Chapter 5
Aki and Zala walked along the path. For every 20 steps they took, Aki snapped a picture of the lake. It looked beautiful with the candles being reflected by the lake like a gigantic floating and shifting mirror.
"Why do they do that?" Aki asked, referring to the floating candles.
"It is so we can see and also for decorative purposes." Zala informed her.
"Oh, and who's Sesshy talking with?" Aki asked again.
"I can not tell you." Zala said. Aki nodded and was gone. " 'Ey! Come back 'ere!" Zala yelled, Aki was already far ahead of Zala. When Aki got close enough she noticed that the people with Sesshoumaru were official looking.
"Time to interrupt!" Aki said to herself mischieviously. She walked over and jumped on Sesshoumaru's shoulders. "Hello! Sorry to interrupt but I don't think Sesshy here told me everything that's going on here." Aki said. The two other people looked surprised to see Aki.
"Aki!" Sesshoumaru growled warningly. She leaned her head down so she was level with him.
"Yeah?" she asked.
"Come with me." Sesshoumaru grabbed her and flipped her onto the ground. "Excuse us." Sesshoumaru said as he litterally dragged her away.
"Hey!" Aki growled. "I can walk just fine thank you!" Sesshoumaru stopped walking and let Aki get up. She brushed off the dirt as best she could, but she couldn't get it all off, so Sesshoumaru helped her. His hand accidentally brushed her butt causing Aki to blush but not to show it. He pulled away and she turned around. "Now I know there's something you're not telling me! So tell me right now!"
"A war is coming and we're doing all we can to prepare for it. I'm trying to make alliances but you're not helping." Sesshoumaru said.
"WHAT THE FUCK? WE'RE GOING TO FUCKING WAR AND YOU DIDN'T TELL ME?" Aki yelled, Sesshoumaru flinched.
"Quiet! Yes, I didn't know you were still up, and I just recently found out myself." Sesshoumaru said. Aki was still glaring at him.
"I may not be of noble blood but I know tactics for the lowly, I can be of help." She said slightly tweeked, and while we say slightly, her eyes were burning with contempt. Zala had just caught up.
"Aki!" Zala scolded.
"Shut up, Zala." she said causing Zala to be taken aback.
"I'm not letting you fight, Zala go talk to the ambassadors." Sesshoumaru said, Zala walked over. "It's too dangerous." he said.
"Shut up, Sesshoumaru, I don't care what you say, I'm fighting. " Aki turned around and walked away. Sesshoumaru was shocked that she called him 'Sesshoumaru' instead of 'Sesshy' or 'Fluffy'.
"Aki." Sesshoumaru said. She turned around and flipped him off.
"Fuck off." she growled. He sighed.
"Don't make me, make you, get back here." he said. She ignored him. He formed his whip and dragged her back, litterally, damn she's gonna seriously be dirty by the end of tonight. She was face-to-face with him by now. He had made sure that there was no poison on his whip though, to avoid being killed later on. "You can fight." he said.
"YES! Uh...one problem, I don't have a weapon." she said. Sesshoumaru rolled his eyes.
"After I'm done with them we'll find you one." Sesshoumaru said. Aki smiled and waited by the lake, she went back to snapping pictures. Zala watched over her, and they waited for Sesshoumaru to be done.
"Gah! I'm gonna die of bordem!" Aki said. "Wanna go swimming?" Aki asked.
"No." Zala replied. Aki handed her the camera and the film
"Watch these for me then, will you?" Aki asked. Zala nodded. Aki dove in and swam around. "Ack! It's cold!" Aki said. Zala had to bite her tongue to keep from laughing. Aki took a deep breath and dove under. She tried to swim to the bottom of the lake but she was so out of practice she only got half way before she had to come back up. Aki swam over to the side and got out, she shook all the water off of her body. Zala moved away before she had time to get her wet. Sesshoumaru had noticed Aki come out of the lake and start shaking all the excess water off, he didn't notice but he was looking at her butt. Gah! What am I doing! Sesshoumaru asked himself. He and the ambassadors walked back and Sesshoumaru looked at Aki.
"Swimming?" He asked.
"Uh..yeah." she answered. Sesshoumaru picked her back up and threw her back into the lake, there was a splash and the candles near her moved away. She came back up. "You're gonna pay for that!" Aki growled. Zala lead the ambassadors away and Sesshoumaru jumped in after Aki. Aki saw his hair fan out behind him and she thought he looked like a silver fish. He came up right in front of her. "Fish boy!" she said as Sesshoumaru dunked her. He let go and she swam away under the water.
"Come back here!" Sesshoumaru yelled in a mock annyoed voice.
"Hell no!" she said when she surfaced. She wasn't far from the shore so she got out and ran away. Sesshoumaru swam out and followed her. Aki wasn't that far ahead. She saw her bedroom window. If I can make that I can be safe...for a little while at least. Aki thought. Suddenly Sesshoumaru grabbed her. "Hey! I was going to my room to change out of these wet clothes!" Aki said. Sesshoumaru noticed that her clothes clung to her figure perfectly showing everyone of her curves that he hadn't noticed before, in the modern day, until now.
"Good, you'll catch a cold if you don't and with the big fight you put up earlier about fighting, we wouldn't want that." Sesshoumaru said. Aki glared at him. He let her go and she jumped in her bedroom window. She closed the shutters so she could get changed. Sesshoumaru walked back to his room and changed out of his clothes. He waited a while before going to Aki's room. Just to make sure she was done changing. Before he knocked, Aki opened the door.
"Come in. You still have to get me a weapon." Aki said. Sesshoumaru nodded.
"Follow me." Sesshoumaru said. Aki nodded and followed him silently. Zala was watching them, she had caught Sesshoumaru looking at Aki's butt while she was shaking the water off but had remained silent since. Sess'oumaru, w'at 'ave you gotten yourself into wit' t'is one? Zala thought to herself. She left Aki's camera and film outside of her door.
"So how'd the meeting go with the ambassadors?" she asked.
"I've got to create alliances with Kit's family, and two other people." Sesshoumaru said.
"Still using modern day english?" Aki asked. Sesshoumaru nodded. "Me too." she added. Sesshoumaru lead her to a weapons room. He opened the door. "Dude! How the hell can all these weapons fit into this small room!" Aki said.
"There's more, the other's didn't fit in here." Sesshoumaru said. "This was made when my father ruled here." Sesshoumaru said. Aki nodded. She looked around. She didn't find anything that caught her eye. Then she noticed something glinting at her. She walked over and picked it up, it was a sythe. It was well balanced and she could easily swing it with only one hand if need be.
"Now I feel like the grim reaper...I could get used to this..." Aki said.
"Alright, since you found your weapon you have to train to know how to use it." Sesshoumaru said.
"I'll start with you!" Aki said. Sesshoumaru pushed her out of the weapons room and locked it.
"Outside." Sesshoumaru said. Aki rolled her eyes, she felt like a child that got in trouble for doing something they weren't supposed to. Maybe compared to Sesshoumaru she was.
"Whoa..." Aki said.
"What?" Sesshoumaru asked.
"Something just occured to me...how old are you?" Aki asked.
"750." Sesshoumaru said.
"Holy-! I'm young compared to you!" Aki exclaimed.
"And how old are you?" Sesshoumaru asked.
"It's rude to ask a girl her age!" Aki laughed, "I'm 550," Aki said, "200 years younger," Sesshoumaru nodded and drew Tokijin, "But Kit is younger, by 2 years, she's 498. Kero is only 150." Aki added as she got ready with her sythe, she noticed there was a charm on the back. She looked at it, it was a little white dog with a cresent moon on it's forehead, "Awww," Aki said, "That's so cute," Sesshoumaru took this chance to attack but Aki blocked, she still had her attention on the charm, "You know..this looks like you!"
"It is." Sesshoumaru replied.
"Awww! You were SO cute...what happened!" Aki teased. Sesshoumaru glared at her as she laughed. "Oh c'mon! You know I'm kdding!" Aki said. Sesshoumaru nodded and Aki watched him move, Sesshoumaru used two fingers on one of his hands. His whip! Aki thought realizing the attack quickly. She watched it form and whip at her. She jumped out of the way and struck back with her sythe. He blocked it with his sword and she used her claws to try and hit him. She only got his cheek. "Damn, I only nicked you." Aki said. Sesshoumaru felt the warm blood running down his face, nearly feeling the urge to lick the wound, due to the slight sting it was presenting.
"Not bad, the cut is pretty deep." Sesshoumaru said. Aki nodded. She was watching him with intent eyes. Sesshoumaru thought he saw a flash of blood lust in her eyes. Somewhere deep inside her that part was laying dorment. Aki figured that he wasn't going to attack so she took the chance. Sesshoumaru and Aki engaged in a batlle each exchanging blows and blocking them. Whip there, whip here, claws there, claws here, sword there, sword here, sythe there, and sythe here. It was safe to say by the time they were done Aki had learned how to use her sythe and was a master at it. She yawned.
"This is tiring." Aki said. "I'm going to bed. Later, Fluffy." Aki walked back to the castle and followed her own scent back to her room. She put her sythe behind the door and layed down on her bed, she had scratches on her arms from getting nicked by Sesshoumaru's whip and sword. "Ow..." she pulled up her sleeve and looked at the damage, it wasn't that bad, but the cuts were numerous and in the process of healing. Aki closed her eyes and almost instantly fell asleep.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ Next Morning
Aki woke up to the sound of a bell. Great, a stupid alarm clock. Aki thought. She was still half-asleep. She turned her head to the window and saw that it was still dark outside. There was a knock on her door. Jeez, who'd becoming this early to see me? Aki ask herself, reluctantly she got out of bed and walked over to the door, opening it a crack.
"What?" she asked.
"Morning, Aki!" Rin said. Aki sighed and opened the door wider. Rin's smiling face looked up to Aki's tired one.
"Yeah? Make it quick, I'm tired and I want to go back to sleep." Aki said. Rin laughed.
"You can't go back to sleep, Sesshoumaru-sama asked me, to ask you, if you wanted to go with him to see his lands." Rin said. Aki was leaning aganst the door now.
"Sure why not? You can come in you know." Aki said. Rin nodded and walked in. Aki looked at the many doors leading out of her room. "Which one's the bath?" Aki asked herself quietly. She sniffed and walked to the one that had the smell of water. "I'm gonna take a quick bath-shower, whatever you wanna call it." Aki said. Rin nodded and looked around Aki's room. She opened the door and walked in. There was a hot spring. "Whoa. This is cool." she said. Aki took off her clothes and got in. Rin was still looking around Aki's room, she had never seen this room before. There was a knock and Rin walked over to it and answered it.
"Hello!" Rin said brightly. "Sesshoumaru-sama, Aki said yes." Rin said. Sesshoumaru nodded and walked in.
"Where is she?" Sesshoumaru asked.
"She went in one of the doors. I don't know which one though." Rin said. Sesshoumaru nodded. Rin went back to exploring Aki's room and Sesshoumaru sat down on her bed. Aki got out of the water after she had made sure she had gotten all the dirt off and wrapped herself up in a towel. She had forgetten to grab her clothes.
"Damn, why am I so stupid?" Aki asked herself as she opened the door. She saw Sesshoumaru on her bed. "Ahh! What are you doing in here!" Aki practically yelled.
"Waiting for you." Sesshoumaru said.
"Well get out!" she growled. "So I can get dressed!" Rin was laughing. "You two!" Aki growled at Rin. Rin 'eep'd and ran away behind Sesshoumaru.
"Don't yell, you'll wake the dead." Sesshoumaru said.
"I said get out!" she growled again. Suddenly something connected with Sesshoumaru's head. He looked at what she threw, it was a book. Aki had another one in her hand. He ran over and grabbed her hand before she had time to throw it again.
"Don't throw things." Sesshoumaru said coldly.
"Then leave when I tell you to." Aki said in the same tone. Aki couldn't fight back because she was using her other hand to hold her towel up.
"Rin go find Zala." Sesshoumaru said. Rin nodded and ran to the door as fast as she could. Sesshoumaru and Aki were locked in a 'staring' contset. Her red orbs glaring into his amber orbs. Aki's hair was hanging over her eyes, unintentionally making her look slightly attractive...well, more than usual, it was awhile before either of them looked away. Sesshoumaru let go of her hand finally, with the slightest hint of pink on his cheeks and walked to the door. "I'll be waiting outside." Sesshoumaru said. Aki was still glaring at him but she nodded. Jerk. Aki thought. She found her clothes and out them on. She slid on her armor and walked to her door and opened it to find Sesshoumaru was no where to be seen. Aki walked to the front gate and saw Sesshoumaru waiting for her.
"Ready." She said dully. A cloud type thing appeared at Sesshoumaru's feet.
"Get on." Sesshoumaru said. Aki stepped on it. She knew Sesshoumaru wouldn't let her fall. As she got on, it flew up into the air.
"Whoa...you do this everyday!" Aki asked.
"No, just when I go on my rounds." Sesshoumaru said. "Which is once a week."
"Then why are we going today?" Aki asked.
"To see Kit. Some how she's involved in all this. Most likely in the middle." Sesshoumaru said.
"Alright, how long until we get there?" Aki asked.
"It'll be a while." Sesshoumaru said.
"Alright then," Aki yawned and stopped mid-sentence. "I'm taking a nap then, I'll never get used to waking up early." Aki leaned against Sesshoumaru's legs, letting her own legs dangle over the edge of the cloud and closed her eyes. She was alseep in no time. After 2 hours Kit's home came into view. Sesshoumaru woke Aki. "Go away." she muttered in her sleep. She was going back to how she slept when she lived in the fuedal era, light and alert to danger.
"Aki." Sesshoumaru said. Aki opened her eyes. "Look." Sesshoumaru pointed out in front of him.
"That's where Kit lives?" Aki asked. "It doesn't look as big as yours though." Aki said.
"It's not. But their family sure as hell is bigger." he said dully. They started their decent and soon enough Aki jumped off. Sesshoumaru landed and he walked to the door. The guards let him and Aki in. Lady Kala was walking by.
"Oh! Lord Sesshoumaru! And...who are you?" she asked Aki.
"This is Aki." Sesshoumaru said. Aki waved.
"You're Kit's mom, right?" Aki asked. She nodded.
"Lord Sesshoumaru, is she to be your lady?" Kala asked. Aki growled while Sesshoumaru grabbed her armor to make sure she didn't kill Kit's mom.
"No, we're just friends." Sesshoumaru said. Aki's red eyes were burning brightly. "We're here to talk to Kit." he added.
"Yeah, seriously." Aki growled. Sesshoumaru let go and Aki stood still. I wish I had my sythe! Aki thought.
"Oh, I was just going to see her." Lady Kala said.
"Wait a sec, where's Kouga?" Aki asked.
"Oh! He is in the inner garden, I can have one my my sons take you there if you would like."
"Sure." Aki said.
"Mommy!" someone yelled. Kero ran down the stairs to his mother. Aki looked at him. Sesshoumaru was waiting to see Kit. "Aki! Sesshoumaru!" he said. Aki rolled her eyes. "Why are you here?" He asked.
"Because, we can be, have a problem?" Aki asked.
"No!" Kero said quickly.
"Kero, take Aki to Kouga, she wants to see him." Kala said.
"Alright." Kero said. "Come on. I have other things to do you know." Kero said. Aki bopped him on the head. "Hey!"
"Remember who you're talking to whelp." Aki growled. Kero rubbed his head and he led her to Kouga.
"Alright, come this way." Kala said. Sesshoumaru wasn't there. "Huh?" she asked. She shrugged and walked to Kit's room. Aki turned around.
"I thought you were going to see Kit." she said.
"We should go see her together. I doubt Kouga has seen her." Sesshoumaru said. Aki shrugged. Kero was still rubbing his head. She had hit him with her claws by accident. Soon Aki and Sesshoumaru heard water running. They walked into a garden and Kouga was talking to Kit's sisters.
"There you are wolf-boy!" Aki said. Kouga and the girls jumped.
"Aki! Sesshoumaru!" Kouga shouted in surprise.
"I resent that!" All the girls said. Aki looked at them annoyed.
"Good for you." She girls stood up, Aki still towered over them.
"Lord Sesshoumaru, is she to be your lady?" a girl asked. Aki's hair bristled.
"NO! NOW STOP ASKING THAT QUESTION!" Aki growled. The girls ran behind Kouga. Sesshoumaru rolled his eyes.
"What are you two doing here?" Kouga asked.
"Coming to visit." Sesshoumaru said.
"Why...do you have a problem with us wanting to see our friends?" Aki asked. Kouga shook his head no. "Good, boy. Do you know how Kit's doing?"
"No, no one but our mother and father have seen her since last night." Kyli said. Aki looked at the youngest cub.
"And was I asking you?" Aki asked. Kyli shook her head no. "Then shut up." Kyli nodded and shut up.
"It's true, she cancelled the dance last night and went to her room, I haven't see her since." Kouga said.
"Fine, you'll come with us." Sesshoumaru said. Kouga nodded.
"We want to see our sister to!" all the girls yelled. Aki flinched.
"Tell you what if you can beat me in a fight, you can come." Aki said.
"Nevermind!" the girls went back to thier seats and started studying. Aki turned around and walked back the way she came.
"You do know where Kit's room is right?" Kouga asked. Sesshoumaru nodded. "Alright." They walked in silence. Sesshoumaru stopped and knocked on a red oak door with wolf engravings, a moon was in the corner away from the hinges and clouds were also visibly carved into the wood.
"Go away." Kit said from the other side.
"Hey! Is that any way to greet us!" Aki growled.
"Aki?" Kit asked in surprise
"Who else?" Aki asked.
"Kit!" Kouga yelled close to simply barging in...although, he was wary of this option.
"Kouga!" They heard foot steps walking to the door hurriedly, the click of a lock being opened and an annoyed grunt s a smack came from the other side, obvvously the door had something against her for it refused to open for her until she trie dit the third time.
"Hey, you forgot about Fluffy!" Aki laughed. Kit opened the door finally.
"What are you guys doing here?" Kit asked.
"Well for one Sesshy thinks that you're involved in the war, Kouga was getting antsy and I can't see you? I see how it is." Aki said. Kit laughed at her friend's sarcastic twist of humor.
"What! There's a war!" Kouga asked. Aki slapped her hand to her forehead. "I'm kidding!" Kouga said.
"No you're not." Sesshoumaru said. Kouga glared at him.
"Alright, now spill. We want to know everything." Aki said as they all walked into Kit's room.
"Fine, this might take a while so why don't you sit down?" Kit asked. Aki walked over to an arm chair and sat in it. One of her legs was drapped over the side. Kouga sat on Kit's bed and Sesshoumaru sat in another armchair, looking like a piece of wood, "Last night, during the dance, my father recieved a letter from the bird tribe, the tribe we are against in the war. It said that 'if I agreed to marry one of the King's sons he would glady call off this war and no one would get hurt'." Kit explained. Aki had fallen asleep from boredem. It didn't take Kit to long to explain everything. "That's why I've been in my room, thinking about how to make sure that no one has to fight." Kit said.
"Hell, just say you'll marry him, go there and kill them." Aki said. Her eyes were closed but she was still awake. The sound of her voice made Kit jump.
"It's not that simple, Aki. They'll make sure that I have no weapons on me." Kit said.
"There are two things that are weapons that no one can take away from you." Sesshoumaru said.
"Your teeth and claws." Aki finished. Kit mumbled something under her breath that sounded oddly like 'Ever heard of de-clawing?'
"They'll probally tie her up, though, and make her go through with the whole thing." Kouga interjected. Aki shrugged her eyes were still closed. A loud bell sounded. Aki opened her eyes.
"What the hell! I was sleeping!" Aki growled. Kit, Kouga, and Sesshoumaru looked at her like she was an alien life form. "What?" she asked.
"You were?" Kouga asked.
"Yeah. Though when people are talking and I'm sleeping sometimes I'll still answer." Aki said. Kraitan burst in the door.
"The birds are coming, prepare yourselves!" Sesshoumaru, Aki, and Kouga ran out the door. Aki stopped.
"Kit, you go hide, you're the only one they want. If they can't find you then we'll be fine." Kit nodded her understanding as Aki ran the rest of the way out the door and outside. Kouga was fighting off birds. Sesshoumaru ran over to Aki and dragged her inside. "Hey!" she growled.
"I have to go back to my lands." Sesshoumaru said.
"Then go! Zala wont be able to hold them off for long." Sesshoumaru grabbed Aki and kissed her. She went stiff as a board. He stopped kissing her and ran off. Kit walked out of her room and saw Aki standing there. Kouga had come in to see why Sesshoumaru had ran away. Kit walked over to Aki and waved her hand in front of Aki's face.
"Aki? Aki! AKI!" Kit yelled, Kouga was standing behind Kit. Suddenly Aki's fist connected with Kit's face. "Ow...that hurt." Kit collasped.
"That was my ear." Aki growled. Kit wasn't even paying attention.
"I think that's a record, Aki." Kouga said.
"Look at the pretty puppies." Kit randomly mumbled dizzily.
"Really, and for what?" she asked, both were ignoring Kit
"Yes, and for getting Kit to shut up the quickest." Kouga laughed. "So why did Sesshoumaru run?"
"He had to go to his lands." Aki said. Kit had recovered by then.
"And why were you standing as stiff as a board?" she asked. Aki punched her again.
"Shut up, you're giving me a headache." Aki growled. She walked outside and looked around, Sesshoumaru was gone and Kit's brothers were fighting off the birds. Her father was also fighting but not having much luck. Aki walked over. "Need a little help?" she asked. Kraitan nodded while Aki jumped up and ran her hand through the bird. "They're pathetic!" Aki said.
"Maybe for you they are. Where's Kit?" Kraitan asked.
"Inside." Aki said. Kraitan ran inside. Kouga was there with her. She was still knocked out of her senses.
"What happened?" he asked.
"Well first Kit yelled in Aki's ear and Aki punched her, then Kit asked Aki a question and Aki punched her again and said that she was giving her a headache." Kouga answered.
"And who's Aki?" Kraitan asked.
"The girl with red eyes and is wearing an outfit like Sesshoumaru's." Kouga said.
"Oh! Take Kit into the innner garden, make sure no one gets near her. I'll get Aki to guard her." Kraitan said. Kouga nodded and carried the unconcious Kit bridal style to the inner garden. Kraitan looked around for Aki, she was on one of the bird's back steering it into other birds and hopping onto another one's back and doing the same. "Aki!" he yelled, Aki looked down. "Come down here! I have something I need you to do!" Aki ran her hand through the bird and jumped down.
"Yeah?" She asked.
"I need you to guard the doors and make sure no birds get through." he said.
"Fine." Aki walked to the doors and leaned against them. Kero was thrown at Aki, she caught him upside down and put him down right side up.
"Thanks." he said.
"Whatever, whelp." Aki answered as he tried to run back into battle. She grabbed his collar before he could get more than 2 feet away. "Where do you think you're going?" Aki asked.
"To fight! It's my duty to keep my sister safe!" Kero said.
"You're not fit to fight." Aki said.
"Yes I am!" Kero growled. Aki bent down and looked him in the eyes.
"How many fingers and I holding up?" Aki asked. Kero looked at her fingers, there was blood on them.
"Four." he said.
"Wrong, there were two." Aki said. She picked him up and threw him inside. "If I find you out here again I'm going to kick your ass." Aki growled. Kero glared at her. "Sit." Aki ordered, pointing to the ground with her index finger. Kero sat down grumbling and Aki shut the door. She was waiting for action to come her way but it never did. Aki looked around, she didn't see anything moving and nothing coming from the sky, she opened the door and walked to the inner garden. Kit was awake and her sisters were looking warrily at Aki.
"Is it over?" Kouga asked.
"For now it is, I'm going back to the Western Lands, you know where to find me." Aki said. She turned to the girls. "I didn't see you fighting, everyone is supposed to protect the heir to the throne. And their family." Aki said.
"We don't, we hate fighting." Kyli said. "And we can't stand the sight of blood." Aki held out her hands, they were blood stained. All three grils fainted.
"Pathetic!" Aki growled, she walked away and went outside. Kraitan came up to her.
"I want to thank you." He said.
"Why?" she asked.
"Because, you helped." Kraitan said.
"Fine. Well I'm leaving." Aki walked away. After she was far enough away she started running to get to Sesshoumaru. I swear, I'm gonna kill him! she thought. It didn't take her too long to get to Sesshoumaru's palace. She opened the door. Jaken ran by and Aki stuck her foot out and tripped him.
"Ahhh! It's you!" Jaken said.
"Where's Sesshoumaru?" Aki growled.
"Why should I tell you?" Jaken asked bravely. The next thing Jaken knew was that he was hanging upside down from the celiing by a rope.
"Because if you don't I'll sharpen my claws on you." she growled.
"He's in his chambers." Jaken squeeked. Aki nodded and cut him down, he landed on his head. "Ow..." Jaken mumbled. She walked to Sesshoumaru's quarters and knocked on the door. Sesshoumaru opened it.
"Yes?" he asked. Aki pushed her hands into his chest, shoving him into his room and then shut the door.
"Why the hell did you kiss me!" Aki demanded in a peeved voice.
"I was hoping that you'd be surprised enough to stand stiff until the battle was over." Sesshoumaru said. "Obviously it didn't work." he said dully. Aki punched him in the arm.
"If you ever do that again I swear I'll kill you!" Aki growled.
"What you didn't like it?" Sesshoumaru asked teasingly. Akii glared at him. She turned around and walked to her room. Grrrrr! If he ever does that again I'm gonna kill him! Aki looked at her hands she could still smell the blood.
"God, this reeks." Aki said. She walked into the hot springs room and washed her hands. Zala knocked on Aki's door. "Come in!" Aki called, Zala opened the door and walked in.
"Aki?" she asked.
"In here!" Zala followed Aki's voice.
"I saw you walking down t'e 'all and I wanted to know w'at was wrong." Zala said.
"Nothing. Just a little mad." Aki said.
"Alright t'en, Rin wants you to come play out in t'e gardens."
"Tell her not right now, I have too much on my mind." Aki said. Zala nodded and walked back to the door.
"Does it 'ave somet'ing to do wit' Lord Sess'oumaru?" Zala asked,
"Leave." Aki growled. Zala laughed and left. Aki fell back into the hot water. She still had her clothes on but she didn't care. Her armor was pulling her down so she took it off, leaving it on the floor.
