Chapter Three- Follow or Die!


Yami looked out the window, surprised, when he heard thunder and saw violent flashes of lightning. The blue sky was quickly turning black with heavy rolling clouds.

"Huh? There wasn't supposed to be rain today...hey Anzu, don't stand too close to the windows, you don't want to get hit by lightning or anything! I doubt that's probable to happen, but you know-where are you going?"

Anzu appeared not to have heard Yami's words. She seemed to be in some sort of a trance. She looked away from the mirror and instead locked her gaze on the outside sky. She walked forward until she approached the balcony doors, which she slid open and walked out.

"Anzu! Come back!" He sighed, annoyed, when she once again ignored him. The sudden storm was getting worse; the wind was so strong it blew open the balcony doors. The blinds on Yami's windows flew off and crashed into the wall. Yami looked around the room, which now had papers and other ligth objects flying around.

"This is gonna be a pain to clean up..." He had torn his gaze away from Anzu in order to watch the chaos in the room. He jumped in surprise as a loud boom errupted from the sky, shaking the ceramics on his dresser.

"Anzu, you better get back in here! ANZU!" The glasses of soda he had been gripping for the past few minutes suddenly crashed to the floor, shattering into hundreds of tiny pieces. Yami felt a few shards cut through his leg as he ran past, transfixed on the scene before him. Anzu was standing on the railing of the balcony, looking up into the sky. Yami's eyes burned as a sudden flash of very bright lightning appeared outside. The bedroom went dark around him. He stopped dead in his tracks, staring at the empty balcony railing.

Yami's heart pounded in terror. What had happened to Anzu?! He tried to walk forward, tried to reach the blacony, but his feet seemed glued in place. He hadn't heard a scream or anything...

The power flickered back on and Yami's sight adjusted to the light. After taking a few more shaky breaths, he summoned enough courage to walk over to the balcony. The sky was slowly brightening, the last rumbles of thunder fading away into the distance.

Yami's palms were sweating and he realized his fingernails had been diging into them. Unreleasing his clench, he felt drops of warm liquid on his palm.

"Oh god...I hope nothing happened to her...this is all my fault...what if..." His mind raced as all the possibilities ran through his head. He finally reached the railing. Taking in a deeo breath, he placed his hands on the railing and prepared to look over. As soon as he placed his hands on the railing, he felt his stomach do a flip. He felt something, now cold, on the stone. Forcing his gaze down, he saw red splatters on the stone railing. Yami gasped and frantically looked past the railing onto the ground three stories below. He saw the same red liquid spread on the ground and also...

"Anzu?!"

Rin looked up him bitterly.

"Do it. I have a nice dagger waiting for you if you disagree with my orders."

Rin fell to her knees beside Sesshomaru. She had to live so that she could avenge his death, or rather, murder. Tears fell from her saddened eyes onto the taiyoukai's cold face. Taking a last glance at Him, she started to probe through his pockets.

Sh pulled out a rather large bag containing money first, followed by a few rings and other assorted jewelery. Next she untied the sword sheath's from his waist and handed them to Him. Snatching the small blade He had given her, she pried the jewels off of his clothes and put them in the bag with the other jewelery. Reaching into his front pocket, she felt something soft. The scent of roses found her nose as she pulled it out. Rin gasped in surprise...he still had it?

Holding it in her hand, she recalled the day she had given it to him.

Flashback

Rin pulled her hair behind her face and tied it together in a ponytail with a flower. Rubbing a few petals over her wrist and neck, she added the scent of roses to herself. Then she crefully picked up the little present she had made him. She heard Jayken calling to Sesshomaru and quickly stood up and ran toward the two.

"Sesshomaru-sama! Rin has spent all day making you something...I hope you like it!" Pulling it out from behind her back, she handed it to him.

Sesshomaru's eyes looked over the object. It was a heart made of flowers. A rose protruded from the center, while ligther in colour petals surrounded it, making the heart form.

"...Thank you, Rin..." He said quietly, putting it in his front pocket.

End Flashback

Was that what she had seen him quickly stuff into his front pocket when she would sneak up on him? She choked back tears as He grabbed it from her. He glanced over it before throwing it on the ground and mashing his boot onto it.

"....Whya re you so cruel?! What do you want with me? I thought you said..."

"You thought? That's pretty funny. You never seemed to back then. Who cares what I said. That was the past, and this is the present." He hooked his finger under her chin and tilted her face up.

"Besides, darling Rin, I thought you loved me!"

Hot tears poured from her eyes as she pushed away from him. Turning around she grabbed Sesshomaru's limp and cold hand.

".....I can only love one person....." She nervously glanced up at him, but gripped Sesshomaru's hand tighter.

Inuyasha walked down the long, dark hallway. Stopping at two large black doors, he waited for them to open. When they finally did, he sauntered in and approached the two figures already in there.

"Inuyasha! Long time, no see! I was wondering if you were coming back-"

"Yeah, I did. Did exactly as you told me. What now?"

A small bag flew through the air and landed in Inuyasha's waiting hands. He opened it and looked inside.

"Why is there more?" He asked cautiously.

"I want you to get her next. The one born from Earth and bones. Bring her to me." He looked down at Rin, then back to inuyasha, smirking.

Inuyasha looked back, amused.

"Yeah, alright." Inuyasha turned and leapt out of the room, an evil smile on his face the whole time.

***

They've destroyed it already. It's only a matter of time before they come again. You should have been better prepared!"

"Yes, I know! I'm sure you would be in the same mess if you were me. They're almost ready, they just need a little more time."

"It better only be a little bit of time. I can sense it coming. It's grown stronger. And a new scent lingers in the air, lost and forgotten."

"..."

"Just make them hurry up."

***

They could sense it now. It was getting closer. The creatures steadily moved on. The horde had much since greatened. The object they were destined to had somehow gained great power already.

***

A pair of eyes fluttered open. Or at least, they thought they fluttered open. There was no light in this strange place. Nothing to see, to feel, to hear. Just silence and darkness.

"Where....?"

Attempting to stand up, it looked around. Turning around, everything was still dark. Through the silence though, it could hear something. It was faint, but it was there. The sound could not be considered as anything it had heard before. What was coming?

***

`I'm sorry. Really I am. I don't know what to do now. There's two, yet only one. Well, now there is three. Possibly four...Soon. Soon I will know. Until then, I will just have to wait. Just follow, or die.'
