Fateful Encounter with Hakudoushi
Inuyasha copyright by Rumiko Takahashi. I don't own it. And all that legal copyright mumbo-jumbo.
Chapter 2: Monstrous Heart
"We're broadcasting live from downtown Tokyo, where reports are that two Youkai have appeared in the middle of the city and are fighting." The TV reporter's broadcast ran throughout the Higurashi household.
"Kagome!" Her mother exclaimed.
Kagome and her friends were running away from the battle. Inuyasha, while not using his special attacks, was swinging his sword against Hakudoushi's spear. Inuyasha was noticeably upset of being limited like this. But with so many people around, he couldn't risk using Tetsusaiga's powers for fear of seriously injuring (or killing) a poor human.
"Your sentimentality holds you back!" Hakudoushi cried out as he managed to swing his spear and force the Tetsusaiga from out of Inuyasha's hand.
"Damn." Inuyasha muttered.
WHOOSH! An arrow nails Hakudoushi's chest and a lot of his body disintegrates. Inuyasha looks and sees Kagome, with her bow. Her friends are standing behind her. "I needed to get this." Kagome remarks.
Hakudoushi immediately regenerates his body and outfit. "You can not strike me down. In the end, you are just a pale shadow of Kikyou. You do not possess even a fraction of her power." Hakudoushi remarks.
"YOU DON'T HAVE THE RIGHT TO EVEN MENTION HER NAME!!!" Inuyasha screams out, attacking Hakudoushi with his claws.
Hakudoushi regenerates again and moves to the ground to pick up his spear as Inuyasha picks up the Tetsusaiga. Kagome readies another arrow. "Ka..go...me..." Her friends timidly say.
"Don't worry, we can handle this." Kagome responds.
Hakudoushi soon realizes something. "But you can't handle this. That's why you ran back to your world after our last encounter. Kikyou. You're afraid of her. As long as Inuyasha holds Kikyou in his heart, you will always be..." Hakudoushi remarks.
"SHUT UP!!!" Kagome interrupts with her scream.
Inuyasha takes another swing at Hakudoushi with his sword and Kagome fires another arrow. Hakudoushi puts up his barrier. Neither attack gets through. Hakudoushi holds out the Shikon no Tama. "Thanks to this, my power has grown to such a level that you can't defeat my barrier." The Youkai with the body of a boy explains.
Inuyasha sees the crowds and the cameras. "Damn, too many people." Inuyasha curses out.
Hakudoushi flies down to Kagome's side. He drops his barrier and grabs her arms. An eerie aura envelops his body. "YOU CAN'T RESIST! THE HATRED STILL BURNS WITHIN YOUR SOUL! YOUR HATRED OF KIKYOU! YOUR HATRED OF INUYASHA! YOUR HEART IS FULL OF HATE!" Hakudoushi commands.
"NNNOO!!" Kagome screams out.
"KAGOME!" Inuyasha and her friends scream out.
"Her soul is in my hands." Hakudoushi states. The eerie aura that covers his body has extended itself over Kagome's body.
