Jaken begged forgiveness of his Lord, down on his hands and knees. He had just told Sesshomaru that Rin had been taken by Kagura, again! How many times would it take for Jaken to learn to keep a better eye on the girl?! Sesshomaru seemed unaffected by the words of Jaken and merely stepped past the annoying imp. He was walking fast, faster than normal; it would seem that being with Rin for so long had given him a soft side. Though, it was only for that little human girl and no one else. Picking up his pace, Sesshomaru left Jaken behind still begging forgiveness. Jaken soon looked up and ran faster Sesshomaru, realizing he had been left behind.
The smell of Naraku made Sesshomaru sick and with every step the scent got stronger. But he was set on revenge, not only for stealing his ward but also for being a backstabbing asshole. Sesshomaru was not one to forgive someone for do any kind of wrong to him. Jaken finally caught up to the great demon and followed him closely.
The high pitched screams gave Naraku a major migraine and caused him to become infuriated. He raised his hand high and flung it down onto the screamers face as hard as he could. The victim went flying across the room, but landed on her feet. She was crouched down, but when standing straight was about 5'6". Her long black hair was shimmering crimson from the blood that stained it. Her chest was heaving and the swells of her breast could be seen with every rise, due to how torn her kimono was. Her eyes spoke of only hunger, not for food but for the revenge again this low life demon, Naraku. She stood up tall after a few moments and pulled her hair behind her pointed ears. She had tan, almost pink, spiral markings on her arms and ankles, her eyes were light brown with yellow streaked within them. She was beautiful, even with all the blood that marked her pale face.
Naraku smirked then spoke to the young woman, "Why do you let me hurt you? Have you finally decided to join my ranks?" His voice was cold with the smallest tint of hopeful. He had been trying to get her to join him for a long while now, though this was his first time he had her in his grasps. "Come Jaden….."
"Do you really think a demon such as me would ever, EVER, consider joining your pathetic group? I wouldn't be caught dead working with such a low life like yourself," here eyes became a blood thirsty red as she spoke. A small smirk came to her face then she turned away from him. "You're not even worth my time. I'm done with you," she said with a small cackle then strutted her way out of his building.
Only feet from the rancid smelling palace Jaden stopped and looked to Kagura, who held a small human child under her arm. Kagura like Naraku almost as much as Jaden did, which wasn't at all. The two made eye contact for a brief moment then Kagura set the child down on a feather. Rin did not attempt to run. "Make it look good little Jade," Kagura said with a smile.
"I always do, Kagura," Jaden said. She enjoyed being called by her nickname; it gave her a sort of boost. Kagura pulled out her fan and sent wind crescents toward Jade.
Sesshomaru could smell Rin; she was getting closer and closer. His eyes narrowed as he picked up a strange demons scent. It was another dog demon, fully breed, and not from his family line. He took off running, heading right for the two females. Then they came into view, the demon was putting the child down. Sesshomaru lunged and the two dog demons went flying. "Rin! Run!" they both said at the same time. Then looked at one another. Sesshomaru had pinned her down to the ground, his claws drawing blood on her arms. In defense, Jade brought her claws up and slashed Sesshomaru across the face then kicked him off of her.
Rin came running and stood in between the two. "Please stop my Lord. Jade saved me from Kagura!" the girl said tugging on Sesshomaru's sleeve. She then looked to Jade, "Sesshomaru is my best friend! Please stop fighting."
Sesshomaru never let his guard down and kept his hand on the hilt of his sword. Jade was the same way, never moving from an attack position. "Sesshomaru, Demon Lord of the West, it's an honor," Jade said, she was trying to ease the demons defense. Rin then ran over to Jade and tugged on her knee length ripped kimono.
"Jade, will you come travel with us?" the child said sweetly. Sesshomaru's body tensed, the girl had done some crazy things but too ask another demon to travel with them, without his permission, was way out of bounds. Rin then looked to Sesshomaru, "Please my lord! She saved me, like you did. She's a demon so she can take care of herself. Please?" Jade felt as though Rin found a puppy and was begging Sesshomaru to have it as a pet, Jade being the puppy. It didn't make her happy, but the child was only being naïve.
Sesshomaru and Jade looked to one another, as if speaking mentally. The two watch each other for a long moment then looked to Rin. "She can stay," Sesshomaru said lightly then turned and began to walk away. Rin jumped up and down with glee. The thought of another female was the best thing she could think of wanting. And, she was about to get what she wanted. Rin gave Jade the cute puppy dogs face, quivering lip and all. Jade didn't know whether to say yes, or no.
But, taking in a deep breath she began to follow behind Sesshomaru, letting her answer be yes. Though who knew how long with would last. Jade was not the biggest fan of humans and did no know how long it would be until this little girl annoyed her to a breaking point. But, she did know Sesshomaru was after Naraku and he could be of use to her. She smirked at the though of it. Two powerful dog demons finally ending Naraku for good. Her smirk grew the more she thought about it.
