Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha or its characters.
Honestly, I was waiting to see if I could get to 80 reviews before I posted this chapter but I don't think that will happen and I really want to get this chapter on, cause I promised I would release a chapter a day. Anyways, we are officially half way into the story…yes, there are that many chapters left and yes, there are even more shocking, sweet and dramatic than the first half.
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO ALL THE MOM'S OF FANFICTION, like SHY WINTHROPE, I wish you all the best, continue to be wonderful mothers, guiders, protectors…mothers are irreplaceable in a child's life…and as a child of a single mother, I appreciate my mother's love and kindness even more. Even if it's not mother's day where you live, show your mom some love and if you don't live with your mom or your mom has sadly passed on, show your guardian some love and say a prayer for your mom…I'm sure she will hear it. ^_^ Unto the story…
SAVING ME
CHAPTER 23: BETRAYAL part 2
Rin ceased her speech again, taking deep breaths, trying to prevent herself from herself from hyperventilating. Sesshomaru moved to embraced her but she shivered, stepping away from him and he acquiesced, maybe it was not best while she was enduring such memories.
"The pain…was unbearable…" she whispered in a choked voice, tears wetting her cheeks.
"I prayed to God…and begged for a savior…and I asked what I had done…to deserve such a punishment…" she sobbed and it tore Sesshomaru's heart apart. He was split between intense hatred for the one who had done such atrocities to her and grief over what she had endured, he felt like crying.
"After he had done, burning these into my skin…it had already been a day. His men came to call him, I found out later that my father had taken my mother out to a Spa Retreat; he had told her that I was staying with Kohaku, my best friend. When they got home, I had already been returned to my bed. I couldn't walk…mom thought I had a bad period…my fath…Naraku, he didn't even look at me." She said in a flat emotionless voice.
"I came so close to telling mom but in the end, she was so weak…so attached to dad, I figured she wouldn't believe me and nothing could be done. But Kohaku knew immediately, I didn't want to touch him…or talk to him." She revealed but in the end she had eventually broken down and told him.
"The day I discovered I was pregnant…I told Kohaku…he was livid, he cried…he…tried to find him!" sobbed Rin and Sesshomaru could see the look of regret that crossed Sesshomaru's face. He could already tell that Sesshomaru knew without being told what had happened to Kohaku.
"They threw the remains of his body…in front of his house…but Kohaku had told them…him, that I was pregnant. I heard his men talking to my…Naraku, that he would take me that very night…I dropped my school bag and I ran, I just…" she finished and he nodded his understanding, watching as she wrapped her arm around herself.
"I can't get the vision of his green eyes in the darkness, out of my mind…" she whispered and Sesshomaru frowned. Green eyes was not such a common feature.
"Rin…what is the name of the man who did this to you?" he asked and she shivered.
"His name…was Koga Ookami…"
Sesshomaru froze and silence threatened the space.
"Ookami?" he repeated, anger engulfing him, as he grasped her shoulders. The name had brought warning bells ringing in his head. Rin nodded, shocked at his sudden turn of behavior. Suddenly, the loud bang of the door being kicked open and the alarm system screeching, had the two breaking apart and looking towards the door.
Rin's heart stalled, as she saw the familiar faces of Ginta and Hakkaku, Koga's favored followers, smirking as they leveled guns upon them.

Tencharms: Sorry for the intensity, even though, I omitted the actually scene where Rin was raped. I felt after writing it that it was a bit too graphic, I didn't want anyone to cry. *sad face*
