The Mutt
Chapter 21
As Sesshomaru flew on his cloud ahead of Anna and Kagome he began to wonder about the mutt.
'This girl. She was trouble when smaller but now...'
He glanced over at Kagome . She was staring out into space. Why?
He could see the blood from her elbow staining her kimono sleeve. Laying next to her was the clever Anna...who was sleeping. Actually knocked out. Cold.
She must have had a long day. Kagome looked over at the little neko child she call hers. She looked so precious to Kagome. She began stroking her back lovingly.
Sesshomaru was no fool. He could see straight through Kagome's rough exterior and right into her soft interior.
'It seems that I must break this mutt.' He thought as they entered the Western air. He looked back up at her. Kagome saw him and turned her head away. He narrowed his eyes. 'Shame she thinks she can defeat me.'
When arrived at the palace. Sesshomaru gave Kagome a suspicioul look and went about his business. She didn't care if he was angry with her. She had business of her own to do. Anna went to go find Rin and Tengi and Kagome headed straight for her room.
"Well it coulda gone worse." Tengi said trying to cheer Kagome up.
"Oh and how?" she said angrily. "Look what he did to my arm." she held out her elbow to show him the deep puncture in it.
"Eww." he flinched
Kagome went to her balcony and put her fingers together.( like when people do the isty bitsy spider game)
The she seperated them and yellow poison string came thorugh. She took the tip and rounded her hand over it. It became a neddle and thread made out of her poison whip.
"Do ya havta do dat in public?" Tengi said laying on his favorite lounging chair.
"You don't have to look if you dont want to." She replied and stuck the poisen needle in her open wound.
Kagome did it so well and fast. Up, down, up, down the needle went.
"Hey your good at that." tengi siad sitting up to get a better look.
"Iv'e done it before in villages."
"YOU? The girl who is the most bitter woman on this planet?'" Tengi asked confused.
"I don't believe it."he sniffed back
"Its' true." she simply stated.
'Better get back to those damn demon books.' she thought as she finished sewing up her arm. Kagome bit off the string and flicked the needle away. It flung to the wall and melted a small hole into the wood.
"Lets go" she told him.
Later on
"Tengi I don't understand this at all. Demon language is the hardest to leard." Kagome complained. She had one of the demon illusion books in her lap. It was so hard to comprehend. Its been at least an hour when...
knock, knock!
"Come in." Tengi yelled closing his book.
"Why yell Tengi? There are demons all around this castle."
"What if they were deaf?"
"Then they couldn't here at all", Kagome argued with him. "Oh, shut up."
"Come in." she said fairly toned.
"Sumimasen Kagome." Casemi entered
"No need. What is it Casemi?" Kagome answered well manered-even to servants.
Tengi was either drooling or trying to act normal with his charmed smile.
Casemi aslo took a liking to Tengi but couldn't understand why he had three tails.
"Oh, umm, your father and mother have come back from their trip Kagome." she said with a sweet smile."
"Ah, outo. He can help me." Kagome closed her book and beegan for the door.
"But Sesshomaru said-"
"I don't care what he said. I need help. He's not my boss" Casemi and tengi exchanged galres.
"Don't do anything studip whild I'm gone." she said to Tengi
"Make sure he doesn't do anything stupid." She whispered to Casemi. She laughed under her hand.
"Hey!." Tengi exclaimed.
"Anna your lucky" Rin said out of now-where. A gaurd of the palace was watching the two children nicely. By orders of Lord Sesshomaru. Rin must be watched
"How so?" Anna asked.
"Well, all the demon servants here are saying you have great power." She gestured lifting her hands in the air.
"Then all the servants are right. Oh." she spotted some sap on a tree for chewing.
"They are?" Wow. I wanna become a demon too." Rin said exitedly.
"Rin you can't just become a demon. You havta be born like dat. And besides, people also say I'm dangerous. So, I don't think you wanna be like me." Anna said a bit sadden.
"But I dont think your dangerous Anna."Rin said.
"Thanks." Anna smiled to her and tryed to reach the sap on the tree. but it was too far up. She personally didn't like to climb trees.
"Oh look here comes General Eyoto." Rin said.
"Good evening ladies." Eyoto said coming up to them as if he were an angel rather than a demon.
The guard watched him thouroughly.
"Advert your eyes solidier!" Eyoto snapped at the guard. He immediatley turned his neck but peeked through his eyes.
"Konichi-wa General Eyoto."Rin bowed and he nodded
"Little Rin I presume." he stated.
"Hai." she beamed up at him.
"What brings you out here child?"
"Me and Anna are playing General. Anna come say hi to General Eyoto." she urged. Anna was still haveing some problems reaching the chewable sap from the tree.
Once she turned around you could see Anna's eyes widen and jaw drop at the sight of Eyoto. Pure terror was upon her features and she backed up towards the tree.Her lip began to lightly tremble.Then Anna snapped. Then her fears got the best of her. She screamed.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"
Rin covered her ears and the guard from before ran to comfort Rin. Eyoto recognized this neko and raised a hand to silence her when...
'Come on. Where is outo? Thank Kami he's bac-'
"Where are you headed to mutt?" came the cold, dry vioce of Sesshomaru from behind her.
"Back to calling names I see." she acted smart
"Hold your tougue!" he barked back at her
She turend her head away.
"What is that your hiding behind your back?"
"Nothing." she hide the book further and backed up against the wall.
"Do not lie to me Kagome. Many have paid with their lives fromlying to me."she saw the gleam in his eyes. But then noticed the creeping hand going behind her.
"Ahhh...I didn't..lie." she said backing up some more."I am headed on my way to see my father and there is nothing I am hiding."
By then his claws were ready to sharpen themselves on her when...
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"
At that Kagome then dropped the book and ran straight to the back court.
Sesshomaru followed her. She ran down the steps and nearly knocked down a servant. Sesshomaru saw Tengi come from her chambers along with Casemi.
Anna nearly stirred up the whole castle. All four floors of it.
When Kagome finnaly reached the back court it appeared that Eyoto was about to back hand Anna until Kagome flashed out her whip with a
CRAAACK!
Anna became silence and Eyoto was stopped with a burn on his right wrist.
"WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOUR DOING?" Kagome yelled and ran over to the now weeping Anna.
"If you touched her-"
"I did nothing of the sort-"
"I don't believe you."
Rin and the guard came from behind the maple tree. "What is the meaning of this choas in my court yard?" Sesshomaru asked scanning the area. Kagome was holding Anna who wouldn't stop crying. Eyoto was holding his burnt wrist and Rin was holding the hands of a guard.
"Milord, the neko child just began to go ill." the guard spoke up.
"Ill?" Sesshomaru never took his eyes of Kagome and Anna.
"Hai milord. She just began screaming at the sight of General Eyoto sire."
"Alright then. your dismissed." The guard bowed and returned to his normal post.
Kagome picked Anna up and carried her to the castle after giving Eyoto a death galre."
"You wouldn't happen to know why she was upset, would you, Eyoto?"
"Not a clue, my lord." he replied.
Sesshomaru knew he was lying but thought of leaving further questioning and answering to Kagome.
"Anna please tell me what happened."
Anna was now laying on the futon inside her and Rin's room. She wasn't talking at all. She replied by burying her face in her pillow, letting the tears flow quietly.
"Common ya little devil. Just talk to us please." Tengi begged with sympathy (Little devil is her nickname. he's not being mean)
"What got her so upset anyhow?" Tengi asked Kagome.
"Idon't know. Eyoto was the last person she saw when-"
"Eyoto?" Tengi cut off
"Yeah, he's right outside." Kagome kneeled down infront of Anna.
Tengi walked over to Anna's window and saw Eyoto. He recognized him. Those black eyes, his gray hair, and those eye marks.
Suprisingly, Tengi was so frightened at the face of the spirit demon that he backed away from the window and tripped over a chair clumsily.
"Tengi!" Kagome called. then she furrowed her eyes in confusion. The same look Anna gave before shrieking in terror was now on Tengi's face.
"Are you alright?" she said lowly.
"K-Kagome, t-th-that's the demon who killed out parents."
