InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Forges of Love ❯ Tensei ( Chapter 1 )

“…I finished the sword as you ask, master” Totosai said offering up the blade.

“Ah yes, It's beautiful, Totosai, you've out done yourself this time, all it needs now is a name…” Inutaisho replied examining his new sword.

“…Hmmm…how about `the coffin cheater' that's my personal favorite…” Totosai shrugged, digging in his ear for lint. Inutaisho then glanced down at the young child sitting at the old demon's side. Her lovely amethyst eyes glared down into her lap, her hair a bushy copper. Her skin dark and kimono soot covered.

“How about `Tenseiga', you would like that wouldn't you?” Inutaisho smiled ruffling her hair. The child couldn't hold back her giggle.

Sessho-maru trekked deeply into the forest, searching out the scents of Rin and Jaken, it was difficult since they weren't that far from Totosai's forge. The whole region smelled of smoke and brimstone. He hated this place, it reminded him to much of her...

"...Please stop...Leave me alone, I'm begging you..."

Sessho-maru's ears perked up.

"Heh, heh, heh, that's real sweet that voice..." one bandit laughed.

"Now give us all your money and I promise it won't hurt...that much..."

"I have no money..." the girl murmured softly, her face hidden by the hood of her cloak.

"Heh...well then, we'll just have to find some other way for you to pay us..."

"...Please don't...if you bother with me something very bad will happen to you..." she whispered softly.

"What did you say?!"

There was a rustling in the trees, the girl gave a fearful look.

"...What the hell was that..."

Sessho-maru stepped into the clearing, his cold golden eyes became trained on the men.

"...I...It's a demon!!!!!"

"Damn that evil wench! She summoned a demon!"

With that they took off.

'...nothing but pathetic human cowards...'

"You, girl, you should be more careful..." he said turning to leave. The girl lowered her head.

"...I know it's been a long time but...have you truly forgotten my scent..."

Sessho-maru turned back to glare at her, the girl pushed the hood off of her head. Sessho-maru's eyes when wide. The girl's amethyst bore into his golden ones, he bushy auburn hair fell about her shoulders, framing her face.

"...Tensei..." he murmured.

"Sessh-kun..." she smiled. Suddenly there was a great burst of miasma, when the air cleared, Naraku was standing right behind her. Sessho-maru growled, his hand going to the Tokijin.

"Tensei, you never mentioned you were aquanted with the lord Sessho-maru..." he smirked. Tensei said nothing, Naraku's smirk widened, his arm wrapping around her waist, his lips at her neck, she blushed ashamedly. Sessho-maru's growl deepened, "Take your filthy hands off of her..."

"And why should I? She technically belongs to me, after all"

There was another strong burst of miasma as the two took to the skies, Tensei looked back at Sessho-maru, tears glistening in her eyes.

'...I'm sorry...Sessh-kun..'
