Chappie 4: Feelings of a Protective DemonLord

My ward was talking non-stop about the miko, her......'kaa-san. Suddenly my ward stopped and turned around. She would have gone fleeing towards where her mother had been if I'd not stopped her.

"Sesshomaru-sama something's happening to Rin's 'kaa-san!" my Rin said struggling still. I turned her and gave her a push towards where camp lay.

"I will take care of it, Rin" she smiled, that smile that was so like her okaa-san's, at me and left. I couldn't leave the miko alone. I don't know why, besides the fact that she was Rin's mother now, I am going after her. But my instincts were telling me to, and I don't question my instincts, no matter how much I wished to. I made sure Rin was at the camp before heading in the direction the onna had taken. She was entering a clearing, Inuyasha no where to be seen, nothing really new there. Probably had something to do with the smell of clay, dirt, and ashes that filed the air. The dead miko, the one that looked like this one, this Kagome. She had her blue-grey eyes closed. I slight wondered why until the smell of miasma filled the air lightly. Her eyes flew open and began to shift colors rapidly. Fear became laced through her scent. Was she afraid of the evil hanyou? My attention was shifted as the subtle scent of arousal became overwhelming. It wasn't coming from her, thankfully, I would have had to question her if she became aroused at the sight of a hanyou in a baboon pelt. She clutched the kitsune pup closer.

"Naraku?" she whispered breathlessly and her shifting eyes settled on a storm-cloud blue. I let a growl rumble through my chest, why I don't know I just did.

"Little miko, what are you doing out without your guard?" the hanyou said to her before the malicious glint betrayed that he was going to attack her. I felt the need to instinct to portect her so I did. Sweeping her out of harms way as a tentacle went though my left shoulder. It hurt but I did not grimace, nor did the girl scream, I noted with some unknown pride, had passed those enchanting lips when I had yanked from the unsafe ground. She turned in my arm, she must have felt safe, because she tried to bury the pup and herself against me. She whimpering slightly, though she probably didn't know it.

"Sesshomaru..." the hanyou muttered angrily, reminding me of another's presence in the clearing beside that of mysel fand the onna. The miko.....Kagome......didn't jerk her head up like I thought she would. I was cetain she thought I was Inuyasha. Instead she gave a low whimper and tried to get deeper in my embrace. I wanted to soothe her, nuzzle her neck till she was happy again.

'The fuck? Where the hell is this coming from?' I thought uneasily. If the onna coould ditract me from batle this much then she could prove to be fatal. A whimper from.....Kagome.... brought me out of my musings in time to dodge another tentacle.

"Naraku" I ground out. I was getting angry, angry at the hanyou for scaring Kagome, at Kagome for getting scared, and at myself for wanting to protect Kagome. When did I start calling the miko by name? She snuck fearful glances towards Naraku as she tried to basically melt into me. I had to admit, unwillingly of course (A/N Sure Fluffy), for a human she felt heavenly pressed up against me, even if the pup was in the way.

"Lord Sesshomaru-sama!" my ears twitched as Rin's voice brought me out of my thoughts and back to the clearing. That glint was back in the hanyou's eyes and I soon found out why. As Rin burst int th eclearing a tentacle shot towards her heart, unseen and unnoticed...
