The Attempt

After Caitlin had her wound rebandaged she was up and about, even though Sesshomaru was protesting about it. Caitlin would just brush it off and then keep walking. She could careless about what happened to her, but with her friends it was another story. In that case she was one to get mad easily, especially when it came to Sesshomaru, then again, he was her mate, what else could she do?

Sesshomaru and Caitlin walked to the room that Tyr had been staying in, for the moment it was Kouga and Erin's room, they were treated better than Tyr because Erin was a personal friend, and Tyr was someone who just wanted to do inappropriate things with maids and other woman, who were not his mate.

"Erin! Kouga! You two better not be doing anything because I'm coming in!" Caitlin said as she stood outside the door to their room. She opened the door and Erin was writing something, Kouga was out like a light. "Few! You're not sleeping together!" Caitlin said with a laugh. Kouga didn't wake. "What happened to dozing?"

"I gave him something so he'd shut up. He kept saying that he didn't know any one, but he was going to find someone to transport us to the USA when we got into the future for me, so I kinda gave him something to drink, he drank it and now he wont wake for a while."

"Ah. Well, keeping that little thought to myself." Caitlin said.

"What thought?" Erin asked.

"Nothing, just something that I just thought of, it's nothing really." Caitlin answered.

"Bullshit."

"Yeah, either way you look at it, it's my thought so I don't need to tell you."

"I know you, you're thinking something along the lines of this comment 'Now that he's out, he's in the perfect state for you to have your way with'." Sesshomaru said.

"AH! SESSHOMARU!" Caitlin yelped as she covered his mouth with her hand. Sesshomaru was clueless to what he had done.

"WHAT?!" Erin yelled. Caitlin ducked behind Sesshomaru. "CAITLIN!"

"Caitlin is not here at the moment, please leave a message after the EXTREMLY long beep." Caitlin said in a computer like voice. "Beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-" Caitlin took a breath. "eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-" Caitlin took another breath. "p."

"Hi, this is Erin and this is my message." Erin said. "WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON IN THAT SICK MIND OF YOURS! YOU KNOW I WOULDN'T DO THAT UNTIL AFTER I WAS MARRIED!" Erin yelled.

"You are married." Sesshomaru and Caitlin said at the same time.

"Damn, I am aren't I?" Erin asked. Caitlin rolled her eyes and then came out from behind Sesshomaru.

"Oh yeah, have you see Azer at all?" Caitlin asked.

"No, I haven't seen him since he just disappeared." Erin answered.

"Hmm." Sesshomaru said as he thought a minute. "I wonder if his mate is still here." Sesshomaru said, then he walked from Erin and Kouga's room to Azer's room.

Caitlin looked around the room, and decided that she liked her room better.

"I'm going to go for a walk." Caitlin said as she stood up. "I'll be back later." she added, then walked out of the room. Erin went back to writing.

Looking around Caitlin didn't notice anything out of the ordinary. Naraku and Aetwin have been quiet for a while, I wonder what they're up to. Knowing them it'll be something big. Caitlin thought.

As she walked she felt more and more like she was being followed. Suddenly someone dropped down from the rafters and landed in front of her, it was Lyall.

"Yes?" Caitlin asked.

"You need to come with me." Lyall said.

"I'm not going any where."

"I'm afraid that you have no choice in the matter."

"Looks like I'll have to kick your ass then."

"That's not going to happen, not with that freshly dressed wound."

"I'll take the chance." Caitlin said as her claws extended.

"So that's your power."

"Would you like to see them first hand?"

"No, I'm afraid that you're not going to be fighting me, you're going to be fighting them." Lyall said as she pointed behind Caitlin. Caitlin turned around, there were troops from the East that filled the hall. "Have fun Caitlin, they have been ordered not to kill you, just severly hurt you, seeing as that's already done they might kill you." Lyall said, Caitlin growled at Lyall. "Attack!"

"Stupid LOW LIFE!" Caitlin growled at her, then dodged a sword that was aimed for her left leg, she jumped on top of it and kicked it's weilder in the head. Two more swords came at her, this time they were aiming for her torso, she moved out of the way and stabbed her claws into their legs so they couldn't walk.

It's getting hard to breathe...Caitlin thought, her wound was starting to bleed again. Damn it! I've gotta finish this quickly. Caitlin grabbed a sword from the hands of one of the fallen soldiers and swung it at a spear weilder. The spear stopped the sword and then Caitlin moved the sword just enough so that the blade was on the spear's wooden hilt. She cut the tip of the spear off and hurled the sword at the weilder.

She's not as weak as I thought, I might have to fight her. Lyall thought, then she saw a drop of blood fall from Caitlin, a smile spread across her face. Maybe not. Her wound has already opened again.

Caitlin jumped over the soliders and ran down the hall. She had to loose them in the maze of halls. She could follow her scent back, but she didn't think that any wolf demons or dog demons were among the soldiers, or at least she hoped.

"After her! Don't let her get away!"

"They're going to no where." Sesshomaru said, his whip took down the remaining soldiers. "You have some explaining to do." Sesshomaru added.

"I will not explain anything to the likes of you." Lyall said, she jumped from the rafters and tried to get away, Sesshomaru's whip grabbed her and held her still. "Damn it!" She growled as she struggled to get free.

"You're going to explain to me what you were doing here, trying to go after my mate or else I will kill you." Sesshomaru growled.

"And risk war with her friend's father-in-law?" Lyall asked.

"I already know that Azer wasn't the real Azer, he's been dead for a long while. It's not his scent in Azer's rooms. His family has already been killed and it was by people who can shape shift into other people, the only Land that has them is the East. They also don't have Naraku's scent so you can't pin it on him. Risky business trying to take Caitlin."

"You sure know a lot. But you don't know why we want Caitlin."

"I know that too. You want to reawaken her Time Powers and use them for your own benefit. That's why half of the people at the party were there." Sesshomaru continued.

"Why did you ask me when you already knew the answer?" Lyall asked.

"I would have prefered not to show that I knew what was going on before I was sure, your question just now has already told me I am right. I no longer have any use for you." Sesshomaru added, he killed Lyall and ran after Caitlin.

When Sesshomaru found her she was panting against the wall, her hand covered with her own blood.

"Damn them, attacking me like this..." Caitlin muttered, Sesshomaru wasn't sure if Caitlin knew that he was there, but at the moment he knew that she could care less. Sesshomaru put a hand on Caitlin's shoulder, Caitlin was unconcious. He picked Caitlin up and carried her back to their rooms, she sure was going through a lot of bandages.

The moment Erin smelled blood she came out of her room and looked around, soliders from the East were sprawled across the ground, dead. They looked like they had been killed by a whip. Why would Sesshomaru attack our troops? Erin asked herself, then she followed Sesshomaru's scent. When she found Sesshomaru we was coming out of his bedroom.

"What happened!?" Erin asked.

"Lyall attacked Caitlin, they want to awaken her Time Powers. I don't know how they found out about them, but they did." Sesshomaru answered.

"I didn't know anything about this. I'll go wake Kouga." Erin said. A few minutes later Kouga and Erin were walking to Sesshomaru's room.

"I can't believe this! Why would my mother attack Caitlin?!" Kouga asked.

"They know about her Time Powers." Erin answered. "I guess that your father and mother wanted to use Caitlin's powers for something. Luckily Caitlin got away before they could get to her." Erin explained. Erin opened the door to Sesshomaru and Caitlin's room, no one was there.

"Hello?" Kouga asked. No answer. Then he noticed a note on the bed.

'Neither Sesshomaru nor Caitlin are here. They are in my hands. Come get them if you will.' a note read, at the bottom it was signed
