Ok, so this was going to be the last chapter...but something in the back of my brain kept nagging me while writing it. And then I was watching 'General Hospital' and I thought to myself "Wow they can have a single story go on for weeks..." Voila! It hit me! New twist! and it actually makes sense.. Enjoy! And please please please review! Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha.

Predictable Chaos - Show Me The Way

Raven strands of hair flew with the direction of the wind as a lone figure stood with a fired bow in her grasp. Kagome could hardly breathe. Naraku grabbed for the arrow lodged in his chest, but fell to the ground in defeat. His shadowy hair covered his face, but agony could be read all over his body. Kagome stood as still as she possibly could until the evil hanyou disappeared from the Earth. The possessed arrows fell from their positions in front of the child and Inuyasha.
Sesshomaru gracefully stood up from his crouching postion and wiped the dirt from his pants. He slowly walked towards the peasant girl, picked her up and began to walk away from the scene, leaving his brother, Kikyo, Kagome, and the past few days' events behind him. He stopped beside Kikyo, as if he was mocking her for falling under Naraku's spell.
"Kagome...what do you plan on doing with the jewel." Kagome was finally pulled from her trance and dropped her bow to the ground.
"I..um...guess give it to Inuyasha when he comes to.." She glanced down at the hidden pocket and felt the jewel throb with energy. Sesshomaru gave a sarcastic sigh.
"I don't think that's a very wise decision."
"What should I do then? I mean, he's the one who wanted it in the first place. I wanted nothing to do wi-"
"Think about how Narkau left him."
"Naraku's dead."
"Maybe so, but he caused Inuyasha to turn into his demon form. I've noticed it's getting harder and harder for him to return to his normal state of being and mind."
"Yes.."
"Do you honestly think he will take kindly to you and Kikyo being here? Especially since you hold the Shikon no Tama? He will more than likely kill you when he comes back to." Kagome stared at the ground. She hadn't thought of this. Everytime Inuyasha had been pushed to the edge, it became more and more difficult for him to retreat from that edge. Her foot dug into the ground. Confronting Sesshomaru like this always made her uneasy. For all she knew, he could strike out at any moment and take her life.
Sesshomaru knew he would regret his decision later on. He gently laid Rin on a small patch of grass, away from the clay - molded miko. He stepped lightly but hastily back to Kagome.
"Do you have a plan yet?" Kagome gaped at the demon standing before her. He was so intemidating.
"...no..." Sesshomaru stopped himself from rolling his eyes. The insolent girl was so pathetic. No plan, no nothing.
"If I leave to retrieve a special object that will bind Inuyasha until he returns to his sane state of mind - if he has one- , I will need your word that you will protect Rin while I retrieve this object..."
"You have my word." Kagome walked beside Sesshomaru as he returned to the small patch of grass. She wrapped the small figure up in her arms, in hopes that the thin limbs would protect the child from the cold winds wrapping around them. Kagome carried Rin to a tree and sat down. Sesshomaru continued to walk, once again , stopping beside Kikyo. He made sure his voice was low and inaudible by Kagome and Rin, just in case the little girl awoke.
"I will tell you this once and only once. You touch either of them and I will kill you." Kikyo kept her gaze on the slumbering girl and Kagome.
"Since when did you care for humans....and Inuyasha's human, in particular." He was growing angry by her curiousness.
"As long as that child is in her arms, then she has my protection. Protection and emotion are two different things." Kikyo waited until the dog demon was out of hearing range.
"But for how long Sesshomaru?"

Yay! So review alright? Yea?
