Hello everyone, I can't believe it's my second story in the space of a month I'm shocked. Thank you to all those who reviewed to my previous story, once I had finished that one I was actually inspired to write this, so it's sorta like a sequel but the roles are reversed. I hope you all like it and I get many great reviews thanks
Warning: Angst and character death
Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha, wish I did though then my favourite couple would be together forever.
Pleases review
Enjoy
Last battle
Chapter One
Finally. After so many years and many battles, he had finally done it. Crimson blood soaked deeply into the ground as if the Earth itself had been split in two. A pair of golden orbs, once that held so much life and passion we now dull and lifeless.
Their battle had been grueling, difficult for the both of them. Both had inflicted and sustained sever wounds upon the other, but in the end only one could stand as victor.
A pale specter stood silently looking down; long silvery, white hair that would have made even the most beautiful female rage in jealousy, was now matter and clumped from sweat and blood. His clothes lay shredded on the ground around him; mokomoko lay at his feet, fur soaked in blood, but whose none could tell for their blood showed no difference.
Bakusaiga's blade once gleaming in the light was now dyed in crimson.
The blood of a half breed
The blood of his brother
Sesshoumaru stared impassively, golden eyes betrayed no emotion; the opposite on it's once counterpart who revealed all.
Tetsusaiga stood embedded into the ground a good few feet away, their fathers heirloom had been knocked away by Sesshoumaru before he landed the final blow.
It was bound to happen, he knew it as did Inuyasha
They'd both accepted it as part of their fate…
Fate as rivals
Fate as brothers
Hanyou and Youkai
Neither could recall
They couldn't remember the beginning only the ending.
Even during the time of peace when Inuyasha lived with his humans and Sesshoumaru came to visit his. The nods of greeting the humans were so ecstatic about believing them to be accepting each other, were actually nods of acceptance of their agreement.
An agreement made the moment they were birthed who they were. The first time they agreed upon something
The second, the time and place.
Both knew it would cause their human followers great deals of pain if they knew what the brothers planned on doing, so they waited. Waited until their humans were no longer there. They had comforted each other through their passing. An accidental bump of the shoulder here, or a brush of a and there. They grew closer to each other spending more time finding somewhere to sit in silence enjoying the peacefulness and calm that came from the others company.
Yet even that did not change their minds, to convince them otherwise.
Until it finally happened.
"You gonna stand there all day. Or maybe you realized you ain't gonna beat me and trying to find a way to gracefully runaway" Inuyasha smirked cockily his whole body oozing confidently, Tetsusaiga resting comfortably in it's sheath at his waist. Golden eyes narrowed in annoyance cause said hanyou to grin in triumph, having caused his normally stoic brother to show emotion.
"Hardly" Sesshoumaru bit back as they both eyed each other. Sesshoumaru continued to stare at his younger brother indifferently whilst Inuyasha continued to grin smugly as they drew their swords.
Only one pair of golden eyes reflected the sorrow they both felt in their heart.
Because they both knew in the end only one would remain standing.
Well that was chapter one for you, chapter two should be up soon I've already hand written so it's all about when I can be bothered to type up and make the last few changes. Hopefully it will be up by the end of this week or begging next. Well I hoped you enjoyed it so far review what you think XX
