Sesshomaru's Red Eyes

Chapter 5:

Heart to Heart with the Emotionless One

XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO

"Be not a fool, Slayer," Sesshomaru began spitefully, "You are not, nor will you ever be my equal in battle, or anything else!" He stood up and pointed Tokijin in InuYasha's, Kagome's and Miroku's direction. "InuYasha, face me, and die now with honor."

"You jerk," Kagome said.

"How can you care so little for your own flesh and blood!" Sango shouted up at him, "You should consider yourself lucky to even have a brother at all!" She, of course, was thinking of Kohaku when she said that, and everyone except for Sesshomaru knew it.

"Spare me," he said. InuYasha tugged out of his friends' grips, "Sesshomaru, you're going to pay for this, I promise you- I'm gonna rip out your spine, and use it as my own whip while I tear you to shreds with it!" He ran at his brother, somehow still able to keep Tetsusaiga high above his head.

"InuYasha, stop- he'll kill you!" Miroku yelled.

"INUYASHA-NOOOOOO!" Kagome screamed.

InuYasha was right in front of Sesshomaru now, blood still spilling from his wounds. An arrow flew through the air, splitting the two powerful swords apart. Then, two more arrows followed, one aimed for Sesshomaru, the other- InuYasha! Once again, the cry of "HIRAIKOTSU!" was heard. Sango had unleashed her boomerang, sending it flying into the two arrows, knocking them to the side. When Sango's weapon returned to her hand, she said, "Who did that!" It couldn't have been Kagome, she would never try to hit InuYasha... A voice carried from the forest, and a young woman stepped out of the shadows, "InuYasha, you are close to death, I was merely trying to do you a favor."

InuYasha recognized that voice- "Ki- Kikyo!" Kikyo laughed coldly, "Yes, you fool, it is I."

"You dare to attempt to take InuYasha's life, he is mine." Sesshomaru said coldly.

"Silence, it could not be any easier to tell that you are brothers, you're so alike. You would have died too, if one of InuYasha's foolish friends had not interfered as they always do."

"It is you who should be silent, I, Lord of the Western Lands answer to no one- especially not you, wench of InuYasha!" InuYasha's ears twitched, "She's not my wench, Sesshomaru, she's too busy trying to kill me all the time!"

Kikyo smiled evilly. If possible, Kagome's mouth dropped open even more. "It would be well worth my effort if I could get you alone so I could drag you to hell, this, as you can see, is not that time- so I bid you farewell."

Kikyo disappeared into the trees from which she came. InuYasha fell to his knees, he just couldn't stand anymore. His three friends kneeled by his side. "InuYasha," Kagome said softly. (Author's note:Kikyo is such a bitch, I hate her!)(Fluffy'sbabe:hell yeah she is!)

Sango stood up, facing Sesshomaru, "If you fight InuYasha when he's in this condition, it only proves how much of a coward you are," she said calmly, although her voice did waver a bit.

"So you say that I am a coward," Sesshomaru returned, "Then I shall prove how little of a coward I really am. Follow me- you shall have to carry him, I have yet to sink so low as to do it myself."

"Huh?" the three humans replied in unison. InuYasha had finally passed out. "Well, what is it you are waiting for? Do you want him to bleed to death right here?"

"No..." Kagome said slowly. Sesshomaru lowered his head impatiently and began to walk in the direction of his castle.

"We don't have much of a choice," Miroku said, "Help me lift him." With some difficultly, they were able to pick him up.

Sesshomaru turned around and saw them struggling, "Humans, how weak they are," he said. That remark only made the three friends stronger, and they set off after Sesshomaru in a much quicker pace.

InuYasha was laid down on a bed. Kagome couldn't help but notice that it was just that, a bed, with pillows and sheets. Well, Sesshomaru is Lord of the Western Lands after all,' she thought. She began to pull medical supplies out of her yellow bag, "Miroku, Shippo, can you go get me some warm water for InuYasha's wounds?"

"Sure, Kagome, although I have no idea where to start looking, this castle is sooo big!" Shippo replied. Sesshomaru had left them there to tend to InuYasha's injuries.

"What can I do?" Sango asked.

"Oh, just help me dress his wounds, Sango." Miroku and Shippo left.

"What I really need you to do is go talk to Sesshomaru," Kagome began.

"What?"

"I know it sounds a bit..."

"Harsh," Sango said, "just like him."

"Um, yeah, but you didn't hear what he said while you were asleep, Sango."

"Which was?"

"He said that he made sure you were asleep longer because you were injured."

"Are you sure you weren't groggy when you heard him say that?"

"Positive, and he is actually helping InuYasha, I think for some reason he's softer than usual today."

"And what is it that you propose I talk to him about?"

"Well...maybe he'll become even more soft if you ask him why he hates InuYasha so much."

"That will only make him more angry!"

"I don't think so because he's had no one to share his feelings with, maybe that's all he needs."

Sango sighed heavily, 'Come on, Kagome,' she thought, 'That youkai is completely emotionless!' "Although its against my better judgment, I'll do it for InuYasha's sake," she said.

"Oh thank you, Sango!" Kagome said gratefully. With that, Sango left. She had to go search for that youkai.

XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO

A half an hour later, her search took her outside. She had looked through the entire castle, at least she thought so. The very last traces of the sun were present on the horizon. The stars were coming out, and the moon was a quarter full...

Sango looked around her, before when she was carting InuYasha inside, she had not noticed the beautiful garden that lay before her now. Rose bushes, lilies, and sakura blossoms...Sakura blossoms were her favorite flowers...

"Out rather late, aren't you, Slayer?"

"Sesshomaru?" Sango called uncertainly.

"That's Lord Sesshomaru, Slayer." Sango realized where he was now. She pushed back the drooping branches of a great willow tree, and saw him standing up, leaning his arm against the tree. She let the branches fall behind her as she stepped in.

"Then you must call me by the name of Sango, not Slayer."

"I will not be told what to say."

"Please, that is my request. Besides, I could have very well saved your life today."

"You'd like to think that, wouldn't you? But you did nothing. I could have dodged that arrow with ease, I just never got the chance."

"I'll have to keep arguing with you then."

"Fine then...Sango."

Sango nodded in agreement," There now that wasn't so bad, now was it?" When Sesshomaru didn't answer her, she asked, "How's your shoulder?"

"My shoulder?"

"Yes, yours."

Sesshomaru shook his head, "I'll give you one thing, you are surprising, how does the monk keep up with your tenacity?" Sango didn't want to be reminded of her problems with Miroku so she didn't answer.

"I see, the monk doesn't have much honor, does he?"

"He is quite honorable, even up to your standards."

Sesshomaru chuckled softly, "Yes, the other human girl told me his way." He turned facing her, "So you must forgive me if I don't believe a word of that." Sango shifted uncomfortably and took a step back. "What's wrong, Sango? Are you intimidated by me?"

"You wish."

"Then I suppose you wouldn't mind if I stepped closer to you?" Sango didn't answer. She turned around. Sesshomaru used demon speed to land right in front of her. She turned to face him, and looked up into his golden eyes. 'They're so beautiful,' she thought, 'but they show no emotion.' Sango was suddenly aware of everything around her- like Sesshomaru's silver hair blowing across his face. In all honesty, it gave her the creeps. He was so evil...and yet...'No, stop it!' she thought, giving herself a reality check. 'He's pure evil- he wants to kill InuYasha! Besides, he doesn't even come close to Miroku! What? Now your comparing him to Miroku! BAKA!'

"I believe," Sesshomaru began, "that you searched me out, so tell me, what concerns you- I'm sure its something about me, is it not?"

"Humph, don't flatter yourself!"

"She speaks."

"Yeah, and there's a whole lot more where that came from!" Sesshomaru raised an eyebrow. 'Well, I might as well come right out with it.' "Sesshomaru, why do you despise InuYasha so much?"

"You really want to know?"

"Of course I do, why else would I ask!"

"Fine then, I'll tell you."
