If all the anime suddenly disappeared from the world, wouldn't it be a terrible:
Tragedy
"Lord Sesshoumaru?"
Rin's voice broke in upon the demon lord's thoughts. He looked up to see the dingy brown walls of the small hut where they'd stopped for the night. Of course, Sesshoumaru and Jaken were used to sleeping out in the open, so it was for the girl's sake they were staying there.
"You should be resting, Rin," chided Sesshoumaru mildly. "What is it?"
"Well...I was just...I mean..." Rin trailed off uneasily.
"Yes?"
"I wanted to ask you...you're not going to leave me, are you?" burst out Rin.
Sesshoumaru turned to her quizzically, wondering why she should ask such a thing. Rin gazed at him with fear and hope in her eyes.
"Because, well, you know, my parents are gone, and the villagers hated me, and...I don't want you to leave me, too."
Sesshoumaru's eyes softened. He didn't know why, but he couldn't help but care for Rin. "No, Rin, I will not leave you. For as long as you want, you may stay with me."
Rin gazed at him gratefully. "Thank you, Lord Sesshoumaru."
Sesshoumaru gave the smallest half smile in return. "Do not worry, Rin. Now go to sleep. You need rest."
"Yes, Lord Sesshoumaru." Rin laid back down, her eyelids suddenly heavy, and drifted into deep, easy sleep.
Rin's eyes snapped open, and she was left wondering what had caused her abrupt awakening. Her queries were answered as something slammed into one side of the hut. She looked up in time to see Sesshoumaru leap forward and slash through the wall. After a few moments, the dust cleared and settled, and they saw standing there the most horrific creature any of them had ever seen.
It was about the size and shape of a man, covered in black fur and with long, black hair. Its golden eyes shone in the darkness, but most terrible of all were the two fangs protruding from its mouth, dripping some acidic green fluid. It gave off an aura of pure evil.
"Lord Sesshoumaru?" said Jaken hesitantly.
"Jaken, take Rin and go. Do not come back until the sun has risen," said Sesshoumaru in a steely tone. Then, seeing them hesitate, he yelled, "Go! This is no place for you!"
"Come, Rin!" said Jaken and tugged at her sleeve.
"No! I won't leave Lord Sesshoumaru," Rin cried and shoved Jaken away.
"Jaken, get Rin away from here now!" snapped Sesshoumaru as the black demon advanced, breathing noxious fumes as it came.
Jaken looked worriedly from one to the other, then stepped back. "Rin, I'm sorry about this!"
"Sorry about wha..." THUD. Rin blacked out and fell.
Rin awoke in a grassy clearing, and immediately sat up. The sun was rising over the trees.
"What happened? Where's...?" Rin began wildly. Jaken turned to her. "What did you do?" she demanded.
"Rin, please don't be angry! I had to obey Lord Sesshoumaru, so I knocked you out!" stammered Jaken.
"Why you warty green..." Rin started, and then looked up. "The sun is up! We can start back now!" she said, "We have to find Lord Sesshoumaru!"
"But..."
"Come on!" Rin grabbed Jaken's arm and dashed away through the woods.
"Lord Sesshoumaru?" called Rin as they came back to the hut, now in ruins. "Lord Sesshoumaru?" She and Jaken trudged through the flattened wreckage. The horrible black demon lay dead a little way off. Jaken walked ahead of Rin, and came to a sudden stop.
"Jaken? Why..." then she saw a white heap on the ground. Her heart stopped. "Lord Sesshoumaru!" She dashed to her fallen lord's side. He lay with his arms at strange angles. His eyes were shut.
"Lord Sesshoumaru! Get up! We're back!" She shook his body. "Lord Sesshoumaru?"
He did not stir. It was then that she spotted a small puncture wound on his neck that oozed green venom.
"Get up! Please get up!" Rin gasped, tears flowing down her face. "Lord Sesshoumaru..." She dashed a hand across her eyes. "Don't leave me."
"Rin..." said Jaken gently, a quaver in his voice."I think he's gone."
"NO!" Rin screamed. Then her voice softened to a whisper. "No. He'll be back. He said he…he'd stay. We just have to wait." She pushed a few stray hairs off of Sesshomaru's face, then curled up against his cold body to wait for her lord to awaken.
The End
A/N: Aren't tragic character deaths fun? Of course with my liking for them I had to kill somebody for Tragedy. And making it Sesshoumaru made it even better by adding in Rin's reaction. It is my opinion that any story featuring Rin and Sesshoumaru requires a bit of reading into and fabrication on their relationship, at least on Sesshoumaru's part. Who knows what his real attitude toward her is? There must be something there, since he normally hates humans. I think the idea for the poison demon came from the picture on one of my brother's Duel Monster cards. Oo; Go figure.
Thanks for reading and please review.
