InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Love at first sight ❯ How Well Can You Fight? ( Chapter 5 )

Sorrrysorrysorrysorrysorrysorrysorry!!!!!!!!! I know it's been a while since I last wrote, but with the holidays, and going to Michigan (I live in Florida, and we had to go by car! And the car broke down in Tennessee!), and my mother hogging the computer (don't have my own yet) I haven't really been able to do anything! But, to make up for it, I'll write as much as I can for the next few days! So, on with the story!!!!!!!!

 

 

Chapter 4

How Well Can You Fight?

 

 

The food disappeared nearly instantly. Then the guys wanted to know more about Rin's collection. She was soon pointing out the different swords that her grandfather had given to her and letting them inspect the handiwork. They touched with extreme caution.

 

“Which ones did you make yourself?” Sesshomaru wanted to know. Rin pointed out her favorite, the shining silver blade that hung beside Kagome's bow and quiver. The katana was light and beautifully made. The handle was made from bright orange cloth that looked almost red in the shadows of the teens.

 

“How well can you fight?” Inuyasha asked in a challenging tone, as if daring her to say that she was skilled.

 

“Well you can find out for yourself. Here.” Rin said, tossing him a larger katana in its sheath. Rin then led them out to an open area in her backyard that was made for practice and battles.

 

They both readied themselves, taking up their positions, swords at the ready. Sango then waved a blood-red flag and the two flew at each other, steel flashing under the sunlight.

 

“It's almost as if they have wings.” Sango said, surprised at the amazing speed of her friends.

 

Not exactly wings, Thought Miroku, and turned his attention back to the fight.

 

Rin came slicing towards Inuyasha, blade swinging with experience. But Inu had experience too, and dodged the sword as if it were a stick being thrown at him. He then attached with a crescent-strike, an attach where the blade would do a semi-circle, coming towards the side area. There was the clang of metal-on-metal as Rin blocked with her own sword. Inuyasha had more strength, though, and forced her back. Inuyasha lunged, missed, and then it was over. Rin had slid around his katana, slipped behind him, and put her weapon to his neck.

 

Sango and Kagome cheered as Miroku and Sesshomaru stared in shock.

 

She's not just good, Thought Sesshomaru, she's exhalent!

 

“Feh, I was going easy on her.” Inuyasha said stubbornly. But the thing was, he wasn't going easy on her; and that scared him.

 

“Anyone up for a horror movie?” Miroku asked.

 

He got three “No way!”s and two “Oh ya!”s.

 

Miroku himself wanted to watch a horror movie, so that was three to three.

 

“We have a tie!” He announced.

 

“But there are only two people who want to watch one!” Kagome cried.

 

“No, I want to watch a horror movie too, so that's a tie.” Miroku answered.

 

“It's my house!” Rin, of course.

 

“We brought the movie.” That was Inu.

 

“Why do you carry around horror movies with you?” Both Sessh and Kagome.

 

“Because you never know when your gonna need one; like now!” Inuyasha defended himself.

 

Sango shook her head at the moron.

 

Kagome was trying to sneak away.

 

Inuyasha was going to Sesshomaru's car to get the movie and caught her.

 

Miroku was being perverted, then got slapped.

 

Sesshomaru was trying to con Rin into watching it with them.

 

Rin was slowly being defeated.

 

Sesshomaru won! Inuyasha had the DVD.

They all filed into the living room, Rin's Panasonic TV flicking on as Kagome got hold of the remote. She expertly switched it to the DVD player and Miroku slipped in the disc. Suddenly, two things, hissing and spitting, attached Inuyasha.

 

“GET THESE THINGS OFFA ME!!!!” he roared, trying to pry the sharp-clawed furballs away from his head.

 

“Kilala!”

 

“Karuku!”

 

The angry fangs and claws pulled away and leapt towards Sango and Rin. The fuzzy things that slashed at Inu's head just happened to be two cats. One of them, Kilala, was a soft cream color, with black markings, red eyes, and two striped tails.

 

Wait, two? What an odd cat! Sesshomaru thought, looking at the cat strangely.

 

The other cat, Karuku, was somewhat normal, and for that Sesshomaru was thankful. Karuku was kind of scruffy, with dark tabby fur that looked like super dark wood; he also had one white paw and eyes that were purple like amethyst crystals. He seemed to be mischievous, like his owner.

 

“Sorry `bout that.” Rin said.

 

“Ya, I don't now why they attached you, Kilala's usually so gentle!” Sango added.

 

“What is your cat doing here anyway, Sango?” Asked Miroku, trying to change the subject.

 

“When Sango, Rin and I are all gone, we put our cats in the same house, so they won't be lonely!” Kagome explained, picking up what Inuyasha thought was a couch cushion and petting it as it purred.

 

“This is Buyo.” She added.

 

The guys only shook their heads and started to get comfortable spots for the movie. Rin flicked off the lights, then curled up on the couch in between Sesshomaru and Inuyasha. Miroku sat in the chair, with Sango sitting beside of it, near his foot; and Kagome sat on the other side of Inuyasha.

 

“You can hold onto me if you get scared.” Miroku offered to Sango.

 

“As if.” She replied.

 

They then watched Freddy vs. Jason for the next two hours. As it ended up, Sango had griped onto the side of Miroku's pants so hard that he slid down beside her and let her hide behind his arm. Kagome was hiding her face in Inuyasha's shoulder, and he didn't seem to mind. Rin had started shaking and hid underneath a blanket so that Sesshomaru couldn't help but hold her gently against him. She shook a little less after that.

 

“Uh, the movie's over.” Inuyasha said to the cowering girl beside him. Kagome slowly moved her head away from his shoulder, looking relieved then blushing furiously. Sango peeked over Miroku's arm, then, the same shade of crimson as Kagome, shoved him away. Sesshomaru gently pulled the blanket away from Rin's face and saw that she looked rather nervous, as if the movie was a predator that only gone a few yards away. He gave her a very small smile and helped her get the rest of the way out of the tangled shelter she had made herself.

 

“What time is it?” asked Kagome, back to her old self and trying not to remember the warmth of Inuyasha's body.

 

“Six pm.” Rin answered, glancing at the clock.

 

“Ah, shit! I was supposed to be home by 5:30!” Sango yelled, frantically grabbing her bag and shooting towards the door.

 

“Wanna lift?” She yelled to Kagome, who was grabbing her own stuff.

 

“Thanks!” she said with relief, then jumped into the back of Sango's mustang and they drove off as quickly as the car said they could go.

 

“Well I guess we'll be leaving to then, see ya soon!” Miroku said as he started off to Sesshomaru's Jeep. Inuyasha followed shortly after and Sesshomaru had to grab his keys.

 

“See ya `round.” Sesshomaru said, then slipped into the driver's seat and took off.

 

“See ya.” Rin said softly in return.
