Well, I was going to use this as a notice to tell you guys that I am posting soon, but then I got to thinking... I hate it when I see a new chapter up on a story that I am really into, only to have the author say that they will be back soon... I'm thinking... If I am going to do that, I might as well just write the chapter any way. So here it is... Spits 'n Giggles is BACK BABY!
O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o
"Rin?" a soft female voice calls though the front door of the large home. Kagome peeks out through the dark, moon-lit filled night to expect to find her friend on the front porch. Finding nothing, she decides to venture out into the back yard and starts to cry louder. "Rin, where'd you go?" she asks with care in her words, only to be followed by a very protective dog demon. He stay silent as he follows closely behind before being over run my Rin's strong and close scent deeper within the shadows. He fastens his pace until he finds a very large shed. As Kagome catches up to the fast demon, her eyes adjust just in time to see a frozen Sesshomaru hovering a collapsed Rin.
Gasping in shock, Kagome immediately heads back towards the house to warn the others, knowing that he will stay with her. Sesshomaru sighs deeply as he swoops the cold body in his arms and holds her while leaping effortlessly back to the door of the large home. He holds her as close as he can, barely feeling her heartbeat. The whole house is in a panic as he just stands like a statue as they prepare a proper surface for her on a large and lengthy couch in the living area. As he gently lies her down, right away, he starts to check for bumps and scratches as his father lifts her wrist and stares at his watch.
"Well, she has a pulse, but it's not very strong. She is just unconscious... Her heart may be lacking a little oxygen, but it is mainly due to shock. She will just have to rest. Put pillows under her head to increase the blood flow." he says as Sango snatches two pillows off of the other couch.
"I'm calling a doctor," Izayoi says as she rushes out.
Sesshomaru cradles her head with great care as Mr. Inutakahashi slides the pillows under her head. But while he does so, he suddenly notices something dark around her neck underneath her choker. Following the pattern down her collar, he rips to choker off, to everyone's surprise. As everyone gasps, Sesshomaru traces what looks like to be finger marks with his softened claws feeling the warmth of her wounded skin. As they darken with every moment, his eyes do the same.
"Oh my," Mr. Inutakahashi whispers observing the marks.
"Oh, God..." Kagome chokes on her words holding to her neck. "Someone tried to..."
"More like something," Miroku added.
"And who else than the heartless bastard himself?" Sango says in a quiet rage as she holds her arms in worry.
"And we have no proof," Mr. Inutakahashi continues with his two sense.
"No proof..?" Sesshomaru barely speaks in such anger as he only caresses her throat with a tender touch.
"No one saw it happen, son. We couldn't have-"
"I should have-"
"He's a coward, Sesshomaru. Therefore he will carry out his plans in a cowardly way."
"Why did I not stay by her..."
"Son-"
SLAM
Mr. Inutakahashi sighs in remorse as he hears his eldest run from afar.
"Inuyasha, will you please go after your brother for me?" he lightly commands, picking up the girl.
"Damn it all-SESSHOMARU!" he runs.
"Girls, please follow me."
O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o
"What the fuck is wrong with you, Onigumo? I practically gift wrap that little bitch for you, and you come back with nothing more than a boner kill?!" Kikyo shouts as she burst through his bedroom doors only to see him sitting on his bed putting together a simple hand gun.
"Well, a good morning star-shine to you, too, love." he smiles as he grabs a rag by his side and starts to polish his toy. "Oh, and it's Naraku now. There is no need to dig up any past lives, now... You know that," he states as he stands to meet his lady friend with a dark and sadistic gaze. Belittled, her eyes grow wide as she sits in silence to his large stature. "Unless you need a little-" he comes close to her ear. "-punishment," he hisses suddenly shoving the gun to her throat.
Shaking in sudden fear, Kikyo simply shakes her head 'no' with a gulp. "N-no...No sir..." she refuses to make eye contact. He only tisks at her answer.
"Well that's a damn shame," he says lightheartedly as he stands upright and tosses the empty gun on his bed and sits leisurely. "I was hoping for a little release." he says, femininely looking to his nails. "You are my second best after all." he says knowing that his words would hurt.
Indeed, she did grow in anger, but she let it subside as she retorts. "Likewise, my love," she calms in rebuttal. "But isn't that why we agreed to-" she starts as she grins, slowly guiding her hands from the peek of her short boot up to her upper thigh, oh so slowly as they eventually make their way in between her legs, only to have them cross with a tease and a blush. "Eliminate... our- competition?" she giggles, biting her lower lip.
He lifts an eyebrow, seemingly unaffected by her torture. "Why, yes we have, my dear."
"So why the hell you blue-ballin' me?" her anger melts through her innocence. He chuckles at her insolence.
"Patience..." again he hisses as he snakes his way closer to her. "-is a virtue my dear," he finished, hovering over. "we will get what we want, soon enough." he smiles down to her, yet she is not amused. Instead, she starts to slowly glide her hands up his legs.
"I just can't wait for my victory reward after we get those two... fuck-tards out of our way," she smiles grabbing his shirt and pulling him down to her level. They are nose to nose as she holds to his tie and teases him with a kiss.
"Dead.." he growls in discontentment as he rubs his hands in between her legs only to spread them by force causing her to let go of him in a gasp of pleasure. "Right..." he stands and walks away.
"More cock-blocking... And you are the man..." she huffs in defeat.
"You're just desperate,"
"Desperate to get that asshole killed... NOW!" she stands in rage as her playful smile fades into pure anger. "Why the hell do you insist on playing stupid and pointless games? I'm sick of this! Get your dick out of your mouth, get your shit together, and kill those motherfuckers NOW!" she says as she attempts to shove him off balance. But she fails... epically, and he only chuckles at her bravery.
Instead of walking away, he turns with a demented grinning irritation, swiftly grabs her neck and slams her to the ground in one shove. He binds her between his gets and forces her head to look at him.
"I'll tell you what, you fucking little princess, I have a better idea. Why don't you do it, huh? Yeah, why don't you barge in a home with three dog demons, a priest, and a former Japanese army General and see how long it takes for you to burn in hell?! Huh!?" He spits at her as she squeals in pain. "You need just an ounce of patience, and somewhat of a brain before committing suicide and going after such a rigorous task such as this. With merchandise this valuable, we need to be swift, smart, and have a good plan, not some dumb ass "charge" plan, got it, my love?" His anger starts to bleed through his pores. Scared to death, her eyes only bulge as she only nods in agreement. "Good," he lets her go, stands and leaves her behind without a second thought.
O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o
"What are we supposed to do, Pops?"
"We can't just sit around and watch this happen to her."
"We need to do something, now."
.
You are coming back with me.
.
"Don't worry, we are going to figure out something."
.
And you are going to stay with me.
.
"Let's talk to Sesshomaru, I'm sure he has at least a dozen plans."
.
And if you don't...
.
"It is not wise to bother him at the moment. He is extremely fragile right now."
.
...I am going to kill every last one of them.
.
"We are just as upset as he is, though. We want justice, too."
.
And do you know who the last one will be?
.
"He can't protect her like he would like to. And we don't know if he will be able to."
.
That's right...
.
"What do you mean?"
.
Your puppy love.
.
"I know what he means..."
.
Then I'll kill you-
.

Rin Struggles with her thoughts... Half awake, half asleep, she doesn't know what is better, her fantasy or her reality? Either way she is plagued with this demon who haunts her everywhere she goes. She can remember his threat to her as clear as day if she doesn't choose to go back with him. So what can she do? she is helpless with this battle that awaits her when she awakens. But she just doesn't want to wake up. What does she do? She will not let anything happen to the people that care for her the most in her world, but she will sooner die if she has to go back with him. She can't do it. She won't do it... So what can she do?
She can't see her friends suffer...
She wont...
No.
She has to save her family.
She has to run away.
But... can she?
Shedding a silent tear, she remains a silent body, pretending to sleep until they all leave. Not wanting to do what she has to, she doesn't utter a word as she sheds another tear. Yet as they all start to leave, someone opens the door and barges in.
"Sesshomaru..."
"I smell fear," he interrupts his father. He looks straight to the sleeping Rin.
"We all fear for her, son-"
"I smell Rin's fear," his eyes narrow to her as she struggles to stay still. She doesn't want to face her reality... yet, her nightmares aren't too great themselves. But she stay silent in fear and loathe, hoping that they will just all go away so she can just be alone. As she sheds a final tear, it is instantly wiped away by a soft and warm hand that only soothes her cheek.
"Leave," he commands as he sits at her side. All standing bodies eventually leave them in peace as she hears the door gently close.
As the silence fills the room, she gasps for breath as if she just came out from under water, her eyes bulge open and she springs from the bed as if she just rose from the dead. With tears continuing to come down her cheeks, she starts to cry as she is pulled into his arms for protection.
Breathing deeply, she calms as she grabs the collar of his shirt for dear life. She calms and finds comfort within the warmth as he just hugs her. She sighs in a sudden contentment, completely okay with the feeling of security.
Then she starts to ask herself why...
Why is he holding her? Why does he have so much concern for her? Why the hell does he care all the sudden? Where did all of this come from? Just a day ago he was saying that she is unstable and shouldn't be making any rational decisions, and now he's the one showing affection? One moment he tells her to leave him alone, and the next he is kissing her on stage and hugging her tightly?
What the hell?
Make up your mind!
Why do you care about me?
Realizing what is happening, regardless of how wonderful it feels, she starts to attempt to push away.
"What are you doing?" she asks as she pushes on his abdomen. "What is wrong with you? Let go of me!" she tried and tried to push but he stayed firm, growling at times to stay close to her.
"No," he says with a voice so dark...
Almost too dark...
dark enough to be...
Her heart drops.
...
Her mind is instantly flashed back to a different image. She is suddenly blinded by her memories, feeling everything as if Naraku was holding her tightly. She looks around and instead of seeing Sesshomaru, she see's the bastard himself.
Her mind screams... It's Naraku!
"Oh my God..." she is terrified. Her eyes grow twice her size as she loses her breath... "I'm sorry... P-please... PLEASE NO!" she suddenly shouts.
"Rin,"
"No! N-no! Please don't hurt me! Why are you doing this?" she says squirming in what she thinks is Naraku's grasp.
"Rin, listen to me,"
"Stop it! Let me go..." she muffles in her words as she eventually wiggles from his grasp. But he is quick as he holds her arms.
"Rin,"
"Stop it! Leave me alone! Stop it! Leave me alone! Please... PLEASE! NO! STOP IT! " she shakes and shoves and does everything she can to escape.
"Rin,"
"STOP IT!" she screams as her eyes readjust to her reality. Everyone bursts in as they see a struggling Rin cry and sob. She hiccups as she looks into the cooling ember eyes of the dog demon that holds her tightly. She trembles in utter fear as she is sure that it is Sesshomaru as he hold's her head and pulls her in.
Willingly accepting the invitation, she hugs him back, practically clawing his back to hold on as she only rest her head on his chest as she mentally notes her memories.
Everyone sat in utter shock. The girls simply walk away as Mr. Inutakahashi just grabbed a pen, a note pad, and a chair and sat next to the two.
"Why is this happening to me?" she whispers as a lonely tear just peaked at the edge of her tear duct as she continues to tremble.
"Rin," Mr. Inutakahashi leans back with pen and paper. With great reluctance, she looks to Sesshomaru's father as she tries to calm herself down.
"Yes sir?" she says wiping her tears away.
"I want you to do something for me. It is going to be difficult, and you may not want to because you are afraid. But you need to do this, not only for yourself, but for us too." she only nods awaiting for his request... "Tell me everything."
O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o
I know, I know... I friggin know that this is a short chapter... But you have to realize that I am really just pulling all of this out of my rear end right now... I still have MAJOR writers block, and at this point, I am going to have to truck through the writers block by writing out my... writers block... YES THAT MAKES SENSE!
Okay! I am back and I am kickin'! I am SO sorry that I have taken so long. But I am a senior this year, and senior year is kicking my ass right into shape. I WILL have this story done by the time I start college, I assure you, because I don't even know HOW I am going to do this AND college AND work AND life AND fanfiction. So you can take solace in the fact that this won't last forever.
NOW! I am on my Christmas vacation, so that means at least one more chapter OTHER than this one. I know that its a bummer since I am so behind, but I have not forgotten about my little chickens, and I am, at the very least, contributing something!
I hope that you liked this chapter. I know that its no fun to watch Kikyo and Naraku flirt, and see Rin accidentally mistake Sesshomaru for Naraku for a moment... Well you know what? YOLO!
No, really. I can't wait to kick the crap out of Naraku, and yes... It is happening soon.
No, I am not going to do the review and watcher...thing... Frankly, I am too tired, and I am too lazy, and I highly doubt that I still have readers because of how long I have neglected my story anyway. But, I can always hope!
Well, I hope that I get at least one review before the world ends... XD
Thank you for reading. I am working on the next chapter as we speak! :)
