~Hoshi no Hikari~ Revenge


Rin's fifteenth birthday was today, a day that she was expecting to be filled with surprises and laughter alongside her few friends and her cherished lord. Rin was proud of the woman she had become, certainly she was attractive with her smooth, long straight brown hair with curls at its ends that reached her thighs. Her mesmerising big brown eyes that reflected her  innocent heart and happiness. While every village men felt pleasure just by admiring such allure, these traits had proved to be her demise as every girl in the village envied this naive girl for her beauty, clothing that could make every Hime in Japan drown in jealousy and most of all that kind heart.

Now there she lay accused of crimes that her mind could not comprehend, her hands were tied from behind to a pole in the middle of the village. Blood kept flowing down her body staining her shredded kimono and garnishing her battered petite figure.

She was crying silently as tears kept pouring down her bruised cheeks, her eyes stung due to the smoke of the fire, that was agravating her already puffy eyes. Each ragged breath feeling as if knives were potruding through her lungs exalting her previous pleading cries for her savior.

In front of the girl was one of the village men ,"Hey Rin! Why don't you keep calling your demon lord? HAHAHA!  Who knows maybe he will come to save you!" The village man kept looking at Rin with contempt in his eyes and behind him, the rest of the villagers started to laugh celebrating the pain and humiliation of the young girl.

"Fushoujiki", Onryô one of the village men said, "untie her and bring her forward, the fire is already powerful enough or if our little witch is ready to confess for her crime..."

Rin inhaled and with much effort managed to open her bloody lips and said almost faintly " I d- din't do it... I didn't kill Kaede, I am not a WITCH!", thus inciting the already enraged villagers.

Fushoujiki untied Rin, supported her up and closing the gap within them whispered to her ear , " Rin, you could have avoided this fate if you had answered yes to my marriage proposal, but you had to be in love with that... demon... now you are going to suffer", he lifted his knee in a fast enough motion through Rin's stomach. Rin fell to the floor gasping for air , wincing in pain and silently crying.  

Fushoujiki got a hold of her already broken hands and started dragging her to the wooden panels near the fire. Surely, she had done nothing to deserve this she thought. This day had started like any other day, so why did it turn out into this nightmare?

~HNH~
Inuyasha and Kagome went with their son Akihiko to the market which was a 3 days travel in search of rice, potatoes and meat for the approaching winter. Sango and Miroku had been gone for a week  with the twins and  son in order to get them used to the forest and later on they would help Inuyasha and Kagome with the things. Shippo was traveling for his training and would reunite with the gang in the market. I had stayed to take care of Kaede because lately she had been having an acute chest pain and Kagome had feared that it was her heart.

The morning had started with the same routine, I was following Kaede to Inuyasha's Forest in search of medicinal herbs. When we were picking the herbs suddenly Kaede put her hands on her chest and fell to the ground. "Kaede, are you all right!?", Kaede then answered " Yes... It happens every time", "Rin, If something were to happen to me I want you to be strong, I won't be there to protect you from the villagers anymore". "Kaede, nothing is going to happen to you", I said reassuringly.

Then we kept picking herbs when we finished, I was carrying the basket filled with herbs and supporting Kaede by the shoulders back to the village. Back in the village Fushoujiki was looking at me with anger in his eyes because I had rejected his marriage proposal. The rest of the villagers had their eyes fixed on Kaede showing concern and switching their gazes at me with disdain firing in their eyes.

They didn't like me because I was often visited by Lord Sesshomaru and everytime he came to see me, he would bring an extravagant gift. The people in the village would often call me names like the "Demon Whore", but I didn't want Lord Sesshomaru to know. He  came for me every winter and this winter wasn't going to be different, I was going to spent it with him in his castle on the Western lands.

That is when my nightmare started, unexpectedly Kaede let out a scream of pain and fell on the ground, "KAEDE!!", I was screaming, what was happening? Kaede was trembling on the ground, looking at me with tears on her eyes. I quickly knelt beside her and touched her face, "Kaede, what's wrong?". Kaede closed her eyes and tears ran down her cheeks. By that time I had lost control of my emotions, "KAEDE!!!!".

Instantly the villagers started surrounding Kaede and Fushoujiki put his hands on Kaede's neck. With a sullen look he said, " Kaede's dead".

"WITCH!",  Onryô started screaming referring to me and in chorus the rest of the villagers started chanting, "WITCH!", "BURN", "DIE!".  One of the village girls walked up front silencing the chant and looked at me, " You killed Kaede, in order to go back to your DEMON!".

That is when the angered villagers came running towards me and started kicking me, some threw rocks at me. When I fell on the ground I heard a disturbing "CRACK" sound and there it was that instant pain in my right arm. It started getting painful to breathe, it felt as if the edge of a sword was piercing my skin. The pain was too much to bear not only I was suffering from Kaede's death but also from physical pain.

The village leader stopped the villagers by saying, " People stop!, I had allowed Inuyasha in this village because he helps our Miko Kagome and he still has human blood on him BUT this girl is obviously possessed by that DEMON and has killed our Miko Kaede!"

Fushoujiki suggested, " In vengeance we should burn this witch who in unison with that wretched demon  has killed Kaede!"

The villagers dragged me from my broken arm and tied me to a pole in the middle of the village while they prayed for Kaede's soul and later on burned her body. The villagers were looking at me as if they were watching a prey.

One of them threw a stone at me, others followed but Onryô said, " Let us not kill her yet, she should be punished severely for this offense! Let us punish her and burn her at night!"
One villager screamed, "YEAH, we should let her feel the same suffering she has inflicted on Kaede!"
The villagers kept hitting and kicking me, it was so painful but nothing was worst than when they made fun of my pleading cries, "LORD SESSHOMARU!!!", laughter and more laughter that is all that I could hear.  After they got tired of watching me suffer, they left in order to prepare for my awaiting torture.

It was already setting dusk and I was woken up by possibly the only friend I had apart of Inuyasha and the gang. Shiawase was looking at me with sadness in her eyes, with a shivering hand she touched my face and said, "Rin, I am going to find help, You will live I promise". She stealthily moved away from me and looked around to see if anyone was watching. Then disappeared into the forest.
~HNH~


Running, gasping greedily for air, screaming " HEELP!!",  Shiawase was searching frantically for any aid for her dear friend. It was already night and Shiawase could already feel her legs going numb due to all the non stop running, but she was not going to give up. Keeping up in her wild search she stumbles upon one of the multiple branches in the forest <SMASH!>, Shiawase falls abruptly to the ground.

Lord Sesshomaru was walking in a somewhat hurried pace towards the village of his lowly half brother  where his precious Rin was. Ah-Un and Jaken were trying to keep up, "Lord Sesshomaru , wait for me!". The voice of Jaken could be heard from behind the indomitable lord whose composure was beginning to lessen due to the continuing shrieks from his vassal to his sensitive ears.  However another discerning piercing screech from not far had caught the attention of the stoic demon. Sesshomaru follows the direction of the noisy disturbance only to find a girl similar to Rin's age on the ground.


When  Shiawase manages to look up, her eyes catch a tall figure with long silver hair but the pair of golden orbs traps her attention.

What had caught his alertness was that she was coming from the direction of his Rin's village. "Really this ragged girl screams are as irritating as Jaken's", thought the already annoyed demon lord upon examining the ragged girl who had the revolting smell of fire , as if she had been running from a fire. "What could have happened in his Rin's  village?".

"HELP M-MY FRIEND!!!!", Shiawase pleads with the ethereal yet intimidating figure. "Stupid girl, LORD SESSHOMARU doesn't have time to help silly humans!", says Jaken who was already in front of Sesshomaru. "Lo-rd Sessho...maru", the girl says in a faint voice and gasps with realization. The demon lord with no desire to help this girl who thought that could give him commands makes a move to keep going, but is suddenly halted. "W-WAIT!!, THE V-VILLAGE!!, They are going to kill RIN!!".

Sesshomaru's eyes were filled with a hint of worry which nobody else noticed but he didn't wait to listen for the rest of the story, in an inhuman fast pace he went down towards the wretched village. Jaken who had no time to process the alarming news, only managed to see the bottom of a black shoe that pressed him down to the ground in an abrupt yet quickly manner, leaving the youkai in deep unconsciousness.  Ah-Un strolls towards the blacked out youkai on the ground.

"I will tear apart anyone who hurts My RIN...", thought the demon lord whose eyes were fully bright crimson dripping  with murderous intent and claws were damp with poison.



Rin was tied down to a stake in a wooden panel in front of the fire, the agonizing pain was too much for her beaten body and it was eradicating her hopes for survival. Rin was looking up at the starry night that looked blurry because of her tears.

Until suddenly a silver silhouette came into view contrasting the pitch black sky and glimmering stars. "Lor-d Ses-shoma-ru", said with a weak smile looking to the figure up in the sky. Everything became black after that and she could only listen to distant muffled screams and then utter silence.

Fushoujiki wanted to look at Rin one last time before throwing her at the fire, he was starring and studying her defeated body with an amused smiled until he saw Rin looking up at the sky and whispering something. Fushoujiki's smile swiftly disappeared and his face portrayed dread and absolute fear as he saw the fast approaching outraged demon. Onryô came running towards Fushoujiki, "Fushoujiki!! that demon is going to kill us all!", said Onryô with an agitated voice.

"Urusai baka!, we are not dying we must escape NOW!", said Fushoujiki. Onryô and Fushoujiki ran behind the fire and escaped towards the forest.


The villagers were screaming, most of them trying to escape running in opposite directions, however others were feeling brave enough to confront the crimson eye demon.


Sesshomaru with one swip of his poison claw rapidly killed one peasant that was threatening him. Afterwards he overcame a group of foolish villagers with his poison whip the sound of cracking bones was the only noise heard of those peasants who had dared to defy him.


The rest of the villagers were suddenly petrified, silently gawking for a few seconds with utter horror at the macabre scene with their mouths open. Then one of the villagers broke the silence with a piercing scream thus causing the rest of the village to ran away in terror praying for their lives, but Sesshomaru was only thinking of saving Rin paying no mind to the running peasants.

Sesshomaru now in front of Rin had lost his stoic facade and his eyes were reflecting concern, thus with the utmost care he untied and carried her bridal style. Sesshomaru  being careful not to harm the unconscious Rin went flying in the sky, leaving the village in complete uproar.



Onryô and Fushoujiki arrived running to a clearing in the forest and fell kneeling to the ground shivering. "Fushoujiki , we were lucky to be alive, I thought you said that this plan would work!".

Fushoujiki then stood up breathing heavily and starring harshly at Onryô ,"Baka! we are still alive and the plan did work... for the most part ,we simply miscalculated one detail but no worries everything will work out", answered Fushoujiki in a wicked tone.
