Chapter 6

Inuyasha had finished briefing his men on the plan for the move. Everyone had there assigned places and where getting everything ready to move. Miroku looked at Inuyasha with a big lecherous grin on his face and said, "You know I could travel with the females and help protect them. You don't need me to go along with you." He tried. "No, you're coming with me so I can keep an eye on you. I don't want you getting close to the girl, I already know what you are planning and it's not going to work." Said Inuyasha as he drew himself up and crossed his arms over his chest while staring directly into his friend's eyes, telling him basically that whatever it was he was planning that it wasn't going to work. Miroku put on his best hurt face and replied, "how can you think so ill of me, I was only interested in the safety of the females as we travel." He sounded hurt, but unfortunately Inuyasha saw right threw it. "Yeah and your lecherous hands will be wondering all over their bodies, no thanks you're staying with me." He gave his friend an evil smirk, flaunting his victory over winning the matter, and then turned his attention to one of the men who was making a comment about one of the female captives. (Jinx: you know? *taps chin* you don't have to live with me you know? Cindy: yeah it's not like she's forcing you? Mike: oh yes she did, jinx can lay the guilt on pretty thick.)

"Hey do you guys know if anyone has laid claims to the captive with the blue eyes?" said a young Qui-se (pronounced Kwis) with interest. Everyone around him shook their head no. "We didn't know there was a captive with blue eyes," said one of the over weight ugly men. "Well I'm laying claims to her she is so hot, those gorgeous blue eyes and that sexy body, I can't wait to bed her!" Qui-se said as he started to drool with anticipation. Inuyasha hearing what the young man was saying about his angel had started to growl as the young man continued to describe what he would do to her when they stopped for the night.

Inuyasha had about enough of the young mans comments about his angel, he slowly walked over to him and grabbed him by the throat and lifted him high up off the ground. His feet dangling helplessly as he clawed at the angered hanyou's hand around his throat.

Everyone looked on in horror as their leader raised the young man off the ground as he started to speak. "The captive with the blue eyes belongs to me," he said with a growl clearly out of anger, as his nostrils flared. "If I catch anyone laying a hand on her or talking in an inappropriate way about her I will personally tear their hearts out, do I make myself clear" said Inuyasha as he glared at the young man in his grasp.

When that young man didn't make a move to answer, he violently shook him. "Do I make myself clear!" he said with more force. All of his men stared with wide eyes at his statement. Inuyasha never took a captive but it seems that he has this time and he was willing to kill anyone who tried to claim her. All of his men backed away as Inuyasha turned and looked at each of them making sure they all heard his threat. All of them were scared, the scent of their fear was hanging heavily in the air, he let go of Qui-se, who landed rather harshly on his butt and quickly scooted away from his leader with fear evident in his eyes. "Touch her and you'll see what will happen to you," said Inuyasha as he bared his fangs. Qui-se shook his head, as he was massaging his throat with care, wincing at the newly formed bruise, showing him that he wouldn't even dare touch her. After Inuyasha had released him he clumsily hurried away making sure he stayed hid for the rest of the trip. (Jinx: *raspberry* Cindy: you owe me a nickel!! Mike: not you too *sigh*)

Miroku smiled at his friend, "protective of her are we?" he said with a hint of sarcasm in his voice. Inuyasha looked at him, and if looks could kill he would be dead ten times over. Inuyasha "Fehed" and left his friend to his lecherous thoughts. As he was walking away he said over his shoulder, "hey Miroku, start moving the men towards home I'm going ahead to scout the area, oh and make sure they all know that the girl is off limits, and that especially applies to you!" He turned and continued to walk away; leaving a very shocked and confused Miroku behind wondering what in the hell did the girl do to his friend.

The group traveled all day only resting when the women started to fall behind on the march. Kagome was walking at the end of the line, not wanting to be near the women for fear that they would turn on her again. She began to notice that the women were getting hurt, cuts and bruises mostly but if left untreated they could get infected and that wouldn't result to anything good. As she was walking she was looking for herbs along the way, silently thanking her mother for teaching her all she now knows.

Every now and then she would stop and smell a plant. Seeing that it was what she was looking for she picked it and put it in a pouch on the inside of her shirt, keeping it hidden just incase it wasn't allowed. She did this the entire trip, going unnoticed by the whole tribe. When the group finally came to a stop for the night she pulled the herbs out of her shirt and started mixing them. She found a big leaf to serve as a bowl; seeing that they were near a river she walked to it and found two smooth river rocks to use to crush the herbs with. She mixed in a little water with the herbs to form a pasty like substance. Seeing that she was all good and ready she walked back to the women, steadying her nerves as she approached slowly.

The women seeing her approach turned their heads towards her and as one shouted, "What do you want here half-breed, we don't want your kind near us." They all said with enough hatred in there voice to scare away even the biggest of demons. (Jinx: so are you saying that you don't want to live with me anymore? *sob* Mike: That would be nice *day dreams* Cindy: MIKE!)

Kagome just looked at them with pity in her eyes, "I have some medicine that will help prevent your wounds from getting infected, if I don't treat them you will get sick from blood poisoning and die, the choice is yours, do you want a half breed like me to treat your wounds or would you rather die a painful death?" she said with power in her voice. The women looked at each other not knowing what to do they didn't want to die but being a captive was not a way to live. They had to fight their most inner demons before one of the women said, "I don't want to die show me what I have to do with the medicine." Kagome breathed a sigh of relief as she approached the one who had spoken to her. She kneeled down and rubbed some of the medicine on her wound. The woman felt the pain go away instantly and smiled with gratitude. "It doesn't hurt any more. Where did you learn how to do that?" the woman asked genuinely interested. Kagome smiled and said, "My mother was a doctor and she taught me everything she knew on how to heal." She handed the woman the leaf with the paste and told her how to use it. Then she got up and left the group of women to go sit underneath a tree as they tended to their own wounds. (Mike: you know I actually think it would be boring if I wasn't living with jinx? Jinx: Vielen Dank *hugs mike* Mike: oh god she's speaking German again *sigh* Jinx: what I was just thanking you. *pout* Cindy: *sigh*)

Miroku had watched with interest as he saw the girl go to the river and mixed some herbs to form a paste to treat the captives wounds. He saw when she handed the leaf to the woman who had let her treat her wound then left to go to sit under a tree away from the group. `Interesting I think she is a healer' he stood and went over to the women and motioned for them to give him the leaf they were holding, they did it reluctantly, he took it and then sniffed at the herbs that had been crushed into a paste. `Hmm, there are at least four different kinds of herbs that I can smell she is a healer, only a healer could do this with herbs.' He gave the women back the leaf and walked away in search of he's hanyou friend.

---------------------------------------------

Jinx had been following the scent of the stranger all day, they were close she could tell; soon her sister would be with her again. Her heart filled with joy at the thought of Kagome hugging her when she would emerge from the forest. She continued walking down the trail picking up on Kagome's scent for the first time now that she was closer. `She must be walking now that's why I can smell her all over the place, and she's picking up herbs along the way too, I wonder why? Could she be hurt, is she trying to gather herbs to put on her wounds?' Jinx growled at the thought of her sister being hurt by the person who captured her. She continued walking after her sister's scent she should be able to catch up to them by nightfall. Then she would get her back.

It was already getting dark and judging from all the noise that she was hearing from up ahead the group had stopped for the night. Jinx decided to stay in the bushes and wait until they had all gone to sleep before she went after Kagome. (Jinx: *hits mike in back of head* Mike: hey! What was that for? Jinx: because I could *evil laughter* Mike: *hits Jinx in back of head* Jinx: hey that's not fair! Mike: here let me take it back *hits jinx in back of head again* Jinx: hey! *hits mike in back of head* Cindy: *sigh* how old are you two! Jinx: *appears in pigtails* eighteen *giggle* Mike: *licks lollypop* twenty two *chuckle* Cindy: that question wasn't meant to be answered.)

Jinx stayed hidden in the brush for some time, when all of the sudden her ears picked up a sound coming from behind her. She jerked up and looked into the forest, her ears twitching from side to side trying to determine the location of the sound. Not soon after did she spot the intruders coming towards her, it was a pack of wolves. `They must be making there way towards the group where Kagome is, planning an attack. I have to defend Kagome or she'll get hurt.' She slowly rose to her feet, making her presence known to the wolf pack. There were at least twenty wolves she was out numbered. Her only thoughts were to get to Kagome and get her out of harms way.

Jinx stood her ground, growling, baring her razor sharp teeth at the approaching wolves. Jinx was a lot bigger too; she was easily twice the size as the biggest male, probably the alpha male. The wolves stopped, eyeing the intruder as they started to growl at each other as the standoff started. Jinx heard the call from the other wolves on the other side of the clearing signaling the start of the attack. She heard as the women that had been traveling with the Indians started screaming at the top of their lungs. The wolves were attacking, and Kagome might be in the middle of it. (Cindy: do you two always knit pick at each other? Mike: *flicks jinx in head* Jinx: *pinches mike* were you saying something Cindy? Cindy: I think I just answered my own question)

Jinx being worried she turned and ran directly towards the Indian's camp followed closely by the wolves that gave chase.

When Jinx entered the camp she saw the wolves attacking a group of warriors protecting a large group of women. The women were screaming as one of the wolves' got threw and attacked one of them, killing her instantly. Other men joined in the fight, dropping the fresh meat that they only killed moments ago from a hunt.

Jinx however was running through the group trying to find Kagome dodging wolves, humans and demons in her search for the girl. As she was running she heard someone call her name, she turned and saw Kagome near a tree and ran towards her. Kagome screamed her name again in joy having been reunited with her sister as she began running towards her. Kagome didn't notice the wolf that was behind her until he jumped on her back knocking her to the cold hard ground all the while digging his claws into her slender shoulder. Kagome hit her head on a rock, instantly knocked unconscious.

Kagome laid there motionless as Jinx looked on in horror. `That god damn wolf just hurt my sister!' Jinx was so enraged at the sight of her sister being hurt that she started to change. Her eyes turned blood red; her fangs grew longer along with her claws. She started to double in size as her rage continued. She growled deeper and much more menacing, the blue hair on the back of her neck stood on end. She lowered her head and ears as she approached the offending wolf. She leaped into the air as she pushed him off her sister. She stood over Kagome protecting her. Jinx wouldn't move from her spot. She would protect Kagome with her life as she bared her fangs to her enemies.

These wolves, in Jinx opinion, were not very smart. The ones that Jinx thought as having some semblance of a brain left the moment she started defending Kagome, the stupid ones, the ones with no brains stayed there waiting for the right moment to attack her. Jinx not being one to disappoint her audience attacked the first wolf that made a move. As the wolf charged toward Jinx she grabbed the wolf by the throat with her massive jaws, throwing it over her shoulder, ripping out his throat in the process. It landed with a sickening thud on the ground grasping for air as it lay there bleeding to death.

The next wolf thought that he could attack Jinx from behind, being too distracted with his fallen comrade. As another wolf tried to get to Kagome this was a very bad mistake on both their parts.

Jinx saw what was happening she raised her claws, cutting the intruder in half as he approached her sister while she simply shook off the one that had landed on her back. Her midnight blue fur was so thick that not a single one of the wimpy bites ever touched her skin. One by one the wolves started to fall.

Soon they were all dead in a matter of minutes.

Jinx finally had a chance to look over Kagome. She had a deep cut on her head, which was bleeding pretty badly, and she was unconscious. Jinx had to get Kagome out of this area as fast as she could so she laid on the ground next to the fallen girl, then she rolled toward her sister, gently grabbed her by the shirt making sure she didn't hurt her and rolled back the other way pulling Kagome up onto her back with practiced ease. Jinx carefully shifted Kagome on her back making it more comfortable for the both of them. Being satisfied that she would not fall off she left with Kagome to go into the woods. (Jinx: *jumps on mike* Mike: *tickles jinx's sides* Cindy: I'm surrounded by idiots *sigh*)

Inuyasha arrived at the camp in time to help fight off the rouge wolf pack. He didn't recognize any of them as coming from Kouga's pack so he had no problems killing them. When they were finally defeated they checked all of the captives, they had lost only five in the unexpected attack. Inuyasha looked around searching for the girl. "Hey has anyone seen the girl with the blue eyes?" he asked his men with concern, one man dared to answer his question knowing he wouldn't like the answer. "She was dragged away into the forest by a large wolf," he said almost too scared to answer his leader. Inuyasha heart had stopped at hearing that his angel was taken by a large wolf. He started to growl deep in his throat as his eyes flashed red. The next thing the men knew there was a flash of silver and red in front of their faces and as their leader was gone.

Inuyasha took off with lighting speed following his angel's scent. `I'm going to get her back no matter what I have to do I am going to get back my angel,' was his thoughts as he raced through the forest with graceful speed.

Jinx finally stopped after traveling about fifteen miles from where they once were. She placed Kagome on the ground. She could still smell the blood from her wounds, it was not stopping and the girl was looking pale. Jinx feared that after everything that they had gone through that she could still loose her sister. She licked Kagome's face in an effort to rouse her, but her efforts were futile. She tried to nudge her with her cold nose, which had worked in the past, but still she didn't wake. Jinx was starting to get more, and more with every passing minute, worried that if Kagome didn't wake up soon to tend to her wounds she could bleed to death. Jinx looked off toward the forest and sniffed the air. They were alone no intruders were near by so she opted to go hunting so when the girl revived she would have something to at least eat. With a heavy heart she left her sister to go hunt, it wouldn't take her long but she still hated to leave her again. She walked off into the forest in search of food. (Jinx: aw…I'm so sweet! Mike: *falls off bed laughing* Cindy: *giggles* Jinx: grumbles*)

---------------------------------------------

Mike: *duct tapes jinx to chair and pops sock into her mouth*

Cindy: what did you do that for?

Mike: shush… *cups ear* did you hear that?

Cindy: hear what?

Mike: exactly!

Jinx: *muffle*

Mike: peace and quite ah…..

Jinx: *rolls over and kicks mike in shin* *muffled evil laughter*

Cindy: *sigh*
