Sesshoumaru No!

The following is an excerpt of my latest completed story "Absolution's Pursuit," so if you are, or are planning on reading it. Please go no further as the following will be a spoiler!

There was an explosion of light and power, its intensity nearly faltering his advance as he continued to close the distance between them. He soon found her sitting in a desolate circle on the ground, flecks of glittering ash raining down around her. Unconcerned of the remnants of pure energy still crackling in the air, Sesshoumaru rushed into the devastation, capturing the one who caused it and pressing her small body against his own.


She held on for all she was worth, wrapping her arms around him and muttering something unintelligible into his chest.


Feeling angry and possessive and relieved, he tightened his grip, baring his fangs to the demons that still surrounded them. They wouldn’t touch her again! They would never touch her again!


In his right hand, Bakusaiga began to glow. It was time to end this!


Feeling the stir of his youki as it rose and flooded into the sword, Kagome gasped, her eyes instantly drawn to the shimmering blade.


“Sesshoumaru, no!”
