Disclaimer:

Turtlequeen2: Thanks lily_pod16 for the awesome review! I appreciate everyone’s support!

Inuyasha: What’s this about this time?

Turtlequeen2: Glad you asked. It’s a sad one about Sango, Kohaku, and the dreadful things in their lives.

Inuyasha: Keh! At least it’s not about my brother.

Sesshoumaru: What are you inferring brother?

Inuyasha: That I don’t give a damn about you!

Sesshoumaru: The feeling is mutual.

Turtlequeen2: Aww…look at the brotherly love…

Inuyasha & Sesshoumaru: O.O What?!

Turtlequeen2: At least you two shut up. This is my perception of what Inuyasha’s thinking. I do not own Inuyasha, but I do own these poems! Rumiko Takahashi still owns him…*sigh*

Sango and Kohaku’s Suffering

I had assumed that I was the only one that Naraku had tricked

I was wrong

Miroku had been cursed by him

Sango had to watch as her brother controlled by Naraku,

Killed her comrades and family

As part of Naraku’s amusement

Sango is tormented by her memories

At night, I hear her cry out for them and Kohaku

She relives the dreadful night that had changed her life forever

Kohaku trying to kill her and her family

With his own hands

Sango watched as the lord with them,

Commanded that they both be killed

The arrows piercing through Kohaku and herself

She was nearly killed

But Kohaku was dead

She was there when he died

Naraku then tricked her after coming after me

He made her think that I was the monster

Who killed the rest of her comrades in the village

But after realizing that Naraku was the enemy

She decided to become part of our team

We thought that Kohaku was dead

We were wrong

Naraku brought him back to life

With the use of a shikon Jewel fragment

Kohaku has no memories of what he has done

He is now a slave of Naraku

Forced to kill without knowing his own self

A little of him dies

With every innocent life he claims

All because of Naraku’s sick mind

How I hate that bastard!

How Kohaku progressed

He can call Sango his Ane-ne

Slowly he can collect the memories he had

But will he want to know?

How he killed his own comrades

How he almost killed his own sister time and time again

Against his own will

To be under one’s control

I have realized that Sango has been through

Much more than I

I haven’t seen my own family slaughtered before my eyes

By one I loved under one’s control

Sango is a strong woman

To go through so much

And still want to live and fight

She wants to avenge her villagers and her brother

Therefore, she must kill Naraku

As badly as I feel I need to

Just as I feel the urge to be with Kikyo when she is near

Sango has the same urge with seeing Kohaku

Sometimes this acts as her weakness

Seeing her only bloodline watching her

Can enable enemies to attack without warning

It doesn’t stop her

She keeps on fighting

She wears her heart on her sleeve

But in battle, she is sturdy and brave

She will save her brother

I’ll make sure of that

We will find some way for her brother to live

When the Jewel needs to be complete

Many times she has seen her brother do things

That are against tajiya beliefs

She was to turn her back on him

But she didn’t

Her heart is too stubborn

To not love her brother

She knows that he has no recollection

Of his life before Naraku

He knows not the impact of his own actions

Against his sister

She still wants to save Kohaku

I would have gave up long ago

I almost gave up

She never did

Her brother keeps her going

Sango still suffers from scars of the aftermath

She still suffers from Kohaku’s lack of memory of her and the village

She still suffers from nightmares

But she still has the monk to comfort her

Miroku often calms her

They talk about how they will get Kohaku back

He makes her think of other things

Like his lechery or his love for her

Sango has at least him and Kirara left

She may have a bad past

But with Naraku’s death on the horizon

We will make sure that she has an enjoyable future ahead of her
