Chapter Eleven: Underwater

Trapped, that's all you could call Foxx and Kagome at the moment, for they were cornered at the edge of a sixteen foot drop that fed to a lake that was a marvelous dark blue. The demons that trapped them were lizard demons, intent on taking them back to their leader who wanted them to be his concubines. Of course, little did they know, he was already dead due to the fatal strike caused by InuTashio, who was severely worried at the moment.

The group watched them from below, as the dark black and brown images they were to them. The women's minds were on high alert, looking for means of escape. They looked at each other for a moment and wanted to smack themselves silly. The lake! Of course! Lizard demons couldn't swim!

The group watched helplessly as the two women took a running leap, holding hands, off the cliff, and into the lake's depths.

"Foxx!" InuTashio shouted, his eyes full of panic, when he took one step into the water he yelped and then began to freak out. The water was FREEZING!!!! What about Foxx? Was she okay?! What about his son's intended?! Kagome! What about her?! ACK!

Sesshomaru was pacing the water's edge, why wasn't Kagome coming out?! Was she alright? From his father's reaction to the water he knew it was ice cold, so he wouldn't even be able to save himself from the cold. Even though he was a demon, it doesn't mean they can't go up in flames or freeze to death, it would just take longer.

When the women hit the water, their breath was knocked out of them like she hit cement. It hurt terribly, Kagome didn't have to worry about dying, she could, as they found out, breath underwater, though she was out cold, sinking slowly into the dark depths of the icy lake.

Foxx tried to swim up but found she was tangled in some strong seaweed. Her lungs screamed for air as she held her breath and her vision grew blurry, one thought raced through her head; Was she going to die? Her breath left her body and the last few bubbles reached the surface, unknown to the rest as a cry for help.

InuTashio tensed, something wasn't quite right besides the fact his intended and his son's intended were in the water. Screw cold! He had to save his mate-to-be! As he stood an unfamiliar hand stopped him, making him poise for an attack. 'Well I'll be…a water nymph!' The nymph's wide green eyes and short periwinkle hair made his porcelain skin look very fragile as his head shook back and forth, waving his hands in front of him frantically. (Sort of like: "Don't shoot! Don't shoot! It's me!") InuTashio lowered his hands and the male nymph sighed in relief.

"A-Allow me to retrieve your intendeds……." He stuttered. (His voice is like Sasuke's from Naruto! I don't own that show or Manga either! XD) InuTashio and Sesshomaru nodded, the nymph racing into the water, diving in once he was deep enough.

The nymph looked around and he spotted something shimmering in the distance.

Flashback

"Daddy! Daddy!" Foxx shouted, her small footsteps carefully placed in her father's workshop.

"Yes daughter! Come in! I have something for you." Her father said happily and a seven-year old Foxx made her way over to him. He pulled her into his lap and slipped a delicate-looking necklace around her neck. Foxx looked at the small mirror he kept in there to see the full out view of some of his carvings and saw a beautiful two-chained silver necklace that had an emerald half and a ruby half.

"Oh Daddy! It's wonderful!" Foxx smiled and hugged him.

"It's for when you meet a nymph." He announced and winked, making her laugh.

"Daddy! Those don't exist!" Foxx giggled out.

"Ah but they do. This necklace is very special. When you're in distress, it separates, only if you're underwater of course, and one half goes to the nymph as a gift of loyalty and friendship." He said. "As long as you both wear yours, it will form into a tattoo on you neck to your shoulder, and you will be able to breathe underwater."

"Really?" She asked with wide eyes.

"Yes now go off and play." He laughed and she made her way out.

End flashback

The nymph swam over with fluid grace and agility, spotting the emerald part of the necklace. He grabbed it and jammed it over his neck, it fusing with his skin. Foxx lay unconscious as the water filled her lungs and her body filled with air again. Her emerald eyes snapped open and she noticed a burning sensation on her neck. She looked down and saw a glowing red dragon tattoo that trailed around her neck and to her shoulder.

"But that means……" Foxx murmured and looked around.

'There she is- She's tangled in a Cayucos's tentacles… I hate these things…' He grabbed two big kelp leaves and tied one around his mouth and nose. He then swam over and saw her tugging at the 'seaweed'. "That won't work miss."

"H-huh?! Well why not?!" Foxx said stopping.

"It's a Cayucos demon's tentacles. It's a death demon. They trap people who can't breathe underwater and drown them, if they don't get them that way they release the toxins, which you would have made it do if you kept pulling." He stated. "Here put this around your mouth and nose, it will keep you safe when I cut it's tentacles off you."

Foxx did as she said and spotted Kagome swimming to the surface of the lake. He pulled out a dagger and made a swift cut, grabbing her by the arm and swimming up and away from the Cayucos.

"I have your intended! She is safe!" He called and InuTashio shot up on high alert, spotting Foxx swimming to shore, shivering.

When she got out he embraced her and then backed up, pulling out his extra hoari and wrapping that and his tails around her before embracing her again.

The nymph walked out of the water and the water looked as if it never touched him, it rolling off. Kagome raced over to Sesshomaru and he copied his father before kissing her lips.

"I thought you two were goners!" Shippo said and InuYasha hit him on the head, getting hit by Kikyo who got a high-five from Sango.

"You're nice and warm….." Foxx sighed in InuTashio's embrace and he chuckled, sitting with her on his lap and close to his chest. Miroku and Shippo started a fire close to the couples and they basked in the warmth, sighing in contentment. Sango giggled and grabbed a blanket, walking over to the nymph.

"Would you like a blanket?" She asked smiling sweetly.

"Yes please. My name is Ayden, nice to meet you all-" He started but stopped as two loud smacks rang through the clearing. Ayden stared in the direction with wide eyes, seeing two smiling inu's holding their cheeks. "Did they just…."

"Yes they did, but that's because they groped them." Sango said Bud howled with laughter. Kagura laughed and leaned against Joshi who blushed a terribly deep red.

"And he had the guts to use both…" Kagome mumbled blushing. Only the demons of the group heard her and they laughed louder. "Don't make me grope all of you!" They grew silent.

"Actually Kagome, I wouldn't mind that in the least." Sesshomaru said smiling perversely. Another smack rang through the clearing and they began to laugh at a blushing Kagome.

"So………… do you have any abilities Foxx? You never really use them." Kohaku asked and she perked grinning.

"I have………. X-Ray vision!" She stated and his face flushed.

"I'm serious!" He said blushing as Rin laughed.

"Okay….okay….. Zee ability to sense skittles!" She announced louder and InuYasha snorted, Kikyo holding back peals of laughter. "And the ability to act like InuYasha! 'NO-WAIT! K- Insert face-plant here!"

Kikyo howled in laughter, clutching her sides as did Kagome, how accurate!

"Not. Funny." InuYasha growled and InuTashio growled at him warning him not to growl at Foxx.

"Fine!" Foxx huffed. "I can speak in crow! AHO! AHO!" She said flapping her arms like wings. InuTashio and Sesshomaru laughed louder and Ayden joined, thinking it was safe to now.

"Erm…..Zee ability to exotic dance on a tightrope!" Foxx shouted and Kagome, Bud, and InuYasha laughed louder falling over, Kagome into Sesshomaru's chest.

"The ability to sing my abc's backwards in C major!" She said smiling and Kagome paused.

"I have the ability to make Sesshomaru bow to meh!" Kagome said and Sesshomaru looked at her with an eyebrow raised.

"Oh really!" Sesshomaru exclaimed unsure.

"Yesh." Kagome said and laid her head on his thigh, looking up at him with a sweet look. He closed his eyes tightly and tried to resist her, but failed and kissed her.

"By gods he did it!" Foxx said in a fake British accent.

"Did what?" Miroku and Sango chorused.

"She made him bow to kiss her!" InuYasha said applauding her.
