Sesshomaru was seething. How dare that insufferable half breed even think to do something like that to him. To shake that cold water onto him as if he were one of his human friends to toy with. He was The Sesshomaru. Lord of the West. The Great Dog Demon. When he got his hands on that hanyou, he would learn to respect and fear him as he should.
InuYasha had only just managed to dodge his brother's claws for the fifth time before he decided to try something else. He knew that though he was a strong hanyou, he still got tired quicker than a full demon and he couldn't keep ducking out of Sesshomaru's reach forever. He jumped into the tallest tree he could find and yelled, "WAIT!"
"You dare attempt to order me around half breed?" Sesshomaru questioned icily while slowly approaching the hanyou. His little brother was seemingly fearless but Sesshomaru noticed his ears twitching at every step he took and how he was crouched in that tree, ready to scurry down and away as soon as he detected the next attack.
The little clearing had already almost doubled in size and if this continued it would only get worse. InuYasha was trying to figure out a way to calm his brother down and fast. "How about we spar? Loser does whatever the winner wants." he suggested. He really hoped Sesshomaru would say yes, or at least think about it. He'd rather not get into contact with his brother's poisonous claws ever again if he could.
Sesshomaru paused in his steps eying his brother. He knew he could just beat the hanyou unconscious now and be done with his petulance for a few hours while he recovered, but this little preposition piqued his interest. He thought it over for a few minutes but kept the poison dripping so as not to give the hanyou a sign that he wasn't going to maul him.
InuYasha was trying to appear nonchalant, but he knew that Sesshomaru could see through it. He was starting to think this was a bad idea. A very bad idea. He was going to get his ass handed to him and then be forced to do whatever that icy bastard wanted. "This has got to be the worst thing I could ever think of! But it's all I could do! That ass was about to maul me!!!!" he thought, trying to justify his poor judgement.
Sesshomaru smirked and the poison stopped dripping. He was going to make his "dear" little brother know his place, and he was going to enjoy every second of it.
InuYasha felt a chill go down his spine at his brother's smirk He didn't like that glint in Sesshomaru's eyes. He didn't like it at all.
