RWL: ::Laughs:: Kurama-kun, it seems he outsmarted you.
Kurama: That is true.
Hiei: ::Looks smug::
RWL: ::Smiles at both of them:: Well, I do not have the amount of reviews I wanted, but hey, I wanted to write! R&R please! Arigato! Kuroune turned and saw the figure, and his eyes widened. "S-Sesshoumaru- sama!" "Daddy! Leave him alone!" Tajia cried, running to her father. Sesshoumaru registered her presence, but didn't take his eyes off of Kuroune. "You touched my daughter..." "Y-Yes but..." "SILENCE! I trusted you!" Sesshoumaru said coldly, eyes boring into the cowering demon before him. "Daddy! Please! Leave him alone!" Tajia begged, wrapping her arms around Sesshoumaru's arm, holding it back as best she could. Sesshoumaru then turned his gaze to look at his daughter, his eyes reflecting what very well might be kindness, but that quickly faded. "Do you care for this demon?" He asked quietly. Tajia looked at Kuroune, her usually calm gold eyes frightened. She tried to gasp out that she did, but she could only nod. Sesshoumaru looked at Kuroune again, and nodded briefly. "Fine. He will live, but let me test him." He said, gently sliding out of Tajia's grasp, and walking off a little. "Choose your weapon Kuroune." Kuroune stood up, and looked at Tajia. But she did not return his look; she was staring at her father. He sighed. 'I do not want to fight.' He thought, but ran his hand through his hair, pulling out a single rose. "Fine. ROSE WHIP!" He cried, snapping his wrist, the rose lengthening into a whip. 'Hm...He is strong. For a child.' Sesshoumaru thought, coolly surveying Kuroune, as he stepped back, drawing Tetseiga. "Father! Don't hurt him!" Tajia cried, watching with worry. She knew that Tetseiga couldn't kill Kuroune, but could hurt him. "Hush child!" Sesshoumaru snapped, his hand tightening on the hilt of Tetseiga. Tajia fell silent at his words, and stepped back to the tree, a lone tear sliding down her soft cheek. "Tajia...." Kuroune said softly, watching her, only to almost be slammed on the shoulder by Tetseiga. He deftly jumped aside, and managed to snake out his rose whip, but still missed Sesshoumaru as he dodged it. Kuroune quickly slid his feet under himself, and skidded to a stop, only to jump again as Tetseiga hummed in the air, to slam into the ground where Kuroune was only a moment before. 'He's fast!' Kuroune thought as he ran. Sesshoumaru was busy keeping himself entertained while watching Kuroune run. "You can run Kuroune, but not forever." "Maybe, maybe not." Kuroune gasped, falling to one knee, and using the rose whip to wrap around Tetseiga and hold it at bay. He sweated with the exertion of running from Sesshoumaru's sword, and he had long lost his shirt, but he still was unharmed. Sesshoumaru's eyes widened at the fact that Kuroune was actually able to see his attack and stop it. 'How...' But he did not have a chance to finish that thought, because Kuroune threw his sword aside, and cut his stomach slightly with his rose whip. He gasped in surprise, but quickly recovered. He stood to his full height, Tetseiga hanging at his side. To Tajia's surprise, she saw that his chest was heaving in and out slightly. "You are strong, I give you that. But it does not give you the right to lay your half blood hands on my daughter!!!" Another cliffy, sorry. Hope you like, please review! Whowhatwhenever- I love your stories, even if they are done. Lady Taishya- Love ya' like a sis!
