Chapter 6
"...its y-you..."
"Yes.it would seem that it is me, wouldn't it, Inuyasha?"
Inuyasha couldn't move. He was shivering, and was immobilized. The figure came over, and stepped on Inuyasha's head, making him growl.
"Get off me...Sesshomaru!"
With his yell, everyone else woke up.
"W-what's going on?" Miroku asked.
"Y-yeah...what's with all the ruckus?" Sango asked, rubbing her eyes.
Shippo, who wasn't all that interested, just fell back to sleep.
"Who's that?" Sango asked, "...where's Kagome...?"
As soon as she asked the question, she looked over and saw her best friend lying on the ground, looking like an icicle and shivering. She would've gotten up, but Miroku pushed her down.
"Wha-"
"Let her be Sango. She just needs to get used to the warm air again..."
Sango stopped squirming and settled down. Miroku took his hands off of her, and stepped back.
"Inuyasha...where did you get these delinquents?" Sesshomaru asked, taking his foot off of his brother's head. Inuyasha sat up, and brushed himself off.
"The girl needed to get somewhere to fulfill some prophecy or something of the sort.and they came with her..."
"I'll ask again, Miroku, who is he?" Sango whispered.
"He's Lord Inuyasha's elder brother, Sesshomaru."
"Oh..."
As everyone looked back over to the two brothers, they turned just in time to see Sesshomaru's eyes open wide.
"Prophecy?" Sesshomaru asked, eyes opened wide.
"Yeah...some prophecy about killing some weird psychopathic demon lord who wants to control the world..." Inuyasha grunted, standing up.
"Does it happen to named Naraku?"
"Yeah...why?"
"So it is true..."
"What? What is true?"
"The prophecy...that a girl would destroy the demon lord Naraku, and bring a new era of peace and tranquility..."
Inuyasha sat in shock, now aware that what he had heard was true.
"He can't be all that bad...I haven't heard anything about what he has done..."
"Nothing has been told to you...Kakera is deteriorating, and the other surrounding countries have fallen as well. Only Shikon remains...and, even now, he's moving in to destroy us..."
Inuyasha, Sango and Miroku all looked down in sadness, seeing a future of their soon-to-be destroyed homeland, angst written upon their faces.
"So what do we do?"
Everyone looked over to see a still thawing Kagome sit up, shivering. Sango rushed over, and put her hands on her best friend's shoulders.
"What are we gonna do?" Inuyasha asked, putting his arms crossed over his chest.
Sesshomaru paused, and then turned to the forest, "...Rin."
"Yes! Yes, Lord Sesshomaru?" A young woman yelled, running out of the forest. Kagome noticed that the girl looked a few years younger than her, and that she looked kind of like her as well.
"Get me that scroll that King Hiroshi kindly threw at us..."
"You mean the one that he threw after you made him angry?"
"Yes...that one."
"Alright!" She yelled, prancing back to the forest.
"What scroll did he throw at you?"
"Something about the prophecy that I had asked him about.then he became enraged and threw it at me. But, then again, I also asked him if the search for his child was going well..."
"Lord Sesshomaru..."
".And he probably thought that I was being rather pompous, and then he became upset, kicking the table and throwing that scroll at me..."
"Lord Sesshomaru..."
"...Then he threw us out...in a sense. More like having his guards push us out, and then screaming at us to never show our faces in that country ever again."
"Lord Sesshomaru!"
"What, Rin?!"
Rin fell back, looking frightened, and stammering, "...Y-you're s-s- scroll that y-you a-asked for..." she said, holding the rolled up paper out.
Sesshomaru's look softened, and smiled at Rin. He took the paper out of her hand, and handed it to his younger brother, who grunted in response. He opened it, and read it carefully, then handed it to Miroku, who read it as well.
"It would seem that we need to find this "castle built by the lords of before", and find this "Naraku", Inuyasha..."
"..."
"You also need to find it soon...the phrase "when the eye of the moon will block out the sun", is indicating a solar eclipse...which once is supposed to occur not too long from now..." Sesshomaru replied coolly.
Everyone paused, as if they were pondering the issue. Then, finally, Inuyasha spoke.
"I'm not going to let some demon who thinks he can control the world defeat us! I'll take a chance on this legend...and I'll see to it that it comes true!"
*W-what? He's going to help me?* Kagome thought.
"Well, wherever Inuyasha goes, I'll be right behind him." Miroku smiled.
*Miroku too?*
"I'll help...Inuyasha's too weak...and my country isn't going to deteriorate while I'm around." Sesshomaru added, his face still looking unemotional.
"And wherever my lord goes, Rin follows happily!" Rin yelled, a large smile coming to her face.
"You know I'll help you Kagome." Sango whispered.
*Thank you...Thank you everyone!*
Kagome smiled.
"Let's get going then!" Inuyasha said, his face determined.
"...its y-you..."
"Yes.it would seem that it is me, wouldn't it, Inuyasha?"
Inuyasha couldn't move. He was shivering, and was immobilized. The figure came over, and stepped on Inuyasha's head, making him growl.
