The great Lord of the Western lands was doing something unheard of for him.
He was smiling and laughing, and it wasn't because someone was being
brutally murdered by one of his minions.
The cause of his so called happiness was a young woman named Rin, who at
the time of
Kikyou's departure jumped in to fill her place.
Sesshomaru couldn't believe he had been so blind while in pursuit of Kikyou
as not to notice Rin.
He couldn't think of a time when he had been so happy, until of course one of his underlings knocked so rudely upon his bedroom chamber door. "Lord! Lord! Something terrible has happened! Come quickly!" Sesshomaru jumped quickly from his seat, closely followed by Rin.
"I'm coming, damn wench." He growled.
He opened the door to see one of the tailor's apprentices in tears, her fine kimono in disarray and her eyes frantic. "What the hell happened? This better be important." Sesshomaru glared at the girl. He believed her name was Aki or something but didn't really care.
"Kei-san has gone missing! I cannot find her anywhere!" Aki started to sob because she knew what it meant if Kei was gone...
Sesshomaru let out a roar of rage and knocked a lamp onto the floor where it shattered into a million shimmering shards.
"How could you let her disappear you bitch? You know what bad things could happen to us if she is out of the grounds! She is a very powerful enchantress. Stupid wench! I bet that bitch Kei escaped. She always talked about how much she wanted to be free again..." He trailed off then glared at Aki again. Aki cowered under his gaze and started to shake from fear. "She... she couldn't get out on her own. She was placed in a trap! Only a powerful priestess could undo the many spells that bound her here!" "What did you say?!" Sesshomaru roared, eyes gleaming with hatred. "Damn that Kikyou bitch! She must have been the one who set her free! Kei could be anywhere! We need to get her back!"
Kei walked closer to the demon, her eyes never leaving him for a second. She didn't trust him at all. He bore an uncanny resemblance to the Lord she had served under for so many years. How she despised that lord, the mere thought of him made her shudder with revulsion. He kept her as a play- thing, using her magic to protect his secrets and hide his most precious things. The Lord had never thought she would have the nerve to escape so he told her many important secrets that could bring him crashing down. What luck that Kikyou had unknowingly walked in, and had been injured. Kei was just barely able to use her power to make Kikyou think that she was just a low leveled enchantress, and if the priestess had been well Kei would have never succeeded. Then she had tapped into Kikyou's power and used her to undo the many charms and curses binding Kei to the dreaded Lord's manor.
