Falling
Ok, here's the thing, I'm Mika, I'm sixteen, and today was supposed to be the best day of my life. I had a date with the hottest, most popular guy in my school; Sky Jenkins. As I applied my mascara, I though about his tan lean muscles. His dirty, blond hair and leaf green eyes. Adjusting my aqua blue short, shorts, and my jet black tank top I took a look into the mirror.
My waist long, black hair curled at the ends, and my caramel colored skin glowed with health. I wasn't one to be conceited, but I look hot! I looked like one of those Victoria Secret Models, hard bodied yet curvy. I slipped on my shiny new hiking boots, grabbed my overnight bag (I was staying overnight at my friends house) and my purse. As I walked out my room door I heard my mother calling.
"Mika," I rolled my eyes, and headed to her room. My mother was sitting on her bed holding something in her hand. She was the complete opposite of me. She had long, silky blond hair, and bright, blue eyes, a far cry from my raven colored hair, and honey brown eyes. She was still very beautiful. She showed me what she was holding. It was a beautiful, round crystal. It glowed pink.
"Whoa, nice jewel you got there." I said with my usual husky slur. She looked at me and back at the crystal with love in her eyes. She always looked like she loved everything. You could have murdered a thousand kittens and she still look at you with love. "Where'd you get it?" I asked.
Her bell like voice chimed out, "Your father was given this crystal many years ago when he was visiting Japan." She stood to walk over to me and placed the jewel necklace around my neck. "A strange man approached him and gave him this necklace. He told your father that he would need it much later in life. And you know your father; he just had to listen to the man." She walked to my front to see me. She shined with pride; I turned to look at myself in her mirror. I must admit, I was surprised. The crystal seemed to amplify my looks.
It felt so warm and powerful against my skin. I gave my reflection a little smile, and turned to my mother. I gave her a tight hug, "Thanks mom." She chuckled, patted my head and let me leave. Little did I know this was the last time I would ever see her.
. . .
When Sky drove up in his cherry red convertible, I thought that I would faint. He was so sexy; he didn't open the door for me, but I was too excited to care. He drank up my scantily clad body with obvious approval. I blush from the look in his eyes. We didn't talk on the way to the only teen club in the city; Barely Legal. My friends and I would always laugh at how right and very wrong the name was.
I saw a few friends as we were parking. They all gave me thumbs up, and mocked fainting, and kisses. I rolled my eyes and followed Sky into the club. It was packed; young bodies were crushed together, the lights were flashing, and the music was fast and loud. I loved it.
My body immediately started to move with the beat. I raised my arms into the air and swayed to the music, letting the music flow over me. Sky reclined against a wall to watch me dance. I didn't care though. The sexual tension and the smell of sweat took over my senses. I started to move my hips when I felt two strong hands grip them. I looked back to see Sky gyrating with me to the music.
I turned to wrap my arms around his neck, looking deep into his eyes. I could feel the crystal warming against my chest. The strobe lights seemed to become brighter and the music louder. Sky had a confused look on his face. I smiled my most dazzling smile, and rubbed myself against him. I could feel wind blowing my hair back; licking at my skin.
Sky jumped back from me. I was confused, everyone was staring at me. I closed my eyes to clear my head. But when I opened them up again, I was falling.
. . .
When I say falling, I don't mean I tripped or something. I mean that I was flying through the air, plummeting towards the Earth! My hair was blowing around me.
"HOLY SHIT!" I screamed. My mind was racing; this had to be a dream. I calmed down enough to look around. I saw my purse and overnight bag floating a few feet away from me. I swam through the air and grabbed my bags. Holding them to my chest, I looked down. I had to choke down a sob.
All there was beneath me was green trees as far as the eye could see.
"Holy shit! Holy shit!" I yelled in my head. Is this how it is going to end? The perfect day is now the worst nightmare. I was on a date with my biggest crush, now I was going to be crushed!
As I felt sorry for myself, I didn't notice the giant white blob headed towards me at a frightening speed. Until I turned around that is. Headed towards me was a giant, white fucking DOG!
"What the hell!" I screamed before impacting with its forehead. Before I could tumble off its back, I grabbed a hold of its fur. Trying my best to clamp my thighs around it, I wrapped my bags around my body. Burying my face against its silky white fur, I fell asleep.
. . .
I woke up with a start. My head hurt like hell, and for a second I thought that I was in my room. But then I heard the crackle of a wood fire, and a child's laughter. I sat up, rubbing my sore head, and opened my eyes slowly. I was lying atop a simple blanket, and a warm bright fire burned in front of me.
Bracing my back against a tree behind me, I stood up. My legs were shaky, and I couldn't seem to walk. I made a groan of irritation.
"Oh, she's awake!" I heard the voice of a little girl chirp. I slowly turned my head towards the voice. Sitting next to something that looked like a dragon, (for some reason I wasn't surprised) was a little girl. She had dark brown hair, and eyes, with a friendly face. From all the anime I watch, I could see that her clothes were Japanese style. Like a kimono, or something like that.
The girl stood, "Are you an angel?" She looked up at me with silent awe. Now I was confused.
"What?" I asked quietly. I had no fucking clue what she was talking about.
"You fell from the sky! And you were glowing! An- and," She was at a loss for words. I looked down at the girl and a small smile played at my lips.
"Little girl, I am far from being an angel." I tried to stand straight, but I staggered and almost fell. The girl gasped and ran towards me. She helped me back down onto the blanket.
"You shouldn't move, Miss. When Lord Sesshomaru caught you, you hit your head really hard on his." The girl's words were just going through one ear out the other. Who the hell was Lord Sesshomaru? Where the hell am I? I had so many questions running through my head, but I didn't know what to say first. First things first.
"What's your name?" I asked the little girl. She immediately lit up.
"My name is Rin." Said the little girl proudly, and then pointed to the dragon thing. "And that is Ah Un. Usually Jakin and Lord Sesshomaru are here with me, but they went to go do gown up stuff."
She sighed, making me smile. Hopefully her friends were as friendly as she was. Or I was going to explode! But then something clicked into my head.
"Wait, you said your friend saved me right?" She nodded, "But I landed on a giant dog! So you're telling me that your friends with a giant dog!" I didn't mean to raise my voice, but I felt like I was on a different planet. Rin giggled a bit when I let out an exasperated grunt.
"That was just his demon form, Miss." She said it as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.
"Demon form." I echoed. She nodded and laughed a little harder.
"Lord Sesshomaru is a demon, and in his demon form he's a giant dog. But normally he looks like a man. We just happened to be flying when I saw you falling. My lord also saw you. He flew towards you and tried to catch you, but you crashed into his face." She giggled harder. "I've never seen him so confused. He usually is never taken by surprise, but a girl falling from the sky made him a little flustered."
I could not believe what I was hearing. Demons? What kind of crazy ass crap was that? As I was thinking about how absolutely nuts this all was, I saw my bags out of the corner of my eye. I jumped at them. At that moment, my bags were the best thing I could see. My purse was inside of my overnight back. I could of cried when I saw my snack foods, and drinks that I planned on eating the day after.
I even had extra clothes, and clean underwear! Rin couldn't see why I was excited about, so she just shrugged it off and tended to the fire. I dug out my cell phone from my bag, I knew it would be useless; how could there be service in this hell hole. Plus it only had one bar left before it would die. I sighed and threw the useless piece of metal back into the bag.
Picking up a pair of black shorts, I got up now able to walk. Rin looked at me with worry.
"I'm just gonna change my clothes." She smiled at me and returned to what she was doing. I slipped a few feet away, and pulled down my tight jeans shorts. They were not forest appropriate clothes. I pulled on the soft running shorts, and pulled my hair into a pony tail. There was warmth at my skin, and when my hand reached my chest I realized that I was still wearing the crystal. It was the one comforting thing in this whole crazy situation.
Sighing, I walked backed to the small camping area.
"Rin, can you tell me where we are?" I turned the tree corner and came face to face with the most beautiful man I have ever seen; even more beautiful than Sky. His unreadable golden eyes looked at me with a mild curiosity. His long moon silver hair looked as if it were spun from silk. He had strange markings on his skin and a giant furry thing on his shoulder. That's what threw me off a bit.
I could see that he was very tall, and was wearing armor. Rin danced around him, chasing a little toad… thing, around him. She stooped when she saw me turn the corner, ran up to me and pulled me towards him.
"Lord Sesshomaru, she's awake and just fine!" She looked up at him with love in her eyes. Just like how her mother would look at her. "This is… sorry you didn't tell me your name." She turned to me.
"I'm Mika, nice to meet you, and thank you for saving my life." I kinda did a small awkward bow; I knew that the Japanese were big on respect. He kept his face an unreadable mask, and I raised my chin a little higher to show that I wasn't afraid of him. His eyes wandered down to the crystal on my neck. Unconsciously, my hand flew up to the necklace.
The round, warm crystal pulsated in my hand. Its pure light shined through the cracks in my fingers.
"Ahh!" The little toad thing (which I assumed was Jaken) yelled in surprise. "My lord, could it be?" His voice was very pitched and scratching. I looked down at him in annoyance. His beady black eyes stared harder at my hand. "It is! It is! That is the Shikon Jewel! But that's impossible; your brother's mortal friend shattered the jewel! How could this be! Oh my Lord!" He was stopped by a single look from Sesshomaru. He coward behind Rin. The dog demon looked down at me with his golden eyes and asked me in a voice that gave me shivers.
"Who are you, and where are you from?" I wasn't sure where I should start.
"Uh… I'm Mika. And I'm from America." I saw the confusion in Rin and Jaken's faces. But the dog demon kept his face unchanged.
"Where is that?" I looked at him with skepticism.
"America is like, the largest power in the know world." I waved my hand around to make my point. "Only cavemen wouldn't know that." I snorted. Rin giggled, and Jaken turned red with distaste. Sesshomaru sniffed the air around me.
"You smell like someone I know." His golden eyes stared into mine. "What year do you hail from?"
"2011. Why?" A shadow of a smile played at his lips. I didn't like that look. Even Jaken seemed to shrink from that smile.
"You are far from your time human." He then looked at Jaken, "Prepare Rin and Ah Un, we're leaving." Sesshomaru turned and walked toward the dragon thing. Rin chased after him, looking back at me with unsure eyes. I turned to my bags and picked them up. I wasn't going to follow them; I knew when I was unwanted. Not knowing where the hell I was going, I started to walk into the forest.
"Well then, what the hell should I do now?" I was pissed, scared, and on the verge of tears when I walked away. I never truly realized what it was like to be alone. Feeling sorry for myself, I never even watched where I was going. Then I heard the sound of water nearby.
That cheered me up a bit. "Where there's water, there is fish." Smiling confidently, I walked towards the sound. When I reached the clearing, I gasped. Everything was so beautiful. So green and fresh, and the water looked so inviting. "Ugh, I want to bathe." I decided to try and make a fire.
"Let's see, I have a lighter, and some paper. Now all I need is wood." I walked back into the forest, but not too deep to where I where I would get lost. Soon I had a fire blazing. I let out a satisfied chuckle. "See I don't need anyone." And then my stomach growled.
There was no way I would be able to survive on snack foods alone, but I also had no idea how to fish. I went to the edge of the small river and looked into the clear, cold water. I could see the fat, tasty fish. Those teases. They probably know how useless I am!
I got into the water, and immediately got goose bumps. But as I tried to walk I slipped and fell into the water.
"DAMNIT!" I yelled in frustration. I hated water, I never liked swimming, but I had to learn anyway, since our house was so close to a lake. I tried and failed many times, eventually giving up. I took off my soggy clothes and put them by the fire to dry. Looking through my bag for a blanket, I found a flask. I smiled a bit. My mother knew me so well. She knows I don't drink, but just to remind me of that fact, she puts in the temptation. I unscrewed the cap and winced at the smell. Yep, whiskey; damn mom.
I cleaned the silver flask in the river, filling it with fresh water. As I slumped into my small sleeping bag, I wondered how Sky was doing. I missed my mom, and my dad. I knew I would never go back, that I would never see them again. I cried, there I said it. I bawled like a new born baby. I sobbed until I passed out, into a dreamless sleep.
. . .
When Sesshomaru first saw her falling through the sky, he didn't know what to think. The first thing he saw was her shockingly black hair. Then her beautiful, yet confused and startled face. When she crashed into him, and grabbed on for dear life, he let her stay on. He could have easily shaken her off, but he couldn't find himself able to do it.
She had hit her head quite hard, and when they reached the ground she was out cold. Rin was running around him calling her an angel, and he was inclined to believe her. She was the loveliest thing he had ever seen. But when He sniffed her he knew she was a mere human. And no matter how pretty she was, he would never like her.
Or so he thought.
He had left her at camp with Rin, think that she was no threat, and was surprised to see he gone when he returned.
"My Lord! She's an angel alright! She had this thing in her hand that glowed and she's so pretty!" He had to smile at her innocence. He heard a husky female voice coming from his left. It gave him chills to hear it. The he saw her. On the outside he was a calm and collected lord, but on the inside he was still a man.
Her hair was pulled back, and she had very exotic features. She looked as if she was barely wearing anything, but he never kept up with the human fashion. When she told him her name, he wanted to repeat it, so he could taste it on his lips. Mika; a beautiful name. But all of that left his mind when he saw what was hanging around her neck.
He was very curious now. She had the Shikon jewel, the very thing his brother was looking for. And yet here she was, a small human girl, with the whole jewel. The one thing that cleared this up was when he realized that she wasn't from this era. Now he wanted nothing to do with her.
And obviously a very observant girl, she left without complaint. No doubt that she would die of either hunger or a demon would eat her. But she was not his problem. But as he was prepared to leave, he turned back to see if he could still see her. She had completely disappeared. He sniffed the air to see if he could smell her scent, but that was also gone.
"Jaken, take Rin and leave. I will meet up with you later." Before Jaken could reply, the lord was off. Rin smiled, because though she was young, she was wise, and she knew where her lord was headed. He was worried, though he didn't see why he should be. She was a mere girl of no importance. Yet he had the need to find her. He was about to give up when he heard a tart curse coming in the opposite direction in which he was headed.
And to his amusement he found her soaked, and fumbling with fish. She had been able to build herself a fire, and had set up a small camp. He sat in the large tree and watched her struggle with her quest for food. Eventually, however, she gave up and returned to her little camp. As he was about to reveal himself, she started to strip.
He was fascinated by her body; it was so different from the women of his time. She was very fit, yet had the softness of a woman. The underclothes she was wearing confused him. It seemed to barely even cover her private areas. Barely a wisp silk and lace separated her body from the world. She relaxed into her bed clothes, and started to cry.
His heart braked for her, but he shook his head to tell himself that he was acting ridiculous. He watched her until she fell asleep. The he jumped from his perch and walked toward her sleeping frame. Her hair changed colors in the firelight. He knelt down to touch the silken ribbon of raven. Bringing the lock to his nose he smelt it. Such a strange scent, like mint with berries. Her eyes moved behind their soft tan lids.
And she had a slight frown in her brow; her lips pouted as if she was thinking. She must be dreaming of a way to get out of here. He was enjoying his time when all of a sudden her fist connected to his jaw. His eyes widened in surprise, not only because she hit him, but because of how much it hurt. He looked down at her to find her eyes wide open, staring wildly at him.
"Get away from me you bastard!" She whispered sharply.
. . .
I was floating. I have never felt so warm in my life. I knew I was dreaming, and not wanting to wake up, I forced myself to stay asleep. Even when I heard someone approach me, even when I felt someone touch my hair. I didn't want to wake up; I didn't want to face that horrible world again.
But my eyes fluttered open to see that sonofabitch kneeling over me. Now I was pissed. Saved my life or not, I will not have some guy creeping over me while I sleep. My hand balled into a fist, I could feel it heating up. The crystal around my necked warmed. Then… THWAK! I punched him in the face.
He looked very surprised when I hit him. I hissed for him to go away. But when I saw him look at my hand in surprise I did too, and boy did I scream. My hand was completely incased in crystal. It glowed. I could open and close my hand, but as I tried to shake it off it wouldn't disappear. I scooted back in the dirt trying to escape the glowing gem hand.
Sesshomaru simply stood up, and walked towards me.
"Get away! Get away!" I hissed, still pissed by the fact that he watched me in my sleep. "Don't touch me you pervert!" He stooped then, and looked into my eyes. His golden globes mesmerized me. He said in an emotionless voice.
"Stop screaming human. Close your eyes and breath." I listened, and as I inhaled, I could feel the warmth in my hand trail up to my chest and disappear. When I opened my eyes I gasped.
"What the fuck?" My hand was there. I stared at the slim, tan hand attached to my arm in surprise. "What did you just do?" I asked the demon lord suspiciously.
"Nothing, you were just annoying me." He stated dryly. I felt my face heat up.
"Well excuse me if I'm not used to my hand being incased in fucking crystal. And I was annoying you? I wasn't the one standing over you while you slept! You deserved to be punched in the face. Why are you even here, you didn't want me around in the first place?" I threw my hands into the air in exasperation. Sesshomaru watched me as I paced back and forth in anger. I stopped and looked him right in the eye. "And if you think for one moment that just because you saved my life that you can push me around, you are WRONG!"
I grabbed my clothes, realizing that I was in my underwear, stuffed my sleeping bag into my bag, and stomped away from the camp. 'That bastard, that dog, that asshole!' I thought of the vilest names for the demon lord. I didn't care how tall, and powerful he was. That his hair looked so soft and silky, that anyone would want to drag their hands through it. That under that armor he was most likely built like a- Stop! What the hell am I thinking? Damn it all to hell.
When I finally looked up to see where I was walking, I noticed that I was completely lost.
"Shit!" I whispered to myself. "I should have just stayed at my camp, and made that bastard leave!" I slumped against a tree, and raised my eyes to the sky. "So many stars…" I couldn't help but feel small when I looked into the stars. No one knew where I was; not my mother, not my father, none of my friends, not even sky. I hated that fact. No one would be able to find me even if they tried.
I closed my eyes. I didn't realize how fucking tired I was. Remembering that I had my IPod in my bag, I turned to take it out so I could listen to it. Luckily my IPod was fully charged. A luxury that I was not going to waste. I scrolled down to my favorite down to my favorite song. It didn't have any words, but I liked to sing my own words.
. . .
Sesshomaru was a little peeved. In his head, he thought that she should be grateful that he made sure that she was ok. When she stomped off into the darkness, he was so tempted to leave her behind. But he followed her anyway. This time he had learned his lesson; he kept to the shadows. He heard her cursing silently to herself. He had noticed at first that she was easily distracted, so he wasn't surprised when she found herself lost.
He watched her slump on a tree and felt a smug satisfaction in seeing her suffer. But then his breath caught. It looked as if she was looking straight at him. Her honey brown eyes shined in the light of the stars. The lonely look on her beautiful face made him want to jump down and say something.
She reached into her bag and pulled out something that glowed. He stared in fascination at the alien device. She placed something into her ears, and he could hear a pleasant sound emanating from them. He closed his eyes to listen to the strange music. And then she started to sing.
She had the most beautiful voice he had ever heard. She spoke nonsense, but it was still beautiful. Her voice weaved in and out with the music from her device. The soul and pain in her voice brought an ach to his heart. He had never heard a singing style like this before.
It was if she touched his mind heart, and soul. He opened his eyes, and focused the two golden suns upon her. She was still singing her heart out. Sitting in the darkness, under the moon, she looked like some sort of ethereal beauty. Finally when her song came to its end, she opened her eyes and looked at the sky again. He heard her sigh, the she stood. He was surprised that she didn't set up a camp right there. Instead she looked at the tree he was perched on and said dryly.
"I know that you're there." His eyebrow raised in mild surprise. Not many demons, let alone humans, would be able to sense him so quickly. Jumping down with the grace only a demon lord could have, he faced her. She looked him with an emotionless face, and he returned it.
"Why are you following me?" She asked quietly. "Is there something that you want?"
He approached her until he was a couple of feet away. She was forced to look up into his face.
"I owe you no explanation for my actions, human. And also…" He stopped when she raised her hand to his face.
"First off, dipshit," He growled quietly, "don't call me human as if it's a bad thing. Secondly, my name is Mika! Do I have to spell that out for you?" She spelt it very slowly, as if she was talking to a child. "M.I.K.A. Mika, not that hard, right? Now if you're going to stalk me, you might as well call me by my name." He narrowed his eyes at the female. He never realized how tall she was; he was still much taller, but still, she was intimidating.
"Fine, Mika," He said with the same tone. "As I was saying before I was so rudely interrupted," She snorted, "I was merely making sure that the crystal around your neck was authentic." He lied right through his teeth. "It was interesting when I saw its affects on your body." She chuckled, which gave him chills.
"So my punch to your face was so interesting, that you followed me? Well Lord Sesshomushroom or whatever, I don't want you to follow me! Go away!" She turned grabbed her bags and tried to stomp away. But she let out a little scream when she was lifted into the air.
"What the- PUT ME THE FUCK DOWN!" She yelled. Sesshomaru had her in his grip, and refused to let go. She kicked and bit at him, until she realized how high into the air they were. "Damn it all!" His lips twitched into a small smile at her futile attempts to escape him. He felt a small ounce of smug pleasure when he felt her go limp.
He didn't answer her when she quietly asked where they were going. But he did allow her to stand upright on his cloud.
. . .
Great, I thought to myself. I got myself kidnapped by some white haired freak. Who, by the way, refused to tell me where the hell we were going. But my anger was momentarily stifled when I had realized that we were flying. Like, flying on a fucking cloud. Check that off of my bucket list. It was very cold, so I unconsciously pressed into Sesshomaru's back. The fluffy thing on his shoulder was very warm.
I pressed my wind chapped face into the warm fur. It smelt strange, but not unpleasant. Here's something my mother would never approve of her only daughter pressed into the back of a strange man. She wouldn't scold me when she saw how attractive that stranger was. I got on my tip-toes to see over his shoulders. I could see a warm orange glow near us in the trees.
At least now I knew where we were headed. He was taking me to the place where Rin and that toad Jaken were. It made me a little bit more relaxed to realize that I was safe. I mean, I didn't think that he was going to hurt me or anything, but deep in your head you get doubts. As I pressed close into his back, my stomach growled. It wasn't a tinny little quiet growl' it sounded as if I had caged an animal inside my guts.
Sesshomaru looked over his shoulder at me. I glared at him.
"I smell grilled fish," He said, "Rin must have made food." The thought of food made me giggle. I felt Sesshomaru start at the sound. I didn't care, I was ravenous.
"Could I have some?" I asked in a small voice. He looked back at me. I saw a flash of emotion in his eyes, which disappeared as quickly as it had appeared.
"If there is enough." He said dryly and turned around. When they touched the ground, I heard Rin call Sesshomaru's name. I peeked from around his back, and Rin smiled brightly.
"Miss Mika, you here!" She ran over and threw her arms around me. Jaken's mouth dropped open when he saw me. But from the look the dog demon gave him, kept silent. I look towards the fire to see grilled fish, and vegetables. My stomach made an audible growl. Rin giggled.
"Here, come eat with me." She pulled me towards the fire. "Lord Sesshomaru and Jaken don't eat human food, so I always have plenty." She passed me a grilled fish. I ate that fucker in two seconds.
"Thank you Rin!" I hugged her to my chest. She laughed. It felt nice to see a person; a normal person. I cradled Rin for a few minutes, since she didn't seem to mind. I wasn't sure how old she was, but she seemed like the type of girl who liked to be held. It was nice to feel something warm against me. I remembered how my mother would hold me like this sometimes; even though I was taller than her now.
I was falling asleep on Rin's head when I heard a strange noise. I turned to look if it was Sesshomaru, but he was gone. My brow furrowed when I tried to figure out what the noise was. I saw that Rin was asleep in my arms.
"Rin," I whispered, she looked up at me with sleepy eyes. "I heard a noise… Is Sesshomaru the only demon here?" Her eyes widened, she jumped up from me and ran to the dragon thing. She pulled out a sword. "What are you doing?" I asked. She tossed me the sword.
"I think we're being watched." She whispered. She pulled the dragon towards me. I was tempted to back away, but it seemed tame enough. She got close to me. "Do you know how to use a sword?" I shook my head. She looked worried all of a sudden, as if she was think, 'of course an angel doesn't know how to use a sword!' I could have laughed, but I was getting nervous.
"Well, let's hope it's just a bird or something." I said, trying to convince myself more than her. I heard the noise again, but this time it was closer. I held Rin tighter to my chest. The dragon shook its heads (Did I mention it had two heads? Didn't think so); obviously aggravated by something. The noise was getting louder, and I could see the trees being torn down. Now I was scared. Rin whimpered, I looked at her. I had to protect her. Standing in front of her, I gripped the sword in my hands; I closed my eyes and breathed. Then it burst through the trees. The ugliest thing I've ever seen. It had two bulging, glowing, blood red eyes. It was covered in fleshy green skin. But it was smaller than I thought. About Sesshomaru's height.
It sniffed the air. It must be blind; I turned to Rin and put my finger to my lips. She nodded. Its massive head blindly turned in every direction. Maybe it will just not notice us and go away. Well I was fucking wrong. Its blind eyes swung towards us. It started to run towards us. Rin screamed.
I raised the sword defensively, closed my eyes and swung down at its head. I felt it slice, and Rin gasp. I opened my left eye, and then gasped. The sword had turned to crystal! I had cut off the bastards arm. It squealed in pain.
"Rin, run!" She grabbed the dragon's reigns and ran in the opposite direction. The monster ran at me again, but this time I knew what to do. I thrust the sword up to the demons neck. And closed my eyes as I heard the sickening sound. The beast choked on the sword, and I let it go. As I did that, the crystal slid up my arm, and back to the necklace. It fell backwards, clawing at its throat.
I stumbled backwards, falling onto my butt. My body wouldn't stop shaking. I heard Rin yell. I turned towards her. Another demon was cornering her! It was a lot bigger. I jumped up and grabbed the sword out of the now dead demon's throat. The crystal now slid over the sword. I lifted it over my head, and ran towards them. Its dead eyes turned to my direction.
"Get your slimy hands away from her, you blind fuck!' I yelled, as I brought the blade down on its neck. Its head fell onto the ground. Rin jumped into my arms, and I dropped the sword. She was shaking too. "You ok?" she nodded. "Good. Damn, I swear I almost pissed myself." I chuckled weakly. I heard another sound, and cursed at the idea of fighting again. But as I turned I saw that it was Sesshomaru and Jaken.
Rin ran towards him and hugged him tightly. She pressed her face into the demon lord's waist. And he placed a hand at her head. I thought she was crying, but when she looked up, she was smiling, ear to ear.
"My Lord, you should have seen it! She was so fast and strong and brave!" She jumped up and down. "It was amazing! She took down those two demons all by herself, and she didn't even get a scratch! They didn't have a chance against an angel like her. He looked up at me. His elegant eye brow lifted as if to ask, 'Is this true?'
"Yeah, that was some crazy shit." I said shakily. He looked to be mildly impressed.
"She's never even used a sword. And when she did, it was like, covered in crystal." This is when Jaken spoke up.
"What? My lord, it appears that the Shikon Jewel has connected with the human's soul!" He squawked. The tall demon looked over to me, I just rolled me eyes; I had no idea what they were talking about. I leaned against a tree, and closed my eyes. I slowly drifted off to sleep to the sound of Sesshomaru's deep voice. And I felt a blanket being draped across my shoulders. Then silence.
. . .
Sesshomaru watched the hum- Mika, sleep. He was very impressed with her bravery. Not many inexperienced human children would rush to the aid of someone they hardly knew. Rin had fallen in love with the girl. He'd never seen her so happy. He stared at the young girl, wondering why he even brought her back. He tried to tell himself that it was because of the jewel, but he knew that he was lying to himself.
He wanted to train her how to fight, but he had to make her trust him first. Her eyes opened.
"What the fuck are you looking at?" She asked through a yawn. His full mouth, twitch into a frown. First he had to do something about that mouth of hers. She stood up and looked around. Then looking at him she blushed. "Um… I have to go to the rest room…" He could have laughed.
"Be my guest," He said gesturing towards the woods. She stared at him hard.
"I don't want to be alone…" That surprised him. He just thought that she didn't want to go into the woods. But realizing that she was afraid, he stood, and followed her. "Wait here, I'll be over there."
She walked a little further than he did. A thought crossed his mind, 'Why am I doing this?' he wouldn't even do his sort of thing for Rin, let alone a girl he had just met. He could hear her jumping around. He smirked at the idea of him actually liking someone other than Rin. She walked back to him, and looked awkwardly into his eyes, "Thanks." She said quietly.
He turned around and walked back into the camp. He heard make a little huffing sound. He smirked again. She went back to her tree and fell asleep. Being a very powerful demon, he didn't need to sleep very often, so he stayed up to watch her dream.
