Wind, Water, and Earth 6
Three against three
Disclaimer: I don't own Inu Yasha or the characters from the show. I own this story idea, the legend, the forest, the sisters, and the brothers though so hands off!
Last time
Kagome sighed and sat down waiting for her friends to wake up from their naps. She didn't notice the purple mist that slowly drifted towards her and she didn't notice the three men who stepped into the clearing after she had fallen down unconscious just like her friends.
This time.
The three sisters were all sitting happily around their cliff secure in the knowledge that the intruders on their domain would be leaving soon enough. They were all enjoying a comfortable silence when they all got a collective shiver down their spines. Looking to the clearing where the travelers were they noticed the mist slowly leaving the clearing and their guests laying unconscious. Now this confused the Tori and Tsuyu and angered Nikki. She summoned her wolves and all three were brought down to the edges of the clearing just in time to see the three men step into it. The three gasped silently upon seeing the men. One had bright red hair and blood red eyes and was wearing clothes similar to Inu Yasha except his were black and red. The next had pointed yellow hair that seemed to glow. He wore clothing similar to Sesshomaru except his was all white and the same brilliant yellow as his hair. The final man has grey and black hair with cloudy eyes. He wore clothes similar to Miroku but in blacks and greys. The sisters looked at each other knowing that these were the three brothers from the plains a while away from their forest. They had run ins with each other before each side leaving with horrible wounds but the worst ones would be dealt to the sisters. Even though their powers were even the brothers were simply better fighters than the sisters ever could be. Not to mention that the brothers all had elemental powers that were the sisters weaknesses.
The sisters watched as the brothers went over to the travelers and looked them over. Sometimes rolling one person over to check out their back. They all stopped around Kagome though and starred at her in curiosity. Shrugging the brothers' left here there and the sisters' keen hearing could pick up something along the lines of too weird to be good. So the brothers went over to Sango and picked her up and left the clearing. The sisters followed them to the edge of the forest and watched as the brothers took Sango away to their plains. Rushing back to the clearing they saw the Inu Yasha group waking up.
"Oh you must hurry and get up! The plains brothers have taken your friend!" Tori shouted as she rushed into the clearing to help them all up.
"They must have used Toshiro to knock you all out." Tsuyu explained as she helped Miroku to his feet. Suddenly she went stock-still and her face became a dangerous glare. Miroku was knocked clear across the clearing and was unconscious again before her knew what hit him. Tsuyu glare at him her hands balled into fists. Inu Yasha, Kagome, and Shippo just sighed. That was when they noticed that Sango wasn't there.
"Where's Sango?" Kagome yelled looking around frantically.
"We already told you." Nikki said sighing and rubbing her temples. "The plains brothers took her. You have to go and rescue her." Nikki was practically shouting now very angered at the deaf intruders of her forest.
"Who are these plains brothers?" Miroku spoke up for the first time since meeting the sisters.
"They are our enemies, they live on a plain just south of our forest, the want our forest for themselves and so they try everything in their power to get it. Normally the just attack us hoping to kill us and get the forest that way. But what they don't understand is that if we die so does this forest. And so we all waste most of our powers battling each other yearly. They are like us elements of nature. Although their powers are greatly different from ours, they are fire, lightning, and storm. We are all rather evenly matched as our powers cancel each other out but they know how to fight properly while we don't. So normally we end up coming back to our forest greatly injured and licking our wounds. Not that we don't give them their fair share of wounds. We just end up being in worse shape than they are." Nikki explained all of this while looking out through the forest and towards the plains.
"I don't know why they would take your friend, normally they just come after us." Tsuyu tried to explain why they would have Sango but couldn't figure it out. Tori was just as stumped and shrugged her shoulders when Tsuyu looked over at her. Kirara was mewing and looking around for her lost owner looking very sad indeed. Shippo went over to her and picked her up and hugged her tight. (Kinda like how Kagome was holding Buyo in the first episode.) Kagome kneeled down beside the two and pulled them both into her arms.
"Hey it's ok guys, we'll get Sango back!" Kagome stood up and had those little flames behind her looking righteous. This made everyone but Shippo and Kirara, who Kagome had a good hold on, take a few steps back away from her. Kagome just turned in the direction of south and started marching. Everyone just sighed and followed Kagome. Inu Yasha bent down to pick up her bike before following the rest of the group. Miroku was in the back of the group looking off into space. In his mind he was thinking of Sango and he felt like he was being eaten alive with worry for her.
'That's it. If we get out of this alive I'm telling her how I feel." Miroku nodded to himself at this thought before looking up ahead of them. ' Please Sango, stay safe until I can rescue you.' He closed his eyes and wished that she could hear his thoughts.
Author's note Weeeee! Another chappy. All right I think that three is enough for one day. So while all of you have had something nice to read now I think it's my turn. So go ahead and review and tell me what you think.
