Hee, hee, hee...You'll just have to wait and see what happens in this chapter...
Chapter Four...Cliff Hanger
"Eh? Lord, what's that ahead?" asked Jaken as he pointed to a cliff. They were flying on their two-headed dragon, and were going past a range carved out over the thousands of years by oceans, wind, and other weather based conditions.
Sesshomaru looks up (he was in a fit of thinking again) and looks to were his retainer was pointing. The cliff was still far away, and Sesshomaru squinted to see. As they got closer, his eyes got wide with realization. Jaken had a questioning look at this.
"Jaken, fly towards that as fast as possible," Sesshomaru said, not taking his eyes off the cliff.
"Uh, right, sir," and Jaken did just that, not knowing what was so important. (Jaken's a little dense, ne?)
OOOOOOOOO
"Heh, heh, heh, hee," laughed the demon brothers as they advanced more on there prey hanging off the edge of the cliff. Rin started to panic when she felt their breath going down her neck. She looked up at them and saw they were bending over the cliff to grab her. One already had its grubby hand reaching for her shirt. Rin gave out a short cry, then looked down at her other option.
Get eaten, or...fall and possibly die...or fall and possibly get eaten by another demon. She didn't want to do anyone of those things, but letting go of the cliff would at least either buy her time or put her out of her misery.
One finger started to wrap around the hem of her shirt when she let go"NO!" cried the brothers in unison as their prey fell out of their sight. They straightened up and started to fight"You had a finger on her, why didn't you grab her tight enough?"
"You know you have the better reflexes! Why didn't YOU grab her?"
ZWIK!
The latter's head went flying off. The other brother was startled and was stumbling backwards to get the body off of him. He was most surprised when he ran into yet another body. He turned as his brother's corpse fell, and saw he ran into nonother than Sesshomaru, but he didn't know who he was of course. Sesshomaru was holding out Tokijin, which he used to kill the demon. The demon straightened, and faced Sesshomaru"Who are you?"
"That is not of your concern. I saw you had a young human girl with you. Where is she?" asked the sword-wielder.
"You mean my lost meal? She let go?" the demon answered.
"Let...go?" asked Sesshomaru, even though he already knew what that meant.
"Yeah, she let go of the cliff and fell. She's probably broken in two by now...What a waste of good hum-" the demon started, but his head two came off. Sesshomaru sheathed his sword and turned to Jaken, who just landed with the dragon. (Sesshomaru jumped off before they officially landed)
"Jaken."
"Uh, yes, Lord?" asked the imp as he got off the dragon.
"Get ready to fly again. We're going down to the bottom of the cavern," Sesshomaru said as he got onto the dragon. Jaken was dumbfounded that he had to get back on, but snapped out after he heard the dragons taking off"Wait for meee!"
OOOOOOOOO
The pair had searched the bottom of the carvern below the cliff, but Rin's body didn't turn up. Now they were looking on ledges that were in between the cliff and cavern. Nothing yet.
Sesshomaru was practically biting his nails. He didn't show it, though.
Where is she? I can smell her, but can't track the smell right to where she is. Why? This is even worse than finding her dead. At least that way I'd know if she was alright then bring her back to life. But this...
"Lord Sesshomaru?" cried Jaken as he pointed to a ledge they hadn't yet checked. Ironicaly, it was about five yards under the place where Rin had been hanging. Sesshomaru looked at what was on that ledge, and gasped"Rin..."
But, she wasn't moving. She was lying down, and not moving. They flew closer and got off the dragon. There was a gash on her head from where she made contact with the ledge. She wasn't moving...
No...Not this way...She still thinks I hate her...No...
