Chapter Four
Sesshomaru sat at his cherry oak desk, papers sprawled out everywhere waiting to be looked through, books that lay open waiting to be read. The feather pen in his hand dipped into a small inkpot before touching parchment and flowing across it like water. It hadn’t taken him long to gently clean the blood from Rin’s head and bandage the little wound. In the morning it would have to be looked over by an actual doctor in case of an infection.
The smell of her blood and the red color that was left on his hands almost made his stomach nauseous, but he was able to overpower the urge to purge the contents of his stomach out into a basin. Blood never before was able to get to him like hers did, and for the most part it still rang true, he just couldn’t stand the smell of her blood. It made him uneasy. Speaking of the girl, currently she was laying fast asleep on his canopy bed. Her black hair curtained around her face and Sesshomaru wanted to smile. Over the last couple of years he had grown so accustomed to seeing Rin’s smiling face that he couldn’t let his day end without seeing her happy face.
At first when he realized it he was angry at himself, how could he be harboring such emotions for a human after everything he’d done to establish his reputation? He had been taught how a regal kind commanded his kingdom by his mother, and he couldn’t forsake her. Sure his mother’s teachings went against his father’s living style, but he wanted to establish himself as someone better than his father. There were a lot of things in his life growing up that were contradictions and sometimes even hypocritical, but he would always end up siding with the one that seemed more logical, the one that was easier for him to control.
Letting out an exasperated sigh, Sesshomaru rubbed the bridge of his nose, he hadn’t let it on to anyone, but he no longer really wanted to marry Kagura. The wind witch had a mile long trail of drama following her and it frustrated him to no end. On more than a few occasions he had wanted to strangle her just to get a moments peace, the she demon never stopped bitching about one thing or another. It was true that she would bare him extraordinary pups, but he often found himself asking why was it worth it? He didn’t want kids and he knew that if Kagura raised them (oh yeah like she would want to be stabbed with a fork in the eye) one day one of them would surely slit his throat to gain reign over his kingdom. He wasn’t stupid and he knew that his soon to be wife would have to be watched, she wasn’t the type of demon that radiated “trustworthy.” Chastising himself, Sesshomaru continued his work, he may have not trusted Kagura, but there was something in him that felt for the wind witch.
His claws tapped against the desk as his eyes narrowed, these feelings he felt made him feel weak and he hated it. He wanted to growl angrily and let his claws tear something apart until it was nothing, yet none of these emotions showed on his face. The candle off to his side flickered and a rustling sound caught his attention. Glancing over to his bed, Sesshomaru watched the young human turn over onto her side, her hands fisting into the blankets. Rin had always been a heavy sleeper, and for the human girl it was both a good and bad trait.
Finding that his attention from his work was stolen quickly by the human girl, Sesshomaru laid down his feather pen and rose to his feet. It was about time that he checked on her and changed her bandages anyway. A part of his mind urged the Inu-Youkai to get rid of Rin before things could get any worse, but another part couldn’t allow himself to do it. Things were always conflicting in his mind when it came to Rin and he hoped that it would be a different story after his marriage to Kagura. Grabbing fresh linen from his night stand and sitting down, he dipped it into the now cool water being sure to gently take off Rin’s bandages.
A lump grew in his throat as he cleaned off the dried blood and the sleeping girl moaned. Brushing it off at first, he worried on his lower lip, he was supposed to be better than this! How could this small fragile girl invoke such things in him? He didn’t pity her, he wasn’t ashamed, or anything else remotely negative, but he couldn’t explain it either. The smell of salt brought Sesshomaru from his thoughts and he was immediately captured by a pair of teary brown eyes. He blanched at the sight in front of him and he was lost for words. Was she crying because he hadn’t been gentle enough and hurt her? Or maybe upset because of something else he did or didn’t do? His heart started racing as a few tears slipped down pale cheeks.
“S-Sesshomaru,” her voice was scratchy and a little raw. “Are you going to kill me?”
Her words took him off guard and his amber eyes widened before narrowing. Had she not listened to a word he said earlier? Wanting to roll his eyes or cover his face with his claws, Sesshomaru brushed the wetness from Rin’s face instead. She always thought of the most ridiculous sounding things when she believed she was in trouble. Her deep brown orbs followed his every movement as he readied her head, he didn’t answer her question and he wasn’t planning n doing so either. After a few minutes of deafening silence, Rin’s nerves had calmed and her anxiety gone away almost completely. He wasn’t sure if she realized that she was in his room and not the infirmary, but he suspected she did by the way her fingers trembled holding onto the blankets covering her.
“I will go fetch a doctor in the morning for you,” he said coldly. “But get some rest, you’ve had a rather rough day I’m sure.”
She only nodded, her eyes never leaving his. It was a little awkward for Sesshomaru, but then again he kind of expected it from Rin. The fifteen year old was curious by nature, but she hadn’t been a lone with him in a few years and he was sure that it frightened her if even a little. Closing his eyes momentarily, Sesshomaru stood up from his seat next to the human girl only to almost yelp as something tugged roughly on his long hair. Her movement had surprised him and looking down at Rin, Sesshomaru saw a lock of his hair being held tightly by the human girl.
“Stay please,” Rin begged in a small voice. “Please stay by me until I fall back asleep Sesshomaru. I’m scared.”
Resisting the urge to scoff and say there was nothing to be scared of, the Inu-Youkai sat back down next to Rin and sighed. He wasn’t about to refuse to stay by her side and protect her, he couldn’t. Rin released her vice grip on his hair and relaxed, laying her head on Sesshomaru’s shoulder. Her actions made him nervous and irritated at first, but after a while he let a small smile come to his lips. Rin had fallen asleep almost instantly and he couldn’t’ help himself as he petted the top of her head with his claws.
The Inu-Youkai prince almost felt at peace with himself as he watched a sleeping Rin. Innocence, it was the first thing that popped into his head when he thought of her, and loyalty was the second. Morning would come in a few hours and he had many things to do once the sun rose, but at the moment all his duties and thoughts of working flew out the window. This was one of the few chances he had in a couple of months to relax and he wanted to take advantage of it. It didn’t take long for the Inu-Youkai to fall asleep himself with Rin laying protected on his chest, his arms wrapped gently around the girl.
A beautiful sight that would have brought a painful death to anyone if seen. However, red eyes that watched from the slightly opened doors were furious. Tearing her eyes from the scene, Kagura stormed silently down the hallway to her own bed chambers. The human girl some how always got in her way and plans would have to be pushed forward. Kagura was not one to be known as a gracious loser and even knowing that it may as well lead to her own death, she would get what she wanted.
Pulling a feather from her bun, Kagura whispered to it before throwing out into the open. The feather expanded and grew in size as it flew away, it would bring forth everything that would bring the demise of the Western Lands. Kagura laughed closing her window and going to her bed, the destruction of the Western Lands and the death of that human girl would be her wedding present to Sesshomaru.
Rin sat on the edge of her bed patiently waiting for the doctor to show. A few days passed by without a hitch and she had been glad to know that neither InuTashio or Izayoui were upset with her. InuYasha had explained everything and the now human boy was reprimanded for both his actions and the fact that he put Rin in a lot of danger. She had felt better that everything was going back to normal, but Rin became withdrawn. There wasn’t a reason for in the beginning, but everyone understood. The four year anniversary of her parent’s death had always made Rin quiet, she was sure to give hi a day of silence and a small bouquet of flowers to their gravesites by the forest.
People always noticed including Sesshomaru and yet they left her alone, it was a sign of respect to Rin and her parents memory. Speaking of Sesshomaru, he had stayed true to his words appointing a doctor to look at her head wound. The old smile smiled checking up Rin, his old ramblings lighting up her dampening mood. However, the doctor she was currently waiting for was not the same old man who she had before. Sesshomaru had been in meetings all day long and could not summon the doctor so someone else had been put in charge of doing it instead.
Apprehension and nervousness surrounded her and she chewed on her lower lip. Tonight was the night of the new moon and something in the pit of her stomach made her want to vomit. She could feel something in the air that made her want to hide until Sesshomaru would back back like he said he would. Izayoui had told Inuyasha to keep Rin company for a while, but the young prince had gone missing again and nobody could find him. Something was defiantly up but nobody noticed it but her. Loud knocking at her door brought Rin from her thoughts and glancing up as one of the maids entered the room, Rin smiled. The doctor was finally here to examine her.
The maid was a beautiful horse demon with long metallic red hair placed up in a bun. Rin loved the woman’s deep turquoise eyes and she wanted to hug the horse youkai.
“Tae!” She was followed in by a young man an Rin’s cheeks flushed thinking that he was her doctor. “H-How’s Kenichi doing? I haven’t seen him around lately.”
The horse youkai’s smile grew tenfold closing the door behind the doctor who now was carrying a large leather bas as if it was nothing. Kenichi was Tae’s husband, one of the few other horse youkai in the Western Lands. He was one of the army generals, not to mention the only youkai that could spout off to Sesshomaru besides his father, not that he did it on a daily basis. The two youkai had been married the year before and news before InuYasha’s accident was that Tae was with child.
“Very busy my lady,” Tae replied sincerely. “He had been with Sesshomaru all day in those meetings of his so I haven’t seen him in a while either.”
Clearing his throat rather loudly, the young doctor smiled shyly having interrupted the two girls. Rin’s cheeks heated again and she apologized as Tae left the room. It was obvious that the doctor had other things to do and Rin didn’t want to keep him any longer than necessary. He looked like he was in his mid or early twenties and his onyx hair was tied up in a high pony tail. The animal fur on his haori looked alike a vest and made Rin frown. It was summer time and pretty warm outside so why did he need to keep warm?
“Um sir?” She wanted to ask about it as he turned to face her.
“Please,” he said handing her a cup and instructing her to drink it. “Call me Suikotsu.”
His black eyes were gentle and taking a sip from the small cup she found herself liking the young doctor. The liquid was bitter, but she drank all of it, her stomach feeling suddenly warmer than when drinking a little sake at celebrations. She wanted to gag at the taste but she was able to keep a straight face and hand the empty cup back to the doctor who turned his back to her to put the cup away into his bag.
“What was that medicine for?” Rin queried curiously.
Harsh laughter set alarms off in her head and glancing over at the doctor, she almost screamed. He no longer looked like the same man, his hair was everywhere above his head in spikes and his eyes looked deadly. Green striped adorned his face and on his hand was a glove with five knives on the fingers. Her eyes were wide with horror and she was barely able to dodge the doctor as he lunged at her, his clawed hand of death looking to rip her open.
Blood dripped from her shoulder, she hadn’t felt the blades pierce her skin, but the evidence was as clear as day. Whoever this man was, he certainly wasn’t a doctor! Seeing his eyes lock onto hers, Rin darted for the door, hoping that she could get to some place where help would be. Rin screamed blood murder as the doctor named Suikotsu blocked her exit, his weapon drawn and waiting to be used again. There was no way out. Charging her like an animal, Suikotsu smiled, when the Calvary came, the girl would already be dead.
“Don’t you dare touch her!” Out of nowhere came a flash of silver and Suikotsu’s weapon and hand was ripped from his arm to the wrist bone.
Rin didn’t have time to think as her hand was grabbed and she was dragged out of the room. InuYasha had been hiding in her room the entire time and now the two of them were running for their very lives.
Walking down the hall, blood stained a once beautiful yellow kimono. A sword was thrown lazily over a shoulder and dark red painted lips curved into a victorious smile. It always felt good to kill the weak and the pieces of flesh left behind proved it. Green eyes twinkled with mirth as pale fingers twirled a set of keys. It hadn’t been hard at all to sneak inside the castle as a concubine and now he was going to reap the benefits.
A certain lord hadn’t followed orders and now the feminine looking man was on the hunt to finish the job and then some. The guards in charge of watching the prisoners were all dead, their blood covering the cemented floors, their body parts littering the ground. It was all in a night’s work, with his pleasure there would be the pain of another, Jakostu was never a man to be easily pleased.
Coming up on the cells, Jakotsu could plainly see the lord that was sent to the Western Lands to kill a half-breed, but instead gotten himself arrested. Lavender eyes stared at the approaching human and Ryouji growled, he already knew what was going to happen.
“By the power vested in me by the Northern Kingdom, I now pronounce you dead and cursed to the very depths of hell!”
“J-Jak-” The said man’s blade swung and the sound of flesh ripping and bones’ being sliced cleanly through was the last thing heard.
Blood splashed onto pale skin and Jakotsu licked some that landed on his lips, it was rewarding. Shoulder his weapon, he turned his back on the now dead Lord Ryouji, his body always reacted positively to the slaughter of a cute human or youkai and the hardness hidden by his kimono made Jakotsu giggle.
“It’s a good thing you’re dead Ryouji,” Jakotsu said seriously. “Because Bankotsu would have killed you for staining my beautiful kimono with your blood.”
E/N: Yar that's the chapter for you folks! I'm starting work today so I dunno when the next time I'll feel up to updating. I've actually almost finished the next chapter to this story, but I'm lacking any real motivation to do anything lately in all my stories. Aff is still down and my boss hasnt' called me to give me my schedule, or my uniform. Grawr and I haven't even started yet! Please donate to the starving authoress' fund and leave me a review, I'd greatly appreciate it!
