I'm happy that everyone's commenting! ^_^ I wanted to keep on going with this story because I loved it… but there wasn't anyone commenting! But, I think that three comments are MORE than enough to start writing again! I hope you enjoy!
Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha
There was an awkward silence for a while. Everyone was swimming in there thoughts. Inuyasha was pitying her but also was hoping that Haruhi wouldn't be asked to come along with them… He wasn't sure about her yet.
Kagome was thinking about how horrible that must've been to see her only source of family die in such a tragic way. She was seriously debating whether to ask her to come along on their quest to defeat Naraku. She kept on glancing at Haruhi who now had her head down and nobody could see her face.
Shippo was reviewing the story in his head, trying desperately to understand what everyone was so serious about…. You see while she was telling her story, Shippo had a lollypop… and that explained why he didn't remember anything that she said.
Miroku felt bad for her, sure! But… if he only inched a few more inches closer he would have a perfect access to her behind!
And Sango, she was thinking about Kohaku and the similarity between the two. Haruhi can only live through the jewel shard that Inuyasha wanted… and Sango knew firsthand just how badly Inuyasha wanted the jewel shard to himself. And, although he wouldn't end Kohaku's life that way… she wasn't sure how long Inuyasha would keep Haruhi alive.
"So… thanks for talking to me." said Haruhi quickly as she stood up. She turned to walk away and Inuyasha stood up as well.
"Hey!!! You can't just leave with that jewel shard!!!" He yelled after her.
Without stopping, she responded with, "Look, I can't exactly give it to you either. I'm not going to ask for death like that!"
"Grr…" mumbled Inuyasha. He jumped ahead of her. "You're not going anywhere!" He yelled again, and he grabbed her shoulder forcefully.
"I'm flattered that you want me to stay." Haruhi said sarcastically. "But, I must be going. You know, places to go demon's to kill."
"Not without giving me that jewel shard!!!" Inuyasha shook her hard. But Haruhi didn't let up her ground. Kagome ran to the two and tried to pry Inuyasha off of her!
"Inuyasha! Let go of her!" screamed Kagome. "Can't you guys just figure out a way to settle it and be done with it!?"
"I'm all for that idea. How about a battle." said Haruhi through the shakes. "I know I have you pinned for that one." She smiled to herself.
"Pft! As if!" yelled Inuyasha.
"Look, I'm getting really tired of this…" growled Haruhi.
"You and me both! So just give it over!"
"I have a better idea." whispered Haruhi as she reached swiftly for something stored in a holster about the size of a pencil. She whipped out a fan with a blade for an edge. "I have had a lovely time here, but like I said, it's time to go!" And with that she swiped the fan in front of Inuyasha, forcing him to let go of her.
Meanwhile, in the background, Sango, Miroku, and Shippo were watching the trio curiously. When the fan was brought out though, Sango started to run towards them, with intent of protecting Inuyasha who could be an idiot at times like these.
She arrived quickly, even with the Hirakote on her back. "Okay okay!" yelled Sango over all the chaos. "Let's do this fairly!!!"
Inuyasha snarled, "No! You guys stay out of it, we ARE going to have a battle. And whoever wins gets what they want!"
"Heh, so you're finally starting to use your brain, eh dog boy?" said Haruhi mischievously.
"That's what you think wolf girl!"
Kagome and Sango back off once they saw that this was going to be a real battle. Neither of them would be allowed to help, so they both retreated back to the tree they were sitting in. "I can't believe this!" muttered Kagome under her breath. "Inuyasha is fighting her again… what if he looses?"
"I think that even if he looses, once Naraku is defeated, she will give up her Jewel Shard. She doesn't seem to care much for anything but that little girl… and once she avenges her, she won't put up a fight for it." replied Sango.
"I think you should both be quiet so we can watch this!!!" said Miroku loudly. Both girls glared at him and he shut up quickly.
"You know, Miroku." whispered Shippo, "You need to learn better timing."
*back to Haruhi and Inuyasha*
Both were standing about a meter apart when the fighting began. Inuyasha lunged with his Tetsaiga and started swinging wildly at her, creating small slashes in her Kimono… again! "Jeez, dog boy, you don't let up, do you?"
"Not a bit, wolf girl." He swung again and slashed her cheek.
"Now you're in for it!" Haruhi yelled. She swung the fan, which actually looked flimsy… Inuyasha wasn't prepared for what was going to happen. She stood still and held the fan in front of her face. "Time to die, dog boy." she muttered under her breath.
Without even saying anything the fan started to glow purple… and Inuyasha didn't want to wait to see what happened. "WIND SCAR!" he yelled and a burst of energy came out of his sword towards Haruhi. Her eyes grew wide and she couldn't move quickly enough to dodge the Wind Scar.
The fan became normal again and seemed to disintegrate into thing air when the Wind Scar hit it… and she was then hit head on. Her fragile body disappeared into the abyss of power. "Heh, bye bye wolf girl." muttered Inuyasha.
When the smoke cleared Haruhi's body was on the ground… and she wasn't moving. Inuyasha started walking towards her, expecting her dead. He did feel bad about it… the girl was interesting and fun… though he'd never admit it. And he also felt bad that she didn't get to see Naraku dead… but he could take care of that.
He reached Haruhi, and she had a tiny amount of blood coming from her mouth along with a lot of bruises. He wasn't expecting her eyes to flutter open. He jumped back at that, but remembered why he was there and what he was doing. He went back to her and stood over her…
It was pitiful really… she didn't seem to know what had happened… and a groan escaped her mouth. Inuyasha pulled out his sword again and her eyes widened. "Don't kill me…" she groaned… and surprisingly a tear slipped from her purple eye. "I have to…. I have to get him… he can't get away with it…." more tears now.
Inuyasha was silent as he stared at her in amazement. He couldn't make himself kill her! It was simple, just press harder on his sword and she'd be gone and he'd have his jewel shard. But… it wasn't working! He couldn't press down…
She continued to talk. "I just need to see him die… then you can have it… you can take it once he dies… just give me that…" And then her eyes closed again. She was out… and this would've been Inuyasha's chance. He groaned as he put Tetsaiga back…
He picked her up bridal style and her head lolled to his shoulder. You know… when he thought about it she was rather pretty… her white hair offset her skin even with all the dirt on it. And even though he couldn't see her eyes, he loved the way they glittered during a fight. Maybe he didn't realize it yet though. (a/n: This is some SERIOUS foreshadowing! Lol)
He brought Haruhi back to the group, who was in awe of what happened. They weren't expecting Inuyasha to use Wind Scar that quickly… and they really weren't expecting for him to bring her back!?
"Inu… yasha?" asked Kagome when he saw him walk past them, holding Haruhi. "Where are you going?"
"To the town. I think she needs some medical help. Even though she is half demon… a weak one at that." He looked back down at her unconscious face and smiled to himself. Kagome was the only one who caught that and she felt something in the pit of her stomach… and she wasn't sure she liked it.
I hope you guys liked it! I will have to keep on going with this FanFic for sure! ^_^ review please!
