Chapter three:
The Slaying of a Bunny [Demon] and a Fragment of the Sacred Jewel. YEAH!
A little further down the hill from where Kagome was talking to the colonel, Miroku and InuYasha were finally pulled apart by the soldiers who had been watching. They had wanted entertainment, not more bloodshed.
"I thought you guys were friends?" someone said.
InuYasha huffed at the comment, turning away from the soldiers and looking up the hill.
"No way!" he muttered through his teeth after seeing Kagome with Chamberlain.
He turned away from them as well and started wandered down the side of the hill. He finally took a seat under a tree, alone.
"Now, if only I could find that shard of the Shikon Jewel..."
"Excuse me?" a voice came from behind InuYasha.
He turned around and saw an old man with a cane hobbling down to the spot where he sat. InuYasha could sense something evil in the old man and put his hand on his Tetsusaiga as he stood up.
"Did I hear you say something of the Shikon Jewel?"
With narrowed eyes, InuYasha looked the old man over. There was definitely something wrong here. What was an old man doing on this battlefield?
"What? Have you become a mute, InuYasha?"
The old man started laughing hysterically as he slowly began to transform into a giant, horrific, and very dangerous...bunny rabbit? Once the transformation was complete, the rabbit twitched its nose and hopped around playfully for a few moments as a crowd of soldiers looked on, dumbfounded, from a distance.
"How'd he do that?" a soldier asked.
"He's a demon," InuYasha said.
He pulled the Tetsusaiga from its scabbard, and the soldiers watched, amazed as it transformed.
"Doesn't look like any demon I've ever seen," another replied as the bunny nibbled on some tree branches.
"Looks like you don't know too much about demons," Miroku said as he pushed his way through the group of soldiers followed by Kagome.
"There's a jewel shard in the demon's head!" Kagome shouted.
With her words, the innocent looking bunny turned to InuYasha and bared a set of very large fangs, two of which were sent hurdling toward the hanyou. He laughed, and sliced the fangs into nothingness as they came at him.
"Nice try."
A loud sound like thunder came from behind InuYasha. Kagome looked up and saw that several soldiers were loading and firing the cannons at the top of the hill. As the demon plowed through several trees and neared InuYasha, the cannon fire continued.
"InuYasha!" Kagome screamed as a cannonball was fired right at him.
InuYasha turned just in time to see Miroku jump in front of him, tear the prayer beads off his right hand and hold it up.
"Wind tunnel!" he yelled, as the hole in his hand sucked up the cannonball before it could explode.
Miroku fell to the ground. Something was wrong. Kagome rushed over to help him get out of the way.
"That's it!" InuYasha shouted as he turned once more toward the demon.
But the bunny rabbit had become distracted and was now on its hind legs, trying to snatch a bird from its nest high in one of the trees.
"Some demon," InuYasha sighed.
From further up the hill the soldiers began making a fuss. Looking over his shoulder, he saw Sesshomaru appear from within the crowd of humans. He was coming toward him.
"Hello, half-brother. Happy half-birthday!" Sesshomaru called as he neared InuYasha.
"What the hell are you doing here?"
"How could I forget my half-brother's half-birthday? I brought you a present! Open it! Open it!"
"I'm a little busy right now," InuYasha said as the bunny, attention redirected at InuYasha, took a leap at him.
"What a pretty sword. Why do you get to have all the fun toys?" Sesshomaru pouted.
As the rabbit was bearing down on InuYasha he took one swing and sliced the giant demon in half.
