4. Surprised to Say the Least

"InuYasha!" screeched Kagome as he continued to ignore her, "She's been gone since last night!"

"And..."

"And! And! She could be in danger! She could be dead and all you can say is and!"

"She's a big girl! She can take care of herself!" he stated as she glared at him.

"Inuyasha..." she started while placing her hands on her hips, "SIT!" his face came crashing into the dirt along with the rest of him. She turned on her heel and walked off.

"Grrr..." he got up from the dirt and turned to Miroku, "You know this is your fault!" he shouted at the him, "Damn monk..." he murmured then stormed off after Kagome. Miroku looked down at Shippo and smiled sadly.

"Well, shall we be off now." he said and headed in Inuyasha's direction. Shippo looked at kilala a little confused at what just happend.

He shrugged it off, "I don't get them either."

------------------------------------------------------------

She was so cold. She was so uncomfortable. She was...not at her usual camping grounds. 'Where am I?' she thought without opening her eyes. Then she remembered the last thing that happend to her. The pain that was once in her abdomen was now gone. She shot up quickly, and looked around frantically, until she heard the icy voice of the TaiYoukai.

"Human." he stared at her as she whirled around to face him. To her surprise she came face to face with the great demon lord and brother of Inuyasha.

"What do you want!" she more demanded than asked.

"I do not answer questions I do not wish to answer," irritated by her tone he finished with a semi-threat, "and do you dare speak like that to a demon such as I!"

She stood there, not really paying much attention to him. Her mind was still stuck on the night Miroku broke her heart. She was angry. She wanted her pain to go away. She wanted to fight. "Damn you demon! I speak how I wish!" she shouted as the blood in her body started to boil.

"Impudent wench! Know your place!" he grabbed her by her throat and slammed her into a nearby tree. She new she was out matched, but that wasn't going to stop her from fighting back. She looked around for her weapon, and when she spotted it she kneed him in his "sensitive area",unknowing to him. He let the girl drop to the floor as he grabbed his wounded area. She ran to grab her boomerang and thrusted it at him, while he was still panting.

"Idiotic wo-" he was cut off by the pain in his back. He was surprised that a human could have so much power, let alone attack him. He moved out of the attack before the weapon could cut through him. "Foolish Taijiya!" he yelled using his demonic speed to push her back against the tree again. "I shall kill you now!" he pulled out his Tokijin and lifted it to her neck.

"Lord Sesshomaru," Rin sang as she came back with Jaken to the clearing. When he heard her call him he quickly lowered his powerful sword and sheathed it. "We brought the water, just as you requested my lord. Rin also brought new attire!" she paused looking at Sango, with a short breath, "My lady! You have awakend!"

"Um," she looked at Sesshomaru confused, 'Why did he not kill me?' she looked back at the child, "yes, I-I'm fine, um..." she said gesturing her to tell her, her name. She new she had traveled with the lord, but she had not known her name.

"My name is Rin, this is master Jaken and lord Sesshomaru!" Sango had already known the name of the great demon lord and toad, but she thought it was sweet that she introduced everyone, "and yours my lady?"

"Uh its Sango, and thanks for helping me!" she said smiling at the child.

"But lady Sango you helped me!" she smiled back.

"Jaken!" his icy voice interupted grabing everyones attention, "take Rin back to my keep, its much safer there."

"May lady Sango come to-" she was cut off by her lord.

"She must leave know." Sangos face went from sweetness at the girl,to hate at Sesshomaru. Rin looked down and sat the water and clothes on the ground before sadly walking off with Jaken.

"By lady Sango!" she said over her shoulder. That for some reason, to Sango, it reminded her of Miroku.

"Good-bye Rin!" she responded. Sesshomaru had his back to her.

"Now," he started, "leave my lands, or I shall not hesitate to-" he was interupted by his body smashing onto the ground. She flipped him over and he was face to face with the demon slayer. Her legs straddeled along the sides of his hips, and she stared at him. 'What the hell? How could she have caught me off guard?' he thought over more surprised by her strength. That only made her seem more attractive.

"Our fight isn't over demon!" she said as she started to pull out her katana, but he stopped her by flipping her over so that he was above her.

"Foolish Human! Daring to challenge me in battle, is suicide," he said as his anger grew, "now, leave or die." she looked at him hatefully. He didn't care about what she thought of him, but it was then that he relized how pure her face looked, even when angry. His eyes quickly gazed upon her oddly structured outfit. Odd, though it was, but quite appealing. His eyes moved from her body to her lips as she spoke.

"Then get off me!" she shouted as he growled lowly and shoved off her. She stood up and attemted to pat some dirt away. 'What the hell is wrong with him? Was he...' she had noticed the way he was looking at her, wasn't usual, but she soon shook it off and grabbed the water and clothes that Rin had brought for her.

As she began to walk off, the second scent from before soon invaded his nose. He stared at Sango as she walked away. "Hn." he turned around to walk in the other direction.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

"What a jerk!" she said aloud, "I can't believe he's so...so..." she stoped to see a hot spring that was calling her name. She was sort of dirty from being tossed to the ground. "Guess its bath time!" she smiled to herself, undressed and got in.

Unknown to her were the magenta eyes of her new stalker watching her bathe. 'She is strong, she is brave, she is atractive,' the voice thought, 'and she will be mine...'

-----------------------------------------------------------------

The TaiYoukai continued on his way, but he couldn't help but wonder who the other scent belonged to. 'Rin said there was a demon. That woman.' he growled thinking the worst, 'She must be working with the demon who attacked Rin.' after being satisfied with his deducing, he turned on his heel and headed back in the direction Sango went off to. 'She will pay for believing she could trick this Sesshomaru.'

------------------------------------------------------------------

"Mmmmm..." she moaned as she sunk lower into the warm water. "This is nice, and well deserved!" she giggled. Her mind soon drifted to the lord. 'What a jerk...' she thought as she remembered him staring down on her, "and just what the hell was he looking at?" she said aloud as she started to blush, 'well, he is kinda cute...and his eyes, his eyes are so-' her thoughts were cut off by a noise coming from the bushes.

She picked up a rock and prepared to toss it when a small squirel came from out of them. She lowered the rock and laughed at herself, for being so parinoid. She then continued her conversation with herself, 'What are you thinking Sango? He's a selfish, inconsiderate-'

Another noise came from the bushes. "Hmm, probably just another-ahhh!" she screeched when she saw the demon lord come from behind some bushes. "What the hell are you doing?" she said trying to cover herself.

"Don't flatter yourself woman!" he said not even looking at her. He continued to stare into the trees for a moment, giving Sango time to get out and pull the kimono over her body. He turned to her and in an ugly tone demanded, "Where is he?"

She stared at him in a daze, "What are you talking about?" she said getting annoyed by his abrupt entrance.

"Don't be stupid woman! He is here! I can smell him..." she looked at him as relization hit her upside the head.

"You mean, th-there's someone watching me bathe..." she said, feeling sick and glancing up at the trees. Sesshomaru looked at her oddly.

'She isn't lying...she doesn't know that there is another presence here...'

"Show yourself!" she said into the trees. For a second there was silence, but it was soon interupted by laughter. The demon then jumped out of the tree infront of the demon lord, leaving much distance between them.

"Hello, Sesshomaru..." he greeted in annoying tone. Sango looked back and forth at the two demons.

"What is your business here?" he ordered.

"Oh, great lord Sesshomaru," he started in a teasing manner, "that will be of your concern later." he then turned his attention to Sango who squirmed under his stare."In the mean time, I wish to take that human off your hands." he said as he continuously licked his lips.

"Uh!" she stepped closer to Sesshomaru only to be yanked by the arm and tossed infront of him.

"Take her! I have no need for a filthy human." he said in an unchanging volume. Sango spun around to look at him angerily.

"How dare you! I don't belong to you!" She shouted getting more pissed by the second. "You cant just hand me over to someone!" he growled at her change in attitude.

"Have you forgotten your place, woman!" he said as his hands went for her neck, but were stopped by her delicate hands gripping his wrist. She surprised him even more by the look in her eyes. She had shown him her fear.

Sango couldn't lie to herself, she'd much rather be with the feared TaiYoukai, then the man that stood behind her. She held his gaze, "Your willing to give him the one thing he wants after he just threatend Rin? Don't," she lowered her hands and his arm fell to his side. She looked at him in a more pleading manner, "don't let him take me..."
