I don't lay claim to anything but the plot :)


Bella's pov

I was in the dojo with Shippo and Rin. We were doing some katas which are moves to calm the body.

After we did a couple, Shippo said "Bella are you ready to begin?"

"Yes Shippo, I'm ready." I said calmly.

We got into a fighting stance and took a deep breath.

"Rin you're going to be the judge." He looked at her.

"Ok Shippo," Rin said in her soft alto voice.

Rin looked to Shippo and said "Ready" He gave her a nod.

She then looked to me and said "Ready" I also nodded.

She then said in a loud but soft voice "Fight!"

Shippo charged at me and tried to land a punch in my face, but I dodged and tried to hit him in the abdomen. He jumped in the air and yelled "Fox fire." A huge blue fire ball shot out. I couldn't get out of the way in time so I put up a barrier. The Fox fire never even touched me and from what I saw, Shippo looked impressed. Shippo landed on his feet and had a grin on his face. I didn't know why he was grinning, so I checked my surroundings. Everything looked ok so why was he grinning.

That's when I felt a power surge, and it was coming fast. The next thing I knew I had barley dodged Rin and her Death Sais. She landed perfectly on her feet a couple inches away from me. Now it was my turn to be impressed, because Rin could fight but she never liked to.

"Bella I hope you don't mind if I join in on the fight do you" She whispered shyly.

"I wouldn't have it any other way Rin." I smiled brightly.

Rin's Sais had a dark purple handle with a gleaming silver blade with a light purple sheen. She charged at me without hesitation. I had to admit Rin had become quite fast. I guess it helped with father and mother training her.

Rin was trying to cut me with the tip of her Death Sai, but luckily I was able to dodge every attack. That was until Shippo jumped in and gave me a scratch to the face, and Rin gave me a kick in the abdomen. Just before they could land another hit I did a back flip and landed a couple feet away. I guess it's time to pull out my new weapon.

I raised my hand and said one word "Destiny." Then there was a bright reddish purple light coming from my hand. After the bright light had gone down they were able to see the weapon father had given to me. Shippo looked at it in surprise and Rin just smiled. My sword had a black handle with a charm at the hilt. The blade of the sword was bright silver and had a design of a dragon.

The sword was in my hand and my black sheath with white flames was strapped to my back. Shippo still had this look of amazement but soon lost it to a smirk. He said a couple of words and two balls of fire appeared in his hands. They stretched into something bigger and then there was a bright blue light.

When I could finally open my eyes and I saw Shippo's most prized weapons the Twin Hooked Swords. Now Shippo had a big grin on his face.

"I guess this fight is going to get a little more interesting!" Shippo yelled.

I smiled back and nodded "I guess so elder brother." I giggle.

At this we charged at each other and began a new fight, one with hand to hand and weapons. I couldn't wait to see who would be the victor of this battle. I guess I'll see at the end.

Sess pov

I had a lot of things to deal with today and I honestly didn't expect this sort of thing to happen.

Flashback

"Sesshomaru don't you think its time that Carlisle come home?" Kagome asked.

"Kagome he'll come home soon stop worrying." I replied.

"How can you not worry, he said he would be back in 2008" She whimpered.

"Maybe he got caught up with something Kagome." I said soothingly.

"Maybe but don't you think that he would at least send something to let us know that he was ok? Sesshomaru, why not send Bella to check on him." She pleaded.

I gave her that look that said "Why in the 7 hell's would I do that.

"Sesshy pleases send her you know she's been dying to go somewhere. Kagome gave me the lip.

Kagome gave me those eyes that said "Come on please and I'll leave you alone." I sighed knowing this wasn't going to end well.

"Fine Kagome you win I'll let her go." I mumble.

Kagome hugged me and gave me a kiss and ran off excited.

End of flashback

"Jaken" I called out into the hall and he came running and stumbling along the way. Sometimes I think to myself on why I keep him around.

Jakens pov

Sesshomaru-sama had called for me and said I needed to come at once. I was 5 minutes late now he's going to fucking kill me. I'm so dead I was silently scolding myself. I came into the room stumbling on my way, but luckily I didn't fall. "Jaken" Sesshomaru-sama said to me.

"Yes mi lord." I said standing straight.

"I need you to go and get Bella for me. It's very urgent."

"As you wish mi lord" I ran down the hall as fast as my little legs would have carried me.

Bella's pov

Shippo, Rin, and I were really going at it. I had successfully cut Shippo on the shoulder and hit Rin in the chest. We three were breathing heavily, but none of us were going to stop. Rin came at me again with her Sais. Trying to cut me but I was able to dodge all of it. She then jumped back a couple of feet and said

"Shippo-kun, stay back please." Rin whispered softly.

He nodded and stood back away from her and me.

Rin began to spin her Death Sais, and then stood in a stance with one of her Sais facing the right and the other left. She then began to gather energy inside them. You could see the lightning coming from them. It had a blackish violet tint to it and it was sparking everywhere.

Now I knew why she had told Shippo to back off. Rin was going to use one of her more powerful attacks that gave her weapons the name they had. She was going to use Death strike on me. Now I was screwed because there was no way I could avoid it.

Rin was done charging the energy needed, and she had the blades facing herself and the hilts facing me. She then spun them so the blade was pointed at me and then screamed Death strike. I had just enough time to put up a miko barrier. But not even that would save me from all the damage. The blast hit my barrier and it held for a good 10 minutes. But it then broke after that and the blast hit me full force.

It took about 9 minutes for all the smoke to subside. Then all you would have heard was me cursing. "Gosh darn it Rin were you trying to kill me!"

"Sorry Bella, but it is a battle though." Rin giggled.

"I know but damn girl you didn't have to use that attack!" I yelled.

When I tried to get up it hurt like hell.

"Shit! That hurts man, I think were done for today." I mutter.

"Agreed" Shippo and Rin said in harmony.

Sometimes I envied how they have each other to rely on. It always made me think about when I would get someone like that. I sighed and started to walk over to them.

Just then Jaken came hurtling through the door yelling "Isabella-sama, Sesshomaru-sama wants to see you at once!"

"Why Jaken, have I done something wrong?' I asked.

"I do not know mi lady, alls he told me was to get you and that it's urgent." He said in a huff from being out of breath.

Well if dad wants me and he said it's urgent I guess I'd better go. Then I sprinted down the hall and went into my father's office.
