Recap from last chapter:"You will not go any further, Inuyasha is now mine.", Naraku's voice seemed to boom from out of nowhere along with his miasma that was now thick in the air, it's toxic-ness killing some of the plant life. He quickly turned around, his haori flying madly in the wind. He wouldn't fail Inuyasha, he would kill Naraku and they will live happily.

"He is not yours to take!", he barked out, sounding more like an order than a statement.

"Oh?, then we'll just have to see about that.", he said as a smile spread across his face as he sent his demonic insects and hoards of youkai flying at him under his order...

Sesshomaru's POV

He quickly pulled out Tokijin that was hidden within his haori, it resembling a long hilt Indian Khanda ( Basket hilted two-handed Khanda ) , a double-edged straight sword which is wider at tip and narrower at base, it also has a yellow cross guard, red hilt and yellow round pommel with a red thread tied to it. He was definitely satisfied with his weapon and could take care of the youkai quickly. Naraku on the other hand would take a little more effort than lower leveled youkai.

Side stepping out of the way he brought his feet to a steady fighting stance, ready for any surprise attack that Naraku might pull if he was anything like he was before. He fed energy to the sword, wanting to get rid of all of the insects and lower level youkai's so he could face him one on one. He took a deep breath, stabled his energy flow and released an attack called Kenatsu in small needles towards the youkai. The squealing and roaring of them dying satisfied him to no end, it was one of his favorite moves. And if he could he would brag about it, but being a prince he wouldn't be as rude to do so.

His right foot slid in the direction of Naraku just as he thrust forward a sword made of his own flesh, the smell of miasma got worse the more they clashed swords. The jolt of each hit rang all over his body, it's like holding two metal swords and feeling the vibration all the way up your arm. He grit his teeth together trying to finish this worthless fight to get to Inuyasha.

"Stop hiding Inuyasha Naraku! He's done nothing to you! Just let him go! Besides, don't you have that wench Kikyo?", Sesshomaru sucked in another breath ready for the next attack.

"Don't mention that wench again! You only anger me, I shall demolish you right now!", he plunged his sword into Sesshomaru's arm with his anger. The smell of iron and salt rising to his nose as he pulled out quickly wanting to jab at him again.

The pain in his arm could've been worse. In fact, if he let his guard down again then he could just kiss his arm goodbye. He staggered away from the blade that kept coming and coming again, the blade coming so close that it cut strands of his hair. The wound bled profusely soaking his haori and dripping down to his pants, he would have to fight with one arm to lessen the movement of the arm to try to get it to stop bleeding. He huffed as he barely avoided yet another blow Naraku delivered. He didn't want to use extreme methods to kill him, but it was beginning to be unavoidable.

"Stop this fighting already before I slit your throat and feed you to the lower yokai you so despise! What I said about Kikyo must've clouded your judgement if you think you can kill me!", the wind blew on his warm flesh violently as he thought of his next move. Naraku grunted from pain as I landed a blow to his side, but his wound healed right away even when the sword was still in him. Yes, he devoured anything that had power, a selfish demon that only cared for himself.

He thought of how he used to be like that too before he had met Inuyasha. The huffs of breath from his enemy and his own reminded him that he was still in battle. He decided to play dirty since he was too, using the healing abilities every time he took a blow. Sesshomaru took a quick breath and leaped into the air, easily sailing thanks to his slender muscles. He used Kenatsu once again towards Naraku, but this time he turned completely around in the air till he was behind him and landed a blow to the back of his head.

Big mistake. Tokijin went all the way through his head when Naraku started to pulse. The skin expanded and reached out to the sword and dragged him with it. His entire left arm now fully encased in Naraku's body, trying to pull out tore at the skin as the miasma slowly ate at his energy.

Inuyasha's POV

Jolting awake he felt massive amounts of energy being used. He quickly sat up, the chains digging into his wrists slightly. He would've thought that it would be any demon, but the scent was familiar and barely anybody had that much demonic energy. Quickly gathering his thoughts he thought about who it could've been that would fight that hard. When he finally realized who it could be you could probably see a small light bulb light above his head because it was so obvious. 'Sesshomaru is that you fighting out there?', a rush of happiness came over him, until he could smell the blood. His heartbeat quickened when he realized that it wasn't Naraku's blood that was being spilled. He was suddenly furious at himself that he couldn't help him. He tried to stand, but was restricted by the cold metal chains attacked to his wrists. Another flash of anger as he began to tug on them as hard as he could, the edges of the metal slicing into the skin. He grit his teeth as he pulled even harder, the blood from his wrists falling on the floor. His breath quickened when he felt one of the energies getting weaker and he pulled even harder. Tears stung his eyes as he thought that he might end up being the cause of Sesshomaru's death. He wouldn't let anyone die for him again, he remembered the dead eyes of his mother, how lifeless they had been.

He needed power, he needed to save him like he hadn't been able to for his mother. He was going to do it with or without his stupid inner youkai. He tugged once again as hard as he could, but this time he was surprised that there was no resistance from the chain and flew flat on his face. He got up and groaned as he felt for any broken or lost teeth. When he found none he got up quickly without even looking at the broken chain and ran as fast as he could in the pitch black darkness.

'I know this must look weird if anyone was watching', he thought to himself as he licked his finger then put it in the air trying to find some sort of breeze. 'So, there's a breeze west... Lets just hope that there isn't a whole bunch of booby traps..', he quickly ran west trying to find a way out of the cave.

After stumbling around in the dark a bit he could finally see the light from outside. Another burst of speed and he was quickly out. The outside breeze would've brought some comfort if it wasn't for the scent of blood in the air. He didn't even have to look for the fighting scene because half of the forest was already destroyed.

He was ready to fight any foe, any enemy, but the bloody scene before him almost made him double over and vomit on the ground. A creature, if you could call it a creature, had Sesshomaru partly inside of it!

"Gah! Let go Naraku!", Sesshomaru said as he coughed up some blood.

"Sesshomaru!", I screamed, his bloody figure seemed about to fall at any moment. He needed to be treated right away. 'Goddamn it! Why doesn't my youkai work when I want it to!'.

His eyes turned to me as he let out a sigh, "Inuyasha, I'm glad your alright..", he said as his legs gave out from under him giving in to the creature trying to devour him.

"Sesshomaru!", no time to think, only time to act. He saw Sesshomaru go farther into the creature as he sprang into action. No plan, just rush ahead, be as merciless as possible. He would die trying to save him just like Sesshomaru would've done for him.

With what he would've thought was his last battle cry he attacked as much as he could and as fast as he could. He dug his claws into the creature as deep as he could but pulled out fast enough so it couldn't devour him. He felt a burning in his throat as more of the purple poison wafted into the air. Still he went on, often jumping into the air to land a drop kick to inflict as much damage as possible.

He went to attack with his nails again when he realized that his nails were melted off by the creatures blood. He began to breathe unsteadily as he wobbled on his feet, his eyesight slightly wavering. He could still see Sesshomaru's face and hoped that he was still alive somehow.

The creature was beginning to switch from the defensive to the offensive side as his skin began to grow in size. He barely dodged as the creature's skin shot out at him, it's seemingly blunt skin grazed the side of Inuyasha's arm as it began to bleed and sting from the poison. Attack after attack it seemed to get bored with playing with him, he was bleeding all over. A cut on his head was spilling blood over one of his eyes and wouldn't stop bleeding.

The demon stopped fighting him all together and focused mainly on devouring Sesshomaru. Inuyasha went wild with rage and started attacking frantically. "Sesshomaru!", he screamed with tears coming into his eyes as he saw his face get immersed into the creature, cutting off his air supply if he was still alive. He did a wild dash forward towards the creature and plunged his hand into it, not stopping until he could feel his beloved's face. He desperately tried to get him out but he got pulled in with him. Loosing air, skin burning from the poison, he passed out still cupping Sesshomaru's face.

"Sooo champ? Can't cha do anything without me?" The white youkai looked smugly over at Inuyasha. "But is was interesting watchin ya try so hard, even got yourself pretty beat up eh?", he snickered with that last comment.

"You have no right to say anything about it, it's not like you helped me in the slightest way! You could've prevented Sesshomaru's death...", I said remembering the bloodied figure of his love.

"Oh shut up will you wanker! He's not dead yet and neither are you so stop those useless tears! You seriously think you can die? Then what kept you alive all these years? Willpower? No. I'll help you soon enough, but before I do I have to ask you one question. If I could grant you power it may unlock things you won't understand, things that can make you accidentally kill people by accident if you don't control it. It may even kill your beloved. Are you sure you want this power? You cannot block this power again and neither can someone else, even so, will you accept it?", the youkai stared into my eyes and seemed to find the answer deep within my soul.

"Yes, I want power! What is a life without Sesshomaru? If I can't save Sesshomaru then life is meaningless! I would take any burden: guilt, loneliness, despair, and betrayal! Just please help me save him! I'd do anything!", Never had I known what this power could do, never could one know the consequences.

"Fine, don't tell me that I didn't warn you.", the youkai smiled sadly and faded.

"How do I save him!", I had no idea what to do, but my question was soon cut short as a surging energy seemed to slam into my bones, my very core.

The hanyou was thrashing and writhing in pain. The sensation of his bones melting rocked his core, nausea rising as he dug his nails into his flesh. He opened his mouth and let out a blood curtailing scream as the surge of energy seemed to grow wider, expanding. He couldn't see in front of him, his vision was all white as he groped around trying to feel something. He licked his lips and found his own body scalding hot as it burnt his tongue. The energy was spreading to every pore in his body, it was finally starting to reach his fingertips and feet. His hands curled into balls at his sides as he waited for the pain to subside.

After what seemed like hours the pain lessened, a tingly sensation left in the muscles as he tried to move, still hoping that he could feel Sesshomaru. His hands reached out feeling for anything in his temporarily blind state when he felt silk. 'This must be Sesshomaru's haori!', he was almost giddy as he clutched the object and pulled it closer. He could feel Sesshomaru now, the rise of his chest uneven, breath shallow. He had to do something, but what? He was blinded! Inuyasha clutched him even harder in his frustration when he heard the breathing stop. Pulling away and he listened for his breathing, but nothing came. 'That reminds me, how am I breathing?', he couldn't help but think even in the heat of the moment. "Sesshomaru!", he croaked out barely audible. His senses were off, he wasn't breathing either and when he called Sesshomaru's name that was the last of his breath. Please live! Where his last thoughts as a blinding white light shot out from all around him, passing out once again, but this time embracing the one who saved him, the person who showed him the light of the world..

Authors Note: Sorry it took so long you guys! I have a really hard time with action scenes and I still don't think I did the action scenes right! Does anyone else have any advice on how to do it like a pro? I've also been very busy with the school projects that are required of me before I can go to the Early College. I wouldn't have taken so long, but I redid the action scenes at least 5 times! I'm glad that I have fans that enjoy my work, but I'm worried that i'm not good enough yet. But oh well, I guess practice would improve my writing skills. Thank you for reading this chapter! Please review!
