InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ The Village ❯ Rin ( Prologue )

The Village

Authors Notes:  I do not own Inuyasha or any of its characters.  Don't sue me.

This is my first fanfiction, and I'm rather new at the whole writing thing.  But this story has been in my head for a year or so, and I'm trying hard to put it on paper.

 Summary: After the Defeat of Naraku, everyone goes their separate ways never to see each other again. But a certain village will link them back as they meet a woman of unusual power and a girl so invincible that not even Inuyasha can defeat. Friends are brought back together, and hidden love will awaken.

Prologue

Rin felt terribly ill.  Her stomach could seem to hold anything in.  It didn't matter whether she ate her not she couldn't stop vomiting.   It was her 15th birthday and instead of celebrating she was in bed trying to get better.  Her head turned to the door at the sound of it opening.  She smiled at the sight of her lord.  There he stood still as handsome and beautiful as he was the day she met him.  Sesshoumaru entered the room, and then kneeled down next to Rin's futon.  He looked down at her with the same cold expressionless stare he always held.

"How are you feeling Rin?"  He asked her.

Rin smiled softly at Sesshoumaru. "My stomach can't seem to hold anything in but, other than that I'm alright."  with those words she quickly covered her mouth trying hard not to vomit.  She didn't want to embarrass herself in front of Sesshoumaru.

"Tomorrow morning, Jaken will wake you and help you gather your things.  We are taking you to a nearby village.  There is a woman that may treat this illness of yours."

"Yes, Sesshoumaru-sama," she replied.  She watched as Sesshoumaru left her room.  She smiled weakly, her heart was happy that her Lord was trying to take care of her.  Yet a part of her feared that he might be trying to get rid of her.  God, I hope not. She thought silently to herself.  Sesshoumaru had been taking care of herself since she was eight years old.  She had grown to love him and wished nothing more than to stay by his side forever.  Rin sighed and closed her eyes, drifting into sleep.  Maybe tomorrow she'll get better.

 

The sun rose the next morning as Jaken entered Rin's room, she looked at the pale, ill girl lying on the bed.  "Rin! Get up!  We're leaving soon to the village."

Rin rose from the futon.  She clasped her hand to her mouth and ran to the window.  Jaken stared at her as she hung her head out the window vomiting. 

Meanwhile, Sesshoumaru stood at the entrance of the castle waiting for Jaken to bring Rin.  His patience was growing thin.  Then he caught Rin's ill scent that told him that she was no doubt giving in to her weak stomach.  "Jaken!" Within Rin's room Jaken jumped to the angry sound of Sesshoumaru calling his name.  He quickly rushed out of Rin's room and made his way to Sesshoumaru bowing low to his feet. “My Lord, forgive me." he pleaded.  "  the girl will not remove herself from the window.  Her stomach has got the better for her.  She-" he stopped when he noticed that Sesshoumaru left and headed to Rin's room.  "Stupid girl,” Jaken mumbled under his breath.  "It be easier to let the girl die, and if he wants to he can use tenseiga to resurrect her.  Lord Sesshoumaru and his wimbs, why must he insist on keeping a human girl by his side?"

Sesshoumaru entered Rin's room and found her with her head and arms hanging out the window.  He heard her groan as he walked over to her and picked her up.  With one arm holding her back and the other under her knees, he carried her out of the room and passed Jaken. "Matte," Jaken cried as he ran after Sesshoumaru, once he had Rin's things of course.

Night fell and Sesshoumaru ordered Jaken to set camp.  Once he did, Sesshoumaru set a sleeping Rin on her bed.  She had been asleep since they left the castle.  Rin opened her eyes slightly and smiled weakly at her Lord. "Arigato, Sesshoumaru-sama." she said before drifting back to sleep.  Sesshoumaru looked down at her and watched her sleeping face for quite some time before retiring, himself.  Before night falls, tomorrow they'll reach the village and perhaps the woman there will be able to cure Rin.

 

~Rin's Dream~

There she sat, talking with her long time friend, Kagome, in Kagome's home. The woman smiled as the looked down and rubbed her swollen belly. Clearly she was pregnant.

 

“Oh Rin, Birthing a child is one of the most precious thing in the world.” Kagome told her.

 

“How I wish I could get married and have a child,” Rin said dreamily. “But that would mean I'd have to leave Sesshoumaru-sama. And I would love nothing more than to stay by his side forever.”

 

Suddenly the world around her went dark. She saw nothing and heard nothing. She was alone. She called out for Sesshoumaru, but heard nothing but her own voice. There as no one. Suddenly she heard crying and turned in the direction, in which she heard it, but nothing was to be seen yet still the crying continued. Then a ray of light shined on a single spot revealing a baby. Rin walk over and took the child into her arms and gently rocked it. “That's enough, baby” she said in the gentle of her voice. “Do you miss mommy?” The child smiled and giggled in Rin's arms. Rin smiled down at the baby. “That's better.” Suddenly the child was yanked from her arms and a light shone on her face blinding her from seeing what had happened.

 

 

~End of Dream~

 

 

 

Rin awoke to the sun shinning down on her face. She sat up and noticed that Jaken was putting thing away. She heard her named being called and turned to Sesshoumaru greeting him with a smile. He stood next to her a looked down at her with the same emotionless expression. It never bothered her. She loved his eyes the most, those beautiful golden eyes. “Can you walk?” he asked, waking her from her daze. “I think so,” she told him. Sesshoumaru watched as she struggled to get out of her bed, her knees shaking as she looked of the effort to stand. She finally stood straight up and smiled at him. “I'm fine, Sesshoumaru-sama,” she told him. She took a step towards him, only to collapse straight into his arms. Sesshoumaru picked her up and carried her, the rest of the way, to the village. As they walked Rin looked up at her lord as he stared forward focusing only on their destination. “Gomen nasai,” she said softly. “I'm sorry for being such a burden to you.”

 

The Light dimmed in the sky as the finally reached the village. There waiting her them was a young woman, perhaps no older than 30. She had a thin petite body, with long brown hair than she tied back and very nice eyes. She welcomed them a smile upon her face. “So this is the girl?” she asked looking at Rin who was still in Sesshoumaru's arms. “I'm Rin,” she told the woman. “Well my name is Tejina,” the woman told her. She turned and walked off motioning them to follow. “Come, my hut has what I need to see to this girl of yours.” They followed, Rin still in Sesshoumaru's arms. “Who is this girl exactly?” Rin asked.

 

“That woman is Tejina, a miracle worker,” Jaken said. “She was the one who gave Sesshoumaru-sama back his.”

 

“Oh,” was Rin's reply. She looked a Sesshoumaru's arm. She recalled that when they first met he had only one arm. Then as of last year, he returned to the castled with both arms, looking as if he never lost it to begin with. Seeing that she never asked as to what had happened.

 

They passed in the village having people look and whisper at them. Many grabbed their children and ran into their homes. Sesshoumaru looked upon the humans with disgust. Being surrounded by the scent of humans started to ill him, but he needed to ensure Rin's health. They reached the Tejina's hut and stood waiting her. Tejina took Rin from Sesshoumaru's arms. “I need to examine Rin alone,” she told them. “I promise no harm to her.” Tejina brought Rin into her hut as Sesshoumaru and Jaken waited outside.

 

Night had already come when Tejina exited her hut and confronted Sesshoumaru. “My Lord the girl can be cure,” she informed him. “But I will need to keep her here for a year to ensure her health.”

 

“A year you say?”

 

“Yes, My Lord, depending on how fast she can recover, I'd say no more and a year. If lucky I'd might only need her for some months.”

 

“If it is a year so need, then we will return in one year,” Sesshoumaru told her coldly.

 

The tone of his voice frighten her, with no doubt, he would kill her if she let anything bad happen to Rin. She bowed before him. “I will take care of the girl.”

Sesshoumaru nodded a left with Jaken following behind him. Tejina watched him as he left the village. “Left without even saying good-bye.” She turned her head to her hut and looked upon it with a sad expression. “This isn't going to be easy,” she said as she made her way to her hut.

 

Rin was in tears he Tejina informed her that she must stay. She was even more heart broken that Sesshoumaru had left without saying good-bye. Tejina tried her best to calm her. “It's only a year,” Tejina told her. “And it's for the best. He did say he'll be back next year.” But that did stop Rin's tears from falling. “But what if he forgets and I've never been away from him that long.” Rin cried. Putting both hand on Rin's shoulder, Tejina sighed, “He won't forget, you've been with him since you were a small child. He'll come,” Tejina assured her. Rin finally stopped crying and Tejina, put her asleep.

 

One year.

 

One year without her Beloved Sesshoumaru. Rin didn't think she could go on.

 

But indeed she did and next year she returned to Sesshoumaru with a big smile.

Preview Chp 1. Inuyasha vs. the village girl

 

“WIND SCAR!!!!”

 

“Inuyasha, no!” Kagome cried, but it was to late was the wind scar went hurdling toward the young girl. But when it cleared up there was no sign of the girl. Kagome eyes shot up at the sky and there she was. The girl had dodged the wind scar. The girl flew down preparing to attack with her sword, but inuyasha countered it with Tetsaiga.

 

“Stop it! You STUPID girl!” Inuyasha yelled as he dodge all the girls swings, but then her blade came in contact with his arm then leg, as blood squirked out. Forgetting the fact that his opponent was a girl and human, he held back no more. He charged at the girl and swung his sword to the right, but she ducked straight below the blade and using the hilt of her sword knocked Tetsaiga out of Inuyasha's hand then, knocking him to the ground. The girl took her sword and pointed it at Inuyasha's neck, preparing to strike him dead.

 

Until next time.
