Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha but if anyone touches this idea, I WILL HAVE THEIR GUTS FOR BREAKFAST!
Kagome, Miroku, and Sango all looked at the injured demon that had only been moved away from the river's bank. That's as far as they could get him without his injuries getting worse and them dying from exhaustion. Shippo was trying to keep Rin distracted from all the blood her lord was spilling as he was being moved. Jaken tried to help but was repulsed by these humans touching him. Not a word of it did he breathe of his hatred to those who were trying to save Lord Sesshoumaru's fading life.
It had been hours but he had been moved to flat ground that would not spill out from underneath his battered body. The entire group was covered in his blood from the move but he was away from the river and hidden in the wilds of Japan. He couldn't have been brought to a village because the villagers would attack him while there was no one to protect him in his injured form. Rin stayed by his side now as Kagome and Sango both used their knowledge of healing to treat the wounds and try to keep his fever down.
"This is no doubt the work of poachers," Sango sighed as she dabbed his forehead with a cool cloth, "they often poison their targets so that when they attack, it is easier to kill them."
"Poachers?" Rin looked at Sango funny.
"People that hunt demons for the value of their fur," Sango answered in disgust.
"That's terrible!" Kagome looked at Sesshoumaru, "he may be Sesshoumaru, but not even he deserves to have his skin cut off."
"While he is still alive," Sango commented. Inuyasha was also disgusted but was starting to see his brother in a new light that he wasn't sure he liked. Maybe that bastard isn't as bad as I thought. It seems that humans really gave him a reason to hate them he thought but did not leave his tree. Miroku looked up at Inuyasha but said nothing before he walked to see if he could distract Rin somehow from the sorrow that was before her. He didn't really expect the feared demon lord to live, Tensaiga or no Tensaiga. No one really expected him to live through the night.
To everyone's, except Rin, surprise, he pulled through the night but he hadn't woken up yet. Rin didn't leave his side for a moment and shocked everyone when she cried out, "Lord Sesshoumaru!" joyously. The entire inugroup looked to see the dog demon open his eyes and looked around. Jaken ran over and was silent as his lord slowly got his bearings down in his mist filled mind. Kagome walked over to him.
"Sesshoumaru, you are in a field, Rin came and got us to treat you," she spoke slowly knowing that if she spoke too fast, the words would slip by him and her message lost to him. He tried to speak but only a harsh sound came out. Inuyasha made a noise that sounded suspiciously like laughter before Kagome sat him into the clay level of the dirt. Sesshoumaru looked with weak eyes on Inuyasha in his little hole.
Shippo snorted, "Serves you right Inuyasha." Rin covered her mouth and giggled at Inuyasha. The dog lord looked on at all of this and mentally sighed. This will be one long recovery.
Sorry this took so long! I lost my inspiration but as you can see, I'm getting it back!
