Author's Notes: I suck at summaries; points to the above entry; so bear with me here. I REALLY don't want this to turn into a Mary Sue. I repeat, IT'S NOT A MARY SUE! IT'S NOT A MARY SUE! (HEY LOOK AT ME! I'M NEW!)
I'd also like to say that I got this idea from listening to Staind's "Zoë Jane" At first, it was meant to be a story about Rin and Sesshy's relationship (father/daughter), but I thought, why not give Rin a new mommy right? MAYBE! Maybe new mommy, we don't know what Saxon's going to do yet, now do we? She's pretty pissed at Sesshy right now; don't really think she would be with him, no matter how much of a cutie Rin is!
OK, I KNOW I said I wanted at least 15 reviews, but, I really wanted to get this up since it was already done, and espcially to the ONE PERSON who reviewed-Littlemissred95-Thank you SO MUCH, for being my first ever reviewer and not giving me a flame (my first fanfic), so heres to you!
Chapter 2: What Now?
Saxon stared into the eyes of her attacker, trying to loosen his grip on her airway. Her efforts proved futile, as he didn't even react to her hits and kicks. He just glared at her with his cold amber eyes, his soulless amber eyes. She tried to scream but the sound was caught in her throat by the ever-pressing hand.
"Sesshomaru-sama, please, stop! She didn't do anything my lord!" The little girl was at his feet now, pulling on his pant leg.
He didn't even look at her when he answered in his chilling voice. "Be silent, Rin." The girl lowered her head to the ground and mumbled, "Yes, Lord Sesshomaru." She let go of his leg, and went to stand by the odd toad creature.
The thing was mean! He started shouting at her, yelling at her, "You stupid ningen! How dare you speak to Sesshomaru-sama, you ungrateful- ahhhhhhh!" The giant, two-headed horse thing, had calmly walked over and sat on him. Rin was staring at him curiously. "What are you doing, Lord Jaken?" she asked innocently. Jaken, or whatever his name was, just continued to flay about, fretting to the two headed creature to get off him.
"Jaken. Stop it. You're annoying me." The little toad opened his mouth in shock, before stuttering, "Yes, milord." Again, he kept his eyes on her.
What was she going to do? He wouldn't let go of her, and it was getting hard to breath. She put her hands over his, and try as she might, she couldn't pry them off. She thought she could try and scratch him off, but then she realized that she had no nails to scratch him with. 'The one time in my life that long nails could have been useful.' But then again, how was she to know that some weird guy with fairytale creatures for companions would soon attack her?
OK, teenage pressures she could handle, but this was ridiculous!
'I won't give up,' she thought, and put her hands on his once more. Drawing every ounce of strength she possessed, she tried once again to make him let go. Little by little she felt his hands lift. Not much, but they definitely moved. She kept trying, sweating with effort, to pry him off, until she finally got his hands loose enough to were she could talk, roughly anyway.
"Let…go…why…do you…want to…hurt me?" If she could she would have been panting, but his hands were still too tight. She carefully watched his face for any type of reaction, hoping to at least see some sign that he even recognized that she spoke. And, once again, she found none. 'Alright, now he's just ticking me off.' If she hadn't been so scared she might have yelled at him.
'What now?'(A/N: Yay, I used the title of the chapter!) Saxon was beginning to get dizzy, and her vision was starting to blur. Lack of oxygen to her brain was starting to affect her.
Her thoughts were racing, and she was beginning to panic. 'Is this really how I'm going to die? In some strange place where I have no idea where I am, murdered by some guy I don't even know? I want to live! I want to graduate, go to college, and live my life! I don't want to die now!' In a last desperate effort to save herself, she thrust her leg up, and kicked him right in the groin, putting all of her survival instincts into her kick.
She watched in satisfaction, as his eyes widened and his mouth gaped slightly. His grip loosened just enough so that she could get out of it, and she dropped to the ground, clutching her hands to her throat while her depraved lungs gasped for air. She felt the rush of blood to her head, and she coughed several times, trying to make up for lost oxygen. 'Oh, that was close!' She rubbed her sore neck, trying to
Then, regaining a little of her strength, she stood up on wobbly legs. She felt a rush to her head, but brushed it aside, though she held her forehead in her hand. Steeling herself for what was to come, she stood up as straight as she was able, and looked the disturbing man in the eye. 'Those soulless eyes…they're almost…beautiful-wait, WHAT! No they're not!' Mentally shaking her head, she glared daggers at him.
"What is your problem? You didn't even give me a chance to speak before you tried to kill me? What's wrong with you?"
She gestured to Rin and Jaken. "And why are you so mean to them? Especially the little girl, all she did was ask you a question, and you yelled at her! The toad-thing…OK, you can hate him, he creeps me out, but that was still mean!"
'Man, I'm on a roll here,' she thought, and continued her rant. "Yeah, and where the hell are we? I don't even know how I got here, much less why I'm, 'trespassing on your lands'. Geez, buddy, get a hold of yourself." She walked up to him, and pointed a finger into his chest, drawing herself up to her full, 5'3 height, whereas he towered over her by at least a foot.
Nonetheless, she pushed her luck, "What makes you so great that I should be afraid of you, huh? You know something dude you piss me off. You don't show any remorse whatsoever about what you did to me, and you can't even hear me, can you?" She put her hands on her hips, and glared at him again, as he was now not even looking at her. He was staring into the forest over her head, occasionally…sniffing? Why was he sniffing?
She jumped up and down in front of him, trying to get his attention. "What are you looking at? Why are you sniffing?" When that failed, she waved her hand in front of his face. "Hellooooooo! Anybody, home?" Still he looked over her head.
Saxon heaved a heavy sigh. What was up with this guy? She felt a tug on her jeans, and looked down to find the little girl at her hip.
"Who are you?" she asked curiously.
Saxon smiled. "Well, I'm Saxon. And who might you be?" She spoke in a normal voice. She hated it when people talked to kids like they were idiots. She had hated it in her later childhood, and she suspected this child was no different. The girl looked smart enough-why treat her like she's stupid?
It had annoyed the hell out of her when her stepmother, Myra, had talked to her half-sister like that when she was a baby. The poor kid grew up saying, "sockies", and "waters", and things like that, and everything, even names, became plural. Once, she had even told her to go get her shoes, and Willow had corrected her. "No, sissy, my shoesies. Say it right." She was seven at the time. That had been a little strange.
Coming out of her temporary flashback, she again directed her attention to the little girl. "I'm Rin. And over there is Ah-Un." She pointed to the two-headed horse/dragon creature. Then she turned to the toad. "And that's Lord Jaken. He's standing next to Sesshomaru-sama."
Saxon paused. "Rin, is Sesshomaru-sama the tall man with white hair?"
Rin smiled, delighted that someone recognized her master. "Yes! Lord Sesshomaru is very nice to Rin. He is my friend. One day, Rin was hurt very badly…" And the little girl proceeded to tell Saxon about how she found Sesshomaru hurt in the forest and how he had saved her in return for helping him.
"…And even Jaken-sama sometimes plays with me, but most of the time Ah-Un and Rin play together, (gasp)."
Rin stopped and stared wide-eyed at something behind Saxon. She turned around, and saw a strange group of people coming out of the forest. One was another silver-haired man dressed in red with…dog-ears? attached to the top of his head. He carried an old sword at his hip.
Standing next to him was a girl with black hair in a green and white school uniform, and she had a bow and arrow strapped to her back. 'Oh, so there are people like me here?' Saxon made a mental note to talk to the girl about it.
Behind them stood two others. One was a tall man dressed in purple Buddhist monk robes carrying a staff, with an odd rosary-sealed-brace on his left hand. (A/N: yes, all you people who have only watched the show, it is his LEFT hand, because that's how it is in the manga.) Standing next to him was a woman dressed in armor, with long black hair bound on top of her head on a ponytail, and a boomerang over her shoulder. At least, it looked like a boomerang.
A large cat with flames licking at its feet and two tails was to their side, while a tiny child rode its back. He had fluffy brown hair, tucked up in a ponytail, and a fuzz ball cream tail sticking out of his clothes.
Who were all these people? All of these new creatures she had never seen before were starting to creep her out.
She turned to ask Sesshomaru who these people were, but stopped. If it was even possible, he looked even angrier than he had a moment ago, and he was glaring at one member of the group in particular. He seemed to be mad at the guy in the red.
'I wonder why he's so upset at that one guy. Do they know each other?' She could only wonder, as she saw that the other man was glaring as well.
