Chapter 10: The Survivors

"It Looks like the demons have already gotten here," Miroku murmured, "I bet they will destroy anything in their path..."

"So they must be in a hurry, I mean if they ARE the demons who took Kagome, to get her somewhere!" Shippo was completely bedazzled by this sight, and when he caught Inuyasha's eye, he stayed quiet.

"Shippo, we shouldn't talk about those damn demons aloud." Inuyasha too was bedazzled, but he knew they needed to keep quiet, there was no need to get the entire countryside all riled up.

"Yes Inuyasha." Shippo murmured as quietly as possible.

"I can't hear you Shippo, what was that?" Inuyasha was teasing, but Shippo glared at him, jumped on his shoulder, and used both of his small fists to slam Inuyasha on the head. "OWW DAMMIT!"

"Hey look you two," Miroku, while Inuyasha and Shippo were fighting, was looking around for any signs of life, "There are people over there, maybe we can ask for the leader of this 'village'."

They all walked up the group of people, and when the people saw them, one of them stood. 'Good, must be the leader.' Miroku thought to himself.

"Hello. I am Onami, The new leader of this village. As you can see, most of our huts were destroyed, and while fighting the demons who came in, our old leader, Katamo, died." The new leader looked sad, and tired as well.

"We are very sorry about your loss," Miroku decided that if Inuyasha started talking, there would be trouble, "The demons who came and destroyed your village, what did they look like?"

Onami closed his eyes for a second, then opend them and said, "They were really large, with red eyes, they were all gray colored, except for their leader, he was twice as big, and pure black except for his red eyes. Oh yeah, and he was carrying a girl. She had no voice, and I think the demon who was carrying her made her that way. She also was wearing white and green clothing."

"Kagome." Inuyasha whispered. "Which way were they headed?"

"That way..." Onami pointed towards the mountain, "But be careful," Then he eyed Inuyasha's ears, claws, and teeth, and said, "But it looks like you may be able to handle them easily, hanyou."

Inuyasha started walking towards the mountain, he was mad that the demons took Kagome, and her voice. He was also mad at the fact that the villages leader had been so rude to point out he WAS in fact, a hanyou. 'Forget it, if those two are going to be so slow, I will take matters into my own hands.' He thought, but then looked behind him to see he was out of the village. Suddenly, there was a scent of a demon, and it was coming close. He unsheathed his Tetsusaiga, and stood there, waiting.
