Chapter 2: Realization

Wind whipped through long white-silver hair. Sesshomaru ran at full speed to see what was troubling Rin. Not only that, he could have sworn that he heard his late daughter's horrified scream. Thoughts raced through his head. Is she…… Could she still be alive. Nonsense you saw her body get buried yourself it cant be her. But what in the world did I hear if it wasn't Nirania? Maybe Rin sounded so much like your little one that you didn't even realize it. No Rin has her own sound, even though it is much like my Nir's it will always be Rin. Fine but your not seeing logic hear. He shook the thoughts out of his head.

His heart raced as he came upon the campsite and what he saw there astounded him…

Kagome struggled to get her giant yellow bag out of the well and was having a very hard time doing so. 'Where's Inuyasha when you need him?' unbeknownst to her the dearly beloved dogyoukai was PINNED to a tree YET AGAIN. Slowly pulling herself up and out of the well she sensed a sacred jewel shard nearby. She quickly forgot the bags heavy mass and pulled it up and stared to run where there was smoke rising in the sky. For some reason she knew that it was Miroku and Sango.

She stumbled into the camp and saw the grim looks on their faces. She couldn't imagine what had happened that made them looks so down like that. Sango stood and came to stand beside her best friend. She looked deep into Kagome's eyes and just thought of the right words to say what it was she had to say.

"Kagome…" Sango said but started to fade

"What is it Sango? You can tell me. By the way where's Inuyasha?" Kagome said as Sango sweat-dropped.

"Kagome…I…LOOK!" Sango said as she pointed to the sacred tree. Kagome did as she was told and looked and did an anime fall. She got back up and looked over at Miroku and all he said "Kikyou". Kagome had flames around her as he said this.

Kagome marched right over to the sacred tree and took hold of the arrow Kikyou embedded into his collar bone and put all of her sacred power into the projectile. There was a bright purple light emitted in the forest as the arrow was then taken out of Inuyasha. He fell to the forest floor with a non-pleasable thud. He began to stir and looked up at Kagome as if she was his savior. He looked up at her and also saws that she was angry beyond all belief.

"Kagome?"

"WHAT WERE YOU THINKING? HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN HANGING THEIR INYASHA? WHAT IN THE WORLD POSSESSED YOU TO MEET KIKYOU! WHY!" Kagome said surprisingly all in one breath.

"I was meeting Kikyou to tell her my feelings about you. I told her that my heart choose you and she got all mad at me and pinned me to that cursed thing."

"………"

Kagome couldn't believe her ears. Did she just hear that Inuyasha choose her over Kikyou? She was stirred from her thoughts when Inuyasha looked at her and asked her something but she really wasn't listening.

"What did you say?" she asked

"Why did you come over to the campsite all quickly?"

"Oh! That's right! Um hehe, I sense a sacred jewel shard nearby."

"What! Ok, look Sango and Miroku trail behind us well meet you guys there."

"Alright." Came a unison reply

As Inuyasha and Kagome took off Sango and Miroku looked at each other.

"Hey Miroku?" Sango asked

"Yes, what is it Sango?"

"If Inuyasha could remember that Kagome came by the campsite so quickly, then dose he remember Sesshomaru coming by?"

"I wouldn't know Sango, but I honestly think that he does."

Inuyasha and Kagome were tracking down the sacred jewel shard and they just reached their destination. There in the clearing stood two little girls examining each other. What Inuyasha didn't know was as soon as he came out into the clearing so did his older brother.

Sesshomaru had gathered up the courage to go to the little ones. Why am I scared? He thought. However, the little girl with the white hair knew of the two people coming into the perimeter. She quickly took battle stance and her claws started glowing a purplish-black. She was then interrupted by a LOUD and HIGH scream of relief. She whirled around and saw the strange human girl go running to him.

Inuyasha was so shocked at what his eyes beheld. There sat a fitting image of his older brother only she was a she. He looked and saw his brother standing there in awe. He was quickly entranced into the situation.

"What are you doing hear?" the little girl spat

"Nirania is…is that you?" he asked

"Oh yes father it is I" she said the word 'father' venomously

"How?" was all he could say

"Why!" Nirania screamed

"Why what Nirania?"

"Why didn't you come for me? I called and called for you and yet you still didn't come when I needed you! Why! Didn't you love me daddy!"

Inuyasha couldn't believe his ears. Did that little girl just say that Sesshomaru was her FATHER? No he must have misheard her until she started screaming at him. And as soon as she ended her tirade with daddy, Inuyasha then proceeded to faint. Completely forgetting that Kagome was on his back and squished her in the process.

Sesshomaru just couldn't do anything. So shocked was he that his little girl came back from the grave, met is Rin, and is now proceeding to give him a piece of her mind which was obviously filled with hatred and sorrow. Before he knew it she had ran off. Before he could take off after her he felt a little tug on his pants and looked down to see a Rin with wide eyes with a twang of sadness in them.

"Lord Sesshomaru, you never told me you had a daughter…" she trailed off and the wind began to pick up. Unexpectedly there was a purple miasma everywhere and out walked Naraku, Kagura and Kanna. Naraku had a really PO'd look on his face, where as Kagura was just happy to be out of the castle not to mention that she was near Sesshomaru. Rin let out a little screech and ran behind Sesshomaru.

"Naraku, Kanna." Sesshomaru spat there names like a cursed word however he didn't mind Kagura there. For he knew that she was not there by her own will, yet he wondered she had such happy and serene face.

"Don't sound so happy to see us lord Sesshomaru." Naraku retorted.

"What do you want hear Naraku!" Inuyasha added in their little conversation just getting up and leaving a very much in pain Kagome there on the forest floor.

"I was just wondering why I smelled our dear leader hear ," Naraku said as he turned his eyes toward Sesshomaru " There seemed to be two of him…" he trailed off. Just at that point everyone looked at Sesshomaru. Miroku and Sango came into the clearing. Before they could ask any questions they heard Nirania scream but accompanied by hers was a woman's.

Sesshomaru's face drained of all color. He sped off to where the two screams had come from. Inuyasha, Naraku, and Kagura went running after him. Kagura was the only one keeping pace with him though, for she had quickly pulled out her feather. Sesshomaru and Kagura (they were ahead) came into a clearing and saw this massive youkai. Sesshomaru almost had a heart attack. There was the youkai who had supposedly killed his family, he finally took a good look at the youkai. He too had white hair but he had malicious black eyes with a neon green pupil. He had six arms and a wicked set of teeth. In his first right arm was Nirania she was limp but had a terrified expression on her face. In the first left arm was………… his wife Arugak!

She looked at him and shot him a glare. He could see that her eyes bore pure hatred as she looked him up and down. Her eyes stayed on his left pant leg. He looked down and Oh god in heaven there stood Rin! Kagura landed gracefully off of her feather on Sesshomaru's left side. The way they stood they looked like two parents protecting there innocent child. Arugak just glared at him even more as she looked at the little threesome.

"Well, well, well we meet again!" said the youkai.

"You!" Sesshomaru said with uncontrollable anger. He was doing everything in his power to not turn into a giant white dog, for he would end up crushing Rin and Kagura.

"What's wrong pooch? Cat got your toung?" the sickening youkai asked him.

"YOU! YOU TOOK EVERY THING FROM ME" Sesshomaru said while his eyes were an unnatural shade of deadly blood read.

"Hahaha! You are such a fool Sesshomaru! You see, if I recall correctly, I had warned you I was going to be coming. However, unfortunate for you, I have grown much, much stronger than I was before. I even gave you a fifty year warning, how pathetic are you, you dog!"

Sesshomaru couldn't take it anymore. He started transforming, unbeknownst to him for a split second Rin had ran from her protection of Sesshomaru's leg and stood before the youkai bold as ever. Kagura went to grab her but for some odd reason Rin was a little too fast for a regular human. Kagura then took a good look at her and noticed that Rin was glowing? A inhuman light surrounded Rin as she stood before the youkai

"How dare you? You were the one who hurt my lord Sesshomaru! I don't know who you are, or what your reasons are but what you have done is unforgivable!" Rin screamed. Her eyes went all white, pure white, pink, and blue lights where dancing around her. Out of her hand shot a ball of energy, one that would make Kikyou's look like a speck of dust. The youkai unfortunately was able to step out of most of the blasts path of destruction. He was going to retaliate when he realized that Sesshomaru was already standing protectively over the young girl.

The rest of the group had caught up to them, just in enough time to see Rin's little escapade. Rin was so shocked at what she just had done. She looked over the damage: she took out three forests, two mountains, and it looked like at least one thousand youkais. She then proceeded to faint all of her energy spent if finding her new power. Sesshomaru caught her and handed her to Kagura.

"Watch over her for me Kagura." He asked almost in a goodbye tone.

"Don't talk like that." She answered, taking the small girl in her arms.

"This is a battle I cant win, he's too strong………" he trailed off "however it has been one wild ride knowing you Kagura." He then went to attack the youkai. As he was racing toward him the youkai started to say:

"Well it would be useful to know who your loosing your life too. I am called Lucisherkon." And with that he attacked Sesshomaru. Indeed Lucisherkon was EXTREAMLY powerful he was just about to attack Sesshomaru when wind blades came and sliced off one of his arms.

"Kagura DON'T!" Sesshomaru pleaded.

"It seems that you have feelings for these two beings." Lucisherkon said. With speed that even Sesshomaru couldn't match he quickly picked up Rin and Kagura and disappeared into nothingness. Not a trace was left over of him. Not even a scent. Sesshomaru stood there looking at where they just had disappeared too. The rest of the group came over and just looked at him.

"Sesshomaru, who was that guy?" Inuyasha asked. He quickly regretted what he had asked when he saw the look of pain cross the unemotional face.

"He is the guy that took my wife and child away from me fifty years ago. He killed them the same day you were bound to the tree. He made me watch him decapitate my wife and pour poison over my daughter. And now he has now taken Rin and Kagura from me the people who taught me what happiness and love was again. However he did forget one thing…" Sesshomaru started to trail off.

"What did he forget?" asked Inuyasha in a raspy voice.

"He forgot that you're still alive. And for that I am most grateful."
