Okay, I know it's been a really long time since I've updated this story or
'Premonition' but after a while of having to read 'East of Eden' have
mercy. That book is very boring. It's a damn disgrace that that book is
considered a 'Classic'. It should be considered junk. (sulks into room to
burn the book)
The Duel
Inuyasha looked Kagome closely and narrowed his eyes. She was sweating and nervous; a rare trait in her. 'Something isn't right here.' He thought, but just then, they came to a big castle; Sesshoumaru's castle. "OH geez, not him again." Inuyasha muttered.
"Silence." Miroku muttered swiftly. "I have just thought of something. Isn't it rather strange that Sesshoumaru just happened to find Kagome and Sango in the woods? Then he put a spell on them causing them to sleep for about a week, nothing major, and they disappear the day that Sango woke up. Now, Kikyo and Sango are working together and we're back here. I know Sango and Kagome would've stuck together if they were in trouble. And let's not forget that Kagome could be Kikyou reincarnated." Miroku concluded his guess.
Inuyasha nodded. "I see what you're saying. I think you're right, but then why are they scheming against us?" He asked. Miroku just shrugged.
Sango and Kagome had heard the entire conversation, although they had tried to talk low. At least now they knew that Kagome was really Kagome and not Kikyo.
Sesshoumaru appeared from the doorway of his castle. "Well done, Sango, Kagome. I will allow you to keep your lives."
"Now what do you want?" Inuyasha yelled at his brother. Sesshoumaru turned on him, his eyes glistening evilly, but he smirked. "Brother, you know well what I want. The list hasn't changed."
Inuyasha growled at this and put his hand on the sheath of the Tetsaiga. "You can't have the Tetsaiga, or the jewel shards." He yelled.
Sesshoumaru laughed to himself. "You forgot one more thing, Brother." "Oh yeah? What's that?" Inuyasha challenged. "Your life." Sesshoumaru called defiantly. They all stared at him in shock, but Inuyasha wasn't surprised. "What else is new?" he rolled his eyes. He knew Sesshoumaru would do anything to see him dead.
"Well, since you are so confident in yourself, why not see who's the better man?" (a/n: you do realize this struck a nerve, you know Inu-chan being a hanyou) Sesshoumaru snapped, and about three more demons appeared by his side. "Too afraid to fight your own fights?" Inuyasha muttered. "Not in the least." Sesshoumaru muttered back. The three demons lunged at Miroku, but a few quick swing of his staff, and they were dead. "Is that the best you can do?" Inuyasha laughed. Sesshoumaru just lunged at his brother, scratching the right side of his face. Inuyasha winced slightly, but did not let his guard down for one second. "What's this? A cat fight?" he smirked, before thrusting Tetsaiga at Sesshoumaru. He dodged it just in time, the sword piercing a tree instead of him.
"You've become very skilled, little brother." Sesshoumaru said mockingly. Inuyasha just glared back his brother and growled. "Sesshoumaru, are you just going to talk or fight?" Inuyasha said pointing the Tetsaiga at his eye. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Kagome watched as Sesshoumaru teased his brother, and she sighed inwardly. 'I wish I could help Inuyasha, but it's nearly impossible with Sesshoumaru's stupid poison.' She thought bitterly. She knew that if she or Sango even tried to move, Sesshoumaru's poison could kill them. 'I wonder if there's a way to somehow get free of this trap.' Kagome thought wistfully. Sango could practically read Kagome's thoughts and looked at her with annoyed eyes. She too was sick of standing there doing nothing. Kagome's eyes widened in alarm as Sesshoumaru threw Inuyasha into some bushes (a/n: HELP!!!!!). Miroku edged over to them and whispered. "I believe that if Inuyasha is able to weaken Sesshoumaru, then maybe the poison won't have such an effect." He knew what they were thinking. Sango agreed, as did Kagome, but was frustrated when she couldn't talk. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Inuyasha cast a look over to the other three just as his back hit the ground They're planning something. Suddenly, a shadow crossed over him, and Sesshoumaru chuckled a bit. Inuyasha directed his attention back to the fight. "Inuyasha, the great hanyou. I believe your reputation will proceed you in death!" Sesshoumaru swung his claws down, but was suddenly struck in his head with a blunt object. It didn't hurt him, just made him angry. "What was that?" He whirled around just as the monk swung his staff above his head and glared at Sesshoumaru. "I don't believe I told you you could interrupt me just when it was getting fun." Sesshoumaru said agitated. "For this, you will pay." Sesshoumaru leapt at the monk, but he held the staff in front of him and struck Sesshoumaru firmly in the chest. Meanwhile, Inuyasha stood up and picked up Tetssaiga and breathed heavily before charging at his brother's back. Sesshoumaru could feel his half-brother approaching him fast, but turned around a second too late. Inuyasha knocked Sesshoumaru completely off his feet. (a/n: I'm making Fluffy really weak, aren't I? Well, I'm a lazy person.) Inuyasha punched Sesshoumaru squarely in the jaw, while Sesshoumaru dug his claws into Inuyasha's side. Sesshoumaru gave a small smile when he saw Inuyasha wince in pain, and took this chance to shove the hanyou off of him. Suddenly, he had the upper hand. Sesshoumaru leaned over his brother and stared at him with a mocking smile on his lips. "I really thought you would be better contest than this, Inuyasha." He cast a spiteful glance at Kagome turned back to his brother. "Especially since I brought that human you love so much into this." Inuyasha gazed at Kagome. He knew tat she couldn't hear their little 'conversation' and sighed with relief, but then remembered that he was about to be killed. Can't let that happen! Especially not by the hand of this jerk Sesshoumaru. He thought. Inuyasha rolled over and sprang up, completely ignoring the burning ache in his side. "Oh, struck a nerve, did I?" Sesshoumaru said cockily. Inuyasha was, by now, very mad and annoyed by Sesshoumaru's boastfulness. He charged straight towards Sesshoumaru and screamed "Claws of Death!!!!!" Sesshoumaru was knocked off his feet for a quick second, but got to his feet as quickly as he had fallen. Inuyasha could see the rage in his brother's face. Think, think, think!!! He racked his brain, then he got it. Once, while he was waiting for Kagome to go back through the well with him, he sat with her brother Souta and was watching something he called a 'television' and 'wrestling'. ~*Flashback*~ "Inuyasha, go watch T.V. with Souta. I'll be ready in a minute." Kagome said practically pushing him down the stairs. Inuyasha only muttered a few curses, but realized that if Kagome or Mrs. Higurashi would hear, he would be in DEEP trouble. He scanned the house for Souta until he saw him watching a box with moving figures. Inuyasha shrugged and sat down as well. "What is this stupidity?" he sneered as he watched the humans wearing funny looking costumes and hitting each other relentlessly. He actually quite enjoyed it; the part they were beat up at least. "It's called wrestling!" Souta said excitedly. "I think it's the greatest sport in the world. Kagome says it's not even a real sport, but, feh, what does she know? She's just a girl!" Souta rambled on, but Inuyasha sat watching the stupid men trading blows. They were pulling legs and arms; anything to gain the upper hand against their opponent. Inuyasha found these moves interesting and stored them in the back of his mind for later use. Then Kagome came down. "Okay, Inuyasha! I'm ready for you to drag me back to the Feudal Era!" ~*End of Flashback*~ Inuyasha snapped out of his dazed state as quickly as he had gone into it. He knew that his brother was coming at him very fast, and he knew that she would expect another jab at him with Tetssaiga. He tossed the sword to the side which has transformed back into the old worn useless sword as before.
Sesshoumaru was a little startled at his brother's last minute actions. He was sure that Inuyasha was going to try and take a swipe at him. Oh well. It wouldn't help him, anyway. He thought defiantly, claws extended.
He was a foot in front of Inuyasha, who stood there like a deer caught in the headlights. Just as Sesshoumaru's claw's were about to make contact with his chest, he put his arm up which struck Sesshoumaru's head first. This stunned Sesshoumaru who fell back. Inuyasha took advantage of this second and jumped on top of his brother's back, like he had seen the wrestlers do, and to his satisfaction, heard a rather loud and disturbing crack.
Sesshoumaru pushed his brother from on top of him nad ignored the pain that was driving him crazy. He tried to plunge his claws deep into his chest, but Inuyasha had managed to out Sesshoumaru into a head lock, and thrust his knee into his stomach. At that exact moment, Kagome and Sango were freed from their poisonous prisons. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Kagome watched in amazement as Inuyasha wrestled Sesshoumaru. She was very relieved and also a little humored, that Inuyasha was beating Sesshoumaru. Out of the corner of her eye, she could see Sango watch the new fighting techniques with interest. It was then that she felt a burning sensation and she could feel that poison hold draining from her body. She turned to Sango, who was also moving a little, before she turned her attention back to Inuyasha.
He punched Inuyasha one last time before there was another loud crack, and he disappeared into the trees.
SO sorry that it took so long for me to get this out, but I just now had an idea of what direction I wanted the story to go in. Please forgive me. Arigatou. Please review. It would mean a great deal to me.
