Seven Sins

Kagome took a deep breath as Kanna turned to face her. The last time that she went up against Kanna, she won, but it drained all her power. This time she had to come out, not only victorious, but with power.

"Hello Kagome," Kanna said in her chilling voice. "Remember me?"

Kagome just rolled her eyes as she eyed Kanna up and down. "How could I forget?" Kagome picked up a sword from the ground and held it in front of her.

'Last time I got in the mirror and broke it coming out. Effective but it drained all my powers. And if I'm going to go up against Naraku I'm going to need them. So maybe if I could just get her to drop the mirror...' Kagome thought.

She didn't know what Kanna was capable of doing, but she'd find out soon enough.

Sesshomaru had eyed Kagura before jumping into battle, not waiting for small talk.

Kagura, he noticed, was very good. Not one demon had hit the other. Sesshomaru would use his sword to throw out all kinds of attacks, but Kagura dodged each one.

Kagura would throw out wind attacks, but Sesshomaru used his sword to deflect them.

They were almost equally matched.

Almost.

Kagura still had a secret hidden up her sleeve, but she really didn't want to use it, not yet anyway.

Mushen was winning the fight against Yura. He could see all the hair and purify it before it attacked him. He even got in a few good hits with his green fists.

Yura, on her part, was out of breath, and she looked like hell. Her arm, leg, and rib, hurt like hell from where he punched her, her head was starting to spin, and her hair was starting to lose it's deadly abilities.

-+-+-+-+-+-+

Mauden was having a hard time keeping up with Koga.

Koga was to fast.

He tried a few times to slow him down, but his spiritual powers were dwindling down, and soon he wouldn't have much.

And if that were to happen, he'd be a sitting duck until his powers came back. And that alone could take hours, maybe even days.

-+-+-+-+-+-+

Inuyasha wasn't doing well. At the rate Naraku was going, not only would he be dead, but Kagome too. And then, Naraku'd do something and then rule the world. How fun.

Inuyasha was just dodging attacks at this point.

Naraku was throwing daggers coated in a black substance, that Inuyasha knew for a fact hurt. And occasionally Naraku would throw some magic attack that turned into the shape of a small black ball. The ball had never actually hit him, but it had come close, many times.

Inuyasha just had to hope that Kagome finished Kanna off quickly, so she could get out of here.

There was no way that he was going to let Kagome fight Naraku when he could only just dodge his attacks. Inuyasha stole a look over toward Kagome and Kanna. It looked like they were just standing there but Inuyasha could see that Kanna was doing something behind her back with one of her hand, that wasn't holding up a small silver mirror.

Inuyasha didn't have time to get a good look though, Naraku was to unpredictable, and mad, to be left unwatched for to long. Inuyasha turned back to looking at Naraku just in time to avoid another black ball. Inuyasha's gaze followed the black ball as it zoomed past him.

It flew through the air for a few more moments before disappearing into thin air. He jerked his gaze back to Naraku and dodged some more daggers.

Kanna smiled.

Her spell was complete.

"All right Kagome, let us begin." She said, causing shivers to run up and down Kagome's arms.

Kagome held the sword tighter in her hands and waited for Kanna to make the first move. Mistake! Kanna brought her right hand from behind her back and floating about 2 inches from her hand was a black ball. The ball was rather big, but it was still small enough for Kanna to keep up in the air.

Kagome loosened her hold on the sword as she stared at the ball.

The next thing she knew Kanna threw the ball up in the air above Kagome's head and everything went dark.

-+-+-+-+-+-+

Kagura dodged yet another one of Sesshomaru's attack and threw another one of hers.

She was getting tired of this game.

She looked over at Kanna, catching her gaze, and Kanna gave one nod of her head before turning her attention back to Kagome.

Kagura turned around to face Sesshomaru, not even trying to hide her smirk.

The battle was over. And they had won.

Kagura held the fan that was in her right hand up to her face.

She closed her eyes, focusing her power into her fan, before snapping her eyes open. She moved her hand gracefully around in the air and with one sudden movement snapped her fan shut and pointed it towards Sesshomaru.

Suddenly a violent wind erupted from the fan and shot towards Sesshomaru.

Sesshomaru held his sword up, to block the wind, like he had so many times before, but the wind went around the sword and shot straight into his back.

The force knocked him to his feet, and he couldn't get up.

Kagura smiled and moved her fan up, causing Sesshomaru to move up to.

Her smirk never left her face as she dragged her fan all through the air, dragging Sesshomaru too. "If you're wondering, that was my special attack, Wind Puppet. You can't break free from my hold on you. The wind is now inside you, and it's not going anywhere until I remove it."

Sesshomaru glared at Kagura but hid his emotions well. Anger, there was a lot of anger, but there was also a tiny hint of fear.

-+-+-+-+-+-+

Naraku looked over towards Kagura and caught her gaze.

She wiggled her eyebrows and gave a nod, and turned back around to look at her opponent.

Naraku looked back towards Inuyasha and sighed. "Well as fun as this has been it's time to end this game."

And before Inuyasha could even reply Naraku shot enchanted ropes toward Inuyasha.

Inuyasha dodged the ropes that were heading for his hands and feet but one of the ropes grabbed him by the foot and jerked him to the ground. The others ropes grabbed his hands and leg, before he could get back up.

Inuyasha growled as he struggled to his feet. He used his claws to cut the ropes, but the moment his claws touched them they turned into nothing but smoke.

Inuyasha took this advantage to escape, but the ropes held him as tight as ever, even though they were still smoke.

He watched as they turned back into a solid then looked up at Naraku and growled.

He couldn't escape.

But that didn't mean he wasn't gonna try.

-+-+-+-+-+-+

Koga looked over at Naraku and caught his gaze almost instantly.

Naraku gave him a curt nod and turned back to Inuyasha, who was still trying to rip apart the magic ropes.

Koga turned back to Mauden and started to run in a circle around him. He kept running, occasionally ducking out of the line of fire of a sutra or a spell, and ran faster.

Eventually a small tornado took Koga's place and kept going in a circle around Mauden. The tornado didn't get any closer or suck anything up. It just kept Mauden imprisoned.

Mauden, figuring this out quickly, threw a few sutras and spells, waiting for a hole in the tornado. Not getting one he walked over to the wall of wind and touched it, regretting it almost instantly.

The touch threw him back into the opposite side of the tornado, making him crash into that wall. Then that wall threw him and he landed face first into the ground.

Mauden struggled to feet and started looking around, looking for some kind of escape.

He didn't find one. He was trapped.

-+-+-+-+-+-+

Yura looked over at Koga and caught his conceited little smile and a few over excited nods. Yura stole a glance at the others.

Kagome was looking around, blindly, afraid.

Sesshomaru was flying from tree trunk to tree trunk.

Inuyasha was clawing at the magical ropes.

Mauden was looking around the tornado frantically.

And Inutashio had taken the others back to the house, like Kagome had told him to.

Yura looked back over at Mushen and smiled.

She moved her fingers around hastily and gathered the hair into a big fur ball. She levitated it over his head and sent it crashing down on him.

The hair ate him up quickly and soon his head popped out of the top of the ball. His hands were beside his head and a slightly dazed look in his eyes. He tried to cut the ball with his spiritual powers but he couldn't move.

"Pay back's a bitch." Yura said with a smile on her face.

I'll end it there. Surprised? The bad guys are winning. Thanks to the reviews that I got, if I got any. I can't remember anymore. I'm sorry. It's just been a bad week. Long story short the boy I'm practically in love with (who is also one of my best friends) likes another girl. That's okay though, because if he did like me back things would get all weird between us. So yeah, whatever. Review, okay? Till Next Time…
