The World We Live In {Sesshoumaru x Oc}

Chapter 4

There he stood in front of the doors to the temple's innermost room, the room where the damned monk had probably planned to seal him and to hide the crystal. He smirked. Even the monks had known it was stupid to destroy something so valuable.

He supposed he should be grateful to their stupidity. It would have been safe to destroy it but smarter to hide it. He knew that monk well enough to know what he had done with it. He also knew how to retrieve it.

He slid a final door open and marveled at the sight of it. The bright orb floating in the middle of the room looked like the sun in the sky. With it, he could find the crystal. He stepped toward it, his red eyes almost smiling. He grasped the orb, his dark nails contrasted with the orb.

He sunk his desires into the orb and soon it would become corrupt. The orb began turning black, which indicated he didn't have much time left before it would shatter. A demon touching the sacred white orb was forbidden and was cursed to destroy itself if ever touched by one.

He had no time to waste. His eyes flashed when the image of the crystal slowly began to appear in the depths of his mind. However, it wasn't just the necklace he got a glimpse of. The necklace was attached to something. He gripped the orb a bit hard, ignoring the cracks emitting from his mighty grip. The image became clearer and then he saw a girl. He frowned, deeply when he saw the girl. Her pale skin, blue eyes, her black hair...

Her pale skin, blue eyes, her black hair...

She was one of them...but not from their world.

He scoffed and let his hands sink into the orb, disappearing within it. He had underestimated the monk greatly if that was his plan. Still, he would retrieve it and destroy the girl wearing it. Just thinking about snapping her slender neck brought great pleasure to him.

Finally, his prize was in reach...

Misaki sighed. She almost wanted to go back home and possibly look for a job when she saw the math questions on the board. She didn't recognize any of it and none of it made even the slightest sense. Maybe her future wasn't as bright as she had previously thought. When her math class was finally over she quickly adjourned to the roof for her lunch break. She sat on the empty roof sitting on the floor and leaned against the wall of the entrance. She began to eat her food. She loved eating on the roof. The fresh air did her mind and body some good.

Misaki inhaled deeply as the summer breeze pushed past her, tickling her pale skin, and twirling her long dark hair. It felt refreshing on her skin. She smiled and stretched her arms above her head with a yawn. She was tired. Classes were just about over and she had one more test to take. She wanted to go back to class so she could study some more.

Misaki quickly ate the last of her rice and chicken. Her lunch was simple and always tasty. She cleaned up her bento and stood, dusting herself from any leftover food. As she picked up her bento she stretched once more for good measure.

As she turned to leave from the roof she felt something. Her chest felt extremely warm. Misaki pulled her uniform shirt away from her chest and scowled. She pulled the chain of her necklace so her pendant was laying in her hand. It was white. Well, it had always been white but this was different. It was glowing a bright white light that almost blinded her.

You're mine.

Misaki gasped, quickly turning to look behind her. She only got a glance of something black, like an overstretched arm grabbing her and pulled her, hard. Her feet left the ground and her breath left her as well. Her entire body flew in the opposite direction from the door of the roof.

She felt panic rise as she felt herself being dragged. Then the school was out of sight. Her body flew into a hole. A black hole. There was no light just darkness but she was still being pulled. She felt hands all over her body, covering her in darkness. She was breathless as someone spoke to her.

I finally have you...

"LET GO!" Misaki screamed. A bright light surrounded her body and she heard a loud cry of pain. The hands on her body loosened their grips then vanished. She got a brief glimpse of light then she fell, her head hit something hard.

Her eyesight blurred. Everything became fuzzy until she saw nothing at all. She felt as if her body was made of static. Her heartbeat pounded loudly, echoing in her ears, along with hushed moans of agony. Then the feeling of static coursing through her body drained away until her vision turned black.

He howled in pain as he pulled his hands from the orb. His skin sizzled and smoked. He gritted his teeth as he watched the orbs remaining images before it turned completely black and fell to the ground, shattering into millions of pieces. A smirk appeared on his lips despite the pain. The girl laid on the ground, her eyes shut. She was here. Although it was faint he could feel the crystal.

She was in his world now.

All he had to was retrieve the crystal and the power would be his. His soft chuckle gradually became louder until it was a full-blown laugh echoing off the walls.

The crystal was in his reach. The world-no-all of the worlds might as well be his.
