Chapter 11 -Sing A Lullaby-
"Sesshoumaru! NO!" Ami yelled
"Oh Shit! Oh Shit! Oh Shit! Oh Shit! Koga chanted
"Come on we've gota move! If he transforms in here we'll be buried alive!"
Kouga gulped.
"Ok! Got ya!"
He picked Ami up and ran forward until they were standing in the sunlight outside the indenture. He bumped into Malon coming down after Sesshoumaru.
"Ami!" he exclaimed
"Malon! Put me down Koga."
"Ami!" Malon cried. "We were so afraid you were dead!" He hugged her tightly.
"Malon, " she broke away. "Do you have my knife? PLEASE tell my you have my knife!"
Malon looked at her stupidly for a moment then his face brightened and he handed her the retracted switchblade.
A roar sounded from inside and Malon jumped, Ami and Koga froze.
"What was that!?"
"Sesshoumaru... Here Koga!" She flipped open the blade and tossed it to him.
"Wha?"
"You'll need it. Sesshoumaru's after you!"
Koga went a little pale.
Another roar come from the cave and a huge demonic dog smashed his shoulder through the over lip and his eyes, red and menacing, came to rest on Koga, who held out Ami's knife defensively.
The dog raised its lips and bared its gleaming white fangs and growled deeply. It ran forward on three legs and jumped into the air. Its massive body came down in and arch and a huge paw landed were Koga had been a moment before.
Koga slashed at the dogs rear legs with the oversized knife but it only made Sesshoumaru angrier.
Ami, un-none to the others, was climbing up so that she was high enough to jump onto Sesshoumaru's head.
Malon stood frozen to the spot as he gazed at the gigantic dog demon. Its white fur glistened in the fading light. Its red eyes enveloped him and everything. Sesshoumaru really was a monster.
Kogas battle was growing to be more of a game of tag but Koga was already beginning to wear out. Sesshoumarus attacks came closer and closer to hitting there target each time.
"SESSHOUMARU!" a female voice echoed.
The demon halted his assault on the tired Koga and looked to the cliffs that were nearly level with his head. Ami stood there, arms outstretched. The angle of the sun washed over her, as if someone had turned on a spotlight.
'Good, now I've got his attention.'
Ami took a sharp breath and began to sing...
"Like a sirens song," "You rescued me." "In your eyes I will find my way home."
She locked eyes with the demon.
"When the world outside falls all I need is you," "In your heart is where I'll stay."
"The strongest winds," "Can't tear me from you." "With each passing breath," "You've consumed my soul."
"I will sail through the eye of the storm," "Just to die in your arms."
The dog's ears started to droop as it walked closer to her.
"And as the tied shall rise." "Under these stars tonight." "I hold on my heart," "Till I find you again." "Dreaming of a world far away."
Sesshoumaru was right in front of her now, looking sleepily at her.
Ami hummed the instrumental solo between stanzas. As she did so she laid her hand out flat as if offering something to the dog demon.
"The strongest winds," "Can't tear me from you." "With each passing breath," "You've consumed my soul."
"I will sail through the eye of the storm," "Just to die in your arms."
Koga sat down and stared in wonder at the feat he was witnessing. Malon, too, shared his exasperation. It was like Ami was working magic.
Sesshoumaru sat down and rested his head on the overhang next to Ami.
"And as the tied shall rise." "Under these stars tonight." "I hold on my heart," "Till I find you again." "Dreaming of a world far away."
Sesshoumaru wined softly and closed his eyes. His ears perked slightly, intent on listing to Ami's song.
"Oooho I hold on my heart," "Till I find you again." "Dreaming of a world far away!"
Ami drew out this last note, just as the dogs form began to blur and revert to his human like form.
Sesshoumaru's body lay on the cliff as she slept. Ami limped over and looked down on him.
'He's so cute when he's asleep!' she thought.
She kneeled down next to him and then laid her head on his chest. She fell asleep in a matter of moments, right there next to him.
~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~ ~~ ~
Malon and Koga sat dumfounded on the ground. Ami had disappeared from view soon after Sesshoumaru hand melted back.
"Whow!" Koga let out an existed sigh.
"Ya..." agreed Malon.
Koga looked down at the knife Ami had thrown him.
"I really cant believe she gave me something so dull to fend off a monster like that! I could have done better with my claws."
"There is no way in HELL that that knife is dull!" Malon commented.
"Oh ya!" Koga said. "It dint even scratch Sesshoumaru!"
He ran his finger along the blade, trying to prove his point and only succeeded improving the opposite. He now had a long deep gash in his finger to remember it by.
"Told ya!" Malon said childishly as he flopped back in the grass.
"Ami would never walk around with a dull knife!" he said proudly.
"Feh." Was all Koga said as he dropped the knife and flopped back and fell asleep.
The sun finally set and the stars twinkled above there heads. It was midnight before Koga woke up again. Malon had moved to a more defensible position, just in case, and was sitting under a tree. Koga got up sleepily and walked over to join him.
They sat in silence for a while then when the tension was to much for him to bear Malon decided to break it with a question.
"They sure have been up their a long time. What do you think there doing?"
"Oh, probably foolin' around..." Koga answered back sarcastically.
"Hu?" Malon asked not understanding what he meant.
Koga made a gesture and Malon blushed bright red. He stoop up quickly and started yelling at Sesshoumaru.
"You'd better not have laid a hand on Ami! SESSHOUMARU!"
~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~ ~~ ~ On the cliff
Sesshoumarus eyes fluttered open and he looked sleepily at the night sky as the moonlight rained down on him. He pushed himself up into a sitting position and Ami's sleeping form slid down to lay in his lap.
His eyes widened slightly and the corner of his mouth twitched upward in a smile.
Ami moaned quietly as the movement awoke her. She opened her eyes slowly and she looked up into Sesshoumarus face, framed by his white hair that shown brightly in the moonlight.
Their eyes connected for a second, then Ami sat up so that her head no longer lay in his lap.
"Sorry.." she stammered
Ami tried to stand, but her good leg had fallen asleep. She fell back into Sesshoumaru, who caught her with his hand and as he stood he pushed her to her feet, which were regaining there feeling but it would still be difficult for her to climb down the mountain.
Sesshoumaru knew this and without a word scooped her up and leapt quickly down the stoned, his arm keeping he pressed agents his fluffy.
Malon watched the progress as the came down. He ran over to meet them, Koga followed behind.
"Ami! Are you okay?" Malon asked in worried tone.
"Hu? Wha' do ya mean?"
"Nothing!" he blushed
Sesshoumaru set her down and he sanded over Malon and his eyes came to rest on Koga, who tensed under the glare.
"Sesshy?" Ami called, he glanced down at her.
"This is Koga of the wolf demons. His a friend of mine." She said.
She noticed how Sesshoumaru had looked at the wolf demon and hoped that if she told him Koga was a friend (which he was), Sesshoumaru wouldn't kill him.
"Ya, Uh, Ami, Could I." Koga shuffled a bit as she looked at him. "Can I join your party?"
"Hu?" she looked confused. "Whatever for?"
"Your going west right? Well I need to check u p on some friends over that way. So... if you don't..."
He didn't know why he was being so hesitant and polite, he hadn't been this way with Kagome. Of course he wasn't fighting with Sesshoumaru over Ami so that could be it.
"No, No, your welcome to join us! But your hunting your own meat."
She grinned at him, and then at Malon and Sesshoumaru, who were silent.
'We've got almost a full party now! This is great! I wonder who we'll meet next!'
Ami and her company walked or limped off westward in the moonlight, following the canyon.
~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~ ~~ ~ In the outcrop
Karinkshin groggily awoke and stumbled around till he hand all his senses back.
"That BITCH!" he said aloud.
"I'll kill her!" He grinned evilly.
"I'll kill her!"
