Into The Heart Of The Past

By Sesshomaru'sMistress

Chapter one

They are fighting once more, and over the same sword the Tetusaiga another sword made from their father's fang. Even though Sesshomaru knows that the sword is made to seal Inuyasha's demonic side he still fights for it. Inuyasha never questions why he fights for the sword all he believes is that Sesshomaru just wants the sword to become more powerful.

Kagome the miko from the future stood by watching she was curious as too why Sesshomaru would fight for the sword all the time, knowing that with out it Inuyasha would turn into a insane demon killing everything in sight. Beside her were her friends Sango and Miroku they also watched as they fought not once trying to get into the battle that raged on before them.

"Kagome-chan, when are you planning on returning to your time?" Sango asked ignoring the normal fighting between brothers.

Kagome wasn't paying attention to her friends but was contemplating why Sesshomaru would fight so much for just a sword when he already had Toukijin. Kagome's friends tried to get her attention, but were having no luck what so ever. It was when the two appoints stopped fighting did Kagome come back to herself and looked at the worried faces of her friends.

"Hey guys what is wrong?"

"What happen to you Kagome you had us worried?" Sango said

"Oh I'm sorry I was just thinking about something"

Sango was about to ask what she was thinking about when the two brothers began to fight once more, this time Sesshomaru brought out a surprise for Inuyasha. The arm he had cut off with the Tetusaiga was back, and while he used one arm with Toukijin he brought up Tensaiga with his new arm knocking Tetusaiga away from Inuyasha.

Kagome screamed as she watched the sword fly away, everyone knew what was going to happen now that Tetusaiga was no longer with Inuyasha. Kagome knew what she had to do turning to her friends with a look of determination in her eyes.

"Sango, Miroku get to Inuyasha before he transforms, I'll go and find Tetusaiga"

Kagome took off into the forest in search of the sword, she hopped that her friends could get to Inuyasha before one of two things happen, one Sesshomaru kills him, two Inuyasha transforms. Kagome heard the yells of her friends and the growls of a transforming Inuyasha.

Kagome found the Tetusaiga deep within the forest it was impelled deep in the earth, Kagome reached to for the hilt of the sword. When one of her fingers touched the hilt of the sword Kagome cut her finger making it bleed.

"Ouch, dang stupid handle"

She reached for the sword once more ignoring the blood dripping down the hilt, the blood dripped down the hilt and down the guard on to the blade. The Tetusaiga began to pulse and turn a light blue Kagome tried to move her hand, but she found that her hand was stuck to the handle of the sword.

"What is going on?" Kagome said to her self

The blue light began to grow it started to cover her hand, Kagome began to panic she didn't know what was going on and there was no one to save her. The light grew until it covered her whole body; Kagome began to feel an odd sensation through out her body then the most terrible pain. All Kagome could do was scream as her body twisted in and out into something Kagome didn't know what.

Finally the pain and light left Kagome, who was disoriented and confused as to what just happened to her. Remembering why she was there Kagome took the Tetusaiga and ran back to her friends. Kagome however, never made it to her friends Sesshomaru appeared in front of her, Kagome thought that he was there looking for the Tetusaiga she also hopped that her friends were able to get Inuyasha away in time.

Sesshomaru could smell the human wench close by he knew that she was the one to go after the Tetusaiga when it left his half-breed half brother. He found the wench, but she didn't look like she did before, she reminded him of someone.


A young Sesshomaru was running through a lovely garden a smile was shown upon his childish face, there she stood along side his powerful father the one thing in this world that Sesshomaru would protect the one thing that was always there when he had need, His Mother in her gentle beauty, and her gentle smiles.


Sesshomaru shook off the memory before turning to the wench; he drew Tensaiga knowing that Toukijin would just be wasted on a human as weak and mindless as she. Tensaiga met the blade of Tetusaiga in a bight light. Kagome didn't like this the last light she came in contact with caused her great pain, but not this light this one was a gentle caress upon her body.

When the light cleared Kagome opened her eyes to see what happened to Sesshomaru, but found that he was no longer there. Turning around hopping that he wasn't behind her waiting to kill her Kagome found that the forest was a whole lot more dense the she remembered.

"Hello, Sango Miroku?"

Kagome hoped that they'd hear her calls and they'd come and get her so that Inuyasha can have the Tetusaiga back. That's when it occurred to Kagome that she wasn't holding the Tetusaiga anymore. Looking down Kagome found that it didn't look as if anymore has ever walked through here. That's when Kagome heard it a loud growl scaring all the birds for their roosts. Kagome didn't know what was coming, but she knew she didn't want to meet it. Slowly Kagome tried to make her way through the dense forest she looked around her as she walked hopping that any youkai in the area would stay away.

Kagome looked behind her then in front that's when the youkai came out of hiding, he was an ugly bore demon his tusks were brown and looked to have dried blood on them, and drool was hanging from him mouth, his fat belly hung low, so the piece of cloth he used to cover himself wasn't needed. His skin looked like he rolled around in the mud for his bath.

"Now snort time fer snort Katsuro to snort mate" the bore snorted out spraying drool about everywhere.

Kagome was so grossed out that what it said didn't even come into her mind until it made a move to grab her. Screaming Kagome tried running from the bore hopping to find a save place to hid. As Kagome ran she was only paying attention to where the bore was that she didn't see what she ran right into.

He had been patrolling his lands when he smelled the scent of two demons; one was aroused while the other was running in fear. That's what made him go and investigate this rarity. Even the weaker youkai didn't show fear when another youkai was around. Curious as a neko youkai he set off in search of this odd youkai, he traveled through his lands till he came to the border, that's when he felt something or someone hit him.

Kagome looked up to see what she ran into to only gasp in shock standing there looking at her curiously was none other then Sugimi Inuyasha's and Sesshomaru's Father.

"Come out snort come out snort Katsuro won't snort hurt much snort"

Kagome didn't know what to do she was so mortified by that thing that she didn't the only thing that came natural to her, she buried her face into Sugimi's kimono seeking away out of her nightmare. Looking down at the silver/white head that sought his comfort from the bore after her Sugimi did what he thought to be the best thing, taking her in his arms Sugimi left the border of his lands and returned to his palace.

"Milord you have returned early" Said one of his more trusted advisers

"Hiroshi, see to it that this female is taken care of"

"Hai Milord, if I may inquire, are you planning on taking her as your mate?"

"I've said this more than once Hiroshi; I will not have a mate until I feel that I need one!"

"Hai milord"

Sugimi looked down at the women that slept upon his bed, wondering when she had fallen asleep and where she'd come from.
