WARNING- LEMON SCENE
Forbidden
Chapter Eight
He slashed out at the raven-haired woman. He scowled as she once again parried him with her bow. He let out a cry of battle and charged forward once more, but once again, he was thrown down. He growled and stood up, his body heaving in fatigue. Centuries...this battle had lasted for centuries. He looked around the pure white space they were in. His spikes jerked as he sensed the woman notching an arrow. He turned quickly and sliced the purified arrow into thin strands with the massive knife-like spikes coming out of his wrists.
"Wretch!" He screamed as he launched forward once more. He would not die in this place...he brought up his knee, that had the similar spike shooting up from it, and brought it down upon the priestess. He flew back, her stomach sliced open and blood pouring out of her wound. She glared at him with passionate onyx eyes. She notched another arrow and let it fire, catching the youkai off guard at her sudden quickness in movement. He screamed in pain as the arrow lodged itself within his forearm.
"You...bitch..." He uttered. The miko smirked and fired a wave of arrows. He scowled as he dodged them, the pure energy from the arrow flowing through his system. No...he would not die here. He ripped it out of his arm and looked to what he supposed was the sky.
He laughed.
He laughed like a crazy man.
The miko stared at him as he continued to laugh. She even fired another arrow at him, but was surprised when it had no effect on him.
He continued to laugh.
"She'll get me out...she won't even know that she does!" He screamed to the sky, as if mocking it. The priestess scowled. This wasn't good...
"Free me! Free me into the Lands, free me into life!" He continued to scream to the sky. The priestess notched an arrow, aiming for his head. She scowled. She wasn't going to lose...
"Free me Rin!"
"Die Khan!"
She fired her arrow.
Rin moaned as she slowly opened her eyes. She saw darkness and felt a faint throbbing in her head. She sat up slowly and looked around. She realized that she was still within her room. Rin stood up, holding onto the rim of the bed for support. Her legs wobbled as if she were drunk. She squinted her eyes as a faint light showed at the other side of the room, then disappeared. She shook her head lightly and looked again. No...there was no light.
She sighed and turned, only to jump as a sqwuaky voice spoke behind her.
"Stupid girl! What are you thinking? Do you realize how near to death you were, you foolish child! Now get back in bed before Sesshomaru-sama wakes up and finds out what happened!" He screeched. Rin covered her ears as she stared at Jaken. Does that mean that Sesshomaru had nothing to do with saving her life? She sighed. She should have known.
She looked at Jaken as he set a tray of food next to her metal bed. She waited. Jaken looked at her and began to squawk.
"Stupid girl! I am merely helping you so that Sesshomaru-sama doesn't have to deal with another pest! This is not out of kindess!" Jaken screeched. Rin smiled and giggled a little, then pat Jaken's head twice before beginning to eat. It was funny though...
...all of her pain had disappeared suddenly.
She shrugged and ignored Jaken's splutters of outrage at her act of kindness. After she watched him walk out of the room in a huff, she began to wonder what that whole pain, darkness and blood thing was all about a while ago. She sighed. Why was she wondering about something she had no clue over? She shrugged and began to wonder of other things.
I wonder...why are there so many danger's within this castle? I mean, I understand that it's a youkai's castle, but then why does it need so many defenses? Can't the demons just kill the intruders? What is it about this castle that unsettles me...? And that sword...Souunga...why was Sesshomaru so protective of it? Aren't the swords' powers laying dormant? If not, then that might be what's unsettling me...but...I'd like to know more about that Tenseiga. But the only way to do that is to sneak out...but the doors locked, so I can't...
Rin scowled. How she despised that. She never liked to stay indoors for long, but if she was stuck, she would wander around. Now, she could do neither.
She sighed and lay back down on the bed. A faint image formed in her head, but she could not make it out. There were three, two tall and one a tad bit smaller. She shook her head clear and turned on her side. She felt tears sting her eyes once more as the thought of never knowing her family once again barracaded its way into her mind. She snuggled into the pillow and cover and took a deep breath. She smelled forest air and ocean upon them.
She wondered if that was what Sesshomaru smelled like...
A little girl stood outside a burning hut. She held a newborn child within her arms, protected by the fluffy blanket around it. It was crying loudly as the girl's eyes shed tears. She took about three large steps backwards as a loose burning board fell near them. She shook her head, hoping the image would exit her mind.
A young man, around the age of seventeen stumbled up to them, followed by a woman and her husband. They all stared as their home burned. The woman turned and held the crying child and baby. She held them close to her heart before releasing them.
"M-mommy, what's going on...?" The little girl asked. The woman didn't respond as a flurry of arrows flew through the sky, hitting everything in their paths. The little girl cried out as one flew right past her cheek, leaving a cut behind. The woman quickly stood and ran to her husband. The young man stood in front of the two girls, picked them up, and ran through the fields.
"Mommy! Daddy! MOMMY, DADDY! NO!" The little girl screamed as she watched them get shot down and some men on horses came up and decapitated them. She hugged the baby girl tighter as they were carried away by the young man.
He brought them to a ranch and took them near a beige and white pony. The young colt nayed in surprise as he quickly out them upon it's back. He looked to the crying girl as she held the baby. He took out an old worn rag and gave it to her.
"Keep this safe. Always. Understand?" He said. The girl nodded and opened the rag, revealing a glowing pink jewel. She looked to the young man. He smiled softly.
"Protect your sister, Kagome...Rin's life depends on you now. Now go, and whatever you do, don't look back. Alright?" He asked. Kagome nodded again as she held Rin tighter, the young baby crying louder. He nodded and took the young colt, pushing it out of the ranch, and slapping its hind, causing it to run away. Kagome looked back one last time in horror as her older brother was killed as well. She cried and quickly looked forward, holding on to the pony and baby.
"I'll protect you Rin...now and always..." She smiled down to the little girl and looked at the jewel. She remembered the legend behind it. But now was not the time to think of her lessons. Kagome set a determined look, Rin's crying becoming softer as if knowing she was now safe.
"I'll protect you sister...even if it costs me my life..."
Kagome shot up in a cold sweat. She looked around the dark room and turned on a firelight. She looked around and sighed in relief. She hadn't had that dream in years. And to think that she had hoped to forget their past. She walked to the door and opened it. She needed some air.
The jewel pulsed...
Kagome stopped and looked at the Shikon Jewel around her neck. Her brows drew in from confusion. It pulsed two more times before stopping. Kagome sighed and walked on. She felt something tugging at her, pulling her towards something. Before she knew it, she stood on a hilltop, looking down upon the enchanting forest that lay near the castle. She drew in a breath.
She could escape...
She scowled. She couldn't leave Rin. But...her freedom was right in those trees...
She shook her head. She couldn't leave Rin! Why was she thinking these things? She moaned as her head began to pound.
Freedom...
She squeezed her eyes shut in pain, hoping it would go away. She couldn't leave Rin...never...she couldn't! ...Could she...?
Run to your freedom...
Kagome's eyes slowly opened, dull. There was no life within her brown orbs, as if she were possessed. Then, she blinked and they came to life again. She stood up and looked to the forest. She turned back to the castle. A tear ran down her face.
"Rin...forgive me..."
...freedom...
She ran into the forest.
He pounded into her, in and out repeatedly. Her muscles tightened with each thrust, her ecstacy rising in each pant. She moaned in pure bliss as he growled upon her, his eyes shut in pleasure, reaching his peak yet holding back, waiting for her to come with him. Their sweating body's ground together, his thrusts becoming more and more desperate as he waited.
She screamed as the pit of her stomach lit on fire and she reached her release. He pounded into her one last hard time, his hot seed spilling into her body. Her muscles throbbed against his member as he slowly pushed in a few more times, emptying himself completely into her. Her orgasm swirled around him as she moaned as he spilled into her. Her stomach was now like a bonfire as she panted from pleasure.
He growled and claimed her lips, rushing his tongue into her mouth, which she happily allowed. Her tongue bravely slid along his, a war between them. He thrust his tongue in and out of her mouth, allowing her pleasure once again. He pulled away, breathing hard. He pulled out of her reluctantly and lay on his side, panting in exhaustion. She turned toward him, smiling. She cuddled to his side, rubbing her face in his silvery hair and imagining his heated golden orbs once more in her mind.
He wrapped his arms around her petite waist and hugged her closer to his chest. He growled as he put his nose in her hair and breathed in deeply. He opened his eyes and smiled as he heard her breathing slow and her heartbeat become steady.
"Rin..."
Sesshomaru growled as he stood in front of her door. His eyes were blood red, darker than any red he had before. His canines were bared and his body was shaking in pure fury. That...bitch...
"How dare she..." He muttered. He could here her moaning lightly in her metal room, and smell the arousal that exit the room. He stepped away quickly as if burned. He heard her moan his name...she was dreaming of him...
"How dare she..." He said again. His hair began to frizz from his anger as he was ready to transform and rip her to shreds. He growled furiously and opened the door with a slam, shutting it behind him and locking it. He watched through nearly black eyes as she shot up from her sleep and stared at him with frightened eyes.
He made his way toward her.
If Rin wished to have him, then have him she shall...
I am sooooo sorry! I wanted to update sooner, but I had tons of homework from all of my classes and we had to clean the house because we want to sell it. (sigh) Please forgive me...at least you know what's going to happen in the next chapter now, huh? (smiles nervously)
Q: What is going to happen to Rin? Is she being haunted by Khan's spirit?
A: Well...not only Rin.
Q: Why is the voice attacking Rin and not Kagome? Is it maybe because she has weaker powers over the jewel or is there like something special about her that attracts the sword, the jewel and the voice?
A: The voice is not only attacking Rin, but Kagome as well. Rin has no powers over the jewel, at least not unless Kagome dies and she passes it on to Rin. There might be something special...and there might not...(smiles)
Q: Who is Khan?
A: Khan is the demon that battled with Midoriko before the Shikon no Tama was created. He and her are now stuck within the jewel itself in a battle to the death. When one dies, the jewel will be destroyed. Khan is also...well...can't say that, it's waste the surprise...(grins)
