Dream Cycle
Where am I? Dylinn thought.
Dilynn, two voices called her name. one of them was vaguely familiar. The other she didn’t know at all. Dilynn, the voices echoed once again.
Who’s there? She asked a little frightened. She was alone in a field of tall grass that billowed in a gentle breeze. The sky overhead was a cloudless perfect blue.
Dilynn, this time the voices were much closer. Suddenly two figures appeared before her. One was a tall woman with beautiful silver hair and golden highlights that cascaded down to below her knees. She was clothed in a gorgeous kimonos. The outer most one had a picture of a horse and inuyoukai mating ceremony. Her eyes were gold, flecked with silver, and held a twinkle of amusement in them. The other was--no it couldn’t be!
Granny? Dilynn breathed. How is it possible you’re alive? I thought you died five years ago in a car accident!
I did, she said softly. You are dreaming Dilynn. Iziyame and I have come to explain things to you. We do not have much time. You must listen carefully.
Granny! Dilynn exclaimed tearfully launching herself into her grandmother’s arms. I missed you so much.
And I you, Dilynn, but you must listen. You have a very important job.
Granny, Dilynn interrupted. Who is that woman?
The two women smiled softly at Dilynn. This, Granny said, is your many times great-grandmother: Lady Iziyame, or the original Lady of Dreams.
Oh! Dilynn realized just how important this woman this woman was. She disentangled herself from her grandmother and bowed deeply to the woman.
Iziyame smiled and reached over to pull the girl up from her bow. There is no need to bow to me like that. Right now your status difference to mine may demand such a thing, but it is only us here and I do not require it. Besides, in due time your status will be as high as mine, if not higher.
Dilynn smiled as she sat down beside her grandmother, leaning her head gently on her shoulder.
Iziyame sat across from them as she began to speak. Since you are here I can assume that Yamaro and Jibera have found you and given you Sakura--the gold and silver flute. Dilynn nodded. Well I must now explain your duty; you are currently the last of your kind--though it will not always be so--I regret that you will have no formal training. But know that your grandmother and I will visit you in your dreams to help you practice and to check up on you, but for the most part you will be on your own when it comes to learning how to control your abilities.
There is a great evil permeating the land. If it reaches our clans, the peace treaty will be forgotten and war will ensue once more. Our clans will be devastated and may not be able to rise from the ashes. As she said this, a silent tear rolled down her cheek to stain her beautiful kimono, leaving a tear streak on her fair face. You must not let it happen.
“Dilynn,” this time a different voice called her.
We must go now, Iziyame said standing.
Dilynn’s grandmother followed suit with Dilynn still clinging to her. No! Please, Granny, don’t go! I miss you! I don’t want you to go! Please don’t leave me! Please! Dilynn wept as her grandmother hugged her once more before gently pushing her away.
I am sorry, little one, I must go now, she said softly.
“Dilynn,” this time the voice was louder, it sounded so familiar--yet she couldn’t place it. “Dilynn!” the voice almost shouted, it sounded worried and scared.
I’m so alone, Granny, I just want someone to love me!
But there is one who will love you, Dilynn. He is calling for you, waiting for you, needing you to open his heart. But he is afraid of rejection and a broken heart. Go to him, Dilynn. He will love you, her grandmother said as the two women started to fade.
Wait, who is the evil I’m supposed to defeat? Dilynn called to the fading figures.
A word whispered on the wind reached her ears, Naraku.
“Dilynn!” the voice was frantic this time. She closed her eyes.
End Dream Cycle
“Dilynn!” the voice was soft yet frantic, the only reason she heard it was because it was right beside her ear.
“Mmm,” she moaned as her eyes fluttered open to see Sesshomaru’s face framed by sunlight. Sunlight? That couldn’t be right. It was night. Wait, there was something wrong with his face. It looked--worried or scared. “What’s wrong?” she asked groggily.
She felt his arm tighten around her waist--wait a minute, waist? She looked around, realizing she was in his arms inside the trailer. His back was to the window which explained why his face was framed by sunlight. His arm tightening around her waist brought her attention back to him. “What is it?” she asked again.
This time he responded. “Are you alright?”
Dilynn nodded. “Ya, how long was I out for?”
“Almost an entire day,” he said softly.
Dilynn studied his face closely. He seemed relieved at her awakening. As she did so, she pulled away a little. Suddenly she remembered her dream, her duty, and her grandmother. At this rush of overwhelming memories and emotions, Dilynn launched herself back into Sesshomaru’s arms and cried her heart out until she fell asleep again. She was grateful he had removed his armor.
Sesshomaru felt a little disappointed when Dilynn began to pull away, but he was nearly overwhelmed with joy when she flung herself back into his arms. That is, until he noticed her cyring. He was confused, why had she started crying? Was it something he had done? Said? When he realized she had fallen asleep once again, he sighed slightly and wrapped his arms around her.
I hope she’s alright, he thought. She doesn’t smell sick…no infact she smells rather good…no shut up! We aren’t going there! She’s good protection for Rin…she smells like those blue flowers around her place, bluebonnets and…I don’t care what she smells like!…oh but you do…It doesn’t matter, she doesn’t like me like that…How do you know? She‘s traveling with you isn‘t she?…She’s doing it for Rin…Has she ever called you Lord or ‘-sama’?…No…Tell her!…No! I won’t--I don’t feel for her like that…Scaredy cat, err, dog, whatever and a liar, that‘s all you are. Sesshomaru hung his head as he realized his inner demon was right. He was a scaredy cat, err, dog, whatever and a liar--at least when it came to love.
He tightened his arms around her sleeping form. He would protect her; if only to protect his heart.
Kari and Casey giggled softly as they backed away from the trailer window.
“From all appearances it looks like Sesshomaru-sama is in love with our Dilynn,” Kari snickered. “He hasn’t let go of her since she collapsed last night.”
“Yeah, it looks the same way for Dilynn, too. She wouldn’t have gone back into his arms if she didn’t feel something for him. How romantic,” Casey sighed. “I wonder if they know about it.”
“Nah, if Dilynn knew, she would make a move,” Kari answered.
“If Sesshomaru-sama knew, he might make a move too,” Rin, who had been listening the whole time, piped up.
“Do what? What would Sesshomaru-sama do if he knew about what?” squaked an indignant Jake. He hated being left out of conversations, especially ones that involved his lord.
“Sesshomaru-sama would make a move on Dilynn if he knew they like each other--possible love,” Kari said. “Or vice-versa.”
“No way!” Jaken said. “He doesn’t care for filthy humans! Especially like that!”
Rin’s lower lip started quivering and her eyes began to tear up. “Does that mean Sesshomaru-sama doesn’t care for me?” she asked as she started to cry.
For his part, Sesshomaru hadn’t heard the conversation going on outside because he was so wrapped up in his own thoughts. When Rin’s crying reached hes ears, though, he was quickly brought back to reality.
He couldn’t decide what to do. Should he go see what was wrong with her or should he stay here with Dilynn? He didn’t want to leave her incase she woke up and think he had abandoned her. But he didn’t want Rin to think of him as cold and cruel either. What should I do? Could I do both? Why not? What harm could it do?
Having decided that thas was the best course of action, he stood up, readjusted Dilynn in his arms, walked over to the the trailer door and opened it.
Kari and Jaken were involved in a shouting match, Casey was busy trying to comfort Rin, and the animals were just laying around the clearing watching the scene unfold.
Annie and Valentine were the first to notice Sesshomaru holding Dilynn and standing on the trailer step. Once they did they cam up to his side, gently wagging their taile and whining low as if to ask if their mistress was allright.
“She is fine, merely exhausted from her ordeal,” Sesshomaru said to the dogs who just nodded. (A/N: my dog nods!)
At his voice Kari and Jaken stopped their squabbling and Casey looked up from a still sobbing Rin.
“Lord Sesshomaru, Jaken made Rin cry by saying you don’t care about her!” Casey said, “And now she won’t stop crying.”
“Jaken?” Sesshomaru questioned with a raised eyebrow.
“B-b-but, M’lord, these foolish humans were saying that you liked the pathetic wench-” he started but was cut off by a growl from the Taiyoukai. It was then that he noticed Sesshomaru still holding Dilynn in his arms.
The others noticed too, all except for Rin who was still crying. Once more, Sesshamoru was confused. How was he supposed to comfort Rin and not let go of Dilynn at the same time?
He thought of something. Going over to the other side of the camp, Sesshomaru sat down carefully, adjusted Dilynn to lean against his right sided, and called to rin, “Come here, Rin.” His voice was warm and soothing like it always was when he talked to the child.
“Coming Sesshomaru-sama,” Rin sniffed. She went over to the Taiyoukai and sat down beside him. “Sesshomaru-sama, Jaken said you hated all humans including me,”the girl said nearly crying again.
Sesshomaru put his hand on her head and sent his infamous Death Glare at Jaken. Upon receiving The Glare, Jaken ran sobbing for his life.
Kari and Casey were nearly sent into a fit of giggles at the new development in Jaken-intelligence.
Sesshomaru looked back at Rin, “Jaken lies, Rin. I do not hate all humans and I do not hate you,” the Taiyoukai said softly. “ If I hated all humans do you think I would let you, Dilynn, or her friends travel with me?”
Kari and Casey gave a slight “Hmph!” at merely being referred to as “Dilynn’s friends” but at least it was better that “fool” or “wench” which were Jaken’s favorite names for them. They also noticed that Sesshomaru was still holding Dilynn-who was dead to the world- while he talked to the child.
Rin was pleased- Lord Sesshomaru did care for her!
“Now it is time we set back on the road. We have lost much time due to the youkai,” Sesshomaru said. “Jaken, ready, Ah-Un and Dilynn’s horses. We leave as soon as preperations are complete. Leave off her horse so she may ride once she wakes.”
“Yes, Milord. May I ask though, what will you do with the wench until she wakes up?” Jaken asked.
Sesshomaru growled threateningly at Jaken “You will address her properly, as should a servant to his lord or lady.”
“Y-y-yes, Milord! But of course Sesshomaru-sama!” Cried a frightened Jaken.
Kare and Casey were slightly taken aback by Sesshomaru’s tone but not nearly as much as by his defense of their cousin in the first place. They traded grins and each knew the other was thinking the same. All it will take is a little push in both directions.
As for Sesshomaru’s answer to Jaken’s question, he adjusted Dilynn in his arms and stood up.
Jaken and the girls quickly did as they were told and soon they were on the road again.
Two hours later, Dilynn stirred. Where am I? she thought. She realized she was moving up and down at a steady rhythm. Looking up she looked into Sesshomaru’s eyes. That’s when she realized she was still in his arms!
“Eeep!” She squeaked a little indignately. “ Let me down!” She commanded as she tried to wriggle out of his arms.
When Sesshomaru noticed her start to stir, he ignored it and kept walking. Deep down he hoped she would pretend to be asleep so he could continue to hold her.
When she demanded to be released, he held her tighter and sighed internally. So much for that idea, he thought.
Before Sesshomaru could get her horse, though, there was a noise in the bushes. Suddenly, out popped a demon that looked a lot like Sesshomaru, along with two girls and a young man. There was a Kitsune Kit on one of the girl’s shoulders and a two-tailed cat on the other girl’s shoulder. The demon and the girl with the Kitsune Kit were arguing about something.
Suddenly Dilynn noticed the demon had dog ears! Oh, how cute! I want to touch them! she thought. As she moved to get out of Sesshomaru’s arms though he growled low and held her tighter. He doesn’t look like he is about to let me down. Oh well…she thought and snuggled closer to him-much to Sesshomaru’s hidden delight- and sighed happily.
At the sound of her sigh, the two who were quarreling looked up.
“What the hell? Sesshomaru what are you doing? I thought you hated humans! Why are you traveling with them and holding one in your arms?” the dog-eared boy yelled.
“Who are you to question what he does?” Dilynn snapped back. “From the looks of it you’re a hanyou. So whats it to a hanyou if a taiyoukai holds me in his arms?”
“Shut up, wench. I’ll ask him what I want. He is my brother after all,” he saide smiling mischievously.
Dilynn heard the collective gasp from Kari and Casey. His brother, eh? Dilynn thought. She gazed up at Sesshomaru.
“Half brother,” he growled. Ouch though Dilynn wincing.
“If you really are his half-brother, then you must be Inuyasha,” Dilynn said. She noticed half of a large jewel hanging around the young woman with the Kitsune Kit’s neck. “And you must be Inuyasha’s miko am I right?”
Inuyasha and the others stood there, dumbfounded. How did she know about Inuyasha and Kagome?
Then Diylnn’s words sunk in and Inuyashe and Kagome blushed at the possesive phrase Dilynn used. Kagome blushed in anger.
“I’m not his miko! I don’t belong to anybody except my self! And my name is Kagome, Ka-go-me!” she yelled.
“Hey what are you saying, Kagome? Of course you belong to me! You’re my Kagome! Got that! Mine!” Inuyasha said flattening his ears immediately afterwards-he knew what was coming next.
Kagome smiled a sickly sweet smile. “Inuyasha,” she said hauntingly. Shippo was laughing.
“No wait, Kagome! I’m sorry please forgive me! Please don’t say it! Please!” Inuyasha begged.
“Fine, just don’t do it again,” Kagome said.
“So, Sesshomaru, who’s the wench?” Inuyasha asked, and with that the dog fight began.
Sesshomaru put Dilynn down drew Toukijin and advanced on Inuyasha. Inuyasha drew Tessaiga and blocked Sesshomaru’s attack.
As the fight progressed Sesshomaru’s group cheered him on, and Inuyasha’s friends just watched.
Soon, Inuyasha’s friends began to cheer him on.
“Kill that bastard, Inuyasha! Kill ‘em good!” Kagome screamed. Miroku, Songo, Shippo, and Kirara just stared at her.
“What did you say?” Dilynn growled, advancing on Kagome. “Did you just tell Inu-baka to kill Sesshomaru? Did you just call Sesshomaru a bastard?” she raged. “If anyone here is a bastard it’s your hanyou. Jaken told me about him, yes that’s definitely what your dog is!”
“Say, Sesshomaru, how’d you get your arm back?” Inuyasha asked as they locked swords.
Sesshomaru smiled his cold smile, “Why, didn’t she tell you?”
“Who?” Inuyasha asked as he dodged Sesshomaru’s blade.
“Why your miko of course. She came to me one night after she found you with that abominable clay pot Kikyou and slept at my fire. In return she healed my arm and I gave her my word I would never kill her. I care not if someone else kills her but I won’t,” Sesshomaru explained as he swiped at Inuyasha.
“You lie! Wind Scar!” he yelled as he looked at Kagome. Sesshomaru laughed mirthlessly and easily dodged the attack.
Kagome had her head hung down and tears were pouring from her eyes. Everyone was staring at her. “I’m sorry,” she whispered.
For some reason the thought of Kagome touching Sesshomaru--our Sesshomaru, a voice in her head said--drove Dilynn over the edge.
Relax, that voice said, we’ll get her together…Who are you? Dilynn thought. I’m your youkai half--now relax.
Dilynn did as she was told. Suddenly she and her aura began to change. Her aura turned darker and very angry. Dilynn’s face begane to elongate, her nails grew into claws, hands into paws until where she once stood was a giant strawberry-blond dog.
“What happened?” Dilynn said in Japanese.
“You have released your true form,” Sesshomaru said, throwing Inuyasha to the ground.
“Cool!” Dilynn said, she then remembered how angry she was at Kagome but decided to forget about it--the miko was only human--and instead turned on Inuyasha.
“You!” she howled, “You just tried to kill Sesshomaru didn’t you? How dare you!” and turned to look for a now fleeing Inuyasha.
“This will be fun,” Sesshomaru said. “Jaken, look after Rin and the others.”
“Yes, Milord!”
Sesshomaru turned around and he too revealed his true form.
“Is that what you really look like?” Dilynn barked.
“Hai, now let us go after my worthless half-brother,” he said.
Dilynn howled with joy causing shivers to run down the spines of those in the small clearing. The howl made Inuyasha stop and look back.
“Oh crap! Sesshomaru is in his true form as well? Oh crap! Oh crap! Oh crap!”
Sesshomaru joined Dilynn at her side. He was taller than her, but not by much.
“Let’s go!” Dilynn yipped and the two dogs turned and gave Inuyasha a run for his life.
“Hurry, Miroku! Use your Wind Tunnel and suck them up! Sango, please use Hiraikotsu and knock them out! Someone do something, please. Save Inuyasha!” Kagome begged tearfully.
“Kagome--where are your bow and arrows?” Sango asked.
Kagome looked down sheepishly. “I left them at Kaede’s. I completely forgot to bring them,” she mumbled.
“All right then, Wind Tunnel!” Miroku shouted.
Kari and Casey stood in shock--that was Dilynn’s true form? “Awesome!” they said together. Then they noticed Miroku sucking everything up.
“What are we gonna do?” Kari cried.
“I know, we’ll do this…” Casey whispered her plan into Kari’s ear.
“Where’d you come up with that?” Kari screeched.
“It’s based on what Jaken said,” Casey shrugged. “Now let’s go!”
They ran inside the trailer and quickly came back out dressed in Daisy Dukes and low cut spagghetti strap shirts.
They walked over to Miroku.
“Monk,” they whispered seductively. “Monk, will you please help us bear children?”
Miroku quickly closed his wind tunnel and nearly jumped for joy at this prospect.
“I want a little girl with your hair,” Kari said loosing the monk’s hair and running her fingers through it.
“I want a little boy with your eyes,” Casey cooed as she traced his eyes.
Miroku fainted dead away. He just couldn’t handle the joy.
“Grrr…” Sango said. The two young women turned to face a seriously ticked demonslayer and a deep red Kagome who covered Shippo’s eyes.
“Hey, chill out! It’s not like we would have slept with him! We aren’t loose moral women,” Kari said.
“Ya, I mean that would be seriously pathetic for us to sleep with him,” Casey agreed.
“What did you say?” Kagome and Sango yelled together.
“You heard us!” the other two said. “Pathetic! Pa-the-tic!”
And with that two cat fights began. Sango dropped her sword and Haricots (A/N: she dressed for battle) and lunged for Kari. Kagome put Shippo down and lunged for Casey.
Kagome faired better in the fight than Sango--who wasn’t use to catfights--did, but she was still getting the worse part of it.
Kari rolled Sango onto her back and punched her in the face, bloodying her nose. Casey--who was pinned beneath Kagome--reached up and yanked hard on Kagome’s hair cause her to pitch forward. This allowed Casey to get her legs underneath Kagome and throw her off. She rolled over and scrambled to the girl and sat on her, pinning Kagome’s wrists to the ground with her hands and Kagome’s legs with her own.
“Get off me!” Kagome screamed as she bucked underneath Casey.
“No! Not until Lord Sesshomaru and Dilynn come back. Maybe not even then!” Casey yelled back.
“Come on Kagome--you can get her off you! You can do it!” Shippo cheared and Kirara mewed her agreement.
Kagome leaned over and bit down on Casey--hard. She felt something run down the side of Casey’s arm and tasted copper--she had broken the skin.
“Aaah!” Casey screamed in agony and rolled off Kagome, clutching her arm. Immediately Annie was on top of Kagome, growling viciously, her teeth around Kagome’s throat--ready to bite at the command. (A/N: I don’t hate Kagome or Sango. This is just some necessary drama. ;) )
Sango bucked forward and head butted Kari--knocking the girl unconscious. She threw her off her only to have Valentine on top of her--also growling viciously with her jaws around Sango’s neck.
Kirara transformed and roared in anger. She started to go after her mistress and Valentine before four horses stopped her.
At the start of the dog fight, Dilynn had released the horses from the trailer in case they need to quickly scatter.
Will, Match, Any, and Speed stood in front of Kirara--ready to defend Kari and Casey. Kirara tried to fly over them but they flew up to block her path. She whined nervously at Sango.
“It’s alright, Kirara,” Sango said. “I don’t think she’ll bite unless I do something.”
Sesshomaru and Dilynn chased Inuyasha through the woods and out into a tall grassy field where they lost sight of him. Dilynn began to cast about (sniff around) for him.
Inuyasha sheathed Tessaiga so it wouldn’t reflect the sunlight and attract the dogs.
Suddenly the wind shifted and Dilynn smelled blood--Casey‘s.
She whimpered, “Sesshomaru, what should I do? Should I go see what’s wrong or find Inuyasha?” she asked in Dog.
“Let’s find Inuyasha. I know where he is,” Sesshomaru answered--aslo in Dog.
Dilynn cocked her head to one side and pricked her ears. “You knew? Then why didn’t you tell me?” she whined, a little miffed.
“I wanted to see how long it took you to find him. But since your friends may be in danger, I’ll find out another time,” he said as he walked over and nuzzled her neck in apology.
Dilynn licked his muzzle in thanks and forgiveness.
“He’s over there,” Sesshomaru pointed with his snout.
As Dilynn ran over to Inuyasha’s hiding spot, Sesshomaru heard and “Oh crap!” and saw Inuyasha jump into the air in an attempt to flee.
Stupid mistake, he thought as Dilynn lunged forward and grabbed Inuyasha by the back of his collar.
She came back with a mumbling Inuyasha dangling from her jaws and a delighted doggie grin spread across her face.
“You didn’t kill him?” Sesshomaru asked, shocked.
Dilynn shook her head vigorously--which also shook Inuyasha, making him dizzy--and replied in dog that she didn’t kill unless I was for food or self-defense.
Sesshomaru chuckled lightly--making Inuyasha’s jaw drop--turned and ran back to the small clearing. Dilynn followed close behind--Inuyasha, still grumbling, swinging from her jaws.
When the got back to the clearing, Sesshomaru stopped to let Dilynn go ahead of him. She stopped and put Inyasha down--pinning him to the ground with her paw.
As she looked around, Dilynn saw Kari unconscious and Casey holding her arm crying.
“Sesshomaru, will you please keep hold of Inuyasha for me?” Dilynn asked in Japanese. Sesshomaru nodded. He stepped up and placed his paw on top of Dilynn’s. She smiled and licked his muzzle--this time it was more like a kiss. This shocked Sesshomaru--did she like him?
“And don’t kill him,” Dilynn reminded him as she pulled her paw out from beneath his.
At the sound of Dilynn’s voice, everyone--except the animals--looked up to see Dilynn and Sesshomaru standing above them, looking at them.
Dilynn walked over to Casey and nuzzled her gently, “What’s wrong? What happened?” she aked in English.
Casey stopped her sobbing and explained what had happened after Dilynn and Sesshomaru left. When she came to the part about how they flirted with the still unconscious monk, Dilynn howled with laughter. It shook the entire forest and scared many flocks of birds away from their trees.
When she came to the part where Kagome bit her, Dilynn turned to the miko and growled savagely at her. If Annie hadn’t been on top of her, Kagome would have run for the well.
When Casey finished her story, she removed her hand from her arm to let Dilynn see the bite.
Dilynn whined when she saw it. The skin was turning black and a sickly purple and there were two perfect semi-circles where Kagome’s teeth had broken the skin, which was still bleeding freely.
“I’ll fix it in a little bit,” Dilynn reassured her cousin who was pale and sweating. “Where’s Kari?” she asked.
“Over there, on the other side of the the demon-slayer. The girl head-butted her and knocked her out. We both might be in big trouble if it hadn’t been for Annie, Valentine and the horses. When we got knocked off, the dogs jumped on top of them and pinned them better than we could have. Then the cat tried to go after the dogs and the horses stopped it,” Casey explained.
Dilynn nodded and walked over to Kari. The young woman lay sprawled on the ground where she had fallen. Dilynn nudged her gently, trying to wake her up. She succeeded and was rewarded with an ear-splitting scream when Kari first opened her eyes.
Dilynn whined and dropped to the ground to cover her ears while Sesshomaru simply growled.
Kari quickly recovered, “Oh, I’m so sorry! I didn’t recognize you at first. Are your ears okay?” she asked nervously.
Dilynn stood and shook her head vigorously, trying to get rid of the ringing in her ears. She grinned her delighted doggie grin. “It’s okay,” she said in English, “Are you okay? Casey told me what happened.”
“Ya, I’m fine. I just know I’ll have a killer headache later, though,” Kari smiled.
“Good ,” Dilynn nodded.
She turned to look at Annie and Valentine who still had Kagome and Sango pinned. This would be the perfect time to try out her mind-speak with the dogs and horses.
‘Thank you for defending them,’ she said to the dogs and horses. ‘You can let them go now. Sesshomaru and I won’t let any harm come to our pack now that we’re back.’
‘As you wish, My Lady’ said a soft feminine voice in her head. The two dogs backed off.
‘Which one of you said that?’ Dilynn asked, her head cocked to one side.
‘It was I, My Lady,’ Valentine said as she advanced toward the giant dog.
‘So that’s what you sound like!’ Dilynn exclaimed as she lay down on the ground to sniff noses with her two companions.
‘And this is what I sound like!’ said a younger voice that was slightly shrill and full of energy. Dilynn turned her head and looked at Annie who had her ears pricked and her tail wagging.
‘I figured it would be something like that,’ Dilynn laughed.
Sesshomaru watched the exchange between Dilynn and her cousin and the one between Dilynn and the dogs. He had nearly forgotten about Inuyasha when said hanyou began to struggle vainly trying to escape Sesshomaru’s paw.
Sesshomaru growled a warning and Inyasha quit struggling. He couldn’t reach Tessaiga, and without the sword his attacks were useless against Sesshomaru.
At Sesshomaru’s growl, Dilynn look over at him. She look at Inuyasha and the now stand and extremely frightened Kagome and smiled.

A/N: ooh! What will Dilynn do to Inuyasha? I’ll leave that up to you to decide! Send in your requests along with your reviews and I’ll pick the best one. P.s. I don’t hate Sango or Kagome, I just needed some drama and they were readly available. All will be made up for though! See ya next time! Remember no flames, and I apologize, this chapter got a little fanciful on me. I was writing it with my best friend at five thirty in the morning. See ya!
