"Kusou..."
Sesshoumaru's voice hardly rose to an audible level. He felt so weak, so tired...
He knew he should just go to sleep. But he wouldn't. Not as long as Aku still drew breath. He knew that if it came down to the wire, he would protect Ame, even if only on his adrenaline rush.
And then, utterly exhausted past anything he could imagine, he would fall where Akhor stood. What manner of sacrifice was that?
But for Ame...she showed compassion to me...she cared for me more than I care for myself. That is not something I wish to leave to die.

(((Gaaah! I sorry!! *Runs onto scene, being chased by four slacker signs of Chance's. Skids to a halt, slacker signs circle three times before grudgingly returning to their hostess*)))
Kratos growled in frustration. "Sesshomaru and Ame are there as well...and another. Do you think we should go, Kai? I...suppose it wouldn't matter, as Akhor would find us regardless. And I would never forgive myself if the harmed them when I could have stopped him, even if only by distracting him with myself..."

Kai sighed, "Yea, come on." He replied, stuffing his hands in his pockets.

Ame sighed and allowed Sesshoumaru to lean on her as she closed her eyes briefly. She could tell how exhausted he was. "You really need to rest now, Sesshoumaru... As I said, I can take care of Aku, at least... If necessary, Hiei can help with Akhor... But I can definitely take care of Aku..." she whispered.

Kratos followed, nodding.
(((Skip to wall?)))

(((lol, sorry guys...Dad changed the password to get online so now I can't even attempt to sneak on at home.)))
(((That doesn't mean I won't be on then, though...My father's pretty lenient)))
(((And, yes, that means I'm grounded again.)))
"---What?!?" Kratos dashed past the gate out of the city, skidding a full three feet as he stopped in the snow. As they had neared the walls, Kratos had suddenly been able to sense individual powers...and Ame's and Sesshomaru's were fading fast.
"Akhor...Sesshomaru, Ame,!" his eyes widened as he saw what was going on.

"Welcome to the party Kratos." Akhor stated dryly, grinning slyly at the mercenary, his fangs now exposed.

Sesshoumaru's hazy senses picked up on Kratos's scent and aura.
"What...are you doing here...?" he wondered. "I...w-would not think...you would...bring y-yourself...anywhere near this draconic scum..."

"We'll explain later, Sesshoumaru..." If we get a chance... Kai rushed in beside Kratos and skidded to a halt, not liking the grin on Akhor's face.

((Ooh... Heheheh... *evil laughter* Time for Aku to try to control Kratos........ >3 Heheheh........ *rubbing hands together evilly*))
Aku paused slightly, having soared into the air. Her crimson eyes fell on Kratos and Kai, and she scowled. 'The mercenary... Kratos... Aurion?' she thought, hovering for a moment. 'What is he doing here? Oh, well... Perhaps he can... 'help' me destroy the dragon...' She grinned evilly, exposing her over-long fangs as she dove at Kratos with blinding speed, aiming her razor-sharp claws at his chest...

But Akhor wouldn't allow it. He was just as fast as Aku and jumped in front of Kratos. He held up his arm, which looked greyish blue. Her claws dug into it, and he shoved out at her, pushing her away. The color around his arm cracked, and fell to the ground. "Sorry, he's already taken." Akhor stated cooly, glaring at Aku.

Aku snarled as she crashed to the ground, folding her wings swiftly around her body so they wouldn't be damaged. "Damn you, dragon!" she growled angrily, her crimson eyes flicking all over the place. She didn't dare try to control the vertically-challenged fire demon; from what she had seen, she would have a h3ll of a time entering his mind, if she could even catch him in the first place.
((Yeah, news flash, folks: Only I am allowed to mention Hiei's shortness. 'Kay? Cuz I have Retsu on my side, so he won't kill me. He will, however, kill anyone else who mentions his height, got it? *sweatdrop* Don't blame me, guys... *points over at Hiei* He said it, not me... T.T Don't kill me... *panics and runs away*))
