Chapter 2: Through Bone-Eaters Well
Disclaimer: If I owned Inuyasha why in the world would I be writing a fan fiction? No da!
Excel: Oh my gosh Chappie two already!
La-la: Kingdom Heaven gets updated first though right?
Excel: Nope Runaways than Kingdom Heaven than the Harry P. story that only has one chapter that goes on for about 15 pages cause I didn't know what I was doing.
Kawaii: What happens to Silver? And the Youko story?
Excel: As a matter of fact those two are getting updated at the same time!
Amiri: What about our story?
Excel: That will have to wait till I get another fan fiction account because our past lives story does revolve around anime. It was real.
Ameshia: That means you now have 7 stories online now! Coolness!
Excel: Very cool. Now I would like to thank all my reviewers from all my stories! Tis so nice to have support. I'm just about ready to cry! I thought I'd never get a review. And now that I do I just. Sniffles thanks guys!
Kawaii: Yeah. Lets get on with this new one. I 'm dieing to know what's going down. Presses play and the theme song comes on and the fic starts
Waking up the next morning Celeste smiled. The guy from her dream has been there for about 2 years now. At first he was cold to her till he gradually warmed up to her to what they had now. "He is so cool! And romantic, and I wish I could find the guy already!" she yelled to no one in particular.
Sighing in frustration she got dressed in her school uniform. Instead of having a book-bag, like everyone else she preferred a briefcase to hold her laptop. Which had downloaded her books so she wouldn't have to carry them. (Clever girl no?). Brushing her teeth after her breakfast she set to work on her hair. It was tangled from the night before. (Now we all know no one wakes up with perfect hair. I don't care who you are. You go to sleep; your hair is a mess in the morning. As a mater of fact I make myself cry when doing my own hair! So I don't wanna hear anyone say oh his or her hair is so right in the morning. Movie stars have hair stylists no da!) When she finished her hair styled into a French braids going down her back she took her sunglasses and a scrunchie tying up her hair and taking her wallet, keys, and briefcase she left out the house.
Rushing into her car she sat back and closed her eyes. After school she had to go to a dojo to train. The guy was probably in his mid-50's trying to make another buck. She shrugged and started the car. It roared to life and she almost sighed in satisfaction. She loved the sound of her engine. Putting on her seat belt she drove off to school.
When she got there she got a couple of stares but then again she expected that. Locking her car and putting the alarm on her car walked right into the building her slight smile on her face. Looking immediately for the main office she bumped right into someone's chest. A guy's chest at that. This guy had a very hard chest! Looking up she stared right into hazel eyes. Though his face was blank, amusement was plain in his eyes. She blushed slightly.
"Excuse me." she said switching into Japanese. He nodded for her to continue." I'm looking for the main office. Can you tell me where it is?" she said. Those eyes! They were killing her. The boy took her by the shoulders and spun her around to face own a hallway.
"Of course." He said but he said it in English. Accented sure, but in understandable English! And he sounded even hotter than he looked! Which was absolutely positively gorgeous!
"You speak English?" She said turning to him.
"Yes I do. Now to go to the main office you go down this hallway and make a right. It will be right there." He said. She smiled.
"Thank you!" she said bowing quickly. He chuckled and bowed in return and walked away raising a hand to show he said good-bye. "Oh, my gosh!" she sighed her legs almost buckling from the vision of glory that had just talked to her. Shaking her head she swayed to the main office and told them her name and got her schedule. By this time her head was clear and she managed to find her classroom fine. She knocked and a teacher answered the door,
"Are you the new student?" asked the teacher. She nodded and bowed.
"My name is Celeste Ryuu Notama." She said.
"I'm Akio-sensei. Welcome to my class." He said pushing her inside. She stumbled a bit but straightened her self so it looked like she bowed to the class. "You may take the seat next to Mr. Taisho." said her teacher ushering her towards the middle back of the classroom to where... Aicaromba! (Like Bart Simpson. Pronounced Ai-ca –rhomb)
"Nice to see you again." He said softly. She smiled a bit even as he brushed one of the jet-black bangs out of his eyes to stare at her. She felt her heart skip a beat as he motioned for her to sit down and she took her seat crossing her legs at the ankles and putting her briefcase on the desk.
"Pleasure's all mine I assure you." She said batting her eyelashes at him. He chuckled at this and she popped open her laptop. It loaded silently and she pulled open the World History book and typed the page they were supposed to be on and it automatically went here. She looked up at the teacher who stared back at her.
"Unless it is school related your not allowed on the internet." He said softly.
"Oh I'm not on the net. I downloaded all my books into my laptop so I didn't have to carry all the books." she said turning her laptop around so he could see she wasn't lying. The teacher smiled.
"Just make sure it doesn't make to much noise okay?" he said and she smiled in return and nodded.
"It won't." she promised. As soon as he turn is back she made faces at him out of humor.
School that day was eventful she bumped into 5 different people. Two she made friends with the others just glared at her and told her to watch where she was going. She helped a little kid learn to swim in P.E. (which happened to be the coaches nephew) The guy she met seemed to take a liking to her, which she liked anyway. Now it was time to enter the dojo to meet her new fighting sensei. She was dressed in a fighter's kimono with tight leggings. All of it black except for the silver cherry-blossom petals that went down her form. Sighing she pushed the door open and gaped around. Weapons of every kind were on the walls. The floor were polished a dark maple color.
"Welcome to my domain." Came a voice behind and she whirled around to face the guy from school.
"You're my teacher!?" she cried slapping a hand to her forehead. He smirked as he took a sword from the wall.
"Problem?" he asked giving the blade a practice swing.
"No no, no. Its just it's going to be hard seeing you twice everyday. One I have to be friendly and here I have to fight with you. Its not fair!" she said. He chuckled.
"Don't worry I don't bite... hard." He added giving her one of those smiles. (Ladies, you know exactly what kind of smile I'm talking about and it's a surprise she hasn't passed out yet) She blushed as he walked over to her. "Pick your weapon." He instructed.
"Don't we have to stretch first?" she asked.
"I doubt if your going down the street and someone attacks you you'll be stretched neither will they let you." He explained and she nodded 'That makes sense.' She thought before looking around. Smiling she found two double bladed swords. She smiled and took them off the wall. They weren't really that heavy but she guessed they couldn't be too much heavier because it probably needed twice as much skill to handle.
"Double swords huh. Not bad for the first choice." He said sitting on the floor.
"What are you doing?" she asked sitting down with him.
"Relaxing my muscles. I'm too tense right now and really so are you." He said opening 1 eye to stare at her.
"I am?" she asked though doing we he bade.
"Yes. You're heart is beating way to fast and you're tense and stiff." He said and she raised her eyebrow again but sat down and concentrated on calming her raging heart. After about 15 minutes he got up and pulled her to her feet.
"Copy my position." He said crouching a bit and bringing his hand up and flexed his hand around his sword. She did, as she was told not knowing what to do with the extra sword. Sesshomaru turned around then chuckled and got out of his position to come up behind her and intertwine his limbs with her and moved her into the correct position. A faint blush tinged her cheeks but she held firm. He let her go and moved in front of her. Alright now follow my movements." He said and so the training started.
3 months later
"Tai! Can we take a break today! You've been working me like a dog since we started. I barely have enough energy to go home!" Celeste whined. Tai caved.
"Fine. We rest today. As a matter of fact why don't we go visit that shrine down the street. I hear the have real good luck charms." He said and Celeste's eyes widen before she grabbed his hand.
"Well what are we waiting for lets go!' she said and yanked him out the door still where her training out fit this one of royal blue with white and silver petals on it. Her swords were still on her back as she dragged him down the street and up the stairs to the shrine.
"Slow down! Star! Cool ya' jets!" he said tugging her back till she fell into him. She chuckled a bit and sprung back up. Looking around she saw the well house she saw the girl disappear into. She felt a pull and decided to walk for it.
"I'll meet you inside!" she called over her shoulder and she pulled the door open and went inside. The well was dry. She leaned over a bit more because she thought she saw something.
Whatever it was it was glinting and it was pink. "Eep!" she cried as she fell in. She landed on her bottom with a thud. "Owww!" she whined till she felt something through her hair.
"Rain?" she asked looking up. Sure enough rain was coming and from what she heard she need to get back to that shrine for cover.
With a grunt she jumped up and held onto the ledge and flipped herself up onto the ground. "What the hell?" she said looking around seeing no type of civilization. She was in a freakin' forest!
"AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHh!" she screamed in fright and surprise. She kept this up for about 5 minutes till water started to pour into her mouth almost making her choke. She coughed and spluttered up water and she ran for a big tree and climbed into it since it had good cover from the rain. There she sat quietly meditating one leg hanging down. Her arm rested on her propped up knee and her eyes closed as she thought about her situation.
"Who the hell are you?" came a gruff voice. She spun around and her eyes narrowed.
"That's none of your business if you don't tell me yours first." she said staring at him.
"That's none of your business." He said.
"Then my name is none of yours either." She said curtly. She went back to meditating staying silent till she noticed he was still there.
"What do you want?" she asked looking down at him.
"I want you to leave." He said simply. She glared at him and shrugged.
"I will when the rain stops. Then I'll take my leave." She said using her business-like voice. The guy "feh!" and leaned against the tree. Glaring at her. She rolled her eyes and went back to meditating. Soon the rain stopped and she hopped down from the tree and started to walk away. Till the guy stopped her...
"Where are you going?" he asked. She raised an eyebrow at him and took in his whole form. White hair, toned body, gold eyes, and dog ears on the top of his head. She didn't let her surprise show.
"Away. I need to find my way home." She said.
"Well you're going the wrong way." He said. Her eyes shot open as she glared at him.
"How in the hell do you know where I live?" she asked advancing toward him.
"Because the village is that way, and your going in the opposite direction." He answered his hand twitching on the hilt of his sword. She stopped walking since she was about a foot away from him and glared at him. He glared back, her lip twitched a bit and she let out a feral growl, which took him off guard.
"Who are you?" he asked gruffly.
"Celeste. What's your name?" she said switching her weight to one foot and putting a hand on her hip.
"Inuyasha." He asked curtly. The both inclined their heads a bit just to show they at least had some respect for each other.
"What are you a demon?" she said. He nodded.
"Half." He corrected. She rolled her eyes.
"Either way you're a demon so leave it alone." She said. 'Wow Tai wasn't joking about demons and stuff. But where is Tai? And where is the shrine? Where is civilization!' she thought mentally. "I want my car back!" she yelled into the air not caring who heard.
"A car? What's a car?" asked Inuyasha. She stared at him.
"What did I travel back in time or something? Cars are the metal contraptions that move where you tell them to move as long as they have fuel. They take you where you need to go without you having to do the walking. And it doesn't get tired." She said quickly. She started walking toward where Inuyasha pointed out before he said something incredibly stupid.
"You must be another wench from Kagome's time." Inuyasha said off- handedly. She stopped suddenly and turned around.
"What did you just call me?" she growled turning around.
"A wench. Why have a problem with being what you are?" He asked taunting her. She responded by taking on a battle stance.
"You actually want me to kill you?" he asked laughing.
"..." Was all he got for an answer. He too got into a fighting position and smirked.
"If you wanted to end your life sooner I shoulda let you walk into my brother's territory. He would have killed you in minutes.
"Whatever you say." She said as Inuyasha took out a sword, which transformed into a fang. (Don't worry. I know it only works on demons. There is a reason behind my madness!) Her eyes narrowed as he charged her the sword raised. She moved gracefully out the way as he swung leaving a crater in the ground. She did a back flip and landed on her feet as he swung and she ducked beneath the blow sliding between his leg and smacking him upside the head and kicking him in the butt before jumping back so he could pick himself up.
"Stay still!" he said glaring at her.
"Don't be a baby and take your beating like a man." She said. He put the sword away and charged her and threw his claws out to catch her in the throat before she bent backwards and balanced herself in a bridge (you know when your back is arched and both your hands and feet are on the floor) before tucking her feet in and kicking him in the chest causing him to fall before she put her feet on the ground landing in a kneeling position. Inuyasha got up and took out his sword again this time he appeared to be looking for something on her body.' An opening?' she thought and she braced herself as he charged her this time she managed to dodge but he came out with a kick to her stomach which caused her to lose her balance and she fell before she did a somersault as her brought the sword crashing down where her body once was. Taking her own swords out and got into another position to fight. She crossed the swords into an x shape as he brought it down again. This time she almost fell from the pressure and she saw his eyes tinge with red. Her eyes widened as he managed to push her to the ground throwing all his body weight onto her. Seeing once again that he left an opening she kicked out barely missing his 'prized area'. His eyes widened as he coughed and rolled over releasing the pressure on her body. She slowly got to her knees watching him he held his hands between his legs. (Now I'm sorry Inu-fans but this is funny!) She saw him growl and pick p the sword and charge her. The wind pick up around her as he barraged her with attacks. She coughed as he punched her in the gut knocking the wind out of her. She fell to her knees clutching her stomach wheezing as she tried to force air into her lungs. "Now you die." She heard him growl and she glared at him. She saw him go fuzzy before her eyes as he dried out. "Wind Scar!" and she blacked out. - Excel: There we go! Finished! Amiri: What! You can't end it there! You'll get flamed! Excel: Well its supposed to be a cliffy. So if I get flamed that's a good thing to show they're impatient. Iesha; at least right another page to show readers if Inuyasha killed her or not. Excel: Well its obvious she can't die! She's the freaking heroine of the story! La-la: Not true. She could be like Kagome in 'whispered dreams' by Youkai yume. Excel: True but I'm not that cruel or that good of a writer as of yet. Kawaii; I think your pretty good. Excel: Thank you. Amiri: But you still can't end it there. Excel: Oh fine I write a bit more yeesh! ; Celeste awoke to find herself in the same spot where she and that Inuyasha guy were fighting. But he was nowhere in sight. "Am I ... dead?" she thought looking at her hands. She smacked herself and yelped.' Ow!" She said clutching the abused cheek. She looked around till she heard a giggle. She turned to see a little girl of about 6 or 7 coming out of the bushes. "Your funny!" she said clapping her hands. Celeste smiled. This little girl was contagious! Then she thought for a second. "You're not a demon are you?" she asked going down to pick up her dropped swords, which were still on the ground. "No Rin isn't a demon" s the little girl replied with a wide smile once again. "But Rin knows 3 demons! Want to see them?" she asked as Celeste blanched at the thought of might having to fight a full-blooded demon when she hardly remembers beating a half one. "No not really." She said with a smile. Rin smiled even as a shadow loomed over the both of them. "Sesshomaru-sama!" she said before Celeste got knocked down and was pinned to the ground with a guy on top of her holding her throat his other hand flexed. "What are you trying to do?" he asked his voice deep and husky though no emotion in it. For some reason he sounded a little bit like Tai. As she was thinking this she coughed as his hand tightened around her throat and she lost air. "Do not make me repeat myself human." He said his eyes almost half closed as he bared his fangs. She glared at him and wheezed out. "I don't know how you expect me to talk if you're blocking my passage for air." she said her voice tiny due to lack of oxygen. His hand released some pressure and she gulped in air. Before she spoke. "I wasn't trying to do anything." She said looking into his molten gold gaze. 'Okay Tai and this guy could have a contest of who looks more bangin and I'd lose my mind if this one smiled and Tai did as well.' She thought almost missing his next question. "Then why were you talking to my ward?" he asked. She shrugged. "She came over to me when I smacked myself to see if I was alive.' She admitted blushing furiously as he ran a piercing gaze over her body. "Why would you think so?" he asked. At this point she realized he was going to get out of this awkward position till all of his questions were answered so she complied. "I was fighting someone with a giant sword and he yelled out Wind Scar before I blacked out so I was wondering if he had killed me.' she said truthfully as his elegant eyebrow rose a fraction of an inch. "Did this person have the name of Inuyasha?" he asked releasing a bit more pressure on her neck. "As a matter of fact he did. He wore this red hoari and he had dog-ears on his head." She said biting her lip as she thought. "And you lived?" he asked. She had the feeling of wanting to roll her eyes but showing disrespect to someone who can kill at this instant wouldn't be smart if you wanted to stay alive. "Well if you're choking me I'm pretty sure I'm quite alive." She said as he slid off of her. She sat up and put her sword away before standing up. "You will accompany me." he said as if commanding her. "What for?" she asked.
"The attack should have killed you yet you live with no other injuries except for the one's that I just gave you.' He said.
"It should have?" she said blinking rapidly. He nodded and she felt something warm come from her wrist. She held up her wrist to stare at her little jewel she had gotten from her older brother. It was a deep blue color with specks of silver seemingly inside of it. And it was glowing! She looked at he guy Rin called Sesshomaru-sama and called out his name her voice shaky. He turned around and she noticed one arm wasn't like the other. One looked almost normal while the other looked scaly. Kind like a dragons hide.
"What are you doing human?" he said almost growling.
"It's not me! It s doing it on its own!" she said her eyes wide. The jewel continued to glow before a little burst of light came out and hit Rin and Sesshomaru, yet neither one stumbled or fell. Then the light vanished. She looked at the jewel her eyebrows furrowed not noticing Rin's giggles or the crack of knuckles. She shook her head and gasped...
Excel: There now it is quite obvious she is alive and well.
Iesha: You call 'within 10 feet of Sesshomaru' alive and well? Are you crazy?
La-la: What happened to Inuyasha?
Excel: You'll find that out in the next chappie!
Amiri: But this is still a cliffhanger!
Excel: but its not as bad as the one I would have left in.
Amiri: but its still a cliffie!
Excel: Stop being a baby
Amiri: waaaah!
Excel:rolls her eyes and you call me immature?
Kawaii; What happened to Runaways?
Excel: Holy! I knew I forgot to update something!
Travonte; So when can we expect another update.
Excel: well since I won't have to sneak on the net after May 18 it might be another 3 weeks after that.
Everyone: Happy Cinco de Mayo and get ready for Chapter 3 :Hey what's happening to me! Dude! Where's my car! Ready? Go!

"I will when the rain stops. Then I'll take my leave." She said using her business-like voice. The guy "feh!" and leaned against the tree. Glaring at her. She rolled her eyes and went back to meditating. Soon the rain stopped and she hopped down from the tree and started to walk away. Till the guy stopped her...
"Where are you going?" he asked. She raised an eyebrow at him and took in his whole form. White hair, toned body, gold eyes, and dog ears on the top of his head. She didn't let her surprise show.
"Away. I need to find my way home." She said.
"Well you're going the wrong way." He said. Her eyes shot open as she glared at him.
"How in the hell do you know where I live?" she asked advancing toward him.
"Because the village is that way, and your going in the opposite direction." He answered his hand twitching on the hilt of his sword. She stopped walking since she was about a foot away from him and glared at him. He glared back, her lip twitched a bit and she let out a feral growl, which took him off guard.
"Who are you?" he asked gruffly.
"Celeste. What's your name?" she said switching her weight to one foot and putting a hand on her hip.
"Inuyasha." He asked curtly. The both inclined their heads a bit just to show they at least had some respect for each other.
"What are you a demon?" she said. He nodded.
"Half." He corrected. She rolled her eyes.
"Either way you're a demon so leave it alone." She said. 'Wow Tai wasn't joking about demons and stuff. But where is Tai? And where is the shrine? Where is civilization!' she thought mentally. "I want my car back!" she yelled into the air not caring who heard.
"A car? What's a car?" asked Inuyasha. She stared at him.
"What did I travel back in time or something? Cars are the metal contraptions that move where you tell them to move as long as they have fuel. They take you where you need to go without you having to do the walking. And it doesn't get tired." She said quickly. She started walking toward where Inuyasha pointed out before he said something incredibly stupid.
"You must be another wench from Kagome's time." Inuyasha said off- handedly. She stopped suddenly and turned around.
"What did you just call me?" she growled turning around.
"A wench. Why have a problem with being what you are?" He asked taunting her. She responded by taking on a battle stance.
"You actually want me to kill you?" he asked laughing.
"..." Was all he got for an answer. He too got into a fighting position and smirked.
"If you wanted to end your life sooner I shoulda let you walk into my brother's territory. He would have killed you in minutes.
"Whatever you say." She said as Inuyasha took out a sword, which transformed into a fang. (Don't worry. I know it only works on demons. There is a reason behind my madness!) Her eyes narrowed as he charged her the sword raised. She moved gracefully out the way as he swung leaving a crater in the ground. She did a back flip and landed on her feet as he swung and she ducked beneath the blow sliding between his leg and smacking him upside the head and kicking him in the butt before jumping back so he could pick himself up.
"Stay still!" he said glaring at her.
"Don't be a baby and take your beating like a man." She said. He put the sword away and charged her and threw his claws out to catch her in the throat before she bent backwards and balanced herself in a bridge (you know when your back is arched and both your hands and feet are on the floor) before tucking her feet in and kicking him in the chest causing him to fall before she put her feet on the ground landing in a kneeling position. Inuyasha got up and took out his sword again this time he appeared to be looking for something on her body.' An opening?' she thought and she braced herself as he charged her this time she managed to dodge but he came out with a kick to her stomach which caused her to lose her balance and she fell before she did a somersault as her brought the sword crashing down where her body once was. Taking her own swords out and got into another position to fight. She crossed the swords into an x shape as he brought it down again. This time she almost fell from the pressure and she saw his eyes tinge with red. Her eyes widened as he managed to push her to the ground throwing all his body weight onto her. Seeing once again that he left an opening she kicked out barely missing his 'prized area'. His eyes widened as he coughed and rolled over releasing the pressure on her body. She slowly got to her knees watching him he held his hands between his legs. (Now I'm sorry Inu-fans but this is funny!) She saw him growl and pick p the sword and charge her. The wind pick up around her as he barraged her with attacks. She coughed as he punched her in the gut knocking the wind out of her. She fell to her knees clutching her stomach wheezing as she tried to force air into her lungs. "Now you die." She heard him growl and she glared at him. She saw him go fuzzy before her eyes as he dried out. "Wind Scar!" and she blacked out. - Excel: There we go! Finished! Amiri: What! You can't end it there! You'll get flamed! Excel: Well its supposed to be a cliffy. So if I get flamed that's a good thing to show they're impatient. Iesha; at least right another page to show readers if Inuyasha killed her or not. Excel: Well its obvious she can't die! She's the freaking heroine of the story! La-la: Not true. She could be like Kagome in 'whispered dreams' by Youkai yume. Excel: True but I'm not that cruel or that good of a writer as of yet. Kawaii; I think your pretty good. Excel: Thank you. Amiri: But you still can't end it there. Excel: Oh fine I write a bit more yeesh! ; Celeste awoke to find herself in the same spot where she and that Inuyasha guy were fighting. But he was nowhere in sight. "Am I ... dead?" she thought looking at her hands. She smacked herself and yelped.' Ow!" She said clutching the abused cheek. She looked around till she heard a giggle. She turned to see a little girl of about 6 or 7 coming out of the bushes. "Your funny!" she said clapping her hands. Celeste smiled. This little girl was contagious! Then she thought for a second. "You're not a demon are you?" she asked going down to pick up her dropped swords, which were still on the ground. "No Rin isn't a demon" s the little girl replied with a wide smile once again. "But Rin knows 3 demons! Want to see them?" she asked as Celeste blanched at the thought of might having to fight a full-blooded demon when she hardly remembers beating a half one. "No not really." She said with a smile. Rin smiled even as a shadow loomed over the both of them. "Sesshomaru-sama!" she said before Celeste got knocked down and was pinned to the ground with a guy on top of her holding her throat his other hand flexed. "What are you trying to do?" he asked his voice deep and husky though no emotion in it. For some reason he sounded a little bit like Tai. As she was thinking this she coughed as his hand tightened around her throat and she lost air. "Do not make me repeat myself human." He said his eyes almost half closed as he bared his fangs. She glared at him and wheezed out. "I don't know how you expect me to talk if you're blocking my passage for air." she said her voice tiny due to lack of oxygen. His hand released some pressure and she gulped in air. Before she spoke. "I wasn't trying to do anything." She said looking into his molten gold gaze. 'Okay Tai and this guy could have a contest of who looks more bangin and I'd lose my mind if this one smiled and Tai did as well.' She thought almost missing his next question. "Then why were you talking to my ward?" he asked. She shrugged. "She came over to me when I smacked myself to see if I was alive.' She admitted blushing furiously as he ran a piercing gaze over her body. "Why would you think so?" he asked. At this point she realized he was going to get out of this awkward position till all of his questions were answered so she complied. "I was fighting someone with a giant sword and he yelled out Wind Scar before I blacked out so I was wondering if he had killed me.' she said truthfully as his elegant eyebrow rose a fraction of an inch. "Did this person have the name of Inuyasha?" he asked releasing a bit more pressure on her neck. "As a matter of fact he did. He wore this red hoari and he had dog-ears on his head." She said biting her lip as she thought. "And you lived?" he asked. She had the feeling of wanting to roll her eyes but showing disrespect to someone who can kill at this instant wouldn't be smart if you wanted to stay alive. "Well if you're choking me I'm pretty sure I'm quite alive." She said as he slid off of her. She sat up and put her sword away before standing up. "You will accompany me." he said as if commanding her. "What for?" she asked.
"The attack should have killed you yet you live with no other injuries except for the one's that I just gave you.' He said.
"It should have?" she said blinking rapidly. He nodded and she felt something warm come from her wrist. She held up her wrist to stare at her little jewel she had gotten from her older brother. It was a deep blue color with specks of silver seemingly inside of it. And it was glowing! She looked at he guy Rin called Sesshomaru-sama and called out his name her voice shaky. He turned around and she noticed one arm wasn't like the other. One looked almost normal while the other looked scaly. Kind like a dragons hide.
"What are you doing human?" he said almost growling.
"It's not me! It s doing it on its own!" she said her eyes wide. The jewel continued to glow before a little burst of light came out and hit Rin and Sesshomaru, yet neither one stumbled or fell. Then the light vanished. She looked at the jewel her eyebrows furrowed not noticing Rin's giggles or the crack of knuckles. She shook her head and gasped...
Excel: There now it is quite obvious she is alive and well.
Iesha: You call 'within 10 feet of Sesshomaru' alive and well? Are you crazy?
La-la: What happened to Inuyasha?
Excel: You'll find that out in the next chappie!
Amiri: But this is still a cliffhanger!
Excel: but its not as bad as the one I would have left in.
Amiri: but its still a cliffie!
Excel: Stop being a baby
Amiri: waaaah!
Excel:rolls her eyes and you call me immature?
Kawaii; What happened to Runaways?
Excel: Holy! I knew I forgot to update something!
Travonte; So when can we expect another update.
Excel: well since I won't have to sneak on the net after May 18 it might be another 3 weeks after that.
Everyone: Happy Cinco de Mayo and get ready for Chapter 3 :Hey what's happening to me! Dude! Where's my car! Ready? Go!
