Renewing Hope
By: Kinyta
Disclaimer: No I do not, unfortunately, own Inuyasha. All I own is the first movie.
That counts as something, right?
Author's Note: This is the sequel to "One Last Chance at Hope" so I strongly suggest
you read that first. There is no Shippo for I thought it would be to hard on Kagome
and I couldn't get the right scene of death anyway. This one will hopefully be
happier then its prequel. I would really like to thank those that reviewed to OLCaH
because it inspired me to write the sequel. I hope you like it.
Chapter 1: To Begin a New Life
She woke up slowly. `Where am I?' went though her mind. She looked around to find
that she was in Sesshomaru's embrace. `Huh?'
Sesshomaru felt the human stir, and looked down out of the corner of his eye to see
her looking around. `What now?' he asked himself. He had been thinking of what had
happened but still could not figure out why he did what he did. True the sorrow and
pain in her eyes made him remember how he himself felt when he watched his mother die.
But he did not do this for just that reason. He could not remember filling any kind
of pity in his life. This creature in his arm made him fill things he never felt
before. It scared him, but it also intrigued him. He mentally sighs. Looking over the
lands he was above and decided it was almost time to land. It was not good to have
your servants' see you come home with a human in your arm.
Kagome felt Sesshomaru slowly descend from the sky and land softly. She had
remembered that she and him were traveling for almost a twenty-four hour time span
and was ready to stand on her own two feet, at least, she thought she was. Her mind
was still surrendered to her grief and it was hard to tell what she could and could
not do.
He slowly placed her on her feet and waited for her to get her footing. When he let
go he stayed close, waiting to see if she fell, she did not. She stood up and walked
forward testing her balance. She was fine. "We need to get going. Follow me," he
stated, moving in front of her. He listened as she followed him. They were close to
his home, no more then an hour's walk from where they had landed. He didn't look back
at all but he was tempted to when he smelt new tears behind him.
Kagome followed Sesshomaru blindly through the forest. This time to think was not a
very good thing. During this time she remembered the look on her family's faces, and
the way their bodies were torn up. She started to cry once more thinking of how much
pain her family must have been in before they died. This hurt her the most. Her
family had to have been in pain before they died.
They both walked in silence for the next hour, both in their own thoughts. Finally
Sesshomaru stopped to take down the barrier that was up around his fortress. Kagome
looked up and immediately stopped crying due to shock.
"Y-y-you live here?" she stuttered trough. It was beautiful. There were gardens, with
every flower imaginable, surrounding a huge white building that had to be at least
eight stories high, and then there were a few smaller buildings around the larger one.
The smaller ones looked like the servants, while the large one was used for the lord.
There seemed to be no walls restraining the gardens, they just seemed to gradually
grow into the forest. This beautiful scene made Kagome forget about her pain entirely.
Sesshomaru looked at the girl he had brought to his home and saw that she seemed to
forget that his brother had just died. The look of semi-happiness made him want to
make her happy so he answered. "Yes I live here, and you will as well. Come, we must
get you a room and introduce you to Rin." The monotone of his voice seemed more
tender then he intended. He shook his head and ignored this.
Kagome did not know how to reply to that so she just fallowed him to his home. To her
new life...
