It was perhaps the fifth of December when Death approached him. He was a boy then, too young to know Death or his works. He greeted it as though it were a man, with a smile and a warm heart. He had no knowledge of what this beings purpose was; he didn’t know that Death had come to claim what he thought could never be taken; his mother, the Lady Izayoi.
He wept for days, even after her funeral. His sobs were carried by the wind to the sea. The sea carried them to the mountains, the mountains to the rivers, the rivers to the trees of the forest, and the trees back to him, until he fell into an utter silence with only his echo to keep him company.
On the days of snow he stood, still, in a barren white desert of misery. This ivory hall of despair was lonely, filled only by the corpses of trees and hills that once stood tall and green in the glorious life of spring. Yet he wished for winter always; for the lonely reality to remain in his vision, and it was so. He was forever caged in his icy dungeon, never to see the accursed sun, or the life giving spring.
Until it returned. Death came to this valley where it seemed he had always been. The white graveyard became colder, and the boy was hard pressed to keep from shivering. He started when Death placed its hand on his shoulder.
Their eyes met and the boy immediately looked away. He knew now what this creature was. How could he not? He had been surrounded by it for what seemed like an eternity. A misplaced happiness filled him; this meeting was bitter-sweet.
How long had he been waiting to see this being once again?
“You’ve finally come back for me?” he asked, his words sliding past his lips like dry water.
The dark one answered in the negative. Their eyes met once again, but this time the boy did not look away. A new kind of defiance smoldered in this young man’s eyes; the passion that shone years before that dreadful night years ago. He stared death in the eyes, avoiding his twisted face, and laughed.
He knew not why he laughed; only that he had every right to do so. The misery was such that all he could do was allow the bubbling brook of sorrow to through his throat in what could only be described as bitter and hollow laughter. It was all he had left in him; it was all that he could feel.
“You hoped that perhaps I would end my own life?” He laughed still, becoming louder as the creature answered negatively once again.
“I have not come to claim you, InuYasha.” The laughter ceased as Death’s voice rang through the clearing. “I have come for something much more valuable.”
InuYasha stood bewildered for a moment. “What could possibly be more valuable to a man than his soul?”
The black shadow of Death had a laugh of its own that sent chills up his spine. “You forget I am not a man. I value your destiny much more than your life.
“You and I are one in the same. You are me and I am you, you will never be able to escape Death, for you cannot escape yourself.”
“Why? Why do you do this to me? Have I wronged you in some past life?”
The creature shrugged. “The moon is my mistress. She demands from you your service, your loyalty, and your love, for her only son.”
“The Moon,” InuYasha whispered to himself. “Did you take my mother by will of the moon?”
The creature nodded. “I did.”
InuYasha burned with anger. “Than she may demand nothing of me, for I have nothing left to give her or her son!”
“You can deny her nothing! She is your mistress as well as mine and you may not defy her!”
“I have no mistress!” InuYasha exclaimed. “I am my own being and no one demands anything of me, especially when they have already taken everything from me.”
“How dare you-“
“Tell your mistress,” InuYasha spat, “that I will give her nothing. If she wants something from me, she will have to take it, as will Death!”
Death laughed darkly. “I suspected this.” He said forebodingly. “If you will not give us what we have asked for than, indeed, we will take it from you.
We shall burn you, InuYasha. You will forever carry our mark upon your flesh. Your hair shall be stained with black whenever the moon hides her face, a symbol of the moon shall be burned on your back and her every phase shall appear as she fattens and wanes. You shall know nothing but the many faces of the moon.”
And so it was, and so it had been, until the Moon’s son came to claim his true mate.
