A Debt

Disclaimer: I don't own the Inuyasha characters, just this approach to a plot that was inspired by YokaiYume's picture Don't Go on DeviantArt.

A gold flower and strip of cloth lay in the miko’s hands.

“Thank you, Sesshoumaru-sama.” It was a breathless whisper, desperate and fragile. Weak.

Momentarily, Sesshoumaru thought to nod, but the miko was less than a footnote in the landscape and completely unworthy of his response. Sesshoumaru elegantly shot into the sky.  He had paid his debt. Nothing more could be done.

As he left, Sesshoumaru’s eyes flickered to the long-lost miko. She had changed. Instead of indecent garb, she wore the red and white miko uniform. Good. At least his brother’s miko wouldn’t bring more shame to his pack.
