Chapter 10

The battle inside the castle was fast approaching. Koga was in position, lurking in the shadows of the castle. The rest of the spies along with Stalker started moving in as well. The castle was going to be taken in a matter of minutes all they needed was the howl. Once Koga gave his warning howl they would start attacking anyone on King Taisho's side. The only one who could save the kingdom was the least experienced in battle and not even a full demon.

As things at the castle started to unfold. Kagome and Sesshomaru were nearing the battle field. With the Shikon Jewel safely hidden in her pocket, she continued following the tall demon in front of her. She started wondering what would it feel like to run her hands through his long silver hair or even wash it. 'Wait what am I thinking. He'd kill me if I even touched his shoulder by accident.' But for some reason she kept thinking about what it would feel like to touch him. Before she knew it he had stopped in front of her. With her mind in a daze she didn't know he had stopped. She bumped into him then fell backwards onto her butt.

He looked back at her not saying a word. Then reached his clawed hand down to help her up. She blushed when his hand took hers. She felt the firmness of his grip and knew that there was something about him that she couldn't escape. 'I'm falling in love with him? And what about InuYasha, I feel something for him too. However this feeling I'm getting for Sesshomaru is different. It can't be love, no I can't he's a demon.' Her thoughts stopped when he spoke.

"You must take cover, stay low and only fire when you know the shot will kill." After those words Sesshomaru took action and started to fight. Kagome was surprised how quick everything had happened. One minute he was helping her up and the next he was attacking the enemy. He gave her plenty of cover and soon she hid under a large tree. The roots were huge and the small area under the tree base felt safe to her. She took his advice and only fired her bow when the shot would kill.

There were times she couldn't see him and times she could. It surprised her how fast he was, almost a blur. 'Why does Sesshomaru stick in my mind all of a sudden? And why do I feel bad for InuYasha?' A loud roar took her back to the task at hand. Her thoughts would have to wait till things were safe. She readied her bow and fired, killing another enemy.

Out in the open field things were happening a little more different. King Taisho's army was slowly being over powered. Still they fought on, demons and half demons continued to give their all. King Taisho decided to retreat for the time being. The army needed to regroup and rest. "Stand back men, we need to regroup." King Taisho yelled to his men. He covered his men as they fled. He pulled Sounga from its sheath and called his attack. "Dragon Twister!"

A huge twister of lightening and dirt roared towards King Raion's army. With the massive twisters strength, hardly anyone was left. King Taisho sheathed his sword and made his way back to his men. He needed to have his own injuries tended to as well.

A half dazed Lion demon moved a few rocks off him. "Damn you Taisho, I will make you pay for this. I King Raion, will win this war yet." He started to roar with laughter. "So my men will take the castle and with that hopeless half demon son of yours as its only protection. Well let's just say you won't have a castle or any lands to rule." Raion kept laughing as he stood and soon made his way towards King Taisho's castle.

He hit the castle wall hard almost getting knocked out from the blow. "Heh, you really are a terrible fighter dog boy." Koga said, as he ready his claws for a final attack.

InuYasha rolled out of the way just in time. "Keh, I'm not done yet you mangy wolf." He slowly stood and raised his sword. "We'll just see who's weak you smelly wolf." He charged at Koga swinging his sword for the wind scar.

With Koga's quick moves he jumped over InuYasha, then landed kick to his back. The kick sent InuYasha fly forward. He rolled to a stop spitting out dirt. "Looks like I'm to fast for you mutt face. You'd be smart to give up now, at least you can walk away alive." Koga cracked his knuckles and charged InuYasha again. This time he hit hard punching InuYasha hard in the chest. The sound of bones cracking made the wolf demon smile then he gave a mighty victory howl.

InuYasha gave a mighty cry of pain as Koga's fist impelled his chest. One of his cracked ribs punctured his lung. It hurt to breath that alone fight. No he had to keep going, the kingdom was counting on him, Kagome was too. 'Kagome.' He whispered in his head. What if she was still alive he couldn't give up, he would keep fighting just to know what happened to her. He pulled his injured body up off the ground using the Tetsusaiga for support. "You just made a big mistake wolf boy. And now it's over, you thought I was weak, but now you'll see."

A loud explosion caught InuYasha's attention. "What the hell was that?!" He demanded. Koga merely grinned. "What's going on you bastard, tell me now!"

"Don't you get it mutt, you've lost. Right now the rest of my king's men that are in the castle are taking over. You've lost dog boy. It's sad really to think the great Inu No Taisho left his castle in the safety of your hands. This kingdom will soon belong to King Riaon."

InuYasha growled with frustration. He wasn't done yet, there was more fight left in him. "You're wrong, I'm not done just yet wolf boy." He sheathed his sword and cracked his own knuckles. "Let's dance."

Koga was surprised by InuYasha's will. And his fighting was stronger. "You're getting tired pup, so just give you already." Koga mocked.

InuYasha on the other hand could hear the screams of people inside the castle. He needed to end the fight now, but how? He could barely fight as it was.
