Chapter 11
CRASH!!!
"Daddy!" Chika shot straight up in bed, clutching the blankets close to her small body. Her body trembled.
"Daddy!"
"Chika! Are you alright!?" Miroku barged into the room, his night robe whirling around his feet as he came to a halt. Seeing her dad enter, Chika shot out of bed and globbed herself on her father's legs. Miroku picked her up ad held her close, trying to stop her sobs of fright. "Shhhh, it's alright baby, it was only a crash. . ."
Miroku heard a scream.
"Inuyasha!" Miroku ran out of Chika's room, her holding tightly to his robe.
Sango already had her boomerang in her hand when he entered their part of the room. "Miroku, someone needs help!"
"No shit! You figure that one out all by your damn self!"
Both turned to see Inuyasha standing in the doorway with Kagome who, at the moment, was scolding her husband. "Inuyasha!! Now is not the time to be a jackass!"
Inuyasha turned on her, "And now's not the time to be saying dumb ass things!"
"Alright! Let's just go see what the trouble is!" Shouted Miroku, who had grabbed his staff. "Kagome, put Chika in a room with Shippou and Makoto. Then grab your arrows and come find us." Kagome nodded, took Chika from Miroku, and headed towards hers and Inuyasha's room.
Inuyasha adjusted the Testsusiaga. "Let's go." Everyone ran out the door.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Rin.
The first thing that popped into Sesshomaru's head was Rin. She needs help and what is he doing? Standing her just thinking when he should be acting!
"Oh Kami-sama, Rin!"
Reiko ripped from her lover's arms and shot out from the balcony, Sesshomaru only a step behind. Tearing the door almost all the way off the hinges, they made their way down the hall, which was loaded with startled servants. Smoke was floating around in the hall, its odor strong making them cough.
"Sesshomaru-sama! Help!"
"Rin!" Her voice was coming from the ballroom. Sesshomaru sped up, taking a glance into her room to see her window broken, and her room alighted in a blaze of fire. Servants' trying to douse the flames was the last thing he saw as he ran to the ballroom, Reiko by his side. Rin screamed again.
Sesshomaru ran faster, his anger and fueling his adrenaline. How dare someone put harm on his Rin! She hasn't done anything! Why-
It hit him. He knew who was in his castle. Sesshomaru glanced at Reiko, only to see her face diverted forward, anxious to help the little girl as much as he was. He growled and finally made it to the ballroom doors. They were closed.
With a huge lunge, Sesshomaru rammed through the doors, pure hatred in his eyes as he shouted. "OTECK!! WHERE ARE YOU?!"
"I'm right here you bastard of a youkai!" he glanced up. There was Oteck, hanging from a chandelier like a spider; Rin dangling in his arms crying. "Sesshomaru-sama!"
"Rin! Oteck let her go! She has nothing to do with this!" Sesshomaru clenched and unclenched his fist, really pissed off at the ugly looking man. Reiko on the other hand, looked like she was about to faint. Her face went pale and she began shaking.
Oteck averted his eyes to Reiko. He chuckled, "Well if it isn't Reiko. So, how is my bundle of power after ten years?"
Reiko tried to get her breath under control. Oteck bore into her gaze, his ugly eyes consuming all of her attention. Reiko shuddered and shook her head. "No! I won't! I won't let my fear take control of me this time! NO!" She shut her eyes tight and clenched her teeth.
"You don't have a choice whore! It's time for you to come back to me like a good little slave. Come now or the girl dies!" Rin screamed as he held her with one hand, about 20 feet in the air.
Sesshomaru started to growl deep in his throat and spat. "You coward! Using people's weaknesses to get what you want!"
Oteck only shrugged, "Hey if it works then use it. The only way to get what you want in life is to make people fear you!" He shook the girl and she started to cry. "Now, are you coming or not Reiko?"
Reiko eyes shot open, her teeth bared and arms stretched towards him. "NOT! GO TO HELL OTECK!" A black ball of energy shot out of her hands, straight towards his face.
Oteck gasped, his hands being full he can't summon his own magic to defend himself. "Foolish move woman!" Rin dropped, screaming.
"RIN!!" Sesshomaru jumped in the air, only inches from the girl. Rin felt herself hit something hard and yet soft, and curled into a ball. When he landed, he lost his footing and fell, sliding across the ballroom floor and crashing into the end wall.
"Sesshomaru! Get her out of here now!" Reiko yelled while running away from Oteck, who was jumping along the banisters on the ceiling in Reiko's direction.
"You bitch! Why is it you always seem to ruin everything!? You and that damn demon!" Oteck shouted in great anger.
Reiko came to a jerk stop and spun around, her negative energy flaring in his direction. Oteck retaliated by bringing forth his own energy and shooting it towards hers, to cancel it out.
"We are evenly matched my dear! You can't win against me!" Oteck jumped off the banister, landing on top of Reiko making her fall with a loud thud.
"Get off of her!!!"
Oteck looked up, only to be hit with a giant boomerang square in the face. Oteck screamed and fell backwards, Reiko scrambling away from under him. Sango, Miroku, Inuyasha, and Kagome stormed into the room, their weapons poised and ready. Oteck quickly got to his feet and jumped, landing a little rough on a banister.
"Ouch! That hurt you pest!" Oteck rubbed his now broken nose, hearing the cartilage cracking under his touch. Blood ran down his face and into his mouth, one eye puffed and the other with a cut on its eyelid.
"Serves you right you coward! Leave here now and never come after Reiko again!" Kagome cocked an arrow and took aim at him.
Oteck only smiled, "Foolish one! You think an arrow can stop my almighty power! Then you clearly don't know who I am!" He pointed two fingers at Sesshomaru who had just stood up. His energy shot towards him, wrapping around Sesshomaru's body. Sesshomaru groaned in pain and fell to the ground, Rin crying even more.
"Sesshomaru! No please Oteck let them be! I'm the one you want not them!" Reiko ran forward, only to be hit in the side with his magic.
"You will never learn, will you Reiko? I don't care who I'm after! If someone is in my way I will dispose of them!" Oteck clenched his fist close, the bands binding Sesshomaru tightening, making his scream in agony. Oteck laughed like a maniac!
She struggled to rise on her elbows; tears streaming down her face. This is all her fault. . . all hers. She is to blame for everything. Everyone she knew died because of her. She couldn't take it anymore. She had to stop it here and now.
"Oteck. . . leave. . . him. . . alone."
"Why should I? It's fun!" The bindings became tighter and Sesshomaru screamed in pain. Reiko shook with anger.
Something clicked in Reiko's mind, and her magic flared. "I said. . . LEAVE HIM ALONE!" she came into a crouch and jumped into the air. With an immense shout her energy shot out of her back, twisting and forming into wings. Oteck looked on in shock.
"What - how -? When did she learn this!? You aren't supposed to know about this!"
"It's too late!" she barreled into him making him lose concentration so the bindings around Sesshomaru disappeared. He slumped to the floor, all his strength gone.
"Sesshomaru-sama!" he felt a small weight on his shoulders.
"Yes, Rin, I'm fine. What about Reiko?" Sesshomaru looked up and watched in awe.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Oteck crashed through one of the grand windows, landing in the courtyard, glass littering the ground. Quickly getting up, he went into battle stance, keeping his eyes on the sky. "Where are you?!"
"Over here you maggot!" he spun around. A giant energy ball was coming towards him, which he only just dodged. Reiko rose into the air, her wings silhouetting the ground.
Oteck gave a look of disgust and raised a hand. "You think just because you learned a new trick you can defeat me?! Then let's test your theory!" Palm outstretched, strings of white energy shot out, pointed directly at Reiko.
"I'm not sure how I did this but at least my fear doesn't control me! All more the sweeter when I kick the shit out of you!" With one swing of her right arm, energy shot out of her own hand creating a black, sizzling whip. The strings of energy came closer. With one crack of the whip, it sliced through the strings, making them evaporate into thin air.
Oteck growled. "Dammit!"
Reiko's whip came down and wrapped around Oteck's wrist. He groaned in pain and fell to his knees. Reiko only pulled harder. "It's time for you to die!"
"I beg to differ my dear!" he sneered. Grabbing the whip with his other hand, he sent forth his own energy up the whip. Reiko's eyes widened in shock and screamed when his magic touched the skin on her hand. Her back arched and the whip vanished. Oteck took this opportunity to run. Just before he left he shouted one last thing.
"By sunset today you shall be gone! Enjoy your last day on this pathetic world!" He disappeared into the night.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Everyone watched in horror as Reiko fell from the sky. Sesshomaru put down Rin and rushed to her side. He gave a sigh of relief when he saw her move. Reiko tried to stand, but only made it to a kneeling position. Sesshomaru put one arm behind her shoulders and one under her knees and lifted, carrying her bridal style. Reiko tried to speak, "S-Sesshomaru. . . are you. . ." She fell unconscious before she could finish.
Sesshomaru silently carried her back to their room, put her in a clean robe, and laid her on the bed. He snuggled closer to her and wrapped his arms around her waist. Rin, who had followed them, snuggled on her other side, falling asleep in minutes. Sesshomaru lay awake, keeping his gaze on Reiko's strained face.
"Kami-sama. . . what is going on with you, Reiko?" he closed his eyes and fell into a fitful sleep.
