InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Animal I've Become ❯ Chapter 5 ( Chapter 5 )

[ T - Teen: Not suitable for readers under 13 ]

A/n: Hello everyone! W00t! Me producing chapters will be an elective for my home schooling. But the catch is people have to critique it. Meaning people telling me what they exactly think of it. Like “this sucks” or “this rocks” or more detailed. Of course “I love it” works as well or “I hate it” just something like that. But anyways, onto more important matters, such as this next chapter! No shout outs, far too lazy!
 
Disclaimers: I swear I'm repeating myself, which Sesshoumaru hates! No I don't own them, damnit, now I'm going to cry -off in the distances- where's my chocolate ice cream!?

Rin's P.O.V

I saw Sesshoumaru-sama pass by me with a funny look on his face! Really it was funny; I don't think I've ever seen a face like that before, especially on Sesshoumaru-sama. It looked like he was talking to himself in his mind, and having an argument about what flower was prettiest! Then earlier, I saw him in front of Kagome's room, mumbling about something. It sounded a lot like the words “freaked” or “funky” or “slap” and “hentai” what does that word mean anyways? Hentai? I've never heard that word before, except when Kagome's friend with the pink on her clothes slapped that one man with the purple robes on. But, the man was touching her butt, so why would Sesshoumaru-sama say hentai? Maybe he was thinking about what had happened in the clearing, maybe he doesn't know what hentai means, but Sesshoumaru-sama is smart, he knows practically everything! I got it! I should ask him what it means.
 
 
Hmm, so where is Sesshoumaru-sama? Oh, maybe he is in his study, doing work, I have no clue what he does, but he says its work. I skipped to his study door, and stared at it for a few minutes before knocking. Yay, Sesshoumaru-sama is in there! Like usual he always sits in his chair and scratches something on the parchment, how boring it must be, but oh well! That's just how my Sesshoumaru-sama is! But now its time to get down to business.
 
 
“Sesshoumaru-sama? Can I ask you a question?” well technically that is asking three questions total right?
 
 
“Hmm? What is it Rin?”
 
 
“What does hentai mean?”
 
 
“Ano..uhhh… Where did you hear that word Rin?” was Sesshoumaru-sama stuttering?
 
 
“Well, I heard it from the lady with the pink and black clothes on that is Kagome's friend in the clearing, and I heard it from you.”
 
 
“You... ahem, you heard it from me?” Is Sesshoumaru-sama trying to avoid the question?
 
 
“Yes. So what does hentai mean?”
 
 
Sesshoumaru-sama sighed, “Hentai means pervert, Rin.”
 
 
“Pervert? Then, why would you say Kagome would call you a hentai and slap you?”
 
 
“Ano… well, Rin, Kagome is a grown woman, and thinks differently than others. So meaning she would just…randomly say it.”
 
 
“Oh, I guess that makes sense! Well…oops, I need to get to bed! Night Sesshoumaru-sama!” exit stage left, whatever that means, I just learned that from Kagome.

Sesshoumaru's P.O.V
-----------------------
 
 
 
 
Oh Kami, why did Rin have to hear me mumble in the hall? I hope she didn't hear anything else. If she did that would be the end of my reputation as a cold-hearted bastard, and turn me into a perverted Demon Lord. I shuddered; do I really want to be perverted? Maybe a little bit. Wait! Hold the phone, what is a phone anyways? I don't want to be a pervert, and I need to stop using words I've never used before! I seriously need a vacation.

Kagome's P.O.V
-------------
 
 
 
 
What the hell does Sesshoumaru think he is doing?! If I didn't know any better I would think he was secretly a pervert, kind of like Miroku. Oh EW! I need to not think along those lines again. I don't know what I would do if Sesshoumaru was actually like that. If he was like Miroku, he would actually be worse, because he is a Demon Lord! Ok, new topic… hmm… such as what I'm going to be doing in this place.
 
I decided that I should get out of the hot spring before I turn into a prune, those things are gross looking. Thank Kami that Sesshoumaru isn't in here anymore, I swear he is different now; I just don't know what's different about him, though. Well now that I got out of the hot spring and dressed, I need something to do. Maybe I should go pay Sesshoumaru a visit. As I walk along the dark corridors of this maze like fortress, I can see that they are clean, but look like they've seen better days, and more people. I stopped in front of a door, I don't know whose door it is, my feet just lead me here, and I guess there's no harm in checking out what's behind it, ne? So I gently slide it open with my foot, and peeked in, well looks like I found Sesshoumaru and his study. Please say he didn't spot me!
 
“I know you're there, I've known where you were since you left your chambers.”
 
“Eep!” damn he scares the shit out of me when he does that!
 
“Come in. I know you won't leave me alone now. It's a good thing you came; I have some questions to ask you.” He seemed like he was resigning himself to something, I just don't know what.
 
“Hai, Sesshoumaru…” I guess there is no way of escaping this.
 
So I walked in, sliding the door shut behind me, then plopped myself down on a cushion directly across from Sesshoumaru. I wonder what he wants to ask me.
 
“Now tell me, why is it that you are a demon now?” I guess he is going to get straight down to business…
 
“I was a demon in hiding.” No need for details, unless he asks for them.
 
“Where?”
 
“In the future.”
 
“Why?”
 
“My mother thought it was best.”
 
“Why?”
 
“Kami, is that all you do is one word questions!?”
 
“No. Why did your mother think it was best?”
 
“Because Menomaru killed my father and my mother thought he wanted to kill me as well as my brother and grandfather.”
 
“Why did you abandon my half-breed brother?”
 
“He betrayed me.”
 
“How?”
 
“Said I was jealous of the clay pot, and said I would turn on them.”
 
“Interesting.”
 
“Is that all you want to know?”
 
“No.”
 
“Would you answer with more than one word?!”
 
“Why did you attempt to kill yourself?”
 
“Because.”
 
“Because why?”
 
“Just because.”
 
“Tell me.”
 
“No one cares what happens to me.”
 
“What about your family in the future?”
 
“I'm not going back.”
 
“What about the Monk, the kitsune, and the Demon Exterminator?”
 
“They don't like the new me.”
 
“So you killed yourself because you think no one cares about you?”
 
“That, and I'm too lonely to live.”
 
“So you want someone to be with you, and to care?”
 
“Hai.” Damn prying bastard… now look what he made me do, I'm crying, now I'm more pathetic than before!

Sesshoumaru's P.O.V
-------------------
 
 
 
 
I looked over at the girl, I mean Kagome after she answered my last question. The smell of salt soon reached my sensitive nose, she was crying. I guess she really is sensitive about all this. Hmm, I really have no clue on how to comfort a crying female, and I usually know everything! So I guess I'll just let my instincts lead me? Why do I sound so uncertain? Never in all my years have I ever sounded uncertain.
 
I decided on what I would do. So I pulled Kagome into my lap, letting her head bury into my chest. I could feel her tears through my haori; her sobs were wracking her body. I gently stroked her hair with my claws, still unsure on how to comfort a crying woman. Pretty soon she stopped crying and just clung to my haori for dear life, so I just picked her up and carried her to my bed, which happened to be the door next to the study. She looked stunning even with a tear streaked face; I ever so gently laid her on my bed, but she wouldn't let go, so naturally I slide out of my haori and let her sleep but before that, I kissed her on her forehead, and then left the room. I guess now would be a good time to leave. So I just left, leaving orders with Jaken on what Kagome would be doing while she was here and while I was gone.

A/n: Yea, I know it's been a long time since I last updated in this story, but I had a bad case of writers block, and I still do. But I decided I should at least try and get a chapter out, even if it is short. But, there is slight fluff in it towards the ending as you can see. Until next time Ja ne!
