The picture that fell from wall caught Sesshoumarus eye. His eyes gather tears in them. They were safe and that was all that mattered. His love ones were safe. He would never see them again but they were safe. He reached out and picked up the picture. His finger traced over Kagomes face and down the face of their little girl. The picture was taken hours after she was born. In the picture Sesshoumaru and Kagome were looking down at the little girl held protectively in her arms. Tsuki!

Kagome named her Tsuki meaning moon because of the moon on her forehead. Sesshoumaru took in a deep breath only to inhale smoke and cough, but he was able to catch what he wanted. Their scent! Kagomes pure, rainy smell and Tsuki’s innocent rainforest smell. Their smell was all around him under the thick smell of smoke and blood.

They say when you’re about to die you’re life flashes in front of your eyes, and it does. Sesshoumaru felt like he only closed his eyes for a second, but when he opened them he smiled. He saw everything. His mothers loving eyes looking down at him when he was a pup. The tricks he played on his nanny, his first love. Rin! Then when he saw Kagome for the first time in this era, their first date. The first time they ever made love.  All the way from when Tsuki took his first breath, steps, speaking his first word.

He stared up at the flames that surrounded him, preventing him a life with his love and child. They might be able to take him physically but he would always be there in spirit with them. 

“Have you someone to protect?” His father’s words whispered through the smoke. His answer before had been No, but that was years again. “yes father I have someone to protect.” He closed his eyes one more time letting himself get lost in their scent for the last time.
