Nikko P.O.V.
Sesshomaru grabbed Miroku by the throat and held him against a tree with a sickening crack against the bark. Sesshomaru growled in anger at him with red fury in his eyes.
"You touched something that doesn't belong to you." Sesshomaru said still growling as Miroku struggled to get free from his grasp. "Sesshomaru!" Inuyasha shouted as he brought his sword out, which was the biggest sword I have ever seen.
"Let Miroku go!...He has nothing to do with whatever it is you accuse him of." Inuyasha shouted. "He touched Nikko, it is my affair to deal with him." Sesshomaru said still looking at Miroku with fury.
"Well...he did touch Nikko on the butt." Shippo said. My face burned red when he said that, confirming the accusation. Kagome and Sango made stern faces at the comment while they looked at Miroku.
"Yep...he's done that before." Sango said sternly. "Yeah...Miroku may deserve whatever he has done but not while I'm around, now it's time to face me, Sesshomaru!" Inuyasha said as he lunged towards him.
Sesshomaru immediately tossed Miroku away from him like a swating a fly in annoyance as he turned to face Inuyasha. Miroku then landed on the ground on his back with groan as he was towards Sango and Kagome as Inuyasha swung his sword down and missed Sesshomaru as he suddenly appeared in the air.
They ran to him and moved him away from the battle, while Inuyasha and Sesshomaru were heading to an open field away from the village. I went to Kagome and Sango as Miroku was having a coughing fit.
"Are you ok Miroku?" I asked. He looked up to me and nodded as he stood up, catching his breath as he rubbed his neck where Sesshomaru had hold of him. Him and Sango looked at me with concern. "Why did Sesshomaru go after Miroku for just touching you, is there something going on between you two?" Sango said as she was pushing Miroku to his feet.
I was lost in thought, then I looked towards the field where Inuyasha and Sesshomaru were fighting in. Their fighting styles and skills were a thing of beauty to look at. Inuyasha's harsh and yet stern swings of his sword were amazing, something so heavy and yet quick to strike.
Sesshomaru on the other hand, was graceful in the fight like a dance he did with perfection as he moved to evade his brother's sword. He was only using his poison claws and not his weapons he had on hand.
It seem strange that he has two swords on him and yet he would not use them, even in the time I spent with him on the journey, I had only seen him take out his swords twice in battle but only used the Tokojin but never the other sword. So far he'd seemed to have predicted his brother's next attack and would use a counter attack against it.
He was quite calm despite the dire danger of the battle against his brother. Which perplexed me. "How can Sesshomaru be so calm at a time like this?...When he was just about to harm Miroku with murderous rage in his eyes." I thought as I was still staring at the battle in front of us.
I shook my head, ridding the hypnotic trace of the battle but I was still unsure about our current thing that we have between us. "Honestly...I don't know." I whispered as I looked back to the three of them. They looked at me with understanding and then were discussing something, while I was half listening
A few moments later, I spotted something in the corner of my eye as something was moving. I looked to it and what I saw made my blood run cold and my heart stop.
It was Rin, who was chasing a butterfly while Jaken was running after her...they were in the field where the battle was taking. I saw Inuyasha's sword having wind forming around the blade, surrounding it as if it had powers of its own and he was aiming it towards Sesshomaru while Rin was at the side of it, too close that she would no be at a safe distance from blast of the attack.
Nor Inuyasha or Sesshomaru hadn't notice Rin as they were focused on each other as they were in battle. If Inuyasha attacks, Jaken was still too long of a distance away from Rin to protect her from the attack and Inuyasha's attack would harm Rin... I was not going to let that happen.
As if by instinct, I immediately ran into the field towards Rin as fast as I could and I reached towards her pushing myself to get to her in time. Then Inuyasha had swung his sword down to the ground. "Wind Scar!" He shouted and his aim was true with a dangerous force of wind coming towards us.
I grabbed Rin into my arms, holding her to my chest, crouched down and turned away from it, using my body as a shield to protect her from the blast. At the last moment, I called out in desperation. "Sesshomaru!" I shouted as I closed my eyes, waiting for the impact...
