Za Kunrin zani Doragon Sama
The Reign of the Dragon Lord
The group had stopped to rest for the night. As they sat around the campfire, they began to talk about the dragon from earlier.
"So, what WAS that about?" asked sango.
"I don't know. Maybe we did trespass on its territory." stated kagome.
"I don't' think it's that simple." Stated inuyasha.
"Why do you say that?" asked sango.
"I've fought with dragons before, they never fight for just stupid reasons. There's always a motive behind it. I just can't figure out what it had against us?"
"Maybe it didn't have anything against us, maybe naraku sent it to kill us?" stated miroku.
"Well, whatever the reason doesn't matter right now. All that matters is the fact that that dragon can't hurt us anymore. Now, let's just get some sleep and deal with this in the morning when we're well rested." Suggested kagome while she yawned.
"Kagome's right, we should sleep. Goodnight." Stated sango as she lied down.
Soon, everyone was asleep but inuyasha couldn't shake the feeling that they were being watched. He slept lightly that night because of it.
They were indeed being watched. The woman from the cliff watched them. She watched silently, her yellow eyes taking in the sleeping forms in the clearing. Soon, she left, seeing all she needed to see.
She silently ran through the forest toward the Kuro Mountains, where the rest of her clan resided.
She ran until she came to a large cave. She disarmed the barrier and walked in. After resetting the barrier, she walked down the tall cavern, catching the eye of every one present.
She soon came to a pair of large doors. She easily opened them and walked into the chamber. She knelled in front of a giant ice crystal. With her head bowed, she began to speak.
"My lord, I was unable to retrieve the jewel from them."
Silence.
"I know I failed you my lord. Please, give me another chance."
Silence.
"Oh, thank you my lord! I promise I won't fail you again!"
Silence.
"But my lord, I will not fight them myself!"
The cavern shook with an invisible force.
"Fine my lord, I'll do as you say."
With that, the woman left the Kuro Mountains in search of the inu gang.
