Chapter 13
Sesshomaru reached the shore of the lake in no time, followed by Rin and
Jaken who descended from the sky, safely seated on Ah-Un�s back. He knew that
his brother�s group was following closely behind from all the
ruckus they caused and he couldn�t care less: he didn�t need them anymore now
that he knew precisely where the one he was looking for was. The remaining
question was what was she up to, and from what he could tell she could as well
be engaged in a fight as in a meal. He needed to assess the situation
thoroughly, to understand what exactly was going on, before determining if he
had to intervene or not. The hanyou would have to stay out of his path or learn
the hard way that it was a bad idea to meddle with his business.
As he paused to examine the calm expanse of water before him, delicately
sniffing the air to confirm what his nose told him moments ago, he absently
overheard his half-brother as he arrived and addressed the strangely-clad miko,
who was still perched atop his broad back.
�Hey, Kagome! What the fuck are we
doing here! There is no youkai around; the place is as peaceful and deserted as
can be!� he shouted.
Sango, Miroku and Kagome looked at each other, in despair over
Inuyasha�s hopeless lack of spiritual powers. The young dog hanyou had never
been able to sense demonic auras, contrarily to them, and they always wondered
how he managed to survive all these years in the dangerous wilderness without
this ability. His nose had to be extremely sensitive, or he wouldn�t have
lasted past childhood.
Sesshomaru�s immobile form tensed as the ominous youki came closer to
them. Out of the corner of his eyes he saw the monk, youkai-slayer and miko as
they turned to face the lake when suddenly a thin black form shot out from the
middle of the lake, heading toward the sky at high speed. The humans� eyesight
was too poor to clearly see details, but even at that distance the taiyoukai
could distinguish the fiercely glowing golden eyes of his former travelling
companion. He saw her twist in mid-air as she turned her body in her ascension
to face the water, as she was about to reach the peak of her momentum before
she would plummet down toward the surface. He recognized the intense
concentration on her face, the focus that betrayed that she was about to direct
her energies at her concealed enemy. However, as trained to control his
emotions as he might be, Sesshomaru�s lips parted slightly when whatever
pursued Kitana emerged out of the water, a huge mouth widely open upon what
could only be described as an enormous ball of light, effectively stopping the
attack she was preparing to unleash. His composure was that of a terribly bored
person, but his opened lips sharply drew a breath that betrayed his growing
anxiety.
--
As the demon once again stopped her retreat, his fangs opening on his
terrible mouth, Kitana decided it was time to stop fleeing and start
counter-attacking. Calling for the help of her living armor, she felt her claws
elongating and sharpening as she prepared to strike at the scales of the
monster. Dodging his attack with a fast dive, she plunged toward his throat and
delivered a brutal blow with her claws, a blow that should have opened a gaping
wound in the flesh of the thing; except that it did not.
A painful jolt travelled all along her forearm up to her shoulder and
she would have screamed had she had air in what she used for lungs. She did not
have time to process what just happened as another attack was sent her way,
sending her into another dive for safety. Closely following the coils of the
humongous body, she descended about midway between his head and tail before
trying once again to sink her claws in the beast. And again and again, to no
avail: the hide of the thing was so exceptionally solid that her arms were now
in tremendous pain from the repetitive shocks against the unbreakable matter.
She had to move once more, as the beast finally found her and came at her,
letting go of a snarl that sounded more like an explosion underwater.
While taking great care never to place herself in the line of sight of
the creature, she persistently tried to find an opening in his armoured skin.
She hid beside a coil of the monster�s body and tried another approach, sliding
her claws in-between two scales, trying to reach the flesh. To her irritation,
she only met with another row of scales, tiny and dense, that covered the space
between each larger scale. This demon was protected by armor so strong that she
couldn�t conceive what enemy made it necessary. What kind of foe had claws or
fangs so formidable they pushed such a monster to develop such an enduring
hide? It was unimaginable.
She had to move once again when the beast tried to crush her between the
coils of his huge body, but this time she did not manage to evade his sight and
hide again. No matter how she plunged or turned, no matter if she hid beside or
underneath his body, her enemy had learned of her tricks and was now countering
them efficiently. She was desperate for a solution, and only one possibility
appeared in her mind. If the beast did not give her enough time to use her
powers, she would create that time.
Leading the thing deeply into the lake, snaking around and under its
coils, she made sure that the head was following her. She did her best to make
a knot of the serpentine beast, to entangle him within himself, before suddenly
turning toward the surface and heading up with as much speed as she could
obtain.
She summoned what was left of her meager powers and tried to focus while
she swam. Then, as she pierced the surface and went flying into the air, she
turned around to face the lake, channelling the energy of surrounding water and
air into her, preparing to release it right into the flesh of her enemy.
However, once again the cunning beast surprised her. He had freed himself of the
knots easily, charging after her, and at the last moment, when she thought she
would be victorious, when she was about to rip the heart and brain and flesh of
the monster with a vicious energetic attack, she lost. For what came out of the
lake was not the beast, but a huge ball of pure energy contained between his
opened jaws, an energy so wicked that she shivered at the thought of touching
it, let alone be engulfed into it.
Kitana barely had the time to redirect her focus before the attack was
hurled toward her. As she dived back in the lake, a large unnatural wave rose
between her enemy and her, replacing her as a target for the fatal attack. The
huge energy ball vaporized the water instantly on contact, but was also
dispersed at the same moment, creating a deep mist upon which the sunlight
danced and drew ephemeral rainbows.
--
�No way!� shouted Inuyasha, recognizing the creature that was now
plunging back underwater, following closely behind its prey. �I killed the darn
thing months ago!�
�Ryukotsusei? How can it be?� said
Sango, disbelief in her eyes.
�It has the jewel shard!� added a distraught Kagome.
Sesshomaru intervened, never letting his gaze falter from the now foggy
surface of the lake.
�Don�t be stupid, hanyou. Dragons do not come back to life. It is just
another one.�
�Feh, another one maybe but equipped with a jewel shard, Sesshomaru! So
give me some space and I�ll blast it. At least if I catch it by surprise we may
have more luck than the darn girl and get out of here alive,� Inuyasha said, unsheathing
his Tetsusaiga and calling forth its powers.
--
Underwater, the battle continued. The dragon seemed to be completely
enraged and he did his best to grab the annoying creature that dared to enter
his domain. His movements were fast and precise, and Kitana was desperate. She
found out that despite her weariness, she could somehow predict his moves by
reading the vibrations in the water, in a way similar to how she saw the heat
waves emitted by living beings. Every muscle that the giant dragon had to
contract when coming in on her would make the water pulse, sending her a
message and she could swiftly move out of the way. The attack he sent her at
the surface would have been difficult, if not impossible to endure and she
certainly did not want to see it coming at her again. While trying to decide
what to do, she took utmost care to always stay close to the dragon�s body,
hoping that he would avoid blasting himself in an attempt to destroy her. To
increase her chances, she never stayed long at the same place, whirling all
around his body. However, this strategy had a major downfall, for it would
never allow her to stay immobile long enough to concentrate and gather energy
for any kind of offensive move. She wanted to spank herself for taking on such a
powerful adversary right when she so desperately needed to feed. Even if she
could take the time to focus, her attacks would be weakened by her lack of
vital energy.
--
�Sit boy! Sit sit SIT!� screamed an irate
Kagome. �Can�t you see how the water is moving over there? Kitana is certainly
not dead, and I won't allow you to sacrifice her, you are-�
�Miko.�
Kagome was stopped in her ranting by the imperative tone of the
taiyoukai. He rarely addressed her directly and even though she did not feared
him as much as in their first meetings, he was certainly one to respect. She
gulped before slowly turning toward him and met his stern amber eyes.
�Where is the shard?�
She blinked. This was usually Inuyasha�s question, and it was weird to
hear it coming from his loathed half-brother. However Kagome knew something had
to be done, not only to retrieve the shard but also to help Kitana, and the
brutal attacks of her hanyou companion were not suited to the situation. They
needed a little more... delicacy.
�Well, I did not see it for very long-� the golden eyes of the dog
youkai reduced to slits upon hearing these words �- but I am almost sure it is
somewhere in-between the arms. Yes, that�s it. I think that�s where the heart
is, or at least it was there on Ryukotsusei��
Having heard what he needed to know, Sesshomaru took flight. He surveyed
the waters below him with an intense concentration, trying to distinguish the
two protagonists who were now furiously agitating the once calm waters of the
great lake.
--
Kitana felt his presence in the air above from the depths of the lake. Sesshomaru. So he had come, she thought. Once again, he
would be the witness of her humiliation.
The dragon felt her distraction as she looked to the surface, and his
human mask smirked maliciously. She would have been easy to catch at that
precise moment, but he enjoyed playing with his preys more than anything.
Suddenly, he abandoned his pestering little toy and leapt forward at great
speed, eager to destroy whatever was more important to her than their fight.
Quickly understanding her enemy�s move, she followed. Powerful strokes
of her legs and tail propelled her toward the surface, in a race against death
itself.
--
Sesshomaru felt the attack coming straight at him. How stupid could this
dragon be if he thought that he, a great dog demon, son of the unrivalled dog
general, would be harmed or worse, turn tail in face of such an evident and
avoidable attack? As he prepared himself to cut through the offending beast
with his Tokijin, the most unexpected thing happened. Instead of having the
dragon jumping right at him, it was Kitana who blasted out of the lake toward
him. The beast followed her closely though, but somehow she managed to push him
away from them with the help of a strong, deep wave of water that she directed
at his flank. As the dragon crashed back in the lake, roaring in frustration,
Sesshomaru caught Kitana with his fur pelt and gathered her at his side.
Their eyes met, furious golden eyes clashing with exhausted black and
yellow ones.
�There is a jewel shard near his heart. You won�t survive if you-�
His words were cut short as the dragon retaliated by hurling the tip of
his tail directly at them. Sesshomaru jumped back higher in the air, but while
he did so he lost his contact with Kitana. As she fell back toward the lake,
the terrible head of the dragon emerged under her and a huge clawed hand caught
her body in a powerful grasp. A victorious snarl and a laugh left the mouths of
the beast, accompanied by a terrible look of agony on Kitana�s face. She was
caught so tightly in the dragon�s grip that her ribs snapped under the
pressure; her claws and fangs could do nothing to free her, her useless tail
was whipping at a stone-solid skin. Her rejoicing enemy dragged her underwater.
Sesshomaru didn�t wait for an instant before reacting; his blood-enemy
would not insult his family further by snatching what he considered his almost
possession right from underneath his nose. He had important matters to discuss
with her and she needed to be alive for that purpose. Unsheathing his Tokijin,
he followed them into the lake at a great speed, and in an instant he was
underwater. His vision blurred by the millions of tiny bubbles created when the
huge body of the dragon re-entered the water, he was caught off guard by a
powerful blow from the monster and was sent forcefully away from his enemy and
his comrade. Angered by the audacity of the beast who thought that he could get
rid of a dog demon that easily, he strongly pushed against the waters, combining
his youki cloud with all the strength he had in his tights, determined to make
the creature pay. However, he was not a marine creature at all and even if he
could hold his breath for a long time, he soon realized that his armor, swords
and pelt only hindered his movements.
--
The dragon was having a very good time. Granted he was at first
irritated by the presence of an enemy in his very own lake, but finally it
became an occasion to test the strength that this shard was supposed to give
him. According to the demon who approached him carefully a week ago, perched on
a large feather and hiding her face behind a fan of some sort, he should be the
strongest creature of all times with this tiny shard and yes, he felt powerful.
Now, with the unexpected but welcomed arrival of the dog demon, he could
finally kill two birds with one stone. The honor of his family, lost when his
cousin was defeated by a dog not only once but twice, would be regained and all
would see how strong he really was right now. The great beast adjusted his grip
on the black creature in his hand and gave some time to the dog demon to
realize just how stupid it was to enter an enemy�s territory unprepared, and
then he struck.
--
Sesshomaru clearly saw the huge head coming at him and braced himself,
his Tokijin emitting waves of its malevolent youki, ready to blast the
offending creature in tiny pieces. However, once again things did not go as
planned. The water slowed his movements so much that when the attack came at him, his sword only slipped on the scales of the muzzle and
he lost his grip over his weapon that sank into the deep lake. Deprived of his
weapon of choice, immersed in a hostile environment that rendered his usual
poisonous attacks useless, and faced with a powerful enemy who was turning
around to strike at him once again, he took the only decision that was
available to him at the moment.
His released youki flared around him in an improbable underwater inferno
and a vivid crimson invaded his golden eyes under its influence. Sesshomaru
could feel all of his teeth elongating, his molars turning into a row of sharp
fangs, the corners of his mouth extending to reach his ears and his fur pelt
merging with the fur that now adorned his whole body. The enormous white dog
that he became, although crippled with the loss of a foreleg, pushed against
the water with his hind legs and shot right at the dragon, viciously grabbing
the short arm that kept Kitana captive between his jaws and shaking it in a
very canine way.
--
The dragon let out a scream of pain that travelled through the water and
echoed to the furthest corners of the huge lake. The attack had been totally
unexpected and in his surprise he relinquished his hold over his capture to
redirect his attention to the youkai that was now challenging him. What begun
as a playful bashing of insignificant insects was becoming much more serious
now, as the details of the well-known story of how his cousin was destroyed by
a similar dog demon came to his mind. However, that particular dog demon that
was focused on ripping the dragon�s arm from his body in a curious imitation of
his own handicap was now immersed in the dragon�s favorite playground, and he
would soon be a much drowned dog. Smirking, the dragon swiftly coiled himself
around the muscular body of the dog, ignoring the sting of his fangs upon his
arm. The cur would have no strength left in him to bite in a few moments. A
cruel smirk came to his humanoid figure as his scaled face liked its lips in
anticipation.
--
Kitana shook herself out of her confusion as she fell toward the bottom
of the lake, freed from the deadly grasp of her foe. She couldn�t believe what
she saw, and she kept replaying the transformation in her mind until it became
real. She clearly saw Sesshomaru change form, right before her very eyes, and
if she was right he was now battling against the beast in the form of a great
white furry animal. An animal that did not look aquatic in the slightest, but
didn�t seem to care about that detail at all. This world would never cease to
amaze her.
With her broken ribs and deeply bruised and torn muscles, Kitana was not
much of an opponent, but when she saw above her the mortal coils of the dragon
tighten around Sesshomaru�s struggling form, she took a decision. It would have
to work, or they both would be in a lot of trouble. She shot after them, taking
advantage of the distraction of the snake-like beast to go for his head.
--
Sesshomaru was doing his best not to allow too much air to leave his
lungs but the pressure he was under was immense. His enemy was strong, the
power of the jewel shard added to his natural abilities, and fighting
underwater was clearly not to his advantage. In his rage he tried to claw and
bite at the folds of the beast, to no avail. In a faraway corner of his mind,
his admiration for his father grew a little; knowing the dog general succeeded
to plung one of his claw in the hide of a similar
demon fuelled his desire to fight back, but he had to be realistic. He was not
his father. For him, the only way out of this trap would be to return to his
smaller humanoid form, but his fury and rage were so great that his youki
couldn�t be refrained and called back at the moment. All he could do was
struggle while his enemy rejoiced in his helpless state, his double set of eyes
connected with the taiyoukai�s.
Black stars started to cloud his vision when he caught sight of Kitana,
who was swimming furiously toward the head. As he was about to loose
consciousness, he saw her plunging toward the immense red eye on the left side of
the dragon�s head, terrible claws ready to strike; a smile almost graced his
furry, canine lips when the targeted eye exploded in a burst of scarlet liquid.
As the immense power that kept him captive withdrew, Sesshomaru transformed
back in his humanoid form and saw the dragon sinking to the bottom of the lake,
trashing madly in his pain. His lungs were screaming for air and as much as he
wanted to give in to their plea, he knew he would never reach the surface in
time.
--
Once again, Kitana pushed her body to move, fighting against the bursts
of pain that the contraction of each and every muscle of her body brought to
her. She swam to her unexpected helper, who was now in a state not much better
than her own, and quickly assessed his condition. She saw his golden eyes loose
their sharpness and start to rotate inward; he was clearly loosing
consciousness out of lack of oxygen. Without thinking, she quickly extracted
the so-needed oxygen from her last breath of water, and putting her mouth in
contact with his, she breathed the air into him.
Sesshomaru�s eyes blasted open as the oxygen reached his brain. Kitana
was there, by his side, embracing him tightly and kissing him. Not a kiss, he
corrected himself. She was helping him to breathe. And he was suddenly grateful
for that, despite his previous anger at her reckless behavior.
She wasted no time. As soon as Sesshomaru�s eyes opened, she brought him
closer to her and was about to swim toward the surface when he extended his
arm, pointing at the pitch black bottom of the lake that had swallowed the
dragon. Following his gesture, her eyes caught a slight glimmer of light
reflected on the blade of the Tokijin; the sword had ended its descent upon the
edge of a jagged rock, halfway between the surface and the bottom of the lake.
At the same time, she also detected the heat emitted by the beast underneath
them, who was far from dead. The dragon was completely enraged and soon he
would forget his pain and come for revenge. She brought her attention back to
Sesshomaru and shook her head from side to side, refusing to endanger them any
further for the retrieval of a mere sword. Securing her hold onto the dog
demon�s hurtful body, she once again forced her battered self to move despite
her injuries, and the smooth, fluid movements of her hips, legs and tail soon
propelled them both toward the surface. They reached the so-needed air in the
middle of the lake and Sesshomaru tried to speak. She did not let him.
�I know what to do, Angelus. Now go-�
She did not have time to finish her sentence as a huge energy blast from
the dragon was hurled directly at them from the depths. The taiyoukai grabbed
her by the waist and summoned all his remaining energies to send them upward on
his cloud of youki. He felt the immense power of the beast brush against his
own demonic aura, but they were unscathed. However, the head itself followed
the blast out of the water, and the jaws where closing in on them at a great
speed.
�It�s okay. Let go of me.� Kitana firmly pushed Sesshomaru away from her,
freeing herself and turning as she fell toward the dragon. In a delighted hiss,
he closed his jaws upon her lithe form and let his body fall back in his
element.
Stunned, the taiyoukai looked impassively at the lake below him. No
emotion could be seen on his pale face, but he was in turmoil inside. Was he
assisting to the last attempt of Kitana to leave this world? An
attempt that would very likely be successful? He knew this could happen
when he let her run away from him after his humiliation on the riverbed, he
knew she had no reasons to fight to stay alive. He knew, but he never wanted to
believe it.
Then anger overcame this realization, anger directed once again at the
foreign creature. How dare she ignore his heroic efforts to save her, how dare
she brush all that with the back of her hand and plunge right into death, with
no regards for the immense honor she had been granted when he fought for her
survival? Never before had he gone to such extreme ways to help someone. His
primal, selfish motivations for helping her did not matter. Days before he took
the decision that he needed her alive and at his side, for only she could
remove these abominable images from his head, and he would let no one disregard
one of his decisions.
Just as he was about to plunge back underwater to retrieve the offending
female and give her the punishment she deserved for
belittling him, a huge shadow came at high speed toward the surface of the
lake. He just had the time to move out of the way when the dragon shot out of
the water, screaming in pain. His short arms were clawing at his chest and his
smell, once similar to leather covered with fish scent, was intermingled with
the rich, coppery aromas of blood. Just as Sesshomaru started wondering where
this scent was coming from, the great beast vomited a large quantity of the
crimson liquid, vividly tinting the waters around him. He then fell back in the
lake and started to swim wildly, directly toward the shore where Rin and
Inuyasha�s group were standing.
Sesshomaru moved forward faster that the eye could see and distanced the
dragon. Just as he reached the beach, making sure that Ah-Un brought Rin away
from there, the beast was there. Towering above them, his tortured features
frozen in a mask of agony, the dragon let out a last roar and fell forward,
sending a panicked monk, miko, hanyou and youkai slayer flying across the
beach.
Sesshomaru did not falter as the great beast fell almost right at his
feet, as he clearly heard the last beat from its huge heart moments before. He
was in pain, something that he hadn�t felt in many months, and he would
certainly not waste his energies at moving recklessly when he was in no true
danger.
Giving no attention at all to the head of the dragon, he walked unfazed
toward the upper chest of the beast that lied across the sandy beach. He could
hear strange sounds coming from there, and as he came closer he saw that the
ribcage over the heart was moving, as if something was pushing against it from
the inside. Cocking his head to the side, he looked curiously as finally the
bones and skin cracked and burst open, giving way to a very bloody, tired and
hurt Kitana.
Catching her breath while lying on her back, her feet pointed toward the
body of her slain enemy, she tilted her head backward to face Sesshomaru�s
dripping wet, immobile form, standing above her.
�I� don�t want to� hear a single� word about� being born again�� she
whispered as she panted for air, exhausted. A small smirk reached the taiyoukai
lips as he watched his companion slowly lick her lips, and then bring a hand to
her mouth, eagerly cleaning it from the blood that covered every finger and
knuckle. Her other hand fell open on the sand, revealing the presence of a
tainted jewel shard.
--
Inuyasha and his friends couldn�t believe their eyes: Sesshomaru, the
very same Sesshomaru who cared for no one but himself, was clearly trying to
help Kitana in her fight against the giant dragon. They watched speechlessly as
he plunged in the water, following after the beast had captured her.
�What the fuck is he doing?�
�Inuyasha, mind your language. There are kids here.�
Kagome didn�t want to express her anguish any further with the young Rin
amongst them; after all, adults were supposed to be the strong ones around
children so the little ones would always have someone to rely on in stressful
events. It was hard, however, as her concern for Kitana was growing
exponentially as her time spent underwater increased; and now that the
taiyoukai had followed underneath the surface, she was also having thoughts
about how to announce to a young girl that her beloved Lord Sesshomaru had
died. What would happen to the child in that case, she wondered.
A humming sound then reached their ears and Kagome turned around, to see
the little Rin seated sideway upon Ah-Un saddle, balancing her legs while she
softly hummed a happy tune.
�Do not worry, Kagome-sama. Kitana-sama and Sesshomaru-sama are very
strong, and they are great fighters. They will come back as soon as they are
done with the dragon,� said the young child with confidence.
�Rin-chan� You know Kitana? How?� asked a very curious Kagome.
�Oh yes I do. Rin knows Kitana very well. We all travel together, and
she plays with Rin and with Lord Sesshomaru a lot! Since she arrived my Lord
has a friend to play with, but she left us a little while ago. It is nice
having her back with us, isn�t it right master Jaken?�
Jaken was looking at the lake with panicked eyes, firmly grasping his
staff of two heads in his small hands as he focused on the terrible fate that
was to be his after his master�s death.
�Argh, stupid human child! Don�t you see that our
great Lord Sesshomaru will be destroyed just because of this insufferable
wench? Don�t you see that I will be all alone by myself with him forever gone?
Oh, cruel world, what will I do now that Lord Sesshomaru has faltered and
perished?�
The bright laugh of the girl resonated into everyone�s ears, very
displaced in the dramatic events of the afternoon, but also soothing them and
reducing somewhat their anxiety.
�Don�t be silly, master Jaken. Lord
Sesshomaru always returns.�
Kagome�s curiosity was fuelled even more by the child�s words, but she
did not have time to ask other questions. Her friend Sango gasped as before
their eyes, Sesshomaru and Kitana had just reached the surface, before being
once again attacked by the monstrous beast. This time though, things did not
look good at all as while they tried to fly away from their attacker, Kitana
fell and was swallowed by a very smug looking dragon.
�Stupid bastard! I told him only my
backlash-wave could beat this thing, and of course he doesn�t listen one bit!
Serves him right,� said Inuyasha, as he rested himself against his Tetsusaiga,
planted in the sand. He eyed Kagome carefully though, he was just done cleaning
himself from the grains of sand that covered his face and even entered his
clothes. He certainly did not fancy having to do it all over again.
Kagome did not have time to react though, as the giant dragon emerged
from the lake in tremendous pain, only to dash forward right to them. Miroku
started undoing the prayer beads that sealed his wind tunnel, but he did not
need it. As Sesshomaru reached the shore and Ah-Un took flight with his ward on
his back, Inuyasha grabbed Kagome and Shippo and Kirara did the same with Sango
and Miroku, and they all jumped hastily inside the woods at the end of the
beach. Everyone surprisingly managed to get out of the way of the dying beast
as it crashed on the sand.
In the forest, Inuyasha carefully unfurled his arms that were protecting
Kagome. Stunned, she turned her large blue eyes toward him and smiled when she
realized that once again, he had saved her life. And as she heard the muffled,
infuriated screams of the little Shippo who was caught between them, she smiled
even wider. Her eyes caught sight of Miroku and Sango, with a small Kirara on
her right shoulder, who were clumsily walking toward them in the dense woods.
The friends regrouped and, after making sure that no one was hurt, they
carefully approached the huge form of the once glorious beast, eager to find
out the cause of its demise.
--
Kitana froze as she recognized the energies of the approaching party:
Kagome, Miroku and their weird group. A feeling of dread came to her as she
understood the implications and she wished she could simply disappear from the
scene. Sesshomaru would demand explanations, and those guys would certainly not
keep their mouths shot. Apparently, she had just jumped from the cauldron into
the frying pan.
