"Where would Lord Jaken and Lord Sesshōmaru have gone?"
Carrying a finger under her chin, Rin the young companion of Sesshōmaru along with Jaken, closes her eyes for a few seconds as she goes into deep thoughts and then having tired of thinking, throws a new branch into the bonfire.
*crack* *crack* *crack* *crack*"
The shift in weight distribution managed to make the flames flutter for a few seconds, and thanks to that the surroundings of the dark forest are momentarily illuminated. In this brief moment of light, shadows can be seen approaching in this direction.
"Where did that scoundrel Kaijinbo go, sword and all?"
With the approach of the shadows these are revealed to be Jaken the little imp, Sesshōmaru as impassive as ever and lastly his two headed dragon mount.
"Lord Sesshōmaru!"
"Rin don't move!"
Stopping dead in her tracks upon hearing Sesshōmaru's words of warning, Rin remains static on the spot until he manages to arrive. Advancing in a flash thanks to his superior abilities, Sesshōmaru reaches the vicinity of the forest and with a flick of his wrist all the trees within 10 feet are cut in half.
*Boom* *Boom* *Boom* *Boom*.
The fall of the trees did not create any dust cloud or anything like that, it even seems that the wind served as a buffer this time. Uninterested in that matter, Sesshōmaru focuses all his senses on the newcomer.
"A woman?"
"That scent is the same as that man who wore a baboon skin and handed him a human arm. That same one which was embedded with a shard of the shikon pearl."
As Jaken recalled the facts associated with the scent emanating from that woman, Sesshōmaru slightly narrowed his eyes.
"I remember all too well all the trouble we got into because of her. If we hadn't gotten smart, that arm would have eaten the great master Sesshōmaru and that aggressive monk nearly beat me to death.... Any more and I won't live to tell the tale."
Shuddering in place at those dark deeds, Jaken squeezes the dragon's restraints tightly and the dragon responds by smacking him with its scaly tail on his back.
"Yes, this smell looks familiar. It bears a strong resemblance to that of Naraku, the fraudulent being who set me up."
Maintaining an incredible bearing even when speaking of such an unpleasant fact, Sesshōmaru now pays more attention to the guest that has arrived at his door.
"Ha, you are Sesshōmaru, Inuyasha's older brother. You look so fragile and delicate. I am Kagura, the spirit that manipulates the winds and I am also an extension of Naraku."
"An extension?"
In Sesshōmaru's tone there was not a hint of interest in the matter, but he certainly seems interested in why she is appearing here. Giving him a smile with her red lips, Kagura attempts to open her fan and notices a slight movement in Sesshōmaru quickly closes it, before continuing to speak.
"That's right and so is the head of the demon you gave to Kaijinbo, so he can forge you a new sword. The fangs you used are from Goshinki, another extension of Naraku."
"And what does that matter, you just came to tell me? I don't see the point."
Here there was no longer any doubt, it was a total fact that Sesshōmaru cared less than nothing about all the context about his sword.
"Can't you detect it? The Tokijin sword that was made from Goshinki's fangs is located in the vicinity of this place!"
Finishing his words, an incredibly powerful gust of wind lifts Sesshōmaru's white hair into the sky, and taking advantage of this Kagura rises into the air, thus disappearing into the night sky.
"Wow what a haughty attitude, she looks like the most vulgar woman to me."
"Rin, you can move now."
Overlooking Jaken's words, Sesshōmaru turns his face slightly and speaks to Rin who remained static throughout.
"Yes!"
"Tokijin, huh."
"You're pretty crazy..."
Scoffing at Rin who responds with her voice raised, Jaken shakes his head and lets go of Sesshōmaru's saddle restraints.
In another time and place...
"Shut up already, I've had enough of listening to the same nonsense!"
"Umm?" x6
Sounding surprised by Inuyasha's sudden outburst, everyone calms down as Asahiko points to Inuyasha's shoulder and looking there, they notice the Myoga flea.
"We won't shut up until you keep your promise, you can't neglect Steel Fang again!"
"Um!
With Inuyasha acting like an idiot, the whole group plus Totosai and Asahiko gather in a round, before starting to speak.
"What do you think, Miss Kagome? I think the most advisable thing to do is to tell Inuyasha the truth."
"That Steel Fang serves to keep his blood coming from demons sealed?".
"Yes, since he doesn't know, easily disregards Steel Fang."
The ones talking are Kagome and Miroku, while the remaining ones seem to be thinking, except for Asahiko who has her eyes on Totosai.
"No, wait, don't go telling him."
"Elder Myoga."
"You know how master Inuyasha is, if he learns that secret, he will forget about the sword and start fighting with his claws along with his fangs."
Nodding to Myoga's words, Miroku gets ready to continue speaking.
"I get the point and then he'll get the hang of it."
"Exactly, Master Inuyasha's way of thinking is practical and trivial."
"Umm, he 's right."
Christopher/Asahiko pov….
I reckon they are putting together a great story, certainly Inuyasha is a jerk who strikes before he thinks, but if you talk to him head on he is someone slightly rational and more so when you consider that love/hate with his human side.
"Oh, I was already thinking of going myself."
"You, Asahiko, the man who only knows how to do random things and come up with them on the spur of the moment."
"There are times when I can be a serious person, Miroku, it just so happens that I'm hardly ever in that state."
Throwing myself back down on the green grass and enjoying the rays of the sun caressing my skin, I look up at the boys faces until the little tanuki seems to remember something"
"Right, the time they captured Kikyo."
"That's right, that time she seemed like a completely different person."
"Totally."
Ignoring that they're talking about me, I stretched my arms and tried to hug the sun, yes I tried, since at some point the whole sky became stormy and windy.
*Booooom!"
With a powerful lightning bolt illuminating the dark green-hued sky, Sesshōmaru and his mount appear in the sky with an epic entrance as always.
"Is it that no one can enjoy a blessed nap anymore?
Smacking my face and seriously considering whether to just ignore everything about the matter, I notice how the surrounding temperature begins to drop.
It was impossible now to enjoy a good nap, though fun can always be had in other ways.
"Yeah... I hope this is interesting."
