Chapter four: Approaching Demon
Rin and Taguro enter the main dorm. They both saw the lord. In frustration, the lord threw a written scroll at the servant, "What is this, this can't be happening." "What is it my lord. Is there something wrong?" The lord glances at Rin, hovering at Taguro to come closer, whispering into hid ears, "We are at war now." Taguro felt confused. "But we didn't receive any warnings or previous notices. Rin then interrupted, "What are you both discussing about?"
"We need to gather our samurais quickly," demanded Lord Hodaime. "Why, what did the scroll announced," asks Taguro, as he picks up the scroll that had been thrown onto the floor. "This can't be happening to us, not now! We're not up to this! The western land, the demons, what do we have they could possibly want?"
"Western nation isn't that- it can't be. Lord Sesshomaru?" Rin thought to herself, thinking what she had remembered years ago.
Flashback...
"Jakken, what should I do when I arrive to his empire?" Rin gazed at the beautiful night sky filled with stars. "Are you planning to stay with us that long," questioned Jakken. Rin began to wine, gripping onto Jakken's shoulders, "Why can't I stay!!!!!!!!! Jakken began to struggle, as if she was suffocating him, "Stop doing that! You'll kill me, you MERE MORTAL!
End of flash back…
"It's Lord Sesshomaru. He has come back for me!" Rin felt so relieve for that all these years that her lord, Sesshomaru, has come back for her." "What did you say? Lord Sesshomaru, what does want from us?" Taguro felt angry, furiously ran towards her and held tightly on her wrist. "Stop, you're hurting me, Taguro, let go!" Taguro glares at Rin. "This why were having this war isn't it." He releases her wrist from his grip, "Who cares. If this demons wants to be slay, let him come." Rin knew that he felt angry but Rin couldn't stop but to think about Sesshomaru. "Taguro…" Rin knew that he felt distrusted.
"Let's go," Taguro demanded his samurais. Aya laughs and haughtily exclaims," You're such a disgrace to us all, you lowly servant! You are a shame!" She flatters her fan upon her face. Rin felt uneasy. "Why must this happen now?"
Lord Sesshomaru explores the forest, swifts through the forest searching for something. "Lord Sesshomaru, wait for me," called out Jakken. Sesshomaru stops, and wonders through the trunk of the tree. "So this is where you hid it mother." He found his Tenseiga, the healing sword that was hidden inside a tree of a thousands years healing. "Rin, I can still remember that day. He could still picture that time when he had test his sword, Tenseiga, on Rin when she had been killed by those wolves of Koga.
He tries not to think about her. "I was a fool to leave you with those human." He never wanted her to return but he knew it was the best for Rin. "Why should a demon like me harvest such feelings for a human?"
Sesshomaru puts his Tenseiga in his sheathe
"Why should I have this war with such pathetic humans?"
Flashback
"Mother, why do you seek to have this war," asks Sesshomaru. "Why do you ask such uncalled questions for, my son? I want you to banish these humans so I can take over there precious land, am I correct. I can possibly do anything now, since that fatherly fool (Sesshomaru and Inuyasha's father) isn't around anymore. By the way, you'll see what I mean," His mother chuckle. Jakken sighed, "I thought it was usually father like son but I guess I was wrong. These two are so similar in many ways. It's a bit scary. Sesshomaru's mother glares at Jakken, "Did you say something, Jakken?" Jakken gulped his words, "It's nothing your highness."
End of flashback
Sesshomaru shifts into the trees, leaping onto trees to trees. "This war better be for a good cause." Jakken runs after his lead "Wait for me!" Ah-Un steps on Jakken, flying towards Lord Sesshomaru. "Such lack of respect," said Jakken. It was already noon.
Meanwhile
Rin runs through the forest, looking for Taguro. She then spotted him, kneeling down beside the riverbanks. Taguro turns around and saw Rin walking towards him. "Rin, what…what are you doing here by yourself?" Rin smiles, "I came to get you of course. Taguro sighs, "I see." Rin sat next to him, "This river is so beautiful, and don't you think so, Taguro?" He tries to light up a smile and replies, "I guess it is."
"Sorry Rin. I couldn't control my feelings it's just that- I don't want that demon to take you away from me." Rin felt awkward. Well she was speechless, "Taguro-sama." Suddenly, Taguro grabs Rin, embracing her gently, "Rin, you are beautiful. If I was to marry anyone on my own free will, it would be you." Taguro raises his hands and gently brushes her cheeks. Rin could hear her own heart beat. It's not that she doesn't love him, it's that she doesn't love him the way he loves her. "Taguro-sama, I'm sorry but I can't-," said Rin as she pulls away from Taguro's grip. "Stay with me Rin." Rin could feel his breath against hers. "I don't want to," replies Rin. Taguro face saddened. "Why," ask Taguro, gripping onto her wrist a bit tighter. Rin felt frustrated. She wanted Taguro to let go of her but he kept pressuring her to stay. "BECAUSE I'M IN LOVE WITH LORD SESSHOMARU! "
