A Future Fairytale

Chapter 7

Wake Me Up

Kikyou stayed asleep for over one full week, not waking up. Sesshomaru hade made the decision to go and see his little brother and tell him the knews of his beloved mate. The healers of the palace figured she might not last long without her mate near to protect her and love her.

Sesshomaru bid goodbye to Rin and Jaken, told them to look after Kikyou and not let anything happen to her, and sped off to where Inuyasha's scent was leading him.

Eventually, he found them at Miss Alina Konaka's village. Sesshomaru wondered where she was, having disappeared from the village a while back. But he walked to the hut in which he smelt Inuyasha and his pack of friends.

One thing surprised him when he entered. A girl that looked exactly, or remotely similar to Kikyou sat in the hut, playing with a kitsune, sitting very close to Inuyasha, and he didn't look like he took so much notice at all... or maybe he didn't care...

"Hello, little brother," Sesshomaru said coldly upon entering the hut. Everyone froze and Inuyasha got into protective mode, standing up in front of everyone.

"What the hell are you doing here, Sesshomaru?" Inuyasha asked. "Come to take something else as well?"

"No, no, not at all," Sesshomaru smirked. "I have some news."

Inuyasha raised an eyebrow. "About what?"

"Do you not remember...Kikyou?" Inuyasha's eyes widened. "Aha, so you do remember her, I thought as much. Anyway, a terrible thing happened to her a few weeks ago...and it's landed her in a coma." He paused slightly. "There's little chance of her waking up."

Inuyasha paled. "And the child?"

"It can't live long in their mother's womb when the mother itself doesn't want to wake up," Sesshomaru replied. "I suggest you follow me or you might not see her ever again."

Inuyasha nodded and followed Sesshomaru, ignoring everyone, including Kagome's, protests. He just had to save Kikyou...
