My first fic. But I really could care less if you flame me, I just wont read it:) If I get more good reviews than flames, than I will continue to update.

Another thing, I don't want to do the whole disclaimer thing at the beginning of every chapter so here it is. I DON'T OWN INUYASHA THE TV PROGRAMS, MANGA'S OR ANYTHING RELATED TO IT. If anyone out there really really really really really wants me to do that at the beginning of every chapter than I will, but I would rather not.

Another thing, the first 10 chapters of this story are to songs from Billy Joel's album called River of Dreams I DON'T OWN ANY OF THE SONGS USED IN THIS FAN FICTION. I will name the songs at the beginning of every chapter but there is the disclaimer. If you don't like this music, tuff cookies! I found this CD in a box and thought it would go great for a fan fic.

Okay, there was my soap box moment. Now on to the story. :)

The golden orbs of Sesshomaru's eyes stared out of the tall window of his study. The rain warped the moonlight, creating streaks down his cheeks. He looked like he had been crying. The shadow of a raindrop ran from the corner of his eyes downwards until it fell off his chin and went down the starched white shirt that he wore. It went over his hand and down the side of the coffee cup he was holding. There it stopped, over top of the ring on his left hand. Sesshomaru watched the wind tear at the trees, attempting to rip them from the ground. A flash of lightening lit up the room and caused Sesshomaru's shadow to grow to a tremendous size. Slowly Sesshomaru's eyes moved until they rested on a CD player on the desk next to him. The quiet left him unnerved. He reached out a hand and began to flip through the CD case, trying to find something suitable for such an important man to listen to. Nothing in the case interested him until he came to the last CD. It was River of Dreams by Billy Joel (surprise surprise) Sesshomaru pulled it from the holder and silently walked over to the CD player, as he slipped it in and pressed play, he was careful to make sure to turn the volume down. As the rock music began to reach his ears he sat down in the large chair behind the desk and turned it so he was looking out the window. He leaned back and closed his eyes.

I've see those big machines come rolling through the quiet pine / Blue suits and bankers with their Volvos and their valentines /

Sesshomaru's brow wrinkled as he remembered the days when humans had begun to overtake the demons.

Give us this day our daily discount outlet merchandise / Raise up a multiplex and we will make a sacrifice /

It was sickening to him how the humans worshiped their money and power. When their lives were only fleeting, mere smudges on the world's history.

Now we're gonna get the big business / Now we're gonna get the real thing / Everbody's all excited about it /

Everybody had been. All of the lesser demons and demon lords thought it was great. More humans, more food, and more living things to control. But then they couldn't hold onto their territory. Lands began to fall under the loud roaring of the machinery. Even Lord Sesshomaru couldn't hold onto all of the western Lands.

Who remembers when it all began- out here in No Man's Land / Before the passed the master plan- out here in No Man's Land / Low supply and high demand- here in No Man's Land /

Not many could. Demons had been destroyed, almost completely killed off as new disease cropped up. And when humans thought that demons were a threat. They killed all of the lesser ones. Only the strongest survived. Or those that could hide well enough not to be found. Sesshomaru chose not to fight. He went into hiding essentially. He hid his demonic features and took up a business. Slowly he worked his way to the top. Now his business was the best of the best.

There ain't much work out here in our consumer power base / No major industry just miles and miles of parking space /

Thoughtfully Sesshomaru opened his eyes and stared once more into the rain. There really wasn't any work here. Even though the politicians claimed big steps forward. The human race was moving backward. Some day demons would once again rule, because humans thought they were invincible, but demons actually were.

This morning's paper said our neighbor's in a cocaine bust / Lots more to read about Lolita a suburban lust /

Human newspapers were useless. Sesshomaru payed people to read them for him and summarize the important details. And all that he got was humans once again trying to kill each other off.

Now we're gonna get the whole story / Now we're gonna be in prime time / Everybody's all excited about it /

That's all that humans cared about, money, position, attention. Nothing that could last.

Who remembers when it all began- out here in No Man's Land / We've just begun to understand- out here in No Man's Land / Low supply and high demand- here in No Man's Land /

Nobody understands. Nobody remembers. No one ever will.

I see these children with their boredom and their vacant stares / God help us all if we're to blame for their unanswered prayers /

Sesshomaru had seen the homeless kids lining the streets. Unwanted, thrown away, and society telling them they were useless. And people said they were making progress.

They roll the sidewalks up at night, this place goes underground / Thanks to the Condo Kings there's cable now in Zombie Town /

When the sun set and the moon rose, when night came, what was left of the demon population went out to hunt. Reverting back to old habits, they stalked and hunted. Normally they avoided killing humans, but sometimes it happened. Thanks to technology, no human was out to late at night.

Now we're gonna get the closed circuit / Now we're gonna get the Top 40 / Now we're gonna get the sports franchise / Now we're gonna get the major attractions /

Some of the stupid humans had tired to persuade the demons that what they were doing was good. Trying to get them on their side. Sesshomaru had almost ten different companies come to his mansion alone to get him to support their cause. Only 8 of them lived to warn others.

Who remembers when it all began- out here in No Man's Land / Before the whole world was in our hands- out here in No Man's Land / Low supply and high demand- here in No Man's Land /

Sesshomaru took another sip of his coffee as the song ended. Nobody will ever remember the past, how this world began. Even though they think they have the world in their hands, they don't. It is still ruled by those who made it. The demons have been here forever, they are here now, and they will never go away. Sesshomaru smirked as the song came to a close.
