InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Resurrection Remixed ❯ Reflections ( Chapter 2 )

Part two: Reflections

 

 

 

Kagome held the books to her chest as she walked down the courtyard of the school. It was a beautiful day one meant to be spent outside. She hailed a few friends as they passed her and gave them all bright smiles. She was a friendly person there was no doubting that but sometimes she seemed so sad and lost.

 

 

No one would blame her really. Kagome Higurashi was a blank slate. She had no knowledge of who she was or who she used to be. All she knew was her name. a year ago, she shown up in a hospital in Kyoto. She didn't know how she got there and neither did the doctors. She'd had a large knot on her head and a concussion. They all said that maybe the bump on the head had caused her lost of memory or maybe it was something so tragic in her past that her mind decided to block it out. They'd had hope that she would remember something some day but after a few months they gave up on that theory completely.

 

 

So now here she was going to school and having no knowledge of her previous life. She felt so confused some days. There were some things she could do or didn't like and she couldn't understand them. Its like it was who she was before now. Only bits and pieces of her former self returning.

 

 

She walked through the school's gardens and sat near a pond. As she stared at her reflection, she wondered who she used to be. Was it someone good or someone bad. She giggled at that thought. No matter what her imagination could never bring her to think that she was someone bad. She wondered sometimes if maybe she should just forget about trying to remember things. Life was going really good for her now. She was studying to become a doctor and always had a 3.5 GPA. That was really good for a girl who could not remember herself.

 

 

But no matter how much she tried to force herself to believe it, that was just not enough. She wanted to know who she was. she was feeling empty inside. She was feeling that something was missing that should be there and she could never truly be happy until she found what it was.

Inutaisho watched his children and sighed. They weren't happy and it was his fault. If he hadn't been such a son of a bitch in the past, they wouldn't have so many enemies. He glanced over to his wife and saw the way she was staring at her children. No doubt she was thinking the same thing.

 

 

He looked to his oldest Sesshomaru and knew there was a lot going on in his mind. He was newly mated and he should be enjoying it, instead he was trying to negotiate a peace treaty between the other lords and was trying to protect his mate from all against them. Inutaisho knew Rin was a strong courageous woman but she'd have to be so much more in the near future.

 

 

He then looked to his second child, Inuyasha. He was proud of his son and who he was. growing up a hanyou, the child had a lot to overcome and he did it well. Inutaisho always knew that Inuyasha would be someone great and would make him proud. Although he did not like that they had to kill people it was in his blood. He knew of his son's courageous mate from stories of everyone else and saw the beautiful miko from the many pictures his son had of her. he felt sorry that the girl was lost in Inuyasha's quest to revive he and his wife and always felt a little guilty over his son's pain.

 

 

He knew Inuyasha tried to reassure them that they were not to blame but Inutaisho knew his wife felt the same way. They wish there was something they could do for the boy but knew this was one journey their son would have to do on his own.

 

 

Inutaisho looked at Sango then. The daughter of his heart. Sango, biologically wasn't his daughter. She was conceived because of his stupidity. When Inuyasha was conceived, Inutaisho and his mother Izaiyo were not married or mated. They were simply dating regularly. When she'd gotten pregnant with his second son, he was happy all the same but not sure if he wanted to be tied down again. He was happy with the relationship they had and was sure they could continue like that.

 

 

He should have known Izaiyo would not be happy with this but he was too caught up in his own world. She'd asked him if he was ever going to marry her and being the bastard that he was, he let her know that if he married her, he would not be able to have as many women as he did at the time. Fed up and frustrated, Izaiyo took their son and moved out of his home. she promised him she would never come back unless he was ready to settle down with her.

 

 

Inutaisho was prideful and wasn't about to let some human woman tell him what to do. Although he missed her, he refused to beg for her love. It had gone on two almost three years since they had been apart and the only time Inutaisho saw Izaiyo was when he came to see his son. The young boy had sensed the tension between his parents but he didn't understand it at the time. Inutaisho saw the way Izaiyo watched him with Inuyasha and knew that she loved him just as much as he loved her but both were too stubborn to back down.

 

 

She started dating again after realizing she would never have Inutaisho back. She'd met a nice human man who was strong and loving and caring. He was devoted solely to making her happy and she felt it was all that she'd ever wanted but she was not happy. She wanted Inutaisho but it was obvious he wanted nothing to do with her. she finally gave up on the dream of being with him once more and allowed herself to care more for the new man in her life. They had been dating for a few months when she'd become pregnant with his child. The man was happy and ecstatic and right away asked to marry her.

 

 

He had no problem being a step father to Inuyasha and the boy didn't have a real problem with the man but he was still very loyal to his father. Izaiyo for once in her life was happy even though she felt something was missing. Weeks before she and Kima was to be married, he'd been in a fatal accident and died instantly. She was heartbroken. She'd really cared for him and was looking forward to their future. She'd moved back home after the funeral and it had been the first time she'd seen Inutaisho in a long time. He'd given her space because of the wedding and had servants retrieve Inuyasha for him.

 

 

When he saw how sad she was, the wall he had put up around his heart came

crashing down and he had to have her again. She'd forgiven him for his selfishness and his lecherous ways, and he forgave her for leaving him and giving herself to another man. The night they'd made love, he'd made her his mate. They'd transferred blood and in the act, he'd claimed her child as his own. When Sango was born, she had all the appearance as a normal human child but as she grew up they saw some demon tendencies in her. though he had not created the child himself, Inutaisho didn't love Sango any less.

 

 

Now as he looked at her, he wish he could take away all her pain. The girl always had her father wrapped around her little finger and even as adult it was still the same way. He'd smelt sadness and depression on her and tried his hardest to make her smile. He knew what it was that had her sad and there was nothing he could do about it. She would have to deal with it all in her time.

 

 

****

 

 

Inuyasha looked at the shards of the jewel hanging from his neck and swore. There was still so many more pieces he had to get. He'd gotten the idea in his head that maybe if he collected the shards and had the full jewel he would get Kagome back. He'd have her soul back and somehow he could bring her back. He really didn't know where that thought came from but it did.

 

 

He looked up when the door to his office opened and his best friend entered the room. Miroku had a worn look on his face and right now looked older than his twenty-seven years. This life was taking a toll on them all. They were supposed to be happy now and living lives with their family but for some reason it never stopped. Just as they'd killed the biggest evil of them all, another one came up and this time they were seeking revenge.

 

 

Inuyasha hadn't at first taken into account that someone may want to get revenge for killing Naraku. The man was evil incarnate and there was no way someone would be so upset that he'd die…but Inuyasha was wrong. No one knew Naraku had a son. No one really cared until the man threatened and killed just to get Inuyasha's attention. The man growled. He hated that son of a bitch. He was just so fucking annoying.

 

 

“Anything new?” Inuyasha asked his friend as Miroku took a seat. The man threw something on Inuyasha's desk and leaned back in his chair. Inuyasha took the manila envelope and opened it. He looked over the papers and the pictures and growled even more.

 

 

That son of a bitch thought he was so smart by putting a spy in his house. The girl had been the one he so called “molested” to get his attention. She was an orphan and they took pity on her. after being initiated by one of the other men she was a part of the their clan and had been apart of them for the past three months. Inuyasha had never really trusted anyone but there was something about this girl he couldn't place. That is why he'd had Miroku get closer to her. he knew the girl fancied him and would say or do anything the man wanted of her.

 

 

The pictures in front of him proved what he thought. They showed her sneaking around his own mansion and rifling through his decoy office. They also showed her driving off. The next picture showed her in front of a ordinary two story house. The man at the door was wearing all black. He had a skin head and he was very ugly in appearance. The next picture showed her handing an envelope to another man. He was tall and muscular with long black hair and crimson eyes. He looked a bit like Naraku and Inuyasha figured this must be the infamous Hiten, Naraku's eldest son.

 

 

The next picture made Inuyasha raise a brow and look at Miroku. The man only grinned and shrugged. A pervert to the end, Miroku had taken a picture of the girl Yura giving head to Hiten. “Was that necessary?”

 

 

“I figured you would want to know the nature of their relationship,” Miroku said with a shameless grin.

 

 

“Thanks for being so considerate,” Inuyasha said as he put the pictures back in an envelope and placed them in his desk drawer.

 

 

“So what are you going to do?” Miroku asked his friend and pack leader.

 

 

“Nothing. Not now at least. I want you to grill her some more. No doubt she'd let it slip sooner or later why she's here and what's she's really here to do.”

 

 

Miroku nodded but he thought about Sango. He didn't want to lie to the girl and ever since taking this assignment that's all he's been doing to her. he loved her and she meant so much to him but lately it seemed like she wanted nothing to do with him. He didn't know why? He had no idea what he'd done and knew he had to make it up to her.

 

 

Inuyasha watched the man and knew his mind was on his sister. He sighed. Maybe he shouldn't have given this assignment to Miroku. Maybe he should have given it to someone else but besides his brother, Miroku was the only one he really trusted with something like this.

 

 

“Go to her,” Inuyasha said causing Miroku to look at him. The man tried to hide a smile and Inuyasha only rolled his eyes.

 

 

Miroku was out of the room in seconds and headed towards their bedroom where he thought she would be. When he opened the door, she wasn't there. Where could she be. He searched the entire mansion and found nothing. Not one sign of her. he shrugged and thought maybe she had something to do outside of the mansion. That gave him time to prepare anyway. He would make tonight something she'd never forget.

 

 

****

 

 

She was exhausted. Today she'd gotten out of the house to clear her head and give her some time to think about what it was she was going to do. She'd also done a little shopping. She knew it was premature still but she just couldn't help it when she saw the store. She made her way to their room knowing he wouldn't be there. Lately, he never was. after she'd seen him that night in the kitchen, things had really been tense between them. She opened her room door and dropped her bags by the door and closed it behind her. she hadn't been paying much attention at first and then when she looked up she was surprised.

 

 

The room was completely dark, that should have given her a clue that something was up. The second one was that there were candles everywhere. As she shrugged out of her jacket, she looked around with wide confused eyes. She looked down at her feet and saw a trail of rose petals and saw that they were heading in the direction of their bathroom. Curious, she decided to follow them.

 

 

When she got there she found, she found that room was lit only with candles as well and she could see the large Jacuzzi tub was filled with bubbles. There was a sign on it that said get in. Sango smirked but decided to go along with it anyway. She was mad with him but she felt a soak would help her relax. As she settled into the warm water, she leaned back and closed her eyes. Ah this was the life.

 

 

 

****

 

 

Sesshomaru looked at the man before him and it take every inch of control not to reach across the table and snap his neck. the son of a bitch was getting on his last nerve. He'd been in this “meeting” all damn day and all he wanted to do was go home and fuck his bitch. But no…oh no. he had to be stuck here in these proceedings that were taking so long and going absolutely nowhere.

 

 

He'd been an ass when he'd told Inuyasha he would run their family's business and he should concentrate on his own and finding his mate. He'd happily done the work at first but when his parents had been revived, he'd thought that maybe they would take the task away from him. But no. The great Taiyoukai Inutaisho was “enjoying retirement” as he'd so wonderfully put it and left the business in his older son's capable hands. Sesshomaru wished he could strangle his own father and wished he could go back and cut out his own tongue for making the suggestion of taking over.

 

 

The men before him were all old and annoying. They were pompous idiots who would no doubt be overrun by a younger generation of youkai sooner or later. All of their thoughts and beliefs were so outdated that Sesshomaru couldn't understand how they had come to be in control of so much and how they managed to keep it. The man across from him was yelling at another because he thought……and of course the other man disagreed.

 

 

Sesshomaru just wished a rogue demon would come in and slice out their tongues…hell in a few minutes he just may turn out to be that rogue demon. He looked up and glanced at the clock. It was already past eight and he'd left from six that morning. Granted he knew these proceedings would be long and tedious but this was absolutely ridiculous. Not being able to take it anymore, he stood to his feet drawing the eyes of the other occupants.

 

 

“Gentlemen you have been yelling and arguing for the past few hours and still you have come to no conclusion. You may not have any other plans for the night but I do. So decide what you want done by tomorrow or I'll see that things are done my way. Goodnight.”

 

 

The older youkai watched as he left the office not believing the way he spoke to them. No respect at all. But then again this was Sesshomaru. What he'd just displayed was respect because they all knew the Makoto brothers were ruthless. The sighed and turn back to each other. They'd better do what Sesshomaru said and come to some sort of agreement because they didn't want to aggravate the young man.

 

 

 

****

 

 

When Sesshomaru got home, there was still activity going on but he didn't care for anything other than finding Rin. He needed her so much. They were mated for only a year now and it was still a fresh feeling. He was always worrying over her even though he knew she could take care of herself. these emotions were new and raw and angered him at times but when he saw her smile at him it was all worth it.

 

 

When he got to their bedroom it was empty. She was not there. Where the hell was she at this time? She was his bitch! She was to be waiting for him naked in bed when she knew he would need her so much. He followed his nose through the house until he found her relaxing in the bubbling Jacuzzi. He growled when he saw how relax she was when he was feeling so taught and tense.

 

 

His growl caused her eyes to open quickly and she looked directly at him. When she saw how feral he looked she hid a smile. No doubt he'd gone looking for her to find her gone and that upset him. That made his demon angry. Rin knew him so well that she knew what to expect of him. She knew he wanted her and she wanted him to. She had counted on him getting angry and coming to find her. that was the reason she was now sitting in the warm Jacuzzi in the skimpiest two piece she could find.

 

 

She watched as he stripped off his clothing all the while never breaking eye contact with her. she gave him a seductive smile and licked her lips when his body was bared inch by inch. When he was naked and stood before her she looked into his eyes.

 

 

“Come to me my love,” she told him and he was in the water pinning her against the wall in the blink of an eye.

 

 

“Why weren't you waiting for me?” he asked as he braced his hands on either side of her.

 

 

“I thought you might enjoy a midnight swim,” Rin said as she looked up at her soon to be husband.

 

 

“You thought wrong. What you should have been thinking was that I wanted you in bed wet willing and waiting for me,” Sesshomaru said as he nipped her shoulder.

 

 

Rin moaned. God she loved this man. “I'm sorry Sesshomaru. I won't make the mistake again.”

 

 

“You bet you won't,” he said as he lifted her legs to wrap around him. Rin held onto the wall behind her. she looked into his eyes and saw how bright they were shining as he stared at her. “Tell me you love me Rin. Tell me you need me.”

 

 

“You know I do Sesshy. You know how much I love you and how much I need you right n—“

 

 

The word was ripped from her throat as Sesshomaru thrust forward impaling her petite body on his. For the rest of the night screams moans and growls could be heard coming from pool room. No one though had the guts to go in there. By the sounds of it anyone you dared interrupt would be ripped to shreds.
