Jaken Falls ill

[Sesshomaru is traveling in a forest. Rin is sitting on A-Un while Jaken pulls it along. Sakura is following a little ways behind them not wanting to be any where near Sesshomaru as much as possible. Remembering what he has done to her like it was fresh. [Sesshomaru rushes towards Sakura grabbing her wrist burning her wrist with his poison claws as she cries out in pain then he swaps his claws across her face knocking her out] Sakura touches her face from where the scars were after she healed her wound. Rin's stomach was growling]

''Lord Sesshomaru, Rin is hungry. can we look for something to eat? says Rin

''Stop whining, Rin. there's plenty of food around but you have to wait until we get out of this forest it's dangerous to search for food now says Jaken

''He is right...This forest would be too dangerous to hunt for food now [She makes a wave of her hand as a apple appears in her hand giving it to her] ''There you go this will hold you over until we find a safe place to find food says Sakura

[Rin was intrigued as she takes the apple from Sakura eating it Jaken was shocked at how really gifted this girl was.]

''Lady Sakura...how is it you were able to do that? says Jaken

''Um...I really don't know myself I just find out that I can do these things when I was little...I guess it comes with what I am says Sakura

''Oh...you are a gifted one...what else can you do I wonder? says Jaken

''Well you know about me possessing Priestess magic my Mother was a Priestess and my Father was a Fire demon that would make me both Priestess and Demon says Sakura

''Hmm...says Jaken

[Rin's stomach growls again.] Sister Sakura...I'm still hungry says Rin

[Sakura looks at her] ''You are still hungry...says Sakura

[Rin jumps ff A-Un. Jaken is shocked]

''I'll be back says Rin

''Hey, Rin says Jaken

''Jaken...[Jaken stops waving his fists madly and looks at Sesshomaru] ''Let her be. says Sesshomaru

''I don't believe it says Jaken

[Sakura follows after Rin to make sure she is safe. Sesshomaru watches her until she disappears. Rin stops by a tree and looks at the Mushrooms growing on the root. Sakura comes beside her.]

''Be careful Rin...some of these can be Poisoned says Sakura

''Ok says Rin

[Suddenly the Soil moves...Sakura alarmed picks up Rin as a Demon comes out of the ground just missing them. Rin screams...Sesshomaru and Jaken waiting for Rin and Sakura hears the screams and runs towards them. Sakura is attacking the Demon's hand when Sesshomaru jumps out of the trees and slashes the demon's arm. Sakura is stunned seeing Sesshomaru rescue her. Jaken comes running.]

''That was a wonderful save, Lord Sesshomaru! says Jaken

''Lord Sesshomaru is the best! says Rin

[Sakura gasps the demon hand transforms into a bunch of poison insects]

''Those are Naraku's Poisonous Insects says Sakura

''Step back. Naraku left these pests behind. [The insects morph back into a hand.] ''Jaken. the Insects nest should be nearby says Sesshomaru

''Yes, leave it to me says Jaken

[The Demon hand attacks Sesshomaru, who blocks with Tokijin. He then springs off a tree trunk, twirls and slashes the arm into two. the Poison insects appear and fly off. Sesshomaru scoffs.]

''[turns around.] ''Jaken...says Sesshomaru

[Rin, Jaken and Sakura are looking for the nest in the forest.]

[Pointing] ''Jaken! that's the insects nest! says Rin

[Jaken makes some sounds. Suddenly a horde of insects appear behind Rin. Sakura blocks their attacks with her Fire ball]

''Rin, get down! says Sakura

''Yes! says Rin

[She squats as Sakura and Jaken blast the insects with there fire power] ''take this...the Staff of the skulls [Jaken spews fire from his human head staff and burns some insects. He runs to Rin and burns more of them.] ''Little Pests! Rin, don't lift your head yet. [thinking] ''If I protect Rin, Lord Sesshomaru will treat me better says Jaken

[touched, thinking] ''Jaken...says Rin

[More insects come out from the hive and fly towards Jaken]

''What? Still alive? says Jaken

[Swings his staff. Sakura appears and raises her sword. Jaken is worried Sakura swings Qetsusiaga and Jaken Immediately ducks. the evil aura from the sword kills the Insects and the Hive. The tree that the hive was on falls too...]

''You saved us, Lady Sakura...says Jaken

''thank you, Sakura...says Rin

[Suddenly some Poison insects appear behind Jaken and stab him on the arm. Jaken Panics...Sakura and Rin gasps]

''Jaken says Sakura

[The Insects fly away. as Sesshomaru watches the Insects fly away.]

''If I follow them...they will lead me to him says Sesshomaru

''Lord Sesshomaru says Rin

[Jaken wincing in pain, tears off his sleeve. two stings are on his arm.]

''Sakura! pull these out! says Jaken

[Sakura holds his arm and pulls two of them out apprehensively. However the last one enter's Jaken's flesh.]

''Oh no...it went in your skin...I managed to pull out two of them...but don't worry Jaken I will heal you says Sakura

[Jaken was beginning to sweat as she places her hand over his arm It begin to glow blue as she heals him Jaken's eyes fill with tears from the girl helping him and he was feeling a whole lot better as he sighs in relief.]

''Thanks Sakura...I thought I was dead says Jaken

''it's a good thing I am here to help you guys [She reaches inside her Bag for some of the berries that she picked a while back.] ''I need you to eat these Jaken...they are antidote for any poison...it will also keep you from getting poisoned again...[She gives it to him and a cup of water.] ''there drink the water with it says Sakura

[Jaken gobbles up the berries and drinks the water to wash down the horrible flavor of the berries then lays down. Sakura looks around for Sesshomaru realizing he must have left to follow Naraku's insects]

''I'm sorry Jaken...because of me...says Rin

''I-Idiot! I didn't do it for you [throws the sleeve on the ground.] ''I did it for Lord Sesshmaru! says Jaken

[Sakura sighs as she sits down against a tree placing her hand on the ground to make a Fire with her magic she takes her bag that had Fruits and begin giving some to Jaken and Rin.]

''I guess we wait on Sesshomaru to get back! says Sakura

[Inuyasha walks through a field with his friends Kagome, Miroku, Sango and Shippo along with Kiara]

''Is this the right way, Kagome? says Miroku

''I think so...Inuyasha, isn't this the right way? says Kagome

''[Spiteful] Inuyasha can't remember anything says Inuyasha

[Smiling] Hey, are you still angry about that? I'm sorry about what happened. says Kagome

[exasperated thinking] ''She's so insincere...[sniffs the air] ''this small. says Inuyasha

''What's wrong, Inuyasha? says Kagome

''those are...Naraku's poisonous insects [two Poison insects without stings fly towards them] They're flying by themselves [unsheathes Tetsusaiga] '' Come on says Inuyasha

''wait, Inuyasha! Kagome. are there any Sacred Jewel Fragments nearby? says Miroku

''I don't sense anything. says Kagome

''There're no puppets around either. those bugs might be returning to where Naraku is. says Mirkou

''if we don't kill them, We can follow them. says Sango

[Sheathes Tetsusaiga] ''It's good to know where Naraku is! says Inuyasha

[Inuyasha and the others chases the insects Suddenly they fall to the ground.]

''They're falling! says Shippo

''What? says Inuyasha

''Did they die? says Shippo

[Everyone stops near the fallen insects. Inuyasha kicks one of them slightly]

''What's going on? says Inuyasha

[Suddenly a ball of light appears and stops in front of them. Sesshomaru appears]

''Se-Sesshomaru? says Inuyasha

''Did you kill them? The Poisonous insects says Sesshomaru

''Poisonous insects? those annoying bugs? says Inuyasha

''Ignorant Bastard says Sesshomaru

''Huh? says Inuyasha

''I was using them to search for Naraku's whereabouts says Sesshomaru

''Same here, but they died on their own. says Inuyasha

''The Ugly bastard with the same excuses says Sesshomaru

''Kah! what excuses? it's true! says Inuyasha

that's right, he's telling the truth says Kagome

[Unsheathes Tetsusaiga] ''Kagome, stay back, He won't listen to us! says Inuyasha

''Inuyasha. I'm not in a very good mood today. I won't go easy on you today says Sesshomaru

''Stop talking Nonsense! You'll regret what you said later! says Inuyasha

[Sesshomaru and Inuyasha sprint towards each other. their blades clash and they start fighting.]

''Please stop it, you two! says Kagome

''it's useless says Shippo

''those brothers can never get along says Miroku

''That's right says Sango

[Inuyasha and Sesshomaru continue fighting.]

[The Woods]

[Sakura is sitting against a tree when she senses something she looks at Rin who was busy looking for flowers and Jaken was sleeping on A-Un she gets up looking around Rin turns concerned as she takes her hand.]

''Sakura...what's wrong? says Rin

''I...I think I am sensing jewel shards...says Sakura

[Jaken wakes up hearing her.] ''Jewel shards...don't waste your time worrying about them...besides Sesshomaru wouldn't want you wondering off. says Jaken

''Still if it's a Jewel shard I can't let it go to Naraku's hands later...[she takes out her Pendant giving it to Jaken and Rin] ''If you want to come follow me but this will protect you just incase says Sakura

[Sakura places Rin and Jaken on A-Un then she jumps in the air changing into her mediam size Dog Demon form then follows where the Jewel shards are...]

[Back at the Fight with Sesshomaru and Inuyasha as the rest of his friends look on.]

''Take that! Wind Scar! [Inuyasha leaps and throws a Wind Scar at Sesshomaru who cuts it away with Tokijin. he then zooms in front of Inuyasha and knocks Tetsusaiga out of his hands] ''What? says Inuyasha

''[Tetsusaiga strikes the ground and reverts to its rusty state. Inuyasha crashes to the ground. Sesshomaru points the tip of Tokijin at Inuyasha's throat.] ''Fight's over. prepare to die, Inuyasha says Sesshomaru

''Keh! I'm not going to beg you to spare my life! says Inuyasha

''Really? says Sesshomaru

[Runs to them] ''wait! You want to know Naraku's whereabouts? This is what we've heard. his Presence is in the northeast direction. says Kagome

''K-Kagome says Inuyasha

''Northeast Direction? that's all I needed to know. [walks off] ''Your life's been spared. Inuyasha says Sesshomaru

''Wait, Sesshomaru! why are you after Naraku? says Inuyasha

''I have a score to settle with him says Sesshomaru

[Inuyasha and his friends watch as he walks away.]

[The Mountains]

[A Group of Demons move towards Rin and Jaken on A-Un when Sakura uses her Sword she senses the shards on these demons...She jumps swirling around with her sword]

'' water Dragon...Attack! says Sakura

[Sakura releases a Giant Water Dragon towards the demons...killing them she looks over at where they are now ashes and sees five Shards she was surprised it was that many as Jaken and Rin drop down from the sky and lands.]

''So you were right there are Jewel Shards...but there is no sign of Naraku anywhere says Jaken

[She nods looking at Jaken when behind them came another demon who was prepared to unleash a blast at them she takes out her sword when out of nowhere another blast hits it]

''Dragon Strike! says Sesshomaru

[He was standing on the ledge of a cliff staring down at them more at Sakura with a angry expression]

''S-Sesshomaru! says Sakura

[He drops down before them seeing the demons that are dead all around then at the Jewel shards in her hands...]

''What are you doing here? says Sesshomaru

''Sakura sensed the presence of the Jewel shard eariler thinking it might be Naraku she followed them here where there was a bunch of demons...she took care of them with one shot my lord says Jaken

''Silence Jaken...[He looks at Sakura] ''You are not allowed to go out on your own not without me...says Sesshomaru

''What?...I can take care of myself...besides you ran off eariler what do you expect us to do? says Sakura

[He narrows his eyes at her] ''I expected you to Obey me...You're life is endangered because of Naraku...The Jewel is no longer your concern says Sesshomaru

''B-but...Sesshomaru...says Sakura

''Enough...We will speak of this when we are alone...[to Jaken and Rin] ''We will find shelter for the night and set out in the morning says Sesshomaru

[He turns to walk away as Jaken and Rin follow looking at Sakura who was clenching her hands in a fists upset that Sesshomaru was trying to control her like always...she waits until he is further ahead before she follows him...]

[It is Night as Sesshomaru finally found a Place for them to settle down for the night. Jaken takes A-Un and they both lay down together as Rin sleeps on a thick Black Fur that Sakura gave her a while back which was warm to cover up with during cold nights. Sesshomaru turns to Sakura who's back was to him he narrows his eyes at her.]

''We will rest here for the night [to Sakura] ''Sakura...come with me [She bites her lips closing her eyes as she follows him through the thick grass until the grass leads to a Hot Spring she was surprised looking at the Beautiful water fall flowing into it she looks at Sesshomaru.] ''Explain yourself...says Sesshomaru

''I've got nothing to explain to you Sesshomaru...You saw the Jewel shards the answer was in front of you...I sensed them and found them...[she clenches her fists glaring at him] ''What's the difference with you running off after some stupid Poison Insects but when I go after the Jewel shards for leads to Naraku...I don't hear the end of it says Sakura

[He turns to her with anger in his eyes] ''Naraku has been hunting you since the moment you shown him your powers a while back...He will not stop until he finds you and captures you...I will not allow that to happen says Sesshomaru

''This should make you happy...[He narrows his eyes at that] ''If I lure Naraku to you...it should be making you happy but of course once again I am a fool thinking that anything I can do to make you happy back fires...just like with the sword...[she looks at his sword sadly] ''You haven't even used it yet...just goes to show what an Idiot I am for even trying to care about you...says Sakura

[Sesshomaru was silent hearing her words knowing that he has truly hurt her for his actions of when he rejected her gift.]

''You are not to go anywhere without me...There will be no defiance from you on this any longer...says Sesshomaru

[Sakura growls closing her eyes with angry tears] ''What do you care what happens to me...You don't care about me...[She turns her back to him walking away towards the hot spring] ''I hate you...just go away [She flashes her hands behind her pushing him away from her creating a huge blue barrier He narrows his eyes at this as she goes behind a rock to take off her clothes and gets into the Hot Spring she sinks into the water and begins to cry. Sesshomaru looks down at the sword Sakura gave him and takes it out of the sheath he points it towards the barrier making a hole big enough for him to enter. Sakura was facing the Rock wall crying against it she was angry for letting Sesshomaru hurt her she felt a ripple in her barrier and was stunned alarmed when it goes back to normal she turns to see Sesshomaru she wraps her arms around her to keep him from peeking she turns her back]''I don't want you here says Sakura

[He begins to take off his clothes seeing that she wasn't facing him seeing that he needed to give her some space but he wanted to make sure that she understands that her Protection was important to him.]

''I want your word that you won't put yourself at risk again Do not look for Naraku without me. says Sesshomaru

[She sighs closing her eyes as a tear falls down her face] ''Sesshomaru I will not go after Naraku again...so you can just go I want to be alone says Sakura

[Sesshomaru stares at her as she turns back around he places his hands on her hair then he turns back around and walks back to Rin and Jaken]
