I do not own Inu-Yasha or any of the characters. Sorry for the long wait in-between chapters. I will try to post chapters faster and excuse my grammar.

Sesshomaru slowly sat up as he stumbled a little before rising to a knee. He coughed up a little blood before he finally stood up calling "The Fight is not over yet."

Sasori stopped moving and looked at Sakura before replying "Maybe I over estimated your ability Sakura but no matter Sesshomaru gather your strength and come to the base of Mount Fuji and depending on your answer you and Sakura may continue." Sasori slowly leaned down cutting the wrap restraining Rin. "Your injuries may take longer to heal I'll give time to gather strength meet us at the base mount Fuji on the night of the next full moon that six and half weeks."

"He still wishes to fight let us continue Sasori." Sakura called as she turned to face Lord Sesshomaru.

"Sakura you have had your fun for today let's leave this dog to lick his wounds and contemplate choices I will give him. Sesshomaru you have two choices you will open the door to your mother legacy regardless you can bow to me an I will let you live in peace unless I have need of your skills or Sakura can and will kill you, Rin, Kagura and thing that travels with you." Sasori called as leapt up into the tree stopping. "Come Sakura we have other business to attend to." Sasori added.

Sakura sighed "Next time then next time Lord Sesshomaru" She quickly followed Sasori as he had already moving again in the treetops.

Sakura moved quickly to catch up with Sasori before she whispered "Do think he believes we are from the Celestial Bureaucracy?"

Sasori sighed at the relative stupidity of her question "Whether he believes it or not is irrelevant the fact of the matter is he is the key bearer and his mother's legacy is what we seek. Besides news travels slowly it will be months before anyone realizes there is no more Celestial Bureaucracy they died two weeks ago. The fact that I killed all four demons myself saves us from worrying about there interference."

Sakura smiled before she replied "My My Sasori we do plan ahead. But if in his weakened state something does happen to Sesshomaru."

Sasori sighed again "Then all this was a waste of time and the door will remain sealed and his mother legacy will remain lost. That is why I only allowed you to play with him and not his companions Kagura and Jaken will protect him. But there is something that troubles me."

Sakura hesitated for a moment deciding to choose her words very carefully out of fear of Sasori wrath as she slowly opened her mouth to speak.

Sasori continued his explanation "I was thinking you have inconvenienced us greatly. The breaking of Tokijin was a stupid move Sesshomaru processes great power but depending on Tokijin is his crutch."

Sakura quickly replied "But you said you could depose of him easily."

Sasori laughed before replying "I can but Sesshomaru is never one to satisfied with his own power he won't come to mount Fuji until he sure he can defeat us that's why I had you fight. He knows I'm the stronger because you obeyed my orders however he can't gauge how much so. What concerns me is where he will go to learn or acquire new tricks for our next encounter."

"Toto-sai the Tenseiga's smith should I pay him a visit." Sakura added.

"No let him go nothing he can learn can prepare for the conflict to come." Sasori whispered as he increased speed.

Sesshomaru staggered forward as his claws cut the wraps binding Kagura.

Kagura quickly rose as she attempted slid his arm onto her shoulder's to offer him some kind of support. "Lean on me." she cried as she watched him stumble.

Sesshomaru quickly straightened his stance as he reflexively snapped "I do not need your help. Just make sure Rin's ok." Sesshomaru facial strips grew wild as his eyes turned red and were filled with killing intent as he walked and cut Jaken loose.

"My lord we need to get you back to the castle." Jaken said as he grabbed the staff of heads.

"No we head to mount Fuji." Sesshomaru said as he started walking.

Rin quickly went to backpacks as started gathering salves for his wounds. "We need to treat your wounds now."

"Rin be silent." yelled Sesshomaru as he staggered slightly feeling a little light headed. His arms and legs were starting to resist his orders. He collapse and fell forward as he closed his eyes expecting to slam into the ground. When the expected impact did not come he slowly opened his eyes to see Kagura holding him.

"Sesshomaru you said where we go next is something we both have to decide which means we are in this together. Let me help you." Kagura smiled faintly as a few tears streamed down her face. As she felt his normally warm body was slightly cooler.

Sesshomaru face slowly returned normal expressionless state it had been a long time since he felt this weakened. He slowly wiped the tears from her eyes. "I'm …" he started

Kagura helped him back towards camp cutting him off "Its ok I understand. Your not the type to accept help. Your pride is part of the reason I like you."

Kagura sat him down in the shadow of a tree as she drew one of the feathers from her hair. Allowing it to expand into a larger version of itself. She and Rin placed Sesshomaru's body on the feather. While Jaken bought Lord Sesshomaru mount around. Rin quickly fastened the feather to the mount and climbed on the two headed demon horse beside Jaken. Kagura quickly climbed on the feather as she rolled up her sleeves and prepared to apply the salve to his wounds.

"Where do we go now?" Kagura asked as the feather slowly started to float

"To Lord Sesshomaru's castle. North of here." Jaken responded as he guided the reins.

To be continued
