Dark Sides and True Feelings
A/N: Here is chapter 5. I hope you like it! Oh yeah, ofudas are those paper things that Miroku throw at demons to harm or kill them.
Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha.
Chapter 5
Miroku was flying towards the unconscious Inuyasha and Kagome with his claws ready to strike. He was only a few feet away when Kirara growled at him deeply. She jumped in front of Kagome and Inuyasha, ready to protect them with her life.
Miroku stopped a few feet in front of her and looked a little amused.
"Kitten, get out of my way so I can kill those worthless creatures." Growled Miroku.
To this, Kirara growled and prepared to attack him.
"So, you want to die first then? Fine by me." Said Miroku. He raised his claws and slashed at Kirara. Kirara dodged the attack gracefully and ran to tackle Miroku to the ground. Seeing in what the cat demon was about to do, Miroku got in a fighting stance to attack. Kirara went head first into Miroku's stomach with all of her strength.
Completely unfazed by the charge, Miroku raised his claws.
"DIE YOU WEAK DEMON CAT!" shouted Miroku and his claws stared to have a black glow around them. He reached down, grabbed Kirara's side tightly, and shot a black blast right into her side. Kirara went flying through the air and landed next to Sango's Hiraikotsu. The demon cat reverted back to her small form with black smoke coming from her.
Miroku smiled in satisfaction and smirked. He then turned to Inuyasha and Kagome and raised his claws up.
Sango gasped in terror when she saw Kirara hit like that. Seeing that Kagome and Inuyasha were about to die, she ran to where her Hiraikotsu was and dropped her sword. She checked to make sure Kirara was alive and she was. Sango then threw her Hiraikotsu as hard as she could at Miroku. 'I hope that knocks him out for now, I can't win a fight against him'
Sherra was watching all of this completely amused. He wanted to see all of them suffer by their own friend, so he waited. 'When that monk kills his friends off, I'll get the Shikon shards and teleport out of here.'
Miroku had another black glow around his claws and raised them above his head. 'This attack will end their pitiful lives. Then they will go to hell together.' He thought evilly.
"DIE YOU PATHETIC FOOLS AND GO TO HEL---"Miroku stopped yelling because a giant boomerang hit him square into his back. He started to hack loudly and breathing harshly for air.
"YOU WITCH! I'LL KILL YOU PAINFULLY FOR THAT!!!" wheezed Miroku. He then flew where Sango was standing. She couldn't move because she was too scared to do anything.
Miroku grabbed her chin and forcefully made her look into his eyes. Sango gasped when she saw Miroku's eyes. The once soft, caring, violet eyes were replaced with a black color and red pupils. However the color wasn't what she was afraid of the most, the eyes she was looking into right now were filled with evil and hatred and held no other emotion besides that.
Miroku smiled-an insane smile-that was no longer full of happiness, but one of malice. Sango gasped from how much he changed. She can see nothing left of the Miroku she once knew. The only things similar between his dark side and normal side were his body, but even that was altered due to the spell. There is nothing caring or good about the side she is seeing now. This was not the monk that groped her everyday and slapped silly everyday.
Most of all, this was not the monk she fell in love with.
"What are you staring at wench?" Miroku asked. "I know that you are afraid of me, so don't bother pretending to be brave. You disgusting scent is filled with fear."
Sango gasped and tried not to cry. This was worst then any of her nightmares combined. Worse then seeing Kohaku or her family dying. Worse then being killed by Naraku. At least then, she wouldn't be killed by the one she cared and loved the most.
"It's time to end your life, but don't worry, you'll be seeing your friends very soon." Said Miroku. He then let go of her chin and caught her neck with one hand. He raised her into the air and tightened his hold on her neck. Sango could still breathe, but his claws and hold were very painful to her neck.
"Houshi-sama.............."
Miroku raised an eyebrow and said, "I don't know what you are saying wench, but you are getting on my nerves."
"Please don't kill us, I know that somewhere inside you is still the same houshi that I traveled and had fun with..............."
"QUIET WOMEN! I DO NOT WANT TO HEAR YOUR CRY FOR MERCY!" With that he squeezed her neck tighter, cutting off her sir supply.
'Please wake up from the spell Houshi-sama, don't do this. Somewhere in that mess of evil, is the houshi that I couldn't live without.' Tears began to spring from her eyes due to the pain from her physical and emotional wounds. A few tears rolled down her eyes and past her cheeks.
Miroku's eyes widened in what he saw. 'For some reason, something inside me is telling me not to kill her. An emotion that is foreign to me. Is it love?' Miroku shook his head but he let go of Sango and she fell to the ground. Sango began gasping for air and looked up at Miroku. For a split second, she saw his eyes soften a bit but it reverted back to hatred.
Not wasting any time, she got one of Miroku's ofudas that lay next to her sword, and placed it on Miroku's forehead. She then got his staff and placed it against the oufda. Not enough to really harm his forehead, but enough so the staff can work with the oufda to create a holy attack.
This caused a bright blue light shine to come from the oufda and sting Miroku's forehead. Miroku yelled in pain and tried to rip the oufda from his head.
"YOU BITC-"Miroku was cut off as the oufda worked its final powers on him. Miroku growled and fell to his knees, while one of his clawed hands gripping his forehead tightly.
Sango then put all off the remaining ofudas around Miroku in a circle. She then got his staff and struck it as hard as she could into one of them. The staff went through the paper and into the ground. This caused a holy barrier to surround Miroku in a circle. It was small, but it was big enough for Miroku to sit inside.
Sango reached down and put Kirara in her waistband. Sango then got her sword from the ground and prepared to attack just in case. She was breathing heavily from the battle.
Miroku, who was now recovered from the oufda, looked around him and saw that he was trapped inside a barrier. He rammed as hard as he could into it, but the barrier resisted and sent him flying back.
Miroku growled in annoyance and shouted, "Once I get out, I'll kill you without remorse or mercy!"
Sango said nothing and silently wished that the barrier will last until Inuyasha and Kagome wakes up.
Sango then glared at the demon that has caused all of her problems. She is beginning to hate him more than Naraku.
"You BASTARD!" she shouted. "Why did you do that Houshi-sama?"
Sherra looked amused and said, "Because I want to send all of you to hell and make your lives miserable."
"But why did you cast the spell on Houshi-sama and not me?"
"He so happened to use that void and so it was easier to cast the spell on him than you or that miko."
"I'll kill you!" she shouted and ran towards him as fast as she could.
"Humph, a simple sword can not kill me." Sherra said and began summoning a black ball. "Black Death!"
Sango gripped her sword tighter and ran straight towards the attack. 'I will not be defeated by that attack.'
"FOOLISH WOMAN! YOU WILL NOT LIVE AFTER THAT ATTACKS HIT YOU! JUST LOOK AT YOUR MIKO FRIEND OVER THERE! Sherra shouted.
Sango was now wishing that she hadn't run straight towards the attack. 'How can I be so stupid? No turning back though.'
"You shall die!" smirked Sherra.
"YOU'RE THE ONE THAT'S GOING TO DIE!" shouted a voice behind Sango. She was then tossed back roughly behind a familiar hanyou.
"Inuyasha?" Sango asked.
"No time to talk now, Bakuryuuha!" shouted Inuyasha. The big black ball was then consumed by a tremendous force and was shot back towards Sherra.
"Heh a pretty strong attack, but no match for my barrier." Sherra said and summoned a black barrier around him. The Bakuryuuha was absorbed into the barrier.
"I guess the attack was way too powerful to bounce back towards you." Mused Sherra.
Unknown to Sherra, Inuyasha was behind him with red Tetsusaiga in hand. Inuyasha shouted, "This will end your damn barrier!"
Inuyasha sliced through Sherra's barrier and into him. Sherra cursed loudly and jumped away from Inuyasha and Sango.
"Damn, that sword hurts a lot." Wheezed Sherra.
"Yeah and this will hurt you even more!" shouted two voices at once. Sherra looked behind him and saw Kagome, a few yards away, with an arrow already heading straight towards him. She had a bow in her hands from the attack still.
He then looked forward to see Inuyasha holding his sword and a Wound of the Wind heading towards him.
Unable to set his barrier and dodge the arrow, he got hit square on the back from the arrow. He was then unable to move due to the arrow's holy powers. He then watched as a Wound of the Wind headed straight towards him and a fast pace. The attack hit him and his beloved staff and an explosion occurred.
"Did we get him?" asked a tired Kagome.
"I don't know, we have to wait until the smoke disappears." Said Inuyasha
The smoke cleared and both people gasped. Sherra was bleeding badly and his wounds were great. His staff was cracked but not destroyed.
"I will not die from that attack." Sherra said simply. Then his wounds started to heal by themselves.
"HOW?!?!" Inuyasha and Kagome shouted at the same time. That was physically impossible. This was not good at all.
The wounds however stopped healing, and started to bleed heavily again.
"WHAT?" shouted Sherra. His wounds should be healing not tearing!
"It's simple really." Said a familiar voice.
"What did you do Sango-chan?" asked Kagome.
"Well, you see that black staff he carries around? It is where all of his power is in. Basically without his staff, he is nothing but a normal demon. However, he can't die if you destroyed his body. In order to kill him, you need to destroy the black sphere that is on top of his staff." explained Sango. She then held up the remains of the black sphere and staff. "I cut them up with my sword since they are pretty easy to break."
"How did you know my weakness?" asked a dying Sherra.
"I have heard of demons who put their power and soul into a weapon. I figured that you did that too since you never let go of that staff." Sango said. She then threw the remains of the weapon and sphere near Sherra's dying form.
"Keh, your human killing days are over. Wound of the Wind!" Inuyasha shouted. The blast was then shot at Sherra annihilating his whole body and weapon. Sherra screamed in agony and died. There was nothing left of him, not a single piece of him or the weapon.
Inuyasha, Kagome, and Sango all breathed a sigh of relief and gathered together.
"Good job Sango-chan" Kagome chirped.
"Yeah, we wouldn't have beaten him without your help." Inuyasha agreed.
"Thanks, same to you. How did you guys regain conscious?" Sango asked.
"Well, the Black Death only knocked me out for a short while. So when I woke up, I woke up Inuyasha. We barely had any strength left, but when we saw you charging at the blast, Inuyasha came to your rescue as I got my arrows ready." Explained Kagome.
"Yeah, and you know the rest." Said Inuyasha
"You used the last of your strength to save me?" Sango asked.
"Of course!" Kagome said. Inuyasha nodded in agreement.
"How are you now?" Sango asked.
"Well, we'll live but I can't fight anymore right know, nor can Inuyasha.
"Same goes to Kirara." Said Sango as she handed the demon to Kagome.
"She'll be fine." Kagome reassured.
"Yeah, and where's the bouzo?" asked Inuyasha gruffly.
Sango instantly froze up and tears almost began to sprout. They didn't though. She just pointed to where the barrier that held Miroku.
Inuyasha and Kagome both gasped and looked at each other worried. They all went to Miroku was at and looked in the barrier. There was only one remaining ofuda left and it was almost worn out. His staff was still stuck in the ground where Sango had put it. Miroku was asleep, but he still looked insane.
"The barrier will not last much longer." Sango stated.
"Sango-chan, did you set up the barrier?" asked Kagome softly. Sango nodded shortly.
"What the hell happened to him?" Inuyasha asked bluntly.
Sango swallowed and said, "Well, you know that spell that makes humans turn into demons? Sherra cast the spell on Houshi-sama when he was using the Wind Tunnel. The spell went inside his hand and he fell to the ground. He was in severe pain and he couldn't move at all. Then I got angry and went to attack Sherra. We stopped, because Houshi-sama stood up with a black aura slowing around him. He then transformed into a demon and he lost all of his sanity. There is nothing left of the friend we used to know. Only his looks are similar but even that was altered. He still is the same soul though. Houshi-sama tried to kill you both but Kirara protected you. She got hurt instead and I threw my Hiraikotsu at him. He stopped attacking you and went straight towards me. Then I set up the barrier and I went to attack Sherra. Then you guys woke up."
"Oh" Inuyasha and Kagome said at the same time.
"So what are we going to do when he wakes up?" Kagome asked.
"Well, we can't kill him, but we might have to knock him out for awhile. Then we go to Kaede's place and see what to do from there." Inuyasha wisely said.
Both girls looked at him strangely.
"WHAT?!?!" Inuyasha asked.
"Nothing." they both mumbled.
"The ofuda is going out, get ready." Sango said. Everyone got into fighting position and Kagome put Kirara in Inuyasha's jacket thing.
The barrier went out and Miroku awakened.
"Finally that barrier went out." Miroku said and got up.
Everyone tensed and prepared for the worst.
"So all of you guys awakened, no matter, I'll kill you all!" Miroku shouted and jumped towards Sango.
Sango's eyes widened and held up her sword to block. She was all shaky and couldn't defend herself.
"SANGO! DON'T JUST STAND THERE!" Inuyasha yelled and threw her where Kagome was standing.
Miroku looked mildly amused and prepared to strike Inuyasha. Inuyasha looked up to find Miroku staring at him with his claws raised. 'He looks completely insane, nothing left of the bouzo I knew'
Inuyasha raised his sword and prepared to attack. Miroku struck down but Inuyasha blocked it with Tetsusaiga.
"DAMMIT! SANP OUT OF IT MIROKU!" Inuyasha shouted. He got his sword and bashed the hilt as hard as he could behind Miroku's neck. 'Please knock him out'
Miroku fell to the ground coughing but he stood up again and looked at Inuyasha.
"DIE!" Miroku shouted and plunged both of his hands around Inuyasha's neck. Inuyasha dropped his sword and tried to claw at Miroku. Miroku was about to strangle him when an arrow hit him right on the back. The holy energy that came from it was large and he dropped Inuyasha.
Miroku looked back at Kagome who was breathing hard and had a forced look on her face. It looked like she had to use all of her will power to shoot that single arrow.
"You bitc-." Miroku didn't finish because he was worn out from the holy power that the arrow gave off. He fell face forward into the ground unconscious.
"You knocked him out Kagome-chan." Sango said amazed.
Inuyasha, who recovered from his attack, put Tetsusaiga back into its scabbard and went towards Kagome and Sango were standing.
"Well you knocked him unconscious, so let's go to Kaede's village right now before he wakes up." Inuyasha said. The girls agreed and went to gather their things. Kagome got her giant backpack and bow and arrows. Sango put her sword back into its scabbard and retrieved Hiraikotsu. She also got Miroku's staff and held it close to her. Inuyasha made sure Kirara was inside his jacket and put Miroku's sandals into his jacket too. He then pulled put the arrow and threw it aside. A small wound was on his back, but nothing too grave. Inuyasha put Miroku on his back and went towards the girls.
"You got everything?" he asked. Both girls nodded and they all ran as fast as they could to Kaede's village.

"Well you knocked him unconscious, so let's go to Kaede's village right now before he wakes up." Inuyasha said. The girls agreed and went to gather their things. Kagome got her giant backpack and bow and arrows. Sango put her sword back into its scabbard and retrieved Hiraikotsu. She also got Miroku's staff and held it close to her. Inuyasha made sure Kirara was inside his jacket and put Miroku's sandals into his jacket too. He then pulled put the arrow and threw it aside. A small wound was on his back, but nothing too grave. Inuyasha put Miroku on his back and went towards the girls.
"You got everything?" he asked. Both girls nodded and they all ran as fast as they could to Kaede's village.
A/N: I think that was the longest chapter I written so far. Make sure you review!
