Chip was an orphan, abandoned since long by his ruthless evil father who had tried to use his spirit for his own needing. Ever since Chip's mother had died his father had looked down on him, laughing whenever he was close, whenever he did something. Chip had been used by torture, and two years ago he had finally managed to escape. He had lived a year as a common small thief until he had been taken far an apprentice with Monhu and learnt the secrets behind becoming a master thief. Chip maybe was small, but he had never ever been caught and his rare electric ability made it extremely hard for his enemies to catch him. One common thing everyone knew was that if you wanted to catch a thunder fox was to let an even stronger thunder fox catch it for you. Chip wasn't classified as one of the stronger. He wasn't weak, he was very strong considering his age, but if his father had decided to duel him he knew he would soon be a crisp fox. His father was counted as one of the strongest. Chip even suspected it was he who had killed his mother.
A red haired man with a huge fluffy tail and evil looking eyes appeared from the top of a cloud. The cloud kept shooting thunderclaps as arrows on them, but so far it hadn't hit.
"I see someone has taken my son from me, it's a bad thing to enrage a Thunder Fox, I thought most spirits knew that by now."
Chip hesitated, should he fight his father here and risk the health of these people, or should he gently follow his father back It was a hard question, he hated risking other peoples lives, yet he didn't want to return to his father.
Unknowingly Kohaku had also listened to what the older fox said. Chihiro looked worriedly at him, his face was pale and it looked like he had strayed back into some old time when his river had started floating.
Xing, who still didn't trust the fox and thought it would be best if they just sent him home where he belonged was about to nudge the poor spirit towards his father when suddenly a bolt of lightning struck by his feet. Apparently the older fox didn't want any of his preys to move. It made Xing enraged, once before he had met a fox like that, and almost gotten himself killed. Angry as ever he transformed into the Tiger and roared.
Deko too transformed and ran up in front of the poor boy who was shocked to see two spirits suddenly rampage towards his father. The older fox just smiled and two gigantic lightnings rained down shocking the two spirits nearly to death. This fox's powers were even at one point worse then Yubaba's. Both Deko and Xing were thrashed back into a tree.
Lin fired an arrow, which unfortunately the fox noticed and with one wave of his hand it changed direction. Unprepared, yet acting by reflects, Lin tossed herself to the ground. Chihiro had only been some feet from getting hit. Even she had started to get irritated.
"How did it do that?" Lin asked.
"It's the fields around" Chip explained. "Whenever a thunder fox claims a piece of a land even the wind commands him or her. Father must have claimed this land before I got here, but how did he find me?"
To their answer the older fox laughed evilly. "Now, my boy. Will you come home again or shall I force you."
"You shall force no one!" Kohaku said. Everyone's heads turned towards him. Kohaku looked more alive then ever, and in his eyes Chihiro saw the coldness she hadn't seen for years. She had a feeling his mind was still down in some memories, and from everything she knew she didn't want to loose him again. She remembered how frightened she had been seeing him so cold when she had been in the bathhouse.
"Is that a challenge, are you challenging me to a duel between thunder and in your case, unimportant water basics. You know you stand no chance."
"You haven't seen my full powers, you troll of the mad clouds themselves." Kohaku said, his eyes burning of hate.
Chihiro backed, Lin stood up and she hurried over to Xing and Deko. The four of them hurried of and hid behind some rocks. Chip hesitated then followed them, hurrying as fast as his legs carried him.
The older fox grinned.
"Do you have a name?" Kohaku said rolling up his sleeves. The weakness they had seen in him seemed to be washed away. All there was in him was determination and strength.
"The older fox smiled. "Of course! You can call me Tseyo."
TBCTo Reviewers: So sorry for this short chapter, but I wanted to add some real excitement into this. If you are nice reviewers this time I'll maybe update sooner then usual. If I get more then my usual five reviews, then I'll start with the next chapter in this.
Winter –iel –o burzum: Well, I have a week of holiday soon, so I am hoping on getting the next chapter up sometime during it. And yes, me too, I hate exams. I have two more in two weeks! (plays dead)
wyldcat: Yeah, Lin really knows when to make the wrong entrance. All though, Chip was an idea I got after starting to read Inuyasha (the Manga, the episodes aren't shown up here).
Ashley R: Sorry I didn't update so soon, but I have so many fics that needs updating it takes time to come back to this. Yet I hope you liked this chapter.
Velf: Weird enough I have about all Author Alerts I signed in for, which means I have too many and less time to read. As you may have seen I haven't reviewed yours for ages and I'm sorry for that but I don't have any reading energy at the moment. Maybe you should try to replace me at the Author Alert or something, I don't know. You are on the list among those who have me on their author alert.
Storm Maker: Well, guess I made it clear that Chip's father is a REAL troublemaker and as far as I have counted them it may take a while for them to continue. I just noticed a problem with having read Inuyasha and then used Chip into this story. I think of him too much as Shippô, which gives you problem considering its two completely different stories. I'll perhaps go and make one Inuyasha fic one day, when I have finished at least two of my stories.
End Notes: I have a week of holiday soon, and I'm hoping of making at least two more chapters for this. Yet until next time, review!
