"What could you have done so bad to talk like that?" asked Sesshoumaru.
"Nothing," answered Ayame, "It's none of your business."
She stalked off with out another word. Sesshoumaru watched her a bit confused. What had he said? What did he do? He wanted to scream after her like hell it was his business. He sighed and followed her a stoic look on his face.
Ayame knelt on the ground and sniffed. She didn't like the smell.
"Something wrong?" asked Sesshoumaru.
"There's a snake nearby…" she replied.
"Are you afraid of them?" asked Sesshoumaru.
"No…it's just this one isn't one you want to meet on a dark night!" replied Ayame, "Jump into a tree! Here she comes!"
They both jumped into trees as a giant snake slammed its huge head in the area they had once been standing.
"That's one big snake…" said Sesshoumaru.
"I didn't even know it was still alive," said Ayame.
"You knew about this thing?" asked Sesshoumaru.
"I know about almost every thing on this mountain," said Ayame.
"And you didn't tell me about the snake?" asked Sesshoumaru.
"It was dead last time I was here!" she shouted in reply as the snake attacked them separating them.
Sesshoumaru landed in a tree and Ayame on a rock. The snake reared his head and eyed Ayame with hatred.
"Ayame stay still…" he said calmly, "Wait for it to attack."
Ayame had no problem with staying still. She was scared stiff. She was staring eye to eye with a creature that hated her more than any creature she knew of.
The snake hissed and moved in to attack and Sesshoumaru saw that Ayame wasn't about to move and jumped grabbing Ayame and moving out the way quickly.
"What the hell is wrong with you?" he asked angrily.
Ayame said nothing, but stood there frozen with fear.
"Damn it…she's out of it…" he said angrily.
The snake finally got sense and realized it had nothing in its mouth. It turned to Sesshoumaru and hissed.
"Come on ugly…" he said with a smile.
The snake seemed to howl as it attacked Sesshoumaru. Sesshoumaru stood still and grabbed it by the jaw and foot. He planted the bottom of the snake's jaw and ripped the top half of it ripping the snake in half. He turned as blood and guts splattered on him and Ayame seemed to snap out of it ready to fight.
"Where is he?" she asked.
"Dead…" answered Sesshoumaru, "What the hell happened to you?"
"What do you mean?" asked Ayame.
"You didn't do anything!" answered Sesshoumaru, "you're worthless!"
"Worthless? I'm worthless? I was most likely hypnotized! Thanks Sesshoumaru! Since I'm so worthless we can head right back to my tribe!" said Ayame.
"What?" he asked.
"I'm not helping you any longer!" she answered and walked off.
