Ryuuketsu: the author does not own inuyasha

General Zargon:-pouts- enjoy the chapter

Hibiki ran as shouts rose from the burning wreckage that once was her home 'daddy' Hibiki thought as tears streamed down her face and then she heard someone shout right behind her "one's escaping! Get her!" the bandit shouted as they gave chase 'ryu please help' Hibiki thought desperately as she ran towards the valley.

Hibiki was panting from exhaustion as she reached the peak of the valley and was about to descend when an arrow came flying out of nowhere and struck her on the shoulder which caused her to scream in pain and tumble down the rest of the way into the valley to land with a loud thud.

Ryukotsusei looked up in surprise when he heard a loud thud echo off the valley walls 'what the?' he thought and then he saw Hibiki lying there with an arrow protruding from her shoulder which caused him to growl as he saw the bandits climb down into the valley 'how dare they!' he thought with pure hatred as Hibiki struggled up to his body and collapsed.

The bandits laughed when they saw her "you foolish girl! Did you think a corpse could save you!" one of them sneered at her as they advanced on her as ryukotsusei could only watch, then the strangest thing happened, ryukotsusei's soul was dragged back into his body and his eyes snapped open.

The bandits froze when ryukotsusei lifted his head to look at them and bare his teeth "foolish humans! How dare you trespass here!" ryukotsusei shouted as his dragon mouth gathered energy "now you shall die!" he finished as he released the energy ball which easily disintegrated the bandits.

Ryukotsusei snorted and then looked down at Hibiki in concern though he didn't know why 'is she okay' he thought as he gently removed the arrow and winced as Hibiki cried out in pain 'it must really hurt' ryukotsusei thought in sympathy as he nuzzled Hibiki gently with the tip of his nose.

A few hours later Hibiki slowly opened her eyes and looked up to see the top of a cave that she couldn't remember going into "are you alright?" a deep voice questioned her as a dragon head with a mask on it's forehead appeared in her line of vision, Hibiki smiled and said quietly "I'm alright" with that she went back to sleep.

Ryukotsusei blinked and nodded to himself, having made a quick decision and then with a determined look in his eyes he curled around Hibiki and promptly went to sleep.
