======================================================================
Shippo stared out the barred window into the dark, cold night. A noise behind him startled the poor pup. He turned to see it was just a sevent bringing his food. Two days of this, a sigh escaped Shippo's lips, Kagome, Zumi, anybody...help! He stared out the window, this time past the gate into the forest. His eyes caught flashes of white. Zumi He put his hands over his ears at the sudden yelling from the gate.
Zumi sealthed her sword and looked over the battle field. That was too easy She looked up at the 100ft. gate that surronded the palace. A smirk settled on her face as she jumped over the wall. Zumi's eyes traveled from window to window, searching for a young kitsune. Where is he? Movement in a window caught her eye. A smile lite up her face in joyful brillance. She ran and jumped, landign silently on the window sill.
"Shippo, are you alright?"
Shippo nodded, tears in his eyes, "I'm a little hungrey but I'm fine."
Zumi looked through the window into the room. She spotted the food and pointed to it.
:There is food on the table, eat that. I'll be back soon."
"Wa.." Shippo couldn't get out any more before she jumped down. He grundly wne to the table and ate.
Sesshoumaru stood in front of the fire place, wondering what could be taking Inu-yasha so long. His thoughts were interupted when he heard screaming coming from the eastern gate. Finally He took his time walking down the elegant hallway. He descended the grand stairway, expecting Inu-yasha to burst in any moment. What he saw wasn't what he predicted.
That fox! Sesshoumaru didn't blink, though he was surprised, but he looked rather irritated.
"Return Shippo, now!"
"Or what?" Sesshoumaru raised an eyebrow, curious to see what she would do.
There was no answer from her, instead she attacked. She ran at him, ready to slash with her claws. Sesshoumaru watched, slightly amused. She jumped up and slashed at sesshoumaru but not with her claws. The halls rang with the clang of steel on steel. He raised a very cool eyebrow at the kitsune. Who, in turn, jumped back and held the sword in front of her.
Sesshoumaru looked down at her, sword down and by his side. As he looked there seemed to be twenty (20) fox demons in the entrince way. They attacked alll raising their swords, surprising him. But one kicked him into a wall, putting her sword at his throut.
"Move an inch, I will kill you. Now tell me where Shippo is," the kitsune narrowed her eyes.
"you cheat, Zumi."
======================================================================
WW -- alright everyone that's it...I'm just kidding
Ki -- laughs we got you!
======================================================================
Zumi's eyes were opened wide and her mouth felt dry. Everything came back: the games, the fights, and excpesially the way she felt. She gulped and droped the sword, backing away she tried to say something but she couldn't speak. Her back hit the wall. Sesshoumaru walked away from the wall to which he was pinned.
"Follow me"
"Why?"
"You wanted to see Shippo, did you not?"
She followed him up the stairs and through the hall way. He led her to a door and unlocked it. Zumi ran in and picked up up Shippo.
"Shippo!"
"Zumi!"
The joyful reunion was cut short when Sesshoumaru coughed.
"Let me show you to your rooms." With that he turned and left, expexcting them to follow. Shippo and Zumi looked at one another, curious looks in their eyes. Zumi ran out, Shippo still in her arms.
"Why can't we go home?"
"Because I said so."
Zumi pouted at his answer and followed him yet again. This wasn't what I planned
