Author's Note- 3 review for one chapter! I think it's a record! -.-;; Oh well. Thank you to those 3 people though! I love you guys! You keep my chapters coming! And if there really are people out there who just aren't reviewing, please review! I don't mind if it's anonymous, just please review!
Sorry it's a little short, but if I didn't end it here it would have been way too long.
Sesshoumaru looked up as Lausanne returned to the campsite. "You smell of my brother's companions." he commented.
The elf nodded, picking up Tachi. "They were at the hot spring." she replied, "Does it bother you."
"Get on your horse." Sesshoumaru commanded, standing up, "We are leaving."
Lausanne raised an eyebrow. "You are not going to fight?" she questioned.
He shook his head.
"Why not?"
"I do not wish to be involved with my brother tonight." Sesshoumaru explained, picking Rin up and placing her on Ah-Un "
Shrugging, Lausanne, mounted Mooneclipse and waiting for Sesshoumaru to start leading the way. It didn't take long. Soon after, the taiyoukai started walking in a direction opposite to the hot springs.
"We are going where we were coming from." Lausanne commented.
"We are going around." Sesshoumaru corrected.
They traveled in silence for a while.Lausanne sat on her horse with Tachi, playing with the pup's little fingers. Sesshoumaru walked ahead of them and Ah-Un.
"Could I have the jewel Kijustsu no Senyo shards you possess now?" Lausanne finally asked.
"What will you do with your jewel when you possess it?"Sesshoumaru questioned. "Will you use it for what it was created for?"
Lausannelooked at him in surprise. "There is no point." she retorted, "The Kijustsu no Senyo was created to keep demons from over coming elves. Now that demons have taken the elves' place as the controlers of this country, there is no way that the jewel could have enough power to bring the power back to the elves."
"You still have not answered my first question." Sesshoumaru commented.
"That is because there is no answer yet." Lausanne answered, "So could I have the shards now?"
"No. You irritate me."

The sun was rising when Sesshoumaru finally decided to stop. He looked back at his travel companions. Jaken looked tired. He was leaning against Ah-Un. As for Lausanne and Rin, they were sleeping soundly on their mounts. Lausanne held Tachi protectively in her arms.
Sighing, Sesshoumaru supposed he should let the three sleepers rest in a more comfortable place. Carefully, he picked up Rin and puther down on the ground. He then turned to Lausanne and Tachi. This time the taiyoukai didn't even try to pull Tachi out of the elf's arms. He just picked them up together.
Sesshoumaru took a bit of time to look at the girl in his arms. Her hair was longer than he'd noticed. Perhaps it was because she had left it down instead of braiding it like she usually did. Lausanne's complexsion was also a bit surprising. Sesshoumaru knew how much time she spent in the sun, yet her skin was just as pale as his. 'An elf feature.' he thought to himself. 'Just like her ears...' Something occured to him. 'I have these features as well.'
Lausanne's eyes opened. "Have we stopped?" she asked sleepily.
"Yes." Sesshoumaru replied, putting her down next to Rin, "We will be leaving again soon so use this time wisely." He walked over to a tree and leaned against it.
The elf sat up, still holding Tachi. "I am awake now so there is no point going back to sleep." she explained, getting up and taking a seat against the tree he was leaning on. "Why did we stop?"
"I believe the answer would be apparent to you." Sesshoumaru said, "You are the one who insists that we stop everyday. I stopped for you."
"For me?"
"For Rin as well"
Lausanne giggled. "Yes." she agreed, "I believe I will use this time to gather some food for Rin, Tachi, and me. We are running low. Will you watch Tachi for me?"
Sesshoumaru eyed the pup in Lausanne's arms. "Uh, if I must." he replied.
Smiling, Lausanne handed Tachi over to Sesshoumaru. "Thank you Sesshoumaru-sama." she said bowing slightly, "I will be as quick as possible."
As she turned to go, Tachi began to whimper, then cry. Frowning, Sesshoumaru patted the child aquardly. "Silence." he said quietly, "Do not cry." Tachi's cries immedietly subsided, returning to whimpers.
"How did you do that?" Lausanne asked, surprised.
"He's a dog demon." Sesshoumaru explained, looking down at Tachi, "He knows I am the domineering male here, therefore he listens to me. As for what you are collecting, your pup wants meat, not fruits. Remember he is a demon."
Lausanne nodded, pulling her bow and arrows out of her bag. "I will be back soon." she said, "I will bring meat. It has been a while since we have had meat."
"Could Rin come with you?" Rin asked, sitting up and yawning.
"Do you want to?" Lausanne asked.
"Yes. I want to learn how to use a bow and arrow just like you, Lausanne-san!"
The elf giggled. "Alright then." she replied, "But you have to be very very quiet, do you think you can do that?"
"Rin'll be silent!" Rin exclaimed, happily jumping up, "She promises!"
"Then come along." Lausanne said, walking towards the forest.
