Getting to know you - A "Will You Be Mine?" Side story.


By Miztikal-Dragon


Chapter Seven


I know that at this point in time everything seems to be getting a little bumpy, but that’s only and understatement. After the seize of the Western Lands and the death of King InuTashio and Queen Izayoui the castle occupants seemed to have fallen into a kind of slump. There was so much mistrust that there was confusion large enough to smother just about anyone. Now I’m not saying that Sesshomaru wasn’t a good leader, because he was, however, the fallen kingdom wasn’t looking for an iron fist and a slap in the face.


Don’t get me wrong, he did do so much for his people and I’m a hundred percent sure that everyone was thankful to have Sesshomaru as a leader, but sometimes he was just too overbearing. Maybe I’m only telling you this because it was what I personally experienced, but I want to give my thoughts and feelings about what happened a voice. Lets face it, I’m the one telling this story after all and as the evil hypnotists often say, “You are under my control”.


Anyway, back to the actual story telling…


It’s true that InuYasha stuck me in Sesshomaru’s wardrobe, and honestly I’m not sure entirely certain whether or not he knew what he was doing. He was always pretty irrational, but then again the same could be said for his father and brother. Some habits are just hereditary and no matter how hard we try to, we cannot get rid of them.


I could tell you more about what happened to InuYasha after he fled the Western Lands, however, that is a story that has already been told before in a different time and place. Besides, that is something that led to so much more pain and tears that I no longer wish to remember that I had shed. Much of my life has been spent trying to crawl out of an all consuming darkness and after so many failed attempts and only few successes, I feel that that certain time in my life should be lain to rest for good. There are still a lot of things that I have procrastinated in telling you and in due time everything else will unfold itself and you will understand everything.


If you were to ask everyone in the entire universe about their beliefs with love you’d be surprised by how many similar answers there are. There are people who think that life is a great big world that has yet to be discovered, an adventure to be traveled and for them that’s how it might really be like. Others think that its all about the misery, the pain that will never end; a black hole of angst and self loathing. These kinds of people are pessimistic and can only see the rotten parts of a fruit, and then there are those who are somewhere in the middle.


That’s where I stand, not quite happy-go-lucky, and not surrounded by my own dark emotions that toss away any chance of ever being remotely happy for more than a few moments every millennia. I’m a tipsy person by nature, and yes there are some days where I’ll lean more to one side than to the other and then the exact opposite the next. Call it bi-polar if you will, but I simply call it being utterlessly human. It’s all about what we learn from life rather than what we expected it to be and I believe that humanity is what almost caused Sesshomaru to lose everything, well okay I mean the lack of humanity that is.


I will go into further detail about the misgivings I was dealt, about the ultimate heartache and suffering, but I’ll warn you now it’s not going to look pretty. By nature Sesshomaru is and will always be a demon, and an Inu-Youkai at that and nothing could ever change that. A lot of it was his attitude and his need to fix any broken end in his life that a few times it cost the lives of a few good men and here and there on an occasion almost cost him his life as well as my own.


Kaijinbou and the making of Toukijin is the biggest one that I can recall and the one that gave me a first hand glimpse into a figurative betrayal of the heart and ego. There have only been a few times in my life that I can truthfully say that Sesshomaru has let me down, and deep down inside I know that even when forgiven, he could never let himself forget his actions and their consequences. I could count all of these times on my little hand, with a finger or two to spare, but secretly I believe the fact of the matter is that Sesshomaru let them happen in the first place.


Mistakes are all apart of life and yes even I understand that, but I won’t ever be able to forget the look in his eyes the day he received his prize for his bloodlust, or the sting in my heart and body from when Sesshomaru attacked me more than once with the intent to hurt and possibly kill me.


Okay confused yet? Well al of which I’ve said is true, yes, Sesshomaru has tried to kill me before, and in case you’re wondering he hadn’t gone crazy or anything. It’s just that sometimes about once a couple of months or so, Sesshomaru goes a way for a few days, possibly weeks and he tells no one where he goes. He doesn’t leave the castle because it would leave the Western Lands vulnerable, but he disappears and there is not a soul alive who could find him.


Unfortunately for me, once a little while after the entire deal with Kajinbou and Toukijin, the Inu-Youkai was showing signs of his departure. For me that wasn’t a good thing either, once human girl stuck with an entire castle of almost bitter demons and having no one trustworthy enough besides Myoga, and Nazuna (a cat demon who had been known to be quite fickle for a large price). They wouldn’t last a minute or two with the youkai inside and I would literally be fish bait.


So naturally I did the one thing I thought that was possible, I bought seals from a passing monk in the village a few miles down the road, locked my doors and sealed myself inside my room. I had everything I thought I could need and it looked fool proof so why not right? Well lets just say that there were some stowaways in my room, ones that had been exiled from the Eastern Lands not too long before and one of them was a demon.


It was a huge mess and it would have been a scandal with fatal consequences too, but I’m glad that Sesshomaru hadn’t been as anger as he had been. He may not have trusted me as much as he did once, and even refused to be in the same room as me for the longest time, but I understood to a point. It’s not everyday a girl seals herself in her room with a teenage boy and his demon ally. Maybe it wasn’t the brightest idea in the world from a fifteen year old, but then again the scar on my back would always be a constant remind of that day for both Sesshomaru and myself.
