Chapter Three: The Ghost of Christmas Present
Ding, dong, ding.
Sesshoumaru listened as the bell tolled, and at the dong, a light slowly began to grow in the adjoining room.
"So the spirit came back, huh." said Sesshoumaru as he quickly walked over and opened the door.
Inside was scantly covered girl. She was wearing a tiny little green mini skirt that barley covered her bottom. But her long sleeved shirt was less revealing. It looked as if she was wearing a uniform.
She was sitting on a huge pile of Instant lunches of Ramen Noodles. Their was chicken flavored, tomato flavored, beef flavored and seafood flavored, and a number of other varieties of flavors Sesshoumaru was unable to recognize.
The room had also gone a huge transformation, instead of the normal dark drag, Christmas lights decorated walls, and huge strands of holly hung and every corner, their was a wreath on every wall, as well as one on the girl's black hair.
"Hello" she said when she saw Sesshoumaru enter the room, "why don't you come in and make yourself some Ramen Noodles, there is some hot water boiling in the fireplace."
"eh?" said Sesshoumaru somewhat surprised "why would I want some Ramen Noodles, this Sesshoumaru does not eat human food"
"That's odd Inuyasha always liked them" she said
"Especially, food that, that half breed likes." added Sesshoumaru "Now I want you out of my house"
"Hey! Aren't you even going to ask who I am" she said
"No, nor do I care!" said Sesshoumaru smirking "because you are about to be dissolved by my poison claws."
"Come on I'm doing this for you" she said, standing up. "I am Kagome, The Spirit of Christmas Present!"
"I do not care, now die!" After saying this he moved with his usual high speed, however when his claws touched her skirt, the room vanished in a flash white and he found himself in another house, it was very poorly made. The fireplace was barely burning and the food on the table was pathetically cheap. On the table sat a very small goose, a small dish of raspberry dressing, and a potato cut into thirds. This was hardly enough for the small family of three sitting around the table.
Sesshoumaru recognized Miroku Cratchit. The woman must have been wife, and the little boy his son.
Miroku filled the three glasses sitting on the table with a very deluded wine. He raised his glass and said "Let's give a toast"
"To whom are we to give toast" asked his wife.
"To sake!" said Miroku "Let us drink to sake and pretty women, Sango."
Sango grabbed something that looked like a huge boomerang from behind her chair, and whacked her husband on the head with it.
"I don't think so you lecherous monk!" she said
"I know who we can give a toast for!" said the little boy, "why not to Sesshoumaru Scrooge? If it wasn't for him we wouldn't even have this small feast!"
"That's right" said the unheard Sesshoumaru agreeing with the little boy.
"How stupid" replied Miroku "Kohaku, if Mr. Scrooge wasn't so horribly stringy I could have sake everyday and beautiful women to go along with it!"
"What's wrong with me, Miroku?" asked Sango anger radiating dangerously from her body.
"I just like a variety of women, Sango, nothing to be worried about" said Miroku
WHAM! Miroku was hit very hard in the head once again by the boomerang.
"So this is Miroku's family, huh." Said Sesshoumaru, "If I had known before hand how perverted and ungrateful he was I never would have hired him"
"But don't you see what a scantly meal he has? Doesn't this make you want to pay him more? So he can feed his family" asked Kagome. "Doesn't watching this make you realize how badly the poor need demonic powers?"
"No, it does not" said Sesshoumaru sharply, "why would I want to give money or my demonic powers to a pervert?"
Kagome sighed "Fine, be that way." She said when she realized Sesshoumaru was showing no signs of compassion. "Let's go I have one more scene to show you."
"Is that so" said Sesshoumaru.
Kagome took his hand and the room disappeared. Instead they were now in a small alley; the ground was covered in snow.
One small little girl with a little smile on her face sat huddled in this snow, a small collection of food surrounded her. This was a rather large loaf of frozen honey bread and some frozen oranges.
"I hope Sesshoumaru gets her quick" said the innocent little girl. While she looked at the entrance of the alley watching for him to come, her lips began to turn a light shade of blue. So did the very tips of fingers.
"What a fool" said Sesshoumaru; however this was without his customary coldness. "She should get out of the snow and find some place to warm go"
"But she has no where to go" said The Spirit of Christmas Present.
"Is that so" said Sesshoumaru.
Rin then began to shake uncontrollably "Sesshoumaru" she said weakly, before she fell down in the snow.
"Has she died" said Sesshoumaru with the faintest lines of worry.
"No, but she will if these shadows do not go unaltered" said Kagome, as small traces of Sesshoumaru's power slipped into her.
'Seems I found Sesshoumaru's compassionate spot' thought Kagome 'I had better report this'
"Come it's time to go."
"Woman what is that that clings to your skirt." asked Sesshoumaru, who was slightly surprised that he had not seen it before. It was a rather large two headed dragon it's claws grabbing at the end of her skirt.
"Those are the children of poverty" she said "Ignorance and Want fear them both"
"Why should I fear them?" asked Sesshoumaru.
"Why shouldn't you fear them?" answered Kagome "My time is now up, and I got what I came here for"
"What" asked Sesshoumaru.
The Spirit of Christmas Present slowly faded into a white shadow the children of poverty disappeared. The white shadow shrunk into the size of a small child. The shadow began to take shape, and the scenery around them began to change, getting colder, windier and the snow surrounding Rin changed into hard cold ice.
The whiteness somewhat subsided, and Sesshoumaru was able to see a small little girl holding a mirror.
