New World New People

Controling Time

Caitlin muttered as she once again took the stance that Sesshomaru had taught her, she was low to the ground and could easily switch from defence to offence.

"Do we REALLY have to do this again?" Caitlin growled at Sesshomaru, she hadn't slept in days and she was ready to kill something. In the time that they had been training Caitlin hadn't lost control of her powers.

"Yes. Prepare yourself!" Sesshomaru said, he charged Caitlin.

"Oh Jesus Chirst! I've been fucking ready dammit!" She growled, before Sesshomaru's blade landed a hit Caitlin jumped up and thwaked Sesshomaru on the back of his head, her speed had shot up now that she was mad. "That's it? I thought the 'great Lord Sesshomaru' had more than THAT to offer, apperently I was wrong." Caitlin muttered.

"You're not going to get to me." Sesshomaru muttered.

"It's worth a try isn't it? Even InuYasha does it enough! I mean when Sounga came back or whatever he provoked you, you almost lost!" Caitlin said. Suddenly she was thrown against the wall on the other side of the room. "Ow...that's gonna smart..." Caitlin muttered, she lifted herself from the ground where she had fallen after she hit the wall. "Weeee...the world spins..." Caitlin muttered, she fell back down and she was out like a light. Sesshomaru hadn't intended for her to sleep, this was the time when her powers would have the most power if they deiceded to go out of control.

"Damn." Sesshomaru muttered. He walked over to Caitlin and lifted her off the ground, the Time Key was still in her hand, she was holding onto it like it was a life line.

"Stupid me..." Caitlin muttered in her sleep, Sesshomaru wondered what she was dreaming about. Sesshomaru walked through the house without making a noise, it was the middle of the night and everyone was sleeping.

Kouga and Erin had been watching a movie when Erin fell asleep, falling onto Kouga's chest, he hadn't moved her because he didn't want her to wake, and he knew that the last few days were hard on her, just like they were everyone else, Caitlin had been continuiously snapping at people, especially Sesshomaru, since he was the one that didn't let her sleep, giving her constant does of caffinee and sugar.

Kagome and InuYasha were in Caitlin's sisters room, sleeping on the bunk bed that was there for sleep overs. Kagome was on the top and InuYasha on the bottom, just incase Kagome said 'sit' in her sleep. In all the time they had been there she had only said 'sit' once.

Miroku and Sango were sleeping in the guest room, Sango's head was on Miroku's shoulder and his arm was wrapped around her possessively. Caitlin thought that they'd have a nice family one they got rid of Miroku's wind tunnel, that'd prove a problem when it came undone and they were in the middle of something.

Sesshomaru laid Caitlin down on her bed and then started to walk away, he felt his hair yank and turned to look back at Caitlin, somehow she had gotten his hair in her hand and wouldn't let go. With a sigh he went and sat on the edge of the bed, so she had more slack and it wouldn't be as easy to pull his hair.

Erin stretched and noticed that she had been sleeping on Kouga, with a deep blush she sat up and looked around, no one else was up and she didn't hear the growls from Caitlin and Sesshomaru sparing.

"I wonder where they are..." Erin muttered.

"They're upstairs." Kouga answered suddenly, nearly making Erin jump out of her socks. She turned on him.

"Don't do that! You scared me half to death!" Erin said.

"Sorry, I thought you knew I was up." Kouga said honestly.

"I'm not used to your so called sleeping. So no I didn't." Erin muttered.

"Full demons don't really sleep, we doze. When we smell, hear, feel, or anything else is awake we wake instantly to see if it's danger." Kouga explained.

"So in other words when I moved you woke?" Kouga nodded, Erin was slowly starting to understand, but it'd still take a while to sink into her think head. (Haha Erin) "Anyway, you said they were upstairs?" Erin asked, Kouga nodded and Erin walk upstairs. She opened Cait's door.

Sesshomaru was sitting on the floor glowering at the far wall. His hair was in Cait's hand.

"Got stuck?" Erin snickered, then she noticed that the two fingers with his whip were glowing. "Ah! I'll shut up!" Erin yelped and hid behind Kouga. Caitlin opened her eyes and sat up straight, then she stretched, Sesshomaru's hair still in her hand.

"Do you mind?" Sesshomaru growled. Caitlin blinked and looked at him.

"What's your problem?" she asked.

"I can't go any where, you're holding my hair." Sesshomaru answered in a deep glutteral growl.

"Oh. You'll live." Caitlin muttered, but let go anyways. Sesshomaru stood and walked past Erin and the others. "Reow! Jeez, maybe he needs a nap." Caitlin muttered, her usual self coming back.

"Full demons doze." Erin and Kouga said at the same time, they looked at each other and started to laugh while Caitlin raised her eyebrow.

"Kouga and Erin sitting in a tree K-I-S-S-I-N-G! First comes love then comes marrage, then comes a baby in the-WHOA! WATCH IT!" Caitlin growled as she dodged Kougas' attack, in the end he hit her bed, nearly ripping it in half.

"Oh shit. Kouga, run." Erin said as she pushed him out the door, Caitlin walked over to her bed and looked at it, now she couldn't sleep on it.

"Why?" Kouga asked.

"You killed her bed and now you're in deeeep shit." Erin answered.

"Why you little-!" Caitlin growled, her eyes flashing with anger and hatred. "You're so fucking dead!" she added, then she lunged at Kouga, missing him only by an inch.

"Whoa!" Kouga ran away and Caitlin was hot on his heels, her Time Key was gone, then suddenly it was in her hand. "Don't kill me!" Kouga yelped as he ducked to avoid her swipe with the Time Key.

"YOU KILLED MY BED, SO WHY SHOULD I SHOW YOU MERCY?" She screamed at the top of her lungs.

"Because! I'm too young to die!" Kouga answered.

"NO YOU'RE NOT YOU IDIOT!" Caitlin growled at him. She chased Kouga all around the house, trying to kill him every chance she got. "HOLD STILL MAGGOT!" she yelled as she swung her Key. Kagome and InuYasha heard the racket and came downstairs, Kouga just managed to aviod an attack. Sango and Miroku walked out into the living room and came across the sight. Luckily they managed to duck in time to aviod the swipe that Kouga ended up jumping over.

"Cait! Chillax!" Erin said as she ran over to her friend and tried to ger her to stop.

"NO! HE KILLED WHERE I SLEEP! IF I WAS TO BE FAIR THEN HE WOULD HAVE TO PAY IT OFF, BUT I'M NOT FAIR SO I'LL JUST KILL HIM INSTEAD!"

"Enough!" Sesshomaru growled. Caitlin, Kouga, Miroku, Sango, InuYasha, Kagome, and Erin all froze. Sesshomaru walked over to Caitlin and pushed her down on the couch she had been standing on the arm to get a good swing in at Kouga. Sesshomaru looked at the others and they fled, leaving Caitlin and Sesshomaru alone.

"Yes?" Caitlin asked in an annoyed tone. Suddenly she was hit upside the head. "Hey! What the hell was that for?" Caitlin growled at him.

"Your stupidity." Sesshomaru answered, his usual monotone back in place. Caitlin looked at him and then sighed.

"You're right, I am stupid." Caitlin muttered, Sesshomaru didn't think that she'd agree, usualy she'd put up a fight. She stood and walked to her room, slamming the door behind her. Caitlin sheirked at the top of her lungs, everyone in the house ran to Caitlin's room. She was clutching her fingers to her chest.

"What happened?" Erin asked.

"None of your god damn business!" Caitlin growled at her friend. She had been irritated lately and it showed. "Move!" she added as she threw her one hand up in the air and shoved people out of the way. She didn't let them see her hand.

As she walked through the house her hand throbbed with pain. Caitlin walked into the kitchen and put her hand under cold water.

"That's better." Caitlin muttered.

"What'd you do?" Sesshomaru asked, Caitlin wasn't surprised that he was there, she was his trainee, and if his trainee didn't get something right that meant the Great Lord Sesshomaru was bad at something.

"Slammed my hand in my door and now it's all jammed up and in flamed. I always do this and considering I'm a demon this should be over by tomorrow." Caitlin explained.

"Cait, where's your parents?" Kagome asked from the door way. Before Kagome could see what happened Caitlin whipped her hand out from underneath the flow of water and turned to Kagome.

"Well my mom, step dad, and sister are all on a curise. It was a trip for three and I volunteered to stay behind and watch the house, since my sister couldn't stay, she's only, uh...10. Now, I've gotta go, I'll be back later!" Caitlin said, she fled from the kitchen and walked outside, her hand was still throbbing and hurt like a bitch.

"Hey Cait, where ya goin'?" Erin asked from an open window.

"Eh, takin' a walk." Caitlin answered with a shrug.

"Why don't I come with you?"

"Up to you."

"Alright, I'll be down in a minute." Erin left the window and Caitlin looked at her hand, she moved it, it was feeling better, but it still hurt. Before Erin was outside she was able to use it normally without rising any suspisions. "So, figure out where we're going?" Erin asked.

"Naw, it's me, do I ever know where I'm going to end up?"

"You know this place better than the back of your hand! Of course you do!" Erin said.

"Eh, true. Well I was planning on going to the store, I'm in the mood for some soda."

"Oooh, good idea!" Erin said. "Same old place?"

"Dur." Caitlin said. She and Erin took the tracks to the store, the old bar was still there but both could easily reach it, Caitlin had to duck to avoid getting her head whacked. They got to the store and bought soda, Mountain Dew Code Red. "We're back!" Caitlin yelled.

"Ah! Caitlin! It's raining." Erin yelped. "How did you manage to avoid getting wet?"

"I made time slow down so that I didn't have to get wet." Caitlin answered.

"And you couldn't do the same for me?"

"Hmm...nope!" Caitlin said with a laugh. Erin glared at her friend and Caitlin walked into the kitchen with 10 2 liters of soda. "We're gettin' high tonight!" Caitlin said as she poured drinks for everyone.
