Chapter Three: Inuyasha...Awaken by Scent

Sesshoumaru along with an unconscious toad and a two headed dragon rushed off into the night heading straight for his brothers village. His instincts told him that he should get to his little brother abode as soon as possible. From his fathers’ words, Naraku was plotting something evil and had to be stopped. Sesshoumaru knew that he was going to use Kagura to commit his heinous acts and Sesshoumaru didn’t appreciate the spider using what is his.

‘Naraku’s action has prevented Kagura soul from reaching the reincarnation stage. If that pathetic excuse for a dead hanyou thinks he can take what belongs to this Sesshoumaru…he is gravely mistaken. Even in death I will find away to make him pay.’ Sesshoumaru thought as a low growl erupted from his throat.

There was no way Sesshoumaru was going to let Naraku take his soul mate away from him permanently. It didn’t matter that Naraku had found a way to turn himself into a dimension, Sesshoumaru would find away to eliminate him. First he had to gain Inuyasha’s corporation. Then he would find out how Naraku gain enough power to attach himself to hell and become apart of it. Then find away to not only keep his soul to the next world, but eradicate it. Sesshoumaru the ‘killing perfection’ daiyoukai was planning on doing just that.

Not wanting to waste anymore time, he said:

“Ah-Un I am going to make haste to Inuyasha’s village, follow me as swiftly as possible.” With that Sesshoumaru took off like a speeding bullet. Ah-Un was fast, but they could not match the daiyoukai speed, so they followed him as fast as they could.

The forest under Sesshoumaru was nothing but a brown and green blur as he past over them. As he approached the village, he decreased his aura to the point were it was almost undetectable. He knew that when his youkai energy was high, anyone miko, youkai, hanyou or even a normal human could feel it. It sent shivers down their spines. He didn’t have the time or the patience to deal with the other villagers, so he toned down his aura. As he approached the town he thought:

‘I will pay a quick visit to Rin and the Elderly miko before our departure.’ He wanted to see his adopted pup and the woman caring for her before he left. Knowing that he was returning to the same place Rin died in for the second time, irritated him somewhat.

‘This is a foolish emotion, why does this Sesshoumaru yearn to see the pup. I know that she is well, I can sense it.’

He didn’t want to admit to himself that traveling back to that place will bring up some bad memories for him. He saved Rins’ body, yet he could not revive her. He couldn’t save Kagura’s life either. What if he failed to save her soul from Narakus’ clutches. Then Sesshoumaru scoffed to himself and mused:

‘Tch, this Sesshoumaru self-doubt is ridiculous. I will not allow my past experiences to hinder my confidence. I shall use my gained knowledge to aide my objective.’ Sesshoumaru knew that uncertainty will not help him free Kagura nor will arrogance. He decided that he will be confident, but careful. He will free his Kagura.

Everyone was in the village asleep when Kaede felt the presence of a strong youkai outside of her hut. However no one else except for Inuyasha noticed Sesshoumaru presence because of the cloaking of his aura. For now he only wanted the elderly miko and his little brother’s attention.

Kaede came into the room where the front door to the hut was located and saw Sesshoumaru standing just in front of her hut door. She looked at the tall Inu standing in her hut and bowed as low as her aged body would allow her. He nodded to her in return and she said.

“Lord Sesshoumaru please come in and have a seat.” She said as she gestured her hand toward one of the pillows on the floor. She would have offered him tea and something to eat, but from what Rin told her, Sesshoumaru didn’t eat human food.

“There is no need; I will only be here for a short time.” Sesshoumaru said in a deep calm voice.

“How may I help thee?” Kaede asked a bit puzzled wondering why he would show up in the middle of the night.

“Inuyasha and I have some busy to attend to, my retainer and mount will arrive shortly. I wish for them to stay in this hut. They will provide additional protection for Rin while we are away.” He knew Jaken couldn’t do much but Ah-Un was a powerful Ryu that will protect the entire village if ordered to do so by Sesshoumaru.
“Of course Lord Sesshoumaru, is there anything else I can do for ye.”

“I will have a quick audience with Rin before we leave.”

“She’s’ in the back room resting, I will awaken her.”

“Not necessary, I will.” With that said he went to the back Room while Kaede made herself a pot of tea.

Rin was curled up on the futon under the covers. He remembered how she curled up in his tail whenever she thought he was distress or whenever she had nightmares. He could see the little moving lump under the blankets as he thought:

‘It has been three years and she has barely grown. She will be a tiny woman, but this one will be a beauty. She won’t have as much trouble keeping her soul mate; I will make sure of it.’

As far as he was concerned Rin had been through enough hell to last her five life times. He would protect her and her mate as long as possible to ensure her happiness. Of course he will never tell her this.

“Rin.” He said waking her up. She heard his baritone voice and turned towards him rubbing her eyes and said:

“Lord Sesshoumaru…is that you.” She said in a sleeping voice.

Sesshoumaru repressed the urge to roll his eyes at the girls’ late alertness. She was training to be a miko yet when he gave off a little of his energy to wake her up, she acted sluggish. It didn’t occur to him at the time that maybe it was because she trusted him. He said:

“Yes Rin.”

She smiled as she attempted to crawl out of the bed to greet him. He placed his large hand very gently on her chest and easily pushed her back onto her futon and he kneeled down.

“Rin listen” He had her full attention. “Jaken will be staying with you and the miko until Inuyasha and I return.

“Yay, Master Jaken and Ah-Un are coming to visit!!! But do you have to leave so soon milord you just got here.” Her voice switched from excited to disappointed in the same sentence. He noticed that she started to question him more when she got older and it irritated him, but he ignored it. He did pay attention to the disappointment in her voice however. Not wanting to tell her everything and remind her of her time in hell he just said.

“To take care of some unfinished business.”

“Alright, Lord Sesshoumaru will you be back to visit soon.” Sesshoumaru ran his claws through her raven locks, a now familiar form of showing his affection for her as he said:

“Yes I will, in the mean time you will be on your best behavior and you will continue your miko lessons with the Kaede and Kagome, understand.”

“Yes Lord Sesshoumaru.” She said as she gave him a quick peak on his cheek and he patted her head and stood as he said:

“Rest Rin.” Rin instantaneously started to dose off as she said:

“Yes papa…I love you.” She said and then promptly fell asleep. Sesshoumaru smiled a genuine smile. She actually called him Papa; maybe he would allow her to do so more often. The beautiful smile left his face quickly as he heard his brother in the other room.

“Hey Kaede, what the hell is Sesshoumaru doing here in the middle of the night?”

Before Kaede could say a word Sesshoumaru stepped into the room. Inuyasha addressed Sesshoumaru and said:

“Well...ya did wake me up out of a sound sleep with your scent…Hey! Where are ya going?”

Inuyasha said as Sesshoumaru stepped past him. Then Sesshoumaru said:

“Come Inuyasha.” This caused Inuyasha to frown and said:

“You came all the way here to give me orders; you could learn to ask sometimes ya know.”

Sesshoumaru stopped in his tracks as Inuyasha said this. He was already aggravated and his patience was wearing thin. Trying to stay in control he reached back with his left arm, grabbed Inuyasha and pulled him outside into the forest area.

“Get offa me!” Inuyasha said as he tried to free himself from Sesshoumarus’s iron grip. Sesshoumaru only swung Inuyashas’ body around to face him and held each of Inuyasha upper arms tightly. He narrowed his eyes and sent Inuyasha a glare that made a shutter slightly.

“The hell…” Inuyasha said, before he could finish Sesshoumaru snarled and said in a sharp tone:

“Be quiet, and pay heed to my words. I require you to wield the Tessaiga. Use the Meidou technique to open the abyss to hell so we may both gain passage to that world.”

“WHAT?!” What the fuck would make you want us to go to hell again. Haven’t we been through that already?!” Inuyasha said struggling to break free. His brother must have lost his mind. Then he senses something he doesn’t ever remember sensing on the powerful elder brother, fear. It wasn’t a fear of Sesshoumaru mortality though, it was something else.

“Father was able to contact me though a dream because of my connection to Tensaiga. He informed me that Naraku has found away to turn himself into one of the layers of hell. He has taken Kagura soul into his world. If he is not stopped, he may find a way to live again.”

“It could have just been a dream Sesshoumaru, Narakus’ dead there is no way he can come back!!!” Inuyasha said with certainty.

“Father told this Sesshoumaru that he was proud of both of us, proud of you for learning to trust, accepting yourself for who you are and learning to put others ahead of your own desires. He stated that as the eldest, I was to teach and you were to listen. Do you really want to risk the entire pack lives because you were too obstinate to listen as Father wishes little brother?”

Sesshoumaru started at him with an intense fire burning in his eyes. This was unusual, for Inuyasha only knew Sesshoumaru to have coldness in those eyes. That Sesshoumarus’ words and his scent of fear got Inuyasha to listen.

Inuyasha face was full of surprise before his expression changed.

‘No that bastard will not win, I…we won’t let him no matter what.’ Inuyasha thought.

His eyes were full of fire and determination. He didn’t want to believe that the monster could come back, but if that is the case he will do anything to stop him. He will not allow him to hurt any of his friends. Inuyasha noticed how stressful Sesshoumaru was when he mentioned Kaguras’ name. It was as if Sesshoumaru was deeply concern for her. Inuyasha found that he was worried about her as well. Even though she did give him hell in the past, she did come through for the Inu tachi in the end when she saved Kohaku. He made a mental note to ask Sesshoumru about his connection to Kagura later. Right now he had other things to focus on.

“Keh. Alright fine, but I have to tell Kagome what’s’ going on before I leave.” Sesshoumaru released Inuyasha and his little brother headed back to his hut.

Sesshoumaru glanced at Inuyasha out of the corner of his eye and said:

“Don’t forget to tell your mate that she cannot follow, for the jaki in hell kills humans.”
Sesshoumaru said. He knew how stubborn Kagome could be and he knew she would want to follow Inuyasha.

“Yeah, yeah I know.” He said. He went back to his hut and told Kagome what Sesshoumaru said. Kagome was really worried but, trust in their ability to return. She followed Inuyasha into the forest holding back her tears as she did so. She greeted Sesshoumaru with the new nick name she gave him ‘Brother in Law’. Both brothers glared at her, but she paid them no mind. She hugged and kissed Inuyasha and gave Sesshoumaru a quick hug causing him to frown. He turned has back on the two of them and said:

“Enough with the sentiment lets go, Inuyasha.” He said in an impatient authoritative tone.

“Keh. Don’t get your panties all twisted I’m commin (coming).”

Normally Sesshoumaru would have gave him a right hook for that remark, but has mind was too preoccupied with Kagura.

Kagome grabbed his wrist gaining his attention. She looked into his golden depths and said:

“I love you Inuyasha.”

“Same here. Don’t tell the others until the morning okay.” He said in a soft voice.

“I won’t.” She said giving him one last kiss before he followed his brother.

Kagome went back to the hut and cried, unable to sleep for the rest of the night.

Inuyasha whips out his transformed Tessaiga and says.

“Well let’s go kick Naraku ass again, that’s one twisted bastard this world doesn’t need.”

“Indeed.” Sesshoumaru said as Inuyasha unleashed his attack. They both stepped through the portal to hell in search of Naraku and Kagura…
