*~*~*~*~*
Demon Within
Chp 8 Reunion * Fire Rat Kimonos Are In Style
*~*~*~*~*
The group settled again near by a small stream and some hot springs.
As the group split up to do their respective things (Sango beating up Miroku, Shippo bugging Kouga & Jenny, Rin beat up Jaken with Sesshomaru looking on with hidden pride and InuTasha assisted in beating up Miroku) Kagome watched as Rin finished up 'playing' with Jaken and running to Sesshomaru.
It amazed her how a demon so murderous as him could find the room in his heart to adopt a small human girl.
She looked over at Inu-Tasha. They had just met her today, right after Sesshomaru. . .
(~F~L~A~S~H~B~A~C~K~)
The group continued on after Sarah departed. They saw Sesshomaru up ahead on the dirt road and watched as Rin hopped off Ah-Un and ran to him with childish adoration.
Sesshomaru looked briefly surprised when Rin hugged his leg. "Have you behaved, Rin?" he asked.
"Yes Sesshomaru-sama!! Rin has missed you!" Rin said happily, petting his tail.
A distant look flashed over his face, the mask he usually wore slid down for a second, but he picked up Rin and glided over.
"Sesshy-sama!" Jaken cried, trying to reach the taiyoukai but being held back by the rope leash Rin had tied him with to Ah-Un's tail. On his way over Sesshomaru kicked Jaken, one of his personal favorite pastimes and continued walking forward. Jaken hit Ah-Un's hind leg, which bothered them, and promptly was met with another kick.
"We need to talk," he said, in his usual cold, emotionless voice, a façade the whole group saw through a second ago when he accidently let a tiny smile slip as he picked Rin up.
So the group had traveled another mile or two before the reaching the aforementioned clearing.
"Where is the half-breed brother of mine?" Sesshomaru asked.
Well.
Very straightforward.
Miroku sweatdropped and answered, "Right now we don't know, but we are looking for him. . ."
"We need you to help us Sesshomaru," Kagome finished matter-o-factly.
One of Sesshomaru's finely shaped eyebrows arched. "What for?" he asked. "I have no need of traveling companions. I can locate Inuyasha on my own." He started to rise from his spot, but Kagome stopped him.
"you can't by yourself! He's to strong!"
Sesshomaru glanced at her again. The look he had could freeze water and it was obvious he didn't like what he was hearing. "Are you telling me that this Sesshomaru is weaker than a common hanyou?"
Kagome gulped nervously. "N-no, what I mean is that last time we saw Inuyasha, he had five shikon shards."
~Five shards. . . Perhaps I can use the human wench and her annoying friends. . .~
Sesshomaru contemplated over his choices. If he went alone, he wouldn't have to deal with all of them, and he could try to kill Inuyasha in peace without them interfering. However, without others around, there was a less likely chance he could protect Rin from any damage that could happen.
Kill Inuyasha.
Rin.
Kill Inuyasha.
Rin.
As much as he would like to kill Inuyasha, Rin was his first priority. Sighing, he sat back down, quietly staring at the entire group. "Fine."
Kagome let out a breath she didn't know she was holding. "I still don't know how we are supposed to restrain Inuyasha. . ."
"You're forgetting us," Jenny pointed out. "I've been quiet, but that doesn't mean I'm not here. To get to the point, there's three demons here. If two of us can pin Inuyasha down and someone else attempt to knock him out then we might have a chance of restoring himself."
Kouga snorted. "I can take that dog-turd on any day," he bragged, crossing his arms with a look of pride on his face.
"Did you not hear the 'five shikon jewel shards' part?" Jenny retorted sharply. "From what Sango told me, He beat you without any shards, while you had three of them, when you tried to kidnap Kagome! Imagine what five shards can do!"
Kouga was stunned, but he wouldn't ever admit defeat. "so?" he muttered under his breath.
"Now he's way more powerful, and don't forget, he decimated your entire pack!!" Sango put in. "I'm tired of you bragging all the time! This is a team effort, we have to work together, got it?"
Kouga was about to yell back another sharp retort when Miroku scooted over and clamped hi hand over his mouth. "Right now," He whispered, "Is when you fear sango. Right now is when you shut up and right now is when you obey her before she hurts you." (A/N: I couldn't help but put that in! Sango is my favorite character! She rocks! My sn is also Sango! I want a big-ass boomerang XD Sango pride!!)
"Yeah!" Kagome chimed in again, hugging Shippo. "So stop arguing please, Kouga. We need to work together to find Inuyasha~"
"Did you say Inuyasha?"
A female dog demon leaped down from the trees above them and landed softly in front of the group. She resembled Inuyasha faintly, with white dog-ears, but she had ice blue eyes and she was carrying some sort of sword. She also was wearing a fire-rat outfit, only it was a deep shade of sapphire blue.
"Are fire rat kimonos in style?" Kagome asked Sango, who shrugged before getting up and grabbing her boomerang.
"Who are you, and what do you want with Inuyasha?" She asked in an almost monotone voice. (A/N: Been doing it a lot lately, hasn't she?)
The girl glared at her in such an Inuyasha-like fashion it was scary. "I asked you once," she growled. "Where is he?"
Sango stood her ground, glaring back at the girl. "Answer me first."
Suddenly the girl leapt at her, claws extended. "If you won't tell me," she snarled, swiping at Sango who blocked her with her boomerang, "I-swipe-will- swipe-have-swipe-to-swipe-force it-swipe-out of you!" She continued hacking away until Sango suddenly thrusted her boomerang back, the heavy point almost cleaving through her side.
"You will answer first!"
The girl glared at her. "I need to find Inuyasha," she spat out. "I heard right now he's in bad condition and I heard he was traveling with a bunch of humans!"
Sango glared back at her, not liking her Inuyasha-like attitude. "How do you know that?" Kagome broke in, grabbing her bows and arrows just in case.
The girl glared at Kagome too. "Excuse me if his own cousin is concerned when she finds out he's turned insane and is on a killing spree!" she glared again at Kagome.
"Wait, did you say cousin?" She asked curiously.
The girl rolled her eyes, "no, I said flying evil monkeys. Really, I am daughter of Inu-Tasha, sister of Inu-Taisho. I am named after my mother, Inutasha, and I've been looking for him. You got a problem with that?" she finished.
"It could be true," Sango said uncertainly. "She certainly acts like Inuyasha. . ."
"It is true." They other four demons instantly responded.
"We all just had a good whiff of her scent," Jenny said.
"And she smells sorta similar~" Shippo continued.
"To the dog-turd~" guess who?
"And my father." Sesshomaru finished.
"so you're looking for Inuyasha?" Kagome asked.
"Yeah," Inutasha said, looking over at her.
(~E~N~D~F~L~A~S~H~B~A~C~K~)
And so Inutasha had joined the group in searching for Inuyasha. . .
Kagome sighed, stood up, and stretched. "It's getting late guys!" she yelled. I'm going to sleep!. . ." s
Yawning, she grabbed her blue sleeping bag and spread it out, slipping in it and momentarily stopping to let Shippo crawl in. "Good night everyone!" she called out sleepily.
"Good night Kagome-chan," Sango called back, bashing Miroku once again before walking off to polish her boomerang and go to sleep.
"night Kagome-sama. . ." Miroku mumbled before slumping to the ground in unconsciousness.
Sesshomaru didn't respond, only leaning against a tree, is amber eyes glowing in the dark before he dozed off lightly. Kouga ran off who knows where, after the first night he attempted to sleep next to her and got bashed in by sango's boomerang.
Inutasha huffed angrily and kicked Miroku's body once more before stomping over and leaping in the tree above Kagome.
Kagome eye's fluttered shut and her thoughts drifted off to certain male hanyous. . .
"Inuyasha. . ." she whispered.
"You like my cousin don't you?"
Kagome nearly jumped in fright, following the voice up to its owner in the leafy treetop.
"W-what makes you think that?" she asked.
The blue-eyed girl snorted. "It's obvious. And I can smell it on you."
Kagome, blushing brilliant red, snuggled down in her sleeping bad and choose to ignore her comment.
~*~* Somewhere in a galaxy far, far away-I mean, near, uh somewhere, yeah!*~*~
Inuyasha bounded off a tree branch, landing softly on the forest floor.
He gingerly sniffed the air.
Turning to his left and leaping into the treetops, he followed the scent of a human village-
And a shikon shard.
A electric line shot through him, warning bells rang through his head, and he suddenly kicked back off a tree trunk and hit the ground. An arrow was embedded into the tree trunk seconds after he kicked off of it. He growled warningly, searching the area for the person who wielded the bow~
His nose was filled with the stench of death, gloom, and mud.
Guess who?
Another arrow shot towards him and he dodged it.
The master was a miko in red and white robes with a deadly expression-no pun intended.
"Now Inuyasha," she whispered, "Is the time you come to hell with me. . ."
she notched three arrows to the string and let them fly, sending arrow after arrow after him, nailing the ground where he once stood as he nimbly avoided all of them.
Kikyo's eyes narrowed. "Inuyasha, you owe me your life. . ." she shot another barrage of arrows. "You will die!!"
They continued the routine of shoot-and-miss, the arrowheads gleaming bright silver in the moonlight. When Kikyo ran out of arrows, she tosses the bow aside and came at him, hands raised and crackling with purple electricity.
"DIE INUYASHA!!" she screamed, the purple lightning charging at him and trapping him in a circle.
Inuyasha snarled, glancing around and bracing himself for the blast. The shock of miko energy surrounded him and burned away at his clothes and his skin. . .
Inuyasha leaped out of the ring, charging at Kikyo with his claws poised and ready to attack.
Kikyo, surprised, barely had enough time to raise a shield to block herself. Concentrating her energy on the shield, she located Inuyasha's soul presence.
~His soul. . .~
~It's different than before. . .~
~It's more evil. . .~
Mean while, outside the bubble Inuyasha stopped hacking at the shield and sniffed the air again before concentrating his hanyou senses over the entire shield.
He grinned.
He had found it.
With raised claws, he struck the shield exactly at the point Kikyo was staring at, to her left, right above her arms.
Kikyo's eyes widened in surprise as her shield shattered into pieces, leaving herself unprotected and temporarily drained of energy.
Inuyasha had managed to find the pressure point on her shield and therefore broke it, something a hanyou shouldn't be capable of doing.
Only then did she notice the seven shikon shards glowing crimson red in his forehead. (A/N: A rhyme! How special!)
The last thing she say was long white claws and blood red eyes.
Her body crumbled around Inuyasha's arm, which he had drove through her chest. There was no blood, no corpse, as the bones and dirt she was made of slowly returned to their original form.
"You. . . Are not. . . Inuyasha. . ." she choked as she dissolved. "You. . . are only. . . a. . . machine. . ."
All that was left of her was a pile of dirt and miko robes.
A pang went through Inuyasha's mind. . .
For the first time in his life, as far as he could remember, he felt like he'd done something horribly wrong.
The feeling was only momentary before he leaped into the trees again.
There had been no blood~
~Crimson liquid that tasted so sweet~
~no blood to mark his victory~
~no blood that he craved.
The hanyou that was once Inuyasha~
~was only now a blood-lusting, all powerful killer, a virtual god of Death in his own glory. . .
Inuyasha was no more.
~*~* Das Ende *~*~
.The end. What do you think?
. . .
. . .
NO REALLY?!?!
Seriously, you thought I would let it end like that?
Although that COULD be a good ending. . .
::sees readers advance on her with pitchforks, knives, and torches::
Eep!! Okay!! I WILL finish it! ::cowers in fear::
Seriously, I'm really sorry for not updating. I get all my brilliant ideas at night when I'm going to sleep. And it came to me last night. I hope this ending was good enough for da Kikyo haters.
So anyway, That's all I have to say~
~Oh yeah and, plz read me other fics! If you like Inu/Kag angst, then please read 'Live for me' and 'The Darkest Moment is Just before Dawn'!!
g2g~!!
