InuYasha Fan Fiction / Sailor Moon Fan Fiction ❯ Journey through the past ❯ Run ( Chapter 11 )
Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha or Sailor Moon.
A/n: yeah I'm sorry about taking so long but it took me forever to get my thoughts about this one cleared up and now I kind of have a clue as to where I want it go… and for some reason I kinda feel like complicating this fic a bit…
"Will you come eat, Serena-sama?" Sakue asked the girl watching her put on a furisode.
"Why do I wear a furisode Sakue, I have been married before." Serena gazed at the long sleeves of the kimono.
"But you are not married now, are you? You have explained that another has locked you here in the past… if this is your past then the marriage never happened."
"But it did happen you see…" She thought about the statement and shook her head at the snake female chuckled slightly. "Alright… I'll let it go on the grounds this material is beautiful." She spun in a circle trying to let out the energy she has been having. As of lately she has been feeling mighty restless.
"But it is true... you cannot go back to your time… there was no real determination to replace the loss of love in the marriage. We all know determination can replace love in a loveless marriage but with neither determination nor love it is not a marriage… So you are still unwed, especially since a consummation never occurred."
'No, I wouldn't allow it to happen." Serena sighed dejectedly. That is why her lovely daughter was never born yet… it never felt right to even fool around with Endymion.
"Come now it is time for dinner… Sesshoumaru-sama will be leaving tomorrow afternoon."
"He will?" Serena asked waiting for Sakue to finish tying the obi to her furisode. The outfit was simple, but tried and true to the Western Lords mark of the crescent moon. She could almost laugh; here she was the princess of the moon with a typical insignia blazing on her forehead and she's in love with a demon with the crescent mark of his own.
"Yes, around this time tomorrow something vital will happen to all with canine blood within them."
"Uh-huh…" She said following the female with her tongue flickering out. Serena assumed to lead her to the dining hall. Once there she saw Rin wearing an orange furisode, Sesshoumaru at the far in at the table with Jakken by his side. A chair next to Rin was where she was to sit. "Enjoy your evening Sakue."
"I will mistress." She said with a knowing smirk and slithered off.
"Sesshoumaru-sama, told Rin he'll be gone for a few days…" Rin said.
"Sakue told me he would be gone too." Serena said. She then began to eat her food just before Rin slowed down with a look of discomfort but continued eating.
"You will stay with Rin while Sesshoumaru-sama is gone, yes?"
"Yes, I will Rin." Serena smiled at the girl before she dropped her food on the plate at a bad angle making the cup with her tea in it tip over. "Rin??"
"It hurts…" She groaned out clutching her stomach.
"Rin, what's wrong?" Serena knelt next to her as she balled up on the floor.
"It had been slowly building up but it hurts…"
"What's wrong with her?" Sesshoumaru barked from the other end of the table.
*~*~~*
"I'm tired…" Kagome whined sliding to the ground off of Inuyasha's back.
"Keh. We have to keep moving if we want to get closer before dawn."
"Well you keep moving I'm going to sleep." Kagome said as Hotaru slid off of Shippo's back to sleep.
"Woman, keep moving or…"
"Or you'll what? Look at the moon's position Inuyasha." Kagome muttered. "We have been traveling for two days straight no break." She complained and Inuyasha followed her gaze. If he were to try to tell from the way Kagome kept time… it was around two o'clock AM. He was so dead set on fighting his "urges" and trying to make sure Kagome lived, he had completely forgotten he and the fox had to leave and now!
"Keh…"
"So you're going?" Hotaru asked Shippo.
"I have to if I don't want to jump you like crazy." He said and she laughed.
"But we are fiancées…"
"I know but the whole system is complicated… it will have to wait until Naraku's dead." He said softly.
"Why wait? You two are young engaged people. I say you should enjoy getting it while you can."
"You like to watch people too, Miroku??" Sango pinched his cheek to where he swore it was going to be a purple mark.
"Err…. No?"
"Houshi…"
"Come on Shippo… let's go." Inuyasha said feeling his own senses kick in and fast.
"See you in a few." He called as the two sprinted off.
"Bye…" Hotaru whispered watching them go.
"It's for the best honey…" Lita said.
"Especially in your situation..." Sango said. "If my memory serves right full blooded demons are more strongly affected by this rare time. Unlike Inuyasha who would've been showing heavy signs with the sunrise, Shippo would've been showing in a matter of moments… we can hope he further off before it settles in."

"Honey, tell me what's wrong or I can't help…" She trailed off noticing a crimson spot tarnishing the orange material. "Oh…" She stood up and lifted the girl easily.
"Woman…" Sesshoumaru barked once more.
"I HAVE A NAME!" She fussed at him. "Just have more tea made for her, another plate of food… lots of sweet things especially." She lifted her out. "You weigh as much as Taru-chan..." She said to the girl writhing a little in pain. "Shh… I know it hurts honey. It's part of the curse known as being a woman. Sometimes you're lucky and they're light pains." She laid the girl on her bed and pulled aspirin from her subspace pocket. "I may have to visit Kagome to have a better stock of these or just rely on herbal ways…" She muttered, having Rin swallow the pills and they immediately worked on the problem. In a few moments the tea arrived and Rin was sipping it as the pains eased.
"I'm sorry for ruining dinner." Rin sighed. "For such a stupid reason too."
"It's fine sweetie." Serena said. "Eat then rest…" She smoothed out the young girl's hair.
"I will once the pains had ceased." She said and Serena smiled walking out of the room. IT was of no real surprise when his stick in the ass majesty was standing outside.
"She is now of age to be giving life to others…" Serena said softly.
"You've been tampering with her ribbons." He said out of nowhere. Serena looked lost for a moment before remembering she had found ribbons in the girl's room and used them to put her hair in odangoes. They were no where as long as her original ones but without a doubt it kept her individual look that made her beauty seem timeless.
"Yeah, I was." She said softly. "It's late… you should be resting for you journey… or leaving for your journey." The words almost didn't register in his mind. Not at all… but seeing her like this. Dressed in the most beautiful of materials, her hair done to suit her totally and… he could see it on her… Her body was glowing in an odd sort of sense. It was beckoning him to touch her, kiss her, to ravage her in every possible sense.
"Sesshoumaru-sama…" Jakken could be heard but backed up with a low growl from him. "I'm too late…" Jakken noticed the heated gaze he was giving her.
"Run…" He simply said.
"Huh?" Her face gave off a clueless sense… but the air she was used to with him changed immensely. It seemed heavier with an unknown sense. She sort of backed up. She searched his face and the exterior there was gone in the hot glow his eyes gave. It was almost eerie…
"Run…" He uttered again with a harsh growl. She didn't have to be told twice for that one and she sped off down the long hallways of the building.
