You watch Rin run down the stairs and stand up feeling emptiness in your stomach. Ohh yea, you think to your self, just when I really need to feel the pain. You curse yourself for promising Rin that you would play now but you just brush it off, how long would Rin want to play?
You walk down the stairs and through the long hallways till you reach the courtyard that opened up into a brilliant sunny afternoon. You hear a shriek of laughter and turn to see Rin playing with a butterfly. She jumped up to catch it but fails dismally. She doesn't cry or pout that she didn't catch it she just tried again and again enjoying the game of tag.
You smile to your self and direct your attention to your surroundings. The sky was beautiful and cloudless; it was a deep blue, so deep that you could almost fall through it into the sky. You sigh to your self and look around some more, Rins still playing; you see Jaken pouting not far off obviously not wanting to be out here. He must be out on Sesshomaru's orders to watch Rin, Where is Sesshomaru anyway.
You feel a light tug on your kimono and you are pulled back to reality quickly remembering suddenly why it was you where even out here.
"Lady Narooma Play with me!" Rin says to you jumping on her tiptoes to get your attention. The way she demanded your attention wasn't as though she was a brat it was more like a child that wants love.
"Ok, Rin what should we play?" You ask her crouching down to her height for the second time today.
"Ummm... lets play... TAG, your it" She pocked you on the shoulder lightly and sped off running in the opposite direction. You stand up from your crouching position and instead of running you jog to play with her, she's still allot shorter than you and your legs are longer than she is tall.
You forget all about your starvation, and you play with Rin. The minutes turn into hours as you and Rin play multiple games including hide and seek ghost in the graveyard and tag. If you had ever been a child you know it must have been fun. Having no worries about anything but what to play. You play with Rin all day only noticing it when the light of day faded from the horizon leaving you in the gaze of the moon.
You and Rin lay down in the grasses, unknown to you someone was watching you from the shelter of the castle. You stretched out and Rin cuddled close to you hugging your arm sweetly. You brushed the hair out of Rins face and looked to the sky observing the beautiful night sky above the two of you.
The light of the moon was unnaturally bright as it glowed down upon the two. Rin yawned and poked you on the shoulder grabbing for your attention.
"Lady Narooma," She says poking you a second time and you turn your head to face her. "Can I ask you something?"
"Yes, Rin what is it?" You say in reply confused at what she could want of you.
"Could, I maybe... just," She paused for a moment and looked a bit embarrassed, which surprised you greatly, you never thought you would see it, "maybe... could I... call-you-mommy"
You felt a bit taken aback by her question but you hide it keeping the expression from your face so that you might not embarrass her further. You nod silently and hug her tightly bringing your heads together.
Rin and you fall asleep out side that night after your little moment with her, but when you wake up you find yourself in your bed. You yawn and sit up in your bed, you feel a strong stab of hunger hit you in your gut and you grab your stomach tightly. You think back to yesterday and think of how you could have ever forgotten how hungry you were.
"Hungry!" You sorry out to your self your face contorted in hunger.
The door creaks open slowly and you look up to see who it was, but the smell of food makes you forget about the person. You look to a tray that the person is holding and you stare at it hungrily. You almost drooled all over your self till you heard the person speak.
"Close you mouth pathetic mortal!" Sesshomaru spits at you rudely and you look up to him in surprise, this time it was real, this is the first time he has set foot in your room!
He comes over to your bed and sets the food down, what the, is he trying to poison something or me. He looks at the expression painted to your face and smirks.
"Just eat human!" he said to you speaking again acting as though he was superior to you or something. Ignoring his venom you grab the food and stuff it into your mouth hungrily not exactly caring what Sesshomaru thought of you finished the tray in a mere minute.
Sesshomaru just cocks an eyebrow at your actions and took a seat in the chair next to your bed. You nearly drown your self-drinking the water Sesshomaru had bring to you. Gaping for breath you look over to see Sesshomaru staring at you.
"What are you staring at my lord," You say trying to keep the voice of annoyance inside you so that you might be respectful, you had decided that since he could have just killed you the first day that you should be thankful for him allowing you to stay.
He shook his head and looked away from you and looked out the window to the sunny sky. You cock your head to the side in wonder and sit up crossing your legs. "... My Lord?"
He looks over at you, he looks kind of angry and it scares so you scoot away a bit. He softens a bit and crosses him arms.
"I heard you and Rin talking, mortal." He said simply looking away again.
Ohh that's why he's acting so different, he must be slightly angry that you might be staying for allot longer than he had expected at first. Now that you have that kind of relationship with Rin he could never get rid of you. Even though the thought made you relived that he might accept you, you knew deep inside it could never turn out that perfect with Sesshomaru in the picture.
You smile "ohh that!" you say a little more happier than you meant it to, he looked over to you in annoyance but then it faded away.
"Don't expect anything from me human." He said venomously "I think nothing different about you, you're still a pathetic mortal and the fact that Rin likes you as a mother will change nothing!"
You make sure to see that after Sesshomaru left you roll your eyes. You should have known he would have reacted this way.
"Mommy!" You hear Rin call as you walk down the stairs after you had dressed. She hugged you legs and led you down the hall to the dinning hall to have a second breakfast, which you accepted happily seeing you were still hungry. As you ate you saw Jaken smile at you from the kitchens, you raise both your eyebrows and understand. Now you have to watch over Rin and not him, you don't mind you kind of like it allot better than doing nothing.
You finish eating and go out side to play with Rin again for a while.
L8er
You have been With Sesshomaru for a month and you haven't even spoken to him once since you talked to him about Rin. It didn't matter to you though; the only thing you really cared about was Rin. With out Rin you don't know exactly where you would be. (Ok Rin it a big part in the beginning of this story ok, don't worry this is a Sesshomaru story and It will be like that Sesshy just has to become more used to you)
You are sleeping in your bed when you are awoken by a sudden shift on the bed. You open your eyes to see Rin jumping on the bed trying to wake you up. You smile and pull her down to sit on the bed with you. Shes still giggling from the fun she had jumping on your bed.
"What is it Rin?" you ask her smiling happily over at her.
"Lord Sesshomaru say that I have to wake you up," She said smiling endlessly. "Because were leaving again!"
You smile at her again and nod; she jumps off your bed and goes to her own room to get ready. The dresser in corner of your room is filled with your own clothes now, and you can easily pick some clothes out for the journey. You get up and go over to it and pull out five of your favorite day clothes. One is navy blue; another is dark forest green the others are dark red, bright pink, and a light sky blue one. All of them have a slit going down the right leg and come with baggy pants to go under it. You like these kimonos because they are both beautiful and easy to move around in. A bag sits at the foot of your bed and you decide to use it for your clothes. You fold the kimonos nicely and set them in the bag.
The bag you set on your bed and you open your dresser again for something to where today. You settle for a pink kimono that ends at your knees and you put up your hair in a messy bun.
The door swings open as you head down the stairs to grad a bit of breakfast. You hum a melody that you somehow remember from somewhere; you brush off the realization and continue to hum the tune till you run across Sesshomaru who comes walking down an opposite hall that opens up into yours. You bow your head in recognition and continue waling till you feel a clawed hand grasp your should bringing you to a stop. Your eyes still trail in front of you; you know its Sesshomaru so you have no need to turn to face him.
"What is it my lord?" You ask respectfully.
He pulls your shoulder so that you turn to face him.
"What was that tune were just humming?" He said with out being rude or sarcastic, his face was smooth and expressionless but you could see a glimmer of high importance as he asked you the question.
"Does it have importance to you my Lord?" You ask questioningly and you see him nod slightly for you to continue. "My Lord I'm sorry to say that that I do not remember, I don't actually know anything from my past before I came to your castle..."
His expression stays smooth but you know that he is very confused with you.
"You have no memories what so ever?" He asked you still very serious, you wonder why he hasn't called you a Pathetic human or a stupid mortal yet. You nod silently to answer his question and you look down to your feet.
The feeling of having no knowledge of your past is slowly getting to you. It bites you hard whenever Rin asks you how it was when you where her age. You feel your eyes become very warm and tears form around the rimes of your eyes. You feel ashamed for crying but you can't stop, you know that in Sesshomarus eyes this is weakness.
You bite your lip in attempt to stop crying and in begin to work. You hear Sesshomaru take his leave and make his way down the hallway. You feel relieved that he left you to cry. You let all of your emotions out at that one moment. You cry hard as though you could never stop.
You, Rin, Sesshomaru, and Jaken leave the castle after you've had breakfast. They bring a two-headed dragon whose names are Ah and Un. Rin told you their names just before she fell asleep on him laying face first on her belly. You giggle to yourself as you watch Rin dose off. Jaken is in front of AhUn and you talking to Sesshomaru who only seems to be slightly paying attention to him. Sesshomaru seems to be concentrating on something else as the group continues to walk for another hour.
Sesshomaru leads everyone through the forest and every few minutes you catch Sesshomaru look back at you. It makes you wonder if it had something to do with that tune you hummed earlier. Wondering you pucker your lips with a practiced knowledge and whistled the tune to your self hoping to see whether or not that is what is bothering him so.
It seemed to work...
Suddenly Sesshomaru turned around and with his demonic speed he appeared in front of you and dug his claws into your shoulders causing you to cry out in shock and in pain. This woke up Rin, she sat up and rubbed the sleep from her eyes and looked over to the two of you and her eyes widened in shock but remain silent.
Sesshomaru noticed suddenly what he was doing and let go of you. You fell in a heap at his feet holding your shoulders, they burned suddenly and you cried out in pain again. Sesshomaru turned around; you could sense he was angry, very angry at something.
"We're going to make camp here!" He said shortly and stormed off into the forest.
You held your shoulders, tears threatening to fall. You turned your head to observe the damage. A green substance mixed with your blood and your skin was turning purple. Rin jumped down form the dragon and knelt beside you grabbing your upper arm.
"What happened Mother?" Rin asked you as she held your arm in her hands; Rin also seemed to be on the verge of tears but wiped them away with her sleeve. "Why did Lord Sesshomaru grab you?"
You let the tears fall that were forming around your eyes. Why did he attack you? Also did he poison you? The tears started to flow faster and you wipe them away. Rin lets go of your arm and embraces you tightly, and you let your head fall onto her shoulder and your crying ceases for the moment. Jaken Just stands off in the distance and whispers something about going to get firewood and rushes off. Rin holds you for the moment and she starts to cry hugging you tighter.
Sesshomaru's POV
You walk quickly through the forest every few minutes you would hit a tree in anger and cause it to come toppling over to the ground. 'What had happened? Suddenly you had the urge to hurt her, or maybe..'
You sit down against a tree and sniffed the air just to make sure you hadn't gone to far that you couldn't smell them anymore. It seems that you had walked at least two miles and had never stopped once, but course you could smell much farther than that. You look up into the canopy of the trees thinking hard on what exactly had happened.
You had heard the tune you heard her hum earlier but this time she whistled. Then suddenly you became overcome by your own urge to, you couldn't figure out what that feeling was. Picking at it slowly you suddenly figure it out! It scares you though but its true. You wanted to enter her to... yea you know what I mean ewe huh.
'Mate Her!' You thought to your self thirdly disgusted by the mere thought of it. Shes a digesting mortal how could you, the powerful Lord Sesshomaru, have any urge like that for any human!
You sit there for a moment feeling like you could throw up, but then you think back to Narooma again and realize that you had poisoned her.
Your POV
After you and Rin stopped crying Jaken comes back with firewood and starts up a fire just as the sun begins to set. You begin to feel sick and your arms are throbbing painfully. You suppose it was poison because of how weak you were becoming not to mention your purple pulsating skin. The three of you including AhUn sit around the fire for a few minutes in silence.
"Sesshomaru-sama!" Yells Rin but she doesn't get up as usual to greet him, she looked kind of scared. "Sesshomaru-sama save Narooma!"
He looked over at you as Rin pleads to him sadly. His eyes wander to your upper arms as he took in the damage.
"Please Lord Sesshomaru help Mommy" Sesshomaru couldn't ignore her if he wanted to; he walked over to you and knelt down looking at your arm.
His hand reached for his sword and drew it. You haven't seen Sesshomaru draw one of his swords the whole time you've been with him but right now you didn't want to see it. He raised his sword like he was going to strike you and you scream. You find you're self-clinging to his shirt frightened to death.
"Stay still oona I'm going to cut it off!" Sesshomaru said to you trying to pry you off him with out you ripping his clothes in the process.
"Like hey you're going to slice my arm off!" you yell to him only tightening your hold on his shirt.
"Get off me human!" He yells at you angrily and tries to shove you but doesn't succeed, you only hold on tighter. The whole scene was quite funny and entertaining if you cut out the oozing stuff coming out of your arm.
"I'll let go if you promise you won't chop off my arm!" You say to him angrily
"Fine" he said retreating his attempt to push you off of him. You let go and felt one of your arms painfully. A strangely colored puss oozed from your cuts and smelled horribly like you were rotten. You coughed loudly and looked up to Sesshomaru.
"You will need to go to a village priestess then." Sesshomaru said smugly
"Lord Sesshomaru please bring mommy now!" Rin cried in a frightened tone hugging your leg sadly. You put your hand on her head then looked to Sesshomaru almost begging. He rolled his eyes and started to walk through the forest. You smile to yourself and say goodbye to Rin. Sesshomaru had only gone a few yards when you caught up with him, and you thanked him as you walked besides him through the forest.
