Chapter 17, Miko Tora
"Kagome wake up" Inuyasha shook her awake "here take your bow and arrows they were actually her bow and arrows, Naraku attacked the village last night come on" Inuyasha growled, that quickly woke Kagome up and she grabbed the weapons that were handed to her then jumped on Inuyasha's back which was really a horse demon and they raced off. "W..wh..what how did I get here" Inuyasha thought and why was the smell the wafted around so nauseating he then recognized the smell it was the same thing he smelt when Sango was exterminating a demon he sat straight up but that made him dizzy when his eyes focused he saw that he was being held in a wooden cage with demon trapping scrolls covering every inch of it and there were demon exterminators all around fanning stuff at him so that he could be destroyed when he was weak enough then it suddenly hit him he must have collapsed because of being so tired then these demon exterminators must have found him and taken him to their village gods unless he got out of there soon his pelt would be their newest trophy. The smoke cleared away without warning and a female hanyou stepped out, she had hair that seemed to be a touch lighter the Kagome's, eyes that were hazel, fair skin, and a kick ass attitude a Kagome and a Inuyasha mix to go with it all, she was wearing a Miko robe like the one Kikyo wore except it was made from white tiger fur, and she had a mask on that was exactly like Sango's, her claws were longer then even Kagome's and he could smell hatred radiating from her, her eyes lit up by her fiery spirit around her neck was necklace of jade prayer beads which unknown to Inuyasha was the weakest weapon she possessed and not just some girly accessory though she had to admit it went well with her eyes. The hanyou unlocked the cage then slipped into it and locked it behind her with a flick of a tail one of her delicate clawed hands covering her nose. "My My what have I caught to be exterminated today" then she laughed then she place her hand in a position so if he tried anything she could easily kill him "take all the village and go back to your look outs this one is mine" the Hanyou spoke in a quite voice "yes my lady we will come for his body when you are done with him" one of the demon slayers said then they all left Inuyasha gulped after he heard the comment about his dead body when he turned his head he saw that he as looking right into the hanyou's hazel eyes. "Now youkai I want answers and every time that you don't answer my hand will feel tighter around your neck now then lets start, my questions are who are you and why did I find you near this village half dead?" the hanyou asked distain laced every word "my name is Inuyasha and as for what I was doing you'll never know, he wasn't going to tell this hanyou about his personal business" Inuyasha smirked he felt the hand that was around his throat tighten a lot apparently she wanted answers and she did not care who she had to kill to get them Inuyasha was starting to have a hard time breathing if she tightened her hand one more time then his air would be totally cut off and he would die quickly "m...my mate" he gasped then fell limp in her grasp from not enough air and not sleeping for a long time. "Lady Hanyou surely it won't be" the demon slayers complaint was cut off "he hasn't hurt anyone and he needs his strength back as well as I'm still not sure whether to kill him or release him" with that the Hanyou turned on her heel and walked back to the cage. When Inuyasha awoke he tried to move but found he could not he looked down and saw jade prayer beads entrapping him "damn she's smart" he thought amused, he quickly sized up the matter and the answer to the problem came to him "claws of blood" he yelled and threw his attack at the sleeping hanyou who dodged it quickly but she miss judged and soon found herself on the floor of the cage with Inuyasha pinning her down by her neck "hanyou you will let me out now or I will kill you" Inuyasha threatened "he you think I give a shit about my death I would thank you if you killed me actually, for Naraku killed my parents and I have nothing to live for" she smirked looking defiantly into his eyes but her eyes held something for a minute Inuyasha placed it quickly as sorrow and a plea to kill her swiftly and soon "why youkai do you think I stayed in here with you without my strongest spells and weapons, it was in hope that you would kill me so that I could be with my parents again so do it then you can brag about how you killed a hanyou priestess and devoured her" she closed her eyes and waited for him to slice her in half or sink his fangs into her. Inuyasha was speechless she had actually begged him to kill her and uhh devour her did she think he was so inhuman that he would kill one of his own kind "what are you waiting for" she demanded "have you ever killed anyone I suppose you have not, here I'll show how to do it" without warning she grabbed his face and hand and brought his claws and fangs to her throat so that all he had to do was bite and slice and she would be dead, "wh..what are you doing" Inuyasha stuttered as he spoke he felt his fangs sink into her neck "that's it now harder" She whispered he couldn't believe it she was actually coaxing him to kill her he wouldn't do it but her blood was so tasty his demon side called out for it for her blood her tasty delicious blood and her flesh all tasted so delectable in his mouth it scared him he pulled back and huddled in the corner shivering at what he had almost taken delight in doing "why did you stop you should have been happy about me giving you a free meal and freedom why did you let me live I wish to end this life" the hanyou said before she fell to the ground weeping, Inuyasha moved closer to her to comfort her and she ended up falling asleep in his arms as he fell asleep leaning against the cage. "The youkai he seduced lady hanyou get him" the exterminators yelled but as soon as they came near him a shield burst up from out of no where and the thought to be sleeping hanyou spoke "stay away from him he is my prey, yet I may still release him" the exterminators were grumpy but they left. "Sorry about last night" the hanyou said sitting back down "sometimes I just want to give up on living altogether, and I thought that you would be ecstatic if I asked you to help me kill my self I didn't know that you were not a blood thirsty youkai like all the rest, by the way my name's Tora, and if you don't mind could you tell me why I found you outside the village passed out?", Inuyasha had to work very hard to keep his mouth from watering every time he looked at the spot where he had bit her the night before his youkai side could still taste her wonderful blood "feh I'll tell you Tora....." he told her everything from when he had first met Kikyo to when he had passed out, she listened carefully and when he was done spoke "Inuyasha if I set you free I ask of one thing that you kill Naraku very very very slowly let him feel the pain that he has inflicted", Inuyasha looked at her pretended to consider it then told her he would do it. Tora took off the demon trapping spells and the special lock which she pocketed then opened the door for him, he got so many weird looks some were even threatening from the exterminators as he walked through the village, when he reached the gate ahead of Tora the guards pointed every weapon imaginable at him all were aimed for his heart he stopped and decided to wait for Tora before going any further, "it's alright he's with me, back to your posts" Tora ordered and the guards disappeared again, when the gate was opened Tora turned to him "Inuyasha thank you for this if you ever meet up with any exterminators and they give you trouble you tell them that you an acquaintance of Tora's and they'll most likely back down any way good bye" she looked up into his eyes and gave him a kiss she turned away blushing and he continued on the path that lead to Kagome and Naraku.
