Worth a Sister's Randsom
Dragon Man 180- Jaken doesn't think things that far ahead. -.-; They might...
SargeAC130- Short chapters... I'm cursed with them. -.-; I'll try to add more details in this chapter.
DarkPirate-510- She's very smart.
Naraku watched, anger rising in his face as Natsuko rejected his offer of a controlling jewel shard. This had been the first time someone had said that to him. He didn't know how to respond. He just watched her leave.
Natsuko walked down hallway after hallway, never quite sure where she was going. She hated the castle for that. At her castle she always knew where she was going and there was always a friendly face around the next corner. Not here. If you were lucky you'd meet no one. If you were slightly unlucy you'd meet Kanna. And if you were unlucky you'd meet Kagura. She could make any day into a bad one.
But Natsuko did not meet either one on her walk. She didn't know where she was going either. She was just walking for the sake of doing something. Her thoughts strayed. Were her brothers looking for her? No doubt they were. But where they together was the real question. Natsuko scrunched up her nose in distaste. The eggs in her obi had gone bad from the heat of them against her body. She'd have to find a place to get rid of them.
Suddenly Natsuko stopped. Her sharp demon eyes had picked something out on the ground. It was a square... Wait. It wasn't just any square in the ground. A trap door without a handle!
Natsuko got down on her knees and inserted her claws into the space between the floor and the door and pulled up to reveal a set of stairs. She opened the door a little more so that she could slip onto the stairs. When the demoness let go of the trap door it stayed where it was. Using the bit of light from the opening Natsuko made her way down the stairs to see what was there.
BANG!
Rin stirred in Sesshoumaru's arms and opened her eyes. "Why are we traveling already?" she asked as Sesshoumaru put her down. "The group left early." he replied simply. "Do you want to play?" Shippo asked running up to Rin?"
"Don't play hide and seek!" Kagome said, "We don't want to lose either one of you." "Rin and Shippo will play eye spy." Rin replied happily, "Shippo taught Rin it yesterday! Rin likes eye spy." "So do I!" Shippo said happily. "I don't care what the hell you two do as long as you don't get on my nerves." Inuyasha grumbled. Kagome scowled at him. "Be nice." she warned.
The stairwell went dark, but Natsuko didn't flinch. "The door must have closed." she said to herself, "No problem." Natsuko mumbled a strange word and a small ball of light appeared in her hands, showing her the way down the rest of the stairs. There weren't many left.
She stepped off the last step and took a look around. The room was plain. It seemed to be some sort of hidden room. It might have been made for raids to keep the lords of the palace safe and hidden. It was not a dungeon as she had thought. Natsuko was slightly disappointed. She made a silent decision to try and find the dungeon some time.
The room was completely empty. It was starting to fall into disrepair too. Beams were falling from the ceiling and some stones were missing from the walls. The floor was made of dirt and some parts of it seemed to be covered in different colored slimes. It was overall disgusting.
Natsuko turned to leave, bumping into Naraku. She gasped in surprise. The demoness had neither smelled or heard him approach. "I see you've found my hidden room." he said smirking slightly, "I'm a hanyou, you know. This is where I go during my human night. "I can't see you as a human." Natsuko spat, "Even the grosest human is nicer than you."
"Indeed." he replied, "My human night is nothing like your brother's. For I do not turn fully human, instead you could say my body... falls apart." "That's disgusting." she said flatly, "But then again it suits you because you too are disgusting."
The next scene happened quickly. Naraku grabbed Natsuko by the arm. Natsuko's free hand shot into her obi, pulling out the two eggs. Before Naraku knew it, two rotten eggs were in his hair and on his face. He let go of her to clean it off. Natsuko shot up the stairs.
"Wench!" he yeleld, "You'll pay for this!" "Is that true?" she asked, disappearing into the hallway above.
Kagome: Naraku deserved that.
Inuyasha: (pulls Tetsusaiga out) He deserves what I'm giving him!
Sesshoumaru: You mean what Sesshoumaru is giving him. (grabs Tetsusaiga and the sword detransforms)
Inuyasha: Give it back!
Sesshoumaru: Never.
Inuyasha: NOW!
Sesshoumaru: No.
Clear Waters: I'm glad they're not trying to kill each other.
Kagome: It's just neither of them want to pay for remodeling your house.
Sango: I'm sure they'd be battling to the death if they were in some wide open field.
Miroku: Agreed.
Clear Waters: Yes.
Inuyasha: Give it BACK!!!!
Sesshoumaru: How many times do I have to tell you? This Sesshoumaru will never give it back.
Inuyasha: Please?
Sesshoumaru: You're pathetic.
Kagome: Inuyasha, did you just say PLEASE?
Inuyasha: It was worth a try. (turns back to Sesshoumaru) GIVE IT BACK NOW!!!!
Sesshoumaru: The sword belongs to me.
Clear Waters: R&R everyone!
Inuyasha: No it doesn't! Father gave it to me there for it's MINE!
Sesshoumaru: I'll trade you the Tensaiga for the Tetsusaiga.
Inuyasha: NO! GIVE ME BACK MY DAMN SWORD!!!!!!!!!! NOWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!
Sesshoumaru: You sound like a baby.
