Chapter 50: The Demon With Sapphire Eyes
At the top of the peak of Mount Fuji, there was complete silence. Inuyasha pierced the ground with tetsaiga and cracked his fingers, cracking his neck, and taking a deep breath in. He picked up his sword and placed it over his shoulder, "Alright Daski, come out and face me, I have other things to do than to sit around waiting for you."
After a while of silence the mountain began the rumble. From the other side of the peak a demon, large as an elephant, came into sight. This demon had broad shoulders, clothing mad out of woven grass, and a staff with a pearl as big as a basketball held up on top. His eyes were covered by his black thick hair, and his smile was evil.
When Daski came to the top of the peak, a few feet away from Inuyasha, he spoke "What have you come for?" His dark voice was hard.
Inuyasha gripped his tetsaiga and replied, "I've come to battle you for your elements."
Daski smiled even wider and put his staff in front of him in fighting stance, telling Inuyasha to go for it.
Inuyasha smirked and put the tetsaiga in from of him and the wind started to swirl around the large sword. "WINDSCAR" Inuyasha shouted and thrust his sword towards the demon and watched it hit him. Daski did nothing to block it; it just hit him and bounced off of him. He laughed, "No weapon can defeat me, my friend."
Inuyasha gritted his teeth, "since when was I your friend?" He pierced the ground again with the tetsaiga and stepped forward. He cut himself with his claws "BLADES OF BLOOD". This time Daski blocked it with his staff. His feet slid on the ground almost knocking him down.
This large demon was weak; Inuyasha didn't even think he had any power, let alone fight. Inuyasha looked at him and smirked again and this time showing his fangs. "IRON REAVER SOUL STEALER". He yelled as he cut up the demons staff as he tried to defend himself.
The demon fell top heavy and threw his arms out, Inuyasha grabbed his sword and put one foot on the demons belled and pointed the sword in front of his face. "I don't have time for this, I have to be somewhere. If you don't do what I say I'll kill you." Inuyasha's mood changed, he was more determined and desperate.
The demon laughed, this surprised Inuyasha. It wasn't an evil laugh this time, it was a joking laugh. "I may be the demon of all elements but I lost my skill in battling when I fought a demon long ago. You're the first person to come around here wanting the power of elements in 109 years," he paused and moved his hand to push the sword away and sat up. "I'm not the fighter I was then. What do you plan on using the elements for?"
Inuyasha put his sword over his shoulder and replied, "I defeat the demon Naraku and to protect my mate."
"Well, if it's to defeat Naraku, then I'd be happy to give it to you. That damn demon has been polluting the air with his miasma it's smothering me. If I hadn't lost my fighting skill, I would have taken him out long ago." He moved his hair out of his face and reviled his eyes. One eye was missing and another eye was a blue sapphire rock. "These are my eyes. The demon that defeated me long ago won my right eye, now you will receive me left." He pulled out the rock and handed it over to Inuyasha. "I'm too old to protect these any longer. Being 6,010 years old is too old for a demon in solitude."
Inuyasha took the gem and gripped in his hand, "Thanks a lot."
"To use the power, you must swallow it. It may not come into effect until 42 hours," he got to his feet and picked his staff up. Unable to see he used the staff to guide him down the mountain, "Farewell."
Inuyasha swallowed the rock and put away the tetsaiga. He stood there for a moment thinking of what to do next. 'Kagome. I'll go to Totosei's and tell him I'm finished, and go back to Kagome. Hold on Kagome, I'm coming."
