Hi everyone! It's me again~! And there is really nothing to point out this time so please feel free to ignore my ramblings and read =]
This is the finally part of the prologue so the next chapter will be the actually story.
The inspiration for this chapter is Moonlight shadow by Kokia
~~~Story time!! ~~~
The dining hall was huge compared to the room Rei was in before. There where three long cherry tables stretching from one end of the room to the other. Her head darted from side to side as she admired her surroundings with childlike innocence. "Sit down" The man ordered swiftly causing Rei to grimace at the coldness in his voice. "You're not a very nice person!" Rei informed him as she pushed a giant chair out from the table to plop herself onto it. He raised an eyebrow at her but didn't respond. "My daddy always told me you have to be nice to your guests." she kicked her feet back and forth. "I am not your father, and you are not my guest" he stated calmly "Well than why did you bring me here?" he narrowed his eyes at her "I do not have to explain myself to a child" "Well fine you don't have too" Rei puffed her lower lip out and slouched back into her chair waiting, impatiently, for the food to arrive.
When the food did arrive it did nothing to ease the silence of the room. The man 'Lord Sesshomaru', as the servants called him, just sat in his sit leaned back with his eyes closed not even paying attention to Rei as she harassed the servants for her every whim. Rei helped herself to all the exotic food that was placed in front of her. Sesshomaru opened his eyes briefly to glance at her. She returned he's glance with a goofy smile that almost made him want to smile, almost. Something about her smell made him impatient, odd as it was, he couldn't place it. The scent of vanilla mixed with the scent of cherry blossoms. He'd never smelled anything like it. He tensed, something was wrong, he could feel it. "Jaken!" He shouted moving from his chair and to the door of the dining hall in the blink of an eye. "Mi' lord!" a little imp barely breathed out before collapsing onto the floor. "Jaken what is the meaning out this?" Sesshomaru demanded, the imp frowned and reached up towards his master "We're under attack!"
Rei dropped her chopsticks and jumped from her seat. The imp saw her and immediately gave her a death glare. "I've gotta see this!" She announced trying to move past Sesshomaru, he held his hand out and stopped her, "You will finish your meal and return to your room" Rei grumbled and stomped back to her seat, sat down, but still didn't eat. 'How dare he tell me I can't go watch, the man who killed mommy and daddy could be out there...' she thought vilely. Se had to get away and see for herself but she knew as long as Sesshomaru and Jaken were there she'd never be able to. She smiled and jumped out of her seat "I'm going to my room now." She chimed as she jumped over the imp and smiled back at Sesshomaru, who was busy ordering his guards to take action.
Seeing it may be her only chance, Rei darted from the dining hall to the closest doors she could find. She grinned as the doors flew open and she breathed the fresh air. Her eyes widened when she saw the countless people outside the doors. Men fell around her. Blood rushing from the various wounds on their bodies. "No!" She mumbled her knees giving out from under her. The image of her father came into her mind. His purple hair coated in his own crimson blood, his face too, every part of his body was bleeding. She covered her eyes with her hands and pushed the memories away. "Kien!" She heard someone screaming though she didn't' really care to, see looked up. They were humans, the ones assaulting the castle, they were simple villagers trying to overthrow a demon army. "A child!" Rei tensed instantly and turned to look at the man shouting about her. She couldn't think, or feel anything, as the hands from one of the humans grabbed her shoulders. "Are you okay!?" A booming voice demanded as she stood there frozen in place. When she didn't answer the man tossed her over his shoulder. "!!!" Rei opened her mouth to scream but nothing came out. "It's okay the demon can't hurt you anymore" The man informed her she blinked and began to struggle against him, kicking and clawed for him to release her, he ignored her and quickened his pace away from the castle. Rei could feel tears in her eyes, she hadn't been there for a long time, yet she felt as though she needed to stay there, With Sesshomaru. She shot her head back to the castle and searched for someone to help her. Sesshomaru emerged from the castle entrance and locked onto her. She could feel her heart jump in her throat. But it was too late, she was too far for even him to reach in time. His amber eyes stared into her purple ones. "Lord Sesshomaru!" She cried tears streaming down her cheeks. Then he was gone, replaced by endless trees and a dreamless darkness.
