Chapter 12
InuYasha continued to move as he was stuck to the wall. Impatiently, he snarled at the demon, "Get to your point, you fucking dim-wit." Another sinister grin crested his lips.
"InuYasha, quite edgy aren't you? You must tell your story in a certain manner to keep your audience begging for more."
"Right now, I couldn't care less how you tell it. Say what you're going to say or shut the hell up." InuYasha scoffed, starring at the Goyasanku as he continued, "Very well then. I knew what I was obligated to do but never did it occur to me of the events that could take place afterwards."
Flashback
A small boy with the appearance of Goyasanku grazed the adamant based halls of his home. He wondered around in search of his father, the leader of the Adamant Ward in the south. Continuing, the young Goyasanku came to a room that was dimly lit with candles. Soft voices echoed out of the room as a male and a female figure conversed.
"Why don't you let me help with the battle?" a feminine voice asked the man who answered the gruffness.
"No, that is out of the question. I would never forgive myself I something was to happen."
"I don't understand you know I am perfectly capable of protecting myself. Why won't you let me help you? What if something were to happen to you?"
"It doesn't matter if something happened to me, as long as you are safe from harm. I would gladly give my life to so that nobody would risk the well-being of you; my love, and my family." Within the distance, the boy watched as the two silhouettes stood from sitting and embraced each other.
"Revolting!" the words softly rolled off his lips as he left the room.
-----
Goyasanku ran down the halls, a devious smile placed upon his lips, as he located the vacant room. Listening for any evidence of any individuals passing by, Goyasanku then walked towards a special wall. There was a small hole, one that the young boy did create himself to specify his secret path. Though he was a a young boy merely about ten years old, he could control a somewhat efficient enough amount of adamant to accomplish his tasks. Swinging his hand in a U-shaped motion, the adamant literally crawled away from the center of the hole, leaving a big enough gape fr him to crawl through. Getting on his hands and knees, Goyasanku crept into the hole without any light. With a look of satisfaction, he held his hand out with it opened. Closing it into a fist, the gap immediately closed up.
-----
A female figure stood in a distance room daintily flicking her wrist to form adamant. Without her knowing, a small boy entered the room closing the entrance, he came from.
"Mother!" a plea comae from him as the demoness embraced him.
"What is the matter my child?" she asked waiting for the small boy's response.
"Nothing..." the young Goyasanku made a firm grip on her apparel, "I just wanted to say...good-bye."
"Wha-?" Before she could finish her statement, she gasped as a piece of adamant stroke her heart. Kneeling in pain, she finally collapsed to the floor.
End Flashback
"You killed your own mother!" Kagome looked at the demon in disgust.
"Indeed but then there is more my dear. Seems that instead of having to kill the man I once admired, I thought that if I killed the thing keeping him from his destiny then he would be the strong, ruthless, leader that he used to be but I was wrong. When he found out that my mother was killed, he became weaker. I then decided that I should go after him and when I trained with adamant so I could make a strong enough piece that could penetrate his hard exterior and strike him in his very being. It was before our people were going to battle, I confronted my father but the people of the other wards attacked. We were about to win when my father was battling the leader. I came out of hiding when I thought we were victorious, so I made my move."
Flashback
Goyasanku's father stood, his legs spread apart in a ready position, hands opened held by his sides ready to thrust adamant or raise a barrier in case of an attack. The young boys suddenly stood straight behind him and held his left arm in front while the right arm was held straight to the side. Quickly, he swung his left arm down towards his left side while he lifted his right arm over his head and back like his left arm. Once both his arms were behind his head, his right arm circled upward back towards his front with his left arm motioning the same movement as his opposite arm. He swung his right arm with his left arm mimicking behind, downward towards his back. Finally after his arms came together, Goysanku built enough momentum and brought his left foot to his right knee. Forcefully stepping forward, he pushed his arms in front of him causing adamant to come shooting out of his palms as he called out to his father. The leader of the wards turned to son only to have adamant strike through his chest where his adamant mark laid. Unexpectedly, a piece of adamant came spiraling past Goyasanku's cheek causing a minor cut; a scratch. The opponent, his father had been facing, weakly sent adamant at the boy who would be the new leader. With all the strength he had left, Goyasanku's father sent a blockade of adamant knocking they boy back into an underground cave. His father seated his unconscious son into an adamant based tavern before he fell to his death along with everybody else on the battle field.
End Flashback
"The battle continued while I laid unconscious in the tavern. Once I gained enough strength, I was able to free myself from the tavern." Goyasanku finished his story until Miroku decided to question him.
"Then how is it that you came to these Western Lands, when you resigned in the South?" Glimpsing up at the imprisoned monk who seemed to have an interest in the demon's background.
"That was quite easy, I had to first take hold of demonic power or sacred energy to become stronger. Sometimes I had to result to taking the mere souls of humans if nothing stronger was within reach. Once I did I then possessed mortals so I could travel to the west."
"Please do explain to us why it was such an importance to head West?" Miroku continued to ask, searching for efficient enough answers.
"You see as I discussed with the two priestesses before, there was talk among the villages of a mysterious girl that traveled through time and was claimed to be the reincarnation of a powerful priestess. The priestess was killed and now walked with the living as the dead and the reincarnation was suppose to have traveled along with a half-demon looking for a valuable item." The adamant demon mildly looked down upon the two priestesses, "Hearing this information, I knew that these two could help me succeed in my world conquest plan to follow in the footsteps of my father and be ruler but I want to be the leader of so much more. Not just a ward but all of lands."
Looking at the adamant, he grinned then took his arms off his thighs. Then uncrossing his legs, he stepped down off the blockade and turned towards the hanyou.
"It's almost time." Goyasanku stated as a pair of red eyes glared opaquely through the darkened corners of the cave. They watched as Goyasanku continued to send more adamant into the air for one final time before preparing for the ceremony.
-----
More adamant was spread throughout the are by the possessed victims. Suddenly, a bundle of pieces were sent soaring into the sky. A small girl wearing a orange and yellow checkered kimono with a green sash, noticed the sparkling minerals coming toward her.
"Look, my lord." she merely stated at a full fledged dog demon. He had silver hair, golden-amber eyes, and claws resembling InuYasha's. Only he had pointed ears, two purple stripes on each cheek, and a blue crescent moon on his forehead.
"That's adamant, Rin, get away from it." the demon said but it was to late, the pieces started to fuse with Rin.
"Help me...Lord Sesshomaru..." the little girl managed to squeal before she was totally possessed.
"Rin..." Sesshomaru shouted as she ran away towards the tavern.
"Lord Sesshomaru...what has happened to Rin?" a green imp with a two headed staff asked the dog demon. Barely looking at the imp, he merely sated, "Jaken, stay here." Then Sesshomaru ran of in the direction that Rin took off in. Jaken stood in confusion as a two-headed dragon stood behind him.
"Ah-Un, Lord Sesshomaru wants us to stay here." Jaken sighed as he pulled the dragon's reigns towards a tree.
