Chapter 6

"So, do you know how big it is from the scent Inuyasha?"

"What kind of stupid question is that?"

"I was just wondering."

The park was dark, but it was dimly lit by the lamps. There were couples walking and sitting, being together. They seemed oblivious to the threat of the nearby demon.

"Should we warn them?"

"I don't think they would listen. They'd probably think you were wacko and take you to the mental hospital." 

They wandered further into the park to find the demon hiding in the trees near a small pond. Kagome and Inuyasha went in for a closer look .The demon looked like a mutated cat with green fur and eyes which glowed orange, it was a couple more times larger than Buyo. The cat-like demon dove down from the tree to land in the lap of a couple. The cat let out a yowl and the love birds ran away. Before they could run away, the cat ate up the fear given off by them, and the couple fell to the ground.

"Hey, cat! You leave those humans alone. If you want a fight, fight with a formidable opponent, me." 

The cat demon slowly approached with it's fangs showing. Inuyasha also slowly approached with his claws in the air, ready to strike. They came to within one meter of each other and just stood there, staring. Several seconds passed, and the cat made the first move. It pounced past Inuyasha and ran into the bushes.

"Come back here you sorry excuse for a demon!!" Inuyasha yelled as he chased it through the park. "Kagome, you stay here 'till I get back, this shouldn't take long."

"Uh, huh. I'll be waiting, right here. All alone, in the dark."

"Alright Kagome, you can come, just don't get in the way. Okay?"

The two chased the cat demon once again around the park, frightening those individuals unfortunate enough to be in the area. Their fear came from the demon and Inuyasha's inhuman looks/abilities. None-the-less, their fear was devoured by the cat and they fell. Eventually the cat was cornered near the small pond where it was originally.

"There's no place to run now, so stand still while I destroy you."  

"Heh heh heh, you silly mutt. You can't defeat me!!"

The cat let out a super massive hair ball of from its mouth. Within the ball, it contained the fear from all the people the cat had eaten. It resembled more of the hairball than something scary (but then again giant hair balls can be scary). Inuyasha tried to dodge the wet hair ball, but was struck down with it. He started to howl into the moon as other peoples' worst fear came true, within his eyes. Kagome saw Inuyasha sprawled on the ground, violently twitching from his experience of the other people's fears. Kagome rushed over and started to shake him by the shoulders to reality.

"No, No No!! Get away from me!!"

"Inuyasha, it's me, Kagome. Wake up Inuyasha, you still have to fight. GET UP!!"

Seeing that this was getting her nowhere, Kagome stood Inuyasha against a tree and yelled the "SIT BOY!" command. Inuyasha went face first into the ground and as usual he struggled to get up. When he was finally up, his vision cleared a little and he saw Kagome's blurry image.

"Ka..go..me?" Inuyasha asked slowly, rubbing his eyes to clear them up some more. "It is you."

He slowly got up to once again do battle with the cat. This time, before the cat could unleash another hair ball Inuyasha ran up and struck the demon.

"IRON REAVER, SOUL SEALER!!"

The demon crumbled to pieces and the meat melted off the bones. Kagome was able to detect a Shikon jewel shard embedded within the bones of the cat.

"Why didn't you notice this before?"

Kagome walked to the bone and picked up the shard. "Look at how small it is, almost the size of a grain of sand. I guess it was so small, it was masked by the demon's aura, and I couldn't sense it. Inuyasha you should clean up, we'll go get something to eat afterwards."

Inuyasha did willingly clean himself this time by just jumping into the small pond and cleaning himself off.

Okay, you can probably tell, battle scenes are not my forte.
