Jaken, Rescue?

III

Where was that insufferable child? He turns his back for one moment and she's gone! If his lord finds him without her again he would surely receive a beating for his charge being lost and alone.

He loved serving his master, but for the life of him could not understand why he had to add the child to their group. Why did mi lord grant her a place in his pack was beyond him, but here she was - a human!

The twin headed dragon ignored their masters retainer as they sniffed around for the young girl's scent. They didn't understand the retainer's frustrations around the child it was clear that even though he made her sound like a burden that the imp was worried about the child. If the darting of the eyes and hopeful glances when they had caught a whiff but then lost it again was anything to go by they knew that most of the imp's actions when it came to the child were an absolute front.

Ah raised his head in the air catching the scent of someone familiar and looked to Un. Bringing their noses up they inhaled deeply allowing the smell of wisteria and morning grass to fill them up. Un nudged Ah in the direction of the scent and they began to change directions.

"Ah-Un, you've become excited! Could it be you found Rin-chan? Great let's go before the Master returns!"

Deciding that it would be quicker to fly they took off to the skies. It was beautiful up here the only thing missing were the light sounds of delight from the young miss. She was an abundant source energy, kindness and in return they had grown fond and gentle with the young oona. Her scent was also pleasing and he was grateful that she enjoyed taking baths so she always smelled pleasant.

The scent that they had picked up on was getting stronger as they grew nearer. They could also pick up on a couple of other scents and knew they had been right to follow it.

Ah-Un could see the make shift encampment of his Master's younger brother. He spotted the source of the wisteria and eyed the young woman that was always traveling with them. She was such an odd human but during the few times their group managed to collide she was always kind and generous. The young Oona had also grown on them.

Un grabbed the retainer by the collar and began their decent into the camp. Ah rolled his eyes as the hanyou began shouting in their direction at their intrusion.

Placing the imp down the dragon turned to walk off. He was a dragon but he wasn't stupid. Where he was going the imp would not be needed.

"What the hell are you doing here toad!"

"You! insolent whelp! I don't have to answer to you. I only answer to the great Lord Sesshomaru! Now where is Rin?"

Inuyasha's brow ticked in irritation and balled his hand into a fist. The imps voice was already getting on his nerves. Hoping to get some silence he decided punching the toad on the head would achieve the results he was looking for. He watched the imp rub his temples as the hanyou crossed his arms with smirk looking down at him.

"Inuyasha, maybe we should find a way to handle this amicably. After all there is no need to fight," the young monk interrupted before Jaken could go off with a retort.

"Keh, whatever," and turned his back on the pair to wait by a tree for the women and children to come back. He could smell that dragon was not too far off from them. Probably went straight to the baths.

"Master Jaken, you must be here to collect Rin-chan. She should be back from her bath soon. Would you like some tea while you wait?" Adding on a small smile to calm the hostilities he could feel the shift in the imps aura.

"At least SOMEONE in your encampment can show respect for their betters."
