Chapter 10 – Disgusting Jealousy
Katana walked deeper into the darkness of the forest. Her aura spread out, telling all that she was stronger and not to mess with her. All who tried would not be shown mercy. She wouldn't even give them a second thought when it came to protecting a person under her protection.
Her cold eyes swiftly moved across the next clearing, determining it perfect to camp at. Walking toward the middle, she set the kit down so he may rest. Instantly he moved toward her warmth, but she proceeded to jump to the other side, not wanting him to touch her unless necessary. His crush had come to far, and she wasn't going to make him even think she wanted something more.
Sitting within the green grass, which had already begun to show signs of frost, Katana set her eyes upon the kitsune. Her aura, and youkai abilities scanned out, finding anything and everything that was dangerous to her ward. Her eyes never moved from the small kit, as the night wore on.
Before she knew it, the sun was rising over the horizon. Her deep blue eyes wavered for a millisecond, glancing toward the sun now coming over the mountains. Finally noticing the change, she rose from her spot and approached the shivering kit. Eyes narrowed, she remembered that young ones such as he needed warmth most of the night.
Sighing from her stupidity, Katana reached down and picked up the male. Holding him close she shared her warmth, and began traveling once again. She traveled quickly, searching for the shards, though she didn't even know if there were more, or if Naraku had merely allowed them to be hidden this whole time.
Her eyes moved over the land, tring to catch a glimpse of pink, which usually came from the small shards. During her short journey she came upon many youkai, and never once did the kit waver from sleep, but did however move closer to her body.
Maybe we should just leave him here, her beast suggested?
Katana growled, "He is my responsibility."
So,
the beast snorted, that means you're going to allow the kit to
believe you might love him someday. Iie
That's what he's hinting at though, the beast
snarled back, loving a youkai is suicidal and you know that. Why
then do you allow it to continue? I cannot just tell him to
stop; he must learn himself
When his heart is broken, then will you
tell him to stop? Then he will have learned
Her beast rose its head,
saying, Iie, then he will have died. His own loss, not
mine…
You do not mean that! Though we are one, and you have changed you still have those weak emotions deep down, and you do care, her beast snorted.
You sound like you care, Katana smirked, laughing silently at the baka.
Her walking never stopped, and she seemed to be focused on her surroundings. Her long, which were wide set, steps caused her hakamas to bounce and flare. She knocked herself from her thinking when the wind picked up and Shippo shivered within her arms. Looking down upon the kit, she watched as he woke once more, but this time didn't move, merely averted his gaze from her own.
She dropped him then…
Shippo glanced up, sickened with his thoughts of his foster mother. He told himself to stop, that this wasn't right, but gazing up into her beautiful yet evil looking face, he felt his pants tighten. Moving his eyes, he found himself looking at her rising and falling chest, with those large breasts, which would probably be wonderful to squeeze…
Katana moved forward, her eyes narrowed more then ever. She could smell his sudden musk, meaning he was aroused beyond what she thought he could get. Plus, she saw, with her keen eyesight, the bulge growing within his hakamas. Walking quickly, she heard him scramble to his feet and begin following behind her at a slower speed but nearly right behind her.
Shippo stumbled many times, but was thankful for her long jacket. He didn't want to know what would happen should he see her ass. However, she was going a little too fast for him, and every once in a while he would fall to the ground. Running forward, he took notice that her sleeves had risen a bit on her wrists, showing off her claws. Fear spiked within his mind when he took notice that they had grown to around five inches.
Katana took a glance back at him before continuing in her journey. She knew that he'd seen her disapproval, and she'd meant for it to be that way. By him becoming frightened, the young male's arousal disappeared and was replaced by a smell she couldn't get enough of. That was until the scent of blood hit her nose.
Her beast raised its head, and moved her toward the smell. Before she knew it, she was on top of a cliff, looking down upon a gruesome battle. Her eyes caught sight of wolves, and she then caught sight of Kouga, who looked up.
Kouga glanced up to see a shadowed figure, which seemed to be wearing a long looking kimono. His eyes narrowed, until he turned to his next opponent. His claws slashed through the next neko, before he took another glance at the female looking figure.
Katana kept her
eyes upon the battle, and took notice that Kouga still had the jewel
shards within his legs. Somewhere deep within her mind she heard the
snickering… Not for long… Yes, I agree. Not for long
The wind shifted, and her scent traveled past his nose when he took out his final opponent. Sniffing at it once more, he looked up and gasped at the figure. Though she looked different, he could tell that the female had the same figure as his long lost Kagome…
Katana grabbed Shippo by haori collar, and jumped down toward the battlefield. When she landed, Kouga stood there gasping at her, and yet seemed to be bewildered by her appearance.
When set down, Shippo watched as Kouga walked forward, Katana's old name upon his lips. Without hesitation he growled low in his throat, and warned the wolf off. Though he was still to young to battle a male like Kouga he was determined to fight off the wolf, which was quickly becoming aroused.
Jealousy spiked between the two males…
Hatred formed in their eyes…
Both were ready to fight…
Sickened, Katana slashed out her whip between the two males. Snorting, she hissed, "Knock it off, Shippo."
"Hai Katana," his eyes shifted between bright red and green.
"Katana?" Kouga asked.
"'Tis my name wolf," Katana replied.
"You wouldn't have been… Kagome would you?" Kouga asked.
"My name is Katana," she hissed, "I have never heard of this Kagome…" She hated this wolf! Ever since she'd told him off, yet he still kept coming, she'd grown a deep hatred against him. There was no way in hell she was going to say she was in fact Kagome, once upon a time.
The two males growled…
Their jealousy was disgusting, especially since she wasn't into either of their races. From the look Sesshoumaru had given her, she wished that he would just swoop in and kill at least the wolf. However, he was not here and she would have to take care of it herself.
"Prince Kouga," Katana coldly stated, "Hand over the jewel shards and I might show you mercy."
"My jewel shards!" Kouga growled, "I don't think so bitch!"
"Then because of your jealousy toward my ward, you shall die this day," Katana replied in a voice even Sesshoumaru could envy.
Shippo sat there stunned, finally understanding his relationship with Katana. His love was crushed under the word: 'ward'. He was merely a ward, a person she was protecting because she felt like it, nothing more. How could I be so blind…?
Jealousy on one side diminished…
Love disappeared…
Shippo felt tears filled his eyes…
"Very well," Kouga snarled, "I'll take you out…"
"I'd like to see you try, wolf," Katana hissed coldly.
