Y/N's red eyes glared sharply into another pair as she began to slowly walk to the side. Their eyes never broke apart and Kurimi frowned with her needle-like finger lifting, doing the same as her; they both were walking now, creating a circle in their paths. "The Great Hateshiganai will fulfill his destiny... You're a threat to him and I was ordered to eliminate you," Kurmi said in a lowered voice. The others felt like they were under suspense, they could go all out at any moment and that put them over the edge a bit.
When were they supposed to take cover? How far away are they supposed to be for them to fight? Those questions wafted through their minds as they kept their eyes peeled on their friend.
"Where's Asashi...?" Y/N, completely ignoring Kurimi's threat, preferred to worry about another matter than the one in front of her. Not caring about fighting all too much considering her friends weren't harmed yet. Kurimi blinked with wide eyes, surprised that Y/N had just ignored her.
"He's...well, I don't know. He followed us but now he's gone," Sango spoke up and glanced over at Miroku for some answers.
"Last time I checked, while we ran for it after Obsidian decided to take down that thing, he whispered to me that he'll be back. I don't know where he went but he said he'd be back and that he had to do something. This was before we encountered that fox, too," Miroku answered and had a contemplative stare on his face.
"Whatever the reason, don't worry too much about him. He'll be back, I'm sure of it," Shippo reassured Y/N with a serious stare and tightened his fingers on some solar talismans that he pulled out of his robes.
"Thanks..." Y/N began and lifted her pistols, still having that small cube between her clamped teeth. "If there's nothing that I can do to make you change your mind and if you insist on trying to hurt my friends even though you haven't yet, then I'll have to use my fly-swatter on you; figure of speech..." she added and scowled. One of her pistols pointed up at Kurimi and its glowing features lit up a small portion of the surrounding darkness. I'll have to wait until the sun's up for me to use the solar flares... Damn, you'd think I'd still be able to even when the sun's on the other side of the planet! I guess it just needs to be closer for me to grab one of the flares...tch. she mentally said and focused on the woman before her. They both stopped dead in their tracks and eyed each other like in some old western film.
"My, you certainly seem to have more resolve in your eyes than before," Kurimi smirked and got into an elegant stance. "Nothing will change my mind... I'd rather die by your hands than get killed by the Great Hateshiganai..." she added with a bit of mourn. She saw that walking armageddon with her own eyes, the vibe she got from it, everything, and yet she still assumes it's a guy considering it's gender preference.
"Have it your way..." Y/N answered, knelt down, put one pistol on the ground, and dug into her pocket. Out came her music device, clamping it onto the lip of her bottoms after choosing a song, and securing it so it wouldn't fall. "I don't want to kill you, but if it means keeping my friends safe then fine," she added, closed her red eyes and popped her neck from side to side. (play: Corner by Blue stahli! :D)
(Beginning calm part) As the song played, they began to circle like before. Eyes glued to each other, her pistol back in her one hand, and watching as Kurimi smirked faintly. (Where it picks up a bit) They both vanished and reappeared with Y/N swinging her leg out from the side diagonally and Kurimi blocking it with her forearm.
With a quick thrust of her stinger, Kurimi aimed for the half-breed's shoulder but Y/N jumped up slightly and kicked her foot out; punting square in Kurimi's jaw, causing the woman's head to jerk up strongly. Y/N jumped up higher using a bit more speed so she could flip and drop her heel down onto the woman's head.
As soon as Kurimi lost her balance and winced terribly from the hit, Y/N drop-kicked her, making her fall on to her side. Kurimi did the same thing after she fell, she spun and kicked at Y/N's feet. Y/N just hopped up into the air and aimed her pistols at the woman, soon shooting out those laser beams. Countless mosquitoes appeared all around Kurimi and carried her off into the air, but once a few beams hit her, she turned into a bundle of fried mosquitoes.
Reappearing behind Y/N, the half-breed sensed her in coming and spun around to face her with a roundhouse kick. That made Kurimi's head to jerk to one side, wide eyes from not expecting such awareness from her. Before she could even thrust or swipe at the young lady; Y/N crouched, kicked her leg upward and sent her flying into the star-filled sky.
It was such a strong kick that she nearly broke the sound barrier, causing air to burst and rings to expand. Kurimi soared intensely into the air but much to her luck, her cloud of mosquitoes caught her. Y/N seemed to be letting out a bit more strength with each hit, most likely testing to see how far she'd have to go to defeat her. Kurimi didn't have the upper hand though, Y/N appeared before her after getting caught by them and got a harsh foot to her face.
As she flew once more, Y/N aimed her pistols at Kurimi as she fell back down. Numerous laser shots zipped through the sky after the mosquito woman and nearly prodded her with holes if she hadn't of spun in place to avoid them then get carried away by her little pets.
Kurimi ordered thousands of mosquitoes to race after Y/N from the distance, pointing her stinger at her with a sharp glare. She watched as those mosquitoes flew after a descending Y/N, only to gasp and try to flee when Y/N appeared before her with blinding speed. A strong twirling kick to her ribs sent her flying sideways and then another after reappearing again. She did a series of powerful strikes with her kicks, smacks of her guns, headbutts-after appearing face to face with her, and filling her full of holes in a couple of spots.
Kurimi, with her only good arm, while other parts sizzled with holes of pain, she gritted her teeth in view and tried to run from Y/N. She gasped in terror to see Y/N running along her side, with her arms behind her like some rogue and easily keeping up with her speed.
Just when she was about to jump back up into the air with wounded legs, Y/N filled her full of holes once more and shot her head... Skidding sideways to a halt with a stiff posture, the half-breed alien watched as Kurimi literally fell flat on the ground with blood seeping out of the scorched wounds. (End of song \o/) Despite the fight, the lyrics of the song didn't even suit the fight but the at least it kept her focused.
Y/N wasn't even breathing hard, her red eyes finally turned back to their normal eye color and they dazed over with emotion. Shishi's aunt, I had to kill her... I'm sorry, Shishi, she mentally, mournfully said and closed her eyes. A long silence ensued, she took that time to try and relax her mind a bit before checking to see if everyone else was okay.
"Y/N?" That voice snapped her eyes open to look behind her. It was Sesshomaru, standing and staring at her with wide eyes. He was shocked to see her move so effortlessly and swiftly. Where she got that power and how was beyond him. "I expect an explanation for this...new found power..." he demanded and narrowed his eyes.
As he walked forward, she widened her eyes with surprise at knowing that he saw all of that. Sure, exposing that power all of a sudden in front of her other friends was...okay, but, in front of Sesshomaru? She just hoped he didn't suspect her for lying or anything.
"Yeah, I'll explain later, AFTER this war or... Whatever this whole shindig is considered. Especially Asashi, maybe..." Y/N answered, trailed off in thought at the end and averted her eyes to look down at the ground from the side. A blush tainted her cheeks at how embarrassed she felt, knowing that he was watching the entire time. "I thought you were taking care of that fox guy," Pointing that out, her pink tints faded away and her eyes returned to meet golden ones.
"He's dead..." Sesshomaru bluntly stated and walked closer. He watched how nervous she was by how much closer he was getting. Once he was face to face with her, he picked her up, heard her gasp and lip-locked her deeply. His arms wrapped around her frame easily, making her give into the kiss.
Y/N could feel just how worried yet relieved he was. She knew he had many questions regarding the newly gained power but none-the-less, she wanted to enjoy the peaceful situation between his lips and hers. Her eyes closed and her face flushed bright red until a voice occurred.
"We will be too if we don't hurry..." Asashi's voice made them both part and look over to the side. He stood up on top of a building near the rest of the group, whose eyes were feasting upon the Ketix with surprise.
"What do you mean, Asashi?" Koga questioned and lifted a brow, still recovering from the shock of Y/N's new power just like everyone else.
Asashi didn't seem all that fazed really, he didn't question her as Sesshi did. "Everyone, the threat is creating an army within the city. I left the group a while ago to check up on the Great Hateshiganai to see what he was really doing and turns out, he's spilling that black liquid all over Mamono City! I saw him flying away outside of the city after he got done, so there's no doubt that those things will appear again! Y/N, with your new power, I'll leave it to you to hunt down that threat and take care of it. I can only assume you attained that power through the Time Corpse... Holding time in place long enough for you to train and get stronger is the only possible method for your strength. My guesstimate is that she even taught you how to control solar flares, so we need not worry anymore about keeping her from fighting! I will take down as many as I can while you all proceed ahead after they appear. Y/N, you'll most likely find him up in the sky watching or hiding within the crowd of blackened creatures outside of the city. The sun will be rising soon so it'll be the perfect time to use your solar flares once it peeks just above the horizon..." he explained with a strong and serious voice.
"But, what about Obsidian? Kagome, Inuyasha, Rin?! The others?! Will they really be alright? I visited Obsidian after the Time corpse told me where he was taken to. I don't know if he'll be fighting anytime soon or not, I couldn't tell if he was healed," Y/N exclaimed at first but slowly calmed down and stepped towards Asashi a little.
"I don't know... If he's with Kurochi then he'll be fine. The others will have to remain hiding inside of the waterways as mentioned before. It's Obsidian's choice to assist in our fight, considering the sacrifice he made to let us get away from that giant blackened creature," Asashi answered and saw Sesshomaru grip onto Y/N's shoulder protectively. Just at the mention of Obsidian's name made him nearly get jealous.
Seeing a romance between him and her tickled him, he thought it was hilarious at how the big, bad, stoic, Sesshomaru would act in such a way. He was about to open his mouth again to say something else, but he saw countless dark silhouettes appear from the shadows. "They're coming! I'll hold them off, you all go on ahead and help Y/N get to the Great Hateshiganai!" Asashi pulled out his dagger and glared at the rest of the gang.
"Right..." Sesshomaru replied and scooped up Y/N, causing her to squeak from the unexpected action. Shippo, Miroku, and the others all nodded, while the little fox demon thanked Asashi for the information and such. Soon they took off running, leaving behind the Ketix to his awesomeness and independence.~
