The Wrath of a Demon
Chapter 10 – Starting Out Again
Sango was sitting up in a tree, staring into the blue sky, when she heard footsteps. She turned her head to see Inuyasha and Rin walking slowly back to hut. Sango was surprised that Inuyasha had come back and even more that he had a small smile on his face. Her eyes turned to Rin, who had begun to skip happily in front of the hanyou. Sango's face lightened up at the sight of the small human. Rin reminded her of Kagome, with her cheerfulness and positive thinking.
"Sango," Inuyasha called up to his fellow teammate. He hadn't talked all day, so it took her a while to let his voice sink in again.
"Hey! Sango," he called up to her once more. She jumped down from the tree and stood face-to-face with him.
"What is it," she questioned him.
"How is Miroku doing," he asked her. The hanyou wanted to know his other companion's condition as of right now. Sango's face fell slightly.
"Not that good. We both know that he sucked in a lot of poison into his wind tunnel, and Kaede is trying her hardest, but is hardly able to do anything to help him," she said softly. Inuyasha's eyes narrowed and he growled.
"Damn you Sesshoumaru......." He cursed his older brother. It was his entire fault that Kagome was gone and Miroku was practically dying. Inuyasha was determined to figure out this mystery and solve it before more innocent blood was shed.
"Inuyasha," Koga called for the half-demon as he walked up from behind him. Inuyasha turned, glaring at him. Koga was the last person that he wanted here right now.
"What do you want wolf-boy," he snapped at the wolf demon. Koga rolled his eyes and explained.
"I wish to come with you when you head out again," he stated quietly. Inuyasha looked at him strangely.
"Why," the wold demon never got along with him, so Inuyasha wanted to know the reason behind him now wishing to be his comrade.
"You act like you were the only person who cared for Kagome," Koga said with his eyes closed. Inuyasha was taken aback by this while Koga continued.
"Besides, I don't want any more deaths just as much as you do. The next thing we know, all humans will be gone, and Sesshoumaru will go after demons as well," he finished. Inuyasha's shock-stricken face turned into a smile, and he nodded, accepting the wold demon's proposal. Koga smiled back at him before turning and walking back towards the hut. Rin still skipped around eagerly, now humming various tunes that popped into her head.
"I want her to come also," Sango heard the hanyou say. She turned her head towards him.
"She........she reminds me of Kagome, and almost makes me forget about the pain that I have over her death," he stated, watching the small human. Sango smiled.
"Yes, bringing her would be smart. She reminds me of Kagome as well, and her cheerfulness will help along the way. And besides, she might be one of the few people that will be able to get through to Sesshoumaru. I mean......she did travel with him for some time, and he wasn't able to kill her when they traveled together. I believe that he has come to love her like a daughter," Sango explained her reasoning. Inuyasha closed his eyes.
"We should leave as soon as possible," he said, before turning and walking back into the fog. Sango watched him before she turned and walked into the hut to check on Miroku.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Sesshoumaru walked through the forest, still wondering how this curse had returned to him from so long ago. Soon, he stopped at the sight of a familiar place. A large castle showed itself in the distance. Sesshoumaru stared at it. It was where he had lived before his father met the human, before Inuyasha was born. He couldn't believe that it was still standing. Although it was covered in vines and certainly looked abandoned, Sesshoumaru was almost sure that this place would have been destroyed by some demons by now.
He walked in, and could remember the days when he lived here. Smiling a little, he walked down the large corridor and into the garden outside in the backyard. Looking around, he recalled the way it had looked before they left. All of the flowers blooming in the spring, and his mother's face always smiling. Sesshoumaru's face fell slightly at the memory of her.
The full youkai was just about to turn and leave, when something caught his eye. Sesshoumaru walked towards the big oak tree that sill stood in the middle of the garden. Looking closely, he noticed a large pendant embedded in it. It was a moon with circlets of diamonds surrounding it. It was a beautiful sight, but it had an aura around it that made Sesshoumaru uneasy. As he walked towards it, he felt an unbearable pain in him, and stepped back.
"What is this," he whispered to himself. The dog demon was unable to get near the pendant, and its aura became stronger every time he felt that pain in his chest again. He stared at it, and wondered if this pendant had any relevance to the curse that was bestowed upon him.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Around two days went by, and Inuyasha, Koga, Rin, Sango, Miroku, and Kilala had set out once again. Shippo had refused to come when they asked him, but they could all see why that was. Miroku was still a little sick with the poison, but he insisted that they set out and to not let him worry them. He sat upon the back of Kilala, for Sango had refused to let him walk on his own.
"Miroku, are you sure? You don't think it'll be alright to wait one more day," Sango asked him. She knew that she was being somewhat overprotective, but she just didn't want another one of her friends dead. Miroku sighed.
"Yes Sango, I'm sure. You wouldn't want more villages and children to be killed while I'm laying around waiting to fully recover right," he questioned. She nodded a little, but her solemn look remained the same. Inuyasha led them, with Rin at his side, smiling happily, and Koga trailed at the rear, for they needed the demon's keen scent and hearing to sort of keep watch for any people that might be attacking from the front or rear.
"Will you even be able to work that thing," Sango asked, while pointing at the staff of time, the staff that the fox demon Kyshi had said would be able to take them to the past and show them the key to stopping Sesshoumaru.
"You and I both know that I'm the only one here with enough spiritual power to even attempt the spell," he explained to her. She nodded and continued on in silence.
Soon, Inuyasha led them out of the forest and to the open field in which Kyshi said the spell had to be performed. The two demons were sickened from the smell of Kagome's blood, which still stained the ground. Miroku jumped off Kilala's back and took the staff out into the middle of the field. He positioned it into the ground and knelt down. The others watched as he prayed silently.
After around five minutes, the staff started to glow, and Miroku abruptly stood. The ground from underneath them started to shake, and the staff's aura became stronger. Inuyasha and his companions were then sweeped into a vortex. They were unable to see anything, and it seemed like everything around them was spinning.
They then found themselves crashing onto the ground. Sango looked up and gasped at the sight of the forest. Unlike it was father into the future, it was full of life and many colors. The bright green leaves on the trees were so unlike the darker ones that they were all used to.
"I guess it worked," she stated. They all stood and observed more of the new surroundings. It had worked. It was their first step to figuring this whole thing out.
