Chapter 16: Rin's Rescue
Taka and Kagome walked back through the forest towards the village. Taka turned her head.
"Did you hear that?" she asked.
"Nani?" asked Kagome.
"I thought I heard a scream," Taka moved her ears to listen.
Kagome listened also. They both heard a faint scream.
"Rin!" exclaimed Kagome.
"You know who that is?"
"Hai, she's a little girl who stays with Sesshomaru."
Taka twitched her ear.
"Well if she has anything to do with that pathetic youkai I'll have nothing to do with her."
Taka turned to leave.
"You're just like Inuyasha Taka!" exclaimed Kagome.
Taka turned.
"Nani?"
"You don't want anything to do with Sesshomaru."
"Well he tried to kill me... twice!"
"Well can't you help an innocent girl!"
Taka sighed.
"Fine!" she growled.
Taka took off in Rin's direction, leaving Kagome alone to run.
'The sooner this is over the sooner i can leave back to the village,' she thought with a growl.
She came to a clearing where she seen a large white snake youkai about to eat a young girl.
"Sesshomaru-sama!" cried the girl.
'That's her,' thought Taka.
She ran in the snakes direction. She snarled and struck her claws right through the snake. It died with a deadly hiss. Taka just dodged a bite from it before it died. She landed in front of Rin.
"Who are you?" she asked with fright in her voice.
Taka raised an eyebrow at her and walked away. Rin stood and followed Taka. Taka was aware of her but she let her follow. Half way back to where Kagome was she turned to Rin.
"So where's your so called lord!" she growled.
Rin winced.
"He left for a while and left me and Jaken but I wandered off and got attacked," she said softly.
"Some protector you have," Taka turned away and began to walk again.
"Rin!"
Taka looked up to see Sesshomaru coming to attack again. Taka dodged.
"Hey I just saved your shrimp!" exclaimed Taka angrily.
Sesshomaru growled.
"Is this true Rin?" he asked.
Rin nodded.
"Lets go Rin," he turned to walk away.
"Oh my gods! Not even a thank you or anything. I could've let her die you know," Taka turned stubbornly.
Sesshomaru turned and jumped at Taka. He grasped the front of her kimono and lifted her off the kimono. Taka growled.
"Sesshomaru-sama iie!" screamed Rin.
Sesshomaru turned to her.
"Put her down Sesshomaru!" Kagome came panting out of the forest, "He just saved Rin."
Sesshomaru dropped Taka and began to walk away again followed by Rin. Taka rubbed her neck. She growled and raised her hand.
"Taka! Iie!"
Inuyasha came out of the forest.
Taka put her hand down and watched Sesshomaru leave.
"Asshole," she mumbled under her breathe.
"What happened Taka?" asked Inuyasha.
"I saved that little twerp for Sesshomaru and he pays me back by trying to kill me again!" she growled.
Inuyasha laughed.
"Not funny," said Taka with a pout.
Inuyasha snickered.
"You're right Taka let's just go back," Inuyasha began to walk off followed by the two girls.
