Chapter 14: Traveling, Showdown With Naraku
Everyone packed up and then began to travel again. They weren't in a rush so everyone was walking. Kagome looked around the forest, her eyes wondering from tree to tree. Inuyasha was on the look out for demons. Ame, Rin, and Shippou were running around, and Laura and Sesshoumaru were keeping an eye on them. Miroku was apologizing to Sango because he had 'accidentally' touched her butt
After a while, Inuyasha stopped in his tracks. Kagome bumped into him. "What is it Inuyasha?" She asked
Inuyasha growled. "Naraku..." He stated. He rushed ahead and came to a clearing. In the middle of the clearing, stood Naraku. Kagura was to one side of him and to the other, Kanna. Inuyasha snorted. "It figures. You're too scared to face me alone."
Naraku frowned. "So Inuyasha, where is that wench of yours?" He smirked.
Inuyasha growled. "Don't call Kagome that you bastard!" He yelled. His hands clutched into fists and he growled loudly. Kagome came up behind him followed by everyone else.
Ame, Rin, and Shippou stopped playing and looked at Naraku. Rin yelped and ran to Sesshoumaru and Laura. Shippou climbed up onto Kagome's shoulder and Ame stood her ground. Laura picked Rin up and held her close. "It's ok." She cooed.
Naraku looked at Laura and then at Sesshoumaru. "Well, well, I didn't expect to see you here. Why are you helping your half-breed brother? Have you become so bored with demons that you began to travel with him?"
Sesshoumaru snorted. "Why I travel with him is my business, not yours."
Laura looked at Naraku and could sense his demon aura. No one could miss his aura. She hugged Rin closer.
Naraku's gaze fell on Laura and he smirked. "What's this? Another human? No, two humans." He snorted. "Never thought that Sesshoumaru would have enough room in his heart for two pathetic souls." He smirked at Sesshoumaru.
Sesshoumaru growled lowly and walked up with Inuyasha. "Move Naraku. We're too busy to play today."
Kagura grinned. "That's where you're wrong Sesshoumaru. Have you forgotten about us already? Tsk, tsk." The wind picked up and the sky turned black around them.
Inuyasha withdrew Tetsusagia. "Let's finish this Naraku."
Sesshoumaru stood quietly, looking intently at Naraku and Kagura.
Laura looked at Rin who was shuddering violently. She pulled the small girl closer. "It's ok Rin. Nothing's going to happen to you." She whispered. Rin only shuddered more. Her frantic eyes looked into Laura's eyes.
Kagome gripped the jewel shards she had in her hand. She withdrew her bow and arrows, tucking the shards into her pack.
Sango and Miroku prepared themselves. Sango gripped Hiraikotsu and stood her ground. Miroku had his hand on his prayer beads, ready to battle.
Ame stopped Kagura's wind with her own. She slowly floated a few inches above the ground.
Naraku frowned and then smirked. "You might out number me but your power is weak compared to mine."
Inuyasha smirked. "We'll see about that." He then charged at Naraku. Naraku quickly jumped out of Inuyasha's path and kicked him, sending him flying to the ground. He smirked and then looked at Sesshoumaru and everyone else.
"You're all pathetic souls, thinking you can face me." He snorted and turned to take his leave. "Kagura, take care of these pests, will you?" He took one last look at everyone and black smoke was around him. The black smoke formed a cloud and he was lifted from the ground and began to fly back towards his castle.
Kagura grinned. "I will do that Naraku." She withdrew her fan. "So, how long will it take you mortals to die?" She smirked at them and threw wind disks at them. Ame quickly stopped them before they hit anyone. Kagura grinned. "I'm impressed." She looked to see Inuyasha running up behind her. He slashed at her, tearing her kimono. She quickly jumped away. "Wretched dog!" She scowled. She looked at her arm to see a thin line of blood.
Sesshoumaru looked at Laura and Rin. He then looked back at Kagura. He began to form a poisonous mist in his palm. "Kagura, walk away." He told her sternly.
Kagura smirked. "Oh boy. Now we have full doggy joining in." She looked at Kanna. "Kanna, show Sesshoumaru his fate with your mirror." Kanna looked at Kagura and nodded. She walked over to Sesshoumaru and put the mirror to his eyes.
Sesshoumaru looked into the mirror and could feel his soul coming out. He felt mesmerized by the mirror, not taking his gaze of it.
Laura set Rin down and grabbed a rock. She then threw it. The rock was aimed perfectly and hit Kanna's mirror on target, shattering it.
Kanna looked at her mirror and then at Laura. "That wasn't very nice..."
Kagura snorted. "Kanna, c'mon. They're not worth our time."
Inuyasha growled and jumped at Kagura again, slashing her across her chest this time. Kagura hit the ground and growled. She stood up and started up a tornado. "Let's see how you handle this you little mutt!"
Ame tried to control the tornado but Kagura over powered her. She floated to the ground and took out her knifes. She then charged Kagura. Kagura quickly reacted and used her wind to throw Ame back. Sango threw Hiraikotsu but Kagura used her wind to set it flying back at Sango, hitting her in the stomach. Sango flew to the ground, motionless.
"Sango-chan!" Kagome gasped. She took aim at Kagura. 'Please hit...' She let the arrow fly through the air. Kagura tried to force the arrow away but the arrow broke through her barrier and hit Kagura in her chest. Kagura gasped and growled at Kagome. "Wench!" She sent wind disks at her but Ame blocked them.
Inuyasha then stabbed Kagura again in her chest, blood running to the ground. "Looks like it's the end of you." He smirked and pulled out his sword. Kagura's body fell limp to the ground, blood leaking from her wounds. Inuyasha looked around for Kanna but found that she had left. 'Coward...' He thought.
Kagome was at Sango's side, trying to help her up. "Inuyasha, is she..." Kagome swallowed hard. "dead?"
Inuyasha nodded. "Dead as a doorknob." He walked over to Sango and knelt down. "Is she ok?"
Laura was at Sesshoumaru's side. Sesshoumaru was in shock of what happened and was on his knees. "Sesshoumaru?" Laura asked, shaking him. Sesshoumaru came out of his shock and looked at Laura. She smiled at him. "You're ok. Thank God."
He looked at the ground and then at Laura. "What happened to me?"
"Kanna tried to take your soul through a mirror she had. I shattered it though." Laura explained. She remembered Rin. "Hold on, I have to get Rin." She stood up and walked over to the girl who was in a ball. She picked her up. "It's ok." She cooed.
Sesshoumaru smiled at how gently Laura was with Rin. He slowly stood and walked up to them. "How are you Rin? You ok?"
Rin looked at Sesshoumaru and nodded. "I'm...fine S-S-Sesshoumaru-sama..." She stuttered. She then huddled against Laura.
Laura smiled. "She'll be ok. Just scared." She looked at Sesshoumaru and smiled.
Inuyasha walked over to Rin and Laura. He looked at Sesshoumaru and then at Laura. "Laura, is Rin ok?"
Laura nodded. "She just got scared, that's all." She smiled at him. "Is Sango ok?"
Inuyasha nodded. "Some bumps and bruises but nothing major." He looked at Sesshoumaru and grinned. He then looked at Rin. "Hey Rin?" Rin looked up at Inuyasha to see him pulling at his own face. Rin yelled and hid her face. Laura whapped him in his head. "What did I do?!?!"
Laura rolled her eyes. "Don't scare the poor girl more than she already is."
Inuyasha grumbled. "Let's get going. I want a nice bed tonight like I had last night!" He yelled to everyone. They soon gathered up everything and were on their way again towards the nearest village.
End Chapter.
