Chapter 9: The battle begins!
Sango dogged an oncoming energy ball. "Dang it he's good!" Sango called to Kagome who was stringing up a bow as fast as she could. "I know I am and don't think I don't know what your doing!" Meazo shouted taking a swing at Kagome with his sword.
"But Lord Sesshomaru! Why are you helping Inuyasha and them?" Jaken squeaked. "Dang it Rin why am I helping them?" Sesshomaru commanded. "Because the pretty Lady Kagome is in trouble." Rin said.
"It's her fault for going into battle when she knows she's pregnant." Jaken commented. Sesshomaru stopped, his half brother had mated with Kagome meaning in a way they were family…. He sighed he had to help them.
Sesshomaru took off toward the castle he busted through the door and into the room with Inuyasha and Miroku. Inuyasha was on the ground with Miroku at his side trying to pull out a sword that was pushing itself deeper into Inuyasha's arm.
"The Sword of Demons once it hits the skin it pushes itself in the body and then releases poison." Rezuka laughed. "Ahhhhh!" Inuyasha screamed. "Inuyasha this sword won't come out!" Miroku stated. Sesshomaru rushed over and tried to pull the sword out to but it wasn't working.
Rezuka sighed he was bored he began to walk off, once the sword was done killing that stupid half breed it would kill the other demon then come and find him.
"Kagome!" Sango shouted as Kagome was thrown across the room. She hit with a thud but managed to get up and finish stringing the bow. She looked around and found a quiver full of arrows. 'Eight arrows I'll have to be really precise with these.' Kagome thought taking an arrow out.
She shot one and (As much as I hate this color) pink formed around it, it hit Meazo who screamed in pain. The arrow was purifying him. Meazo growled and turned his attention to the annoying miko.
Sango took a moment to breathe before going back into battle.
Kilala and Shippo stood motionless… So many doors! Which one to pick? "How about that one?" Shippo asked. "Meow." Kilala responded.
Shippo opened the door nothing in there, thirty doors later they still hadn't found what they were looking for!
"It has to be in one of these doors! Kaede have you found anything yet?" Shippo asked as Kaede was on the top floor looking through an old trunk. "Not yet child but I know it should be around here… it's his only weakness." Kaede said.
"Kaede! I found it!" Shippo shouted showing Kaede a…….. (Ha thought I'd tell you? What ever! You'll just have to figure it out on your own!)
"Inuyasha are you ok?" Miroku asked blocking the sword that seemed to keep going after Inuyasha. "Yeah I'm fine but we have to find Kagome!" Inuyasha said holding his bleeding arm. "This Sesshomaru…. Did you hear that?" Sesshomaru asked hearing a scream. "Rin!" Sesshomaru shouted rushing toward the room Rin had just entered.
"I got her!" Sango shouted catching the flying Rin. Meazo growled this was getting quite annoying!
Rin stopped screaming long enough to hold onto Sango for dear life. "Rin get out of here now! Before you get hurt." Sango stated. "But… but… I want to help." Rin said. "You can help just go and find Inuyasha and Miroku!" Sango replied. Rin nodded and ran off, she no more than got out of the door than when the Ice Prince himself bumped into her.
Rin fell to the ground and looked up, "Lord Sesshomaru! Help you have to help!" Rin shouted. Inuyasha and Miroku pushed past Sesshomaru and ran into the room. Kagome lay on the floor her back toward everyone, Sango was just being thrown when she landed she couldn't move.
"What have you done to them!?" Inuyasha growled his demon trying to take over. He lost Kagome once and he wasn't about to lose her again! "Sango!" Miroku shouted trying to rush over, he was caught off guard and slammed against the wall by Rezuka.
He smirked he knew The Sword of Demons wouldn't work on him but that's why he always carried an extra sword. He took it out and jammed it in Miroku's shoulder, pinning him to the wall so he couldn't move. Rezuka walked off and to Meazo's side. "As I have said before I will give my life for you." Rezuka said taking his sword out and pointing it to Inuyasha.
"Meazo you have done well… leave this half breed to me. But if you would make a barrier so no one can get in or out." Meazo said. "As you wish." Rezuka said bowing. Rezuka hadn't learned much magic but he did know how to make barriers, he quickly made one and turned his attention back to the monk.
Miroku was using his free hand to pull the sword from his shoulder out but it was stuck in there good.
Sesshomaru growled no one touched Rin! Unless it was him and sometimes Jaken because she was annoying him and then again there was the time…. Wait he needed to turn his attention back to the fight.
He stormed in the room and punched Rezuka, Rezuka hadn't planned on this and lost balance. Sesshomaru pulled the sword out of Miroku's shoulder, which hurt Miroku a great deal. Miroku couldn't move his shoulder at all; his shoulder blade had shattered when the sword was jammed in it.
Miroku winced in pain but nothing more; he grabbed his neglected staff and ran over to Sango. "Sango? Sango are you ok?" Miroku asked lightly shaking her. "Miroku?" Sango asked dazed.
"Inu… Inuyasha… Miroku… where's… Inuyasha?" Kagome groaned in pain. "Fighting against his will." Miroku simply answered as he watched the fight between vampire and hanyou.
Kagome winced in pain but lifted her head up enough to see the barrier that was created. She had one arrow left the other seven were plainly marked… well stuck in Meazo's body.
She reached for the bow and brought it to her, Miroku grabbed the last arrow and helped her sit up. Kagome carefully aimed and shot the arrow using up the last bit of her energy. "Ha! Stupid wench you missed!" Meazo laughed. "No…. I didn't… I hit… just…. Wh… what… I wanted." Kagome stammered before finally passing out.
Meazo growled in frustration. "Kagome!" Inuyasha shouted rushing over. "Sango… Sango! Sango please wake up!" Miroku shouted lightly shaking Sango. "Is she ok?" Inuyasha asked. "I don't know! It doesn't look like she's breathing!" Miroku shouted.
"Rezuka…. If you would… ah please kill our guests I grow tired of them. If you need me I'll be outside getting some fresh air." Meazo said walking off. "Yes Sir." Rezuka said bowing.
Meazo walked outside ignoring Rin and Sesshomaru. Sesshomaru walked in the room he used his Poison Whip, (Thank you Miko in training for telling me that!) to slice right through Rezuka's body. But before he did that he made sure to cover Rin's eyes the last time she saw something like that it ended up her sleeping in Sesshomaru's bed for two weeks.
TWO WEEKS!!!!! Two weeks of her talking in her sleep! Two weeks of her cuddling up because if she didn't have someone there she had nightmares…. Two awful weeks of no sleep!
"Why did Lord Sesshomaru cover Rin's eyes?" Rin asked as Sesshomaru took his hand away. "I didn't want you to have nightmares." Sesshomaru said as he walked over to Inuyasha and everyone else.
"Why did you help us?" Inuyasha asked. "Well I heard she was pregnant with your pup and I wanted to know was she drunk?" Sesshomaru asked. Inuyasha growled, "Shut up!" Was his only reply.
Kag's dream
Kagome stood in a room full of mirrors each one showing the same picture. A small golden trunk lay on the floor, with an iron padlock the keyhole was in the middle as it should be.
"Wh… whe… where am I?" Kagome stuttered. "Your in a room full of mirrors." A girl giggled. "Well I kinda figured that out! But why am I here?" Kagome asked getting rather annoyed. A small girl around seven stepped out of the mirror. Kagome stepped back a little bit from shock and to give her some room.
"Hi I'm Meazo's younger sister Ria." Ria said extending her hand out. Kagome shook it and said, "I'm Kagome." "I know." Ria replied smiling. "Ummm can you tell me where I am?" Kagome asked.
"Well… I can't really do that but I can give you something." Ria said.
"Ok." Kagome said wondering how she was going to get out of here. "Here walk into any mirror." Ria said. "Any mirror?" Kagome asked. "Anyone you choose." Ria said.
Kagome studied an oak mirror with a craving at the top and bottom of a dragon with its body wrapped around the mirror. She stuck her hand in and decided to get over with, she held her breath and took one giant leap, Ria giggled and followed behind her. "See this trunk?" Ria asked as Kagome studied the trunk more closely.
The golden trunk had ancient markings inscribed in it.
"Only a pure heart will be able to open this sacred trunk of truth. Others will be sucked in here with no way to escape, she will save us from the curse which has been placed so many years ago." The trunk read.
"What does this mean… I don't… I'm afraid I don't understand." Kagome said. "You're the pure hear were looking for! Reno sealed the only weakness Meazo has in here years ago! Now we need you to get it and save us! Our souls can't rest in peace not until he's gone…. Please Kagome help us." Ria responded her eyes pleading. 'I can't just leave them…. I have to help!' Kagome thought.
"Ok… ok I'll help tell me what I have to do." Kagome replied. "You'll help? You will really? Yes!" Ria exclaimed. Before Kagome had a chance to even think about what she was getting into much less change her mind Ria was telling her what she had to do.
"When you wake up there were be a golden key around your neck find this place and open the trunk remember the mirror you took to get here because that's the only way you can get here. Take any other mirror and you'll end gosh knows were!" Ria warned.
"Kagome!" a voice shouted. "You must go! Let the key be your guide!" Ria exclaimed before Kagome left.
"Uhh… mmm…. Ugh! What?" Kagome asked opening her eyes. "Kagome!" Inuyasha shouted hugging his mate. "Inu… Inuyasha?" Kagome asked. "Yeah… are you ok?" Inuyasha asked. "Fine how long have I been out?" Kagome asked.
"Five days." Inuyasha commented.
Author's note: Wow Kagome's been out for five days! That's crazy! But what about Meazo and Rezuka? Well Inuyasha's got a lot of explaining to do! So tune in next time... wow i sound like an announcer lol well read and reveiw!!!
