Sara
Name: Sara "woman who loved Sesshoumaru"
Race: Originally Human
Description (spoilers!): In this quaint little seaside town, a girl is dying. This would be Sara, the titular "woman who loved Sesshoumaru". She decides to play herself a funeral tune on her flute, but as she does so, Inuyasha walks by her house. She recognizes him! As that guy! With the thing! And then she dies. A little while later, she appears before Sesshoumaru, flute and all. She informs him that she has the ability to make all his desires a reality. Sesshoumaru doesn't buy it, so blows her off. Immediately after he became an amputee, he wasn't feeling too happy, so wandered around causing random homicide for a while, muttering about Tessaiga. Sara thought this was pretty cool. Her dad didn't. So, in order to protect his daughter, he sent a bunch of riflemen after the already wounded dog. Sesshoumaru defeated them easily, deflecting all their bullets back at them with his whip. Later, Sara's father burned up in a fire, cause unknown.
He returns to the tree where he had laid injured after he lost his arm, and where Sara first saw him. She relates to him the whole story from above, but Sesshoumaru still doesn't care. It turns out that Sara pulled an Onigumo when she died, selling her soul to demons in order to regain life as one, and therefore be with her beloved.
Evenually Sara encountered the Inu gang and after deciving them and causing some haovic she steals the Tessaiga. Thinking that Sesshomaru would surly love her now that she got the coveted sword.
Inuyasha shows up at that moment, lashing out at his brother and the she-thief. Sesshoumaru nails him with Toukijin, but Inuyasha retaliates with his Hijin Kessou attack. The attack misses Sesshoumaru, but slices one of Sara's hands off. Out of her injured arm come demons that ensnare Inuyasha.
Sesshoumaru intervenes, apparently he's the only one allowed to pick on his little brother. He slices Sara in half, and she turns into an oni, spewing demons all over the place. Sesshoumaru hacks away at them, but to no avail. A sword like Toukijin, born of hate, can do nothing to this kind of demon.
Well, good thing Tessaiga's there! Sesshoumaru grips the sword, which still rejects him with its barrier. He deals with it and draws the sword, anyway, willing it to transform this one instant. He pelts Sara with a Kaze no Kizu, slaying the demons within her. The sword then goes flying out of his hand, leaving a serious burn on his palm.
Inuyasha reclaims his sword and finishes off the rest of the demons. Sesshoumaru kneels over the pile of dust that is the remains of Sara, and sticks the flute in it as a grave marker, telling her to continue playing that flute in the next world as well.
