Chapter 5
Cowardice, Flee from Hatred
Makoto was completely engulfed by the fire. It glowed harshly around him. Abruptly, however, the flame had vanished. It seemed as though he absorbed it.
"It is futile, servant of Sesshomaru," Makoto said. "My existence is far too vital to this world."
Makoto then unleashed a sudden blast of fire, attempting to exterminate the vengeful Jaken. It was precise, but useless, since Jaken protected himself with his staff's encirclement of fire.
"I still sense your presence," Makoto said. "Is your pathetic, sycophant soul that determined?"
"You will die for what you've done!" Jaken cried.
Hastily, Makoto used his powerful claws to grasp the soft earth and rip it open. More fissures were created like before. Jaken tripped over one of the cracks, and fell into a deep ravine.
"Ah!"
Makoto stood before the ravine, blind eyes focused.
"Have you survived?"
Jaken was saved by a tiny branch. He used it to climb out of the bottomless pit.
"I will only die when I know my Lord and Rin have been avenged!" Jaken said.
Inuyasha kept watching from a distance. It had all happened so quickly and brutally that he remained stasis. But now he knew what had to be done. He had to slay Makoto himself. He had to. For everyone.
Inuyasha's eyes changed rapidly from a distant state to an enraged state. Vengeance was seething from his irises. Crimson anger was flowing through his veins. He rushed blindly at Makoto.
Makoto was unaware of Inuyasha's intention. He was focusing on the vengeful Jaken. Thus, Inuyasha caught him in the back, iron-like nails ripping through Makoto's flesh. Inuyasha's force caused Makoto to be thrown to the ground violently. Blood was shed; anger was released.
Makoto eventually stood up. His clear, impassive eyes became a violent, burning red.
"I shall destroy you, brother!"
Makoto leapt at Inuyasha and attempted to slash him with his piercing claws, but Inuyasha evaded it. Inuyasha then unsheathed the Tetsusaiga. It grew with immense gallantry and palpitated with power.
"Damn you!"
They both leapt blindly, driven only to kill.
Makoto grasped the Tetsusaiga with both claws, and Inuyasha attempted to push him back. They seemed evenly determined and equally powerful.
Jaken was now the observer, for he looked far off, from near the abysmal ravines.
"I shall kill him," Jaken thought.
He then took up his staff and a flame was hurled into the air. It was directly aimed at Makoto's back, and it did indeed, make impact. But it was to no avail, for Makoto once again, absorbed the fire. He was ablaze with anger, thus the fire was extinguished easily.
Jaken was astonished.
"He is very powerful! Perhaps I should allow Lord Sesshomaru's mutt brother handle this after all!"
With sure decision, Jaken fled from the flaring intensity, and disappeared into the forest.
The intensity ensued, Makoto and Inuyasha both filled with anger and pure hatred. Inuyasha then saw something. He began to focus to see it clearer. It was the wind scar.
Their forces collided, creating the wind scar, the key to unleashing the Tetsusaiga's full power. Inuyasha leapt back from Makoto and attempted it. He slashed the overwhelming wind and hit the gust's core. The power was unleashed.
