Chapter 17

***Sesshomaru and Angel***
Angel was just finished rubbing the sleep from her eyes when she flew over the prairie where the battle had commenced. The blood charred the ground like soot, but was becoming warn away. Angel sniffed lightly to smell the happenings of the previous night. She blinked in surprise, but instead of investigating, found the cave the group resided in.
She landed gracefully, her wings flapping around her body. They were all still fast asleep. Sango was huddled with Shippo, Rin, and Kirara, Rici with Miroku, and Inu Yasha and-
"Angie?!" Angel shouted looking at her in awe. Angie woke, startled and glanced up to see a winged woman in a strange outfit. The sun was rising behind her, making it hard to see who she was.
"Angel!" Angie said happily and sat up. Inu Yasha squirmed and looked out the cave's mouth to see Angel.
"Can I speak with you a moment?" Angel said calmly, all TOO calmly. Angie bit her lip and gulped loudly, following her sister outside and out of rang from the crew. Angel stopped and didn't turn to face Angie but drove her staff down fast.
"Do you even KNOW this guy Angie?" She said harshly and turned to face her. She flushed and could feel her neck burn with guilt. Then she realized something.
"Why do you care? It's MY life, I'm old enough; you should stop snooping where you shouldn't!" Angie flared, her eyes narrowing to small slits.
"I'm your big sister and I don't want anything to happen to you!" Angel raged back, her eyes burning with intensity.
"Lay off! I trust him. You're just jealous!" Angie roared and her tail swished back and forth. Angel huffed, about to say something when she deflated and sighed.
"Fine. You know what, you're right. Feh," She said and paused for dramatics, "If you get hurt, DON'T COME CRYIN' TA ME!" Angel screamed and flew back up to the cave entrance and landed with grace again.
Angie felt like crying but sucked back her tears and walked up the path; levitating rocks along the way and popping them every few seconds.

"Okay Rin, are you ready for take off?" Angel said and smiled for the first time since the argument.
"Hai, Angel-sama!" Rin said excitedly and held fast to Angel's shoulders.
"Here we go!" Angel shouted and ran to the edge of the cave. She swooped off, her tail trailing like a kites and billowing in the wind. Angie stepped over to Inu Yasha and frowned.
"I guess... this is goodbye huh?" She said and held his hand. He squeezed back.
"We'll see each other again. I promise." Inu Yasha said and pecked her on the cheek. She hugged his neck tightly and ran to the edge of the cave before he could see her cry. Inu Yasha sighed and watched her take off after her sister.
***Okami***
"It's morning Okami." Naraku hissed and walked into the room.
"Okay Master. I have a favor to ask of you." Okami said and sat up from her bed.
"Ask. I'm not saying I'll grant whatever it is though." Naraku said and turned to look at the wolf hanyou.
"Could I have a free day? Free of mind controlling, free of missions, just a day off?" Okami pleaded and got on her knees.
"I pity you." Naraku ridiculed and turned to face the door. "I will agree to let you have a free day, but not today. I have an important errand you need to run for me." Okami nodded in agreement.
"Then control me. I don't want to be awake to hurt someone." Okami said softly, her eyes still on his slippers.
"But of course." Naraku said and lifted his hand. She watched the hand and then winced; ready for him. He snapped his fingers and she blinked her eyes open; her pupils growing smaller.
"What is your bidding master?" Okami said and stood up. Naraku smirked fiendishly and turned to her.
"Fetch me the wolf prince's shards."
***Lady Akitsu and Prince Koga*** (a/n: Heehee... they sound married!)
The tora yawned and stretched until her toes curled. She rubbed the cheek she was laying on and sat up. She glanced over at Koga and smirked. He was upright against a tree with several abrasions on his head from the previous night's fight. She adjusted her blade within her obi and hopped from the tree she was resting in. She walked over to the snoring youkai and tapped him on the head. He woke with a start.
"OUCH! That still hurts ya know. Don't make me pummel you." He said and rubbed his head.
"Like you did last night ya wimp?" Lady Akitsu said playfully and pointed her snoot upward as she walked over to her sack.
"I was going easy on you. If I REALLY wanted to take ya down I could." Koga said and smirked arrogantly.
"HMPH!" Lady Ami snorted and took out some rice balls for breakfast. She passed one to Koga and he caught it with ease. They took a bite simultaneously, like they had been the whole time they'd been together. The tora youkai's ear twitched when she heard a small branch crack in the distance. She didn't think anything of it until an unfamiliar scent hit her nose. "Koga." She said and swallowed the last of her food. "We have company."
Sorry for the lame-o shortness! I've been SO fricken busy. I'll try and hurry with the next chapter!
