This Boy's Life
The battle is over, but he can still smell it in the air.
The girl named Sango is kneeling next to the body of the boy who was her brother, tears streaming down her face. Sometimes, she looks up to give him accusing looks through her tears.
Foolish human, Sesshoumaru thinks, and turns to leave. But then, Rin is there, tugging at his sleeve, not looking accusing or angry or even sad at all, but smiling at him. Trusting him.
And he knows then that he has no choice. Drawing Tenseiga, he turns around and walks up to the boy.
