Not so weak Ch.3
Last time:
We all headed north, to where another chunk of the jewel rested...
Now:
We were walking for two weeks now, and no sign of the jewel shards, but I could feel the tingle in my bones.. They were near..
We came to what looked like an abandoned tomb. My senses told me it was in there. We walked down the dusty stairway. As we descended we started to hear merry laughter and goblets clinking.
We had stumbled upon a smugglers' lair.
"Its no good to fight them we're outnumbered. We could never get the jewel shards from them when they all are awake. We should wait until they all slumber, it would be for the best" Akira said wisely, her eyes revealing what she said was true. We all nodded. Little did we know a little boy heard our plan and set off to tell his leader.
That Night
We crept down the seamlessly never ending stairway. We heard a noise, then paused, holding our breath. There was someone walking up the stairs, coming right after us. Houshi-sama signaled us to run. We turned our heels, but then poison gas spilled out of a crack and all went black...
I was the first to awaken. I saw a beautiful wolf demon standing in front of me. She had long, red hair that went to her knees. She had a sweat band on her forehead and she had tiny braids in random places. She had pointy ears and had ice blue eyes. She looked sorta similar to Ayame, but only in hair and eye color. She had one red stripe on her right cheek and two black ones on her left. She had a billowy white shirt, sort of like a pirates, and had skin tight leather pants with boots. She had a beautifully crafted sliver sword strapped on to her left hip. She had at least 1/5 of the jewel around her neck. It seemed she never discovered mine. Thank god for the concealing spell on the pouch
"Who are you?"
"I am Lakeetah, pirate queen of the northern wolf tribes.." She looked me up and down, "And you are?"
"I am Kagome"
"I've heard about you, you have a pretty honorable rep for a human.. Kouga seems smitten with you, but at least you can piss my arrogant sister off. Her name's Ayame, I know you guys got into a fight over Kouga. I bet though it was a one sided fight based on what a dolt Kouga isཀ" I was beginning to like Lakeetah very much. The only problem was that I was still tied up. Lakeetah obviously got the message and untied me and others.
A couple minutes later Akira awoke and looked at her surroundings. Her eyes finally landed on Lakeetah. She stood there and searched her soul. When she found what she wanted, she looked very pleased and smiled.
"So your finally awake?"
"Yeah... I'm Akir---"
Lakeetah cut her off "I know, Kagome over there told me. I'm Lakeetah, pirate queen of the northern wolf tribes."
Akira smiled warmly, "Really? I have heard of your travels, your heroic battles and kind-hearted deeds. You are a legend of the soul demons because your heart is as pure as a miko's, but never could be one because of your demon blood..."
Lakeetah blushed at all the compliments. I came up behind her and rested my arm on her shoulder.
"So.. The bad ass pirate queen has a pure heart... Kind deeds eh? Who knew ya had it in yaཀ I though pirate queens were supposed to be evilཀ"
She lightly hit me on my head, careful not to hurt me because of her demon strength.
"So, you guys are looking for the shikon shards to complete the jewel? I could give you mine, but what do you want with them?"
"We need to get them away from the half demon Naraku, he is the description of pure evil. He wants to collect them for only Kami knows what. It is also my duty as the jewel's rightful guardian to complete it and the little fact that I broke it..." I answered.
"We also all have something against him, and I don't know about Akira or Ryoshu, but he did some terrible things to us and other people. Miroku has a wind tunnel in his hand. He somehow got my brother, Kohaku, to kill everyone in my family including me. I survived, Kohaku was supposed to be dead, but that fucking bastard brought him back with a shikon shard. He also influenced me with one. Kagome just wants to fight him because he's after the jewel shards and he has hurt so many innocent people and destroyed their lives..." Sango had awoken most likely during our conversation.
"Hm.. This Naraku charcter seems like a real man bitchཀ (A/N what I call guys who are bitchy all the time ) I have nothing against him but, I guess I'll keep a look out for him."
"Sango, Sango... Noཀ Don't hit me.. Ouch... That hurt.." Houshi-sama mumbled in his sleep. His hand then went up to rub Sango's ass.
Slap
"Houshi-sama... When will you learn?"
"Ahh.. But Sango-samaཀ You are just too beautiful to resistཀ"
I sighed... Those two love each other, then the only matter is to get Sango to admit it.. I looked over at Akira, who was putting her brothers head in her lap and quietly stroking his hair. His eyes opened half way and looked at his surroundings as he got up from Akira's lap, and his eyes landed on Lakeetahand stared. Lakeetah felt the eyes following her, so she quickly spun around. She looked at Ryoshu with obvious interest. She then quickly turned away to look at some maps of the surrounding areas.
later
A boy about 15 walked through the one of the tomb's door and ran up to his sister, who was Lakeetah. He had short red hair with ice blue eyes. He had no facial markings.
"Onee-chanཀ There is an ambassador from a neighboring village. Can I negotiate this time?" He said with a plea in his eyes.
"Sure Hiroko-chan. But make reasonable choices.. Okay?"
"Of course Onee-chanཀ" He then walked out of the room.
"So that's your little brother?" I asked.
"Yeah, he's a brat but I love him all the same.." Lakeetah said love shining in her eyes.
"Aw, you didn't tell me that bad ass heart of yours has a light side..?" I said, eyes gleaming.
Lakeetah just smiled, "Hey, even a pirate queen has her soft sideཀ"
