The Death Of A Child
Dead. She was dead. His pup, his Rin, dead. The scene of the fight had gone silent when the little girl feel to the ground, already dead from the multiple cuts. It wasn’t supposed to happen this way, Sesshomaru thought as he knelt by the girl’s body, gathering her into his arms.
Sesshomaru looked at the little girl in his arms that was sleeping. They been traveling since yesterday afternoon without stopping & now she had finally given in to sleep so he had gathered her into his arms so she could sleep. They were on their way to get the Tenseiga from his brother who stole it from him just a few days ago during their last battle. He had actually been weaken during the fight & he wasn’t able to go after his brother. But now that he had his strength back, he was going to kill his brother for taking what was his. When they finally got close enough to where Sesshomaru could smell clearly that his brother’s human wench was in heat, he set Rin down on the ground & looked at Jaken. “Watch her while I’m gone. I’ll be back shortly,” he ordered before departing from the two.
Jaken watched his master leave until he could no longer see him & looked down at the sleeping human girl, scoffing. “Hmph, why should I have to watch over such a pitiful thing? It’s not fair! I should be fighting alongside Lord Sesshomaru, not babysitting a curse!”

The group of friends had been walking, Kagome glaring at Inu Yasha for taking his brother’s sword, then losing it, though she didn’t know why he’d taken it in the first place. He has Tetsusaiga, why in the heck would he need Tenseiga? Why do I have a bad feeling about this?! Kagome mentally screamed as she looked at Inu Yasha. “Why did you take that sword anyway?!”
“Because I can,” Inu Yasha answered. “Besides, if he comes for it, he’s screwed, I don’t have it anymore.”
“I thought you took it because you don’t know how to use your own sword correctly,” a voice said from behind Inu Yasha before he was whipped in the back, making him fall to the ground.
“Sesshomaru!” Kagome said as she turned around to see Sesshomaru with his light whip coming from his hand as he delivered another hit to Inu Yasha’s back with the whip. Blood showed on Inu Yasha’s kimono as he stood.
“Sesshomaru,” he growled, “come to claim what’s yours?”
“Yes I have brother,” he answered as he made an attempt to strike Inu Yasha’s front with the whip, only to have Inu Yasha block the whip with his arms. “Where’s the Tenseiga?”
“I don’t have it,” Inu Yasha replied as he drew Tetsusaiga from it’s sheath. “Are you gonna do somethin’ about it?”
“As a matter of fact, I am...” By now, everyone else was busy fighting a demon Sesshomaru had found on the way to see his brother, leaving him & Inu Yasha to themselves. Sesshomaru quickly found himself on top of Inu Yasha, digging his claws that had been dropping with his poison, into his neck as he held him down. He was surprised when Inu Yasha managed to knock him off & rise to his feet as he stood to his own. “Getting stronger little brother?” he smirked.
“No, you’re just getting weaker,” Inu Yasha replied as he brought his hand to his neck. “Hijin Ketsusou!” he screamed as blades from his blood were flung at Sesshomaru.
“Papa?” a small voice said from behind Sesshomaru as he started to move. It wasn’t until he turned & saw Rin on the ground that he realized she had been the one behind him.
“Rin!”
The demon that everyone had been fighting was sucked into Miroku’s wind tunnel after the others got behind him. Kagome turned to see what Sesshomaru had yelled about then gasped, seeing the little girl.
“Oh no,” Kagome whispered as she stared at the demon who held the child in his arms. “Inu Yasha...” But she got no response from Inu Yasha who just stood there, staring in disbelief of what he had just done.
Sesshomaru looked at his brother, his eyes red with blue pupils, his magenta markings getting sharper on his cheeks. “You murdering half-breed,” he growled as he rose to his feet, Rin still in his arms. “I’ll kill you if I can’t find the Tenseiga.”
“Sesshomaru... I... I didn’t mean to,” Inu Yasha said, his voice barely above a whisper. “I didn’t know she would be there.”
“Save it,” Sesshomaru growled, baring his fangs at his brother. “After I’ve buried her unfortunate body, I’m coming back to kill you...” Sesshomaru turned with Rin in his arms & left the area, never looking back to avoid the group seeing the tears that now slowly ran down his cheeks. My Rin, my pup... She’s gone... he thought to himself as a few tears landed with little “plop”s on the child’s lifeless face. He held her body close to his as he walked. I’m so sorry my child... Rest well until I can join you...

-A/N: Okay, don’t kill me!! I wrote this during a VERY bad depression faze that struck me & I was watching my Sesshomaru/Rin tribute on Kazaa so I figured I’d help get over my depression. I wouldn’t normally kill Rin or bring the little sweety any harm, cause I think she’s so adorable, but when I get depressed... well... that’s just not healthy for the ones in my fic... So please don’t kill me!!!-
