Chapter 10 - The Dream Eater

The seven years old Sesshomaru sat on a pool of blood on the floor, infront of him lies a seven years old Inuyasha. The little Sesshomaru licked his bloody claws and looked up at the adult Sesshomaru with an emotionless expression. Sesshomaru looked over at Inuyasha, the little pup was still breathing, but wounded badly. A strong intense demonic aura came up from behind adult Sesshomaru.

"Why did you kill your brother?" Inu no Taisho stood behind adult Sesshomaru, his face emotionless but his eyes red. Before Sesshomaru could react, Inu no Taisho Trust his hands at Sesshomaru, he dodged but not fast enough, his father's claws sliced his armor and dug into his flesh. Sesshomaru winced, he instinctively dashed towards Little Inuyasha, shoved his past self away and took Inuyasha out the room.

As he stepped out the room, he noticed that his surroundings are different. It was dark outside, so dark he could barely see anything. He looked down at Inuyasha in his arm. The little pup's blood was stainning his clothings. He brushed a strand of hair off Inuyasha's face, the little pup was sweating profusely and Sesshomaru could feel the heat coming out from Inuyasha's forehead. A spot light shone infront of him and there stood his seven years old self.

"Why did you save him?" Little Sesshomaru asked, his voice monotonous. Sesshomaru watched him cautiously. "He's just a hanyou and father loves him more than you now..."

Sesshomaru growled deeply, he didnt know why he's protecting Inuyasha, he just acted out of instinct.

"He'll kill you..."Little Sesshomaru grinned.

Sesshomaru felt a intense pain ripped through his stomach. He looked down, stunned. The little pup in his arm had eyes glowing red, his little claws stabbed through Sesshomaru's stomach, Sesshomaru's blood flowed from his wound, mixing with Inuyasha's. Sesshomaru backed down and felt to one knee, he dropped Inuyasha who now stood infront of him, smirking.

"Y...you.." Sesshomaru stuttered.

Present day

Inu no Taisho was awoken by a troubled aura. As he sat up he noticed Kiyoshimaru was standing at the room door, her face a mask of concern.

"You sense that too?" Inu no Taisho asked

"Yes..." Kiyoshimaru nodded then quickly exit the room "Sesshomaru.."

As they reached Sesshomaru's room, they spotted Inuyasha standing outside his room with Izayoi running towards him.

"Inuyasha?" Kiyoshimaru took a glaned at Inuyasha then Izayoi.

"Izayoi!" Inu no Taisho called out at the same time. "What are you doing here?"

"Inuyasha was troubled then he ran out." Izayoi explained

"I see, so he must have sensed it too." Inu no Taisho stated. Kiyoshimaru slid open Sesshomaru's door, a strong demonic aura almost pushed them back.

"Sesshomaru!" Inu no Taisho gasped, trying to forced his way in.

Infront of him, Sesshomaru was down to one knee, his left hand holding his chest and his eyes glowing red. Sesshomaru snarled at the intruders. Kiyoshimaru spotted Sesshomaru bleeding and rushed towards him but was taken aback when her son growled at her.

"Somethings wrong." Inu no Taisho studied Sesshomaru "Kiyoshimaru, get Inuyasha and Izayoi out of here!"

But before anyone could do anything, Sesshomaru's hand glowed green and he whipped it at Inuyasha. It hit Inuyasha on his right shoulder, the little pup yelped in pain as Izayoi quickly rushed to his side. Kiyoshimaru dashed towards Sesshomaru, holding him down as he struggles, Inu no Taisho jumped in a help.

"Izayoi! Get Inuyasha out of here, Sesshomaru seems to be targeting him!" Inu no Taisho ordered as he struggles to refraint Sesshomaru with Kiyoshimaru.

Izayoi carried Inuyasha and ran out as fast as she can, she was heading back to their room when Inuyasha suddenly leaped off her arms.

"Inuyasha!" Izayoi shouted and chased after him.

Inuyasha was writhing in pain in his mother's arm when he caught a strange scent and demonic aura, not one of his kind. He jumped off his mother's arms and ran towards the aura, ignoring his mother's cries. He didnt know why but he felt like he had to run towards the scent, he reached a small gap between two chambers, the place was dark, but at the end of the gap, Inuyasha noticed something there. He braved himself and walked in, he stopped in fear when he saw two red pairs of eyes staring back at him. Little Inuyasha gasped as he walked nearer.

A tapir-like demon, holding a dark orb stared back at Inuyasha. Its eyes glowed red at its intruder, the demon grinned, revealing its sharp teeth, saliva dripped from its mouth. Inuyasha noticed the orb its holding, he spotted Sesshomaru inside the orb along with his seven years old self, but what stunned him was when he saw himself in the orb hurting Sesshomaru. Inuyasha snarled at the demon, anger rised in him, eventhough Sesshomaru mistreated him, the little pup still loved his brother.

Izayoi reached Inuyasha just in time to see the little pup had lunged himself at something, she called out for Inuyasha. Inuyasha readied his claws, he didnt know where his courage and bravery came from, all he know was that no one messed with his brother. The Demon saw the attack, it calmly raised the dark orb and a black streak of light shot out from the dark orb and hit Inuyasha. Inuyasha found himself pinned to the ground, he tried to get up but couldnt. Soon, he felf the immense demonic aura trying to invade him. He struggled but it was no use, slowly he succumbed to darkness. The last thing he heard was his mother's voice.

Inuyasha awoke and found himself in a familiar dark cave. He couldnt see anything but he knew he had been here before due to the scent and the disgusting feeling of the surrounding. His fears took over as he remembered his experience in this cave and this time he was very sure Sesshomaru's not going to be there to save him. He shivered when he heard a hiss.

"N...no.." Inuyasha stuttered "It cant be..."

"Ohh yesssss." The snake demon loomed above Inuyasha, it's fangs bared dripping with venoms.

Little Inuyasha was paralyzed in fear, his nightmare has came back and no one was going to be there to save him. Inuyasha screamed at the top of his lungs.

"Sesshomaru! snap out of it!" Inu no Taisho shoved Sesshomaru against the wall. Sesshomaru continued struggling to break free.

"Something's not right" Kiyoshimaru panted, having trouble strainning her son.

"Yeah...Something's definitely not right..." Inu no Taisho said under his breath, then he heard Izayoi screamed. "This is not good, Kiyoshimaru, do you think you can hold Sesshomaru?"

"I'll try." Kiyoshimaru pinned Sesshomaru down on the floor though trying not to hurt him further.

Inu no Taisho rushed towards Izayoi. Izayoi was screaming for Inuyasha, it seemed that Inuyasha was trapped in a dark ball, the little pup was struggling inside, sweat poured profusely and the pup kept whimpering.
Izayoi was so worried, she tried to approaced Inuyasha but was pushed back by an invisible force. Inu no Taisho looked around and spotted the Tapir demon. He growled and his eyes turned red.

"No one messes with my family" Inu no Taisho roared and charged towards the demon. The demon noticed that and tried to get away but not fast enough as Inu no Taisho unsheathed Tetsusaiga and swung at it, sending it off to oblivion. Inu no Taisho stood there, panting, his anger dissipating But as he turned around to checked on Inuyasha, he was shocked. The dark ball was still there and he guessed that Sesshomaru had not yet recover.

"Hahahaha" The demon voice boomed. "You may have killed me lord demon but my nightmares will still eat your sons!"
