Chapter Five

I had to get away, away while he's sleeping. I got up and ran for it. It was dark and I couldn't tell where I was going. I ran into something hard, yet it was fluffy. I looked up and gasped. I saw a demon with slivery white hair and had an all white outfit. He looked down at me, his tail flipping in the background.

"Who are you?" he asked. I was helpless. Inuyasha made me come here alone and weaponless. "Answer me mortal!"

"I am the priestess Kikyo." The man looked stunned, but then gave an evil smirk. He even laughed a little.

"The same priestess that Inuyasha is dating."

"Yes, please help me. I need to get away from him." He observed me for awhile and then made his decision.

"You will come with me."

"Sir may I ask your name." He thought about this for a while.

"My name is Lord Sesshoumaru. Now come." He made a cloud around his feet. I had only two choices; to stay with Inuyasha, which I know would hurt me, or go with this stranger, which could hurt me. I didn't have much of a choice. "Time's up." He wrapped his tail around my whole body, binding me to his chest. He began to levitate and soon we left the ground. As we got as high as the tips of the trees Inuyasha woke up. He looked up and looked straight into my eyes. His eyebrows furrowed.

"Sesshoumaru! You bring her back here!" He laughed as we vanished into the sky. Inuyasha was howling madly. I had never seen him so pissed. "I will follow you to the ends of this earth to kill you!" We were souring through the sky together, the light wind blowing my hair back. I was free. I was happier than I had been in days. But now worry struck me. Inuyasha knew this Lord Sesshoumaru. Was this demon a mad man? What had he done to Inuyasha? Why did he get so pissed?

We landed softly on the ground. I stumbled as I tried to stand up straight. I'm not sure I had made a very wise choice. "Who are you?" I asked. He walked closer to me and I fell backwards to get away from him.

"I've told you. My name is Lord Sesshoumaru."

"I know that, who are you and what do you have to do with Inuyasha?" He began to laugh a sinister laugh. I was a bit frightened.

"I am the owner of these lands. My father ruled this place until he had died. It is Inuyasha fault that he died. I want to cause him enough pain to get him back." His eyes showed me his loathing for Inuyasha.

"How did Inuyasha cause your fathers death?" I asked. He did not answer. He was pondering whether to tell me or not. He knew as much as me as I do him. He smirked and decided to answer.

"He just was born." I was puzzled. Nothing made sense. I decided to continue to ask more question.

"I don't understand." He sighed.

"Sit down. It's a long story." I did not sit. I still did not trust him. "I said sit!" He whipped his tail around me once more and I fell to the ground. "Do I have your attention?" I nodded my head. "Well, it all started with a mortal. My father had fallen in love with a mere mortal just like yourself." I huffed. I didn't feel like being insulted at a time like this. Wait! My heart skipped a beat. He called me a mere mortal. He thinks I am an average woman. He does not know what I do for a living. This was a nice change for once. "My mother was killed in battle and he replaced her with a mortal of all things." He scowled. I could tell he didn't like mortals too much. "When they had fallen in love he had got her pregnant. When their child was born all the demons where after my father because he had a half-demon son. He went into battle to kill the man who had killed his love. He died an unnecessary death to protect his woman and his child."

I was confused. I didn't get how this was related to Inuyasha. "I'm sorry, I don't understand." I said. He scowled again.

"My father had gotten killed all because Inuyasha was born." I gasped. I finally understood. "If he had never been born that man wouldn't have fought him and he wouldn't have died." For some strange reason I felt sorry for him. "I really loved my father." He continued. "If that stupid half-breed had never been born he would be here. I am ashamed to call him my brother. He is just like dirt under my shoes, but I shouldn't insult dirt now should I." He almost looked like he was going to cry, but he recovered quickly. "You are to stay with me until I think Inuyasha has had enough torture." I agreed and I sat there watching him. How could I sleep after a day like this?
