“Say my Name” --- Destiny’s Child He should have been dead, he was certain of that infinitesimal truth. His half-brother, a mere dirty blood relative had swung his sword to vanquish him from existence. The energy, the life essence of that demon-killing sword had been hungry for him and yet he wasn’t devoured. There were events that were muddled in his mind, foggy and shattered and he was shattered beyond repair. He’d been thrown carelessly in between life and death, that too, he knew as the pricks of unimaginable pain still fluttered through his unnervingly empty mind. There had been no purpose for him in the in between and if he had been allowed to trek forward, he would have been erased from an eternity. Something; however, ripped him from hell. Yanked him like a newborn into existence (minus the kicking and screaming part, of course), but it had been just as traumatic as the only memories of his first death. She'd been the one screaming, her arms flailing as she struggled to stay afloat. The girl was nothing more than a child and a human child at that and his initial reaction had been to let her drown. His undoing was his minuet hesitation. Her thrashing and pleas for help to a boy--another human, were left ignored from the small rowboat she tried so desperately to reach. Silently he waited with baited breath as the boy leaned over the edge, a bored almost blank expression on his face only for the arm to push the screaming child underneath the chilly water instead of a rescue. The action surprised him in a way he was unfamiliar with and after a moment when the water went still, he could feel the iciness of the water as it surrounded him. Instincts pulled at him and he dove for the child, heavy clothing weighing him down. She was dying, fading from him and in that instant he knew he could not allow her to slip away in death. His lungs burned, ached as he reached form her slowly sinking form. His vision blurred as his immaculately kept claws grabbed at her clothing and he yanked her forcibly to him. Worry, it churned in his stomach as he broke through the water’s surface, the soft mud slipping between his toes as he made it to land. He breathed life into her carefully, her blue tinged lips a burst of alarming color from pale skin and the blackest of hair. Swallowed water was coughed and purged from her, soft sobs and greedy gasps for air spilling from her mouth as she clutched him and though he wanted to, he didn’t pull away. Her small form trembled in his like some scared kitten and though it eased his mind, her subconscious marking of property had something coiling tightly in his chest. It wasn’t enough though, he felt as if he needed something more from the human child, that he wanted something concrete. Something permanent. ‘Say my name,’ it was his voice that whispered to him, coaxing him and he didn’t hesitate to repeat it just as softly to the crying child in his arms. “Say my name,” Her sobs stilled upon hearing him and her tiny hands pushed him arms-length away. He stood frozen as her wide blue eyes studied him with intelligence, a simple understanding that a child of her age should not have possessed. A flicker of fear flashed across him and it almost had him retracting his words hoping that whatever she would do weren’t the kind that would destroy him. Her mouth opened and closed, as if she was unsure of what to say and when the confusion lifted from her gaze and she smiled, he knew he was already in too deep. “Sesshomaru,” the name had a familiarity that he couldn’t place, her voice was barely audible. An eerie warmth filled him then and something locked into place in his chest. He felt a piece of his mind attempting to fight against this warmth, this strangeness filling him and the feeling of being trapped swelled in him before disappearing as quickly as it had come. Something in his very soul had been riled up by this human child’s voice, angered by her and now it was merely a shadow of emotion he had no certain grounding on. “Sesshomaru,” he had learned later that the small girl-child’s name was Rin and that it had been her birthday, she was officially six and somehow he was bound to her and he could not ignore the feeling swelling in him that no matter what, he would do anything to protect her. -TBC-
