Theme 18: Rainbow
That had been a memory of the dead priestess, the incarnation of Kagome, Miko Kikyo.
Sesshomaru has been aware of the Hanyou's brief tryst with the woman which lead to his being sealed to the tree for fifty years, but to see it in vivid detail is something else.
Sesshomaru didn't know whether to be disdainful of Inuyasha, the past of him that was his knew that he should be disgusted, but he part that was intertwined with Inuyasha's heart had felt the longing in his soul for the woman, and the utter betrayal. It was more than Sesshomaru had ever felt in his entire life.
Taiyoukai had the ability to separate emotion and action and give them to their beast, but Hanyou were different as their beasts were separated from them. To be forced to experience so much feeling, it was exhausting.
"OK, Its lunch time!" the Miko suddenly exclaimed as the group settled down for rest.
She poured hot water into strange containers of many colours and waited several minutes, then she handed one to each.
Slowly she gave one to him "Here Inuyasha, its ninja food, your favourite."
Ninja food? Sesshomaru glanced down at the steaming pot in distain. "No thanks"
"Come one" she whined, just try it. You probably don't remember, but you love this stuff"
He vaguely recalled sitting upon a pile of bones in the middle of a battle field, eating the stuff. The part of him that was Inuyasha was practically wagging its tail. If only to shut it and the girl up, he took the food.
It was noodles, and it tasted disgusting. But the body he resided in lapped it up gleefully.
