11. Birthing Miracle
Bright golden eyes blink away the water that accumulated in his eyes from the flash of the bright light. Inuyasha felt dizzy, as he explores the area of nothing that he somehow been injected to. All the half demon could remember was undesirable and unbearable pain and now everything felt numb. A light gentle female voice beckoned him to come forwards. The calm voice was gentle and comforting and he was positive that somewhere a long his life he had heard this tone before. The dog was nervous but walked forward. There was nothing to see, but he continued to walk, the voice became louder and louder. The closer he got to the voice the warmer he felt. It was not uncomfortable warmth in fact he wanted it his body had felt so cold. "I have the answers you seek."
The boy stopped, "Who are you?" Inuyasha frantically screamed out to the sky. The only response poor Inuyasha receive was silence. "Please don't abandon me, if there something I am supposed to be seeking tell me and I'll search."
A few tense silence moments fell between the unknown and Inuyasha before the voice reluctantly said one word…
"Sesshomaru"
XOXOXO
"You really have outlived your purpose." A chill ran down Kagome's spine as Naraku's voice promised death in the shell of her ear.
Tears immediately filled Kagome's coco brown eyes; she began to plea for her life. The palm of Naraku's right hand slid down her rounded stomach. The young girl's knees buckled. Naraku held her up, as his miasma began to take effect on her. "Naraku why…?" She struggled to speak, the miasma burning her lungs, "Kill Sesshomaru now." She digs helplessly at the spider demon's wrist, "Wasn't that the plan." Tears stream mercilessly down here face, she began to shake her head widely side to side.
Naraku was enjoying her squirm; this is how he liked his victims. "Too late," Naraku sang lightly in her ears. Naraku bite down on a vein in her neck as he injected a high concentrate of his own deadly mixture of venom into her body. A strangled scream flew from her lips.
"There's more…" Kagome desperately whimper out, "The world is bigger than the west."
Naraku simply laughs as he drops the girl unceremoniously on the ground. He spat the blood that had filled his mouth on her. His poison mixed in burning her skin. "Your own purpose now is nutrition." With his appendages he removes the jewel from her bellybutton.
The pain was instant and unbearable. She had thought that she had gone numb, yet she could feel every movement from the inside of her. A thrill scream erupted from her raw throat as blood was forced up her esophagus. She clawed at her stomach, she felt her inside physically ripping apart. Kagome lifts her head up as he eyes widen as a long, slippery spidery leg rip through her stomach. She opened her mouth but no sound came out. Blood squirted down her body in a heavy shower. Frantically she tries to get up, but kept falling back on the gore on the once pristine floor. She could feel the abomination inside her clawing its way out. Her skin kept thrusting up in random location as the child attack. More and more appendages escape. Kagome screams her stomach splits down the middle as dark wet mop of hair made it present. With the last frantic effort Kagome searches the floor widely, her hands lands on the blade, she had threaten Inuyasha with before, without hesitation she grabs hold with all intention of stabbing the animal, she was desperate to stop the pain.
Gliding over to Kagome's fallen body, Naraku steps on her hand. The blade pierces right through. "Calm down," Naraku smirks as the futuristic priestess plead for her life with teary eyes, "it is only childbirth."
Dark coco brown eyes snap, and a soul shattering screams explodes from the fallen woman. Eight identical spider legs fully split her open as the young spider emerge from Kagome's womb.
It had the body of a 3 month old baby; it held itself up with the spider legs. Unlike newborn's it did not cry with its first breath. It followed its own instincts as feed upon his mother's flesh. Carefully Naraku sends his aura to the child surrounding it. It pays the older spider no attention. Naraku ventures closer. Naraku's chest swelled with pride. He was a real father, a creator, at this point Naraku felt like a god. He sends his aura again, only this time stronger than before. The child recognizes the strength and stops. The small round face turns to the source. The eyes are not open; it is soaked in blood and covered with a white milky substance. Long spider legs fumble over each other as the baby tries to maneuver over the carcass. It brings its body as low to the ground as possible. Naraku takes it as an act of submission.
Naraku kneels so his almost level with the creature but at a distance. For a few tense moments each body remain stiff. The older spider can't be patient anymore. A long slender digit reaches out to touch.
In a flash the child springs up. It fangs elongate as it tries to inject toxins into the dark demon. Naraku laughs as he grabs the child by the side of the face and forces it down into submission. Naraku could only laugh, "Such weak poison." He pushes his miasma into the child, "Taste strength" he coos. The creature kicks and screams widely, oversized eyes open as its muscles involuntarily contracted.
Naraku stops his on slaughter. Grabbing the creature's cheeks he forces it to look at him. "I am your god." He takes the poison out of the child's blood stream, "You'll obey me." Bright coco honey eyes look at him. Instinctively it submits bowing his head low and resting the urge to fight. Naraku finally took a moment to realize that the creature was male. Naraku also notice the tip of his finger was turning purple and it bought a small smile on his face, this child will be unbelievable. If Naraku himself wasn't made up of venom, he is positive that the child would have done him in. He cuts his own finger and sucks the contaminated blood. He brings the young boy into his arms, "You will show me what you can do?" The young child's eyes flash dangerous red.
"I am a failure my lord," Natsume answers back without hesitation. "I cannot be the one to kill you.'' Sesshomaru opens his mouth to demand that Natsume does what he is told. The fox cut him off before any sound can come out. "Lord Sesshomaru, your enemy stands before you, if you wish to die without a fight." He places his hands on Sesshomaru shoulders as he forces the man to look at him, "Inuyasha's death would be in vain."
Sesshomaru shakes his head, "He's dead." the beast whimpers as Sesshomaru falls unconscious in his subconscious.
Natsume gently smacks the side of Sesshomaru's face as he tries to bring him back to conscious. Natsume jumps back surprised when Sesshomaru's hand shots out and grabs his wrist. Natsume turns to the lord to only be greeted by deep rubicund eyes. He stammers the lord's name out in a whisper. "Dead-Dead-Dead," The beast chanted, each time he repeated the world the louder and anger he got. Battered and tattered and in the most un-Sesshomaru manner the beast attacked.
Natsume quickly retreats he was giving no orders; he had no right to intervene. Natsume dismiss such a cowardly idea, he knew at the drop of a hat, he would sacrifice his own life for Sesshomaru. Blending back into the shadows, Natsume kept himself hidden; if nothing else, he could have the element of surprise on his side.
His grace, his precision, his fighting style was all forgotten as Sesshomaru claws hacked away at the barrier that surrounded Naraku and child. His aura flares as he pushes forward. He began to transform once again, except this time he wasn't going to hold back. The beast stood on his hind legs and with full force he pushed down on the top of his enemy's barrier. Sesshomaru could feel the shield bend underneath him. He jumps back on his hide legs once again. This time when he came down he closed his massive jaws around the dome. He could feel the poison leak out of the barrier, but he couldn't bring himself to care. Prolonging his life wasn't important; he had one mission, ending Naraku's
