Hi. Let me get off to it right now, I'm sorry for taking so long to update. I lost the original copy of this fic and I couldn't find it anywhere, but I found it and I'm not telling where.
I'm changing my font. Times New Roman makes my eyes hurt. But enough blabbing time to update!!
Oh yeah I have been neglecting my duty.
Disclaimer: I do NOT own any of the names that regularly occur in the series Inuyasha.
Chapter 5
A new type demon and the difference between the two
"Father?" Taiketsu said and quickly looked away.
Sesshomaru was shocked for a second and then he smiled and started to walk away.
"Come along, you do want to meet your younger sister, don't you?" He said.
Taiketsu looked up and quickly started to follow. Suddenly she found herself on Sesshomaru's back.
"What…" She started.
"Sit and enjoy the ride it won't be often that I do this." Sesshomaru said.
Taiketsu said nothing and put her head down upon Sesshomarus shoulder.
She abruptly raised it when the rancid stench of demon approached mingled with a human scent.
Sesshomaru noted her movement and guessed that she felt slightly threatened.
"Not to worry, it's nothing but Jaken." He said indifferently.
"Who is this 'Jaken'?"
Suddenly the bushes gave a rustle and a small toad demon appeared being closely followed by a small human child.
"Sesshomaru-sama, You have returned to me! Oh and you brought 'company'."
Jaken stressed the word company and laced his tone with disgust. Taiketsu gave a lurch as she tried to attack the offending creature. Sesshomaru nearly let her do as she pleased but he found Jaken a little to … valuable to let Taiketsu kill him off.
~Perhaps some other time, but not right now. ~ Sesshomaru thought to himself.
"Jaken, I expect to hear that you have kept Rin out of trouble like I asked." Sesshomaru tried to quickly change the subject, but he could still feel Taiketsu's hate of his little servant.
"Y…yes, milord. I have done as told to." The little piece of (bleep) squeaked.
(Letting my own personal feelings go a little too far in the fic. I'll try to not let it happen again.J)
"Sesshoamru-sama?"
"Hai, Rin?"
"Who is the pretty girl who tried to kill Jaken-san?" the little girl asked.
Suddenly Taiketsu cleared her throat indicating to Sesshomaru that she would speak for herself if she did nothing else.
"My name is Taiketsu Tatsumi." She said in a sweet, soft, and subtle tone.
Rin seemed to take an instant liking to the young demon. She shot rapid-fire questions at Taiketsu.
Sesshomaru was shocked to see Taiketsu slide off his back and sit quietly in front of the small girl until she was finished instead of taking a swipe at her in an attempt to quiet the child.
When Rin finished Taiketsu chuckled softly.
"Well I am thirteen soon to be fourteen in a couple of months. Umm… I am a special type demon, the last of my kind as far as Japan goes. My kind is a powerful type, we can transform into three different types of demons. I can turn into a Inu, a kitsune, and a tora demon."
"But why those three, why not some other types?" Sesshomaru interjected.
"Why? Wisdom, Strength, and Cunning, those are the three things most important in battle and in life." Taiketsu answered.
