(Must Read)! Author's Note: Hey guys! So sorry for the late update. I've been gone for a while because of school and my horses. I've also had a lot of homework to catch up on from being absent from school. Oh, and like always thanks for all the reviews on my last chapter! You guys are awesome! I will try to be consistent with my updates but I will only write when I have an idea for a chapter. I don't like sitting at a computer and staring at the screen just waiting for a randome idea to come up... Sometimes I do that and I know it's not really good but anyway, this chapter is gonna be a little slow because I just want to write where the relationship is going with Rin and Sesshoumaru. Just thought I would let you know. Oh, and I will have at least one chapter where the Inuyasha gang will be searching for the Shikon no Tama.. Thanks and here is chapter six! Again sorry for the late update!
Chapter Six: Stories Of The Past And Sesshoumaru's Resentment
Rin
It's been a while now since the fight and Sesshoumaru hasn't come back. Was he mad at me because I demanded him and his brother to stop fighting? Probably. In fact, he probably hated me even more now. He's made it very clear that he resented humans and I'm sure he didn't appriciate one ordering him around. But, I just couldn't stand there and watch the two fight over... nothing. I just couldn't believe they actually hated eachother. I mean, they where brothers. Well half brothers at least but still they had come from the same father. Maybe not the same mother but I found out when I was staying with Kagome and the rest of the group that Sesshoumaru's father married another women named Izaoyi after Sesshoumaru's mother died. Later Sesshoumaru's human mother had become pregnant with Inuyasha.
When Kagome was telling me the story I was able to picture a mother giving birth to a young half demon. I was also able to imagine the baby Inuyasha. His little baby body and him wailing when he was born. The moment Kagome told me that another man who had also loved and yearned for Izayoi had killed her after she gave birth to Inuyasha. I shuddered at the thought and remembered the story Kagome had told me...
*Flash Back*
"Rin, Inuyasha hasn't always been like he is now you must know that," Kagome stated. She looked at me like she wished me to believe that Inuyasha wasn't always rude and mean.
'I tried not to give her a look of doubt but I did because how could I know that Inuyasha wasn't always like that? I just met him a few days ago and he's been nothing but rude to me. The first thing he did when he saw me was snap at me to hurry up and make a decision about staying with complete strangers. '
"Okay how can I make you believe me? Right... I know a story and I'm going to tell you about it but you have to promise me not to tell Inuyasha I told you. It's about the day he was born. He told me but . I only know a little about his mother and how she died. He doesn't like to talk about it much," Kagome said.
'I blinked but nodded my head and promised her that I wouldn't tell Inuyasha. I was kind of reluctant to talk to him in the first place. There was no way I was going to tell him Kagome had told me a story about him and I doubted it was even that bad. '
"Where do I start? Okay I found Inuyasha trapped to a sacred tree by an arrow. He looked like he was sleeping peacfully and I was told by all the villagers not to take the arrow out of his shoulder. I thought he was dead and I didn't know what they where all going on about. But, one day I was attacked by a demon. A cenipead. She was after something that was inside my body, something I didn't know was in my body. The thing she was after was the Shikon no Tama. I was scared so I ran from the village and back to the tree Inuyasha was bound to. I don't know why I did it but I ran up to him and demanded that he wake up. When he didn't I got an idea that I should take the arrow out of him because the villagers had told me not to do it. I did and he opened his eyes. He got rid of the demon, but he was also after the sacred jewel shard that was in my body."
'I gasped shocked that the jewel was found in her body. I mean how did they get the thing out? And how did it shatter in the first place? Kagome never told me that it shattered but I had heard about it doing that. '
"That is my beginning into all of this. The story about Inuyasha's mother is kind of hard to tell. But, it all started with a war with the human villagers and Sesshoumaru's father. While the Great Dog Demon was fighting his wife Izayoi was having a baby in the same human castle that was trying to kill her husband. A man who was jealous of the dog demon. His name was Takimaru. He wandered to the birth room in which Izayoi was in labor and he talked to her. Jealous words and anger that she was giving birth to a half breed. Izayoi, she tried to warn him to get out of the village but instead he killed her."
'I gaped at her. "What happened next?" I asked.'
"Inutaishio brought her back to life with one of his two swords. She had Inuyasha but when his father died fighting Takimaru for Inuyasha's human mother, I think Sesshoumaru resented Inuyasha and other humans or half breeds ever since," Kagome finished.
*End Of Flash Back*
I was back with Ah-Un and Jaken now. I was able to picture everything Kagome had told me yesterday. I was brought out of my thoughts by hearing Jaken's loud annoying voice. I snapped out of it and looked to see that Sesshoumaru had entered the clearing. I gasped when I saw the condition he was in. He had blood all over himself and a lot of it probably wasn't even his. I ran up to him and his eyes burned red. They went from red to white, red to white. He sat down and closed his eyes for several long minutes.
While he was resting silently, I held my breath and waited. A few minutes later I couldn't stand just standing there. So, instead of doing that I walked into the forest with my new bucket I got from Inuyasha and Kagome's village and headed to a small stream I found earlier. I filled up the bucket with water and then headed back to camp.
Sesshoumaru had his eyes open now and he was watching me without blinking. I sat down beside him and ripped off part of my sleeve from my kimono. Just as I was about to dip the tore cloth into the water and place it on Sesshoumaru's arm, he snarled at me.
"What are you doing human?" He demanded and I shied away from him a little bit and then got my nerve back.
"I'm trying to help. If I don't clean your wounds they will get infected," I explained and stuck my chin in the air.
"I'm not like you humans or half breeds. My wounds heal quickly now get away from me," he warned.
I sighed this was simply a lost case. So, instead of making him angry any furthur, I just backed off and let him be. I took Ah-Un into the forest with me and took off into the air with him, feeling my tense muscles relax. I knew I couldn't just close my eyes and forget here. This forest was dangerous. But, I still let myself relax and I let Ah-Un lead the way.
He seemed to know where he was going. So I trusted him and let him just fly. This was the most peace I've had since I started traveling with Sesshoumaru and Jaken.

A/n: Okay in the flash back words that are like this: 'hi.' are in Rin's thoughts or comments. The words that are in italics are all Kagome telling the story. There will be more action soon and sorry for the long wait! I was busy with other stuff! Here is chapter six though. Finally!
