Suspenseful, I think Red Eyes has been in the last chapter. Though I
felt I could do a lot better. But...that's gonna be saved for the repost,
which I'll work on after I get this one done. I'm still looking for some
Yami art from a talented reviewer. Just still waiting, I am. But not for
you, because Red Eyes chapter seven has come!
************************************************************************
Kirara pulled Kagome back to safety as the two titans of fear clashed their claws. Yami's claws were a lot more skilled than those of Inuyasha's own. But Inuyasha was full of determination to win, no matter the cost. Their claws met, acting like short swords. Yami looked with disgust in his face as Inuyasha growled at the vampire/demon. This demon was the only one foolish enough to challenge him to a death-duel. Was he planning on winning? Well, it would be a good sport to compete in.
Yami used a knee to jab into Inuyasha's soft belly, knocking him over. Gasping for breath, the full demon kicked Yami away with both feet as Yami attempted to bite down on his neck. The Lord Vampire flew into a tree, stunned on impact. He was stronger than he had expected. Injured from Kyu's fight already, Yami's rage became more fiery and fierce as he looked to the laughing Inuyasha. No one made a fool out of him!
Embarrassed and enraged, Yami took to the sky and swooped down at Inuyasha, using long claws to hack away at the body, and then swooped back upwards to prepare for another onslaught. Inuyasha's body was tough to the core, and the battle's process was indeed slow. As Yami swooped back down for a fourth time, Inuyasha no longer guarded his weak points. Instead, he jumped onto the vampire's back, biting down on the wing nearest to him. A spear of pain ripped through Yami's back, causing him to fly out of control. Yami slashed at his back, trying to remove the gnawing demon. They both came down to the ground with a bone-crunching snap.
"NO!!" Kagome yelled as she tried again to reach to fight, only to be stopped by Miroku. Kagome turned to her monk friend enraged and frustrated. She beat on his chest before sobbing into his robes. Miroku, alarmed by the sudden outburst, tried to quiet her loud sobbing, before one of the combatants took notice.
He was too late.
As Yami threw Inuyasha into a tree, he looked over to where he heard sobbing. The sound of grieving. Music to sooth the damned indeed. Miroku looked into Yami's eyes, searching for the friend Kagome needed. All he found was Hell. The vampire/demon drooled as he took slow steps towards the two. Miroku put his staff out in front, hoping for some protection in case of attack. Kagome's terror and sadness became present to Yami as he approached even closer. Yes, a fine night to kill.
"Yami! Stop before you kill someone! Stop for Kagome! Stop!" Miroku called out, hoping to find what was left of the mellow friend he had. Yami's ears were deaf as he began to charge Miroku. But before he could reach him, a red blur tackled Yami to the ground, almost pinning him.
It was Inuyasha!
But still, both Yami and Inuyasha were consumed by blood-lust as they continued to slash and hack away at each others bodies. Inuyasha's grace began to fail him as he swooned around in a drunken state from blood loss. Yami's wings were mangled and torn almost away from him body. If they kept fighting, neither would last long. Yami however, was more coordinated with his balance, so he took the upper hand of the fight. Inuyasha's worn body was thrown around like a rag doll as Yami's cruel, maniacal games began to come forth. He tried to stretch the full demon's body to twice the size it was. He twisted his arm in and out of place. He bashed his ribs in an attempt to find his heart. Inuyasha would die soon.
As the vampire/demon was about to give the final blow, an enchanted arrow flew by him and pierced his tender wings, rooting him to the ground. Kagome stood with a bow and arrow aimed at his heart, her hand quivering and tears dribbling down her face. Yami growled and tried to move. The new arrow struck him arm and held it fast to a tree. He howled as the bone was pierced. The arrow's magic washed through his body, blurring his vision and darkening his world. He gave out a final cry as his body and mind went numb.
After a few moments of silence and fear, Sango and Shippo started forward, each one carrying a sword. They replaced them both back to their rightful owners, sealing their suspicions about another transformation. Luckily, both were still breathing, meaning that there had been no casualties. Miroku dropped his perverted side to go and comfort Kagome, who was still in tears. The four she-vampires took it on themselves to wash and dress the two's wounds. Inuyasha stirred in his sleep, but did not wake up. Yami however, tossed in his rest and whimpered as if he was being struck. That was a bad omen.
*~*~*~*~*
Monster. Traitor. Animal. The jeers of Yami's memories came to his dream. The vampire/demon awoke in a white room, no telling of where the ceiling ended or the floor began. Stooping over him was the red-eyed monster that had killed Kyu. Yami yelped in surprise and backed away, only allowing the darker part of his soul to laugh at him.
"What's the matter? Don't like who I am?" the dark Yami sneered, laughing at Yami's sudden fear.
"Or more appropriately, who we are...yes, that's the better term. Yami, I didn't know if I was going to ever kill again." Again, the dark Yami's laugh echoed in the empty white room.
"Damn you!"
Yami's darker half gave a false pout. "Aw, you hurt my little feelings. You can't keep me locked inside you forever; for I am a part of you. I don't see why you do it."
Yami looked to the grinning maniacal darker half. "I am not a killer. You are not a part of me." Yami's voice was cold.
"Not a killer!? I could feel your enjoyment when I devoured Kyu! I could sense your blood boiling with excitement as I attacked this...Inuyasha. Come now, you are a predator, and you can't change that!"
"Yes I can! Leave me alone!"
"Oh yes, you'd love for me to just leave, wouldn't you? Then you'd be happy. Well guess what..." The dark Yami leaned over and whispered in Yami's ear. "...You can't change the fact that you're one of the damned."
Yami swiped his claws at his dark half, but missed him entirely.
"Oh no! I got you angry...oh what ever shall I do?" The dark Yami faked fainting, only to jump up and twist the room to Kagome's bedroom. Kagome lay on her bed, tied up.
Yami's eyes turned away. His voice grew venomous. "Get out of my head..."
"And miss this? Not a chance." The dark Yami walked over to Kagome, humming insanely. "Well, well, well, she looks nice and ripe...what do you think, dear Yami?"
Yami clamped his hands over his ears and closed his eyes shut, trying to block his darker half's voice. It didn't work.
"Let's see...shall I taste her blood or shall I have some fun before feeding? Oh, these awful dilemmas. Tell me Yami, who is this? I've seen her many times in your dreams, but never...quite this lovely. You must share her with me." He laughed again and pinned her body to the bed. Yami's anger began to rise.
"Oh come now, don't keep secrets from little me. She's lovely...I can't wait to taste her..." He ran a clawed finger down her cheek before nicking her neck. He placed his mouth over the cut, sucking the blood.
"It's just a dream, just a dream. That's not Kagome..." Yami's voice was quiet, almost a whisper. His darker half caught his words.
"Kagome, you say? You mean the vixen who pinned me with her two arrows? Oh, now bedding with the enemy...quite the naughty one we are!"
"Shut up! I bed with no one!"
"Oh now, I know you want to. Come, taste her blood, it's like silk. She doesn't mind, now do you?" Kagome said nothing as the dark Yami forced her to look in his eyes before placing his mouth back on her neck, continuing to feed. Yami charged his dark self, but again missed as he jumped away.
"So you do want to play the hero, always out saving damsels and slaying demons." His tone became harsh. "Those days are behind you now. Now you're the bad guy, torturing the lovelies. Don't you get it? You can't face the fact that you're a vampire now, not a mortal!"
Yami again charged him, and again missed.
"You insist on being the hero? Fine. I like to be the one to make you suffer." He put Kagome in front of himself, his dangerous claws tracing her figure. With a quick flick of his wrist, off came a finger, it dripping down with the blood as it hit the floor. Yami kept after his dark half, but it kept going. Finally, she had no left hand.
"Keep trying to save her Yami. Just keep trying. It's only a matter of seconds before I do this!" Dark Yami's hands bolted up to each side of Kagome's head. With a twist, the head was severed. Yami could not take it anymore, as he sank down to his knees, bent on crying. His darker half snorted in disgust.
"Oh come now you crybaby! You forget it's your mind!" He snapped his fingers and the room was once again all white. Yami, embarrassed and angered, once again charged at his dark half, only to be thrown down to the ground. The dark Yami put his foot on Yami's back, holding him there.
"See my point? You're no hero; you're not going to be saved from your fate. And remember...once I escape, this Kagome is mine to play with." His other foot smashed down on Yami's head, ending the dream.
*~*~*~*~*
Yami bolted up, waking from his nightmare. His body ached and his wings burned with pain, but still he got up. He looked around to find he was in a hut. A familiar hut. The hut that Inuyasha would be in on the new moon! Kagome walked in as Yami pushed his body to its limits.
"No!" She ran and placed a gentle hand on his back, away from any wounds. "No Yami, you need rest. Lay down now."
Yami did as she instructed, but dared not to look at her. His darker side was after her. His darker side lusted for her. But most of all, his darker side wanted to show Yami just how powerful he was.
And he was right. ************************************************************************
A dark chapter to show Yami's darkest secret. Now that you have lucky chapter seven, why don't you review? It's so much that I slave over a freezing computer, numbing my butt just to give you chapters...and not a word of thanks?? WAA!!
Yami: Since when did I have schizophrenia?
Dark Yami: Since she made me. *eats a stick of Pocky*
Me: Ooh! Ooh! I want some, mister evil guy! *hold out hands*
Dark Yami: *shakes empty box and places last stick of Pocky in mouth* Sorry, all out.
Me: i_i I'll never talk to you again! WAAA!!!
