Chapter 4: Depressing Reunion
Sesshomaru POV
I couldn't believe my eyes for the before I saw the red hair reveal after the hood fallen from his head. The tribal tattoos that cover his left forearm and the wolf tattoo covering part of his neck and shoulder. Kagura took Ayumi and Ryo inside the hut while grabbing Akame from the ground. So many questions were running inside my mind while carrying him. He seems to gain a bit of weight but still way too light for his age. They're still making them starve every now those bastards. Just the thought of them makes my blood boil insanely but wasn't that. It was the scent I wanted to forget for the rest of my life. The scent of Lord Haru, the man who took my grandfather, and murder many of our kind.
Now his scent is all over Akame body which made me growl violently. If that bastard did anything to Akame I will fucking murder him. I carry his body into my grandfather old hut which there were many notes of yokai medicine notes he left behind. Hearing Akame tossing around with tears rolled down his cheeks.
"STOP IT! PLEASE STOP!...SILVERLIGHT...HELP ME!" He shouted
Rushing toward his aid I began shaking him gently by the shoulders. But it only made it worse when he uses his levitation powers to push me against the wall. I hiss harshly but knowing it's not his fault of the nightmare.
"Angel, it's ok...Silverlight Nii-san is here" I whisper
Akame eyes shot open with tears still rolling down his cheeks. Giving him a soft smile before spreading my arms out for him. How long has it been since I last hold him, protecting him from the guards, his master, and...Haru. I know Akame need my comfort at this moment. Been having to be separated for more than two hundred years we're finally reunited. The red-haired shook his head in denial where his hands covering his mouth in shock. He didn't want to believe it at first but then he began whispering.
"Silverlight...Nii-san" he whispers
"I'm here Angel" I replied
"Silverlight Nii-san!"
Akame jumped into my arms being burst out crying against my chest. I didn't realize that I was crying as well. I was too busy being happy to see my adopted little brother and my closest best friend once more. No matter how time I protected him from the guards he was always there even he was timid back then. So innocent, kind, and caring, he may look fragile and weak on the outside. But he very strong on the inside no matter how many time he was beaten by his master. Akame change so much in such a long time during our separation.
His red hair is now touching half of neck apparently, he must cut his hair once more. He seems to get stronger with his levitation powers. Those his tribal tattoos from the North Eastern tribes and apparently to be the last one of his kind. Also, the wolf shape birthmark still cover half of neck and shoulder. Those something else caught my eyes...bite marks and scratches all over his shoulders and chest. My blood began boiling but soon replace my anger by wary.
"Akame...Where did you get those bite marks...and scratches?" I asked
Akame began sobbing quietly before answering "I was raped..." he whispers
Slamming my fist harshly down to the ground with no remorse. Blood began sliding through my palm but I could careless. I wanted to know who done this to my younger brother! Once I get my claws on that bastard! He'll regret ever hurting Akame, I didn't realize that I bit my bottom lip harshly that blood began sliding down.
"...By who?" I asked
"By...By...Haru-sama...Because...I refuse to be...his wife" he stutters
"Nani?! That bastard!"
Akame back hugged him tightly while I began trembling in frustration. My breathing was reaching to the limit never in my life have I been this angry. How can I been so blind and selfish for trying to move on with life when I should've run back to save Sanyo and Akame. The tears kept streaming down Angel cheeks for the longest time in his life. Even in the prison, he would only cry just an hour or less, but this traumatizing event made him broken both outside and inside. I didn't remember how long he cries because the tears were endless until Akame fallen asleep.
Kagura POV
When the night has fallen Sesshomaru left the hut as Akame has fallen asleep after crying for nearly two hours. I can't believe that monster hurt that innocent wolf youkai, it's unforgivable. That monster raped Akame because he refuses to be his bride. I can understand about refusing to marry that man who ruins your life but raping them is another thing. I felt Sesshomaru anger and it wasn't pleasant for sure. All my life I know Sesshomaru , I've never seen him this angry. Luckily the children are asleep at this moment.
He began to breathe deeply before punching his hands against a large boulder. The scent of blood made him wary about my husband. Rushing toward his aid I grabbed his arms preventing to harm his hands any longer.
"Sesshomaru! Stop It!" " I blurted
"Let me go...please...let me go" he stutters
He kept trying to fight against me but Sesshomaru knew better than to do that. Turning him around I notice tears that stream down his cheeks. Never in my life have I saw my beloved husband broke down this badly. This breaks my heart more anything else in the world. How much longer does he need to suffer? He already witnesses his own grandfather death! Blaming himself to believe that he abandoned his friends in the Southern Lands! And now this Akame being rape by Haru-sama who ruin the yokai gypsies life. Sesshomaru soon finally burst out crying harshly against my chest. Patting his head gently never thought this day would come soon.
"It's ok...Let it all out" I whisper to him
"...It's my fault!...I should've gone back to rescue them!..." he shouted
" It isn't your fault Sesshomaru, They wanted to live a normal life...You suffer so much after your grandfather death"
"No...I should've rescue...then none of them would've happened"
Sesshomaru continues crying against my chest for a long time. Never noticing how much pain did my husband suffer all through years. Wasn't sure how he cry but soon he stood up before grabbing a cloak.
"I'll be back tomorrow morning," he said
I didn't need to ask where he was going since I knew he visiting his grandfather grave. Tonight is the night where Sesshomaru witness his own grandfather death.
