Love Thus Lost

Sesshomaru sat in his first class, which was Art. Of all things, he sighed to himself and let his cheek fall onto his
fist as he listened to the art teacher ramble.
letting his eyes roam he saw the sepertaion of the group's. The preppy dressed Kids sat at the far end of the classroom, the kids who dressed like they were royality, and had their noese up to high, he wondered how long its take for them to drowned it rained, sat in the back.
He sat by himself at a table in the front, a girl sat two seats away from him.
He let his eyes roam over her second. She wore a white wife beater, and black skater pant's.
Her long brown hair was briaded and laid heavily on her back, she was resting her own cheek on her fist, her face was turned away form him, but he could see the tattoo on her bronze skin.
It made him smirk, girls who could handle tattoo's turned him on, as well as those who could endure pain.
As if sensing him eyes she turned and looked at him. He didn't alter his gaze and stared back at her. she smiled at him, before turning back around and staring at the teacher.
He sighed and began to tap his sharp nails on the table. He sighed and was about to start sining Chicken Huntin in his head when a hand slapped down on his. he examined the hand, with idle bordom.
The fingers were thin and delicate, with medium sized, female nail's and held ring's of all sort's. The bracelettes on her wrists 'clanked' heavily against the table. His eyes slowly followed the arm up to her face and for the first time, he really drank in her feature's.
She had mut gray eyes that blazed with anger and annoycance, her lip's were thin as she frowned slightly at him. her bangs bounced lightly on er forehead as she sighed. She shook her head softly, making the many earrings in her ears 'clink' together as well.
"Will ya mind not doing that?"
Sesshomaru smirked and turne dhis hand in her grasp and wrpaped his long fingers around her thin hand.
"If you wanted to hold my hand, you could have just said so."
He replied arrogently and began to massage the back of her hand with his thumb. She gave him a dry look but didn't remove her hand.
"That was so cheezy, if you want to hit on me, 'boy, learn better pick up line's."
She yanked her hadn away and turned back around, resuming her position as if nothing had ever happened.
Sesshomaru frowned, and sighed. he closed his eyes and began to sing Chiken Huntin softly in his head, imagining a scene where he went crazy and killed everyone in the classroom and kissed the girl next to him, and she complied.
A small smirked played his lip's as he began to tap his nails again. As he predicted her hand, without looking, had smalled down on his again, this time, her small fingers crushed his finger's. He frowned when he herd the bones in his hadn begin to seperate. When she didn't remove her hand he smirked and let it be for the rest of the class.
They sat in silence, neither moving or looking at each other, as their hand's slowly complimented each other, by lacing their finger's.
Sesshomarus eyes never opened and he never stopped singing in his head and Rin never turned to look at him, simply watching the teacher move about the classroom with mild intrest.
~
Azuka and Inuyasha stood in the gym, seeing as it was Monday they had a free day, which confused the teens, cause normally it was Friday that held the free day.
Azuka entertained herself by sitting on the bleachers out side, smoking a cigarette, with her hood up.
Inuyasha entertained himself by sitting next to his sister and watching the student's run around as if they were chickens with their head cut off, chaseing each otehr about and screaming at friend's.
Suddenly both teens looked over when they herd someone approch. Azuka smiled as she saw Pandora sit next to her and light up a ciggarette.
"You guy's bord?"
She asked, taking a puff. Inuyasha went to retalliate when Azuka socked him hard on the leg, causing him to yelp and glare at her.
"What you planning?"
Pandora smirked and held out a box of rello's, Azuka took em, Inuyasha leaning voer her shoulder as she opened em, the smell of weed drifted out like a fan had been inside the tiny package and it was blowing the smell at them, which hit them like a brick wall.
"Hell yeah! I'm bord!"
Inuyasha said, leaning forward to look at the girl. but her face was blocked by her hood.
"Me and a few friends of mine seen you sitting here and decided to invite you to smoke with us, you down?"
She asked, turning to lok at them and Inuyasha saw her face. She was beautiful, he couldn't deny it, but the feline scent of her made his dog lood snarl.
he wouldn't hold it against her though and nodded. Azuka smirked.
"I'll throw down on a few after school, if ya'll wanna come over?"
"Sounds like a plan, c'mon."
The three teens stood up and walked off the bleacher's.
Kagome watched with a frown.
"Well it looks like they joined the Hoods then."
Sango walked up next to kagome.
"Oh well, I'm happy with the group we have now."
"Yeah but... I guess, something about that youkia g9irl though, I don't know... I'm drawn to her."
Sango blinked, then smirked. Kagome squealed in protest and punched the girl lightly in the shoulder.
"Sick! That's sick Sango!"
"You said it, not me."
"So, where do you think they're going?"
Kagome asked, Sango shurgged.
"Lets go find out."
Sango smiled.
~
Inuyasha and Azuka came up to a small forest in the back of the school and followed Pandora to what looked to be a camp site.
A couple couch's and chair's were spread out and a fire was roasting with some cooler's, opened revealing ice and beer.
"Score!"
Inuyasha whispered under his breath, Azuka smirked. their were maybe ten people, all wearing hood's, with em up. Four joints were lit and were being passed around as they walked up.
All the seat's were taken but a seat on the couch where Pandora sat, next to her. Azuka took it. Inuyasha floundered a bit before he felt a hand on his shoulder.
"Hey cutie, if you don't mine me sitting on your lap, you can take the Lazy boy."
Inuyasha turned, fully ready to turn her down, when he saw her.
She had large, forest green eyes, and long black hair that was braided into two braid's over her shoulder's, and her bang framed her face, touching her chin.
Her hoodie was off and wrapped around her hip's revealing a black tank top.
Tight hip huggign jeans witha belt, with a large hoop in the front.
"Ok."
He said, barely contaioning his blush. Azuka snickered at him as she took a joint from Azuka.
Inuyasha sat down in the chair, spreading his leg's as she sat down between them, his hand's rested on his hip's comfortably, she looked over her shoulder at him with a smile. He smiled back.
What the hell could it hurt?
With a gently tug on her hip's, the girl feel back against him. She giggled a little bit and turned her to head to look at him, brining her lip's close to his chin, he looked down at her and arched a brow from under his hood.
"What's your name, angel?"
She smiled.
"Jade."
"Inuyasha."
He quelled the question in her eyes, which lit up to a lighter green when he told his name.
"Jade!"
She looked up, then leaned forward and took a joint from someone and returned to her normal position.
"So... Who are all these people?"
Inuyasha asked Jade as she passed him the joint.
"Well, the two sitting over their, even though to can't se their face's, they're Kohaku and Karran. Karran is a fire Panther demon and Sota is the leader of the Roses little brother."
"Kagome?"
He asked, she nodded.
"She's a real cold hearted bitch."
"I didn't think so when I saw her."
"Of course not, what I mean by cold hearted is that she holds herself higher than everybody else, she thinks she the queen of the school, yet she's alway's being prooved wrong and she takes it out on who ever comes in her path."
Inuyasha rched a brow.
"The four over their,"
She pointed four sitting by a coller of beer's, currently talking about a game called Halo.
"That's Koga, Ginta, Hakkaku and Kohaku. Kohaku is Sango's little brother, she's not as bad as Kagome but her temper is worse. but if you wnt to talk about temper's, you should see Rin's."
Inuyasha looked at them, Koga had long lack hait, Ginta had two toned, black and gray hair. Hakkaku had a gray mowhawk.
"Over their,"
Jade pointed to the left of herself and Inuyasha.
"That's Karran's older sister, Shuran."
She sat by herself, she had ice blue hair which was in a long ponytail. Her ears were pierced from lobe to cartalage.
She wore an ice blue hoodie, and an ice blue skirt.
"Over their, is our leader, Pandora."
Inuyasha nodded and wrpaped his arms slowly around her waist and passed the joint to Shuran, then returned his hand to her trim waist, making her squirm a bit and giggle.
"So enough about them, what about you?"
He asked, purring as he nuzzled her temple. She smiled and closed her eye's, enjoying the feeling of him showing her intrest.
"What do you want to know?"
She asked as he let out the breath he ahd been holding, making the smoke, rol down her shoulder and body, then dissapear.
"How old are you, where do you like to eat, what's your favorite color.... Shit like that."
She giggled.
"Ok, umm... Well I'm 18, I like any take out Chineese or Pizza, pizza is always great. My favorite color is green and black. So seeing as we're playing twenty question's its my turn."
"I don't think you'll have time."
Everyone looked up to see Kagome and Sango. Kohaku quickly, yet casualy threw his hood on and looked down, Sota following suit.
"What the fuck do you want?"
Pandora and Shuran stood up.
"Beat it, Rose, before I skin you alive?"
Pandora hissed, her tail twitching in anger and her claws bared.
"I'd like to see you try something."
Kagome taunted, stepping forward. Suddenly a streat of white crashed into the girl's, and were knocekd over. When they looked up, everyone was gone.
Azuka sat on her knee's, quietly chanting, Pandora made sure, knowing what Azuka was doing, that everyone didn't move and stayed quiet.
"What the hell? Where'd they go?"
Sango asked, getting ready to walk forward when they herd someone calling them.
Azuka smirked.
The girl's sighed, turned and headed back to gym class. Almost as soon as they were gone, Shippou came out of no where, his hood up and his claws in the pocket.
Azuka stood up and opened her eyes and the barrier dropped.
"Nice trick."
Shippou complimented, Azuka smiled.
"Not so bad your self kid."
"I think that's earned you a drink on the house, Azuka.'
Pandora said, smiling and handing her a fitfth of Jack daniel's.
"How long do you guy's usualy stay out hre for?"
"We come her through out the day. As often as wel like, some of us are still in class now. But we all hate gym, think its stupid, so most of us skip that hour."
Shippou answered for Pandora, grabbing a beer and cracking it open.
"So, nobody has yet to find you?"
Pandora waved.
"Of course they have! But with my youkia power's, I'm able to set up tiny barrer's that act like triggers to a trap. So when we feel someone coming, we pack up and hide for a little bit."
"Well, you no longer have to get up and hide."
Azuka said, as she held her hand open, fox fire expolded in it, they seperated into five seperate balls of flame and rushed out in all kinds of directions.
"I just set up barrers that will ward of any human who's not a Hood."
Pandora clapped a hand on her shoulder.
"Would you like to be co-leader with me?"
"Sure."
Azuka answered.
~
The song had ended and now he sat in complete silence. The teacher was called down to the office, leaving the student's to talk and migle as they wanted. He had opened his eyes to see if Rin was in a talking mood when he saw that her head was down and her breathing had slowed down.
So he closed his eyes again, brining him to his current state.
That was, until someone decided then to throw an eraser that he caught, narrowly before it struck Rin in the back of the head, without opening his eyes again, he gently removed his hand from Rin and opened his eyes, standing up.
He found who threw the eraser, it was Neko youkia, who sat with the Black Roses.
Flicking his wrist he chucked it back at her, making her head snaped back a little ast the eraser struck her dead in the forehead.
The Black Roses as well as the Roses stood up.
"Learn your place Hood! How dare you come in here and throw things like you own it!"
Sesshomaru felt like rolling his eyes at the immaturity of the boy who had spoken out. He had long black hair that was braided and fire red eyes.
"Oh, so you mean to tell me, that you own this place?"
"As a matter of fact, doggie, my father own's this school!"
"But you your self, does not, correct?"
Rin felt Sesshomaru move his hand, but refused to join the waking worled just yet, but, figuring that class was over, she let her eyes flutter open. She saw him standing just to her left and blinked.
She pushed her self up and turned to see what he was staring at, she winced slightly when she saw the Black Roses 'and' the Roses, both standing ready to jump on Sesshomaru as if he were nothing but a dol.
Deciding to step in she stood and turned.
"I know your filthy, mouth isn't talking my way, Hiten."
The boy looked over, his eyes flashing something before he smirked.
"Look here, slut-."
That was a sfar as he got before Sesshomaru was in front of him, lifting him above his desk and throwing him into the oppostie wall.
Rin was behind Sesshomaru in an instant when the two group's surrounded him. She pressed her back to him and took a pose.
"You better be ready for this, I can't kick all their ass's by myself."
Sesshomaru smirked and glanced at how many their were, and what their chanses were. He gave the girl credit and said.
"I think we can take them easily."
"Hm-mm."
Everyone looked to see the teacher, looking at everyone under her glasses.
"What, in the seven hells, is going on in MY classroom?"
Hiten pulled himself from the wall and called off th Roses, but the black Roses refused to move.
"Kagora! Naraku! Call off your thug's and SIT down!"
Naraku and Kagora, who had been facing sesshoamru, reluctantly called off their memeber's.
"This isn't over, dog man."
Naraku taunted, pointing at him. Kagora looked at Rin.
"Don't evne think for a second, bitch, we're done here."
Rin smirked, turning to stand next to Sesshomaru.
"You want some of this, Kagora? You could NEVER fuck with the Wicked Shit!"
Sesshomaru's eyes glanced at her, at the familiar sentence. Kagora rolled her eyes, flipped her hair over her shoulder and took her seat, Sesshomaru and Rin making their way back to their seat's.
Once seated, sesshomaru noticed that Rin sat a little closer to him and smirked.
The teacher went on as if nothing had happened.
"So your down with the clown, then?"
Sesshomaru whispered to Rin, she turned and winked at him.
"Ever since I could remember, my older sister, Jade, she's a Hood, listenened to it."
A glare from the teacher quelled their conversation.
When the bell rang, they walked out, but as soon as they were out of the classroom, Kagora took a running start at Rin, who easily evaded and the girl ended up in a trash can. Rin wlaked calmly away, Sesshomaru next to her.
"So, what are you doing after school?"
Rin glanced at Sesshomaru, Kagome and Sago were calling her from the other end of the hall.
she wanted to go out with he demon, she really did.... But her friend's? Would they understand?
Rin smiled.
"Not shit, here, give me a call or something."
She took out her pen and wrote it down on the bakc of his hand, he smiled.
"I will."
Before she could move away, he grabbed her hand and kissed the back of it.
"Till then."
With that he turned and wlaked away, leaving Rin to stare after him.
"Rin! RIN!"
She gasped and turned, biting her lower lip.
"Huh?"
Kagome and Sango were looking at her with accusing glare's.
Rin blushed and crossed her arm's.
"What? Can't a girl check out a god when she see's one?"
"A god huh?"
Sango asked, sucking her teeth. Kagome nodded, likcing her's.
"I think Rin here's been struck with Cupid's arrow!"
"Have you seen his face?!"
"NO!"
Sango and Kagome both said.
"Or did you forget he had his hood up."
Rin blushed.
"Umm.... No."
"You gave him your phone number, didn't you?"
Sango asked, seeing as the pen in Rin's hand and recalling seeing Rin holding the demon's hand, writig something.
"Umm.... No."
Rin said, side stepping her friend's and walking down the hall.
"Come back here Rin!"
Rin squealed and ran down the hall, Kagome and Sango giving chase.
~Lunch~
Azuka and Inuyasha, so far had, had all the same classes together, and were so sick of each other, they were ready to throw the other out of the school and disembowl them.
Azuka currently had sat down with her lunch, and watched, almost pissed off, as Inuyasha played with his food. She was about to comment when Sesshomaru sat down.
Azuka's attention was immeditaly taken.
"So, Seshomaru, have a girl friend yet?"
Sesshomaru glanced at her, as he shoved some pasta in his mouth.
He stared at her, then swallowed.
"I think I might, why, have you?"
"Oh yeah! Azuka found this girl named Pandora! I think they hit it off pretty well, not to mention this Kagome chick, you should have herd what she said!! 'Their's something about that girl... She strikes me different' or something."
Azuka was fuming, how dare that innsolent little pup make a mockery of her! Sesshomaru smirked, shoving some pasta in his mouth. Around it, he spoke.
"You giving up on guy's?"
He asked a small smirk playing his lip's. Azuka turned to him, her eye's blazing, and began to glow a lightl baby blue, her hair sprining up around her.
"Fuck off."
She whispered, the growl around her voice pratically consuming her words.
Suddenly Inuyasha choked, gaining the attention of his sibling's. A smirk played Sesshomaru's lip's as a girl came up behind Inuyasha and wrpaped her arms aorund his shoulder, whispering into his ear, he could only imagine what she said, as the boy's face turned red under his hood.
"Jade..."
He said, blushing harder. The girl giggled and plopped down next to him, and pulled a bag out of her hoodie.
She pulled out a container fo something, a bottle of what looked to be ice tea, and something in tin foil.
Unwrapping the tin foil, thy were met with neatly chopped peices of meat, which, despite being cold, made the demons at the table, eye it with their mouth's watering.
She opened the container of rice and put the meat in, then she tapped the container's side, soon steam began to pour out the container and Azuka felt a tingle of magick.
Grabbing some chop stick's she began to eat. Deciding not to stare, Sesshomaru stuffed more posta in his mouth.
Azuka moved the rice and chicken around her plate, and, with as much as her chop sticks could hold, stuffed that into her mouth.
Inuyasha was already mowing on some instant ramen noodle's, he had stashed somewhere.
Jade saw he was eatin ramen noodle's, with only luke warm water and made a face.
"How can you eat that?"
Inuyasha blinked, wiping his chin.
"Huh?"
"Isn't that cold?"
"No, its stil slightly warm..."
"What'd ya do, heat it up this morning?"
He nodded, she rolled her eyes and took the un-opened tub and tapped the side, she opened the lit, and steam poured out. Inuyasha's mouth watered as he snatched it back and dug in. Jade smiled and took his half eaten one and tapped the side. Steam began to roll out of that one too. She set it back next to him, hoping he's at least let that one cool off.
No chance, as soon as her hand left the tub, Inuyasha snatched it up, having finished with his other.
Sesshomaru reached over and thumped him hard on the head, making the boy choke slightly.
"What the fuck Sesshomaru!?"
Azuka cleared her throat.
"Stop being a pig, Inuyasha."
Inuyasha growled, then went back to eating. Eating at a somewhat normal pace. Jade chuckled to herself and took a bite of her beef 'n rice.
Pandora and the rest of the Hood's sat down around them, some pulling another table up. None of them really talked, more like ate then ventured back out into the wood's, this time, Sesshomaru followed.
~After Lunch~
Sesshomaru felt the world spinning under his feet. Whatever that bitch, Shuran had, he wanted some. That shit knocked him of his ass the moment it took a hit.
He rememebered, he took a normal sized hit and couldn't breath as he coughed. Once he was done though, he complimnented her on the bud and she laughed, nodding and taking three good hit's, trying not to cough, which only last maybe three try's.
Shuran and him smoked a whole, honey blunt to their dome's, while the rest all smoke what they had, or shared.
He had a slight buzz as well, having shared a fifth a Privet Stock, with Azuka, who staggered over every now and then, wraping her arm around his shoulder and placing the bottle in his lap. After taking a few swig's, she leave.
Azuka had herself trashed during lunch, so her and Pandora stayed behind with Jade and Inuyasha, who were all a little tipsy.
He himself was feeling prett fucking good, but he hid his lasp well.
He walked into his History class and took a seat in the back, when someone sat next to him, his slighlty red eyes moved over to see Rin. She smiled, she couldn't see his face, due to his hood, so she didn't see how fucked up he really was.
"Hey."
She said smiling, he nodded back at her, then turned to look out the window, wishing he was outside, instead of trapped inside, let alone, trapped in school.
Rin decided not to ask and watched as Sango, Kagome, and Miroku walk up and sit down next to her and infront of her and Sesshomaru.
Sesshomaru sat next to the window, and in the very back row, so he over looked everyone else.
Sango sat next to Rin, Miroku sat in front of Sango. Kagome sat next to Miroku.
Class went about, pretty boring like, the only thing that really caught his attention was when the Teacher nearly tripped over his desk. Didn't help the old man looked like his eyes were bigger than his head, due to the glasses he wore, nor that he was short.
That got a chuckle out of him, which earned him a heart stopping smile from Rin.
Suddenly, the door to the classroom swung open. Everyone stilled and Sesshomaru had to remove his hood at the sight.
As soon as she stepped into the classroom, the tension level skyrocketed. The teacher gasped and acted as if a pole was suddenly shoved into his spine.
The girl had redish burgendy hair that was done all in little braid's, sorta like ABK. She wore a bananna over her face, and a folded one across her forehead.
She wore a black hoodie and tight blue jean pant's.
Sesshomaru had to smirk, he could just hear 'Bad to the Bone' as she entered, looked around, spoted a seat, in the very back row, clear on the other end of the classroom.
No one moved, no one breathed until she sat down. Then the teacher cleared his throat, gaining everyone's attention immeditally, and class was carried on.
Sesshomaru sent Rin a confused look, she smiled, nodded and leaned over.
"That's Yukina, Haruko. She's the only known person to taunt Naraku in his face and live to tell about it."
Sesshomaru blinked.
"Who's Naraku."
Rin blinked at him for a minute then sighed.
"Your new, so I suppose you havn't herd of him yet. Anyway, Naraku is the richest, most vile person here. He's sick, evil and manipulative. Not much is known about Haruko, all we know is that ever since she came here, her and Naraku havn't gotten along. It all went down at lunch, when Naraku had Kagora trip Haruko, Haruko straight fucked Kagora up! I mean bad! She was in the hospital for week's! This didn't settle with Naraku to well, so he took matters into his own hand's. After school, Naraku pulled his car up next to Haruko and got out. Shit was talked and soon the two were in an all out brawl, cut throat. Neither won, it was more like the cops were called and they had to bounce. Ever since, they hated each other! Over time though, it went from, at each other's throat's to verbal battle's that are bloody, very rare these days do they actually fight."
Rin whispered, glancing from Haruko to the teacher, if either caught her, she'd be in toruble.
Sesshomaru leaned back and put his hood back up, his brain chewing on this new information. He had herd of Naraku, once Kagora was mention. So, the girl and the punk from the art room had beef? Hell, he could fuel that!
Haruko knew the girl at the other end of the class was talking about her. Everyone else might be deaf, but she sure wasn't. She wasn't about to make waves though. She liked to stay to herself, only when it came to Naraku, that rat bastard! That's when her temper flare's to the roof, her control snap's, and she saw RED!
Her burnt ruby eyes cast a lazy drift over the classroom.
Kanna was absent, that was one of Naraku's little lacky's, they also pissed Haruko off, but not as bad as Naraku himself. Kagora also brought her near that point.
Kanna was tolerable though, she didn't talk, but stared allot.
Speaking of starring.... Someone's doing allot of it....
She let her burnt ruby eyes snap to the left, which brought her face to face with a drop dead, breath taking, seriously good looking boy.
Not a spec of her thoguht's, which crashed about in her head, flickered across her face.
Sesshomaru noticed this with intrest, someone had a mask, if not better than his. That alone got him pretty much intrested.
Haruko couldn't tear her gaze from the gold honey eyes that bore into her skull. His face was emotionles, but his eyes gave him away... So much that Haruko knew as soon as their eyes touched that she had gained his intrest. So much that it surprised him.
She smirked, able to draw her gaze away, she turned back to the front, pulled her hood over head, careful of her braid's and bandanna's.
Sesshomaru seemed ot come right out of a trance once she looked away. He may not have seen her face, but her eyes alone, captivated him. They were beautiful, like burnt cherry's. They were hard, yet amused. Amused at people, how they acted, how they conversed and got along, or were at each other's throat's constantly.
He needed to know her, and he needed to know her NOW!
Rin saw all these emotions flicker across Sesshoamru's face in but one look and felt immense jealousy and anger swell inside her because of it.
Haruko left class about two minutes before the bell rang, which had Sesshomaru frowning in agitation. If she left before he got in the hall way, all the other student's scent would have covered her's.
A thought crossed his mind, which made him stare at the wall for a moment.
What if she knew that? What if it was out of habbit to simply leave before the other studetns, so her scent trail was covered. But who could she be hiding from?
Another thought.
She looked like a ninja, maybe she was trained.
Whe the bell rang, Sesshomaru was the first out, having no bag, or anything to collect before leaving.
Once out in the hall he took a deep sniff, she smelled of strawberry's and honey blunts.
He smirked, she was in the girl's bathrom. He then had to sneeze, for all the scent's of the student's struck his nose like a tsunami, it was a wonder he didn't get a headache from it.
Walking down the stair's to the second level, he walked around the coner and waited next to the girl's bathroom door. She walked out no sooner than did he get comfortable.
She stared at him, her eyes never betraying whatever she was thinking, it was a blank stare. She was just simply looking at him. It gave him chill's.
"What do you want?"
Her voice was thick, yet held a sweet feminine tone. He frowned down at her.
"Who are you hiding from?"
Again, no emotion flickered past her eyes as she arched a brow.
"Who am I hiding from?"
Amusment now filled her cherry brown eyes. Almost as soon as he had seen it, anger boiled, brining out the cherry red in her eye's. The color seemed to be alive, and swirled in the depth's.
"I hide from no one, I chop the throat's of those who dare question me. You are no different."
From out of no where, a hatchet was placed against his throat, the cold metal sending another chill down his spine. How was this human able to move faster than his eye?
"Now, now, Haru-san, violence is futile."
The girl before him tensed audiably, he herd some of her muscles snap. Her eyes were now completely red as she slowly turned her head.
With the slight distraction he tensed to quickly move away when her blood red eyes snapped back on him.
"Don't move, or I'll chop your throat right now."
Sesshomaru snarled and jumped back, leaving the girl to straighten and spin to meet the boy who spoke.
Sesshomaru reconized this boy as Naraku.
"Who the fuck do you think you are intrupting me? You fucking prick!"
With that she leapt forward, Naraku's eye's widened slighlty as he could only watch as her hatchet came hurtling towards him.
Suddenly it was jerked to a stop. Both, Haruko and Naraku followed the pale, femine hand up to see a face, darkened by her hood, her fang's bared in an annoied snarl.
Her silver mane fell out from under the hood. Behind her Inuyasha, Pandora and Jade stood, wide eyed.
Naraku felt a twist in his heart and a tug at his soul. Something about this woman made him quiver slightly in the knee's.
Haruko was not so impressed, with a hard yank the hatchet was free form the demon's grasp.
"Fucking youkia!! I'm so sick of all the fucking youkia in this damn school!"
Azuka, without a second thought, back handed the girl, making her leap into the air, spun and land on her back.
She quickly stood up, holding her fractured jaw.
"Fucking bitch!"
She didn't wince and let her arm drop. Sesshomaru was impressed, she was a hard bitch.
Azuka cracked her finger's, her eyes glowing a bright blue under the hood.
Azuka couldn't control herself, the girl was about to sever something of HER'S! That boy was HER'S! How DARE that HUMAN touch what is HERS!!!
Haruko wasn't impressed by the pain or the strike the youkia delt. She cracked her own knuckle's.
"You want some bitch! Once I'm done with you! I'm going to gut that pig behind you!!"
Naraku frowned and shot forward, but before he could reach the smirking girl, he was thrown back into some locker's, knocking a few off the higne's. He blacked out for a moment, but when he opened his eye's, he saw the mystery girl and Haruko going at it like wild dog's.
They were wrestling, punching, bitig and ripping. Blood was already staning the walls next to them and the carpet.
The human's had already gathered to watch with horror struck faces, none of them could speak or blink, total horror and surprise.
Sesshomaru however watched th fight with a demon eye. Two female's fighting, both eminating enough youki to set the carpet ablaze under them.
Snarl's, growl's and grunts echoed down the silent hall's. The only sound's herd. That and the slight splash of blood every now and then, when it hit the wall.
Soon both female's were facing each other, panting, growling and shaking from rage and pain. Glaring at each other, not moving from each other's spot's.
Sesshomaru knew what happened. Azuka had gotten to far into the fight to come back, and Haruko was so blood dazed that she wasn't even thinking, simply acting on instinc.
Naraku sat watching, mystafied, the women were fighting over him, who ever won, got to do what ever they wanted to him, he had no say. It was the silent rule's of this fight. When female's fought like this, and a male is involved, its always the rule.
Haruko didn't know what was going on, but she was loving the power, the strength, the speed and the pain endurance! What ever was pumping through her vein's, she was more than obligated to test it out on this youkia bitch who dare to interfear with her beat down on Naraku!
Suddenly two people stood between the two.
Seshoamru wanted to roll his eyes, Naraku wanted to laugh and everyone else looked at them as if they were crazy.
Inuyasha faced Azuka and Pandora faced Haruko.
"Knock it off, bitch."
Inuyash snarled. Sesshomaru slapped his forehead and turned around, not wanting to see his sister rip the pup limb from limb.
"Stop it Haru-san, this is scool, you could get the cops called on you."
Both girl's looked as if they were shocked. Then, the shock slowly melted into deadly glare's, which promised a world of hurt if they didn't move.
They were obvious.
Inuyasha snorted.
"You don't scare me with your petty little glare's, Azuka. I know your weakness."
Azuka's temper dropped faster than a snow ball in hell.
Pandora glared hard.
"I'm not afraid to fuck you up, girl. I control time, I could have you fucked up in two second's flat if I but wished it."
Haruko's anger metled with the realization to the girl's words. Haruko knew the Hood leader had the powers of time, hell, she prooved it every chance she got.
Everyone all gasped and looked at the two who stepped between two, blood crazed demon's, female's, at that. And survive.
Azuka snorted, and stood up right, cocked her hip to the side, placed a hand on it while running a hand through her hair, closed her eyes and sticking up her nose, she smiled.
"Like I'd waste my time on this pathetic excuses for a fire demon? Highly doubtful."
She cracked an eye to guage the girl's reation and found her simply staring at her.
Azuka blinked and droeppd her pose to blink, almost owlishly at her.
"You put up a good fight, youkia. I think I'd enjoy sparing with you one of these time's."
Azuka smirked and folded her arm's.
"My power is Sight, and I see good things for me in the future, like me kicking your sorry pup ass all over my back yard."
Haruko stomped her foot like an infant and snarled, her muscle's snapping taunt and her youki sparked and crackled around her.
It was then that it hit Sesshomaru, like a ton of brick's.
If she was human, how did she have youki?
It wasn't possible, she had no scent of youkia blood, their was no way... Unless their was a soul. Digging deeper, Seshoumaru used his power, Knowledge.
Whatever the cool headed prince read, it stuck with him to heart. He's been able to do it, ever since he was two week's old. He had the whole Dog Constituion to heart, simply by reading the wall's in the Great hall, while wondering as a pup. He had memorized all the great Dog's of history, when he was ten, finding his father's scroll's that he had left out.
Now, recalling a legend about a girl with a youkia spirit came to mind.
Looking the girl over and looking through her human spirit that stood out around her, he saw a fox spirit. A flicker of it made his heart skip a beat. It was Azuka's spirit. But how was that possible?
His eyes widened, their was no way that, that human girl was born with his sister's already whole spirit.
His eyes narrowed, he'd have to look this up.... How it missed his kowledge, was past him. But he had to find out.
Haruko felt the soul around her flash again in the back of her mind, feeding her emotion's and whispering in her ear's, telling her to react, telling her to kill.... But her human spirit rose against it, like it did on occasion's that were to serious for this time and age.
She had to be somewhat descent in school! The cop's were to much of a problem.. To many Question's that she didn't want to answer.
Reluctantly, the fox spirit submitted, but not with a curse of revenge.
But wen Azuka made her comment about her being a pup, and her kicking Haruko's ass, that had the fox spirit slam into all of Haruko's barrier's and take almost complete control, so much that her feature's change in the slightest.
She felt a tug at her heart and took a chance to glance at the dog demon behind her.
He was staring at her, in surprise and admiration. She felt another tug at her heart, but the fox spirirt screamed against it, and made her lunge at Azuka once more.
Azuka easily dodged by leaping back, Haruko going crazy before her, lashing out every chance she got.
As she moved easily out of the female's strike's, she noticed how much Haruko acted like herself when lost in anger.
Her eyes widened, everything about Haruko right now could pass of as her's. She smelled the same, growled and hissed the same, and her youkia felt the same. It was like she was battling her younger self.
Azuka quickly disabled Haruko, as if she'd known the girl her whole life and knew exactly what to use, when to use it and how to exacute it.
Haruko suddenly found hersle face down in the blood stained carpet.
The word Blood echoed in her head for a moment, and the fox spirit was gone.
All the pain from her wound's struk her at once, and she hissed in pain, tears gathering a bit in her eye's. When the demon spirit wasn't present, she felt like a nomral human. Like pain didn't feel like a tingle, or an itch. It felt like it should, pain. Raw, white hot pain.
And with the demon above her, twisting her arm around, didn't help, now the leg she had bent, to where her foot nearly touched her head.
Inuyasha looked at the awkward, and funny pose, and snorted, then broke down and laughed his ass off. Pandora, and Jade joined in, while Sesshoamru merely closed his eye in silent laughter. A small smile tugging at the corner of his mouth.
Haruko's face turned red with anger and she nearly broke Azuka's hold, but the fox spirit had left her with normal human strength, meaning the youkia above her, easily held her in place.
Azuka was surprised she had to hardly use her inhuman strength to hold the girl in place, who was radiating so much anger.
Her eye brows lifted into her hair line as she stared down at the girl in wonder.
Everything about her now, screamed human! Their was no trace of youki-no wait... Their was, a very, very small flicker, hidden behind the girl's spirit. But it was their. But other than that, the girl was completely human now.
"What are you?"
Azuka asked so sudenly that everyone around, cast their eyes on her. Even Sesshomaru.
Haruko was confused for a moment, then it hit her that the girl was a youkia, of course she'd sense the youkia's presence in her soul.
She wanted to smack herself.
"Why should I tell you? You just up and attacked me."
"You tried to attack what is mine. You deserve death, for all I care."
Naraku looked at the girl in confusion. How dare that delious slip of a female, call him her's.
His normally stoic red eye's were clouded with thought.
"Your's? You call that disgusting pig your's?! Girl you have more problem's than I thought."
Azuka's anger rose again, her youki and hair rising was proof enough for that.
Haruko snickered at the rise she got out of the female and changed her stance to an arrogent relaxed pose.
"Girl, your treding on thin ice as it is, answer my question, your worthless pup!"
Haruko's hair rose at this and she snarled, the youkia in her flared back to life, changin her appearnce in a flash, then back to her normal human state.
Realization flickered in Azuka's eyes, she had meant to bring the youkia sprit back, she caught a glimps of the youkia the last time, now she caught the full image.
The youkia was her, it was the peice of spirit that was torn from her since she was ten. It was just a small peice, small enough for her to miss its presence until resently.
"Who has cast such a spell on you?"
Auzka asked, her voice changing to the language of the dog's. Her question came out as nothing but a 'huff'.
Haruko found herself answering in the smae language, before she could stop herself. It was more like the youkia echoed it in her head and her lip's and vocal cords word at their own accord.
"I know not of such spell caster."
She replied back with a short, soft bark. Azuka's eyes narrowed.
Her vocal cords readjusted and she spoke in human tongue.
"I wish to learn more about you girl, try to live long enough for me to realize that goal."
Haruko's temper flashed again.
"Don't think I'm gonna let you get away with this youkia!"
Sesshoamru was suddenly before her and she gasped, taking a step back.
"W-what do you want, dog? Get outta my face!"
She snarled punching him in the chest, Sesshoamru narrowly caught it, but his slip didn't cross his face.
Haruko was confused, their was no emotion what so ever on his face, his eyes, his mouth, his eye brow's... Nothing gave him away.
Suddenly he ripped her bandanna down and kissed her, she gasped through her nose and pulled back slightly, hardly offering refusment as her eyes widened.
Her finger's twitched at her side, not sure if she should beat him into a pulp, or pull him closer.
Her upper body had leaned a little more away, making him wrap an arm around her middle.
Azuka turned away from the sight to stare at Naraku, she let out a frustrated breath, sweeping her claws through her bang's, she flashed him a toothy grin.
"So, what's up?"
He looked at her in confusion for a moment, then smriked.
"Indeed."
He said, blinking slowly, before standing up.
Sesshomaru didn't know what possesed him, but he had to taste her. He had to.
Something about this strong willed, over-bearing, hot-headed, girl. Made his stomach knot and his blood heat.
He puelld away from the kiss, full ready to apologize, his lip's opened to deliver his words, but her hand suddenly snapped against the back of his head and she pulled him roughly against her, wraping one hand around his waist, setting just above his ass as she pulled his groin roughly against her own. Sesshoumaru's youkia instincs roared at him to take her, make her his own.
Then the flash of a female with dark brown eyes and long black hair, smiling, made him freeze in the girl's captivating arm's.
Haruko felt his tension and the mood slipped away. Telling herself she failed in keeping herslef in check and roughly shoved him away, making him land hard on his ass. She yanked her bandanna up before anyone could see her face and snarled.
"Mother fucker! How dare you touch me!!"
She screamed, turned and stormed off.
Azuka arched a brow at her brother.
"Well, as they say Sesshomaru. Nothing's more terrifying than a woman's wrath. So what have you learned?"
Sesshoamru's mask slipped back over his face, with a death-dealing glare, he turned and walked away.
Azuka snorted and turned to Naraku.
"So, you smoke bud?"
The boy smirked and offered his arm.
"Lead the way."
She smirked and looped her arm around his.
She tapped into her metnal power's and silently asked Pandora if she could show him thier spot. Pandora didn't like Naraku, but if Azuka wanted some alone time with him, fine. She could do that.
Go for it, but make sure, befre he see's it that he'll never go their unless with you.
Azuka nodded and reassured her friend that all would be well.
