I decided to post 3 chapters today because I hate skewl. I wanted to post as much as I can, before homework time. I needed to unwind a bit. So here is your second chapter before today. I am such a big fat liar, right? I never listen to myself.

Disclaimer: I don't own InuYasha and neither do you.

Chapter 3: Without You

It was night and Sesshomaru was sitting outside. He found out that when he was out, there were rumors that the Lord of the West was dead. He sat there thinking, worrying about his niece and her. The last time he saw her was when he pushed her out of the way and took the charge for her. "Sango thinks I'm dead. I must leave as soon as possible. Who knows if that bastard died. I need to leave but Rin..." He looked at the moon. "What should I tell her?" He didn't want to hurt her feelings too. "But I must leave tomorrow."

"Tomorrow?" A small sad voice said. Sesshomaru turned his head to see Rin in the doorway. "But you just woke up today. Why do you have to leave so soon?"

"Because someone out there needs to know that I am not dead."

"Oh. Rin was hoping you would stay for a while."

"I can't. This person can be in trouble. Don't get me wrong Rin. I would love to stay but..."

"But you miss this person?" She turned around. She started to cry a bit.

"Rin. I promise that I'll visit you as soon as I can. I'll even stay for a bit longer."

"Really?"

"Really."

She wiped away her tears. "You promised and you can't break your promise now."

"I won't." Sesshomaru got up. "It's late. It's time for you to go to bed."

"Awe." She moaned. Sesshomaru ushered her inside. "Good night Sesshomaru-sama."

"Good night Rin." He patted her on her head. She slammed into his leg before running of to bed. Sesshomaru went to his sleeping quarter and laid down. He looked at the ceiling. "Sango..." He whispered before drifting asleep.

Kaede's Village
Sango was outside looking at the moon. Shida didn't return yet and everyone was asleep. She had his boa wrapped around her. She was thinking about the man from her dream when...

"Sango..." The wind whispered. She turned her head to see is anyone called him. She got up and clutched the boa tighter.

"Hello?!" She looked around some more. "Did someone call me?"

Silence...

"I must be imagining things." She sadly turned around and headed for the hut. "It can't be him because he's dead."

Rin's Village
It was all to quiet in the village when a blood-curdling scream pierced the air. Sesshomaru woke up and ran outside. "Demon!" People cried as they ran away. He went back inside to grab the Elemental Blade.

"Rin! Where are you!" He ran as her looked for her frantically. He heard the demon roared.

"Where is he! I know he's here!" everyone rushed past him.

"Rin! Where are you?!"

"Sesshomaru-sama!" He heard her cry. He looked to see the demon holding her in mid-air.

"You smell of him! Where is he?!" the demon boomed in her ear.

"Put her down, now!" Sesshomaru pointed the sword at the demon.

"Ah. There you are. I knew you were here. So the rumors were wrong. You're not dead but it seems that you're a bit weakened ever since that day."

"I said put her down or else."

"Or else what?" He still held Rin.

"Please, let me go!" Rin cried.

"Put her down of I will kill you."

"Ha!" The demon laughed. "You can't kill me! You just a plain ningen."

"I may be ningen but that doesn't mean I can still kick you ass."

"Fine. Have it your way." He threw Rin at him. Rin slammed in to him and collided on a side of a hut.

"Rin, are you ok?" Sesshomaru coughed.

"Yes, because of you." She got up. "Sesshomaru-sama, watch out!" Sesshomaru turned his head too late. The demon grabbed him by the head.

"I can't wait to kill you, then I don't have to worry no more." The demon punched him in the gut a couple times before tossing him like a rag doll.

"Sesshomaru-sama!"
