't worry!
