Legal Note: I don't own Inu-yasha. Why not? Because I lost it in a bid for copyright. The winner was Rumiko Takahashi. It helps that she made it and I just wanted to be able to say I owned it. Anyway lets move on.

"A-Aka-Akandoji?!" The villager yelped before leaving me in the dust.
"Pheh. These people are no help. Toto-sai said to defeat that ogre. How will I if I can't even find the damn demon? I wish I had my damn demon senses at least." I slumped my back in defeat.
"Mister, are you looking for that ogre?" A dumb kid was tugging on my sleeve.
"So you know somethin' kid?"
"You bet. The grown-ups are too scaredy cats. The big scary monster shows up from his home outside town."
"You sure about that kid?"
"Uh-huh."
"Okay here I go. Er, thanks."
"Okay mister." The kid was already running away joyfully.
I entered the woods just out of town when I spotted a shack. I spotted some human bones about the place. It stunk, the place smelt like death even to my human nose. That's when I heard a noise just as I was thrown through a tree. I looked up to see a demon with red skin and two bent horns coming from it's head. It lifted a large studded club as it came for me. I stood and noticed a drip of blood from my forehead that landed on my hand.
"Damn human body. C'mon Akandoji!" I ran down the trail to the field that fell between the forest and the town. I needed the room to fight.
"Come back human!" The ogre moved from the woods following me.
"Human? I'll show you!" I clenched my fists tight charging the beast.
"Foolish weakling!" The ogre took his club swinging me across the field and into town where the villagers moved into their homes. I stood as the giant lurched through the field towards me.
"I am no weakling, and I'm no damn human!"
"Fooled me human."
"Shut up ogre! I am! I'll prove that even cursed I am strong." I clenched my fists once more running at the behemoth. He hits me once more with his club sending me to the air skipping across some roofs before landing on the dirt street.
"Damnit!" I stood with all my injuries. "How do I beat this thing?" Picking up a broken shard of wood I headed towards the street the demon stood. "Come on fool!"
"Fool? You are the one who acts foolish." He gave a grin of satisfaction as he slowly came for me. With each step the ground shook lightly. Halfway we met. I would win this time, I was faster even in human form.
"Here I come." I gave a slight smile moving at him
He returned my advance with a downward swing of his club, but I moved to his left. Jamming the wooden piece in his left knee I jumped up latching onto one of his horns. He moved his free hand grabbing me around my waist with his large hand.
"Get off human!" He pulled me as hard could.
Still holding his left horn I was thrown to the ground as he dealt with the pain. Pocketing the horn I stood smiling.
"Forfeit this match you one-horned pig. Remove your second horn." I stood pointing to him.
"I-I forfeit." He closed his eyes pulling his second horn from his head and threw it before me. His two horns will give proof I defeated him.
"You know about ogres and their horns correct Akandoji?"
"Unfortunately. They become tame." He walked back for his home with a face of sadness.
The villagers came out cheering me as I picked up the second horn placing it with the other. In celebration I was given food and a place to stay. I accepted since my fragile human body was beaten up from my battle.
"Old man! I'm back." I arrived at Toto-sai's cave.
"Back? Who are you?" He said scratching his head as I moved to whack him he dropped his Momo on me.
"Oh it's you Inu-yasha. What brings you here?"
Getting up off the ground I looked to him with an evil glare. "You said if I beat that ogre Akandoji you'd make me a new weapon to beat Sessho-maru with.
"I did?"
"Grr! YES YOU DID!" I stomped my foot on the ground.
"Oh right. Akandoji you say?"
"Uh-huh. I have his two horns to prove it." I took out the horns in each hand.
"Good, because those horns are your new weapon."
"What? Old man you could've mentionaed that when I left. What if I hadn't brought them back?"
"Brought what back?"
Keeping under control I stared at him with fury. "Old man just make me the new weapon from these horns."
"Oh right the weapon. It'll take some time."
"I can wait." I handed the senile fool the horns.
"You done yet? It's been about a day." I came into the cave where Toto-sai was lazing about.
"Done?"
"You better not say done with what." I looked at him with fire in eye.
"Oh right. Here's the Heisotsu Inu-yasha." He took out a Kusari-gama with the two horns at each end.
"Uh, I can't use this!"
"You can't?"
"I have no idea how to handle a Kusari-gama!"
"Oh, too bad then. What were you expecting?"
"I don't know. Two daggers?"
"Maybe I should have forged those."
"I'll take it anyway. I can learn how to handle the blasted thing." I took the weapon from the old man's hands examining it.
"It is just as powerful as the Tetsuaiga. Maybe stronger."
"Does it have something like the wind scar?"
"You'll have to find that out yourself." I quickly whacked his skull.
"Why do you old guys always make us worthy beings learn it?"
I slapped my neck just then. Low and behold I find my old "pal" Myoga.
"Just what do you think you're doing?" I grabbed the little demon in my fingers.
"Lord Inu-yasha. Long time no?"
"I guess it's safe out here." I rolled my eyes.
"Ahem. My lord may I ask why you're in human form?"
"Heh-heh. Only if you can tell me how to use the Heisotsu here."
"Ah a Kusari-gama. I indeed know how you may use one in combat."
"Then we have a deal." I sat down with a smile on my face flicking the demon to the dirt. "We have a lot of training to do."

Why I should update this I don't know. I don't think anymore of this should go. There is 7 more chapters but I don't think I'll put 'em up. After some time I may even take this one down.
Give me two reviews and they need to be two who haven't posted and I'll continue.
