Disclaimer: I'm sitting here in my 2 billion dollar house writing a new episode of Inuyasha...I wish!  No, if I wrote the show why would I bother writing a book?

Freaking Out

            I was so much of an outcast/ Now one ever liked me cause I wasn't ever wanted/ I was so different from the rest of them all/  F***ed up on the drugs from all the speed/ And I never got no sleep/ Cause I kept on trippin over what they said/ And everything that my mom said made me mad/ And everything my dad said made me sad…

Chapter 8

Angel standing by

Kagome sits up and smiles.  Inuyasha opens his mouth to speak.  His mind knew what to say but his mouth wasn't allowing it.

"So this is where you hide out little brother."  A deep voice snorts.  Inuyasha turns toward the voice fearing what he would see.  There, standing beside the open window was his older brother, Sesshomaru.  Kagome crawls to the corner in shock, the fear in her eyes immeasurable.  Inuyasha stands up to face his brother, a scowl on his face.

"What are you doing here?"  He growls.  Sesshomaru grins looking out the window.  Inuyasha could tell he had something up his sleeve.

"Rin, go along now.  You can go play, just listen for me when I call."  Sesshomaru jumps out the window, almost teasing Inuyasha to follow, and he of course does. Kagome runs to the window to watch the two…she was sure this would result in one big fight.

"SESSHOMARU!" Inuyasha calls angrily while menacingly pulling his sword out of its sheath.  Sesshomaru calmly stands in front of him, his eyes slightly closed in a strange meditation…or so it seemed.  This was the same for every battle, the raged hanyou and the laid-back youkai. Strange as it seemed, it was the norm. 

Kagome feared what would happen, cops would think it was a prank if someone called them on it, but things like this didn't happen everyday in her time. She suddenly thought to grab her bow, just in case.  Then she returned back to her place in the window.

"What, you little pest?" Sesshomaru questioned while cracking his knuckles and continually standing calmly.  Inuyasha growls angrily towards him.

"Why are you here?"  He instantly charges toward him holding the Tetsusaiga to his side.  He goes to swipe the overly calm youkai.  Sesshomaru jumps over it, not seeming like he thought about it.  Inuyasha angrily tries again to hit the man's legs.  Again Sesshomaru seems to float over it.

Inuyasha then held the Tetsusaiga up over his head, trying to drop it onto of the agile demon.  Sesshomaru easily grabbed Inuyasha's wrist throwing the sword of off its aim.  He calmly allows the poison to burn through Inuyasha's skin.  Inuyasha though doesn't allow this; he grabs the sword with the other hand swinging it toward Sesshomaru.  This caused the unsuspecting youkai to jump back releasing Inuyasha's wrist. 

Inuyasha looks down at his wrist growling.  He grabs the Tetsusaiga with two hands again trying to slice open the unruffled demon.  Sesshomaru finally makes his first move; he seems to fly forward with poison surrounding his hand.  Inuyasha hadn't expected such a move, so he carefully jumps out of the way.  Sesshomaru barely cut him, but what he cut was bloody and sore.  Inuyasha rubbed his arm, the spot that Sesshomaru had hit.

Sesshomaru left no time for Inuyasha to attack he pulls out the Tokijin and holds it out.  He assumed that the sword's pressure would be strong enough for his little brother…it was able to kill weaker enemies after all.  The single-minded Inuyasha continued to charge, against what that tiny voice in the back of his head was telling him.  He never mined that voice…it was too rational. 

When blood began to spurt out of tiny cuts all over his chest, that tiny voice in the back of Inuyasha's mind laughed at him, saying… "I told you so!"  Inuyasha became angry, there had to be a way to knock the Tokijin away… Just then one of Kagome's arrow's flew over his head and knocked the demon blade away.  Inuyasha looked up at her and smiled.

Inuyasha took advantage of the moment.  He charged, swiping at Sesshomaru's knees. He nearly hit them, but Sesshomaru dodged at the last second, jumping over Inuyasha carelessly.  Sesshomaru lands on his feet perfectly, just as he always did.  Inuyasha turns around to attack him but is thrown away by Sesshomaru's attack called, Nakuacallu.

Angrily, Inuyasha stands up.  He grabs Tetsusaiga and throws it over his shoulder, then growls…

"Kaze no Kizu!" He screams, while trying hard to hurt his brother for everything he's done to him in the past.  Sesshomaru saw it coming and tried to dodge it.  He barely made it out with his right foot,  it was scratched pretty deep, but it was ok for now.  Sesshomaru stands there for a second, trying to put together a strategy.

Inuyasha stands still for a moment catching his breath and trying to figure out what Sesshomaru was plotting.  Strategies were too tiring to him.  Just 1) fight 2) kill 3) win.  That was all he needed to plan.

Sesshomaru looked around.  A foot behind Inuyasha was the Tokijin, but how would he get there without Inuyasha realizing what he was doing?  After a few moments, he had a plan.  He only hoped that Inuyasha hadn't smartened up since the last time they met.  Suddenly, he charges Inuyasha, extending his hand as much as he could.  As he flew Inuyasha waited there for him to come to him.

Sesshomaru finally reaches his target and just as he had planned, he reached the Tokijin.  His hand had anyway, Inuyasha had punched the rest of him down.  Soon, Sesshomaru jumped back up holding the Tokijin.  Inuyasha didn't realize what happened.  Kagome had known that was what Sesshomaru had planned.  Now she prepared her bow again, Inuyasha would need her help to knock the sword away.

Noticing what Kagome had planned, Sesshomaru planned to jump up and knock her unconscious.  She was the reason he had lost the Tokijin in the first place.  He quickly jumps up to the window.  Inuyasha had lost sight of Sesshomaru, but at hearing Kagome's scream he instantly looked up to the window.

His eyes grew wide with fear, Sesshomaru was up there!!  Kagome wasn't trained well enough to defend herself against him!  So he jumps up to Sesshomaru.  This makes Sesshomaru's mission impossible.  Now Inuyasha was next to him, ready to kill if he tried to hurt her.  Almost as if by accident, Sesshomaru knocked Inuyasha out of the window.

As he fell from the two-story window, the Tetsusaiga fell out of his grip and stuck into the sacred tree some ways away.  A loud thud came to Kagome's ears as Inuyasha fell to the ground.  She looked down to see him sprawled across the ground painfully.  He was trying hard to get up.  As she watched him, something shinny caught her eye…

It was the Tetsusaiga in the Sacred Tree!  Which probably meant that things would get even fiercer soon.  She pushed Sesshomaru out of her window then slammed it shut.  She had to get the Tetsusaiga before Inuyasha transformed into a demon again.

Meanwhile Inuyasha felt the youkai blood throbbing and trying hard to take control.  As he crawled to his knees his eyes flashed red, then gold, red, then gold, red…and finally they stayed that way.  Sesshomaru smelled the change, and with Inuyasha as enraged as he was, he could be in trouble if he didn't transform back soon.

Kagome stepped outside to a strange scent.  She looked over and saw what she feared.  Inuyasha had red eyes, scars on his cheeks and his claws had extended. 

He was a demon once again.
