Chapter 10: Chapter 10
CHAPTER 10
Kagome felt herself growing weak, and alone.
She felt that no one was with her anymore she felt emptiness and was losing the will to live.
Kagome felt some one break the shackles she had and then lift her up, and the pain she was already feeling became a million times worse her skin felt like burning fire or a miasma had just entered her body and the pain was so much that her mind just went blank.
When she came back she noticed no pain and that she was dressed in a miko garment.
'Hmmm I must be in my mind again' thought Kagome noticing a purplish light coming from the distance and in the middle of that light she saw someone waving at her to go in that direction.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Sesshomaru was fighting with Naraku avoiding reckless attacks and at the same taking a few swings to just get them all dodged as well while Inuyasha was trying to get to Kikyo, Sango and the nekos.
Sango was not in the best shape possible and had to do a lot of effort to keep herself alive since she had a huge slash that didn't want to stop bleeding and with that amount of blood loss it was amazing she could still stand up with the help of her Hiraikotsu.
Meanwhile Kikyo was shooting arrows at Kohaku and once in a while getting in hand to hand combat but soon breaking it because of her body condition.
Kagura kept attacking Kirara and Anyaru with 'Dance of the Dragons' but they just kept dodging and counter-attacking.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Sesshomaru saw Kagome on the floor battling for life and in a big pool of blood and suddenly his blood boiled to new extents that the Daiyoukai never knew he could.
'Why is this one getting so angry…that is for me to know and for you to find out… tell this one this instant…look you are not the boss of me and you have to find out eventually!…'.
Naraku lunged some tentacles at Sesshomaru and he cut them of just to see them regenerate in seconds and attack him again so Sesshomaru used poison claws this time so the tentacles took a bit more time to regenerate and while he had the time he slightly bumped into Inuyasha causing the younger Inu too look at him so Sesshomaru nodded in the direction of Naraku and then Kagome and Inuyasha quickly understood and turned to fight Naraku.
Somehow in a matter of minutes Kirara and Anyaru had been able to get Kagura to fight outside, Kikyo was able to throw Kohaku outside with of her arrows and Inuyasha had been able to get Hakudoshi and Naraku outside as well so the battle was outside and the wounded girls were in less danger.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Sesshomaru saw every one take the fight outside, and the taija still trying to stay standing even when she was bleeding to death then he saw Kirara return very quickly and grab Sango and take her outside.
Sesshomaru broke the shackles that were holding Kagome prisoner and lifted her bridal style with one arm and his tail, he then started to walk to the disgusting forest that surrounded Naraku's castle.
He was half way his destination when he heard Kagome's heart start to beat slowly and her breath to get short and gritty.
He looked down and noticed she was becoming very pale even paler than him.
"Miko, miko, wake up" said Sesshomaru releasing a bit of his yuki so she could feel it.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Kagome walked to were the light was coming and saw a faceless woman with small wings and a halo who was walking in front of her guiding her then Kagome heard someone saying.
"Miko, miko, wake up" and felt a little pressure like someone had released a bit of their power.
"Strange" said Kagome out loud.
Then Kagome looked back at the faceless woman and noticed she had transformed into some sort of demon that looked like the centipede lady but had legs and a lot of other demon parts making her look grotesque, and the light was now pure blood red and demon hands were reaching out and trying to grab her and some of the hands were able to.
"AHHH someone help me" cried very sharply Kagome but her Inu appeared right in front of her with her majestic wings and beautiful silver fur and destroyed all of the hands and he gross looking demon that had been the faceless woman and grabbed Kagome by her miko haori and threw her on her back when and odd looking demon attacked them.
When The Inu yokai was high enough in the air, she asked.
"What the hell is wrong with you! Do you want to die so badly?".
Kagome looked at the Inu's head.
The Inu smelt sadness and depression rolling off of her.
"….".
The Inu stopped in midflight.
"Well tell me now, because if you want to die I can always turn around and give you there"
"….."
"Think it over, will your death make the people around you happy?".
"Probably they don't care about me…they probably would not notice me gone" said Kagome in an emotionless voice.
The Inu got pissed and made an abrupt descendant move and because of the rashness of that move Kagome was left in the air with nothing bellow her and started a very hard and quick fall.
Kagome's eyes got as big as saucers but was caught by the Inu in time and was now sitting in the Inu's snout looking at the deep dark red eyes of the Inu yokai.
"Do you hear yourself saying no one would care, what about Shippo the young Kitsune that thinks of us as his mom or Rin that she may not say it out loud but considers us as a mother to, do you think they would be happy or careless about you?"
Kagome kept silent and averted her gaze.
"And what about Sango and Miroku that consider you as their family and sister? And what about Kirara that protects you and Anyaru that sees you as his savior and master?" a few tears slid down Kagome's cheeks.
"And what about your family that loves you and is always waiting for you? What about the half Inu that was your first friend here and whom you've travel with for 4 years and came to have a crush on?" Kagome was now presently crying her eyes out.
"And what about Sesshomaru who allowed you to be in his pack with not even an ounce of regret, or Ah-Un and Jaken that may be annoying but is there looking after you in some kind of a creepy way and share the same pack with you?".
Kagome looked into the dark red eyes of the Inu while her own eyes were still tearing up and spilling more tears.
"And what about me?…do you think I wouldn't be devastated to lose you a new friend and a new life?…".
Kagome dried her tears and got up in wobbling feet and was able to go to the bridge of the Inu's nose is and said.
"I'm…I'm so sorry…I'm sorry I care for all you guys and I care for you..and thanks I needed that" stuttered Kagome.
"No problem you just needed to be the Kagome we all know and love again".
Kagome gave her inu a small kiss and some sort of a hug and climbed her way back to the middle of the inu's shoulder blade.
Kagome looked at the crystal clear sky and saw a little spot of pure white light start to become bigger and bigger.
"Hey get back out there and in a while we'll talk again ok?" said the inu.
"OK" was Kagome's reply giving a pat on the back of the inu.
The Inu started to move again towards the light they closed their eyes while they were getting closer because it was becoming blinding.
Kagome took a deep breath and allowed the light to engulf her.
"See you soon" said the inu in a whisper.
Kagome felt her body held in some kind of way by a strong arm and a fluffy thing that was shaking her a little then she heard that voice again.
"Miko…miko wake up…this one shall not allow one of his pack to die…".
'Hehe even in such a bad condition he still uses third person and commands people hehe' Kagome then felt an acute pain pulse in her whole body and wanted to stop it somehow so she did what she could she open her eyes to see Sesshomaru and then fainted.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Sesshomaru had started to walk again when he heard Kagome's heart beat start to speed up a little and he then made his way into the sickly looking forest then he heard Kagome's breathing get more deep and faster showing in how much pain she was then he decided that Kagome was part of his pack and he would not let her die.
"Miko…miko wake up…this one shall not allow one of his pack to die…" he then saw Kagome steer a little show how much pain she was in again and open her eyes slowly her eyes shining in pain and fainted.
Sesshomaru lifted an eyebrow and if he was not the mighty Daiyoukai he is he would have sighed ironically.
Then Sesshomaru saw a nice tree trunk to put Kagome down and let her rest a little bit and so he did he put her down and accommodated her so that her back was against the tree trunk and she was in a semi sitting position.
Sesshomaru looking at his handy work in accommodating Kagome summoned his ball of energy and was in the battle field in a matter of seconds.
Sesshomaru saw Inuyasha was back to his normal golden eyes and stripe less face and battling Naraku and Kagura and was still standing but barely managing but not looking good in anyway.
Naraku being the coward he always is and was attacking from behind Kagura said demoness was attacking without mercy and had Inuyasha into a bloody pulp so he decided to help out a little and did a surprise attack on Kagura slicing of her arm that caught her of guard and she had no time to regenerate her arm so she backed up and stopped attacking, Naraku was staring at Kagura while said demoness was in pure shock but snapped out of it dodging a Dragon Strike from Tokijin in time.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Kikyo was now fighting of Kohaku and Hakudoshi with Anyaru because Kirara was busy protecting Sango that was laid on her back.
Kikyo was focused on shooting arrows at Hakudoshi and Anyaru at tackling Hakudoshi that they didn't notice Kohaku climb up Kirara and steal the jewel shards.
"I'm so sorry sister I don't want to do this anymore but…I have no escape…bye…see you soon sis…".
"Ko…Koha..ku…I'll…sa..ve…you…som..e…how…i…promise. .you….".
Kohaku gave one last longing glance at his big sister that showed all the sorrow he was in the pain and loneliness before turning around and running back to Naraku's side running past Hakudoshi and avoiding an arrow that Kikyo shot at him.
Hakudoshi saw Kohaku run by him and made a small miasma that took all of them by surprise and causing then to cover their nose and step back.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
After a while Naraku decided he had enough after Kohaku and Hakudoshi had come back with the jewel shards they had just stolen from Sango who was now in a thin line between life and death only being motivated to live bye sole purpose of the people she loves and cares for.
Inuyasha was a huge mass of cuts and blood but was standing up with the help of his Tetsuaiga with a heated look of hatred towards Naraku Sesshomaru had a deep slash in each his shoulders and his blood was slowly sliding down his hand and dripping in the ground he also had a deep cut in his left thigh and some dirt in his hakama and Haori.
Kagura had regain her arm but now had a deep hole in wich you could actually see true but strangely enough it was not bleeding a single bit.
Naraku only had an arm, his head and half his chest looking positively disgusting because of the spider legs he had sprouted to keep standing in the behalf of his legs being cut off.
Suddenly a huge thick and sick purple miasma appeared out of nowhere and engulfed the whole palace and Inuyasha and Sesshomaru had to step away and cover their noses because of the toxic and putrid smell into their very sensitive nose.
As soon as the miasma had come it was gone, there was no more castle, or Naraku and his minions, all that was left behind were dead demon bodies since there had been a lot of lower demons attacking in Naraku's behalf, trees and a huge patch of burnt grass and odd colored dirt and battle scars of Tetsuaiga and Tokijin's attacks.
Sesshomaru summoned his energy ball and in seconds was were he had left Kagome and saw she had her eyes open and had regain consciousness and was looking around her and that when she saw him her eyes grew big and started to try and cover herself, because of what she was wearing being almost naked, without a shirt her pants were all ripped and her thighs were exposed having a rip from the zipper till the knees, her bra just staying in place just because the bridge was half in place.
So to say the least she looked very undressed and indecent to anyone's eyes.
Sesshomaru saw that Kagome tried to stand up but the rash movement caused her to barely sit up and doubled in pain.
Sesshomaru took pity on her and started to undo his outer Haori and tossed it at Kagome.
"Cover yourself Woman".
Sesshomaru waited while Kagome dressed herself with his back turned to her.
'Did she look oddly sexy or what… if what is and option than this one shall take it…oh c'mon man don't be so mean you know she looked sexy… this one will not admit that even to his inner self…and how could this one think of her as 'sexy' while she is a bloody mess… grummble that makes her look all the more sexier…silence. Why don't you just return to your cage and leave this one alone for a while?… whatever but don't expect me to be less annoying the next time….grrrr…'.
Sesshomaru heard a very weak 'Done' from Kagome and saw she had already dressed herself in his outer Haori.
'hmm this one approves of how she looks… 'snort'…'.
Sesshomaru bended to half his height making his silver long hair cascade over his shoulder and got a hold of her waist and once he was to his full height and wrapped his tail under her knees supporting her in some kind of furry bridal style.
This was able to earn him a nice surprised and pain gasp from the little woman…well demoness in progress.
He then proceeded to summon his demon cloud and going to where he had left all the others.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Kagome felt a strong demonic aura approach her an she opened her eyes and glance around before focusing in what she was wearing.
'How many clothes will I waste in this era I mean c'mon I'll need to buy a full new wardrobe…and if anyone saw me it'd let nothing to the imagination c'mon I'm almost see through'.
She felt the demonic aura even closer.
'Man my powers are almost blurry from the pain and fatigue…what will I do if I don't…well do something…oh wait this demonic aura is from…' Kagome looked at the source of the demonic aura and saw Sesshomaru staring at her with a lifted eyebrow.
Kagome's eyes became as big as saucers it was the almighty lord Sesshomaru in all his glory looking at her.
And suddenly noticed she was not properly dressed and suddenly felt very self-conscious about it she then tried to get up and felt and acute pain in her abdomen so she ended up doubled up in pain and Kagome after regaining a little of breath from the pain glanced at Sesshomaru who was undoing his outer Haori and gave it to her.
"Cover yourself woman" demanded Sesshomaru giving her his back.
Kagome somehow managed to do what she was told without causing herself much excruciating pain.
She then saw Sesshomaru bent down without bending his knees causing his hair to cascade in beautiful silvery waves past his shoulder and down to Kagome's face and the floor under them making a little pool of hair.
'WTH why does he have such beautiful hair!'.
Then he suddenly snaked his hand in her waist and lifted her with one arm quickly and wrapping his tail under her knees so he could support her.
'OMG' Kagome gave a surprised gasp but soon it hurt her very much because of the sudden heavy intake of air made her wound in her throat hurt very much.
Kagome felt Sesshomaru summon his demon cloud and started to fly to what she assumed was where the others were.
"Why did you save me…and why are you doing this…you could have left me behind…" said Kagome in a little strained voice.
Sesshomaru looked down at the small and beaten woman and felt for the first time in a lot of time a bit of sadness for the woman in his grasp Sesshomaru did a mental note of not to leave the Woman in his arms to affect him in this kind of way…or at least not to let it show and decided to give her the most cold and emotionless answer he could think of.
"This one will not allow any of the members of his pack to be harmed or killed" was his icy and emotionless response
.
Kagome could have sworn the air he had just spoken with froze and made little snowflakes.
Kagome gave a last glance at Sesshomaru and said a small "Thanks" and received another icy response of a "Hn" before looking at where they were going and saw her friends severely wounded and exhausted she saw Inuyasha and Kikyo mount Anyaru and start following them while Kirara slowly adjust Sango and take flight behind them as well.
Kagome gasped severely at how she saw Sango and tears started to slide down her cheeks.
"Sango…No…".
Kagome hid her face in Sesshomaru's chest causing said demon to look at the crying woman in his arms and did what he could do at the moment because of his occupied members and his pride he growled in a soft and comforting way.
This made Kagome calm herself and fall into a soft dreamless sleep.
'Where did that come from?… from me you moron you were kind of occupied with your hand and tail and had no idea what to do. And it made her fall asleep..so cute… hn..this one insists that you are childish…nah it's called being sensitive heard of it… stop bothering this one and go back to sleep…sure…'.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
He speared a glance at Kagome and then looked below him and noticed Rin, Miroku, Jaken and Ah-Un looking very concerned and made a quick descent.
"Imp, monk hurry up and follow this one" demanded Sesshomaru In a tone that said defy-me-and-you-will-die-a-painful-and-slow-death h.
Then Sesshomaru started his way to edo again while Miroku grabbed Kagome's back pack and mounted Ah-Un while Rin grabbed the two headed dragon's leather vines and commanded it to fly after their lord.
Meanwhile Jaken got nearly left behind if not he had jumped and grabbed onto Ah-Un's tail must to the dragons despair.
'What happen to them…Sango, Kagome and Inuyasha…and I didn't even know…' was Miroku's sad thoughts while silently following the others.
