Early A/N

Okay, the first paragraph is actually Kagome explaining about earlier events. Just for those of you who haven't checked up on the story in awhile.

Also, I really want you all to enjoy this chapter! I mean, c'mon! It's Inuyasha in dog demon form! I dunno about the rest of you, but I love that idea! A lot! So, let's start Chapter 14, shall we?

-Chapter 14-

'Inuyasha is fighting Sesshomaru. He's transformed into a huge monster. He now looks exactly like his brother in his dog demon form. I don't know how to change him back... I still can't move my body... I can't help him. But Kira, my daughter, is safe. Sesshomaru saved her. Inuyasha still doesn't know that Kira is actually his daughter. Kira doesn't know that she even has a father. I know that eventually I'll have to tell them both about each other, but for some reason, I feel like neither of them is ready to know the truth. I think that's what's holding me back. There's also the fact that Inuyasha betrayed me. He cheated on me to be with Kikyo... He only loved my resemblance to Kikyo. He doesn't actually care about me as a person. And, if for any reason Inuyasha can't transform back into his halfdemon form, there's a good chance that both me and Kira will be mercilessly killed. I don't want that to happen, but there's nothing I can do. My only hope is that Sesshomaru can bring down his brother.' Kagome thought.

Kira was watching the whole thing. Everything that had happened, she'd seen. She had inherited half of her mother's personality. The other half came from...who else? Her good ol' daddy.

"Mommy... When this is over, I have a question I really need to ask you. And it isn't where babies come from. You already answered that. The stork brings them, right?" Kira said to her mommy.

Kagome cried as she heard this. Her daughter didn't understand what death was... She might not live to hear her precious daughter's question. And she couldn't answer because she couldn't move. Naraku's spell hadn't released its grasp on her yet.

"Mommy, why won't you answer me?" Kira continued.

Kagome was numb inside. This whole thing was killing her very soul. Kira needed her, and she felt like she wasn't there for her.

Somehow, Kira knew what needed to be done. She brought up her hand and her claws lengthened."I know how I can stop it, Mommy. You just watch! I can do it all by myself! And when I come back, be sure to give me a pat on the head, okay?"

Kagome watched her daughter run into the battle. She was beyond her reach now. And furthermore, she was in the toxic fumes.

Kira wasn't phased my the noxious fumes. Yet. She was fine, but now she'd do something that she knew needed to be done. She leapt up when she got to where Sesshomaru was. Inuyasha tried to kill her by batting her with one of his gargantuan paws, but Kira dodged it in mid-air. Her claws glowed yellow with immense power. She sliced through one of Inuyasha's legs, leaving a gaping hole in it. Inuyasha tripped and fell. He wasn't dead nor defeated. He got back up and tried again to attack. He tried to rip her in half with his fangs. But, with her being so small and agile, he only managed to cut her arm.

Kira retreated somewhat and only for second. She grabbed her arm, wincing in pain as she did so. 'I don't know what's happening to this man, but he's going to hurt my mommy if I can't stop him.' she thought. And she kept that thought in her head as she headed back into battle, blood running from her wound.

Inuyasha turned back to Sesshomaru, who had gotten back up. Both of the two brothers were ready to fight to the death this time. Inuyasha was going to charge, but limped and stumbled.

Sesshomaru took this chance. He ran and bashed Inuyasha in the side, knocking him over.

Inuyasha quickly scrambled to back on his feet. He stood up to full height. Even Sesshomaru himself thought this was intimidating. Inuyasha raised up his tail and the fur on his back stood on end. He was growling and gargling and even barking occasionally. He literally was tempting Sesshomaru to make the first move. More drool dripped from his canine lips, falling on the ground and creating more fumes. Sesshomaru was starting to weaken from intoxication.

The demon blood in Inuyasha wanted to kill. It wanted to murder and slay. And it wanted to continue its slaughter in order to obtain pleasure. Its first victim remained a mystery, however.
