3rd Person PoV:
Sesshomaru stood beneath the quiet sky, a faint restlessness stirring within him.
Kiara had not returned.
Time meant little to a demon lord, yet tonight every passing moment felt… wrong.
He was about to take flight and search for her himself when a familiar presence brushed against his senses.
Kiara's spiritual power.
His hand moved to the hilt of his sword instantly.
Before he could react further, a blinding light burst into existence before them.
"Ah! What is this?!" Jaken shrieked, shielding his eyes.
Rin covered her face with both hands, peeking through her fingers.
Behind Sesshomaru, Kouta clung tightly to his father's hakama, hiding behind him as the wind howled around them.
The boy squeezed the fabric tightly.
Being close to his father always made the world feel less frightening.
Sesshomaru stood unmoving.
The wind whipped through his long silver hair, yet he did not flinch. His golden eyes narrowed slightly, calmly staring into the blinding glow.
Everyone's hair flew wildly in the storm of spiritual energy.
Everyone's.
Except Jaken's.
Because he didn't have any. ಥ‿ಥ
Soon the light faded.
A small girl appeared where it once shone.
She wore a kimono, her hair tied neatly behind her. Her face was completely blank.
Sesshomaru studied her carefully.
Kiara's scent lingered around the figure.
But it was not her.
'A shikigami…'
"What purpose do you have here?" Sesshomaru asked coldly.
The girl said nothing.
Instead, she drifted forward—straight toward Kouta.
Sesshomaru's sword flashed free from its sheath.
The blade stopped just inches from the girl's face.
She halted midair.
Slowly, she extended her hand.
Jaken puffed up angrily.
"How insolent! To ignore Lord Sesshomaru and approach him so boldly—who do you think you are?!"
The shikigami ignored him entirely.
Its empty gaze remained fixed on Sesshomaru.
Rin tilted her head.
"Lord Sesshomaru… what is she trying to do?"
Sesshomaru's eyes sharpened.
"There is power within her hand."
His voice grew colder.
"The Shikon Jewel."
The shikigami opened her palm.
Several glowing fragments of the Shikon Jewel rested there.
Sesshomaru's gaze darkened.
"Those shards belong to Kiara."
