Chapter 10 Demon Goddesses

Sesshomaru watched Tonari from the corner of his eyes. She quietly sat with her back to the door facing Inuyasha and Kagome. He looked at the ground pondering about what she had said about Hyouga. How she knew him was beyond him. That question had been bugging him since she told them about him. He turned to her. She stopped what she was doing and turned to him with a soft smile. He sighed. 'I guess I should just ask,' he told himself. "How do you know about Hyouga?" he asked.

Tonari's soft smile slowly faded. She turned away from him and looked at the ground. A sad expression was displayed over her face. "I know who he is because," she paused. She sighed. "I know who he is because he was the one who infected Hana-chan with the miasma when he raped her."

Kagome gasped. "He did what?"

Tonari nodded. "Hyouga had always fascinated Hana-chan. Hana-chan didn't like him. She always told me she thought he was kind of creepy," she said with a smile. Just as fast as it appeared, it faded. "But, three days before the final battle, Hyouga used a powerful potion on Hana-chan. She tried her best to fight him but the potion was making her weak. Instead of killing her like he had intended he raped her throughout the entire night non-stop. We found her the next morning tied to a tree naked as the day she was born. Father and Tatsuke were furious. They wanted to hunt whoever did it and kill him but Hana-chan didn't want them to because of the battle."

Sesshomaru could feel his anger rising. 'No wonder she didn't feel any pain when we were together,' he thought. His blood was boiling. 'How dare he touch what is mine!' he mentally hissed.

"I am glad you are enjoying my life story," Hanayoshin's voice could be heard.

He snapped out of his thoughts and looked over to the door where she was leaning against. Inuyasha and Kagome also met her gaze. Tonari kept her gaze on the ground. She was afraid to meet her gaze.

Hanayoshin held a very bored expression on her face. Inside she was raging. The mere memory of Hyouga forcing himself on her and riding her all night was enough to make her beast rise and take control completely. Just seeing his pathetic face made her blood boil. She turned. "Prepare yourselves, we leave now. Hyouga draws near as we speak," she said. Not bothering to wait for them, she went into the weaponry room and strapped her weapons on before leaving to wait out in the courtyard.

Tonari sadly sighed. She stood and made her way to her room to change for the up coming battle. 'Some many soldiers are going to die,' she thought. She closed her eyes imagining Hanayoshin's dead form in front of her. Her eyes flashed opened as she clutched her heart. She shook her head. "She'll be alright, you don't have to worry," she said to herself. She nodded to herself and left. 'I'll be strong, for myself and for Hana-chan,' she thought.

xXxXx

He held a smirk on his face as Kikyo moaned. He pumped faster and faster making her scream as her release came. Even when he felt her body relax to the after effects, he continued to pump until his release neared. He pulled out of her and shot his bitter semen into her mouth forcing her to swallow. He pushed her off to the side and pulled Kagura from floor. Without even bothering to remove her clothing, he lifted her kimono and thrust into her core earning a scream of pleasure.

Kikyo rolled to her side and stared at Naraku with tears in her eyes. Naraku restrained himself from his anger as he looked into her eyes. Kikyo mouthed an apology for being weak to him. He shook his head and pointed to himself.

They winced when they heard Kagura scream out as her release came. They heard the slapping of his hip to her butt cheeks for five more minutes before he threw his head back and released his semen into her mouth in much the same way he did to Kikyo.

He grabbed Kagura by the neck and threw her to the ground next to Kikyo. They both got to their knees and bowed to him. Bankotsu and Naraku joined them on the floor hiding their anger.

He let out an evil laugh that echoed throughout the entire room. He looked down at them. "Look at me my pets," he said. They lifted their heads and looked into his blood red eyes. They became hypnotized as soon as their eyes locked with his gaze. He laughed as their emotions were wiped clean from their faces. "Let's start our game of hide-and-seek shall we? Go, bring her to me." He waved his hand dismissing them. He turned from them breaking the hypnotism.

They stood and left the room. Naraku and Bankotsu immediately embraced Kikyo and Kagura as they covered their faces and sobbed. Naraku and Bankotsu led them into an empty room and held them in their laps.

Naraku rubbed circles on Kikyo's back as she snuggled into his chest. He whispered soothing words to her calming her down. She lifted her head and looked at him before capturing his lips in a heated kiss.

Naraku pushed her to the floor and repeated his master actions on her only much more gentle and loving. Kagura's moans could be heard from across the room as Bankotsu had his way with her.

He smirked watching his pets play with each other. 'That's right my pets. Enjoy yourselves while you still can. Once my new mate arrives, you will be at her mercy,' he thought. His smirked widened as the thought came to mind.

"Lord Hyouga, they have come," said a cold emotionless voice.

He nodded looking into the mirror. "Let the games begin," he said. He pulled the girl into his lap as he looked into the mirror. "Show her to me."

She nodded. She lifted the mirror up to his face. An image of a demoness with golden yellow hair and blood red eyes that matched his own appear in the mirror. He watched as she walked towards his hidden castle with all her companions behind her. He felt himself shiver at the hatred within her eyes.

He reached over to Kanna and pulled the mirror from her hands setting it down on his desk. He turned her girl in his lap until she faced him. He lifted her as he pulled his member from his hakama pants. He slid into her. They threw their heads back as they moaned. He stood and laid her down on the oak wood desk and thrust into her making her moan and scream out his name. He chanted the name of the demoness within the mirror. "Mine," he hissed as he released while still buried within her core. He ripped her kimono from her body and continued to thrust loving her screams of pleasure. 'It won't be long now,' he said to himself as he peered down at the mirror that held the image of his maiden.

xXxXx

Tonari and Kagome sat by the fire as Sesshomaru and Inuyasha returned with some fish from the creek they stopped by. Shippo rested on Raikoki's back underneath a tree while Hanayoshin was nowhere to be found.

Sesshomaru watched Shippo sleep. He noticed some of Hanayoshin's markings on his face. The only thing missing was the third stripe. The symbol on his forehead clearing states him to be the heir to the northern throne.

Tonari noticed Sesshomaru staring at Shippou. 'No doubt he figures it out,' she thought. Inuyasha followed Sesshomaru's gaze. He noticed the markings too. He hadn't seen them before. Then it hit him. "Is Shippou…?"

Tonari nodded. "I lied. Shippou is her son. He is the result of her raping. She found out she was with child several days after the battle was over. She hid it from me until she gave birth to him," she said her eyes blurring from the tears.

Sesshomaru noticed this. "Why is it so hard for you to tell us about your sister?" he asked rather curious.

Tonari sniffed as the tears fell. "Hana-chan has been through so much. She has sacrificed nearly everything to bring peace upon these lands for Shippou and my sake. She refused to let us live within these lands without the peace in which my father has provided ever since the day her eyes were exposed to the world," she said.

Sesshomaru nodded. He looked over at Shippou. "She's doing all of this for him," he said softly.

Tonari nodded. "She would have left these lands a long time ago. But because of her son, she kept fighting for the chance to give Shippou a life filled with peace and happiness whether she was part of it or not," she said.

Sesshomaru closed his eyes. Hanayoshin's image was burned into his mind along with the events from the night they shared. His mind suddenly wandered to the images of his mother. It was them that he knew why he loved Hanayoshin so much. She resembled his mother. He didn't know how much he missed his mother until now.

Inuyasha knew what was going through his mind. Now he understood. "She's just like your mother," he whispered to Sesshomaru surprising Kagome and Tonari.

Sesshomaru nodded. "Yet, she's so much like me in more ways then one," he finished.

xXxXx

Hanayoshin looked down at them. She kept her eyes closed. The memory of finding out Shippou was going to be part of her life was one she greatly cherished. She hated Hyouga with her very being but having Shippou as her son was the happiest time of her life. She had a child that she would raise as her own. She only wished that she could have a mate that could care for her young son and raise him to be a powerful warrior, not that she couldn't do it herself.

She heard them mention Sesshomaru's mother. She tilted her head up to the sky while continuing to mask her scent from them. She looked up at the afternoon sky. She jumped down into the bushes and walked out. They stood as she entered. She walked over to Raikoki and whispered something to him.

Raikoki nodded and turned to run back to the castle with Shippou. She turned on her heels to exist the clearing. "The game has begun," she said walking passed them.

They nodded. They ran after Hanayoshin as she sped through the forest. She could feel a spiritual barrier being lifted. 'Too slow,' she thought.

Kagome jumped and used her powerful claws to shatter the barrier before it was completed. They jumped through the opening and made their way into the courtyard of the castle.

Naraku and Kikyo stopped Inuyasha and Kouga as Bankotsu and Kagura stopped Sesshomaru and Ayame. Kagome and Tonari stood behind Hanayoshin by the gate as they watched them battle for dominance. Hanayoshin would aid them only when necessary.

Kagome pulled back a sacred arrow and let it hit Kikyo. Inuyasha jumped and slashed her across the chest. Naraku hissed as Kouga slashed his body into pieces. Sesshomaru thrust Tokijin into Kagura's stomach as Ayame's clawed hand pierced though Bankotsu's chest.

Hanayoshin knocked all four of them to the side as a black blur rushed out of the castle straight at her. Hanayoshin pushed Tonari and Kagome to the side when they jumped in front of her and blocked his attack with her sword.

All the previous battles seized as they watched Hanayoshin and Hyouga swung at each other. They were awe struck at how much energy was radiating off of them. Kagome and Tonari placed their hands together and placed a barrier around them. They concentrated on their aura and let it flare as it mixed with Hanayoshin's.

Hyouga smirked when his blade locked with hers putting their faces a mere two inches away from the each other. "You still look a beautiful as ever," he said lust clearly evident.

Hanayoshin smirked making his fade. "I can't say the same to you, you sex fiend," she said.

She knocked him back. He stood before her with a scowl on his face. He narrowed his eyes and smirked. "What ever do you mean?"

She rolled her eyes. "You think I can not smell your 'pets' all over you? To think that you would call them to you to pleasure yourself at the mere memory of my body. And here I thought you were merely a demon with some decency. I guess I was wrong," she mocked.

He growled. "That thought won't be in your mind when you're below me screaming my name," he said trying to hide his anger only to fail.

Hanayoshin snorted. "I've had better," she said.

This angered him. The thought of her spreading her legs for another male made his blood boil. He lunged at her. She dodged his attack and jumped to the side. Her smirk never left her face.

"How dare you spread your legs for another male! You are my whore and no one else's!" he shouted lunging at her again.

She blocked his attack. She brought her hand up to grip his neck as she stared deep into his eyes. "A whore also has needs," she said. His eyes flashed white. She threw him and thrust her blade into his stomach splattering his blood over her hakama.

He fell at her feet at the searing pain that was shooting through his body. He pushed himself to his feet but stopped when Hanayoshin's sword pinned him to the ground.

He heard screams and turned to see all four of his pets being released from his control and fell unconscious. Kanna was lying a few feet away from them also unconscious. He growled. He saw Tonari brush some dirt off her knees. He smirked.

He lashed out at her. Hanayoshin jumped in the way of his attack. He jumped to his feet just as she blocked his attack and pinned her to the wall with his body. She dropped her sword as his hand gripped her neck while pinning her to the wall.

"Hana-chan!!!" Tonari shouted.

"Hashin!!!" Kagome tried to run over to her but was stopped by Inuyasha.

Hyouga laughed. He looked at her hungrily. He could feel Sesshomaru glaring at him with all the hatred he could muster. This made his need for her even stronger. He bucked his hips against her letting his hardened member rub up against her core. She hissed making him smile. "You like that don't you?" he asked huskily. He did it again only to feel her forehead come in contact with his face. He backed away clutching his face in pain.

Hanayoshin pierced his shoulders with her whips. She pulled him towards her and pinned him to the wall. He hissed as she smirked. She slashed him across the chest. She dragged her clawed finger across his face loving the sight of his blood covered face as he glared daggers at her. "How do you like that?" she asked in pure mockery.

He hissed. He then smirked. She stopped and looked at him. His eyes flashed white as he watched her back away from him.

She clutched her chest as her body began to burn. He laughed as her blood spewed from her wounds. Miasma escaped from her body. She cried out in pain. Demons from the ground grabbed her arms and legs preventing her from moving. Hyouga flexed his claws. "This is going to be fun," he said.

"Hanayoshin!!!" Sesshomaru shouted. He ran towards her. Hyouga hissed. He summoned his demon army at them keeping them busy while he made his way over to her. He lunged at Hanayoshin with his claws out ready to strip her clean and satisfy his burning body. Sesshomaru watched him lunge towards her. The demons were getting in his way. He was trying his best to get to her before Hyouga did. Every time he killed a demon, three more replace it. He was getting pissed.

"Hana-chan!!!" Tonari shouted.

Hyouga's smirk widened as blood blurred his vision. It faded when he saw Tonari standing in front of Hanayoshin with his clawed hand thrust through her chest. He pulled his hand out as her poisonous blood seeped through her wound.

Sesshomaru turned to see Hyouga's hand thrust through Tonari's chest. What surprised him was that she was in her demon form. She was standing in front of Hanayoshin with her head bowed. He felt her life force slowly slipping away.

"Tonari!!!" Kagome shouted. She slashed a demon and made her way to her.

Tonari looked at her. "Kagome, please…take care of Hana-chan for me. She needs your…smile to brighten her day," she said. "Hana-chan, be happy…with Lord Sesshomaru."

Her head bowed and she fell over. Kagome and Hanayoshin stared in shock as Tonari's life force completely left her. Her body melted into a pool of dark black blood.

Sesshomaru turned to them shocked that Tonari was gone. He failed to the notice the demon beside him. He turned only to see Inutaisho slash it in half. "Sesshomaru, where's Hanayoshin?" he asked.

Sesshomaru looked over his shoulder as Hiten walked over to him having helped Inuyasha kill the last demon.

Kagome felt hot tears trailing down her cheeks. "No," she whispered. "No!!!" Her aura flared as her eyes bled red. Her aura engulfed her. Hanayoshin's eyes turned completely white. She watched as Kagome raised her head to the moon and screamed. Her aura disappeared to reveal her true demon form. Kagome lifted her head and roared at the moon above her.

Hyouga smirked. He too transformed into his demon form. He let his demonic aura take over as he stood before Kagome in his snake demon form. "Let's play," he said.

Inuyasha stare at her in awe. Kagome's black coat glistened in the moon light making her the most beautiful creature in his eyes. He was shocked at how much power she harnessed. He was even more shocked when Hanayoshin's aura flared to its full power behind her.

They watched completely awestruck as Hanayoshin's form was lifted into the sky. Her aura engulfed her as she transformed into her demon form. She raised her head to roar into the night sky as black wings sprouted from her back surprising everyone, even Hyouga. Her golden yellow fur sparkled in the night sky as her roar shook the earth below their feet.

Inutaisho's eyes widened. "Black wings?" he said. Just as he said that, white wings sprouted from Kagome's back again surprising them. Their aura mixed together making them shiver at how much power they both possessed. Even Hyouga shivered.

"They are the demon goddess," whispered a man that looked identical to Hanayoshin shocking them all.

"Who are you?" Inuyasha asked.

He turned to them. They gasped at the sight of him. "Tatsuke," Inutaisho said.

He bowed to them. "I am Hanayoshin's elder brother, Tatsuke," he said.

Sesshomaru's eyes widened. "Elder brother?" he whispered. He remembered seeing a painting of Hanayoshin and Tonari standing in front of a man that looked just like him. Tonari had said it was him. No doubt, the man before them was Tatsuke. 'I thought he was her lover. I am such an idiot,' he cursed at himself.

He snapped out of his thoughts and looked at Tatsuke. He held a mournful look as he looked down at Tonari. His eyes averted to Hanayoshin and immediately brightened. "She's become so powerful," he said watching her battle it out with Hyouga and Kagome.

"I thought you were dead," Sesshomaru said.

"I thought I was too. Luckily, I had this with me," he held up his hands. A tear shaped necklace dangled from his fingers. "Hanayoshin gave this to me incase something happened. This thing saved my life."

"Why did it take you so long to get back?!" Sesshomaru hissed grabbing him by the collar.

Tatsuke bowed his head. "Forgive me, Sesshomaru. I was ashamed. I let my father die. I left Hanayoshin alone. I didn't have the courage to face her knowing she would never forgive me for being so weak as to let our father die. Beside, I needed to restore my strength," he said.

Sesshomaru roughly released him and raked his hands through his hair as he watched Hanayoshin's paw come in contact with Hyouga's face sending him flying through the sky and land on the ground with a sickening thud. "Hanayoshin," he whispered to himself not caring whether the others heard him or not.

xXxXx

Hanayoshin could feel Tatsuke's aura from the other side of the courtyard. She inwardly smiled. 'He's still alive. I'm so glad,' she thought. She slapped Hyouga with her paw as he bit Kagome on the back. Kagome whimpered.

Kagome took several steps back as Hanayoshin jumped in front of her. Hanayoshin lifted her head into the night sky and roared. Her aura flared. "Time to end this," she said. Kagome nodded. They mixed their aura as their wings opened letting the moon reflect their beauty for all to see.
