Chapter Thirty Two
"Where am I?" Rin asked as she slowly becomes conscious and aware of her surrounding. She moves around when she realizes her hands and legs are handcuffs to the wall. She was sitting down on the floor.
"No," she yanks at the chain attaching to the wall trying to break it off the wall, but couldn't and ended up burning her hands.
She sighs "I'm useless," she muttered then stares up at the moon through window that's with bars on it.
Suddenly the door opens revealing Viper standing there holding a tray in his hands. There was something different about him. He wasn't a boy, but a man that has brunette and his eyes were almost like human eyes except it was a little gold
"What happened to you?" Rin can help but asked "Aren't you supposed to be a boy?"
"This is my true form," he answered.
"So, you can shape shift now," she asked.
"Yes, but not exactly right," He sighs "the boy you saw me as before was a friend of mine, he died and I absorb his power".
"So, you can only shape shift to a person face when you absorb their power or energy," Rin says, understanding what Viper was saying.
"Correct," Viper walked over to her "I brought you some food," he says as he placed the tray in front of Rin.
Rin looked away "No, thank you, I'm not hungry," she rejects, kicking the tray slowly away with her foots.
"Not hungry you say," he smirks "you haven't eat much at all and we wouldn't want you to starve to death would we?'
Rin scoffs "Isn't that what you and Cobramaru wants?" she asked.
Viper folds his arms "Not exactly, we just want Sesshomaru and Saige even Inuyasha precious daughter Kiyomi, or should I say the only child they had left anyways".
"What do you mean by that?" Rin asked, not entirely understanding what Viper was trying to say.
"Oh," Viper blinks his eyes "That's right, you're not from the future," he smiles "Tell you what I'll filled you in on what happened in the future".
Rin glares at him "You might as well tell me why you have a grudge against Sesshomaru and Saige," she replied.
"So, you want to know why I have a grudge against your lover and daughter," Viper says.
Rin looked away slightly blushing, hiding it from Viper.
"Very well," Viper sighs "Might as well tell you everything you need to know since you're not going anywhere and that you might not survive".
Rin eyes widen "Might not survive? Does that mean I'm going to die by Cobramaru?" she wondered.
"Before I became Cobramaru's loyal servant, I lived a great life with my wife that I loved so much and willing to protect her," Viper begins.
~Viper's Past~
A brunette woman was sitting outside the hut sewing a kimono in her hands. She wearing a light purple kimono that long to her foots and a hair butterfly pin was resting on her hair.
"Masami?"
She looked up and smiles "Viper, you're back!" she got up and hugged him.
"What are you doing outside," Viper took off his outer layer of his kimono and wrapped around Masami "You're going to catch a cold".
"I know, but staying inside the hut all day is tiring so I went outside to get some fresh air," she told him.
"I see," Viper smiler "But you must be careful especially when demons and bandits can comes and hurt you".
Masami smiled and touched Viper's face "I understand your concern, but I'm capable of protecting myself especially..."
"When you're a demon slayer and human I must add" Viper smirked "Am I'm correct?"
"Precisely," she replied "But that doesn't mean I'm a weak human".
"You sure aren't when I first met you," he mentioned, remembering the first time he met Masami.
Masami laughs "I totally kick the crap out of you," she remarked.
"That because," he tapped her nose with his finger claw "I let you and didn't want to fight you".
"Yeah right!" she snorted "I remembered you didn't like me at all".
"Neither did you," he pointed out "You don't trust demons at all".
Masami smiled "I guess I change my mind about demons when I get to know you and developed feeling for you".
Viper wrapped his arms around Masami and pulled her into his arms "And I would never regret the day I met you because it's the best thing that happened to me. You mean the whole world to me and I would never trade anything for that," he told her.
There were tears in Masami eyes as she looked at him "Thank you," she softly replied before kissing him passionately.
The kiss didn't last long when they pulled away for air.
"So, where did you left to?" Masami asked.
"I was planning to go see the Lord of the Western," he replied.
"Sesshomaru?" said Masami.
Viper nodded "Have you heard of him?" he asked.
"Of course, I heard him as a powerful youkai demon dog and his hanyou brother, Inuyasha," Masami says "I heard Sesshomaru is cold heart and would kill anything that gets in the way".
Viper smirked "I'm not afraid of him; I want to challenge him and maybe become alliance with him".
"Are you sure you want to see him?" Masami asked in concern.
"Positive!" Viper touched her shoulders "Don't worry I'll be fine," he assured "Matter of fact, why don't you come with me and see him".
Masami looked away "I'm not sure if I should go especially when I'm human and demon slayer," she looked at him with a worried expression "and trust me when I say this, but demon slayer and demons don't get along".
"That's not true, I'm a demon and you're a demon slayer and we get along just fine," he points out.
Masami laughs "We are different from them".
"Why's that?" he asked.
"Because we are in loved with each other," she replied.
"True," he smiles "But I really want you to go with me. I don't care what other demons think. All I care about is you being with me".
"Alright, I'll go," she sighed, finally agreed.
"Great, Let get some rest because tomorrow we'll be going on a long journey," he told her.
"You go in first, I'm going to grab my stuff and be right in with you," she replied.
"Okay," He kissed her on the cheek "Don't be too long," Viper said before he left inside.
Masami grabbed her stuffs off the bench and then stared up at the sky, placing a hand over her stomach. She sighed and smiled "I hope everything would work out for Viper," she muttered and then left inside the hut.
~End of Viper's Past~
"I should have never told her come with me," Viper tightens his fists "That's what I regret the most.
"So, Viper was in loved with a human that was a demon slayer," Rin thoughts to herself, feeling a little sympathy "Did something happened to Masami that made Viper this way?" she wondered "Does it has anything to do with Lord Sesshomaru?"
{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}
"Sesshomaru, I can explain," Inuyasha says as he walked up to Sesshomaru and Saige.
"I want an answer now, Inuyasha," Sesshomaru insisted "Tell me what happen to Rin".
"Cobramaru kidnapped her," Inuyasha replied. Sesshomaru tighten his fists.
Kagome walked up next to Inuyasha "We were trying to save Rin, but in order to save Rin, we would have to trade Kiyomi for her," she explained, helping Inuyasha out.
"But why would he want Kiyomi?" Miroku asked.
"He need a powerful source to resurrect himself," Saige spoke all of sudden and everyone looked at her "He has this plan all along so he's using Rin assumes that we would give Kiyomi to get Rin back".
Sesshomaru walked over to her "Do you have a plan?" he asked.
She looked at him "Matter of fact I do have a plan," she replied "But it depend on whether you willing to cooperate and trust me".

"I still remembered that day me and Masami meet Sesshomaru as if it was yesterday," Viper recalled the day he met Sesshomaru, which was the day that everything came crumpling down for him.
~Viper's Past~
Masami and Viper has made it to the western castle. They were standing in front the door of the castle. Viper was about to knocked on it when Masami grabbed his arm "Wait, maybe this is a bad idea," she says with uncertainty.
Viper smiles and touched Masami's hand "Relax, everything is fine," he assured before he knocked on the door.
The door of the castle open and two soldiers approached them "State you reason coming here," one of the soldiers asked.
"I'm here to see Sesshomaru, the lord of the western," Viper replied as he stood in front of Masami.
"Very well, follow us," the two soldiers lead the way. They went passed the yard where there were soldiers training. Then they went through a long hallway that never ends.
"Wow, this place is big," Masami remarked, admiring the place.
Suddenly a woman wearing a light orange kimono, a slightly big stomach was walking toward them with a smile. The two soldiers immediately stopped and bow down to her.
"Hi," she greeted "My name is Rin, I heard you are here to meet Sesshomaru".
Viper and Masami bowed down to her. "Yes, we are here to see Lord Sesshomaru," Viper answered politely.
"He's at the meeting and it's about time when the meeting is about to be over," Rin told them.
"That's okay, we can wait," Masami smiles "My name is Masami by the way," she extended her hand out toward Rin.
"Masami," Rin shaked Masami's hand "you're a demon slayer aren't you?'
"Why yes," Masami smiled "What gave it away?"
Rin chuckled "It's your name, I heard my friend mentions about you".
"Would your friend be a demon slayer also?" Masami can help it, but asked.
Rin nodded "Yes, her named is Sango".
"Sango, I know her," Masami surprised to her that name "Me and here used to train together".
"Really?" Rin asked, surprised to find out that Masami knew Sango.
"Yeah, we are best friend, but we lost contact with each other," Masami said "How is she?"
Viper smiles knowing that Masami has met a person that she talked to which is human that surprised him? He smirked "I didn't know Sesshomaru let human stay in his castle. I wonder what she is to Sesshomaru?" he thought.
A Soldier suddenly approached Viper "Lord Sesshomaru will see you now," he told Viper.
"Thank you," Viper replied. He walked over to Masami "Masami, I'm going to go see Sesshomaru so you can stay here if you like".
Masami nodded "Okay," she replied.
He gave her a quick kiss on the cheek and left with the soldier.
"C'mon with me," Rin said "We can talk more in my room if you like".
"Sure," Masami agreed and followed Rin down the passing seven doors until they reached to the eight doors on the right side.
Rin opened the door and let Masami walked inside.
"Wow, it's beautiful!" Masami exclaimed, looking around the room.
The room was indeed huge with one king size bed in the middle, next to bed was a table with a mirror in front and items were laying neatly on the table. Then there a double doors that lead outside to the balcony. The room was covering in the color white.
"This is your room, Rin?" Masami asked.
"Um," Rin blushed "It's actually mine and Sesshomaru room," she says quietly to where Masami can hear her.
Masami gasped and looked Rin in shock "You and Sesshomaru?"
Rin nodded
Masami smiled "Well I guess I'm not the only one fallen in love with a demon".
"Yeah," Rin smiled "It's happened".
Masami sat down on the king size bed "So, I take that you and Sesshomaru already..."
"Of course," Rin replied rather quickly before Masami can finish the rest of her sentence.
Masami notices Rin was blushing madly and laughed "You should see your face!"
Rin chuckles "I know," she replied.
Abruptly, Masami felt a pain from stomach and her hand immediately clutched to her stomach.
"Are you okay?" Rin asked, when she noticed Masami was in pain.
Masami take one deep breath and the pain went away "No, I'm fine," she replied.
Rin suddenly realizes something "Masami, are you..." she hesitated to ask.
"Pregnant, is that what you were trying to asked?" Masami replied when she notices was difficulties speaking the word out.
Rin nodded.
"Yes," Masami admitted.
"Congratulation, Does Viper know yet?" Rin asked.
Masami sighed "No, I haven't told him, but I'm planning to".
"Viper is going to be so happy when he find out," Rin smiled.
Masami blinked her eyes "How would you know?" she asked.
"Well," Rin looked and placed a hand on her stomach, rubbing it "Because I'm also pregnant too".
Masami gasped and smiled "Congratulation!" she cheered and hugged Rin "So, did you told Sesshomaru?"
Rin nodded
"How did he take it?"
Rin smiled, remembered how she told Sesshomaru and what his reaction was "He was happy," she says "Honestly, I was worried at first about telling him because I was scared that he wouldn't accept the baby because it hanyou, but turned out, he was fine with it and accept the baby the way it is".
"Glad to hear that," Masami replied.
"So, are you nervous to tell Viper?" Rin asked.
"A little nervous," Masami sighed and then smiles "But, I know everything will turn out okay for me," she turned and looked Rin "Have you thought a name for your baby?"
"Well, I haven't thought of one yet," Rin said "me and Sesshomaru thinking about naming the baby Saige.
"Saige, that's a great name!" Masami commented.
"Thanks," Rin replied with a smile.
{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}
Sesshomaru was in his library looking at something when a knock door interrupted him "Enter!" he said without looking up.
A soldier came in and bowed down to Sesshomaru "My Lord, Viper is here to see you," he explained.
"Sent him in," was the reply from Sesshomaru.
"Yes sir," the soldier replied and left out the door as Viper came walking in. Sesshomaru closed his book and got up from his seat.
"This better be good," he said.
"Sesshomaru, how nice to meet you," Viper replied.
"Hn," Sesshomaru walked up to him "What do you want?" he asked.
"I want to challenge you to see who's strong," Viper replied.
Sesshomaru placed his hand on the handle of his Baksaiga "Interesting, you can here want to challenge me, knowing that you will be defeated by me".
Viper smirked "I would say that, who know I might win," he taunted.
Sesshomaru glared at Viper. Even though Viper was annoyed to him, he heard from what he know that Viper is a fighter and indeed strong. So Viper can be useful and a big helped to him.
"I accept your challenge," he agreed "but under one circumstance".
"I'm listening," Viper said.
"If I won, we will become allies, we will battle tomorrow" Sesshomaru replied.
"You got yourself a deal," Viper agreed "So, what's up with the human girl named Rin, is she important to you?"
"It's none of your concern," he replied coldly.
Viper held his hands up "Ok, but I totally understand if you have fallen in love with her".
"How do know that?" Sesshomaru growled, not appreciating Viper sticking his nose into his love life.
"Because I also fallen in love with a human," Viper admitted "But not just any human, a demon slayer".
"Hn," Sesshomaru smirked "Fallen for a demon slayer, just like Inuyasha fallen for that priestess".
"You fallen for a demon slayer is not my concern and I don't need to tell you anything about my life either," Sesshomaru replied as he sat down in chair "Now, escort yourself out".
"Very well, see at the battle field tomorrow," Viper nodded and left.
~End of Viper's Past~
A soldier came in and whispers in Viper's ear and then Viper gestures the soldier to leave.
"Well, aren't you going to continue telling me what happened?" Rin asked, waiting to hear the rest.
"Tomorrow, I tell the rest tomorrow," he replied before he left out the door, closing it shut.
"So, I and Lord Sesshomaru know Viper in the future. I'm friend with Masami who already dead. The question is how she died? Rin thought "Could there be a misunderstanding between Lord Sesshomaru and Viper?
She knew that Viper and Sesshomaru were once allies, but why did it all fall apart.
Was there someone else causing Sesshomaru and Viper to turned against each other.
Rin was determining to make Viper tell her everything and maybe the information might useful and be a big help. She may be capture, but that doesn't mean she will give up that easily on trying to escape.
She hopes that Saige wouldn't try anything to stupid and get herself hurt in process. As for Sesshomaru, she knew he would immediately find his way to her and to rescue her.
"Please be okay and don't fall into a trap," she thought as her mind was thinking about Saige, Sesshomaru, and the others.
{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}
"We need to split up," Saige suggested.
"No way!" Inuyasha disagreed "I'm not letting you go alone, Saige!"
"That's too dangerous for you," Kagome replied, worrying for Saige.
"You're not going alone, Saige," Sesshomaru says, giving Saige an "I mean it" look.
Saige tighten her fists "It doesn't concern whether you disagree or agree, but I'm letting you know if you follow me, you will be walking right into Cobramaru's trap".
"That's a risk I'm willing to take," Inuyasha agreed.
"I got an idea," Ella spokes all of sudden and everyone looked at her "Lord Sesshomaru will go will Inuyasha through the back of the castle while me, Kohaku, Kagome,and Saige go through the front to distract Cobramaru and Viper".
"Sound like a good plan," Kagome agreed.
"What about us?" Sango asked
"You, Miroku, and Shippo will stay here and protect Kiyomi," Ella replied.
Sango, Miroku, and Shippo nodded.
Saige walked over to Kagome giving her the square box that she took out from her sleeves.
Kagome opens it and saw an arrow with blood stain on it "An arrow?"
"You are going to shoot this arrow at Cobramaru when it's the right time," Saige said "The blood stain belong to Cobramaru, you were the one that shot him with it. The arrow was dip in poison. Totosai sent Kiyomi here to give it me so I can give it you. You only have one chance to shoot this arrow at Cobramaru".
"I understand," Kagome nods "I will shoot when the time comes".
Saige walked away "Let's go!"
Sesshomaru and Inuyasha left ahead of Saige, taking off into the forest. Then Saige, Kohaku, Ella, and Kagome enter into the forest.
TBC: Whew this was a long chapter! The next chapter will have more of Viper's past. It will explain why Saige didn't killed Viper and also scene of Saige, Ella, Kohaku, and Kagome.
I sense something is going to happen to Kiyomi.
