Fallin'

Chapter VII

Prompt: Fallin’ (Stella’s Soundtrack Challenge)

          Sesshomaru called to his little sister, “what are you doing? You know that you’re not supposed to be there.” He asked, approaching the nervous Rin.

          Rin looked up at her big brother, “I can’t find Buyo. I think he went into the well house.” She explained, once more turning her attention to the dark interior of the well house.

          The old building was not somewhere Sesshomaru usually went. Too many of his grandfather’s old relics rested inside and he had no patience for his stories; but seeing the look on his little sister’s face, made him sigh, before sliding open the door further and going down the creaky old stairs.

          “Buyo,” Sesshomaru called out from the bottom step. No response or movement answered his call, Sesshomaru moved further into the darkness and closer to the boarded up old well. A quick movement at his feet, made him let loose a startled shout.

          Rin also let loose a startled shout as Buyo came flying up the stairs and into the house. “Big bro?” She called out tentatively. “Are you okay?”

          Sesshomaru huffed irritably, “I’m fine. Buyo just startled me.” He was about to continue, but a sudden cracking sound made him turn towards the well. Just then the wooden barricade shattered completely and two pale arms shot up and grabbed Sesshomaru and pulled him down into the well.

          The next thing he knew, Sesshomaru was surrounded by a blue light. Then there was the strange feeling of falling. The pale arms had released him at some point. But too soon the falling ended and he landed at the bottom of the well, surrounded by many bones and dirt.
