Chapter Five: Rescued
Sesshomaru stared emotionlessly at the bloody mass that was Kagome, his senses flooded by the disgusting smell of Naraku's Miasma, and the stench of human blood. He then turned his attention to Rin who was still sobbing.
"Rin, are you okay?" he asked as he walked over to her and placed his hand on her shoulder.
"No, Lord Sesshomaru, Rin was so scared, and now Kagome nee-san is dead!" Rin said with a sob as she clung to Sesshomaru, fearing that if she let go she would awaken to realize it was just a dream.
(A.N. I'm not that mean!)
"Rin, listen to me… did Naraku hurt you?" Sesshomaru asked as he rubbed her back in a soothing motion.
"No, Kagome wouldn't let him, nee-san always put up a barrier around Rin… and Naraku would hurt her instead." Rin said as she continued to sob.
Kagome, there was that name again… it sounded vaguely familiar, yet he just wasn't able to put a face to it.
And the suddenly it came to him… a distant memory of his insolent half brother screaming that name protectively.
And just as soon as that memory entered his mind, reorganization finally reached Sesshomaru, and images began to fill his mind.
Images of a strange girl…
A strange girl in green and white clothing that was far too revealing.
A girl he had once witnessed disappear into a well for three days.
A human girl that had refused to show any fear of him, something he Sesshomaru was not accustomed to.
The strange girl that had been able to succeed where both he, Sesshomaru, and his brother InuYasha had failed, the girl who had taken Tetsusaiga from its resting place.
The human miko who had broken the unbreakable spell on his bound brother.
A strange human miko named Kagome.
And yet why was Rin calling her sister? He could tell just from their scents that they were not related…
Once again his eyes were drawn to the bloody mass, and a shocking realization suddenly became evident in his eyes.
This strange human miko had sacrificed her own human safety to protect his ward… and from what he could tell she had paid dearly…
"Naraku hurt nee-san badly; he would cut her and hurt her in ways that would make her scream. He would also go inside her and hurt her more. Rin was so scared… all Rin could do was watch and cry…"
Sesshomaru closed his eyes in fury as he continued to hold the weeping child in his arms. How dare Naraku subject his ward to such sights, and how dare he subject a woman to such torture?
"Lord Sesshomaru… could you please save Kagome nee-san for Rin?" Rin asked hopefully as she glanced up at Sesshomaru, her tears slowly reducing to hiccoughs.
Opened his eyes slowly as he nodded to Rin, yes, he would save her. After all she had sacrificed herself to save his ward. And even though he would never openly admit it, he was in debt to her.
So with a natural grace Sesshomaru approached Kagome and listened inventively for any signs of life.
After a few seconds his sensitive youkai ears pinpointed the sound of a faint heartbeat. To be completely honest Sesshomaru was astonished, he had never expected a human to survive the torture; that Kagome had no doubted suffered through.
Sesshomaru then withdrew the tensaiga and disposed of the soul collectors that were beginning to gather around the dying woman. He then nodded with satisfaction as the severe wounds healed themselves with the aid of Tensaiga's magic.
He suddenly found himself being embraced once again by Rin.
"Thank you Lord Sesshomaru," Rin said cheerily as she continued to hug the man that she longed to call father…
Sesshomaru gave a small smile as he glanced down at Rin, he was glad that she was happy, he hated seeing her cry.
"Come Rin, we're going home." Sesshomaru said as he leaned over and gently picked up Kagome with his one arm and tail. The TaiYoukai was very careful not to cause the woman any more pain. And without another glance at the room Sesshomaru exited through his personally made door, a smile gracing his lips as he watched Rin glomp Ah-Uhn.
"Ah-Uhn, please bring Rin home, I will be carrying the Miko." The regal Lord said as he flew into the air, after summoning his cloud to his feet.
They arrived at the castle quickly, and Sesshomaru wasted no time in ordering his own personal healers to attend to the Miko under his strict watch.
Sango was furious.
InuYasha had spent a week looking for Kagome before he blatantly gave up, saying that 'there's no way a weak wench like Kagome could have survived a week with Naraku'.
It took all of Miroku's, Shippou's, and Kirara's strength to stop Sango from exterminating InuYasha that day.
Things only turned worse when InuYasha left for two days and returned with Kikyo, saying that the 'real' guardian of the Shikon no Tama would be much better help then some girl meddling in a time where she didn't belong.
At that point all Miroku could do was stare in shock as Sango beat InuYasha into the ground with the Hiraikotsu, he then continued to watch as she glared at Kikyo and then spun on her heel and stormed into the forest, leaving a furious undead miko, and an unconscious Half Breed Inu Youkai three feet down into the forest ground.
Miroku then shivered as Kikyo glared at him and he quickly grabbed the two smaller sleeping Youkai's before running after Sango in fear.
Once he found Sango he froze in place, she was in a clearing mumbling and grumbling, and her aura terrified him.
"CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT IGNORANT ASSHOLE? AFTER ALL KAGOME EVER DID FOR HIM, AFTER ALL THE LOVE SHE GAVE HIM, HE GIVES UP ON HER AFTER ONE FUCKING WEEK?" Sango screamed as she whirled on Miroku and began to stalk towards him.
Miroku meanwhile was frozen in place, his heart racing, as the object of his adoration caused him to tremble in his robes.
"Can you believe how quickly he replaced Kagome? I mean come on, one week and he's already moved on to the manipulative clay pot bitch. Oooooh I swear to every Kami out there I am to kill her again if I have to see her stupid fucking face one more time." Sango ranted as she paced around the clearing, Miroku watching her with complete fear etched into his eyes.
He had faced demons bigger then houses, he had faced ghosts and ghouls, he had even faced the terrors of the wind tunnel with barely a shiver of fear. Yet right now he was facing something much more terrifying then anything he had ever faced in his life, a woman's unbridled wrath.
After a few more minutes of Sango's ranting Miroku worked up enough nerve to speak, "Well Sango… since InuYasha doesn't want to go find our friend, how about we leave him and go do it ourselves." He suggested with a shrug of his shoulders.
"Oh Miroku you mean it?" Sango asked suddenly, the demon exterminator whirling around to rush and embrace the startled monk.
"Yes my precious Sango I mean it, let's leave now and go find Kagome." Miroku said, as a lecherous grin spread across his face.
Seconds later a smack resounded throughout the area and Miroku hit the ground unconscious, "IS THAT ALL YOU CAN EVER THINK ABOUT YOU LECH?" Sango screamed as she kicked the fallen monk.
Meanwhile the only thought running through Miroku's conscious mind was "Women, I'll never figure em out…"
Here we go, ok and to answer one question InuYasha is not going to be a hero in this fic, I am planning on a few new concepts on how I think the two inu brothers should be portrayed.
Please enjoy, read and review, and all that Jazz, I'm tired me need sleep.
