Chapter 8 - Paradox

" I look back to the shrine and i start o notice that i can't see much inside the yard, its like a protection is activated.... I am so absorbed in this discovery that i didnt hear or smelled him.

- Its a protection spell.

I turn around and all I know is destroyed... it can't be true...."

Here in front of me ,on this tower ,i look at me....its me but not quite the same. Is this the future me or someone who could tale my form?

- I know what you are thinking.. I am you but not the same...

- What are you?

- Not 'what' but who .i am Lord Sesshomaru. The last lord of the western land and you are trespassing on my land.

- If you are Me then this land is also mine.

- No Sesshomaru.... because this is not your time... Follow me and we could discuss in private.

-No

- I didnt ask you ...i ordered you....pup...

The word "pup " just made me take my sword out and as i try to slash at this other Sesshomaru, my sword dissolve in thin air leaving me with empty hand and a tremor of fear for the second time this day.

- Did you actually thought this weak sword will be effective? I have 500 years experience more than you . Now follow me or i will force you. Your choice.

I choose to follow him and as i come closer to him a bubble appears around us and as it disappears i see we changed the location. I am now in a room somewhere high because i see lights and the sky. Everything is weird and the towers are shiny new and the height is bigger than the tallest tree i ever see.

- It is amazing what humans build .

- Humans? I thought ,us , demons, we are the greatest race..

- We had potential but we were blinds. In time humans took control and transformed this world. Sometimes in better and sometimes in worse.

- So why dont we... after all we are more capable then them.

- No we aren't and it doesn't matter now. I am the last demon alive.

- How.....

-My fault to tell the truth... i made mistakes... painful ones....

- Then we have time to rectify.

- Where do you think you are....

- I believe i am in future, am i not? And if you tell me ,i could stop the humans taking control of the world and we could rule again. I just need to change history.

- Ha ha hahahahHa.....you are funny .

- Are you done?

- Possibly......I am Sesshomaru, son of Toga , ruler of Western land , now ruler of Nippon , last of Shiro demons, the last keeper of the Shikon jewel .

- The keeper of the Shikon jewel is that human Kagome and the priestess named Kikyo. How come you have the Shikon.

- I became the keeper because the true keeper of the Shikon was my mate. The human you called is just filth that tried to use it. The Shikon made a choice and decided that i am good enough and is mine ever since.

- You said the true keeper is your mate? And who is your mate?

- My mate was an amazing person, beautiful, capable,caring ,stubborn as hell, the only one i ever loved and.... the one i hurt . ...Inuyasha

- hnnnmmm... Inuyasha is a mistake, a half breed.

As i said the last word a strong force hit me . The pressure is enough to make a normal demon die instantly but i barely keep myself from falling to my knees.. The older me has blue eyes and the markings are a deep purple...

-No, he is perfect...

As he comes closer i see him flexing his claws like he can't wait to strip my flesh from my bones...and he comes and whispers.

- I know you marked him, i feel his mark on his neck and he is with pup. If i was allowed i would have taken him from you a long time ago ,seduced him and i could have made him happy , and i could have ...been happy. But .... you are damn lucky....

- You are crazy...

- Yes i am crazy ever since he is gone..... ever since i kept in my arms my still born pup and i watched my mate die and no amount of wishing on the Shikon jewel could bring him back. While you denigrate him i could worship the ground were he walks...

- Why didnt you used the sword Tenseiga?

- I have no sword with this name. Who made it?

- Totosai made it using a fang from our father and he created Tenseiga and Tessaiga. Tenseiga could heal and bring a person from the brink of death and Tessaiga could kill 100 enemies in one strike. My father deemed fit to give me Tenseiga.

- A sword that could bring back the dead ... my father didnt do other sword but Tessaiga. You had something amazing in your hands... i wish i had one...

- Can i breath now?

- yes... it think is not necessarily to punish you so i will tell you the truth.... of what happened and where you are.

I never took care of my brother so i ignored the problem ,we had fights and every time i left him more dead than alive. After father died i let him to fend for himself and I thought he was the reason for my problems . I didnt know that i was destroying him inside and that he didnt had anyone close to him. When the red moon came we mated and the first think i did was hitting him until he fainted. As we were mated i didnt even tried to understand him, he didnt know anything about demon matings so he thought this is just another punishment. As he was running , he was attacked by a half demon and his mate and the Shikon jewel revealed herself by protecting him. I hurt him because i was foolish and young and i didnt see the signs....the pregnancy was a surprise because i didnt think there is a reason he was my mate...he was a uke.... the most precious beings that the Gods could give me . When i realised my mistakes it was too late because Onigumo already had him in prison ,where he was raped and tortured while the pregnancy made him weak.

I failed him.... He escape eventually by himself and i found him before he died in my arms but our pup was too weak and didnt survived more than one hour.

-I am sorry ....

-The reason i tell you this is because you could learn from my mistakes. Don't do what i did.

- I dont think i can. What you just told me never happened . In my " world or time" , Onigumo or Naraku is already dead and he was killed by Inuyasha with my help and other humans. What you describe never happened.

- Really? That is good , it will be more easy to seduce your mate.

- Why will i do this?

- Look in my eyes and tell me you dont care about your pup.

- My half breed pup....

- Your full breed pup , you idiot . A uke male births only powerful full breed pups. Our grandfather was a uke and gave birth to father. And soon he will need your demon aura to keep the pup and your mate healthy.

-hnnn

- Tell me more about your Inuyasha because i just realised that there are some differences in our life. Somewhere, time took a different path for the two of you or i am mistaken and the Bone eating well is not a time portal but something else.

- How do you know about the well?

-I know about it because i am the one that opened the passage , ten years ago. The Shikon jewel demanded to open this passage and after i succeed , after a week, the priestess named Kagome fallen in the well .
