A tear fell from the demoness's glassy eyes. She wiped away her tears. She was Izumi. Mate to Inutaisho...well in name...But that was not why she was shedding tears. It was for her son. Her poor emotionless son. She blamed herself.
"Sister why do you shed tears?" Inutaisho asked in his deep voice. The demoness turned her sad eyes to her elder brother.
"Do you think I told him to early." She did not have to explain he immediately knew what she was talking about.
"No, in fact I wish I had, had the will and the power to tell him what I must..." The demon's voice trailed.
"No brother...I still believe it is to early to tell him that. I have raised a son who hates anything different from himself..." More tears fell from her eyes. She let a small sob escape her lips.
Inutaisho wiped the tears from her cheeks.
"We have raised him Izumi. Together we hold the blame for what he has become. And we have pushed the responsibility to my youngest." Inutaisho's sadness was reflected in his voice and eyes. She could see how much Inutaisho truly missed his son. How much he feared for him. She knew it was only she, Izayoi, and him who had ever seen the Great Inutaisho when he was unguarded.
"Listen," She said her voice stern. "It is not your fault for you did not tell him. You were and always have been a good father to Sesshomaru. I was the one who left with him at a young age. I was the one who was in denial because of he. I was the one who made my son so emotionless and made him become a man at a very young age. I ruined him..." The woman covered her face with her ghost coloured hands. "I'm sorry brother. I'm sorry I hurt you and Sesshomaru...I was selfish...I was blind...I even tried to come between you and your love because of my selfish desires. I was so blind."
"Izumi! That is enough! You know anyone in your situation would have done worse! Do NOT blame yourself for the gods cruelties! You are the strongest demoness I have ever known and he would be proud of you as well." Inutaisho put his large hand on the woman's shoulder. She simply cried harder. Inutaisho was at a loss.
The Lord of the West felt a hand on his shoulder. He looked up to see the love of his existence. Staring at him solemnly. He could see the look in her eyes 'Go I will deal with this'they said. If anyone could heal Izumi's pain it was Izayoi. The woman had a healing property that knew no bounds and a kindness that was deeper then the deepest oceans.
Inutaisho rose leaving Izumi to Izayoi.
"I'm sorry Izayoi. I'm so sorry" The woman sobbed. The human put a hand on her shoulder.
"All has already been forgiven." Izayoi stated calmly. Putting the other in her warm embrace. 'All is up to Inuyasha now it is his fate to fix what has been broken.'

Sango walked leaned against her masters walls. Her heart ached tremendously. Ten months, ten accursed months since her master had locked himself away. The reason for which she had no idea. She just remembered one day waking up to him throwing up. When she asked to send him to a healer the boys eyes had widened greatly so.
He growled and through a vase to the wall next to Sango. She had never seen him violent before. NEVER had she even seen him angered in all the time she had worked with her master. He was always calm, and gentle, and although sometimes he was annoyed by some silly antics he always masked it well.
And for the first time in years Sango felt scared. So scared she did not even hear the cries of the fox demon next to her.
"Leave." The boy mumbled. She was shocked staying in position. "LEAVE ME BE! I WISH TO BE ALONE!" He screamed. Sango caught his glare. His eyes were cold, she felt as though she was being drowned in a pool of nothingness. The panther demon shivered uncomfortably. This was not the master she knew.
Sango did not wish to know how he would react if she stayed he was obviously not in a state were he would reason. Sango grabbed Kohaku under one arm and Shippo in the other running out of her chambers.
Sango felt tears well in her eyes. Ever since that time she never saw him again. He refused to let anyone enter his chamber's. With the exception of Shippo who had thrown a fit when he could not see Inuyasha. Refusing to eat for four days there had been no other choice but to let him see the other. But apart from that no one had been permitted to enter. And Shippo wasn't talking. When they asked about Inuyasha his face would always become sad but still he would say nothing, saying he was respecting Inuyasha's wishes. Normally this would be a good thing that Shippo was being loyal but not in this situation.
Inuyasha had put up a barrier. An incredibly strong barrier that could not be broken. Kikyo had been asked to break it but was unable to. Kagome was not able and even a few demon servants could not open it. They had all come to the conclusion that Inuyasha had tapped into his priestess heritage and made a barrier that was not only of demon strength but strong spiritual powers wownd tightly together.
The barrier had remained closed and only for food, some necessities to keep the prince clean, and to allow Shippo into the chambers was it ever opened (although the barrier recognized Shippo and rejected everyone else).
Eventually the other servants had even become concerned and voiced their concerns to Sesshomaru. Asking if he could perhaps find someone to destroy the barrier. He had in matter of speaking told them to not waste his time with trivial matters such as his mate's (he had shuddered at the word) silly tantrums.
Perhaps this would seem like a petty tantrum to any other demon. But this was Inuyasha. A half demon. And although he would live a long time, life for half demons was faster. Not in terms of time per say but there was always danger, always unhappiness lurking for half demons.
Sango sighed.
"Please master open the barrier!" She wished he would hear her. No one had even heard his voice because he blocked all sound inside the barrier.
There was no answer to her plea. She was so frustrated the panther demon hit the barrier. Smacking it with her fists over and over again.
"Damn it all!" Sango cursed hitting the barrier one final time harder than all the other times. Her fist collided with the barrier and she let it linger. She could hear the barrier protest to the pressure it had been assaulted with. Sango removed her fist eyes widening at the sight. The fist had left an indent mark but unlike any other time the barrier had been assaulted with force it did not restore itself. The fist mark remained. In fact she could see the beginnings of a minuscule crack and even a small noise.
This was her only chance she had to take it because she may have never had that chance again. Sango started her assault on the barrier. Kicking with all her might and increasing the force by focusing her demonic power in her legs. 'Open, Open, OPEN!' She thought to herself with determination. The cracks grew longer and more rigid and more sound was coming through. It sounded like someone was in pain. 'Your almost there just keep working!' She encouraged herself.
Sango focused all the energy she could she would make this the final blow. Closing her eyes concentrating on destroying the barrier she kicked with all her might. With pay off. The barrier shattered before her eyes.
Sango would not waste her time and ran into the room. The first thing she heard was a scream of pain. And a bulge on the bed nestled in blankets. Sango's eyes widened. She ran to the bed.
"Master!" She said tugging on the sheets. She knew this smell all to well. "Master please you need a healer." Sango felt resistance to the tugging. "Master please be reasonable!" Sango pleaded. And then she heard it the sickening sound of a bone cracking. The struggle stopped. Her eyes widened in panic.
Sango removed the sheets and gasped at what she saw. The boy sported no clothing and he was so thin. Or at least his face was, his cheeks were hollow, his eyes seemed unfocused, his head lolling to the side, the boys lips were blue, and his body seemed so broken, she could tell his ribs were cracked and broken. His breathing was uneven and rapid. However it was not his fragility that she had just noticed it was the markings that marred his skin. Demon markings, markings that he shouldn't have had since he had human blood.
On his forehead lay a sun marking orange in colour. Markings along his cheeks, wrists and hips followed. They greatly resembled Sesshomaru's own markings but in orange, yellows, and reds, instead of the purple and blue colouring. But even though all this was running through her mind to process, Sango still observed more. One of the biggest observations being the spiral marking pulsating on Inuyasha's stomach. The end a yellow becoming a deeper colour until it reached the belly button, by which point it was red.
Sango reached for her master but was met with a growl. Inuyasha snarled at the best of his ability. Her eyes met his, they were full of anguish, his pupils changing from purple to yellow. Sango flinched but still reached for him. Inuyasha was about to swipe at his servant with his claws but stopped when he felt a surge of pain well through him, his breathing sped extensively. Sango retreated slightly.
The spiral on Inuyasha's stomach started beating sporadically. Inuyasha was letting out puffs of breath. His eyes scrunched in pain, eye brows furrowing in pain. The boys mouth was open in a silent scream. Tears falling from his eyes. Sango watched as he curled into himself hugging his feet to his chest and shivering madly. This had to stop whatever it was. And she would have to help him, regardless of how much he fought he wasn't being himself.
Sango reached to him without fear this time. He let out a weak whimper that was meant to be a growl. Sango put one hand under his stomach. Sango tried to pull him closer but something happened...his eyes turned completely red. His body although weak lurched back and let out a howl of pain. Such a piercing howl that she was sure the whole palace heard his cry. Sango winced as her ears rang from the sound but the howl didn't stop they continued as though Inuyasha was calling for something. And then there was wetness.
Her eyes widened. Her master was in labor...
CLIFFY! Now aren't I a jerk? XP
