Chapter 9: The Great Sesshomaru Battle Part Two
Question from God of Insanity: Is the Aliens-like wound on Sesshomaru's stomach healing or what? You really didn't specify.
Answer: No. It'll be there until next mating season, or Naraku is finally defeated for good. Until then, Naraku can bring offspring forth from Sesshomaru.
Sesshomaru lain on the floor, unmoving as Naraku unburied him and dragged him roughly from the pile of debris, throwing him on the floor and straddling his waist as the poison demon dipped his hand into the great wound on the inu youkai's stomach, as if reaching for some unseen object.
As Naraku reached up and under Sesshomaru's ribcage, the demon barely made a move, a cut on his temple bleeding freely and heavily. Naraku moved up and licked the wound of blood, then retracted his hand, looking at it. There was blood on it, but it was starting to thicken and coagulate, as if he had already died. Naraku looked at Sesshomaru's face as he flexed his hand idly; he wondered if this was all worth the effort. If Sesshomaru was dead, then where was the fun in punishing him?
Senayalayasha finished with his meal, a dead Senomololii on the ground whose body was stripped, blood mostly drained, head severed. He smirked as he stared down at it with his hating eyes, face drenched with the blood of his victim.
"I'll be on my way now…" he hissed, buttoning his black leather pants he had found lying around some distance from where he had rebooted. They really didn't cover much. (Luminaria: --Whistles--)
Senayalayasha turned his eyes skyward, then at the path before him. He could sense the fortress before him, only about ten miles, and no doubt Naraku would have the shield up. But if Naraku was doing something, then the shield would probably be pretty weak. He'd just have to try his luck.
Inuyasha was out walking in the woods for…whatever reason, when he sensed Naraku, and something similar to the poison youkai. But, hadn't someone destroyed him a long time ago? He must've resurrected somehow…
He put his hand on Tetsuseiga and ran off in the direction of his nose, thinking that Kagura or one of Naraku's other offspring might be around.
When he came into a clearing, he saw a dead body covered in blood and stripped of flesh, blood drained. He turned and saw a figure with long multi-colored hair, spikes down their arms, legs, and back, and a pair of black wings. The corpse smelled like Naraku, and the figure that was leaving the area smelled like his brother, two unknown scents, Naraku and… himself?
Inuyasha blinked. Oh ho, no way. He didn't remember having any kids at all. But, it had his dog ears and his silver hair…and his goddamn scent. He didn't recall Sesshomaru having any either.
"Hey, who are you? If you're one of Naraku's offspring why did you just kill your sibling?" Inuyasha asked. The figure's ears perked up and turned in his direction, as did the figure's body. It was a male, his body tall, lean and fit, his face hidden by long silver bangs, one of which having an emerald streak. Through one, he saw piercing golden eyes, similar to Sesshomaru's and three plum stripes on his cheeks and wrists. Blood stained the male's mouth and chin down his neck.
"I am Sesshomaru's fiancée; he got into a bit of trouble, so now I'm going to get him back from Naraku. I'm going to murder the bastard and make him wish he was never born. And I am NOT Naraku's offspring!" said the male heatedly.
"Fine, but what's your name?"
"Senayalayasha. Who might you be?"
"None of your beeswax, pal."
"I see, then I have no business with you. This very moment Naraku could be torturing Sesshomaru again. Now, if you excuse me, I have to go!" And with that, the youkai was gone. Inuyasha stared at the spot where the youkai was, and secretly thought him beautiful and wanted him for himself.
"Keh, what am I thinking? Sesshomaru has him, and that's that. Now, of to Naraku's fortress to destroy him once and for all!"
Naraku lifted Sesshomaru's lifeless legs and finished pulling off his jeweled hakama, smiling devilishly. He got up to get something when the window overlooking the deep ravine suddenly smashed in. He turned to see an outraged Senayalayasha standing on the broken glass with bare feet and Vampire's Bloodlust in hand.
"Why, what are you doing here?" asked Naraku, feigning surprise and looking really rather convincing.
"You know very well why I am here! Now, hand him over!"
Naraku laughed. "Not a chance. Besides, I think he's dead."
"You're lying. Sesshomaru needs a little more than a bonk on the head and something clawing its way out from his stomach to kill him."
"Then answer me this…Why is he lying on the floor motionless and his blood drying out?"
"Ever heard of a little something called exhaustion, Naraku? Dehydration?"
Naraku raised an eyebrow. "No, I cannot say that I have."
"Well, he's tired and he's as dry as a bone. No wonder he's dead!"
"So, you do believe me."
"Hah, not a chance! You're dying here, and your death will bring back my dearest! Hyaaaaaaah! Hell's Gate!"
Inuyasha was having difficulties. He couldn't break through the barrier, and he had clearly seen Senayalayasha jump right through it. So…why couldn't he? "Wind Scar!" He cried, over and over again, but the attack merely glanced off and away from the barrier.
Finally, growing tired, he gave up when he saw the shield flicker and vanish; shortly afterwards he heard the clanging of a sword against something. So, Naraku had his hands full. Yay! Inuyasha bounced through the remaining barrier and looked clueless over the ravine that he had to cross first. Not even Sesshomaru, a World Class jumper, couldn't jump over that, and there weren't any stones to help him out, either.
"Oh, how did that one guy do it then? Gow, why does it have to be so frustrating?!"
Hello, Luminaria here with an update! I do believe I sense another sequel coming, but who knows? looks up Well, I suppose God does, but I'm not asking. Anyway, here's those cookies, and here's ten bucks to each of you! Any questions regarding what Inuyasha asked Senayalayasha earlier will be answered next chapter by Naraku himself, but ask all the same and he'll answer them all.
