Toxic

Chapter 4 : Fly Me To The Moon

 

 

Sango's bright brown orbs scanned the forest eagerly to see the face she longed for. The lust to see him within her grew strong. She felt her heart pounding in her chest. Why did she wish to see this demon? To kill him for what he had done? Or did another emotion suddenly rise up from a forgotten…and lonely place deep within her beating heart?

 

Ba-boom. Ba-boom.

 

Her hand tightened around Kirara's long soft mane of fur. Kirara suddenly stopped to sniff the ground. Sango held her breath waiting but Kirara picked her head up and went further still catching no scent of the taiyoukai.

 

Ba-boom. Ba-boom.

 

Sango heard the heartbeat pounding within her own head.

`Be still…' she scolded it. But she couldn't help it. She couldn't help but seek out the truth that lied within her. Why was she doing this? She could've just stopped. Was it love she saw within that cold blooded beast? Was is hate and she just wanted revenge?

 

She sighed and held a even more tighter. She didn't even know herself. She didn't know her feelings. Ever since Kohaku had been away from her…she had always seemed alone. Forgotten. Broken…

 

Kirara stopped once more to sniff the ground. Her head perked up in alert and sniffed the air. Sango gasped silently.

 

“Do you smell something, girl?” she questioned the flaming cat.

 

Kirara grunted quietly in return and started running toward the new scent. The violent wind at Sango's beautiful face seemed refreshing. It knocked out her light brown hair from it's usual binding but Sango didn't seem to care about her loose hair. She just wanted to see him again.

 

Ba-boom! Ba-boom!

 

The night sky flew over them. Like they were in some sort of beautiful dream…that never ended. Kirara's powerful paws pounded against the dirt-stained path. The grass whistled from the wind she created as she flew by like a silent shadow in the night. Sango's expression stayed determined.

“Jaken-sama!! Look, I caught one!!” Rin cried excitedly. She held her hands together and went over in the grass more before sitting down. She drew her cute little face close to her closed hands and opened them slightly. The faint bright glow of a firefly lurked within her warm palms.

 

Rin grinned satisfied at her catch. She then uncapped her hands freeing the firefly. “There you go little firefly!” she waved after it cutely.

 

Jaken only sighed at her human-like behavior. He rolled his big yellowish eyes and walked over to Sesshoumaru. Sesshoumaru sat in his normal pose, over by a bank. His hands grasped the rope that held the dragon steed. His golden gaze remained unmovingly at the night sky. The wind picked up a bit. A sweet familiar scent flooded his nostrils. He turned slightly.

 

`That human wench…what could she be doing back? I thought I had finished her for good on our last encounter.' He thought making his expression into a cold serious look.

Kirara jumped up high and landed into the meadow. She shook the tree branches that clung onto her fur and glared toward Sesshoumaru giving a small hiss. Grasshoppers and fireflies scattered everywhere. Sango jumped skillfully off of Kirara's back and landed onto the ground. She held her boomerang behind her back. Her battle armor seemed to be renewed. Her hair was carried with the wind. She quickly tied it back up with a spare ty. Her soft brown eyes seemed to glow through the night like a powerful light.

 

Jaken jumped. Sango's appearance on a huge flaming niko demon had scared the life out of him and he found himself clinging onto Sesshoumaru's pant leg. Rin only stared in awe and wide eyed. Sesshoumaru had already gotten up before the Taijiya had even arrived. He gave her a cold glare.

 

“Women…what do you want?” Sesshoumaru demanded a bit irritated.

 

Sango's eyes locked into his gold ones. She knew her eyes told him everything. She hadn't known why she came here…she had only followed her heart. Her destiny…but she couldn't be the fool. She couldn't just say she didn't know. She closed her eyes.

 

 

“I've come…to settle something…lord Sesshoumaru.” Sango said rather politely.

 

Sesshoumaru seemed to be the only one aware that Sango had just called him “lord”. Jaken and Rin still stared as though she was the most amazing thing that entered they're lives.

 

Rin got up somewhat excitedly. “A real demon exterminator…?” she questioned with a slight tilt of the head. “But she seems so kind…” Rin gasped slightly and then ran in front of Sesshoumaru.

 

“Please don't hurt lord Sesshoumaru!!” she cried.

 

Sango was a bit touched by this. Her heart clenched slightly. Sesshoumaru did have a warm heart…to have a little girl on his side. The little girl they called Rin seemed to remind her of Kohaku in a way. Sango's eyes shimmered and reflected off the moonlight. She then put on a smile that could purify evil.

 

“Of course I won't…I would just like a word…if I may.” She said. Rin smiled to approve of it. Jaken ran over and scolded Rin from Sango's hearing and Rin followed him.

 

“Jaken! Take Rin and go.” Sesshoumaru ordered.

 

Jaken perked his head up. “But m'lord…” he started. Sesshoumaru gave the imp a death glare and Jaken gulped. “Come on Rin…” Jaken said leading away from Sango and Sesshoumaru.

 

Both fell silent once they left. The only sound was the hissing of the winds and Sango's beating heart. She took in a breath lightly getting a bit nervous.

 

Sesshoumaru hadn't taken his eyes off of her ever since she had appeared. “What did you wish to discuss with me?” he demanded.

 

Sango blinked and looked to him a bit startled by his words. Sango choked on her words a bit and cleared her throat. She lowered her boomerang slightly.

 

“I…I won't forgive you for what you've done to me. However fighting isn't the answer to this. But somehow I'll make you pay.” Sango said. Something didn't sound right about that. Normally Sango would've gotten revenge. But she couldn't hurt him. She even avoided eye contact with him when she said that.

 

Sesshoumaru was silent. He remained glared at her then stepped forward. His sudden movement made her look up. Sesshoumaru parted his lips about to say something but suddenly a huge snake demon shot up from the ground.

 

Kirara growled and flung back startled a bit. Sango stared up at the creature. Her mind raced for a moment then she grabbed her large boomerang and sprung at the beast.

 

“Hiraikotsu!” her voice seemed to echo as it slashed the snake through the middle. The snake gave one pathedic hiss before falling lifelessly to the ground. Sango gracefully landed catching the boomerang without even glancing up. She stared to Sesshoumaru for approval.

 

Sesshoumaru seemed uncaring on the outside but on the inside he had never seen such skill from just one human girl. She was indeed worthy…precious. Sesshoumaru admired the human for a moment. He saw something beautiful. Something that seemed to melt the ice around his heart. A fire? A light? Who was this girl? What was she? Whatever she was…she burned so brightly. Showing off her true beautiful nature.

 

Sesshoumaru watched Sango. She looked like a goddess of the world walking so gracefully with the fireflies flowing slowly about seeming to surround her.

 

Sango opened her mouth to say something when suddenly another rumbling came. A huge reptile-type creature emerged from the woods, knocking down trees just with it's presence. It stood on hoofs, had orange firey eyes that mostly remained shut, and invincible green scales covered it's enormous body. It teeth were longer and sharper than anything but it's even longer and sharper claws. It stared to Sango and licked it's lips smelling and seeing the tasty human meal. It seemed to pay no attention nor think of Sesshoumaru as a threat. It shut it's eyes and roared loudly, shaking the ground.

 

It ran at Sango with extreme speed despite it's large size. Sango went to run the other way but the beast jumped and before Sango knew was facing it's drooling mouth. It's blood stained lips parted and formed a smirk. It ran a huge purple tongue over it's teeth. Sango threw her boomerang at the beast but it merely bounced off.

 

“It's scales….” Sango murmured.

 

The beast's large long tail with the long sharp spikes running down suddenly swished at Sango. Sango turned and gasped. Her scream seemed to be caught in her throat. Sango closed her eyes. Her life flashing before her very eyes…and Kohaku. Kohaku still in her mind. But wait…she was still breathing. Sango opened her eyes to find herself staring down at the beast. She was in a warm protective strong grasp. She looked up to Sesshoumaru.

 

Sesshoumaru landed gracefully, gently setting Sango down in a safe spot in the forest. His body seemed to pin her's down. His lips brushed up against her earlobe sending a small shiver down her spine.

 

“Stay here…it's too dangerous for a human like yourself.” He whispered. Sango blinked and she watched as he went out onto the battle field facing the beast. Sango put a hand to her heart.

 

“Be careful…” she whispered.

 

A sudden warm nuzzling was at her side. She turned to see Kirara trying to comfort her a bit.

 

“What am I doing here? I should be out there…helping…him.” She smiled at the thought of his name. She grabbed ahold of some of Kirara's fur and gently assisted herself up. She grabbed her boomerang.

 

Sesshoumaru drew Tokijin from it's sword sheath.

 

“Demon…leave now. Or face death.” Sesshoumaru glared at the beast. The beast only roared and licked it's drooling lips once more.

 

Sesshoumaru jumped onto the beast's shoulder and started slashing his sword skillfully at it. It didn't even seem to scar him. Not even loosen a scale. The beast opened one eye glaring at Sesshoumaru. It then closed it and used one of it's claws to break through Sesshoumaru's armor and go right through him.

 

Sesshoumaru gaped a bit. His eyes widened. The removed it's one claw from Sesshoumaru's stomach quickly then knocked him off with it's tail. Sesshoumaru moved to get up but the beast clamped a paw over Sesshoumaru.

 

It opened it's jaws wide longing to taste Sesshoumaru's demon flesh. So it could grow stronger…
