I own nothing
"Elvish language"
Kagome had finish packing and headed outside where everyone was waiting for her. She was asked to join the Fellowship and help them with their task. Gandalf had mention at dinner about how she did the exact same task as Frodo and succeeded. Frodo was surprise. That's when Gandalf saw the look in his eye and asked Kagome to join them. Her father objected it immediately and one of the Fellowships, Boromir, saying that a woman wouldn't be able to handle a task like this and that she would be a burden. Feeling her anger raising everyone around Kagome scooted away as she shot ice daggers at him which pinned him in him to his chair. It took some time for Gandalf to persuade her father (with some help from Sesshomaru and Koga) to let Kagome go. The rest of the Fellowship didn't mine and thought she will be a great assent.
"Be safe my child." Her mother (Andune) said as she was hugging her. "It pains me to see you go. It feels like I just got you back and now your leaving again."
"I have to do this mama. I can't turn my back on someone that needs my help." Kagome said
Andune smile at her daughter. "Your definitely your fathers daughter."
"Kagome." Aragorn voice came from behind them. "It looks like we had a store-away." He lifted Shippo up who was pouted.
"Shippo." She sighed
"But I want to go too. I've gone with you before." He pouted again and crossed his arms. He tried to use his fox charm on her but she just gave him a stern look.
"Aragorn chuckled and put Shippo down. "I have no doubt that you'll be a great assent to us as well but you are needed here to protect your mothers kingdom." He said
"He is right Shippo. With me gone someone needs to hold up the front and to look out for your sister." Kagome smiled down at him.
Shippo was felling a little pride with the comments but Kagome could tell that he wasn't buying it. He agreed to stay but to make sure he stays for sure Kagome told Sesshomaru to watch out for him. She would have let Shippo come along but she knew this will be even more dangerous than in the feudal era. She kissed her children and family good-bye and began to leave.
"Bye!" She waved to everyone from a distance and looked at the neko on her shoulder. "Ready for another adventure Kilala?"
The little neko mew in excitement and they both headed with the rest of the group.
They were out of the snow elf lands and headed towards Moria. During the tie Kagome has gotten along with everyone. Well except for Boromir. He stayed away from her so he didn't get on her bad side again. As for Legolas, he been giving her a few glances without her noticing. He still didn't know what his feelings were for her but when ever their eyes met there was a pull in his heart that wanted him to be closer to her. To love her, cherish and protect her.
They had reach Moria and Gandalf was trying to fine the right password to open the door. Nothing had work for the passed two minutes and everyone rested. Frodo was sitting by Gandalf who was still chanting. Gimli was sitting on a rock smoking his pip. Merry and Pippin were throwing rocks at the water. Boromir and Leogas were keeping a look out. Sam was helping Aragorn the saddle and packs off his pony Bill. Kagome couldn't help but scowl at the lake. She could sense the evil that is lurking within it. She grab the handle of Tessaiga just in case something happens. Legolas saw this and walked over to her while eyeing the water as well.
"What is it, Kagome?" Legolas asked
"Something in the water. I could sense it." She said
Even Kilala (who was in her big form) was growling at the water.
They looked away from the water when Gandalf used the word "Friend" in elvish to open the door (Thanks to Frodo). So they walked in the chamber and Gimli started to talk.
"Master elf and lady, you will enjoy the fabled hospitality of the dwarfs! Roaring fires, malt beer , red meat off of the bone." He said in pride and went on and on. "And they call it a mine. Mine!"
"This is no mine. It's a tomb." Boromir spoke
Gandalf raised his staff that he lit with his magic and everyone saw corpses of dead dwarfs. Gimli looked around and cried out in vain. Legolas pulled an arrow out from one of the corpses and alerted everyone it was goblins that were responsible for this. He took out his own arrows and the others took out their weapons as well in respond.
"Boromir spoked again. "We make for the Gap of Rohan. We should never have come here. Now get out of here! Get out!"
Kagome felt a dark aura creeping up from behind them. As she turn a tentacle wrapped itself around Frodo's ankle. The site of it reminded her of Naraku. She shot out ice daggers at it but didn't let go. Then Sam, Merry and Pippin join in and tried to hack it off with their swords after Sam called out to Aragorn.
Kagome and the hobbits tried their best to keep Frodo away from the water but more tentacles rose to push them away. Kagome leaped in the air before the tentacle could hit her and unsheathe her sword. Everyone was awed at how her sword had transform. It was huge!
"HOSENKI KONGOSHOHA!" She shouted
She swung her sword and a dozen shards came from it. They cut through the tentacle that held Frodo and Boromir caught him.
"Go now!" She shouted as landed.
Gandalf yelled at them to head to the mines and everyone followed but Legolas. He didn't want to leave her alone with the beast so he shot some more of his arrows at it. Once she raised her sword up high he could fell its powers flowing. His eyes widen at what he saw next.
"WIND SCAR!"
Within seconds a great force of power slash at the beast, along with half of the landscape. Kagome sword shrunk back to a normal sword and she was brought to he knees, using the sword to lean on. She tried using the some of her miko powers to mix with the Wind scar to make it more powerful. It was something she had wanted to try and now it seems that she used too much.
"Are you okay?" Legolas asked who went straight to her side the moment she fell.
"Just... a little... drain." She said
She took a deep breath and stand up to sheath her sword. Then went in the mines with Legolas by her side just in case. As they walk in the mines they followed Gandalf to lead the way. They reach up to some stairs and Kagome knew the hobbits would have a had time getting up so she put them on Kilalas back. As they reach the top there were three passage ways. Gandalf couldn't remember which way so everyone settle down.
"I've never seen a sword with such power." Aragorn said to Kagome. "I could tell its not made by any craft men in this world. Was it made from the world you went to ?"
Kagome smiled and took the swords one by one to introduce them.
"These swords are brothers. They were made by the fangs of a great dog demon name Taisho. He was my big brother father. He made three swords. This is Tessaiga, known as the sword of earth." She stated as she held out Tessaiga. "The sword was made to protect man. With one swing it can slay one hundred demons. It was given to his second son when he died. A half demon, who was known as Inuyasha."
"Was?" Merry said
"He died ten years ago." She said with a sad look in her eyes that didn't go unnoticed. Then she put Tessaiga away and held up Tenseiga. "This is Tenseiga. Known as the heaven sword. It doesn't cut because it was made to heal. With one swing it can save one hundred souls. But only once. It also has another technique to open a portal to hell, known as Meido Zangetsuha. It was given to his first born, Sesshomaru."
"What of the third sword?" Pippin asked
"The third one was destroyed by Tessaiga and Tenseiga. It was called So'unga. The sword of hell. It can control the dead and open the gate to hell." She said "It was a dangerous sword that had a mine of its own. Only Taisho or a very powerful demon was able to control it. The great dog demon only wish was that both of his sons worked together their swords to destroy So'unga." She anime sweat drop and laugh at the next part she was going to say. "They did at the end but they both hated each guts and suborn that it was hard for them to do it without asking."
They believed her at that part. After meeting with Sesshomaru it was hard to see him asking for help.
"I have one question." Boromir said "If Sesshomaru was the eldest, why didn't he get Tessaiga since it's powerful than the other?"
"The sword was made to protect man. Sesshomaru wasn't like how he is now. He only thing he thought about was power." She explained "His father wanted to teach him what it means to protect and love someone by giving him Tenseiga. It didn't work until he met my daughter Rin. He saved her life and cared for her dearly."
"What of this Inuyasha persn you spoke of?" Legolas asked "What happen to him?"
"That story is for another time." She said giving them a sad smile.
Just on time, Gandalf finally remember which way to go and lead the way. Reaching to the end of the stairway Gandalf spoke again and increase the light. It was bright enough to see the great stone halls.
"Behold: The Great Realm and Dwarf city of Dwarrowdelf." He said
The Fellowship was amazed at the architecture as Gimli gasped at the masterpiece of his cousin. They walked through the great hall and Gimli caught a glimpse of light shinning into a chamber. He went off running towards it ignoring Gandalf call. Everyone followed after him. Once they caught up he was on his knees before the crypt that was built in the center of the room. Scattered around the chamber were dried and decomposed corpses of dwarfs. Gandalf came closer to the stone tomb, translating the runes chiseled into the stone.
"Here lies Balin, son of Fundin, Lord of Moria." Gandalf said "He is dead then. It is as I feared."
Gandalf glance around and found a tick batter book. He passed his stuff and hat to Pippin and picked the book up. Gimli was sobbing and started to chant a pray in his people language. Kagome went up to Gimli and put a hand on his shoulder to comfort him. Legoals went over to Aragorn to tell him that they should move on and Kagome couldn't agree with him more. Ever since she step in the mines she has sense evil around them.
"They have taken the bridge... and the second hall..." Gandalf read out loud "We have barred the gates...but cannot hold them for long. The ground shakes. Drums...drums... in the deep. We cannot get out. A shadow moves in the dark. We cannot get out. They are coming."
During all this Pippin was backing away, clutching the staff and hat. He hit a well that had a corpse on the lips of it. He touch the arrow that was imbedded in it and when Gandalf ended, it fell down and made a loud noises. It spooked and irritated everyone and Gandalf was frustrated.
"Fool of a Took!" Gandalf hissed "Throw yourself in next time and rid us of your stupidity!"
Taking his thing from ashamed Pippin and walked away. Kagome felt sorry for him and was about to say something until she felt the dark aura coming. Then everyone heard the drums coming from the well. Sam looked at Frodo's sword seeing that it was turning blue. The orc cries were soon along with the drums. Boromir and Kagome rushed over to the doors. When Boromir was looking out the door Kagome pulled him back before orc arrows could impale him. As they shut the door Aragorn and Legolas were beside them to barricade the door.
"They have a cave troll." Boromir said sarcastic
They were about to sea the door until they felt the temperature of the chamber room has gotten lower. They turn to see Kagome using her powers to ice the door as tick as she could. At least it will give them some time ti prepare. They all got out their swords as the elf's notching their arrows.
Orcs were heard, trying to break the tick ice door down. Kagome smirked at her work but it disappeared when she heard a loud pounding and the door started to rile. Guessing it was the troll Boromir spoke of. Two more pounding and the ice started to crack. Another pounding and a toll barged in with a few orcs behind it and the battle began. The fellowship did not hesitate to clash their swords and imbedded arrows with orcs. Kagome killed half of them by releasing her arrows with purity. When orcs came close range to her Legolas immediately shot them. She heard the death cries of the orcs and looked at him with thanks.
"Always watch your back, your Highness." He said cocky
Kagome narrowed her eyes at his cockiness and threw ice shuriken's at his way and ended up killing two orcs behind him.
He look over shoulders and was amazed.
"Always watch your back, your Highness." She smirked and mockingly bowed to him. He couldn't help but smirk back.
A few minutes and two trolls, along with about a dozen ocrs dead the fight was over. Everyone hovered over Frodo who was stab by a troll. Aragorn turn him over and to everyone's surprise he was alive, thanks to the Mithril he wore under his shirt. But the happiness was gone when they heard more footsteps coming their way.
"To the Bridge of Khazad-dum!"
