When they reached the doors of the temple, Sesshomaru dropped InuYasha onto the ground in front of the open passage. He stood over him, standing between InuYasha and freedom.
“Enter the temple.” Sesshomaru said coldly, crossing his arms in front of his chest in an attempt to look intimidating.
Had InuYasha been anyone else, he would have feared him. “What, no ‘please?’ No, ‘I’m sorry for dragging to this strange place when all I had to do was ask you to come with me?’ Honestly, Sesshomaru, you really need to work on your people skills.”
InuYasha stood and walked towards the doors. He scanned the walls as they arched high, towards a vaulted ceiling. The doors were decorated with various phases of the moon, while the center of the chamber floor was engraved with the same symbols that were upon his back; all the phases of the moon circling a blood red full moon wrapped in a dark, pine green vine adorned with bloodied thorns. How he wished he could truly wrap that vine around Her throat.
“Why did you bring me here? Are you one of Her servants? A slave to her perhaps? Really, Sesshomaru, I thought you were better than that.” InuYasha turned to face him and smiled. “Did She send you for me, Sesshy? Is she going to make you kill me?” Sesshomaru sighed. “No, InuYasha, I am not one of Her servants, She did not send me to kill you, you are not going to die. You have committed a terrible crime and you need to be punished for it.”
InuYasha looked confused. “If you are not one of Her servants then why did you bring me here of all places?”
“Because, I am Her son.”
InuYasha blanched. Sesshomaru?! Sesshomaru was the son of the Moon? He looked sidelong and chewed his lower lip nervously. He had to get out of there, He had to get away from this place before Sesshomaru found out who he was and who his damn mother expected InuYasha to be to him.
“I can tell by your nervous demeanor that you see your error in confessing to the murder of all those innocent people, so I ask you, are you ready to receive your punishment?” InuYasha hung his head. “Will I be able to leave afterwards?”
“Yes. Perhaps when all this unpleasantness is done and gone you and I can become more acquainted with one another.”
“No, this is as acquainted with you as I would like to be, I think.”
Sesshomaru nodded slowly, sadly. “Very well. Go and sit in the Stellation and wait. I will return for you when it is over.” Sesshomaru closed the doors behind him when he walked out. InuYasha sat in the center of the large moon and waited, though for what he wasn’t sure.
He was sorely tempted to simply ‘punish’ himself. Maybe if he hurt himself enough Sesshomaru would think he had been punished and just let him go! With this thought in mind, he began to carve into himself with is claws, causing blood to pool underneath him. He could no longer fell the pain of this. He had been doing this to himself for years, simply to reassure himself that he was not, in fact burning in Hell. This was the sight that greeted the Moon’s eyes when she came upon him.
“What in the name of the Gods are you doing to yourself, child!” She cried, The blood on the floor running underneath Her feet.
“Punishing myself. You know, just thought I’d save you the trouble.” InuYasha replied as he continued to hack into his skin.
“Why on Earth would I maim the body of my son’s mate?” She asked. “I can’t expect him to make love to someone whom I’ve dismembered That would be wrong of me. Besides, I needn’t inflict physical pain upon you. You’ve harmed yourself enough mentally and physically.”
InuYasha’s arms fell to his sides, his head hanging in sorrow and defeat. “So, how exactly do you plan on punishing me then?”
“I thought I would leave that to Sesshomaru. Will you place go and get him for me?”
“I’m not one of your servants. You can’t order me to do anything.”
“I didn’t order you, InuYasha.” She smiled softly. “I asked.”
“The answer’s still ‘no.’”
She sighed. “Fine.”
She waved Her hand and the doors opened revealing a patiently waiting Sesshomaru standing in the aperture. He entered, flinching when he saw the wounds on InuYasha’s body. When he stood before Her he kneeled.
“You summoned me, Mother?”
She smiled lovingly at Her son. “I did. I wish for your council, my son.” She motioned for him to rise. “Tell me, how should we punish this naughty puppy?”
Sesshomaru looked perplexed. “I do not understand, did you not already punish him?”
She sighed. “No, my child, I’m afraid he has done this to himself.”
Sesshomaru look at InuYasha, a dismayed expression upon his visage. He knelt down at InuYasha’s side, cupping his cheeks within his hands. “Why? Why did you do this to your beautiful body, InuYasha?”
InuYasha didn’t look at him. He didn’t want to hear Sesshomaru’s concern. He didn’t want to see the worry on his perfect face, and he never wanted to know that Sesshomaru thought he was beautiful. It wasn’t fair. This wasn’t how it was supposed to be. This wasn’t what he wanted.
He lifted up his blood-soaked hands and removed Sesshomaru’s from his face. “Just do what you’re going to do to me and let me go so that I can get on with my life.”
Sesshomaru stood and turned to his mother. “Please, let me take him home. He has punished himself enough. It is obvious that he is troubled and I don’t think punishing him further will achieve whatever it was you were planning to accomplish.”
The Goddess nodded. “Of course, Sesshomaru, if that is what you think is best, you may take him.” She smiled down at him softly.
InuYasha stood, his eyes burning with anger. “No! I’m not going anywhere with anyone! You take my mother from me, you make my life a living Hell, and now you expect me to just jump and go wherever the fuck you tell me to go!?” His eyes began to water. “Why me? What did I do to deserve having everything I’ve ever cared about ripped away from me when I had only just begun to live; everyone I loved? What have I done to warrant the suffering which you have caused me?” The tears fell freely now. “I’m sick of it! I’m sick of everything you’ve put me through. I’m tired of being afraid to get close to someone, to love someone because I fear what you will do to them if I do.
“I want my own life. I want to make my own choices. I want to be able to go where I want to go, see what I want to see, live where I want to live without having to perpetually look over my shoulder and wonder when it will all be ripped away! I want- I want- damn it! I don’t know what I want, but I don’t want this! I don’t want to be bound to someone I don’t love for the rest of my life, but I don’t want to eternally suffer for not allowing such a bond.”
He fell to his knees before Her, a pleading look upon his tear-soaked face. “Please, please, just let it end. I don’t care what you do to me, kill me if you must, but I beg you release from the bonds you’ve put upon me. End my suffering, I beg of you!”
The Goddess shook her head. “I will not. I cannot allow you to simply fall into the arms of another, You are much too important, InuYasha.”
Sesshomaru looked at his mother questioningly. “I don’t understand. What is going on, who are you binding him to?”
She turned to face her son. “This beautiful child that kneels before me begging for death and release in all his tear-soaked, blood-stained glory, is going to be the most important person in your life, Sesshomaru.”
“Why? Who is he to me?”
“Sesshomaru, InuYasha is you mate.”
“….He fainted…”
“Yes, child, I can see that.”
