This is probably going to be my second story up on the site, but more will come. So please review, I need to know what everyone thinks.

Disclaimer: This thing annoys me to hell but I don't own anything in the known Inuyasha Universe.

Till Kingdom Come

Chapter 1: Myoga's Mission

"Sesshomaru-sama!" screamed Rin as she ran toward her father figure. It was in the dead of night that a youkai from the north had attacked the three travelling companions.

"Rin, you need to get away from here." He replied in his emotionless voice. "Go with Jaken, I need to do this alone," he continued never taking his eyes off his opponent.

"But, Lord Sessh-"

"Rin, listen to me. When I took you in, you promised to obey my every order, did you not?"

"Yes, my lord," she whispered.

"Are you going to break your promise?"

"No Sesshomaru-sama."

"Then go with Jaken." Rin reluctantly began to step backwards toward Jaken.

"Hurry up child!" urged Jaken. "We must leave Lord Sesshomaru to his work."

With one last look at her mentor, she turned away and went with Jaken.

"Good then Sesshomaru. I have given you your chance to say farewell to your companions. Now we fight to the death," said his opponent. "You must know that you stand no chance in defeating me."

His opponent just happened to the Taiyoukai of the Northern Lands. He was a wolf of the mountains; he was covered in clothing and fur. He had a black haori bottom with blue dots up the right leg and blue kimono with purple swirling designs. He had 5 blue stripes on either cheek. He looked like he was a cruel person; had a hard face that looked angry almost perpetually. He had several weapons such as a finely crafted sword with adamant jewels in the hilt and a whip around his waist that looked like it had dried blood on it; it was probably for punishing unruly demons in the north. He also had two daggers strapped to either of his ankles. He looked like he had come to battle.

"Let's just get this over with," said Sesshomaru in his emotionless voice. "I grow tired of this. Your family's frequent attempts at taking my lands from me have been all but futile. They were all weak. I will not surrender my lands to you."

"We'll see if you can even survive my attacks," was all the intruder said as he drew his sword. Sesshomaru drew Tensaiga as well.

The intruder cracked his neck to both sides and engaged Sesshomaru. Their swords clashed and clanged for along time while the fight went back and forth, before he figured out that it WAS futile and he backed off again. He panted where he stand while Sesshomaru showed no fatigue at all. Sesshomaru was the master at swordplay. It seemed he was going to have to fight dirty.

"Kenji! Hakama!" Two wolf youkai hopped out of the forest and stood behind Sesshomaru. "Hold him!" They both were at Sesshomaru's side in a second. They each held an arm.

"What are you doing?" questioned Sesshomaru. "Where's your honour?"

"I'm winning the fight," answered the intruder. "Honour does not matter. All there is is winning."

"Hmpf." Sesshomaru began to struggle against his captor's when he realized they were no longer there. They were standing at the side of his opponent. They had been replaced in with tree vines woven in and out of each other. He tried to break them. "What is this? Sorcery?"

"Very good, 'Lord' Sesshomaru." He smiled menacingly. "Now you die."

"So you think." Tensaiga began to glow as Sesshomaru's bonds began to loosen.

"I don't think so," said the intruder as he closed his hand as if crushing something. Immediately the bonds tightened once again. "NOW you die."

Sesshomaru struggled more desperately against his bindings now but knew there was no hope as the intruder stood before him, sword raised. At it came down in a sickening slice, a scream could be heard in the forest.

"Take his weapons," cried the intruder in victory. The two lackeys went over and ransacked his clothes for anything valuable. They finally came to the sword lying in his limp hand. They each reached for it as a barrier formed around it and repelled it's new masters. "Fine leave it then, it's only a sword."

As Myoga watched this horrible act taking place from the back of a crow, he realized he had to do something. But what? The Western Lands are all but given up to the Northerner's now. But no one but the next in line could be the Lord of the Lands. He finally knew what he had to do. "Inuyasha!"

He looked down into the dense brush and spotted Jaken and Rin. "Down bird, down!"

000000 000 00000 000000 0000000 0000000000 000000000 00000000

Rin had persuaded Jaken to stay and watch Sesshomaru beat the Northerner. Instead they saw the Lord of the Lands fail. Rin was now sobbing uncontrollably over the sword the foreigners had left when Jaken saw a crow land not far away. "Ahoy there! Jaken!" said a small voice.

"Myoga, what are you doing here? Can't you see we have experienced a loss!" said Jaken hysterically.

"I know we were not on the best terms but we must find a new Lord of the Lands!"

Jaken thought about this and it clicked. "NO, NO, NO! Sesshomaru-sama would NOT allow that to happen!"

"But he would not want to give up his family's land as it has been for many hundreds of years as it is!"

"NO!"

"What are you two talking about?" asked Rin still sobbing.

"Inuyasha is to become the next Lord of the Western Lands!"

"NO!"

"How is that?" asked Rin.

"Jaken we must do something!"

"NO!"

"LISTEN TO ME!" yelled Rin. "What are you two talking about?"

"Rin," Myoga started in a comforting voice. "We need a new lord of the lands and Inuyasha is the next in line for the title."

"But I thought they had to be family?"

"They are Rin."

"I couldn't tell."

"Yes well. . . Rin now we have to replace Sesshomaru as the Lord."

"NO, Sesshomaru wouldn't allow it."

"Jaken, we have to, besides it means I can see Kagome and their friends, because I don't want travel alone with you," decided Rin.

"But. . ."

"Then it's settled!" said Myoga loudly as if closing the conversation.

"Well where are they now?" asked Rin.

"I remember Lord Sesshomaru grumbling about his brother about half a day ago," offered Jaken. "I can't believe I'm helping this along but it seems my Lord would not allow his lands to fall into the hands of those savages to the north."

"We can still catch them!" said Myoga as the sun rose behind him.
