Ebony and Blue 

Prompt: Mirage

-----



Five centuries....five long centuries he endured with his madness and emotions locked away, he held on by a thread and he would have held on longer till the hallucinations began. 


It started simply one day, driving to work a flash of ebony and midnight blue flashed in the corner of his eye from the sidewalk, it awoke his beast in an instant and the struggle to keep him locked almost caused a wreck. He was able to control him but the fact he had awoken after so long and because of ebony and blue had him slightly shaken. She was long dead he thought, his beasts five century slumber was the cause of him thinking her so....a human...a mate and soul mate lost to time, his beast gave up and slumbered leaving him to silence and loneliness. Sesshoumaru looked at his hands as they shook from the force of what had just happened, he took a deep breath.


"Mate....go to her!" The beast snarled and caused the Inu to flinch form the voice of his inner self he hadn't heard in so long.


"Its not her.....she's long dead" the Inu tried to reason with the voice within.


"It is her...no reincarnation or look alike, now go!" Beast snarled.


He ignored him....he couldn't believe that it was really her.


For two whole months he fought with the beast after countless flashes, countless mirages of ebony and blue in town...each time it became harder and harder to reason with himself, harder and harder to forget what happened last time he imagined her.


Then it happened... he had truly lost all sanity that day he thought, he was seeing a ghost. The silence of his beast only made him feel like she really was a ghost. She stood before him her radiant smile lit up her features, her white sundress with his house emblem gracing the top of her chest, her locks of ebony and blue flowing in the wind as cherry blossoms danced around her....yes she was truly a beautiful spectre....a goddess in her own right. 


He was about to turn and let himself become lost in his madness lost in the memory of his soul mate till he heard a voice from a distant memory.


"Hello Sesshoumaru" 

Golden eyes widened in surprise as his beast purred happily at the sound of her voice. "Kagome" His voice came out a mere whisper.

Kagome cocked her head exposing her neck, Sesshoumaru hitched a breath his mark in clear view.

"I missed you my love" Kagome smiled and held her arms out. Before he knew it he had pulled her into a crushing embrace and buried his nose in the crook of her neck breathing in her scent. 

"My Kagome.....I've missed you" 

As the two embraced their souls danced in joy at being reunited, beast howled happily at the return of its mate.
