Chapter 19: The Kiss of the Dark Dragon
"This is so boring!" Kagome said as he yawned. She had been kept in the same room with Naraku and Tastunai for three hours. All the two men did was staring at each other
The door flew open and Kagura stormed in. "Tastunai!" she growled.
"Yes, sister?" Tastunai still hadn't torn her stare from Naraku's lifeless eyes.
"Your…your…what are you doing?" Kagura finally asked.
"Staring contest." Kagome said.
"Oh." Kagura said down as she watched. "I know who's going to win."
"Who?" Kagome asked excited.
"Whoever doesn't blink which means Naraku-sama. Never have I seen him link. Tastunai has two minutes left."
"Oh. Go Naraku!" Kagome said.
He turned to her and glared.
"You lose." Tastunai said as he hit him upside the head.
"How dare you play around with this Naraku." He said to Kagome.
"You lose, deal with it." Kagome said as she sighed. "This isn't getting us anywhere. I thought you said you were going to kill her? If you aren't then I'll just have to leave."
"You aren't aloud to. I forgot. I have a surprise for you." Naraku said as he stood up and walked to the door. "It's more for Sango…but I know you'll love it just the same."
Kagome raised a quizzical eyebrow at his back.
He pulled open the door and there stood Kohaku.
"K…Kohaku?" she whispered as she stood up.
The young bow with the short black ponytail looked up. His eyes showed no trace of remembrance or fear.
"This one is for you." Naraku said as he pulled open the second door to show…
*--*--*
"I can smell Naraku and that Tastunai guy over there!" Inuyasha called to the two on the ground.
Sango looked up into the trees. "A storm." She muttered.
"That's bad." Miroku whispered back.
"I see the castle!" Inuyasha said as he jumped forward and unsheathed his claws and sliced at the very thin barrier.
*--*--*
…Kaede. The little girl's hair was tied in a miko style ponytail and her clothes where that of a high miko.
"Kaede?" Kagome stepped forward.
"Naraku-sama! That's horrible!" Tastunai cried as she threw a throwing star at him.
He had a barrier up and it bounced back.
Suddenly Kohaku charged forward at Kagome throwing his bone weapon at her.
"Stop it Kohaku!" Kagome cried as she unsheathed her katana and blocked the weapon. The bone smashed through the wall making the hole large enough for people to walk through.
He kicked her out.
Naraku, Tastunai, and Kagura followed out. Naraku put a hand on Kohaku's arm and smiled.
"Now…if you'll cooperate with me then I won't have to use both your loved ones on you." He said.
"No more playing around!" Kagome spat out as he lifted her sword and threw it in the air, it landed lightening fast in Kirara's forehead making the shard fall out, Kirara unharmed. Kirara trotted over to her and hissed at Naraku.
Kagome jumped at the katana and knelt on one knee. "Naraku, I'll kill you!" she yelled as she lunged forward.
"Tastunai." He said to the Kunoichi.
Tastunai nodded as she unsheathed her own katana and lunged forth.
Their katana's met with a clash.
"You're tough miko-sama. Maybe you should rest!" with her free arm she threw some throwing stars. They stabbed into Kagome's arm but her grip on her katana didn't slacken. She winced painfully and smirked.
"At a time like this…I'm not one to let my strength lighten up." She said as he pushed full force.
Tastunai jumped backward and landed in the shadows. Her long braid was the only thing you could see as she jumped into a tree.
"Kaede, Kohaku." Naraku said to the young children.
"Hai, Naraku-sama." They both said, tranceness dripping from their words.
"Kill her." He said.
"Hai, Naraku-sama."
*--*--*
*clash*
"AHH!"
"That was Kagome's scream." Inuyasha said as they approached the castle.
"AHHH!"
"She's in pain." Sango said as both Miroku and Sango climbed on Inuyasha's back as he jumped over the wall.
*--*--*
Kaede shot and arrow at Kagome, slicing through her kimono yukata.
Kohaku threw his weapon, slicing her arm.
Kaede them got close and took out four ofudos. She placed them on Kagome's legs and arms. She then activated them and a blue electrical shot ran through Kagome's body.
"Why aren't you fighting back?" Naraku asked from above.
"I…can't!" Kagome yelled as the electrical waves ceased.
Kohaku threw his chaired bone weapon slicing across her cheek.
Finally both the kids stood back to back to back as they lifted their weapons. Kaede pulled back her bowstring and aimed at Kagome's shoulder as Kohaku aimed at her leg.
"Fine. You cannot kill your loved ones…then they will kill you." Naraku said.
"No Naraku-sama!" Tastunai said.
"Go!" he yelled.
The arrow flew, the weapon aimed, the blood splattered as Kagome let out one loud cry of pain and fell to the ground.
Her arm bandage was sliced open as a black aura started to rise. She clutched her arm painfully and as the dragon started weaving it's way out of her arm then back in the others came.
"Kagome!"
"Kagome-chan! Kirara!"
"Kagome-sama!"
She hadn't looked up but concentrated on her arm. The black dragon burnt through her hand and she had to pull it away.
Inuyasha was the first by her side before the dragon burst.
"What's that?!" Naraku yelled surprised.
"The Kiss of the Dark Dragon!" Tastunai said as she raised her fan and put an ice shield to cover her sister, the two kids, and her master.
Kagome stood up and pointed the dragon toward the ice barrier.
It rammed into the barrier, easily shattering it.
Kagome braced her feet making a deep hole with her shoes and all but ripped her sleeve off from the blast.
Kagura did some quick tactics as she, Kohaku, Kaede, and her sister jumped onto the feather leaving the kugutsu of Naraku to burn by the black dragons kiss-aka blast from it's mouth by covering it's victim's face with it's mouth and breathing miasma all over the victim killing it instantly-.
When all was done Kagome collapsed with her arm lightly resting in front of her.
Sango ran over to Kirara, picked her up then dashed over to where everyone else was crowding around Kagome.
They all looked at Kagome's arm. It had a black dragon shape wrapped all the way around her arm, from the middle of her upper arm to the palm of her hand.
"That's why she had her arm completely covered. I would think it would only cover her forearm." Miroku said.
"This is the curse of the forest spirit. Although he said it was a gift, it has damaged her in many ways." Sango said.
"She pushed herself." Was all Inuyasha could say.
Miroku they bandaged her whole arm and turned her over.
They all gasped.
"Kohaku did this." Sango said painfully as she pointed to her leg and her arm and cheek.
"The little girl did these." Miroku pointed to her shoudler, and other places where the arrows had hit.
"What's this?" Inuyasha picked up her other arm.
"Throwing stars." Sango muttered. "A Kunoichi is on Naraku's side."
"We better get her to the next village." Miroku said as Inuyasha picked her upa dn rested her on his back.
