Sango's trial
Authors Note: I hope you like this chapter, I know I'm gonna have fun writing this Hope you enjoy R&R
Sango had spent the night in the hospital; Inuyasha and Kohaku were put into the same room miraculously, but both being unconscious. Kikyou had fallen asleep next to Inuyasha, her head on the bed her hand never leaving his. Kagome had left around 1, the same time as Miroku, and I brought Sesshomaru with me, for fear of what he might do alone.
Sango yawned; she would be in no shape to go to court today. Sesshomaru tapped her on the shoulder gently. "Come on, you have court today right?" Sango nodded tiredly, "You need to sleep in the car, and I'll drive." Sesshomaru said as him and Sango walked to the car. The brisk cold air blew her hair in the wind; Sango looked at Sesshomaru in gratitude as they hopped into his car.
"Hey Sesshomaru?" Sango said tiredly, as she leaned her head against the window.
Sesshomaru looked at her slightly, "Yea…" Sesshomaru said quietly.
"What happened to you yesterday afternoon?" Sango asked softly.
"Why did you hug me, Why did you stop me?" Sesshomaru asked interrupting her question.
"I…" Sango blushed red as she look down and back up at Sesshomaru, "because…at first I wanted to thank you for what you did…" Sango said, Sesshomaru looked at her "oh…" his voice sounded normal, but his eyes looked so sad. "but, then, When I saw your red eyes, even through the anger…I saw that sadness…The sadness your showing me right now." Sango said placing her hand on Sesshomaru's leg gently, looking up at him seriously.
Sesshomaru looked into her soft brown eyes and saw her sincerity as she spoke "I'll always be here to save you…" Sesshomaru looked at her parting his lips to speak, but nothing came out, Sango smiled, shutting her eyes tiredly and fell into a light slumber.
-------------------------- Round 1 in the courtroom-------------------------------------
Sango sat behind the desk, her hair up in a high pony tail, wearing a womens law form suit. It wasn't up to date at all, it was pretty good mainly for the fact it was old enough to be vintage. She licked her lips nervously as Sesshomaru sat beside her firmly, his long fine silver hair tied back neatly in a pony tail, wearing a more up to date suit, looking just as stunning as his opponent Naraku.
To make the judging fair, instead of having a demon or a human as a judge, to make the trial fair they had a hanyou for a judge. Sango was nervous as hell, she could feel the beads of sweat forming at her bangs. Sesshomaru looked at her chuckling softly, taking her hand gently under the desk. "It'll be okay Sango, Relax" Sango blushed slightly, nodding her head.
Kagome and Miroku had come in to be witnesses if need be, as the hanyou banged furiously on the desk. "Sesshomaru, would you call a witness to the stand?" The hanyou said as Sesshomaru stood up in front of the podium. "The most logical thing is to get both sides of their stories. I call Naraku to the stand!" Naraku snickered as he took a seat in the podium. The bastard looking confident as hell, Sesshomaru matched his look evenly, "Rather lies before the truth your honor." "Sesshomaru question the defendant, if not we're moving on." The judge said annoyingly as Sesshomaru paced back and forth.
"Where were you after school?" Sesshomaru questioned both hands firmly on each side of the podium. Naraku smirked "I was outside of school."
"What were you doing?"
"Waiting"
"For"
"Sango"
"Why?"
"To jump her"
"Why?"
"She insulted me."
"How'd her parents die then, if you were just going to jump her, how'd her brother end up in the hospital?"
Naraku laid back, licking his lips, a look of contentment on his face amusement danced throughout his eyes.
"He confronted me."
"He did?"
"He did."
"Why?"
"He knew I was gonna jump Sango"
"And?"
"And what?"
"You killed him."
"No"
"How'd he die then, you were there, he confronted you then what?" Sesshomaru said angrily his voice booming as the hanyou said nothing.
Sesshomaru pulled back "that's it your honor." Sesshomaru said retaking his seat by Sango. Sango handed Sesshomaru a glass of water, giving him a nervous smile. "Thank you." Sesshomaru nodded as Naraku's lawyer spoke "I call Ms. Sango to the stand."
Sango stood her knees shaky as she walked to the podium taking a seat. "Sango before the end of school, did you insult Naraku?"
"Yes"
"Why?"
"He insulted my friend"
"Why?"
"He's a bastard."
Sesshomaru smiled that girl had guts, and that amazing determination. The whole courtroom was in silence as the lawyer cleared his throat quickly, "Okay moving on. When did you discover your parents' death?"
"After school, right in front of the school"
"Is it possible there death was an accident?"
"No"
"You're sure?"
"Yes"
"How?"
"He was holding my brother by the throat."
"Perhaps you were hysterical."
"I wasn't." Sango said roughly biting her lip angrily.
"It's an upsetting loss and being a human such as yourself…"
"I wasn't! Kohaku is in the hospital for server bruising on his throat. I'll take you too him!" Sango said angrily as the judge banged his hammer on the table.
"This case is more then over."
"What?" Sesshomaru and Sango questioned in union.
"Jury, vote."
The jury was made up of half demons, half humans, having things have an equal balance, The slip of paper passed to the judge, the judge said unfolding the paper. "We find the defendant, Naraku Jr, guilty of the death of Sango's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Tajiya.
"We've done it! Mother, Father you'll be avenged Sango thought happily as she ran up to Sesshomaru embracing him tightly. The judged smirked looking at Naraku "And as your punishment…"
Naraku's eyes widened as the judge spoke in a clear voice. "You're sentenced to…"
