To Trade My Wings for You
this is my first fanfic so constructive critisism is always welcome but please be gentle I break easy.
Ch. One
The tetsuiga lay on the ground in three pieces. The ram demon Inuyasha had tried to attack had taken it from him and bit down shattering the weapon. Using its demonic strength the ram demon had backhanded Inuyasha sending him several meters away. He lay amidst the rocks and dirt, beautiful amber-gold eyes closed. He was down.
Kagome seeing the odds being turned to favor the demon brought back her bow aligning it so it would hit its target and let go. The arrow bulleted towards the demon creating a purifying circle around it. Turning around just in time on his hind legs the demon raised his hand and the arrow stopped just mere centimeters from his large, hairy hand.
Inuyasha struggled to get to a sitting position. He had given Kagome his haori and he had lost much of his crème undershirt in the battle. Blood ran from gashes embedded in his chest, back, and one arm. Head lowered he breathed heavily and laborious as his chest strained to take in air
"Die little human." The demon spat out as he flicked his wrist sending the arrow charging back at her.
Inuyasha's head shot up, sending blood drops soaring into his unruly silver hair. "Kagome, No." He yelled as he got up and started to race towards her. Kagome crumpled to her knees rasping out a final breath then fell to the dusty ground to lie still amidst the battlefield. Once by Kagome's side Inuyasha knelt down to check for a pulse finding nothing he threw back his silver-haired head and howled as the hanyou's eyes turned a bloody red, the distinct bright magenta marks appeared on his cheeks as a result from the loss of his old sword and Kagome. Inuyasha's rage intensified as he looked back down to his dead mate, the little human thought they were just friends but Inuyasha had thought differently she was his mate because he cared and secretly loved her. He loved her and he had failed to protect his precious Kagome. Now the demon would pay. Getting up Inuyasha extended his claws out; the demon ram had no time to react for Inuyasha came at him fast effortlessly slicing him apart with his blades of blood. The blood seeped from him like a fountain as he breathed his last then his eyes dimmed snuffing out like a candle.
Inuyasha hurried back over to Kagome picking her up he sat her in his lap and cradled her cold, still form rocking slightly back and forth willing her chocolate brown eyes to open and her pretty smile to grace her delicate face. He couldn't leave her here he had to bring her home to her family or else they would worry about her if she didn't show up soon. Picking her up bridal style he carried her into the forest, the well wasn't that far away maybe a few minutes at best. Looking down at her, her head was forward resting her chin on her lifeless chest so he couldn't look into her face that had grown peaceful. Hopefully she found peace in death.
Inuyasha had Kagome on the ground beside the well. Taking the arrow out was going to be a tedious job because there was a chance the arrowhead would break off and stay in the body. Breaking off most of it he chucked it aside. Putting three slender clawed fingers into her body he carefully grabbed hold of what was left and eased the arrow out. More blood flowed out of the wound in her chest to stain her already bloody school uniform and his red haori. Her body wouldn't need the thin red liquid anyway so he was not worried for her body was dead it would not need a life source that only the rich red liquid could provide.
Bringing the tip out Inuyasha grimaced. "What a mess". He thought as he dropped the metal head of the arrow on the ground by her small hips. Unwrapping his fire rat coat from her limp form he picked her up once again and stepped onto the wooden ledge of the old decrepit well, their only link to each other from the feudal era to her more modern times with a talking box and instant ramen. Walking over the edge he held her tight in fear of losing her body, he had already lost her soul but even through his yokai state he still had an ounce of feeling and understanding though something inside him screamed for more bloodshed.
