Destinies Collide

Chapter 7: Enter Sesshomaru

A bright light shone through the cracks in the window casting a pale light in the darkened room. InuYasha grunted and shifted in his bed, turning towards the wall. He slept for a few more minutes before he tore his eyes open and stared at the plain wall beside him.

"How did I get back to my room?" he asked himself as he flopped onto his back and stared at the ceiling.

"You walked in here late last night and went straight to bed."

"Huh?" InuYasha sat up and turned toward the voice. "Myoga, don't do that. Wait a minute, you saw me walk in here last night?"

"Sorry and um, yes. You were rather irritated, so I decided not to bother you."

"Gee thanks." InuYasha got off his bed. Standing up slowly, he stretched his arms over his head. He then sat back on the bed and rubbed his eyes with his hands. A full-blown image from the night before came racing into his mind. That girl, Kikyo, had they done the unspeakable? Had he claimed her? "Oh god, please tell me I didn't do what I think I did." As he said that he fell back on the bed with a plop.

"I don't know what you think you did. However, I can say that you did not choose a mate. Your father isn't very happy with you right now."

"Look flea, that's the least of my worries. But that does make me feel a little better. I still don't know what happened last night though. Hey Myoga, you said something yesterday about me being connected to someone."

"Uh…. Yes, I did."

"Well, spill it."

"I don't feel like divulging my secrets because of the way you acted yesterday."

InuYasha's left eye began twitching. He sat up and grabbed the flea. Wrapping his hand firmly around his retainer, InuYasha shook Myoga violently for a few minutes. InuYasha threw Myoga across the room. "Now, what were you saying about not telling me anything?"

Myoga was seeing stars as he floated to the floor. `I should learn to keep my big mouth shut.' He hopped over to InuYasha's bed and perched on headboard. "May I ask why you are suddenly interested in hearing this so called fairy tale?"

InuYasha glanced over to the flea for a moment. He couldn't decide whether he should tell Myoga what had happened last night or not. Finally, he fell back on the bed and returned his gaze to the ceiling. "Let's just say that something happened last night. Don't even think about asking me what happened, because I can't answer that."

"Oh? Now this is quite unexpected."

InuYasha shot up and brought his face mere inches away from Myoga. "Don't you dare tell me that you expected something to happen?"

Myoga flinched, but kept his gaze steady on his master. "Not this early, but sooner or later."

Myoga didn't have time tot think before InuYasha grabbed him. InuYasha sat back on the bed. Myoga was conveniently pinned between the claws on InuYasha's thump and forefinger. He brought the flea up to eye level. "Start talking, old man. You better not skip anything either," InuYasha growled.

Myoga gulped. "Y…. yes, sire. You see it all started around five hundred years ago. Two demons fell in love, and… well… you know, they mated." He said the last slightly embarrassed.

InuYasha growled warningly. "Myoga!"

"Sire, this is necessary for you to see where you fit into this story."

"If you start telling me about my parents and how I came to be, I swear it will be the last words you ever speak."

Myoga looked a little worried, but quickly shrugged it off. "This has nothing to do with your parents. Although the fact that they conceived you did help the process."

"Myoga!" InuYasha accentuated his threat by squeezing the flea tighter.

"I'm sorry my lord. I shall get on with the story."

"Much better."

"Ok, you know that if you mate with your soul mate, that your soul combines with hers and vise versa?"

InuYasha shook his head yes.

"Well, that's what happened five hundred year ago. However, tragedy struck the young couple early on in their lives. As the woman lay on her deathbed, her mate gave her his sullen oath that her killer would not get away with what he had done. If he failed or succeeded, he vowed to find her in the next life, so that they could continue with what had been cut short. Just before she died, she told him of a foolproof way that they would never be apart again. Using the last of her energy, she surrounded both of them with her power. She then asked him to do the same with his power. He did as asked and she rewarded him with a long deep passionate kiss. While she distracted him, she released a part of her soul. It entered him through his mouth and she begged forth a part of his soul. His soul entered her in the same manner. After that, she fell back and explained to him what she had done.

She had combined their powers and souls. In this manner, she took control over their destinies. Their souls would be attracted to each other. This would almost guarantee that they would find each other again. However, if they should fail in completing their life together, the cycle would continue until such time that the oath is fulfilled."

"Myoga, this is all very interesting, but could we jump ahead five hundred years? What does all this have to do with me?"

"You told me not to leave anything out. Didn't you?"

InuYasha just growled in irritation.

"You see everyone is reincarnated. You happen to have a soul that has a mission to complete. When the mates from my story died, their souls were reincarnated into other bodies. The souls simply transferred everything that had happened from one body to the next. This would include the mating, marking, the mix of powers, the combining of the souls, and the oath. This is where it gets complicated. The souls must find each other again and do everything from the previous life. This includes mating, marking, and rejoining your souls. Right now, your soul is in turmoil. It has been too long since it was reunited with its other half."

"Are you trying to tell me that in addition to my soul, I also have part of some female in me?"

"Y…. yes my lord."

"Are you sure that you didn't hurt your head or something?"

"Last night, as you strolled into your room, you smelled heavily of a female. A very strong and powerful female, might I add. However, one thing puzzled me. Upon closer inspection of your neck, I came to the conclusion that she didn't mark you. That is why I supposed that you did not take a mate last night. Besides, you didn't smell like sex."

InuYasha growled and flung the flea across the room again. "What would you know? I didn't smell like sex? What the hell is that supposed to mean?"

Myoga stood up but didn't move from his spot across the room from his irate master. "Um…. Did I mention that you looked different last night as well?"

"No, I guess you conveniently left that part out."

"Well…. Uh….. Your eyes were a deep blue and you walked like a female."

"Nani?" InuYasha screamed."

It was a beautiful day. The sun was shinning brightly in the sky and only a trace of clouds drifted by. There was a light breeze that gently swayed the trees and flowers in the castle garden. A tall figure exited the main house and silently walked through the garden.

His features gave away no emotion. His long silver hair swayed in the wind with each step he took. He came to a stop in the middle of the garden and looked around. His eyes came to rest on a toad like creature. Turning his head slightly, he stared at the little creature for a moment before speaking.

"Jaken, what did you learn?"

Jaken turned around and jumped up. He ran over to his master and bowed down. "My lord, your brother took a disgusting human…."

Sesshomaru grabbed Jaken by the neck and brought him to eye level. His voice remained quiet and his face emotionless as he said, "What did I tell you about associating me with that worthless being?"

"Yes, my lord. I'm sorry. Please forgive me," Jaken groveled

Sesshomaru dropped Jaken and crossed his arms over his chest. "As you were saying?"

Jaken got up quickly. "Yes, my lord. He took a disgusting human into the woods last night. When he came out, he not only smelled like a girl, but he walked like one as well. If you ask me, I believe he mated with her. But then again you didn't ask me. So I was just saying that if it had been me, but it wasn't me it was InuYasha….."

"Jaken?"

"Y…. Yes, my lord?"

"Where is Rin?"

"The last time I saw her, she was doing as you asked of her. Cleaning your room, if I recall correctly."

"She should have been finished by now. How long ago was that?"

"Um…. About thirty minutes sire."

Sesshomaru turned around and walked towards a house on the other end of the garden. Jaken stared after him for a moment before he ran to catch up, silently falling into step behind his master.
