Hello. I am happy to be back. What will Sesshomaru do? Well, we are about to find out.

Chapter 2

Sesshomaru's past love

"Satsuki? You're alive?" I looked over at the toad-like creature.

"Satsuki? No, I'm Sakura, Sakura Sukaki." Sesshomaru stared with emotionless cold eyes.

"Emotionless as ever. Will you ever change Fluffy?" His eyes widened and so did mine.

'Where did that come from?' I thought.

"My Lord?" Sesshomaru glared at me.

"You're coming with me." He said, grabbing me around the waist. He leapt into the woods swiftly before I could even scream. Jaken ran after us as fast as he could.

"Hey! Put me down! Put me down Sesshomaru!"

Shippo's POV

I stared at Miroku, who seemed to be stunned beyond all reason.

"Miroku! How could you let him take her!" I yelled. He stared in the same direction.

"Shippo!" I heard Kagome's voice call out.

"What happened? I smell Sesshomaru's scent all over this place. And it is mixed in with Sakura's too."

"Miroku let Sesshomaru take her!" I yelled.

"You what!"

Sakura's POV

"Sesshomaru Put me DOWN NOW!" I will give you to the count of three and then you are really going to get it mister. 1…..2……2 1/2 …Ofh!"

"LORD SESSHOMARU!" Came a small child's voice. I looked around to see a small child in an orange kimono running towards us.

"Rin." He said emotionlessly. Rin bowed in glee and gave him a hug.

"My Lord who is this?"

I bent down to her level and smiled.

"My names Sakura." I said happily.

"I'm Rin. It is very nice to meet you. Do you want to help me find some flowers?" Rin asked sweetly. I nodded.

"Sure." Rin took my hand and pulled me along a path. She let go and ran over to a field of different colored flowers.

"Look at these! Aren't they beautiful?" Rin asked holding up a few she had already picked.

"Oh, they are pretty." I looked at the blooming white flowers.

"Hey. I have a great idea Rin. Why don't we make a bouquet of flowers for Sesshomaru?" I suggested. I knew that it would make Rin happy.

"(Gasp) Oh yes! That sounds like a great idea! I'm going to go find some more flowers!" Rin exclaimed happily, and she ran off up the path. I smiled happily at her retreating form.

"(Bu-bump)" My heart thumped in my chest. It was telling me that someone was coming.

I calmly looked around and then turned back to the flowers.

"Trying your hiding tricks again, are we Fluffy?"

"Who's hiding?" I turned around slowly to see Sesshomaru jump out of the trees with such grace.

"Listen, I have no idea why that name keeps popping up in my head every time I see you. I'm sorry, I will try and not say it if it offends you." I said not looking at him.

"You truly are her reincarnation." He said. I finally looked up at him in astonishment.

"Huh?"

"You look like her, a lot." He said

Sesshy's POV

I stared down at her.

'She really does look a lot like her. But she is different. Why do I feel so trusting to her. She has the same effect on me as she once did.'

Sakura's POV

Something, something in his eyes made my heart skip a beat, just now. I don't even know why. Every time I look into his face it skips. But then, a sad feeling, despair almost, surfaces. But I never show it. Because, I don't even know why I feel that way. Does it have something to do with Satsuki?

'Uh? Oh no, I'm blushing!' I withdrew my gaze from him and tried to hide it. I ran over to a patch of blue flowers and put them with the white ones Rin and I had found earlier.

"What are you doing" He asked in his usual tone.

"I'm picking flowers, what's it look like?"

"Sissy!" I looked around to see Rin running towards me and Sesshomaru.

"Look sister, I found these!" Rin said proudly.

"Oh those are beautiful. Those will go perfectly with the bouquet. Just a second and…there!" I arranged the flowers into the bouquet and handed them to Rin, giving her a little push towards Sesshomaru.

"Lord Sesshomaru, I made this for you. Do you like it?" Rin asked anxiously.

Sesshomaru looked down at the flowers and sighed, and he took the flowers from Rin. I smiled warmly at them, a smile that my mother used to give me when I did something like this. Rin looked back at me and smiled as well, then ran up to me and gave me a hug.

"Thank you sissy."

"You're welcome Rin. Do you know how to make a crown of flowers?" Rin shook her head and I persisted in showing her. Once done I placed it on her head.

"There, now you are a princess."

"Wow. I wish you were my mommy. Then we could play all day." Rin sighed. I flushed as thoughts started to enter my head, thoughts of me and Sesshomaru, together. I looked over at Sesshomaru, and even he seemed to be a little pink.

"Uh, Rin, why don't you go find Ai Une and take him to find a field, make Jaken go with you. Tell him if he doesn't, he'll get a serious beating from me."

Rin smiled, knowing that I was kidding and she raced over to Ai Une.

"See you soon!"

Once Rin was gone I turned to Sesshomaru.

"So, flu- I mean Lord Sesshomaru, what troubles you?"

"What are you talking about?"

"Every time you look at me you…" He was now staring straight at me, and was right in front of me.

"I what?"

I blushed and looked away from him.

"Your expression…your eyes show…happiness. And my…heart skips a beat." I said in parts, trying so very hard to hide the increasing redness of my face.

Sesshomaru stared at me for a few minutes. He was silent so I decided that I should just come out and ask him.

"Sesshomaru…who is Satsuki?" He looked to the ground indicating that it was a sensitive area and I didn't press the matter any more.

"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to bring up any painful memories. I won't ask again."

"MY LORD!" The toad like creature named Jaken came running towards us.

"What is it Jaken?"

"My lord, the panther demons, they are coming!" A look of anger grew on Sesshomaru's face. I looked from Jaken to Sesshomaru.

"What's going on?" I asked totally clueless.

"Jaken, are you sure they are coming here?" Sesshomaru asked seriously.

"Yes. And they are here for her!" Jaken said pointing to me.

"Okay, now I'm really confused. Why would they want me?"

"Because they…"

"Jaken!" Sesshomaru scolded. I glared at Sesshomaru.

"Alright, what do you have against me finding out who this person was!" I walked up to him. But when he looked at me, it wasn't a look of anger, but worry. And according to everyone, Sesshomaru's never, ever worried.

"Sesshomaru? Why do you look so worried?"

"Jaken, where is Rin?"

"She is just beyond that boulder me Lord."

"Sesshomaru, it has been far too long." A woman with long ice blue hair, and a white and snow blue kimono came walking out. Sesshomaru stepped forward in front of me.

"Ah so you found her again for us, thank you?"

"What is it you want with her Karon?"

"It is not me who wants her, it is our Prince who wants her. Just as he wanted Satsuki before. He demands her, so you will hand her over to us." The Panther demon named Karon said.

"Wait! What happened to Lady Satsuki!"

"Well, well, well, Sesshomaru, you haven't told her yet? Then I will take the liberty."

"Speak one word, and I will personally cut your tongue out." Sesshomaru said dangerously.

"That's if you can catch me! Now, about Lady Satsuki…"

"Karon!" Sesshomaru yelled charging at her with Tokijen drawn.

"Our Prince, Prince Kazu, ordered us to bring her to him. But she had already fallen in love with someone."

"HOLD YOUR TONGUE KARON!" Sesshomaru shouted swinging at Karon, but she blocked. Sesshomaru seemed really upset. Why? But the more I asked why, the more sadness I felt.

"She had fallen for the Dog general's older son, Sesshomaru. Well, that didn't sit well with the Prince, so he waged war against this land 50 years ago."

"KARON!" Sesshomaru was furious, his eyes were turning blood red. Sesshomaru threw her back with Tokijin.

"And while the lover was fighting in the battle, our prince went to Satsuki, and murdered her. She had refused to marry him so he killed her." Sesshomaru had stopped moving. I was staring at them with misty glazed-over eyes.

Tears welled up in my eyes. That horrible sad that had been building up inside…that feeling I got when I called him that nickname, It's all because she misses him.

"Sesshomaru…I'm sorry. I…didn't know. Every time I call you…and that sad feeling appears, I'm sorry…" I cried on my hands and knees.

"Oh…this is precious. It seems that…"

"Karon, you have said enough. If you don't leave now you will dearly regret it." Karon smirked.

"I'll give you time to say your goodbye. My Lord will be back for her." With that, Karon disappeared into the icy mist. Sesshomaru sheathed Tokijin and walked over to me.

"I'm so sorry. I didn't know…" I sobbed. Rin came running over to me and she knelt down next to me.

"S-Sissy?" Rin hugged my neck. Jaken stood next to Sesshomaru.

"Jaken."

"Yes My Lord?"

"Take Rin and go ahead of us. We will meet you by the river." He said in his usual cold tone.

"Yes My Lord, right away." Obeying him, he took Rin and AiUne towards the river.

Sesshomaru turned to me and knelt down.

"Stop crying." He said gently. My eyes widened and I looked up at him.

Sesshy's POV

She finally looked up at me. Her eyes puffy and red with tears, her soft face streaked with wet stains from the mournful tears she shed. For some reason, it pained me to see her like this. Is it because she looks and acts so much like her? Or is it because she…

"I…" I tried to say something, anything would due, but I can't let my guard down now. Not like I did with her.

"Sesshomaru?" Suddenly she pressed against me. Crying once again, on my chest. It took me by surprise, but I wrapped my arms around her subconsciously. (Yes, he had both arms in my story, even though I know that Inuyasha took it off with Tetsusiaga, but arms, sound better than arm.)

The warmth from her body was…

Sakura's POV

Sesshomaru wrapped his arms around me and pulled me closer to his chest as I cried. The warmth of his touch made me feel safe. It felt like nothing could touch me. I slowly begun to stop crying and I fell asleep, by accident.

General POV

Sesshomaru looked down upon the sleeping Sakura. She was so close to him. He could hear her steady breathing, meaning she was asleep. He picked her up and carried her towards the river.

(A few day's later) (With Inu and the gang)

"Any luck Inuyasha?" Kagome asked. They had been trying to follow Sesshomaru's scent the entire time.

"Kagome…" Miroku said cautiously. She had been mad at him since the day Sesshomaru took Sakura.

"What!" She asked angrily.

"Maybe we should let her and Sesshomaru be for a little bit." He said nervously. Kagome glared death at him.

"Why! He might have already…"

"I am positive that he hasn't. That little creature they call Jaken, called her Satsuki. Maybe this Satsuki person is the entire reason that she's here. Maybe if she can learn about her, then she can find the secret to getting home." Miroku said wisely.

Kagome looked at him for a moment.

"You really think that this could help her?"

"Yes. I am just as worried about our new friend as you are, but I believe that this could help her."

Kagome sighed, and nodded sadly.

"Fine, a few more days." Sango said for Kagome. Kagome looked over at her best friend and nodded.

(With Sakura) (Sakura's POV)

I sat by the edge of the stream, soaking my feet in the clear blue water. Rin splashed around in the water, scaring fish and other aquatic animals away. Jaken stood close by watching over us by order of Lord Sesshomaru, who was currently taking a short trip to the northern woods to see a very old friend. According to Jaken, this friend was Sesshomaru's father's friend since Inutaisho's childhood. (That's Sesshomaru and Inuyasha's father)

I looked around at the scene and took in my surroundings. This was a paradise. The only thing missing was…my family.

The more I thought about them, the more I missed them. Even my annoying little sister Hitomi. (Yes that is Sota's girlfriend) But I really didn't mind staying here longer. My parent's are always out on vacations and business trips. They never really have time to see Hitomi and me, and Hitomi is staying at her friend's house because Mom and Dad had to take another business trip to America. So I would be alone at the house anyway. Once I figure out how to get back home, Kagome and I are going to come up with a way for me to travel back and forth…I hope.

"Sissy! Sissy! Look what Jaken and I caught!" Rin shouted happily, snapping me out of my thoughts. She ran to me, a very large fish in hand.

"Wow Rin, that's awesome! Is that what we are having for dinner?"

"Not just this one, I'm going to catch more fish! Wait right here, I'm going to go get Master Jaken." She giggled with pride as she ran back out to Jaken who was previously just trying to catch a fish.

"Look Rin! I caught it!" Jaken shouted proudly, but suddenly the fish flapped it's tall, hitting him in the face, making it drop back into the water.

I laughed at them happily. I threw my head back to look into the sky. I stared up at the few clouds that were passing by overhead, and smiled.

"This place…is truly a wonderful place."

"Well I'm glad you think so Lady Sakura." Came a cool female voice. Suddenly the temperature dropped and the stream started to freeze over. Rin and Jaken just barely made it out of the water before they were frozen in it. I pulled my feet out and did a back flip away from the freezing stream. Landing from the high back flip was the hard part, I slipped and landed flat on my butt.

"Karon." I hissed.

"I'm flattered you remember me. It is time for you to come." She said taking a step towards me. I backed up for every step she took.

"Sissy!" I could hear Rin and Jaken running towards me.

"Stay back you two!" I shouted at them. Rin stopped dead and Jaken stepped forward.

"K-Karon!"

"Ah, the servant."

"(Bu-bump) My heart pounded indicating that Karon wasn't alone.

Suddenly another panther demon stepped out of the shadows. She had pink flowers in her hair.

"So this is the reincarnation?"

"Shush Shori. Just cast your spell." Karon said sternly.

"Shori nodded and suddenly there was a bitter-sweet smell in the air. I felt so drowsy all of the sudden and then I passed out.

Sesshomaru's POV

When I arrived at the camp, Jaken was lying face down on the rocks next to Rin. But I didn't see Sakura.

I "nudged" Jaken in the side and he jumped awake.

"AH! Uh? Oh no! Lord Sesshomaru!" Jaken said nervously.

"Where is Sakura?"

"Uh…um…"

Suddenly I heard Rin start to cry.

"Sissy was (sob) taken by a woman with (sob) blue hair! K-K-Karon, sissy called her!" Rin cried. I growled angrily.

"Jaken, watch Rin. I will be back soon." And with that I took off as fast as I could.

Sakura's POV

I finally came too. I looked around the room and saw that I was in a bedroom, on a large king sized bed.

'Where the hell am I?'

"Well, well, well, you've finally awaken, my princess." I sat up straight recognizing the voice.

"Kazu!" The panther demon Prince stepped out of the shadows.

"You remember me. My name is Kazu Kanimata."

"So you are one of Kazu's ancestors? Well that would explain a lot about the Kazu I know. Geez, no matter what the hell I do, no matter how far I am away, he always ends up somehow being right there. He's everywhere, I tell ya! I can't get away from the little twirp! My life is just perfect!" I shouted sarcastically falling backwards on the bed.

"Good, because you are going to be my bride." I looked up at him lightning quick.

"What! OH HELL NO! I said no to Kazu to be his girlfriend and I'll say HELL NO to marrying you!" I said throwing my hands into the air.

"You really don't have a choice." Kazu stepped towards me. I scooted back until I hit the wall behind me.

"K-Kazu, you better back up off me or I'll…" He smiled at me and placed his hands on each side of my head against the wall and leaned in.

"Kazu!" His smirk was starting to creep me out.

"My Lord I…oh! Sorry, I didn't mean to disturb you." Karon said. Kazu didn't look over at her though.

"Leave Karon. I'm busy." He said with a hint of anger.

"Yes but, My Lord, Sesshomaru is here. He is coming for you." Karon said worriedly.

"Fine. Let him come. I fear no one." Kazu grinned and Karon left.

"Now, where were we?" He leaned in to kiss me when I reached around and smacked him hard across the face. He stumbled back a little. I breathed deeply as he stared at me with surprise and rage. He rubbed his cheek and scowled.

"You…how dare you hit me. You will be punished and when we are married…"

"Nothing is going to happen because I'M NOT MARRYING YOU KAZU!" I yelled. With demonic speed Kazu glided over to me and backhanded me across the face. From the force of the hit I was thrown backwards into the wall, a dent where I hit and landing on my stomach. The pain in my cheek stung badly and my back ached from the impact.

"No one ever touches me, let alone hits me without consequence. That's why Satsuki died! She fought back so I killed her. I loved her but she fought back, and I don't like that." My eyes widened in shock. I slowly tried to pick myself up but Kazu stepped on my back forcing me back down. He turned me over and sat on top of me. With one of his claws he ripped part of my uniform, making it show a lot of cleavage.

"Now, how about that kiss?" Laying down on top of me, he lowered his face down but I turned away from him.

"Wench! You will be cooperative!" I screamed in agony, as I felt sharp searing pain come to my side.

"Kisama." I growled low in my throat.

"Bitch!" Another pain to my side. He was digging his claws into my side.

"Agh…I will never cooperate with a baka bakayaro!" At this Kazu forced his lips upon me but only got my cheek. There was no in the 7 hells that my first kiss was going to be from him.

"Grr, I grow tired of your ignorance." He growled. He was about to try and hit me again when…

"KAZU GET OFF OF HER! NOW!" I looked over at the door to see Sesshomaru.

"Sesshomaru!" I cried happily. Kazu stood up and dragged me off the bed by my hair.

"Sesshomaru, have you really come to just save this wench?"

"…" Sesshomaru just glared at him.

"Speechless are we? You know, I think that you enjoy seeing her like this. Seeing her soft pure skin cut and torn. Or is it that the mighty Lord Sesshomaru has fallen in…"

"Finish that sentence and it will be your head."

"So it is true. Ha, you know, the resemblance to Satsuki is striking. Wouldn't you agree?" He lifted my head and licked my neck. (EEEEEEEEWWWW! Gross!)

Sesshomaru glared daggers at him.

"You know, it would be so easy to mark her right now." Kazu teased matter-of-factly, and he licked my neck again. For the second time I saw Sesshomaru's pupils shrink and his eyes narrow. Seriously, if looks could kill, Kazu would be dead.

"Ow, I think that look really hurt. Oh well, finders keepers." Kazu bared his fangs and began to lower his head to my neck when, SPLAT!

Blood splattered everywhere from his forehead.

"H-how did you…do…that…"Kazu collapsed to the floor, dead. I stood shaking on the spot, eyes, wide as dinner plates, horrified, blood all over my face and neck.

"S-Sesshomaru?"

"I didn't just come for you. You just happened to need saving." He said turning.

"There is a hot spring nearby. Rin has your bag." He continued and without another word he walked out.

Hello. Okay, I know that was a little graphic and I apologize. But I think it adds a good support for my future chapters. No, there is not a whole lot of this kind of gore, but I thought it added pasaze to my story. Anyway, I'll see you in the next chapter. Sayonara.
