I Do Not Own Inuyasha
.
The Hopes, Tears, and Blood
.
Inuyasha looked to his pupped miko and scowled as they continued walking through the forest together. He didn't like this, he didn't like it one bit. But he knew that this was important. However, he didn't have somewhere safe to put the miko, if he did then he would put her somewhere safe.
There was also the slightly small matter of him not being able to kill his brother without help. Hell, it had taken Naraku's help just to get the asshole banished in the first place! Now they were dealing with this! He wasn't happy about it as he stalked through the forest and tried not to snarl in frustrations. He just hoped that Kagome wasn't harmed in this battle and that she was smart enough to keep an archers distance from the battle to help him kill his brother.
Then again he could just order her to do that through the Claim.
He looked over to the woman with a belly swelling with his pups and dismissed the thought as he continued stalking through the forest. He couldn't ask her to endanger their pups, he could however ask her to kill his brother one he had weakened him down a great deal. He liked that plan.
If Sesshomaru wasn't willing to come willing with him then he would solve this problem by killing him. that was a good plan. Also, that was his orders. Sesshomaru was not going to get to rebel against their father, which was something his father feared to have happen. Grumbling he turned around and offered a hand to his pupped claimed, and she took it as he hoisted her up
This wasn't going to be good no matter what the outcome was.
Where the hell was that bastard Naraku when one needed him anyway!? Ever since their first encounter with the girl his partner in this mission had cut strings and disappeared. Inuyasha could use some of Naraku's help at this point to kill his brother. It was important to him that they finish this and it had been important to Naraku as well. But it appeared not to be important enough.
Snarling a bit he looked at where his pups resided in the miko and wondered if he should just send her home and come for her when this was over. No doubt if he died her craving for him would evaporate as the claim was broken. Sighing again he looked forward and decided that he wasn't going to ask that of her.
Continueing their trek through the forest he was scenting the air for an idea of where they were. But this was a foreign land and none of the scents were truly familiar to him and he looked at the map the human miko had provided him before grabbing her wrist and tugging her where he wanted to go. This was all important but he wasn't going to dwaddle around and fuck it up a second time. Besides, he wanted a rematch with Sesshomaru.
Kagome was scared, she was terrified, not just for herself, but for the baby in her. According to the note Inuyasha had received this was going to be an all out war, and she didn't want to be involved. No, no she did not!
She might not have wanted the child he had put in her to be planted in her but now that it was growing in her she was going to do her damnedest to take good care of her baby, and she was not going into battle. He couldn't make her! she refused and she wasn't going to have any part of this!
"Inuyasha, release me!" she snapped. He stopped and turned on her then, his ears twitching.
"What did you say?" he snarled menacingly.
"I said release me, I'm not going into that battle even if you order me to," she whispered desperately as her hand rested on the slight swell of her stomach where she could feel the life growing in her.
"And why should I release you, you do know that Claims are for life, you'll die without my essences and presence," he said coldly.
"I don't care, you put this baby in me, now do the right thing and release us! Let us go!" she hissed and she tried to pull away from him again.
"No, I need you to kill my brother," he growled out menacingly. She trembled a bit in fear and then he grabbed her throat as he pulled her close. She felt a will invading her body again even as she fought against it.
"You will just shut up, come with me and do as ordered until I kill my brother," he growled to her and she whimpered.
"Understand?" he snapped.
She nodded her head desperately as she felt the tears staining her cheeks as he dropped her back on the ground. She coughed for air as she tried to fill her lungs. She hugged her swelling belly and cried as her body moved against her will to keep moving. She sobbed as hard as she could and tried not to panic about what was going to become of her.
She desperately wanted someone to come and save her from Inuyasha.
She would do whatever they wanted, and be their slave for life, she just wanted someone to save her. She didn't want to die when she had a baby in her, she didn't want to die when she had a life. And him dragging her into this battle would be a sure way to die.
Weeping as she walked she cursed Ungai and Kikyo for having asked this of her and she wept for no one caring about the consequences of what was going to happen to her because she had followed orders. She didn't want anyone to ever know.
Never.
And when this was over, she was running away.
Kami did she ever hope his brother killed him in this battle!
That's all for now folks!
Enjoy Cast Adrift! =)
