The Wrath of a Demon
Chapter 12 – Freeing the Youkai
Inuyasha and the group ran quickly towards the abandoned castle. The hanyou could smell Sesshoumaru there, and he looked into the sky. Night did not fall upon them yet, his elder brother should be normal when they got there. So, hopefully they wouldn't have a problem getting this done.
"Guys, Sesshoumaru is at the castle," Inuyasha informed his companions. Rin, who was placed on his back, smiled a little. She had not seen her lord for a while, save the younger versions of him. She wished to talk and travel with him again.
"Rin misses Lord Sesshoumaru very very much," she explained. All she wanted was for them to help him, then she could leave again. Inuyasha and the others knew this. They knew that she had wished to return to Sesshoumaru. He was like a father to her.
"Don't worry Rin. You'll see him again real soon," Inuyasha told her. Her smile widened, and he also smiled. He never did like his brother, but after this whole experience, he may have more respect for him that ever before. Sango and Miroku, who were riding on Kilala's back, also had noticed the slight change in Inuyasha's attitude towards his half-brother. Who knows? Perhaps this was the time for Inuyasha to prove himself, and gain the acceptance of the older youkai.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Sesshoumaru was sitting in the backyard of the castle, facing the tree and the pendent. What could it be? It swore that he had seen it before, but he couldn't remember where. What importance did it have? He looked into the sky. Night was approaching, quickly. Sighing, he stood. Then, he recognized a scent, and its presence was getting stronger.
"Inuyasha," Sesshoumaru knew the scent to be his younger brother's, and with him, he smelt the others. When he noticed a particular scent, his eyes went wide.
"Rin....." Why was she with them? He didn't want to hurt her, and feared that he wouldn't be able to control himself, even for her, when he transformed. She was actually supposed to be his first victim. But, she was supposed to be miles away from him, with Jaken. He cursed at his cowardly demon servant. If he had stayed with Rin, then she wouldn't be with Inuyasha; she wouldn't be in danger. He then closed his eyes.
"Please keep her safe....." As he said this, he laid back on the grass. Perhaps if he was asleep, he wouldn't transform for the night. So, he just kept his eyes closed until he drifted off into a nice peaceful slumber.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Inuyasha and his companions barged into the castle and into the garden, only to find his brother sleeping across from the tree that held the cursed pendent. Rin jumped off the hanyou's back and ran to Sesshoumaru. She sat next to him, but did nothing else, for she didn't want to awake her lord from his undisturbed sleep.
"Alright let's just get this over with," Inuyasha said as he removed Tetsusaiga from its sheath, and it transformed. He was about to jump and strike the pendent when Miroku put a hand on his shoulder.
"Wait Inuyasha. You don't think that perhaps we're overlooking something. This seems too easy." Inuyasha turned to face him. He did make a good point, but what else could they do? It was the pendent that they had to destroy, there was no other source.
"Miroku, perhaps you're right, but we can't turn back now, we know what we have to destroy. Easy or not, that it the cause of this, the basis of this entire thing," he explained. Miroku then removed his hand from the hanyou's shoulder. Inuyasha then jumped up and slashed at the pendent.
"What the hell!?" He was thrown back by a blinding light right when he struck. The pendent remained unharmed, but more energy started to emanate from it, and Sesshoumaru was awoken when he felt a sharp pain in his heart.
"Lord Sesshoumaru! Are you okay," Rin asked the youkai, who didn't really hear her. All he heard was that voice inside his head. His vision was blurry, and he could not even remember where he was anymore. The voice and the pain got stronger and stronger. Rin watched him, trying her best to let her voice be heard, but to no avail.
"Rin! Come here!" She turned around when she heard Sango calling her name. Rin stood and ran to her, just as she ordered. Sango did not wish for anything to happen to the young girl, and wanted to keep her away from Sesshoumaru for now.
Inuyasha was desperately trying to figure out why it hadn't worked. He stood there, watching as his brother tried his hardest to keep himself from transforming, but to no avail. Once the sun had finished setting, Sesshoumaru's eyes changed color. Inuyasha had images flashing throughout his mind, when he saw the answer. The memory was when his father had defeated Sesshoumaru's mother before. It was so clear to him now.
"Tensegia....." He looked right at the sword that Sesshoumaru held in its sheath next to the Toukijin. That was it. He had to destroy the pendent with the true power of the Tensegia. But, how could he unleash its true power. Even so, how would he be able to get his hands on it, since Sesshoumaru, who was almost fully transformed, still wielded it?
"So, Inuyasha, you've finally figured it out." Inuyasha turned his head towards Sesshoumaru, who stood there, chuckling. "Well it doesn't matter, because you won't even be able to get your hands on the Tensegia, let alone unleash its ultimate power." Inuyasha then pointed the Tetsusaiga at his elder brother, and smirked arrogantly.
"Let's just see about that Sesshoumaru," he said, however, inside, he truly was not so sure. Sesshoumaru then charged at Inuyasha at full force. Inuyasha jumped into the air just in time to avoid Sesshoumaru's strike, who then jumped up after him, grabbing his leg and throwing him into the castle wall.
"Hiraikotsu!" Sango's voice rang through the air as her weapon smacked right into Sesshoumaru before he was able to strike Inuyasha again. The hanyou then charged at the youkai, who was still trying to fend off the Hiraikotsu. Inuyasha set his sights on the Wind Scar, which he was able to see clearly. Just as the weapon returned to Sango, Inuyasha slashed through the Wind Scar and Sesshoumaru, who was thrown back into the other side of the garden.
Inuyasha waited there for any response from the youkai, and was shocked when Sesshoumaru stood, laughing insanely. He seemed untouched. The hanyou just stood there, his determination and hopes crushed. How could he defeat an enemy who was invincible? He fell to the ground.
"Inuyasha. Don't give up!" He heard the voice of Kagome in his head, and could see her face in his mind. Gaining more confidence, he stood again. He would defeat this, for Kagome.
"I'm not done yet Sesshoumaru," he shouted, and Sesshoumaru charged at him again. He knew what he had to do. Just as Sesshoumaru ran towards him, he quickly moved to the side and grabbed Sesshoumaru's sash (a/n – ya know, that yellow thing that's around his waste, that) and tore it off, and Tensegia fell to the ground. Sesshoumaru's eyes widened, but he quickly turned around and slashed at Inuyasha before the hanyou could pick it up. He then grabbed Inuyasha's hair and threw him into the castle, and followed, leaving the Tensegia where it lay.
Rin watched as Inuyasha and he lord fought savagely, and she then took a look at the sword. Perhaps she could help too. The girl couldn't stand to see this anymore, and wanted no more than the old Sesshoumaru back. She ran into the battlefield, and picked up the Tensegia.
"Rin!" Sango and Miroku ran after her, but were then stopped when a blinding light flashed before them. The pendent was glowing brightly, but Rin unsheathed the sword and continued walking towards it. Sesshoumaru noticed this, and panicked. How could a small human girl wield the Tensegia? He sensed strong energy coming from her and the sword.
"It's can't be. It's impossible," he shouted furiously as he left Inuyasha and charged at Rin. Inuyasha's eyes widened as he got up, and charged after Sesshoumaru, though much slower then before.
"I'm not going to make it," he whispered as Sesshoumaru got closer and closer to the human girl. He held his claws up to slash at her, when she held up the Tensegia. It threw Sesshoumaru back with an immense force, and he was left there confused and angered.
"As long as the true Lord Sesshoumaru still lives, then his sword will protect Rin," she shouted. Sesshoumaru couldn't believe it. There was no way this human would be able to wield the Tensegia, or was there?
Rin held up the Tensegia to the pendent. The sword started to glow, and became encoded in a blinding white light, just like it had when they saw it in the past. All of their eyes widened. They all knew what this was.
"No, its impossible......" Sesshoumaru whispered to himself. He couldn't believe that this young girl was able to unleash the true power of Tensegia. However, Inuyasha knew perhaps why she was capable of accomplishing this. It was because of Sesshoumaru's love for the human, the only human that he ever did have feelings for. She may have been a human, but Inuyasha could tell that even for a small girl, her power was incredible.
"For Lord Sesshoumaru," she screamed as she slashed the Tensegia through the pendent, which glowed fiercely. A ray of light then came down from the bright moon, and hit Sesshoumaru, who screamed. The pendent shattered, and the youkai's eyes went from blue to gold. Inuyasha could see the spirit of Sesshoumaru's mother fading away from existence, until she was entirely gone. The light then closed, and Sesshoumaru fell to the floor, unconscious. Rin dropped the Tensegia, and ran towards him.
"Lord Sesshoumaru!" Inuyasha and the others also ran towards the fallen dog demon. Inuyasha looked at his brother. He was sleeping so peacefully, and by looking at him, one would think that this had never happened. He knelt down and looked at Rin. If it wasn't for her, then they would probably all be dead.
"Rin....thank you."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
BL: well, there you have it! They finally broke the curse and freed Sesshoumaru from his mother's mind control. YAYNESS!!
Sesshoumaru: I think you made Rin too 'warrior-like'.
BL: So? I like her as a warrior! XP
Sesshoumaru: *sighs*
BL: well, the next chapter will be the last. I hope that everyone reviews to me! Tell me how it was! *waves*
