Chapter 12
We're Goin in Pt.2
It was pure and utter chaos outside and inside the castle. There was blood everywhere as forces clashed and slaughtered each other. Those with adequate healing abilities healed as many wounded soldiers as they could but it seemed more came in than they could send out. The other side wasn't doing so well either as the mindless demons was slain only to be replaced by more.
Inside the barrier was almost eviscerated if only the forces could hold them back for a couple more minutes. Kagome began chanting faster and faster to speed up the process and Sesshomaru and Miroku followed quickly pushing all they had into it. Finally just as the mass attack was about to push the forces to their limit the barrier broke and the wail of the pups were heard across the field making everyone freeze for a minute. Kagome stood and race over to the crib to look over her pups doing a quick scan to make sure they were unharmed. Kiramaru cried in frustration, Chiyemi wailed in fear, and Yoshimaru was growling in anger. Kagome and Sesshomaru let their scent and aura wash over the pups soothing them to slumber. She quickly summoned her chest carrier from the future and placed them in it.
"Quickly mate teleport them home" Sesshomaru said
"I can't it'll take more energy to teleport more than me and they're too young for me to teleport, it will harm them." She said as she cloned herself, Sesshomaru and the babies. She turned to the clones "quickly draw their attention and run to the east keep them distracted as long as possible so we can the pups to safety, NOW GO!"
The clones nodded as Kagome and Sesshomaru masked their and the babies' scents and aura while the clones ran into the hall grabbing the enemies' attention and taking off.
"They're getting away! Do not let them escape if possible bring them all back alive and DO NOT harm the bastard pups!" the leader shouted "you six stay and help finish these peasants off"
Kagome deduced that enough time had passed and stepped into the hall. She looked at the leader who was fighting the general and let he poison whip fly killing the surrounding enemy men before wrapping it around the stunned man's neck.
"My pups are not bastards!" Kagome hissed then smirked "I believe their father would like to correct your error"
Sesshomaru walked over to the man who now trembled before him.
"Please, mi lord, mercy" the man fearfully whispered
"I own a lot of things, unfortunately mercy is not one of them" Sesshomaru said and swung his claws shredding the man's throat, watching blood flowed out as the corpse fell to the ground.
"We must go reinforcements will be here soon" Kagome said as Sesshomaru picked her up and leapt from the window landing and putting her down when he landed. They took off to the west hurrying to make sure they distanced themselves between the battles. They soon made it to the twins handing the children off to them hiding their aura's immediately taking off as they made several clones and scattered.
Kagome and Sesshomaru rushed back to the battle and soon started tearing through enemies quickly. The ratio of Naraku's army and their army started slowly leaning in their direction as the hoards lessened bit by bit. There were battles all around them going let, right, backwards, forward, and even above.
Shippo was slashing enemy after enemy taking pleasure in their blood splashing on his face. He spotted white hair and at first mistook it for Sesshomaru until he caught glimpse of a young face then he quickly started working his way over to the unsuspecting male. After he found the frustration in unrelenting hoards of demons he took to the sky joining Rin and the other air bound demons.
"Rin give me cover I'm going for him" he said taking off stalking Hakudoshi before Rin could reply. He knew Rin would keep any attackers off his back while he closed in. he finally got close enough watching the boy use his power to cut down some of the opposing army. Shippo silently cut his power going into a free fall, eyes caught on the male. He moved to a face first position gathering some flames in his palms as he closed in. he watched as Hakudoshi laughed thinking that he'd driven off members of the greatest army of all the lands, but he knew they knew what was coming and fell back to give him room. Just as the boy looked up it was too late, with a feral snarl he slammed into the boy his flames dealing a lot of damage.
Everyone peered over at the crater that had formed with the two males inside. The distraction gave Sesshomaru the chance to locate Naraku and clear some area around him. He gave a giant leap getting closer only to be blocked by a man that resembled Naraku slightly. The only difference was his skin was more sun kissed and he had yellow-orange eyes and his inky black hair was tipped with golden brown edges; the black jewel in his forehead seemed out of place a bit.
"I wouldn't advise going after the master." He said
"I see you're another offspring of his" Sesshomaru said coldly 'this shall be easy'
"Why yes I am" he said smirking as he looked over Sesshomaru "and you must be the father of those nasty rats Naraku kidnapped. I wonder if those male pups will grow to be as good looking as there daddy"
Sesshomaru's jaw gave and unnoticeable tick as he tensed ever so slightly in disgust at the openly roaming eyes of the male.
"You are a fine specimen it's a shame I have to kill you" he chuckled "you would have made a wonderful little bed warmer but no matter….I was promised your daughter anyways. It will be a pleasure to teach her how to please me"
"A teacher, hn, Give me your name leech" Sesshomaru said as calmly as he could muster 'I'd like to know the name of the pathetic wretch before obliterate him into nothingness''
"So rude. Kyomu" he said smirking wider "shall we begin this lesson in manners?"
"You must excuse this Sesshomaru fore I've killed every etiquette teacher I've had" he smirked "and you shall be no different"
"Oh you'll find I'm very different" he laughed and with that he charged at Sesshomaru
'The fool thinks he's good enough to take me with a head on attack? I shall end him quickly' Sesshomaru waited for him to get closer then ran his claws through the man's gut smiling until he heard laughter he looked at the hand protruding from the mans back to see no blood, guts, or flesh. 'What kind of sorcery is this?'
"I told you I was quite different" he laughed then slammed his elbow into Sesshomaru's back. Unfortunately it didn't faze Sesshomaru, but it did serve to piss him off more. Sesshomaru jumped away surveying his opponent trying to find something that will help "hmmm, does doggy not want to play anymore?"
Duck, dodge, avoid is how it went for the last ten minutes serving to piss Sesshomaru off further. He watched as Kyomu charged again only this time something brown and furry sped fast as a foot kicked the scum in the face. Sesshomaru smirked as Kouga appeared behind their opponent.
"I swear I mentioned to somebody that they were to get me when the final battle took place" he growled annoyed
"You were the last thing on our minds since the bastard half-breed had our pups" Sesshomaru shot back "however your entrance is greatly appreciated as it gave this Sesshomaru the opportunity to find this filth's weakness"
"Glad to help" Kouga said as they simultaneously charged. Sesshomaru aimed him as Kouga aimed low; Kouga gasped as he wound up going straight through but Sesshomaru smirked at the sickening crunch of breaking bones as the mans face crumbled. They stood looking at the man "what the hell!"
"Indeed, that is what I've been dealing with, but apparently his face isn't quite as translucent" Sesshomaru said "but this Sesshomaru can't help but feel there's more to this than we are seeing"
He watched closely as the man's face shifted piecing bone back together to reveal an unharmed and intact face. The spawn began laughing as the jewel on his head flashed. Sesshomaru looked at Kouga and began to speak to him in the old inu language which sounded like a series of barks and growls to the man. Kouga answered back thankful that their languages were almost identical. Kyomu listened annoyed that he didn't understand what they were doing. He watched as they seemed to come to a resolve and glared at him. Kouga relaxed his stance leaving him practically open for an attack.
"Fool" the spawn said until Kouga pointed behind him he turned in time to feel the sting of a poison whip around his neck. He felt it pulling him towards to the dog demon then a fist connected with his face. He jumped away but found he had to keep moving in order to keep from getting his face mauled under Sesshomaru's unyielding attack. He's completely forgot about the wolf until he felt the mongrel on catch him in a headlock and put a hand over his face blocking his view. He felt claws digging into his forehead he grabbed the wolf and flung him away. "GAAHHH!"
Sesshomaru smirked as the spawn held his bleeding forehead. He zoomed forward and grabbed the man by his shirt smirking at the shock on his face.
"You thought yourself untouchable?" Sesshomaru smirked as brought his claws up and dug deep under his rib cage making the man scream in agony. Sesshomaru grinned as he grasped the man's guts, pulling them out and holding them in front of the man's face. Kyomu stared in horror at his insides that lay in the demon's bloody hands "don't ever stand in this Sesshomaru's way"
With that he reached back in and tore the man's heart out and melted it before the man's eye. He looked to Kouga who looked a bit sick at the display.
"I'm going after the spider"
Sesshomaru took off towards Naraku as Kouga blocked anything that tried to stop the man. If Naraku hadn't been behind the slaughter of his whole tribe he may have felt sorry for him…but that was highly unlikely.
Hakudoshi looked up through dust to see a kitsune above him, but instead of his usual blue-green eyes he stared incompletely fire blue eyes of a very pissed off demon.
"Ah hello, as happy as this position makes me" he said kicking Shippo off him and stood dusting himself off "it's unfortunate that I'll be killing you now. Pity though I'd hoped to keep both you and Rin as my pets, both your bodies are pleasing to my sight."
"NEVER speak of my mate in such a way! No male other than I shall know the pleasures of her body!" he snarled
"We shall see" Hakudoshi smirked racing forward
"No I shall see and you never will" he growled as he blocked Hakudoshi's fist and punched him in the jaw making him fly back.
Hakudoshi landed on his feet and skidded to a halt rubbing his jaw. He charged forward again, jumped up, and gave a barrage of flying kicks. Shippo put his hands up and shielded himself from it. Hakudoshi quickly did a round house making Shippo go back a couple feet. He lowered his arms and race toward the white haired male who did the same. Fist flew in a blur as the other tried to incapacitate the other. Shippo did a kick flip connecting with Hakudoshi's jaw. Hakudoshi spotted a sword and grabbed it, charging it with his energy and rushing at Shippo who jumped and dodged then formed his sword. He rushed forward and swung intending to kill as their swords clashed. Shippo could tell that Hakudoshi was not trained with the sword like he was, the result many mistakes leading to a couple deep wounds and several shallow ones.
Hakudoshi was becoming frustrated as he sprang forward dealing a rain of quick slashes. Shippo moved but not fast enough as he felt the sword slash his chest. He hissed and ripped the shirt off to see purple goop in his wound.
'Damn miasma' he thought then began dodging miasma filled energy balls. 'This ends now!'
He rushed forward and began running in circles around Hakudoshi, throwing up a dome so he couldn't escape. Soon a whirlwind was swirling around him as he floated in the center. Hakudoshi tried to pin point the mistune's location but couldn't see beyond the wind wall. Then daggers seemed to come from all directions as they seemed to pierce through him and ricochet off the doom to come back at him. Shippo stood outside the doom watching with pleasure as his energy daggers cleanly sliced through Hakudoshi and bounced off the dome to go through again. Soon he called the energy from the daggers and the dome back to him and watched as Hakudoshi collapsed to the ground coughing up blood.
Hakudoshi could do nothing but watch as Shippo walked up walked up to him and picked him up by a fist full of his hair. Shippo looked Hakudoshi in the eyes as he reached down and grabbed his sack and gave a sharp yank. Hakudoshi howled as he felt the pain of being neutered but his howl was silenced as he felt what was ripped from him being shoved down his throat.
"You give the impression of liking male and female parts" Shippo growled "so why don't I give you girl parts and teach you what some girls do"
Hakudoshi screamed as he felt his manhood being slowly torn from him then shoved down his throat making him choke more. Shippo looked crazed as he watched him chock trying to get air and failing. Soon he felt the boy's body go slack and sliced his neck from his should holding the head watching as his severed parts slid down out his throat and to the ground. He though of having the head stuffed as a souvenir but didn't think Rin would appreciate having it mounted in their room. So he cut some of the hair and torched the body, he'd have the hair woven into a necklace for her. He winced as pain shot through him and looked to see his chest wound hadn't healed and was black and purple around. He jumped out and searched for Kagome.
Kagome had just finished off the last demon surrounding her when Shippo walked up to her. She was on alert as she looked at her son as walked up to him. She noticed the wound on his chest and smelt the miasma festering inside the wound. She reached out and used her powers to purify the miasma causing Shippo to hiss as it burned. She then used healing powers to sooth and patch his wound not even leaving a scar.
"Let us find Sesshomaru" she said as she took off with Shippo following.
The twins had given up running after 2 hours and tore the bark off to trees and used their fire to make the boards hover and zoom through the forest, careful to keep the heat from the pups. They had cut the time in half and made it to the castle gates in a half hour with a sigh of relief.
"Open the gates!" Zuko commanded
"On whose order?" a guard said
"Our mother's and father's, lady Kagome and lord Sesshomaru" Shiro said "we are prince Shiro and Zuko with the royal pups now let us in this instant!"
The gate quickly lowered and they rushed inside and into the castle where they handed the pups over to L and Light who Sesshomaru had asked to stay at the castle to protect it and the pups when they got there.
"Are they damaged?" L asked sitting on one side of the crib in the nursery
"No they are perfectly fine" Shiro said
"Mother made sure of that" Zuko said
"Good" light sighed
"We must get back" Zuko said
"But first we shall visit the armory for some fire friendly weapons" Shiro said
"Aren't you a bit young to be in battle?" L said
"Aren't you a bit old to binge on sweets like a child?" Zuko shot back
"Touché" L glared at Zuko as light sniggered
"Our whole life has been a battle, so why should this be any different?" Shiro said
They quickly went about gathering things the returned to the battle this time going as fast as they could.
When they finally made it to the battle they immediately began incinerating the mindless demon swarm clearing a lot of ground fast. They noticed their new parents rushing toward a swirling purple dome and decided that that must be where the spider was hiding.
Kagome looked to see of the sky cleared and most of the ground clear, on fire, but clear. She looked at the barrier just as Kouga and Inuyasha caught up to run along side her. She looked at the two in a questioning manner.
"We figured the guards could finish the rest of the hoards while we take this bastard"
"Hn, I have to call the jewel to me which should weaken him considerably, but then the plan may get a little harder with the rage that he will display."
"Yea and exactly how are you going to call the jewel to you?"
"My mate it the shikon miko who was born with the jewel embedded in her body, the jewel is bound to her, so if she calls the jewel will answer." Sesshomaru said now explain the rest of your plan"
"It's simple really I'll destroy him from the inside." She said
Naraku watched in anger as all his demons and offspring were slaughtered. He couldn't use all his energy creating more hoards and offspring would take days to create effectively. The incompetent guards were scattered chasing decoys and failed to get the brats back! Everything was ruined so he'd have to flee and plot while he hid for a while.
He was about to sneak out the barrier when he felt a pulse in his chest where the jewel was then pain as it was ripped from his body. He watched as it shot through his barrier beyond his sight. He roared in outrage, where did it go? His power had been ripped away! This cannot be! He cleared the barrier taking the miasma back to him to see the miko chanting as pink and purple rays shot towards her. Then he sensed the whole jewel freshly purified on the miko the he watched as it absorbed into her body.
"You bitch! I shall enjoy that jewel and your heart from your body for everyone to see before I slaughter them all!" he snarled as he flung tentacles at all present. They all slashed and hacked at tentacles but it seemed like more and more came back. He looked to see Kagome coming at him he swung a tentacle making her fly back.
"Kagome!" Inuyasha shouted as he race to catch the falling woman. He looked down smirking at the "unconscious" Kagome. He landed and laid her body under a tree and stepped back into the sun "you ok?"
He felt a tug at his fire rat kimono and looked down to see another shadow next to his give him a thumbs up then take off. He smirked and drew his sword going back to the battle only a couple yards away. Naraku noticed the unconscious body near the tree and growled as he tried to find a way to her. After several attempts to forcefully break through he let out a big wave of miasma cover them as he ran towards her he smirked as he closed the distance until
"DANCE OF THE DRAGON!"
"AAAHHHHH!" he shouted as he was beaten back. 'The only person that could that is dead!' he snarled only to see Kagura standing on a feather with Kanna on another. "YOU DARE BETRAY ME YOU INGRATE! I who gave you life!"
"you gave me nothing but imprisonment and a living death! now die!" she shouted back "DANCE OF BLADES!"
The attack sent him back and also cleared the miasma cloud.
"Kagura!" Sango said seeing her standing over Kagome (A/N: no one heard or saw anything while choking in the miasma cloud) she was about to attack when Sesshomaru stopped her "what are you doing?"
"Sango watch" watching Kagura raise her fan
"how are you two still alive!" Naraku shouted
"I'd thank Kagome for that but she seems preoccupied" she said "dance of the dead"
Several dead bodies and demons rose and covered Naraku who shouted trying to get them off him. Sesshomaru and Inuyasha slashed through Naraku's middle while Miroku, Sango, Kilala, and Rin attacked from the top and everyone else the bottom.
"ATTAMENT BERAGE!" Inuyasha yelled as crystals flew at Naraku as he released a miasma towards Inuyasha, but the crystal still sliced him. "BACKLASH WAVE!"
The attacks hit dead on but then Naraku began to shout as parts of him sizzled and fall away. He screamed in agony as he felt like he was being burned from the inside out.
"get it out! GET IT OUT!" he said clawing at himself trying to find the source. Then he detached his head just as his body burst in a pink light
"Kanna, DO IT NOW!" Kagura shouted. she swooped down as a young male walked to the front a sickle on a chain spinning in his hand as he flung it and the sickle stuck in Naraku's fleeing head, pulling him back as it raged to get away. Sesshomaru watched out the corner of his eye as a shadow raced toward Kagome's body. He walked over and picked her up bringing her to the group. Kagome coughed a little as she took a deep breath as she fully came into her body.
"are you well?" Sesshomaru asked
"yes, just a head ache, now give me the head" she said as Sesshomaru put her to her feet. The male with the sickle grabbed the head by the hair and brought it to Kagome. She grabbed it and chanted as Naraku snarled and howled as he was slowly purified. When she was done chanting there was a black orb in place of the head inside a pink barrier.
"what the hell's that sludge?" Inuyasha asked as everyone was gathered around to see it
"Naraku and Onigumo's soul" Kagome said "Kanna?"
"I am here mi lady" she said softly "I am ready"
Kanna turned her mirror and the soul began to be sucked into the mirror as it tried to fight it, but was soon trapped. The Kagome chanted as a figure in a black hooded battle kimono walked up. The figure removed the hood and smiled and waved to everyone.
"you summoned me Kagome?" she said
"yes this mirror contains the soul of Naraku or Onigumo if you will, dispose of him" she said
"thank you Kagome! This is the soul I've been wanting! The kami's promised a butt load of vacation time and a big raise to the shinigami that brought this bastard in!" she smiled happily as she reached into the mirror and pulled out the black soul placing him in her sack. "you sir get a sack of your own. Also as a token of appreciation I'll tell all of you something that will prolong my final visit to you all. Kagura, don't mate with Tsikyaa or Ryu; Kanna stay away from the cliffs in winter; Sango and Miroku, I cannot stress this enough, watch your back's when you meet princess Lamya; and Sesshomaru your pride and ego will cause you to loose a lot of precious things that you can never get back because of your actions and that loss will be so great you will have nothing to live for."
"meaning?" he said
"some of the arrogant, egotistical, and prideful choices you make will lead to you taking your own life" she said then whispered in his hear "women are fragile beings no matter how unbreakable they seem on the outside"
"hn" he nodded as a sign of thanks
"well I'm off!" she said
"wait what about Kagome, Kouga, and the rest of us" Shippo asked
"Kagome already knows, Kouga is very blurry, and the rest of you haven't lived long enough to make choices leading to a clear end yet" she said then began walking away and fading leaving a 'good bye' on the winds.
"now the wish" Kagome said "but there is no pure or unselfish wish because any wish is selfish"
A pink light shot from her chest and the jewel floated on front of them and began to speak
"you are correct young miko and by your actions you have freed me, I am Midoriko" the jewel said as a young woman materialized with the jewel in her palm. "This battle has finally silenced the battle inside and gave me the tip in power I needed to succeed I can finally lead a normal life"
"I won't be sent back to the future will I?" Kagome asked feeling Sesshomaru tense and tighten his hold on her
"luckily no the a kami's have decided to let you stay, but unfortunately they cannot keep your portal to the future open since it is no longer of use" she said sadly "you'll have to wait to see your family again"
"I see" she said
"don't despair you'll all make it there" she said smiling "take the jewel"
"I thought it was sposed to disappear from existence" Inuyasha said
"no just it's power" Midoriko said "think of it as a reminder of this glorious day. I must bid you a farewell I hope that our path's will cross one day"
"you're welcome in the western lands at anytime" Kagome said
"thank you lady Kagome, farewell all" she said journeying into the forest
"so it's finally over." Inuyasha said
"what now?" Sango asked
"now we go home, everyone to the castle" Kagome said "and Sango I have big surprise for you when we get there."
"I hope its rest because I'm exhausted"
"no but the surprise can wait" she chuckled
"come everyone let us return" Sesshomaru said as he lead them all home for some much needed rest, anything else could wait until tomorrow.
