Chapter 15 Tasukemamoru

Shippou was walking back to the Shrine with Rikka and Rin after school. They were joking and laughing, when out of the blue, Shippou and Rikka's expressions darkened, and they sniffed at the air. Rin, who looked confused, merely shrugged, thinking that it must be a youkai thing. She wasn't prepared for Shippou grabbing her writs and forcefully shoving her and Rikka behind him, growling at someone whom he was obviously protecting them from.

“Hey guys, whatcha' think this little punk it doin' trying to keep them girls from us?” sneered a voice that had an American accent to it. Shippou deepened hi growl and shifted his weight as though to block the girls from view. The voice cackled. Suddenly, two pairs of large arms wrapped around Rin and Rikka's torsos, causing them to scream in fear. Whirling around, Shippou snarled and jumped at their captor, slashing at one with his claws, while throwing foxfire that the other. Both dropped their prey, screeching in agony. Rin got Rikka's attention and they both scrambled out of the way. Taking out her cell phone, Rin dialed a number, and, murmuring, “Please be there” repeatedly, waited for someone to pick up on the other line. Finally, Rikka could hear an annoying voice squeak “Hello” through the phone, and Rin's eyes lit up with hope.

“Jaken-sama, please get Father. Tell him that we're in danger and to come quickly. Shippou's holding them off for now, but I don't know how long he can keep it up.” She said in a panicky voice.

“Where are you Rin?” The person she called Jaken asked concernedly.

“We're halfway to the Shrine from school, he'll know the route, oh Jaken, please hurry!” She cried. The dial tone soon followed her plea.

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

Shippou dodged the leaders' attacks effortlessly, and getting many in himself. He heard Rin make the phone call to Sesshoumaru, and was relieved he would get some help soon. However, his thinking caught him off guard, and the leader got a kick in, sending Shippou flying towards a tree. With a sickening crack, Shippou hit its trunk, and slid down, winded. Rikka and Rin cried out, when he hit the tree, giving away their hiding place. Smirking, the leader sauntered over to them, and picked Rikka up by her hair. She shrieked, letting the leader have a good look at her fangs, as she desperately tried to claw away his painful grip.
“What the fuck?! Lookie here boys, this one's a youkai! Probably mated to the twerp I threw against the tree. Oh, I know what I'm gonna do with you.” He smirked, reaching down with his other hand to undo his belt buckle. Screaming for Shippou to wake up, Rikka watched in horror as the man holding her up by her hair let his pants drop to his ankles, allowing god and everybody to see his length. He obviously believed underwear was too confining, for he had gone commando. Reaching for Rikka's school skirt, he lifted it and ripped off her panties. Screaming once more, Rikka flailed around, so she could bite him. Successfully squirming enough, she bit into his arm forcefully, causing the perverted human to drop her. Scrambling back to where Rin was, she replaced her undergarments and cried. Crawling over to Shippou, the two girls helped him up. He had been awake, and had witnessed the whole thing, but he couldn't move for he had been trapped under the tree, which had fallen on his leg. He had finally managed to push it off the same time that perverted bastard dropped Rikka. Shippou roared, lunging at the man who had dared try to rob Rikka of her innocence. Rin and Rikka watched in horror as Shippou's eyes turned scarlet and his face began to elongate. He's transforming Rin thought fearfully. They watched as Shippou, now in his true form, stood protectively in front of them his tail swishing from side to side, snarling as he crouched into an attack stance, his scarlet eyes narrowing dangerously. He launched towards he lead gangster with a menacing howl, landing atop him with a sickening crunch. Wincing, the two girls could almost see the bones cracking. Realizing what he was about to do, Rikka jumped up and ran towards the enraged youkai.

“No Shippou! Don't do this! This isn't you! Transform back! Please!” She begged as she grabbed his ruff and attempted to pull him off the human. Shippou turned to look at her, and, seeing that she was crying, realized that he was scaring her. Turning to look at Rin, he saw the same look in her eyes: sorrow and terror. Turning back to his prey, he rumbled warningly one last time, before stepping off his prone body, and turning towards Rikka. She nodded, a relieved smile breaking across his features as she swooped down and hugged him around his neck. Slowly returning to his humanoid form, Shippou hugged Rikka back, growling quietly in Kitsune language how sorry he was for scaring them both. Releasing her from the hug, he turned towards Rin, only to be bowled over by her hurling herself into his chest, crying like there was no tomorrow.
“Oh Shippou, I'm so glad that you're back!” She cried, pressing herself against him. Wrapping his arms around her petite form, he returned the embrace, putting his lips close to her ear.

“Rin, I will always protect you. Tasukemamoru.” He whispered. She nodded, and snuggled closer into his chest. Holding one arm open, Shippou gestured for Rikka to come closer. She complied, hugging him again, feeling him arm wrap around her shoulders.

That is how Sesshoumaru found them half an hour later.

I decided to write this chapter as I did just for some fluff. *wipes sweat off brow* I was even getting kind of scared for Rikka-chan, and I was the one writing it!

I want…..20 reviews please. I don't ask for a specific amount, I just didn't get very many last time, so I felt a bit unloved.

Sayonara!
