Chapter 2~Punishment and Pleas!
~~~Inuyasha was tied to a tree, as villagers threw rocks and stones and sticks and even lashed out at him with whips. Inuyasha did nothing but indured the pain with tears in his eyes. Not tears for what was happening to him, hell if he wanted to he could break free and kill every single villager here, but he didnt, because he deserved thier hatred and anger, he deserved to die and he was sure he would when Sango and Miroku got to him. They had yet to leave Kaede's hut where they had taken Kagome and Yoshi's bodies, once Inuyasha had curled up into a ball and cried like a baby. He had killed Kagome. He had murdered the only woman he had ever loved. And why? Cause he was jealous, a fuckin moran who hadnt been able to stop the demon blood in him. For the first time in his life he wished he had never been born with a single drop of demon blood. He wanted to die. He prayed for death. He had never felt so awfull in his entire life, not even when Kikyo had betrayed him. The thought of Kagome's supposed betrayal was much more intense that it had made him snap and drive him mad.
~~He could vaguely hear the villagers spitting foul ugly words at him, cursing him as they struck him with what ever they got their hands on. But Inuyasha's mind was not on them, he was curling into himself, till he smelt it and his head snapped foward. This frightened the villagers, all this time the half demon had not moved or made a sound as they had tormented him and punished him slightly till his friends and Kaede could decide his fate. Now that he moved his head they all stepped back in fear. Inuyasha smelt the air, and his heart leapt. The one person in the world he needed now more than ever was close, but he knew that he would skirt the village unless Inuyasha got his attention. So Inuyasha howled, in it was a dog demon plea for help. In a blink of an eye he was there. And Inuyasha couldnt think of a time he was ever glad to see his hated half brother Sesshoumaru.
"Why have you called me little brother?" Sesshoumaru asked in an icy cold tone. He had heard his brothers call for help. He had briefly debated going to him, since he didnt give one iota whether his brother was in trouble or not, but it had piqued his curiosity. Inuyasha never asked for help from anyone, least of all him.
~~~Sesshoumaru looked at the villagers who were retreating and scurring back to thier homes crying out in alarm, yelling for help. He saw Inuyasha's monk and exterminator companions run out of the hut where the old miko lived. But he did not see Inuyasha's wentch, but he smelled it. Her blood and anothers. She was not in this world anylonger. Sesshoumaru was intrigued. Who had killed her? And why were not Inuyasha's companions helping him now? Why were they allowing the villagers to torment him as he layed bare chested against a tree tied up? And why did not Inuyasha break his bonds himself? They could not hold him, he was to strong.
"Sesshoumaru?? what the hell do you want??? Get out of here!" Sango yelled at him as she reached behind her to grab her boomerrang from her back.
"Why are ye here Lord of the Western Lands?" asked the old Miko calmly. She did nothing but look at him, as the Monk prepared to open his air rip to attack.
"My brother summoned me..I was curious as to why he would do so, since he knows I care nothing for him and would more than likely kill him instead of aiding him." he replied dryly as he turned to Inuyasha, who had tears running down his eyes. Now this did cause a reaction from the cold stoic demon lord. He gaped. Then regained his senses and went back to normal.
"Please...I...I didnt mean to...Oooh Gods I didnt mean it!!!...Please Sess..Sesshoumaru..please...bring her back...please bring her back to me...please..please...plea...." Inuyasha pleaded desprately before he broke into tears and chest racking sobs. This to startled Sesshoumaru so much he flinched and felt a tightness in his chest before he pushed it all aside once more.
"So it was you who killed your own wentch?" Sesshoumaru asked, as he ignored a few sobs from the humans behind him. The female exterminator was in tears again, and the monk put his hand on her shoulder to comfort her, yet kept his gaze on them.
"Yes!!! Ohhh Gods Yes!!!...But I didnt mean it..I..I...please..." Inuyasha replied weakly as he stared at his brother right in the eyes. Sesshoumaru could see his pain, his grief, and his desire to die.
"Bring her back..please?? Brother?" Inuyasha begged.
"You know if I bring her back then she will remember all that had occured, she will remember that it was you that killed her..are you sure you wish me to bring her back brother?..would it not be better that she stay dead than live knowing it was YOU who killed her?" Sesshoumaru asked.
"I dont care!..please just bring her back to me...bring her back and I give my life and Tetsaiga to you Sesshoumaru..anything you want just BRING HER BACK!!" Inuyasha all but wailed in his agony. Sesshoumaru hmphed and walked straight to the hut. Sango and Miroku did not stop him nor did the old Miko.
~~~Once in the hut Sesshoumaru looked at the bodies of Inuyasha's wentch and another. A male. By the looks of the claw marks on thier chests, and the smell, it had been Inuyasha's demon form that had killed them. He was still curious as to why though. What had bought it out this time? His life did not seem in danger. The villagers were nothing but insects to Inuyasha so they were doing him no real harm. He felt Tensaiga pulse at his side, letting him know it was it desire for him to bring her back. He took out his sword, looked at the little soul devouring imps and sliced across the wentches chest. But Tensiaga did not stop pulsing. It wished for him to bring the male to life as well. Not one to disagree with the swords wishes..yet, he did the same and soon saw them breathing. Without a word he left the hut and saw the exterminator and monk go in as well as the old Miko.
"She is alive...so is the male." Sesshoumaru stated lifelessly to his brother.
"Thank Gods.." Inuyasha sighed as he seemed to go boneless and slumped into his bonds. More tears coming from his eyes.
"My price...." Sesshoumaru began, and Inuyasha lifted his head to look at his brother with acceptance and an emotion that looked much like hope. Inuyasha wanted him to kill him. This Sesshoumaru would not do. He liked to see his brother suffer. And he was sure he would now that his wentch was alive again. Everything he had cared for would now turn on him and he would be all alone again. This is how it should be Sesshoumaru thought. His half brother did not deserve anything less he thought.
"My price little brother...is that you tell me why you killed your wentch..but not at this time..I will find you and you will tell me..make sure you keep alive till then little brother..for you owe me now..and I expect you to repay me." Sesshoumaru replied as he dissappeared into the forest. He made sure that his brother did not let someone kill him or kill himself, he wanted his brother to suffer some before he himself took his brothers life. Till then Inuyasha's desire to die would be that. Desire but nothing more, till he made sure to fullfill his payment to him. If anything Sesshoumaru had no doubt about his brothers word. It was the only thing he admired about him, which was not much to say the least.
~~~Inuyasha sighed and slumped back into his binds, but quickly looked up when he heard her, smelled her. His heart leapt with joy and ached with sorrow at the same time. The look on her face was enough to make him wish again for death. Kagome, with blood still on her, her shirt ripped along the chest from his claws, stumbled towards him. Confussion, fear and sorrow was on her face and Inuyasha wished he could take it away from her. He didnt want her to be sad ever, he loved her and he had hurt her, hell he had fuckin killed her. He could see Sango and Miroku trying to hold her back, not wanting her to go near Inuyasha for fear he would hurt her again, but Kaede told them to leave Kagome be, that it was something she needed to do. Kagome stopped before him, pain and sadness in her eyes.
"Why Inuyasha? Please tell me why?? Why did you kill me?" she asked as she cried and tears racked her body.
