Chapter 33

Isamu hissed while on Taka's shoulder again. Kirara growled and stalked around Taka.

"You two behave!" scolded Kagome.

"Kirara stop it he's a friend," said Sango as she picked up the little two-tailed.

"She's just a little angry that there's another cat in her territory," Miroku explained.

Kuragari had his arm around Kagome's should protectively. Taka grinned at Kuragari who winked back. Kirara continued to growl.

"Taka... Isamu doesn't seem to be like Kirara... when he transforms he only looks like a large panther," Kagome looked at the small black cat on Taka's shoulder.

"That was only one of his three other forms," Taka explained, "this small form is the original and there are the other three forms."

"What are the others?" asked Inuyasha.

"You'll see whenever he feels up to changing into them," said Kuragari.

"Hai... Kuragari knew about it before I... and when I first seen how he was in his strongest state I never wanted to see it again..." Taka sighed, "until now! When I didn't want to that's when I acted more human, so yeah now I want to," Taka grinned.

Isamu meowed in agreement.

Inuyasha put his arm around Taka. Isamu growled softly and bit his hand.

"Why you little!" Inuyasha held where Isamu bit him.

Isamu blew out his nose at Inuyasha and rubbed against Taka again.

"Someone's over protective," Taka took the black cat and put it on the ground.

"I'll say," Inuyasha leaned over and kissed Taka's cheek.

Isamu growled again and bit Inuyasha's leg this time.

"Ow!" Inuyasha cried out.

Kirara jumped off Sango's shoulder but this time she didn't growl. She cautiously stepped forward Isamu, who was currently licking his paw. Kirara sniffed. Isamu looked up. He sniffed also. The two cats circled each other sniffing.

"Mew?" Kirara seemed to ask a question.

"Meow," Isamu answered.

They had their own conversation and everyone stared.

"What do you think they're doing?" Sango asked Miroku.

"I think they're making a truce or something," Miroku replied.

He was right. After awhile the cats batted paws as though shaking hands. Kagome laughed.

"How cute!" she said.

Kuragari smiled. Kagome put her head on his chest. They were now officially a number... all Kuragari needed to do was mark her. But she asked if they could wait awhile. He agreed. So for now they were like Taka and Inuyasha, unmarked for now. Miroku and Sango were a couple now also. Though Miroku still was a hentai, recieving punishment from Sango every time he flirted with other girls, they all knew he would always love Sango. Isamu sniffed and meowed. He turned into his panther form and urged Taka to follow. Taka ran after him and Inuyasha almost tried to follow. Isamu snarled at him.

"Inuyasha, stay here," Taka said, "don't worry I'll be fine with Isamu," Taka waved and bounded after Isamu.

They ran through the forest a bit and Taka heard something.

"Sesshomaru-sama," a small voice cried softly.

Taka perked her ears up and looked around. Isamu sniffed into a bush. A small shriek was heard and a rock flew at Isamu. He stepped back. Taka looked in the bush to see Rin sitting there whimpering.

"Hey! Your that little girl from before!" Taka gasped.

"Huh?" Rin wiped her eyes, "Taka?" she whispered.

"Hai."

"Do you know where Sesshomaru-sama is?" she asked, "he and Jaken disappeared on me and I can't find him."

"Iie... but how did you end up hanging with a jack-ass like him?" asked Taka.

"A wolf youkai with a pony-tail and a short skirt let his wolves attack my old village afer he took a jewel shard from this man and the wolves killed the whole village... Sesshomaru-sama saved me."

"Koga!" gasped Taka.

"H... hai... I think that's his name."

"I knew he was no good," Taka grumbled, "come on," Taka held out her hand, "let's go find the jack-ass."

"What did you call me?" Sesshomaru appeared behind her.

"Eh?" Taka froze.

"Sesshomaru-sama!" Rin squealed happily.

Sesshomaru put a hand around the girl.

"Planning to let your pet eat her?" he growled.

"Nani?" Taka snarled, "It was you who left her behind!"

"Sesshomaru-sama! She was about to take me to find you!" Rin pulled his sleeve.

Isamu growled, offended by what Sesshomaru said.

"Now that you have Rin back I have some business to settle with a wolf," Taka and Isamu began walking away.

Sesshomaru watched Taka walk off and turned.

'For a hanyou she isn't half bad... not like my pathetic brother,' he took Rin to go find Jaken.

xXx Taka xXx

Taka took a whiff of air on the cliff she fell off in earlier days.

"I knew it Isamu," she kneeled by Isamu and looked down at the cabin below, "he's still here."

Isamu nodded.

"That pathetic bastard... it was either this cliff or another I threw him off before."

Isamu made what sounded like a laugh. Taka laughed for a second and looked back down. There stood Koga on the steps of the cabin. Sora walked out after him. He turned and kissed her hand and talked for a minute.

"Oh my what a ladies man," Taka snickered.

Him and Sora started walking through the forest with a grumbling Tsuki walking after them.

"Now's our chance," Taka jumped into the forest and Isamu bounded after him.

Taka leaned against a tree and waited. Koga sniffed the air nearby.

"It's her," he growled.

"Who?" asked Sora.

Taka glanced over her shoulder seeing Koga.

"Taka," he snarled, "what do you want!"

"I heard what you did you greedy shit," she growled, "letting your pathetic wolves kill off an entire village to 'feed'"

"Nani?" gasped Sora.

"You're a dick," said Tsuki to Koga.

Koga growled.

"And all for a jewel shard," she grinned, "like the ones in your legs."

Sora gasped again.

"You didn't tell me you had jewel shards!"

"Urasai!" Koga ran at Taka.

Taka moved and Koga turned to attack again. This time Taka grabbed his arm. Koga growled and tried to pull away. Taka tightened her grip until her claws dug into his arm and her hand burst to flames. Koga cried out and held his arm. It was burnt and still bleeding. He glared up at her. He ran at her again. Taka yawned.

"Isamu... he's trying to violate me," she grumbled.

Isamu snarled and bounded out of the forest and snarled at Koga threateningly. Koga stopped quickly blowing dust in Isamu's face. Isamu snarled and brushed his eyes with a paw. Koga jumped over Isamu and punched Taka to the ground. Taka kicked him so he flew over her into a tree. And while he was in the air she slashed at his face giving him a scratch.

"Taka stop!" cried Sora.

"Go Taka go!... I mean... Die Koga die!" Tsuki snickered, getting an evil look from Sora.

Isamu snarled. A black aura circled him and when it disappeared he stood there. Now he looked like Kirara only he had dark purple strips barely visible, longer fangs, wild long fur, and long claws that stayed out and didn't retract. This made him look deadly. He roared and ran at Koga.

'The second form,' thought Taka.

Koga sat under the tree breathing hard and looked up to see Isamu running at him. Koga got up and jumped in the tree. Isamu slashed bringing the tree down in one slash. Sora practically screamed when it fell down her way. Tsuki walked out of the way and Sora jumped. Koga jumped out of the tree and snarled. When he looked down at the ground Taka and Isamu were gone again.

"Those wimps," he growled before he fell on one knee.

"Koga-kun," Sora cried as she ran up to him.

"Psht," Tsuki rolled her eyes, "what do ya mean wimps? They practically killed you," she motioned to Koga's arm, which was all burnt with blood dripping from it, and his stomach, where Taka kicked him, and Koga was holding it painfully.

"She's right Koga," Soar said softly, "if Taka didn't let go your arm would've burnt off," she wiped some blood from his face.

He growled.

'I'm going to go get my Kagome,' he smirked at the thought, 'I'll do it quickly so she can't catch me with her hanyou legs that aren't as fast as mine with these fragments.'

Ugh! I meant to put this online last night... but did I? Noooooooo I had to go to bed xD well at least it's on now :) please read and review
