InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ The Test of Time ❯ Tearful Farewell ( Chapter 13 )

“There she is my woman of the hour!!” Inutaisho beamed as Fawks walked through the door. Fawks smiled sadly.

 

“What ails you, my dear?”

 

“I…I'm sorry…Inutaisho-dono…I…have to go home…” Fawks sighed.

 

“Really?...Don't you mean you have to go back to my son…”

 

Fawks' head snapped up to look at him, her eyes wide with shock, “How…?”

 

“Heh, it's a secret, I put you up to getting rid of Sachiko to see if you were really the right one for Sessho-maru. Now I'm certain, you will make him a good mate and bare many pups. You will bring strength to this clan…” Inutaisho beamed, taking her hands.

 

Fawks smiled, tears glistening in her eyes. “Thank you, Inutaisho-dono…”

 

“Here” he dropped a sphere with clear liquid into her hands.

 

“Break this, when you wish to go home…”

 

Fawks nodded, “But first…I have to say goodbye to Sessh-kun…”

 

Inutaisho nodded with understanding.

 

Fawks hugged him tightly, “Thank you…for understanding”

 

Inutaisho held her back.

 

 

“Sessh-kun…I have to tell you something…” Fawks began.

 

“What troubles you, Koi?” Sessho-maru asked pulling her into his arms.

 

“I…have to go back…to find my friends…”

 

Sessho-maru pulled her out of his arms, scrutinizing her with his intense gaze. “Why?”

 

“You wouldn't believe me if I told you…” Fawks smiled sadly.

 

“Try me”

 

Fawks gazed into his eyes, “My lover…the one I told you about…is you…”

 

Sessho-maru's eyes went wide.

 

“I…I'm from the future…and in it…I'm your mate…”

 

Sessho-maru stared at her for a long while.

 

“I understand if you don't believe me…” Fawks sighed.

 

“…I have no reason not to…”

 

Fawks looked up at him.

 

“You've never lied to me before…”

 

Fawks smiled, kissing him softly, he infolded her in his embrace.

 

“I love you so much, Sessho-maru…”

 

“…will I ever see you again?”

 

“Of course you will…we end up together remember, you can't get rid of me that easily” Fawks smiled.

 

Sessho-maru smiled back, kissing her one last time before she pulled from his embrace. Fawks smiled sadly, tears in her eyes as she smashed the sphere onto the ground.

 

There was a blinding light, when Sessho-maru opened his eyes she was gone.
