a/n Hey everyone I'm ungrounded! my grandma was in a bad mood. and I don't blame you it is not your fault. (you know who u are)
Oh and the peanut gallery is in the hospital. acorn and pecan accidentally go squished. lets just say true form and Sesshy. Well enough about me on with the story!
Chapter 5: Some kindness and a meeting with Narkau?
A few weeks had passed and Ashrei was the new general for Sesshomaru. He was surprised at the way she taught the soldiers.
FLASHBACK
"I heard there is a new general for Lord Sesshomaru" a soldier said to another. They were given orders to go to the dojo to meet the new general. There were about 20 men there.
"He must not be very good to ask for only 20 men," the other one said. Just then the doors opened and the men stood in a line. That is when Ashrei walked in. most of the men just started laughing. "That is our new general? A woman?" the men started to laugh even more and harder.
"Laugh all you want but what you see is the truth." Ashrei replied in a monotone voice.
"Well missy," the first soldier said, "I think that you and me need to show who here is the boss." he advanced forward and was already in the offence.
"I suggest that you stop now or you will humiliate yourself if front of everyone."
"Quit your jabbering and fight me," just then he lunged at her. She did not move and he did not hit her. "How did you do that?" he said with amazement.
"Easy I moved" a snicker came from the crowd and people started to bet on who would win. Very few people betted on Ashrei, but she did not care. He lunged again and missed yet she did not move. He had gotten very angered and he turned into his true form. (a wolf the size of Sesshomaru in his true form.) "So you want to play at that game you shall fear me after I am done with you." Just then Sesshomaru, who was on the other side of the castle, felt a strong vibe that would make any demon run for cover. Well almost any. He ran to where the power was coming from. The dojo. He should have known where the power was coming from. When he went through the door he saw Ashrei in front of a huge wolf. He was about to jump in the middle of the battle but Ashrei already started to transform. When she was done she looked like him but she had black fur and black….wings? Her wings had feathers and red tips.'So she is a mixed breed? That explains why she was not scared of me' she bared her fangs but the wolf did not stand down. It was mad and it started to attack. Ashrei charged into him and grabbed him by the throat with her mouth. Sesshomaru knew that she could kill him with her poison but it seemed that she did not want to kill him. He thrashed and tried to break free but he could not break free. Finally after a while he stopped moving. Not from suffocation but because he gave up at trying to win. She let go of him and turned back to her humanoid form.
"next time you will listen won't you puppy?" the wolf turned back to his humanoid form too and just nodded. "now if there will be no more interruptions we will get to training" no one disagreed and the started to train.
END FLASHBACK
He shook his head at the memory. Ifhedid not get her out of his headsoon hewould not be able towork. She had been gone for a few days due to her job in the halls of time. He had no idea that she could have come back at anytime but was with his enemy right at that moment.
(With Narkau)
He waited for her to show up. 'Damn when will she get here?' "Ahh speak of the devil."
"Not funny. Do you relies how hard it is to be innocent and nice all of the time?" she said. "I had to show him my secret in order to get away at times."
"He had gotten through the doors? How?" This was a question that he him self wanted to know. When he found out about Ashrei's secret he himself could not get through the door. How can a emotionless demon answer the question that is for the caring?
"His mother told him," she said coolly.
"Oh, I guess she is dead?"
"Another one of my missions from a former boss."
"I see, and has he shown any trust?"
"No, but he has shown kindness and curiosity," she said not telling him that she has also taken a curiosity Sesshomaru.
"That, my dear, is the first step to falling in love." Narkau said smiling. 'Did he just say that? No no and no. I DO NOT love. Love has caused me a near death experience. I do not even love narkau. I just want his power. I can't fall in love.' Ashrei had noticesed that she also wanted to know more about Sesshomaru. She thought it was just for her power. It was like she wanted to see the true him not a fake or a mask.
"Is something wrong, my dear?" Narkau asked. She seemed to fall into her thoughts for a second and did not answer his next question.
"No, did you say something?" Ashrei said in a hurry noticing that she had gotten lost in her thoughts.
"I asked if you have a plan to make him come closer to you?"
"No not right now. It is too early, too soon. He would let me die before he would save me"
"Very well you may go for now," she left and started back toward the castle. 'Ashrei you are holding back and if I have to I will make a plan of my ownif youknow about it or not.'
end-
Well that's it for this chapter. This will probably be the longest. maybe the last chapter to the story will be longer but hey you never know.I had gotten a phone call from the hospital. They said that the peanut gallery is ok and will be back soon. Maybe by the next chapter. Or later depending on how fast u guys review. Bye for now.
May your swords stay sharp.
