Where Sesshomaru found Rin and Jaken
"M' lord Sesshomaru you're back!!!!!!!!!!!!" exclaimed an excited beyond belief Jaken.
"Where is Rin, Jaken?" Sesshomaru said looking around wildly.
"She went to pick some flowers."
"Go fetch her."
"Yes m' lord." Jaken said scurrying off to fetch Rin. A moment later an ecstatic Rin was running toward Sesshomaru.
"Lord Sesshomaru!!!!!!!! Is the person you went after okay." she said looking up and up into his face that was revealing nothing.
"Yes they are okay. We must go back to Inuyasha's to make sure they are okay." he spat Inuyasha out as if it were gum on his shoe.
"Okay."
"Jaken did you here me? We must be on our way back she will be asking for me?"
"Who will be asking for you? You didn't tell me they were a girl."
"Why would that matter?" Jaken snapped at the shocked Rin
"N-n-no reason." she said looking anywhere but Sesshomaru and Jaken but failed and ended up staring at both. Her feeling blazing in her eyes like a beacon. But thankfully Jaken didn't notice and Sesshomaru couldn't understand the deep twisting feelings of the 15 year old girl so neither knew how she felt. Then they started off to the village.
At the hut in the village
"Kagome, Sorphasha wants to see the Sunlight can I take her outside?" asked Shippo
"Don't go far and take Miroku with you." Kagome said trying to get a cat-hanyou to talk to her.
"Yes Kagome." he said "Miroku will you carry Sorphasha outside."
"Sure." he said cradling Sorphasha in his arms like a baby. He carried her out of the hut with Shippo at his heels. He carried her over to a small oak tree he laid her down with her head and back resting against the trunck of the oak.
"Shippo I see the sky. It's so beautiful. Is it real?" Sorphasha said staring at the pale blue sky with clouds of purple and pink and turquoise from the sun light dancing across the sky.
"Yes it is real Sorphasha." he said sitting next to her, looking at the sky. Miroku was a yard away also looking at the sky.
"I haven't seen something this beautiful, that was real, in a long time. What I can remember of my village is very… vague." Shippo stared at the Hanyou he couldn't believe that she could speak thus, as if she was wise beyond years. As if she saw things a whole different way because she saw the sunlight. Shippo looked into the Hanyou's deep blue, never ending eyes. They looked as if they held the secrets of both past and future within their depths, which only the idiotic brave one would dare to seek what was within those depths. Her eyes sent him a warning, "Do not seek what you do not understand. Do not try to understand the magic within my soul because you will not understand. The very thought of what lies within my soul sends the bravest men and demons running blind stumbling in the dark shaking frantically with fright. Do not seek what will send you running. You think you understand but you do not. You know not of the future, past, or present you never can and never will." Sorphasha quickly looked away knowing what he saw, knowing what he knew.
"Sorphasha are you okay?" he whispered
"I'm fine." she whispered, tears forming in her eyes. One escaped her control and ran silently down her cheek. Shippo wiped away the tear, but Sorphasha flinched away.
"I would never hurt you, Sorphasha." Shippo whispered looking into her never-ending eyes. To him they were beautiful pools of morning blue sky. What am I doing? he thought Why am I saying these things? It's as if I cant hold my tongue. Shippo thought
On Sesshomaru's journey towards the village
The walked on and on, and Rin's legs grew tired. But she didn't complain because she knew it would irritate Sesshomaru. But he knew that her legs hurt because she was walking funny. "Were almost there, Rin." Sesshomaru said "We'll be there in three or four hours, I promise."
Back under the tree with Shippo and Sorphasha
"Shippo How can I believe such a promise. Every man has the same intention. I don't even know if I can trust my own father and brothers, Shippo. I'm afraid of them. You're the only one I'm not so scared of. When that man picked me up I cringed with fear." Sorphasha said staring at the sky. Once again she had surprised him with her words of truth.
"It might not seem a promise of truth. But I'll keep it if I can and if I hurt you I'd never do it on purpose never. I-I-I thought that they only did th-that to Arowgodin." he said
"They did it to whom ever they wanted. She got it the worst. But it still haunts me. It haunts my every move my every thought my every dream. I wake up with out a sound hoping no one notices. I relive those moments every day. Shmitsoru was lucky. He was a boy. They didn't want him. There was no women in their tribe." she pat tribe out bitterly as if it were a deadly plague. "I'm so sorry." he said in dismay
"Not your fault." she said silent tears, that she couldn't hold back, rolling down her face. She drifted off into a daze looking at the sunset. After a few minutes she looked around her and saw Shippo. She stared at Shippo with fearful eyes, she scooted painfully away; as if she didn't know where she was or who Shippo was.
"Sorphasha?" Shippo looked afraid "It's me Shippo." he said staying deadly still. Then something came into her eyes. It was a flicker of light a flicker of hope of life. Then he saw tiny picture in her eye. It was his face but it was tiny and it was within the glowing spark in her eye.
"Oh… Shippo." she turned and faced the sunset. Her eyes werwe no longer glowing with the flicker or the picture of his smiling face. They were the same blue twisting, rivers meeting with an ocean with hidden depths as they were when he looked into them and saw the warning and complication of them.
Inside the hut
"Kagome, is she okay?" Inuyasha asked staring at Arowgodin.
"She will be. Once Sesshomaru gets back." Kagome answered. Earlier Kaede had went out and gathered a mixture of the herbs wolf's claw, honeysuckle, and heather and mixed them with water then set it to dry. Kagome was now grinding this into a then powder and putting it into some warm water. She then took it over to Arowgodin, she tipped a little of the herbal mixture into Arowgodin's mouth forcing her to swallow it. Just then Sesshomaru walked in with Rin and Jaken at his heels.
"Is she okay?" Sesshomaru asked looking at the helpless, wide-eyed Arowgodin, that was staring at him.
"Sesshomaru, you've come back. It's been so long. What has it been, 59 years since I've seen your smiling face, that day you told me to stay in the forest I do believe." she said weakly
"So it has. Are you okay? I'll kill who ever did this to you." He was suddenly at her side sitting on his knees.
"But you already have 59 years ago. Did you know he came back? Did you know the big black one was him?" she said barely being able to whisper. Sesshomaru looked at her as if she had slapped him across his beautiful pale face.
"No I didn't. This is news to me." he said calmly.
"You're so serious now. You haven't smiled since you've been here. I miss your beautiful boyish grin that melted my heart so long ago." she whispered, her whisper barely being louder than a breath. Inuyasha, Kagome, Kaede, Jaken, and Rin just stared wonderingly at what the Hanyou said.
"There is nothing to smile about." Sesshomaru insisted.
"There is always something to smile about." the Hanyou said in a distant voice. Then Miroku and Shippo came in. Sorphasha limping, putting all her weight on Shippo. (Have I mentioned Sorphasha was the same size as Shippo, just slightly shorter? Well if I haven't I have now)
"Shippo, why is she walking?" Kaome chastised Shippo.
"She wouldn't let Miroku carry her." then Kagome took Sorphasha in her arms like a baby and laid her on her mat.
The other Hanyous were getting better. Soon Kagome found out that all the Hanyous that were girls had suffered through the same treatment as Arowgodin. Thus making every one of them cringe away from the touch of men. Kagome went on trying to put their spirit and body back together piece by piece. But out of all of these Sorphasha was the only one making any progress. She trusted Kagome and didn't fight what had to be done. The others didn't trust anybody and fought with everything. Kagome worked with Sorphasha most of the time ,while Kaede worked with the others it turned out she could get them to cooperate somehow. Shippo watched on and worried about the complicated fox-Hanyou. Sango and Miroku did what they were told and Sesshomaru and his little group stayed out of the way. Sesshomaru sitting by Arowgodin while Rin and Jaken stayed outside.
"M' lord Sesshomaru you're back!!!!!!!!!!!!" exclaimed an excited beyond belief Jaken.
"Where is Rin, Jaken?" Sesshomaru said looking around wildly.
"She went to pick some flowers."
