.::Winter Downfall::.
.:Weakness part two:.
The winter wind blew in the hut slightly, the clouds in the sky invaded the whole area above. Rin was frightened of the winter snow now but it brought too many of her memories back to her. She'd always hear this soft tune of a flute playing somewhere in the distance each time she would have a flashback of her childhood with Sesshomaru, Jaken, and Ah-Un. Now she was having memories of the time Kohaku traveled with them.
Then she woke up.
"Rin! I'm so glad!" Kagome cried as she continued fanning Rin. She stared down at the ill girl with sadden eyes. Rin turned her eyes up to where Inuyasha stood next to the doorway.
"Hey kid, what took you so long to wake up?" He asked with a soft expression on his face. Rin blinked and turned to look around, "Lord Sesshomaru brought me here didn't he?" She asked. Kagome smiled, "Yes he did."
Rin frowned, "I'm so glad, I guess I'll be on my way--"
"Hold up, You think we're gonna let you out that easily? We had a little talk with Sesshomaru, he wanted us to keep you here for awhile until he gets back." Inuyasha said taking Rin's arm before she even had a chance to leave. Rin was pushed back onto the futon, she looked at Kagome and blinked, "Is that true?" She asked.
Kagome nodded, "He'll be back, I promise. But you have to promise that you'll stay here until then." Kagome spoke.
Rin turned down and gave a nod, "Alright. But lady Kagome, I wanted to--"
Kagome shook her head and gently pushed Rin onto the bed, she sighed and stood up walking over to Inuyasha. "If Sesshomaru comes then don't stop to look for us, you just go ahead and go with him." Kagome whispered as she left the hut and the young Rin alone.
"You think Rin is alright alone?" Kagome asked Inuyasha as they sat outside far from the hut Rin was resting in. Inuyasha sighed, "You were the one who suggested us to leave." He replied sticking wood into the fire.
"Well I wanted to give her some time to herself! But I think even a second of leaving her alone is a bit too cruel.." Kagome said.
"It's not cruel, it's respect you idiot! You were being nice, right? So then I think she's alright by herself!"
Kagome folded her arms, "Thanks... but you think getting away with idiot is going to cut it?" She asked.
Inuyasha put his hands in front of his face, "Eh-"
"Sit."
Back at the hut, Rin lied staring up at the ceiling thinking like she was the first time she ended up in Kaede's hut.
She sighed and turned over on her stomach, Lord Sesshomaru... you promised you won't forget about me, right?
"Will you.. promise you'll remember me?" Rin asked the dog demon.
Sesshomaru blinked then turned to the skies, "Don't say such silly things.."
Rin giggled, I hope he won't forget about me..
She felt better now.
Rin pushed off the warm blankets Kagome handed her and struggled to get up, but, she couldn't even sit up or move. Her heart was racing, she tried again. Nothing. Rin tried to lift her arm up and move her fingers but it felt like tons of bricks have been holding her down.
Her breathing was turning into pants once more and she could not breathe. What was happening to her?
Lord Sess...shomaru... Rin's eyes were heavy and her breathing had...
