Chapter 8
Three hours later, Lin had her fill of Miroku. "Monk don't touch me again. I have many ways to cause you pain.", she warned.
She rolled her eyes at Kagome, Sango, and Sophia. "I'm going to teach him a real lesson, but first I must warn my protectors.", she whispered.
She danced up to Michael and Sesshomaru, linking her arms thru theirs and walking on. She turned once and looked at Sophia, then gave both men's asses a lecherous look. All the women burst into laughter, Miroku had the grace to blush.
When the three got out of ear shot she said, "I'm giving you an early warning. I'm going to teach that monk a lesson. Michael, I know you don't want to watch. Sesshomaru, don't get any ideas." She let go of their arms and danced ahead of everyone.
Sesshomaru looked at Michael, "I wonder what she has in mind."
Michael laughed, "I'm sure it's not good, if she told me not to watch." Sesshomaru found himself anticipating what she was going to do.
Suddenly, Lin started yelling for Kagome. The whole group took off running, coming around a bend they found Lin kneeling at the side of a female fox demon.
She had been severely injured and was crying. Lin's face bore rage, and she took off in the direction the demon pointed.
Sesshomaru followed behind her, worried about her reaction. He found her in a village, screaming in the headman's face.
In her arms was the fox demon kit, "How DARE you? What if I beat up one of your woman and take her child? All because, she's human? You ever THINK about this again and I'll tear your heart out."
She whirled around and almost into Sesshomaru, who stood there watching her every move. "Excuse me. This one needs to go back to her mother.", she stepped around him and kept on going.
Suddenly a male voice yells, "Woman, bring my pet back here now!"
Lin froze in mid stride, "What the FUCK did you just say?"
"I said, bring my pet back, unless you want to be my pet.", he threatened.
Sesshomaru stood by and watched, wanting to see what she would do.
Lin spun around and walked to Sesshomaru, handing him the pup, "Hold this, another asshole is loose."
She walked to the samurai warrior standing there, and looked him in the eye. "Little boy, I would suggest you just leave this alone. I will make you my pet. Now do you want that humiliation?", her voice ice.
The samurai reached for his sword, and fast as lightening, Lin's hand shot out. Shaped into a claw she jammed her nails into his throat, digging her nails in, she squeezed, smashing his trachea.
Instantly, he fell to his knees struggling to breath. Lin stood over him, eyes ice, "Anyone else?"
Not one soul moved. She looked around, "Just so you know I am a human, and if any wish vengeance. Tell them I said come on."
She turned to Sesshomaru, and took the pup. Looking at him she said, "My world, my rules." Leaving him standing there staring at the now dead samurai.
"She didn't use her powers against them, but used her own strength.", Sesshomaru was amazed, she could have easily killed him with a few words.
"We must get closer to this one. She is surprising, she hates demons, but will save one from a life of servitude to a human.", his youkai said.
Sesshomaru silently agreed. He turned and followed her back to the others. He could hear her cooing to the pup, telling her she was ok, and that she was taking her back to her Mommy.
Kagome had just finished tending to the Mother's wounds when Lin walked to them with the baby. She gave her a huge smile and handed her the pup, "I believe this is yours."
The fox demon burst into tears and hugged her pup tight, "Thank you, I owe you a life debt."
"No, you owe me nothing. Just raise her to be an honorable person and you will fulfill any debt you have to me.", Lin answered her.
It was decided they would find a spot to spend the night close, so the fox demon would have time to heal.
As they set up camp and foraged for their evening meal, Michael spoke with Sesshomaru. "I know you don't understand her motives. She is driven by the need to protect anything weaker than her. She hates all races equally, so the only outlet for her miko powers is the weak ones. So, if you are weak she will protect, it doesn't matter who you are.", he explained.
Sesshomaru looked at Michael, "You do know she doesn't want to do the rite? I asked her today, and she brushed me off."
"I saw that, I don't know what to say to get her to do it.", he answered.
They sat in silence, then Sesshomaru looked at Michael, "This Sesshomaru knows what to do. My father asked a favor of me, which was to possess my body to tell Lin goodbye. I will allow this, because he said he could get her to do it. I would ask that you not let them alone, I fear my father would take it farther than I would like."
Michael laughed, "Knowing Touga's reputation, I will act as chaperone for you. If, you are sure this would help."
"She trusts him, if he encourages her, she will.", Sesshomaru answered.
"Anything is worth a try.", he shrugged.
"This Sesshomaru will go to one who will help to achieve this, I will return in a few hours.", and created an energy ball, flying off like a shot.
The rest of the afternoon passed quietly and without incident, except the women. They kept whispering to each other and giggling. Michael knew they planned something and wondered what it was.
What he didn't know was that all hell was about to break loose.
The women had been talking and planning the torment of Miroku, when Lin asked Kagome if she would be going home soon.
"Why, Lin? Did you need something?", Kagome asked.
Lin grinned, "I would give eyeteeth for some tampons. I used to bitch about them, but would kill for them now. I'm due in about a week or so."
Kagome burst into laughter, "Sure, I will bring some back and chocolate as well."
All the women rolled their eyes and moaned.
"Well ladies. what is it that could cause such a look of ecstasy on your lovely faces?", Miroku asked as he walked over to them.
"Just something that is very close to a woman's heart. She loves to have it anytime and anyplace.", Lin's voice purred, and her eyes glazed over.
Miroku smiled, "What would that be, my dear?" Feeling himself get excited at the prospect of bedding such a beauty.
"That would be CHOCOLATE, sweetie.", Lin's smile was evil.
Miroku's face fell, and everyone burst into laughter. That was the scene that Sesshomaru/Touga found when he returned.
Silently he appeared and sat down beside Michael. He looked at the angel and nodded, then over to Lin. His heart leapt at her, he couldn't wait to reveal himself to her.
He knew that Michael was to keep them apart, but Touga knew he could get around that. The breezed carried her scent to him, and he caught the heat odor on it. "Perfect timing.", he thought.
He pulled his eyes from her, knowing the others would notice him staring. Inuyasha knew of his plan and asked him not to get angry at Lin. He realized all the memories they would make together, Sesshomaru would share.
He also, knew that Sesshomaru was having emotional responses to her. That coupled with those memories and the little surprise he was planning, would bring Sesshomaru around to his way of thinking.
It was odd that he could see into his son's mind and his memories. He only sifted through those containing Lin and none other, feeling he should not delve into his son's privacy. He just wanted to see what Sesshomaru truly thought of her.
Touga noticed that the women were off alone, and realized Lin was up to something. He watched as she walked to her backpack and rummaged through it, pulling out a small silver box. Attached to it was a long, extremely thin rope with buttons on the ends.
Curious, he watched her put the buttons in her ears and touch the silver box. She smiled at it, and began moving around as if to a beat. He noticed the one named, Sophia, get up and tap her on the shoulder.
Lin pulled one of the buttons from her ear, and Sophia put it in her ear. Then both started gyrating around. He could stand it no longer, "What are you doing?"
Kagome smiled at him, "Sesshomaru-sama, they are dancing. The little buttons in their ears are playing music, which they can hear, but we can't."
"It's unladylike, you shouldn't dance like that.", he announced.
Lin stopped dead and stared at him. "When did you become my Father?", she demanded.
"I'm stating the obvious, your "dance" is unacceptable and you need to stop.", the order was unmistakable.
"My dance is perfectly acceptable, where I'm from, and no I won't stop.", she ground out.
"As your protector, I'm telling you to discontinue this behavior now.", his voice was low and angry.
She whirled on him, murder in her eyes. "Look I agreed to play along with this farce, but I will not bow to your every wish. If I feel like dancing with Sophia I will, if I decide to give Miroku a lap dance I will and you won't stop me.", she ground out.
"What's a "lap dance"?", Miroku asked.
"Why don't I show you?", Lin asked sweetly.
Kagome gasped, "No, Lin, you can't. Sesshomaru........."
"Don't worry, Sesshomaru won't.", she grinned.
Kagome shot a look to Sophia, "Stop her." Sophia shook her head and shrugged, she knew it was past that point.
Lin grabbed Miroku's hand and led him to a rock. She sat him down and said, "Now, the thing with a lap dance is that you keep your hands off me. All you are permitted to do is watch. Think you could handle that?"
MIroku nodded and then sat on his hands. He had the feeling this was going to be worth this.
She put the earphones back in and then straddled Miroku's lap. Gyrating her hips suggestively, almost, but not quite grinding against him.
Lin was amused, Miroku was turning beet red and she knew this was getting to him. She grinned down at him, opening her mouth to speak, she felt a muscled arm grab her around the waist and then, she was air born.
"Put me down you asshole. What do you think you are doing?", she demanded.
Her only answer was a deep throated growl and silence. Both demons were livid, although Sesshomaru could only observe, Touga would punish her.
Back at camp, Kagome was upset, and crying. Michael had already gone off in search of them, and Inuyasha resolutely refused to help.
When Kagome asked why he would only say he promised someone important to him, and that he couldn't help.
