Chapter 3

Five days had pasted since Jaken had left. That meant five days without herbs, a long with a healer. Five days of pain and suffering. Five days to see her. Five days of wondering why.

Sesshomaru had gone into Kagome's room over the time that she had been staying at his home. It was becoming hard to see her let alone to enter the room. The girls powers of purification had started to become stronger and had now engulfed the room. That had all started two days ago, but it was almost to the point ware he couldn't enter at all. Rin had now problems. She was trying her best to keep the dieing women alive.

It seemed to be working when they first came home with Kagome, but it had become dramatically worse over the last two days. Sesshomaru feared Rin would be grieving all too soon. It was clear this woman had not will to live.

He walked down the hall way to Rin's room to find that the girl was not within. Knowing all to well where she had gone, he started off to the room of a dieing soul. When he got there the door was already open. Sesshomaru peered in to see Rin working away on the injuries the women had. Rin had become very accustomed to treating wounds that he himself received or what Jaken managed to get.

Kagome had a large head wound that went from the middle of her forehead to the far end of her right eye brow. Her lower stomach was torn in many different places, but the largest and deepest was straight across. A deep whole was cut into her right shoulder, and looked to be form a spear. Her left arm was scraped and broken.

Sesshomaru found it odd that the women had survived as long as she had. To him all humans would have been too weak. Even his lovely little Rin.

"Rin its time for Dinner." The young women looked up form her work and smiled at him.

"Alright my Lord. I'll be there as soon as I'm finished here."

Dinner came and went. Rin had gone back to her peasant and was once again working hard on the wounds. When she had finished she went off to bed. Sesshomaru was about to do the same, but first he bathed and driest for bed.

It was only midnight when he was awoken by loud screams and crying coming from down the hall.

Sesshomaru knew the source of the screams all to well. He went off in the direction of witch they came. It was coming from the all too popular room in his castle for the last five days. The room Rin was in.

As he made his way down the hall to the room Sesshomaru feared what may be awaiting him when he got there.

Her tears flowed down the lovely young woman's face with nothing to great them, but the stone cold grave that was the floor. The tears were a sign of love and that love had been violently ripped away by death. A great loss to the young woman. She knew the word death all to well.

All you could make out of the screams that were caused by the pain was the word "Why!" She repeated it over and over as if she would never stop.

Rin was on the floor sitting on her knees with her head in her hands. Her cloths soaked along with the floor from the girls salty tears.

He wanted to go and make her heart ache go away, but he knew he could never take something so great. The pain would all ways remain.

The girl, who had been shaking violently from the sobs, became silent. She didn't speak, nor did she move. She just stayed were she was on the floor. Sesshomaru didn't know what to think. Rin was always full of emotion, and would never end it like this. It was just too quickly to be over this.

Sesshomaru looked over to the only furnisher in the room, the function. On it laid a non-moving body. The source of all this pain that Rin was going through.
