Chapter 20: Farewell Kikyo, My Beloved
"Sesshomaru-sama, what's that?" Rin asked, as the waves of demons flooded out of Mount Hakurei.
"As I expected…" the Daiyokai mused.
"Sesshomaru-sama!" Jaken warned, the dog demon unsheathing Tokijin and vanquished the attacking demons. He then stepped forward and took out the rest with the 'Staff of Two Heads'.
"Jaken-sama, look at the sky!" Rin shouted, both Sesshomaru and Jaken were hacking their way through the demon horde.
"Sesshomaru-sama…" Jaken turned to his master. "They're making their escape. Aren't you going after them?" he wondered when Sesshomaru sheathed his blade.
"I have no interest in the insignificant." Sesshomaru replied. "Rin, get away from the mountain with A-Un."
"But what about you, Sesshomaru-sama?" Rin blinked.
"It goes without saying." Sesshomaru replied. "Naraku is in there."
"Pardon me," Jaken stepped forward. "Naraku has kept himself hidden until now in order to recoup his strength. He is most probably much stronger than he was before."
"So?" Sesshomaru questioned.
"I guess I'm getting a little weak with age…" Jaken went on his knees.
"Woman, we're leaving." Sesshomaru ignored Jaken and left with Chie.
"This demonic aura…" Sesshomaru stopped in his tracks. "There's no mistake." Naraku, so you've appeared.
"You took extraordinary steps to kill a mere woman, Naraku." Sesshomaru remarked, Naraku having impaled Kikyo with his claws and sending her into the raging Shoki torrent.
"Sesshomaru, huh?" Naraku smirked.
"Stay back, woman, Jaken." Sesshomaru instructed.
"I didn't expect you to be following me, too." Naraku admitted. "Are you so interested in me?"
"Since you've emerged from your barrier, I assume you're capable of producing a decent amount of power." Sesshomaru reasoned.
"Would you like to try me?" Naraku challenged.
Drawing Tokijin, Sesshomaru let loose a wave of blue energy and reducing Naraku into a jumbled mass of flesh.
"Sesshomaru, now I'll just reverse the power of your sword to you." Naraku laughed, reforming himself within his barrier and returned the blast back at Sesshomaru. "It's useless." He taunted, Sesshomaru attacked after Chie's shield nullified the blast. "I will not die." Regenerating himself in a black whirlwind, he retreated.
Such impudence. Sesshomaru frowned. You wanted to test the power of your new body against me?
"Sesshomaru!" Inuyasha arrived at the battle-site.
"So, you're still alive, Inuyasha?" Sesshomaru inquired.
"What're you…" Inuyasha growled.
"It seems that Naraku was far more interested in killing that woman than getting rid of you." Sesshomaru supplied.
"Kikyo's bow!" Inuyasha spotted the broken bow.
"This miasma is terrible." Jaken covered his mouth as Inuyasha grieved. "There's no way she could survive it. Sesshomaru-sama!" he called with Sesshomaru and Chie went off.
"Hold on, Sesshomaru!" Inuyasha barked. "Did you just stand by and watch Kikyo get killed?"
"I don't care to know what your connection to that woman was." Sesshomaru continued his way. "But the one who killed Kikyo was Naraku. And the one who wasn't able to save her, was you, Inuyasha. Rather than taking out your anger on me, I suggest you go after Naraku."
SailorStar9: Now that's done, read and review.
