The Red

Prologue: Disturbed

Again and again it came to him, this dream that would haunt the most cunning and controlled of minds. The utter chaos was unsettling to say the least, and it was not often that Sesshomaru was unsettled. It was normal that not even the slightest hint of confusion ever fogged the mind of the demon lord because he was always secure in the knowledge of the things that occurred around him.

But this dream… It presented an entirely new concept, one of unfamiliarity, and he did not like what it seemed to be pointing towards… Or rather, who…

Each night the dream haunted him with the ideas of love, passion, and desire of which he'd never seen the likes. All of these experiences and feelings seemingly tried to entangle and engulf him, causing him to fall blindly into the abyss that was the warmth of a certain woman's arms.

Each night he dreamt of her, her radiant smile, her midnight hair, her beautiful gray blue eyes… Gah! He could not believe he was dreaming about that wench. Yet, it never seemed to fail; she was always there within the lush plain of his dreams, smiling openly, awaiting his presence with warm, open arms. And like a starved fool, he went willingly into her embrace, not even able to curse himself for his actions; it just felt too damned good…

Sesshomaru sighed as he sat up in his bed, the tips of his clawed fingers coming up to rub gingerly at throbbing temples in an attempt to soothe the beginning ache that normally followed the dream.

He knew he'd always been intrigued by the woman, as she had many attributes and strengths that most humans did not. For one, she was unfailingly loyal, though in his personal opinion, such a precious thing was wasted on the person upon the receiving end; namely, that sniveling, pretentious twit of a hanyou.

The woman was strong-willed and vibrantly spirited. She always seemed to hold her resolve and determination even in the bleakest of situations. Even with death staring her in the face, she stood her ground with a resilience that is unmatched by any other human. Her zest for life and vitality made her amiable, making it almost impossible not to smile just from the enthusiasm and exuberance practically radiating from her like a second aura. Not to mention, she was pleasing to the eye and the nose.

Yes, it was true. The great demon lord, Sesshomaru was captured by curiosity and interest for this mere wisp of a human woman. Starting out in the given time, he'd accepted his none-too obvious respect for the girl because she was nothing if not noticeably powerful and unique. But things changed over the two years he'd come to know of the woman called Kagome. Not only had she become an incredibly beautiful and powerful young woman… no, it wasn't just that; she'd become a youkai…

Author's note: Please, I'm begging you… review this story. I'd like to know what you all think, being that this is my first attempt at an Inuyasha fic, and I'm a little unsure of what I'm doing here. This was a moment's inspiration, you see, and I need a little guidance so that I might continue if everyone thinks it's good enough. Ja! Hope you enjoyed. ^^
