(Sesshomaru's POV)
The daiyoukai lands gracefully on the damp Earth, diminishing his barrier as he strides across the wet ground of the rain soaked human village.
"Myoga." He calls; his emotionless voice is barely over a whisper.
"Could that be?!" A bright voice chirps, the owner nowhere to be found. The flea has not seen his master's first born son in months let alone actually spoken to him. The flea's eyes shine at the possibility of tasting the youkai's blood and dives for Sesshomaru's cheek.
"I do not have the patience for this." Sesshomaru glares at the now squished flea in between his fingers. Myoga didn't make it anywhere near the lord's face before his reflexes kicked in.
"O-Of course, umm." He clears his throat nervously. "How may I be of service, lord Sesshomaru?"
He responds by tossing the hanyou he had been dragging behind him in front.
"Master Inuyasha! What has happened? Is he dead?!"
"No." Sesshomaru answers bluntly. "I do believe he has been attacked by an Anjuv parasitic plant."
"Oh no, this is terrible! I-"
"What shall we do?"
"U-umm." The flea pauses as he noticed the "heartless" Inu-youkai had just used the word WE. "Get rags and fresh water from the well. I'll go get Kaede from the hut. And I'll also fetch the monk and demon slayer to bring him inside."
"Very well." He surprises Myoga by taking the commands so easily. Turning to do what he is told; he moves at a nonchalant pace that's neither stalled nor rushed. Five minutes later, he finds his self entering the old lady's hut, unannounced of course.
"Sesshomaru!" Kaede calls from a corner where she is mixing medical herbs fervently. His eyes scan the little room and he takes notice of Inuyasha laying on a padded cot; still covered in blood and dirt. 'Where are his comrades?' As if reading his mind, the old priestess speaks up.
"Sango and Miroku have gone to her old village to visit her father's grave. So…I need your assistance." She adds hesitantly.
'My help, hnn? This Sesshomaru. Help Inuyasha? I obviously have no inclination to but…why does the idea not disgust me the way I know it would have in the past? I do not want to…but I'm not completely offended by the idea. I know what you want me to do father but I've done more than enough.' He makes up his mind to leave but mid-step Tenseiga stops him by pulsing. 'Tenseiga you want me to save Inuyasha?' The lord takes a good look at his half-brother. 'What is this? I can't see the other world creatures like the ones when I saved Rin. Am I supposed to actually care for him?...'
"Get out." He commands, finally breaking the strained silence.
"Excuse me?" Kaede's one, uncovered eye widens in shock.
"Do not make me repeat myself miko."
Although she was offended and pissed beyond belief, the old woman knew better than to argue with the fearsome dog demon. As soon as Kaede exits the room, Sesshomaru removes his mokomoko and swords. Placing them against the wall he kneels next to Inuyasha, his eyes narrow as he fights his internal battle. 'Let's get this over with.' He gets to work with first cleaning Inuyasha's wounds. After he pulls down his kimono and hakama, he uses the wash cloth and rinses away the dried blood and filth from his face, neck, chest, and arms. The clear water quickly becomes tainted red and he has to make two trips to the well before the first task is complete. Now that he can see his wounds clearly he wastes no time in rubbing the medical mixture on the wounded areas.
'Now what? What can counter this level of poison? The fool should not even be alive right now.'
"Nnnngh~! Nngh! Mmmph!"
He looks down and watches as Inuyasha whimpers and sweats in desperation. His demon blood is obviously fighting to keep him alive. The daiyoukai places a soft hand on the hanyou's cheek before putting a cool rag on his forehead.'His blood is boiling. At this rate he won't make it past sun-down.' Sesshomaru watches on for five more minutes as his little brother jerks and twitches, having mini seizures before a thought occurs to him.
'I'll use my poison! My poison is much stronger than this. I'll give him a dose of my own poison which shall overpower and eliminate the Anjuv's. Then I'll fix it with my antidote…but how much will prove to be too lethal? I might end up killing him…it is a risk that must be taken.' He grabs Inuyasha's wrist and slowly sinks his claws into the vein in his wrist.
"NYAAAH!" The Inu-hanyou gasps out in pain as acidic poison shoots through his system. "AAARGH! NNNGH!' Sesshomaru watches intently for what seems like hours. Watching Inuyasha scream, writhe, and pant in pain before he finally lays still. His eyes examine him as he notices his breathing even out and his skin feels much cooler. 'Now!'
His hand slides under Inuyasha's head, tangling in his wet hair as his other arm wraps around his torso, pulling him halfway on his lap. He exposes his neck by pulling his head back by his hair. Bearing his fangs, he sinks them into the vein in his brother's neck. The antidote to his poison leaks out of his fangs into the bloodstream of the hanyou. 'That should do it.' He places him down carefully before gathering his belongings.
Kaede jumps to her feet as the demon finally exits her hut after hours of Kami knows what. "Sessh—'
"I have done everything in my power.' He interrupts curtly, not bothering to stop walking as he speaks." If he dies, thank his weak human blood and do NOT contact me."
"Do you not wish to know whether he survives or not?"
He completely ignores her as he disappears into the forest. He spears a scrutinizing gaze at the stars. 'Are you satisfied, Otosan?"
(Inuyasha's POV)
'What? Where am I?...open your eyes baka.' His gold eyes flutter open, taking his own advice. 'Kaede's? How did I—' thoughts of the stupid cactus plant floods his mind. 'Keh! But how did I get here?'
"Inuyasha, you're awake?!' He watches as a familiar demon-slayer enters the room with a tray holding a bowl of soup.
"Sango, what happened to me?"
"You were attacked by an Anjuv plant. You've been out for two days."
"Oh. Two days? Kuso." He decided to use his common sense and assume an "Anjuv plant" is that yellow/purple weed. "How did you guys find me?"
"We didn't…"
"Then who?"
"Umm…well…" He notes her hesitation and knows he's not going to like what she has to say next.
"Well?" He prompts pushing his self to a sitting position despite the pain.
"Sesshomaru found you—"
"Nani?!"
"And brought you here—"
"Nani?!"
"And nursed you back to health." She finishes.
"NANI?!" 'What the hell?! That bastard of all people?! Why?! Oh, Kami. His scent. I can smell it now. I should have picked up on it earlier. His scent is all over me. Oh Kami, I can't breathe, I'm suffocating… wait! What is this?' His fingers trace his neck before stopping at the two puncture wounds. 'It's as if… as if… as if he-"
"BITE MEEEE! AAAAAAAAAHHHH!"
People stop and stare at Kaede's hut as startled crows fly out of the trees behind the hut.
