Sincerely,

Sessho- Maru entered Kagome's bedroom, and just tossed the sword on her desk. "Wha? Sessho, what are you doing?", Kagome asked.
"We have to go save Inu- Yasha from an old enemy of mine, only one problem, the Fang Sword (I know, it's original name, I just prefer my English terms.) I can not wield it.", Sessho- Maru explained.
"Why not?", Kagome asked.
"Our enemy is one that I have escaped from before, I can only stay out of his control if I can fly, the sword's to heavy for that, you have to use it.", Sessho answered, "I don't think he can effect you because you're from this time, and I've noticed your people are so detached from the earth that it'd be difficult for him to control you.",
"Oh.", Kagome stated.
So, Kagome, and Sessho- Maru both left through the well. "Why did you bring that silly thing?", Sessho asked.
"That way I can travel easier.", Kagome stated.
"You don't have to worry about that, I can change and you can ride me.", Sessho snorted.
Upon which he went into his true form, and knelt for Kagome to get on, which she did, with the sword across her back. And they went off to the castle. Meanwhile, the small bud began it's blooming. "Perfect, I'll have a new person under my control by the next full moon.", Lord Inako chuckled to himself, "Go welcome our guests, Blossom.",
"Yes Lord Inako.", came a reply.
...
"What's that?", Kagome said, pointing to a figure in the distance.
'Blossom.', Sessho- Maru growled, 'You just get to the castle, I can deal with that witch.',
He landed only a few feet from her, and let Kagome get off. "Good luck, Sessho.", Kagome said, before running off into the forest.
"Lord Sessho- Maru, so the traitor's returned home...", Lady Blossom cackled.
'This is where you die, bitch!', Sessho snarled at her.
"Ooooohhhh, I've made the little puppy wuppy mad, what shall I ever do?", Lady Blossom retorted.
...
Kagome had made it to the front of the castle, and then, ran into the guards. 'Maybe a distraction will work.', she thought, before throwing a rock.
It worked, and using the heavy sword she knocked them out before they even knew what hit them. Kagome slipped into the castle, she turned a corner, and came into what looked like a large greenhouse, full of new buds. "I see you've found my army.", came a calm voice.
Kagome looked up to see a man with long hair in a ponytail, it was a deep brown, and his eyes a rather interesting green. "I hope you can defend yourself, little mortal.", he smirked, "Especially when my prize warrior joins us, and you have a day and a half before that happens, so, I'll just have to try not to kill you for him.",
Kagome drew the sword, and held it in a readied position, as she had seen Inu do before in his fights before. "I'm ready for you jerk.", Kagome taunted.
"Good, I'll be glad to throw you on your butt, human.", Lord Inako sneered.
"Bring it.", Kagome tested.
"Let us see if you can handle my thorn sword.", he drew his, "Little girl.",
The swords made first contact with a bone jarring clang, and Kagome struggled against it, but managed to hold her position. As Kagome and Inako parted, Kagome wondered if this was really how they'd win the battle. They clashed again, and Kagome felt his weight pressing against hers. "Your hardly tiring me, and yet, I'm running you like a dog, oops, is that offensive?", he said his snide remark.
Kagome then noticed an arrow head in her pocket, she quickly took it out, but kept it hidden in her wrist. 'Please let this work.', came her thoughts. She charged, only to dodge, making sure she scraped her hand with the arrow in it's grip, driving it deep into his hand. "You cheap bitch!", came the cry.
Then, as though in slow motion a sword came flying her way.... Kagome twisted, hoping, praying she would dodge it....
....
Sessho- Maru dogged an attack from Lady Blossom, before sending one of his own on her. "Ah, Sessho- Maru, you'll never learn will you? You'll never beat me, or Lord Inako to free your little brother.",
'That's what you think, you green haired ass.", Sessho insulted.
"We'll just see about that.", Blossom retorted.
....
Kagome dodged it, just barely, and still got a nice scratch into the deal, however, she did manage to grab onto the blade itself of his sword, and, using the Fang sword, broke it. "You little wench, how dare you break my sword1!!!!!!! You'll pay.", Lord Inako growled.
With that, he began to change, his hands, and legs became masses of vines, and his hair became one, long cascade of leaves. "Here you go!", he bellowed, his arms grew outward, threatening to snare Kagome into their tight embrace.
That's when one hit her in the cheek, she spun into the floor, disoriented. "Ahhh, I see we are loosing hope... Well, all the same, why not let your hopes up by seeing you're little friend right now?", with that, he pointed to a barely opening blossom, it was just a large enough hole to see inside of the blossom itself. Inside Inu lay, only he had vines starting to grow from his hands, and feet, a noticeable bundle of flowers starting to emerge from his hair. Kagome gasped. "That's right, he'll be fully mine by the full moon, I hope his transformation will not disturb you little girl....", he sneered.
"I'll kill yoooooooouuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!!!!!!!!!!", Kagome screamed, striking hard across one of his arms, cutting off a good portion of his vines.
Twice as many grew back in their places, as he pinned her against a wall. Pain ebbed through her chest, but she got up anyway, running again, to cut him, only to have more grow back. "How do you beat something that grows like wildfire?", Kagome whispered.
...
Sessho- Maru came close to getting his gut slitted, only to be missed at the last second, then, came the most unexpected thing, a hail of fire bellowed, burning her to cinders midst the sweltering heat, Sessho was protected. "I see you've not lost your stubborness, Brother Sessho.", a familiar voice came.
"Kaongy?", Sessho asked.
"Aye, one and the same.", a young face smiled up at him.
Sessho- Maru remembered him, another dog demon at one point, turned into one of Inako's slaves by the same method he was using on Inu- Yasha. His green, willow like hair fell over one shoulder, and tearful silver eyes regarded Sessho with a feel of relief, his slim figure showed no sign of well to do nutrition. Sessho- Maru looked at the torch he held in one hand. "You could have killed yourself doing that, you know, Kaongy.", Sessho warned.
"Just as long as it took the bitch with me.", came a raspy reply, "The drought would've done the same to me anyway."
Sessho- Maru regarded the plant- like being who had never managed to change back, the drought must be horrible on him, a lack of water could spell death, especially for willows. "You should be finding a pond.", Sessho suggested at last.
"I've tried, but the only ones are too close to human villages.", Kaongy stated.
Sessho glanced at Kaongy's root- like feet, when a plant- creature decided to pass they would become a full plant, and those would dig deep into the earth when the time came. But it was years in the coming for this long past friend. "You're friend will need help too, Sessho, come on.", Kaongy gestured to the castle in earnest, "And I know where they are keeping your brother too.",
...
He had her, wrapped in an impossible to break grip, it was cutting Kagome's breath into short, ragged rasps. "To kill, or not to kill.", He taunted.
The only thing that Kagome could watch was Inu, since Inako meant to taunt her with seeing the child's transformations. "See how well my little prize grows in this soil, made by grinding human remains into dirt?", he ranted.
Inu's hair was filled almost completely with buds, and his arms were hidden among vines, his feet as well, and his very figure started to shift to change.... "A lot faster than I hoped....", Lord Inako crooned.
Kagome felt hopeless bitterness fill herself.
