This chapter is dedicated to brakken, who reviewed not only all the chapters in this fanfic, but all my other ones too! I can't even tell you how happy you made me. : ) Thanks for the criticism and I'll try to go back and fix my mistakes, although I usually write sometimes around two or three in the morning and I'm half asleep (that seems to be the time when I think best). So you can't really blame me, but I'll try anyways. But thanks again, even though I said it like three times already.
Also thanks to my other reviewers! You guys rock:
RisingXXAngel- Why thank you very much. : )
MadeNew-Yes, I'm getting to how he got another journal. Don't worry, it'll make sense soon. : )
Beaner93- You never ever fail to make me laugh. Thanks for always making my day.
Well, that's the end of my thank you rant (that took up half a freaking page. Wow). Enjoy!!
January 20th
"Shit!" I yelled, I think a little too loud. Why did he only come around when everyone else was sleeping?!
"DAMMIT! MIROKU, SANGO, KAGOME!! SOMEONE!" I strained my ears to hear anything- footsteps, breathing...I heard nothing.
"...Shippo?" I felt truly pathetic.
And then I heard it. That revolting sound of his laughter made the hair stand up on the back of my neck, and triggered the demon instinct in me to kill. I unsheathed my sword and held it with two hands in front of me. If no one was coming to help me, then I might as well put up a good fight.
And who knows? I might even kill him. This would be the day that everyone had been waiting for years.
"Show yourself, you bastard!" I yelled. I jumped when he appeared right in front of me, his face always hidden by that white baboon pelt. I half expected him to run away like the coward he was.
"hello, Inuyasha. What is a little half demon like you doing all alone in the scary forest?" He said my name like it was the most disgusting thing he'd ever heard of. I wanted to tear him limb from limb right there and now. I wanted this to be over, finally, after all the people he had made suffer, all the lives he'd destroyed. Families had been torn apart time after time, and I'd had enough.
I was determined to bring him down tonight- No more suffering, no more hurt. I just couldn't take it anymore, even if I had to do it on my own.
"Fuck you." I growled, emphasizing the words, spelling out my hatred for him.
"Where are your friends? The monk, demon slayer, kitsune, and that little girl you travel around with? They intrigue me. Maybe I will send Kohaku one day to capture them for my entertainment." He knew he was getting to me, and I knew exactly what he was trying to do. He would get me into my demon form so that he could kill me off easy, him probably not even breaking a sweat. I would have no common sense, just the instinct to fight, to kill.
I lunged at him as fast as I could with the Tetsusaiga, completely ready to stab the hell out of him. Literally.
And as fast as I had attacked him, he thrust one of his ever growing tentacles straight through my stomach. Time itself seemed to slow down, everything in slow motion. Somewhere in the back of my head I knew that rationally, it was just the fact that there was a giant squirming tentacle impaling me, but that didn't seem to help. Slashing my sword at it in a desperate attempt to free myself, I could feel at least two more of his grimy little tentacles stab me in places I didn't know. I was losing a lot of blood, and the world was starting to go blurry around the edges.
I knew I was going to pass out soon if I didn't do something. Right now there was nothing I could do; It was virtually impossible to move or even think straight. My vision was now spinning and shiny, and all I could see was fuzzy shapes of things I could make out.
"You bastard," I whispered. And so when I could feel myself slipping away, I did the only thing I could do.
I mustered every ounce of energy that I could possibly get, and screamed as loud as I could. I only hoped that someone could hear me.
The last thing I heard was that sickly laugh, one so horrible that shouldn't even be considered a laugh. And then everything went black.
Gasp! Cliffie! And thus ends my craptastic attempt at an action scene...I fullly intended to make this wayyy longer (It's only 2 pages...), but I'll update sometime between later tonight and Monday. I just wanted to get this part out. Reviews make me type faster. : ) Oh, and I'm thinking about rewriting the first chapter...maybe just adding to it, cause it's so small.
