Wailing toads makes it fun

"Dude, chill." The human chuckled uneasily at the bug eyed look the little toad gave him. The demon studied human as he easily joked around with the lower class imp demon, no disgust or even fear clouding his unique and clean scent. "So, what exactly was your plan?" Rumi finally stopped jesting and connected eyes with the full demon.

Sesshomaru pondered the other's question. "I have don't have to explain myself to a lowly human, such as yourself."

Rumi pursed his lips. Why are all the hot ones always such assholes? Rumi huffed and plopped himself right on the ground, crossing his arms and pouting slightly. Sesshomaru was astonished by the fact the human male before him didn't fear him, even a little bit. In fact, it was like he was actually comfortable in his presence. The boy didn't even flinch when the full demon flared his yokai to intimidate him. In response, the human let his reiki unravel from his body to encase the demon's yet didn't harm him like he knew he could. "So," the human drawled as his bicolored eyes peaked up at the imposing dog demon through his long, dark lashes. "Come here often?"

Jaken have had enough with this human talking to his master so casually. He began to screech angrily. "The disrespect that you have shown my lord will be punished by death! Prepare yourself, you wrenched human!" the tiny demon waved his staff around as he propelled himself forward toward the still relaxed human. What an easy target! Lord Sesshomaru will praise me once I get rid of this annoyance! Jaken squealed in delight at the thought and swung his staff down, aiming for the male's unprotected head.

"Hah?" Rumi effortlessly caught the staff, snickering when the tiny thing fruitlessly tried to tug it out of his grasp while spewing out insults and promises of death. "It was just a casual conversation, man. No need to get your warts all in a knot." The boy swiftly got to his feet still holding the staff, letting the imp dangle and flail about.

"I AM NOT A TOAD!"

Rumi laughed as he jerked the staff, sending the green demon into the air. Then he kept hitting the imp to keep him in the air, highly entertaining the young lord that watched on in silence. "Whatever floats your boat. So, why are you looking for your father's tomb? Gonna pay your respects?"

"Why would I pay my respects to the dead?" Sesshomaru finally answered straightforwardly, eyes bouncing with Jaken's battered body flying into the air. "They are dead."

"Guess it's just a human thing," he mused as he finally grew bored with hitting Jaken. While the tiny body was still suspended in the air, Rumi gathered his reiki and channeled it into the staff while cocking it back like a baseball bat. Then he swung as Jaken descended and sent him flying with a painful screech. The green demon zipped past Sesshomaru, who sidestepped to avoid getting hit, and crashed into the overly large oni that had remained still behind Sesshomaru, awaiting orders. Once Jaken collided with the red giant, the reiki transferred from the smaller demon to it. Rumi smirked and increased the reiki to reduce the large demon into ashes, causing Sesshomaru to study him with interest.

"Inuyasha!"

"You bastard, how dare you make me think that thing was my mother!"

Both of the physically older males glanced over in mild surprise when Inuyasha and Kagome appeared out of thin air, scurrying to Rumi's side. The said male merely looked at the faceless body that laid prone on the ground. "That's rough, buddy."

"Rumi, where is the giant demon?" Kagome whispered as she gripped her cousin's shirt, shaking lightly.

"I killed him." He responded nonchalantly, smirking a bit while Inuyasha and Kagome gave him dumbfounded looks, tossing the staff away from himself.

Then the half demon gave his attention back to his brother. Sesshomaru blinked slowly as he regathered himself. "Did you not like my little joke, brother?" he inquired sarcastically.
