****************************************************
Chapter 11:
The couple sat close together on the park bench, his arm wrapped tightly around her shoulders as they watched the birds fly in the sky. It was the first day of spring, the March air cool across their faces. Children played on the playgrounds and a baseball game was in play, the cheering loud.
Sango smiled and laid her head on Miroku's shoulder, "Miroku, when did you turn into such a gentleman?"
Said young man laughed and rubbed Sango's shoulder, "When I didn't have to keep chasing you anymore. Good enough answer?"
She looked up at him and smiled, "Works for me." She placed a small kiss on his chin. "You know... you aren't a bad person once you stop trying to grope me ever five seconds."
"Ah, but it takes away the fun." Said Miroku with a wink.
Sango giggled and slapped his chest playfully, "You're a nut, Miroku!" with a smile she said, "But I love you for it."
"I love you too, Sango." Miroku brought her closer and placed a kiss on her lips, the world forgotten.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Tatsuyu marveled at Sesshomaru's bike, the paint glistening after being polished. Truth to be told she has never been on a motorcycle before or any kind of vehicle that went that fast. She's always wanted to, but always backed down in fear of falling off. Today, however, was a different story.
On the other side of the garage was Sesshomaru's other pride and joy; his Harley Davidson. Rarely did he ride this anywhere, but today he was. One day he noticed Tatsuyu glancing at it when he was fixing his motor crosser, and asked if she wanted to ride it. Finally she gave in and today Sesshomaru was going to give her a ride to school on it.
She ran her hands along the bike; the black leather seats cool under her palms. It was interesting how something like this had so much power. It really makes you think of how history went from horses to things that can get up to sixty miles in five seconds. How times have changed.
The door to the garage opened, making Tatsuyu turn. She smiled. Sesshomaru smiled back. "Ready?" he said while putting on a leather jacket.
She gave a nervous nod. "I think so," she looked back at the bike, "a little dangerous don't you think?"
Sesshomaru came behind her and held her close, "Don't worry. You just hang on to me and I'll make sure nothing happens to you." He kissed her head, "Trust me, it's perfectly safe."
She exhaled, "Well I'm not thoroughly convinced, but if you say so."
Turning around she let Sesshomaru hand her a helmet. She watched as he walked the bike out of the garage into the light, Sesshomaru's hair catching the sun.
When the bike was on its kickstand, Sesshomaru turned and beckoned her to come. With nervous steps she walked out of the garage. She gave a startled yelp when she felt herself being lifted off the ground and onto the bike.
She gave Sesshomaru a look that was more funny than scary and he laughed. "Now don't give me that look, you know you would have chickened out."
She gave a little pout, "Would not have." Inside she knew she would've. Sesshomaru could read her like a book.
Watching her boyfriend get on the Davidson, Tatsuyu slowly put the helmet over her head, making sure her long red hair didn't get caught up. Feeling a little foolish she watched as Sesshomaru did the same and started the bike. Her heart thrummed in her chest as she felt the bike vibrate under her.
Sesshomaru looked back and smiled, "Just put your arms around my waist. Don't worry, I won't let you fall."
Once Tatsuyu's arms were firmly around Sesshomaru's waist, he kicked up the kickstand and started down the driveway.
Tatsuyu's eyes widened with surprise. "OH LORD!"
Sesshomaru grinned as he accelerated faster down the street. A familiar feeling was settling in his stomach. It happened whenever he drove with such freedom and speed. It happened when he was competing. It was a feeling of letting yourself go. As if nothing could touch you because you were going so fast. You were invincible.
Tatsuyu's thoughts were a little less pleasant. To her, she felt a little too exposed and was afraid of falling over. Tightening her hold she closed her eyes and tried to concentrate on something else. With her thoughts inward she was able to sense Kyuusaisha in the back of her mind, the dragon crooning with excitement and glee.
/ You're enjoying this? / She asked the dragon.
The dragon crooned again / Oh yes. It reminds me of the open skies. Being able to fly high and fast. It is something I truly enjoyed /
/ You can't anymore? /
The dragon's voice turned somber, / only if I am released from within you, however I believe right now would not be a smart choice /
Tatsuyu laid her head against Sesshomaru's back and sighed, "Poor Kyuusaisha."
"What was that Tats?" asked Sesshomaru over the roar of the bike.
Tatsuyu smiled and gave his torso a squeeze. "Nothing. Just talking to Kyuusaisha."
"Tell her I said hi."
She laughed as she felt the white dragon answer back with much enthusiasm. "She thanks you for taking her on this wonderful contraption. She says if feels like she's flying again."
Sesshomaru's laugh echoed after hers. "She's quite welcome... we'll have to do this often." He chanced a look back and gave a wicked grin when he saw her give a look of shock. Turning his eyes back on the rode he concentrated on getting them to school safely.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Back at the house a figure stepped out from behind Sesshomaru's firebird and stalked towards the garage door that led to the house. He jiggled the handle. Locked. Reaching above his head he let his hand run over the spare key on top of the door. Sticking the key in the lock he heard a small *click*.
He smiled. "You really should have changed the hiding place of the spare key my dear son." Putting the key back in its place he opened the door and made his way inside.
"Way too easy."
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Tatsuyu gave a sigh of relief as Sesshomaru parked the motorcycle and put the kickstand down. Quickly taking off the helmet she shook out her hair and let if fall down her back. Ignoring the people watching her and Sesshomaru, she let him pick her off the bike and place her on the ground.
"Are you okay, Tats?" he asked a little concerned.
She nodded. "Hai, I guess I'm just not as comfortable on a bike like this as you. Though it was fun." She said and smiled up as him.
He smiled back and kissed her head, "Then we won't go on it unless you want to." Tatsuyu nodded and then her face went blank. A minute later she started giggling and he cocked his head. "What's so funny?"
The giggling intensified. "Kyuusaisha just got really depressed and started whining!"
Sesshomaru gave a look of amusement and laughed along with her, more people staring at them but going unnoticed.
A sneer voice spoke up behind Sesshomaru. "Well look who it is. It's the so-called White Demon. Is the Demon ready to get assassinated?"
The couple turned around and Sesshomaru's eyes narrowed. Onigumo, who could be mistaken for being Naraku's clone, stood with his group of "friends" behind him snickering. They were known as the "Devil Gang". Consisting of Kagura, Kanna, Musou, Juuroumaru, and his brother Kageroumaru, they were known for being the bullies of the school. No one liked them and that's the way they liked it.
Sesshomaru's lip twitched. He especially didn't like them. "What do you want Onigumo?"
The group leader spit on the ground, "Simple. I want you to lose the competition like every year. Also," he turned towards Tatsuyu and smiled, "I want you to give her up."
Sesshomaru growled and held Tatsuyu close, "Back off shithead. Go find another toy to fuck with. She's not interested."
"How do you know that? Did she say anything? No. So who are you to answer for her?" He moved closer and let a gnarled hand raise up, "Come on, Precious. I'll show you a better time."
Tatsuyu stared at the hand with disgust and slapped it away, "I would never go out with someone like you!"
Onigumo glared at her and stepped closer, "You little bitch! No woman has ever denied me what I want!"
"I believe I just did you ugly bastard!"
Onigumo's face flushed red with rage and he raised his hand as if to slap her. Sesshomaru went to intervene but Tatsuyu already lunged. With astounding speed her own hand came forward, her nails slashing into Onigumo's face. He gave a scream of pain as his hand came to his face, blood seeping through his fingers.
"YOU LITTLE –"
He stopped speaking and looked on in horror. Tatsuyu stood in battle stance, her right arm held up in front of her face so you only saw her eyes. Once honey eyes blazed brightly, flicks of red and black swirling with yellow. Elongated fingernails flexed open and a soft guttural growl could be heard.
"Try and touch me like that again and you'll find yourself without a hand." She whispered, her threat loud and clear. Onigumo's group took a step back and a crowd formed around the two. Onigumo pulled his hand away and stared back. A shiver ran down his spine as Tatsuyu narrowed her eyes and dropped her hand lower. A snarl exposing longer canines was now visible and his eyes widened.
Time stood still and everyone around them seemed to disappear. The longer he stared at her form he noticed something. A shadowy figure loomed over her, piercing red eyes staring back at him. Its head dipped further down and giant wings lifted into the sky. He couldn't take his eyes off of it. It seemed to come closer and closer and he started to panic.
"NO! STAY BACK!" he shouted. The figure still came closer and again he panicked. Turning sharply he ran into the crowd, his face contorted in fear and anguish, his gang only few steps behind him.
Everyone stared at his retreating form then at Tatsuyu. Although she stood up straight and her face expressionless, everyone felt an ominous presence around her. They watched as she took a few steps backwards then turned and slowly walked off.
Sesshomaru stared, bewildered and a little frightened. Like Onigumo, he also saw the shadowed figure above his girlfriend but he knew what it was. Kyuusaisha. She had come to defend Tatsuyu like she said she would.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Tatsuyu leaned against the side of the school building, her breathing erratic and her body shaking.
/ Kyuusaisha! W-what just happened?! /
/ I was helping you defend yourself. That man was going to strike you. That is my job. I am here to protect you /
Tatsuyu gave a strangled moan, / but... but I feel so... so awful / tears fell down her cheeks, / Why do I feel so sick inside? /
The dragons crooned softly / because you are not a violent person by nature. This emotion is foreign to you. You have felt anger yes... but not violence /
"But I don't like it. It hurts me." She said aloud. She closed her eyes and hugged herself. "It hurts me so much."
Strong arms wrapped around her shoulders and she gasped in surprise. Looking up her eyes widened. "Antonio?"
The Spaniard smiled. "Hey there my little Irish Bell. Are you okay there?"
She sniffled and leaned into his chest. "I... I'm not so sure right now."
Antonio patted her back and said, "Well that was an interesting morning."
Her eyes widened, "You saw what happened?"
He snorted, "Tats, I was there when that first happened remember? Do you wanna talk about it?"
"Not right now..." she said, "But can you help me find Sesshomaru?"
"No need. I'm right her, baby."
Antonio and Tatsuyu looked over to see the white-haired boy walk over with a comforting smile on his face. "Trying to steal her away from already, Tony?" he said jokingly.
Antonio chuckled. "Unfortunately for me no. This pretty Irish Bell is all yours."
Tatsuyu rolled her eyes at his new nickname for her. She never should have told him she was half Irish. Giving a small sniffle she smiled and jumped into Sesshomaru's arms.
He held her close. / You okay now? /
She nuzzled her nose into his chest. / I don't know. I feel a little sick right now. /
/ It will pass my dear / Kyuusaisha piped up scaring both of them.
Sesshomaru gave a look of surprise. / Kyuusaisha!? I can hear you?! /
/ Yes Sesshomaru, you can hear me like I can hear you /
Sesshomaru shook his head. "Whoa... that was just weird."
"What was, Sess?" asked Tony perplexed.
Sesshomaru shook his head again, "Nothing... nothing." Antonio gave him a look that said 'I don't believe you' but shrugged.
"Well... with all that said and done, I think it's time that we enter the school so we're not late."
The two agreed and followed him towards the front of the school.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
A sleek black car was parked on the side of the street near the school. Sitting calmly in the driver seat, Naraku tightened his hands on the steering wheel as he watched his daughter.
"This isn't good. She's becoming aware of the dragon. She probably knows about it already." He said to himself. Cursing, he turned on the car and shifted into gear.
Driving down the street he let his mind wander to when he discovered his wife had the power to control dragons. When he found out he was furious.
"I guess getting rid of her wasn't enough." He said bitterly. "Before she died she passed on the dragon to 'her'!" he sped up, "I should have killed her myself, not have some thug from the streets."
Turning the corner Naraku made his way to work, a frown on his face and his eyes cold with rage.
*********************************************************
Meh... It's okay I guess. I'm not sure I really like it. I think it's too short but that's just me. There's probably more to it but I'm saving that for the next chapter so I actually have a place to start the next chapter. Gods do I hate writer's block! .
Also... Some of the characters in Onigumo's group... I have no idea who they are so if they seem to not say anything it's because I don't know their personalities to give me a good idea.
Anyway... chapter 11 done, hope ya like, R&R, please and thank you, and stay tuned for another chapter to Take Flight My Dragon!
