Chapter 20




Saving the Wicked for an Innocent Mind



"What do you want with me?" Kagura asked aggressively.
"Don't play dumb, you know what I came for" Kouga replied.

"You have your revenge, Naraku is dead"

"I didn't kill him! It doesn't matter anyways, cause in the end, it's your hands that are covered in my tribe's blood!"
There was silence after that. She looked up to him, leaning slightly on the tree, trying to stand up all the way.
"Your right... I killed them, but I had no choice! As long as Naraku was alive, I had no freedom, I-"

"Don't give me that crap! You enjoyed it, I could tell by that disgusting look of satisfaction on you face!" Kouga spat, cutting her off.

She looked down so her bangs were covering her eyes. She smirked slightly, she remembered that day very well. That was the first blood she ever drew...

"That's the look... You disgust me. It's time for you to die" he said as he walked up to her. He took his clawed hand and pushed her wounded stomach up the tree slightly, causing her to gag in pain. His other hand wrapped around her neck, his claws digging into her throat. Her vision went slightly blurry as she dropped her fan. Her eyes went from her weapon out of reach to Kouga's eyes. The pain he was causing her was to much to bare.

'Is this where it ends? Killed by a wolf? I can't die! Not when I finally have my freedom!' She thought to herself as she tried to think of a way out of this situation. She sighed as her body began to grow limp. She could feel that feeling of death creep up on her again. She thought she was dead for sure this time.

She could hear something, but she couldn't tell what it was. All the sudden, Kouga let go of her and she dropped to the ground. She inhaled deeply as she tried to focus her eyes and ears. She looked up to see a blurry vision of Kouga's back, he was talking to someone. She could just barely make them out, her eyes widened as she saw who he was talking to. Then they moved out of her sight. Her vision and hearing were back to normal moments after that. Though now she couldn't even lean on the tree to try and stand. Her hand went to her stomach, feeling the sharp pain there. She felt the blood leak onto her hand and held out her bloody fingers in front of her face.

'What's going on?' she thought to herself as she looked around and caught a glimpse of Kouga's form leaving. She knew HE was still here. She didn't understand why he was here. Maybe he wanted to kill her and made Kouga back off. She smirked as she turned to glimpse at the one who saved her as she chuckled with slight pain.

"Tell me something... Why are you here? Have you come to kill me yourself?" Kagura asked with a smirk on her face.

"I have no need to kill you"

"Then why are you here? Why did you save m-?"

"Don't flatter yourself, I did not do this for you"

"I don't understand..."

"You don't have to, know this... It won't happen again" and with that he was gone.

She felt confused... but she had to leave here. She couldn't risk another encounter like that. She lifted her shaking hand to the feather in her hair, grunting in pain as she did so. Even the simple task of lifting her arm hurt like hell. She took the feather from her hair and was soaring through the air with in moments, thinking hard about what had just happened.

Sesshomaru watched Rin as she sat there in a bunch of flowers, doing absolutely nothing. This was odd to him, Rin always played in the flowers, trying to make Jaken a flower crown or something. Yet she sat there, her eyes looked as if they had no soul behind them... just staring off into the distance. As if she was completely empty.
Just then, he picked up an unusual sent.

"Don't give me that crap..." was heard loud and clear. It even caused Rin to leave her dazed state and look over to where the voice came from. Rin stood up and ran to it, Sesshomaru walking behind her. Rin pushed some bushes aside and gasped at what she saw. Sesshomaru looked to see what it was, but then sighed and started walking away. Rin was hot on his heels.

"Sesshomaru-sama! Please! Help her! Wolves are so horrible, please help her!" Rin begged as she tugged on his sleeve, tears in her eyes. He looked at her for a moment and sighed. She wont stop bugging him until he saves her or she dies... Rin's mind is to fragile right now for that.

"Stay here" Sesshomaru said as he walked toward Kouga's direction. He watched Kouga choke Kagura as he approached. "Oi, wolf"

Kouga turned around to see Sesshoamru standing there with his usual cold expression. Surprised didn't explain how he felt... more like completely shocked. He didn't take his hands off Kagura yet, he just turned his head around and continued to choke her. "What do you want Sesshoamru?"

"Put her down"
His eyes widened as he looked at him "You can't be serious!"

"Do I look humorous? Put her down now or I will kill you"

"YEAH! LEAVE HER ALONE YOU MEAN OLD WOLF!" Rin shouted behind the bushes. Kouga dropped her to the ground and started to chuckle lightly.

"So that's what this is about, well this is none of your business so just stay out of it!"

"I can't do that... I must make the child be quiet, and she won't be silent unless I stop you! Now leave before I get agitated"

Kouga growled deeply at Sesshomaru before having that feeling in the pit of his stomache that danger was near by. Kouga always trusted his instincts, so he left. These past few days made Sesshomaru grow frustrated and snippy, he wasn't used to such annoyance.

"Tell me something... Why are you here? Have you come to kill me yourself?" Kagura asked with a smirk on her face. He turned around to face her.

"I have no need to kill you"

"Then why are you here? Why did you save m-?"

"Don't flatter yourself, I did not do this for you"

"I don't understand..."

"You don't have to, know this... It won't happen again" and with that he left her.

"Where are you taking me Miroku?" Sango said as Miroku walked with his hands over her eyes.
"Here" he said as he uncovered her eyes. The place was beautiful, it was flat land with tall grass and trees everywhere, with a perfect view of the village. Sango noticed that piles and piles of wood were in the middle of this place. "Miroku, what is this pla-ahh" Sango's arms flew to her left side as she moaned in pain. Both of them were still a bit too wounded to be walking around, but Miroku insisted.

"Sango! Here, sit down" Miroku said as he guided her to the ground. "I'm sorry to bring you out here... but there is something I need to tell you"
Miroku and Sango stared into each other's eyes, not knowing that other eyes were watching them as well.

"Kagome? Why are we here?"

"SHH!" was all she said as she continued to stare at the scene before her.

"I wanted to talk to you alone, do you like this place?" Miroku asked her.

"It's beautiful Miroku"

"It's a nice place, and we can keep watch of the village from here..."

"What are you getting at?"

"Well, Naraku is dead now... the jewel is almost complete, and the hole in my hand is gone. So I want to start a family with you Sango. I really do want you to have my children and... I want to be with you forever"

"EEK!!! He proposed!!!!!" Kagome squeaked with excitement.
Sango's eyes looked into his, her eyes watery and wide.

"So, what do you say Sango?"

"Yes! Yes I want to be with you! Oh Miroku, it will be great, we'll have lots of kids and you'll never cheat on me..."
Miroku paused after that last statement. Kagome sighed.

"You'll-Ne-ver-cheat-ne?" Sango said in chopped words which expressed anger.

"Right! I would never even think of it!" Miroku said with his hands in the air defensively.

Sango sighed as she slumped into his arms. 'Oh Miroku, what will I ever do with you' Sango thought to herself. Then she looked out to the wood and the surroundings of this place... it was perfect. This is where her new home would be...

"Inu yasha?" Kagome asked as she looked up at him within his warm embrace. It was night time and they were out watching the stars with a fire in front of them.

"Yes?"

"That thing with Miroku and Sango made me think, ya know?"

"No... I don't know"
She sighed deeply as she leaned more into him.

"Like... what will happen next? Once we find the rest of the jewel... what then? Where will we live? Here? There?"

"I don't care where we live, though I do think here would be better..." Inu yasha said with hinting in his voice.

"Don't worry about that now Kagome, we still have plenty of time"

Inside Rin's dreams...


"Here in this place... again. This dark empty place... Where are you Sesshomaru-sama?!" Rin cried out. She was back in a dark place, no one around. This place made her feel even more empty and alone. "Will Sesshomaru-sama save me?" she asked herself out loud.

"Rin" came a cold voice from behind her. "Sesshomaru-sama!" Rin chirped.

"Sesshomaru-sama, I knew you would come for me"

"I haven't come for you Rin, I came to tell you I no longer want you around... you do nothing but hold me back"
Rin's eyes widened as she looked into his cold piercing eyes. "No, you don't mean that!"

"Yes I do"

There was a long pause after he said that.

"What can I do to make you want me back?" she asked with tears in her eyes.

"There's nothing you can do..."

"So, Kagome-chan wasn't lying... you really do hate me..."

Sesshomaru gave her no reply, just kept dazing into her eyes. Rin looked down in shame, she must have done something wrong for Sesshomaru to hate her so. That's when she noticed something shiny on the ground. A dagger. She picked it up and examined it.

"If you really want Sesshomaru to be happy, you'll use that dagger and take your own life with it" Kagome said as she came into the light. Rin's watery eyes looked up to both of them.

"This will make you happy?" Rin said as she pressed the tip of the knife into her stomach.

"Go ahead, It will please me greatly to see you die!" Sesshoamru said in such harsh tones.

"Do it Rin... Just let go. It will make him very happy" Kagome urged her.

"DO IT!"


That's when she woke up from her dream, here eyes opened to slits out of grief. She moved her hand to the side, feeling something under it. She looked to see the same dagger she saw in her dream. She wrapped her tiny fingers around it, still hearing Kagome's and Sesshomaru's voice clear in her head. She looked over at Sesshomaru, who was looking away from her. Tears filled her eyes as she could no longer tell what was real and what wasn't. 'If it will make Sesshomaru-sama happy, I will do anything' she thought to herself before quickly taking to knife and stabing herself in the stomach.

Sesshomaru's head snapped around when Rin cried out in pain. He saw the dagger which was half way in Rin's stomach. His eyes widened slightly as he bent down to her. She looked up to him as she let out a painful cough causing blood to cover her lips. He looked at her in total surprise, why would she do that? She wasn't to far from death, she got herself right in the liver.

He placed his hand over her cold forehead as he sighed. "Rin... why did you do this?"
Her pain filled eyes looked away from his as she used her last breath to speak to him. " Because I... I wan-t you to... be happy"

He really didn't understand that... then again, she was insane. Who knows...
She cried out in pain as she arched her back, then went limp and lifeless on the floor. He pulled the dagger out of her and noticed it to be his. He quickly put the dagger out of sight and stood over her body as he took out the Tenseiga. He could see the demons of the other world trying to take her soul and used his sword to dispose of them. He put away his sword and bent back down to her, leaning her up on his knee.
At first, there was nothing, no sign that she was alive, no movement, nothing. Then, he heard her inhale as her eyes fluttered open to look right back into his. As she looked into his eyes, her face twisted in pain and she fell to the floor, weeping.

"You didn't have to do that!!!!" she cried out "I died for YOU!"

"Rin... I don't know why you think your death would bring me happiness... but, it doesn't. So don't do that again"
She gulped hard as she looked into his eyes. "You .... don't.... Rin... die?" She wasn't making much sence but Sesshomaru understood what she was asking.
"No Rin... now go back to bed"

She looked to the ground in sadness as she laid back down. "So dark... so lonely" she muttered as she closed her eyes and drifted back into sleep.

Sesshomaru sighed again as she sat back down next to her. He was doing that allot lately, this whole thing was very stressful. 'Four more days...' he thought to himself as he watched her sleep.
