Chapter 12: Baragon Raids Again

One afternoon, Kagome is walking alone in the forest, having a quiet time for herself. Then she smells something horrible. "Eew... What's that smell...? Smells like something familiar..." she says to herself in disgust.

"You must've smelled me," said a voice.

"Who's there?"

A man-sized cockroach jumps up from behind the bushes. "It is I, the cockroach demon!"

"AAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!! A GIANT COCKROACH!!!!!"

"I believe you have some Shikon jewel in your bag! I'm here to take it!" says the demon.

"I'll never give it to you!" Kagome shouts back.

"Then I'll have to get it by force."

The roach charges at Kagome, who quickly dodges to the side. The cockroach kept going and hits a tree. "Can't you stand still?!" shouts the roach.

Suddenly, a baseball flies in pelts the roach demon in the head and he faints. Ness runs into the scene. "Kagome, did the ball hit you?" He sees the roach and says, "What a huge cockroach! Peach will surely freak out!"

The cockroach gets back up and says, "A brat dare hit me! I'll get you for this!"

Ness taunts, "Try and get me!" He blasts the roach with PK Fire, setting it on fire. The cockroach runs in circle with fire all over his body. "FIRE!!!! FIRE!!!!! SOMEBODY PUT IT OFF FOR ME!!!!!!"

Suddenly, Punk zooms into the scene and kicks the cockroach into a pond. "Happy now?" he asks the cockroach demon.

The demon gets back up from the pond. He is very angry and says, "I'll make your life a hell!" The roach charges at Punk, but he grabs the roach by his head and starts pummeling his stomach. Punk then throws the roach forward, followed by shooting laser beams at him. Ness then zaps it with PK Thunder. Finally, Punk grabs the roach and tears him apart using his pincers.

The roach, which is now ripped in half, still says, "This cannot be happening..." Then Punk crushes the head, permanently killing it. "Now just shut up," Punk says.

"Thank you for saving me," Kagome thanks them.

"Say... I have never saw Punk rescuing someone," says Ness.

"Everyone will always have a bit of heart in him or her, even if they're evil," Punk tells him.

Just when they're about to leave, trees sprang up from the ground and blocks their way! They try to go in another direction, but more trees block their way! "A demon must be at work!" Kagome points out.

"You are right, human," says a voice. A beautiful half-naked woman appears from behind the trees and says, "I am the demon of the tree. I am here to take your Shikon shards."

"Wooooooo!!!!!" howls Ness. "I never thought I would see a beautiful lady who is almost naked!"

"We demons feel no shame," she tells him. "Now please hand me the shards and no one will get hurt."

Punk steps in front of Kagome. "Leave this to me,"

Ness also steps forward and says, "I can handle it also. My PK Fire can burn her,"

Ness shot a spark from his hand at the demon, but she jumps out of the way. When the spark hits the tree behind her, it burns up. "How dare you burn the beautiful trees with fire?!" she scolds him. "I will punish you!" She fires razor sharp leaves at Ness. Ness quickly dodges it, but got a tiny cut on his right arm. "Ouch! It hurts!" he cries. "But big boys shouldn't cry. Plus, this wound is no big deal."

Punk shot lasers at the demon, but she summons a big piece of leaf to block it. "How can a simple piece of leaf block a laser beam?!" Punk exclaims.

"Demons can make the impossible possible," Kagome tells him.

Punk and Ness charges at the demon, but vines appear out of nowhere, grabs them, and flings them away. Then the vines proceed to attack Kagome. Before the vines could get to her, Punk rushes to cut off the vines using his pincers. Ness blasts the demon with PK Fire, but she jumps out of the way. "How dare a little kid play with fire?!" says the demon. "You shall not be forgiven!" She shot pointy twigs at Ness. Suddenly, Inuyasha jumps into the scene and knocks the twigs away before it hits Ness.

"Thanks for saving me, Inuyasha!" Ness thanks him.

"I'm just doing what I should do," Inuyasha tells him.

"So you're the half-demon everyone is talking about," the demon says. "Let's see who is stronger!" The demon sent vines after Inuyasha. He charges forward and slashes all the vines. Unfortunately, one of the vines caught Inuyasha by his leg. The vine swings Inuyasha around and slams him against the ground; finally it flings him high into the sky.

Punk rushes to the demon's back and catches her by the arms. "You're not getting away!" Punk tells her. Ness runs in front of her and says, "Hold her still while I blast her with PK Fire!"

The demon still got some tricks up her sleeves (even though she's wearing almost nothing). Her legs dig into the ground and then roots come up from behind Punk! The roots are like hands and it grabs Punk and flings him toward Ness, knocking out both of them. "How did you do that?!?!?" cries Punk. "My legs can turn into roots and dig into the ground," the demon explains to him.

Inuyasha falls back down from the sky and slashes the demon's back, making a long scratch mark across her back. "You ruined my beautiful skin!" she cries. "You'll pay!"

Immediately, vines appear around Kagome and wrap her up! "Kagome!" Inuyasha shouts! "Don't move, or else the vines will squeeze her life out," she tells him.

Suddenly, there was an earthquake. "Earthquake!!!!" shouts Ness. "Run for cover!!!!"

Then the ground bursts open and out came the monster Baragon! "It's that monster who attacked the village before!" exclaims Punk.

Baragon looks at them and steps towards them fiercely. "What are you looking at, you ugly!" the demon shouts as she shot razor sharp leaves at Baragon. Baragon open its mouth and blasts with a stream of fire, burning the leaves. The fire continues moving forward and burns the tree demon! The demon screams and rolls along the ground, trying to put out the fire. Baragon stomps the burning demon, then it lowers its head and crunches and gnashes the demon between its sharp teeth. Then the vines wrapping around Kagome withers away. Baragon chews on the demon's flesh, and then it spits out a couple of Shikon shards. Inuyasha immediately picks up the shards. "Thanks for help, ugly," Inuyasha thanks Baragon.

After swallowing its food, Baragon roars again and glares at Inuyasha. "What? Still not full?" asks Inuyasha.

"It probably wants a rematch," says Ness.

The 30-meter tall monster pounces at Inuyasha. Inuyasha jumps back and slashes its face. Baragon roars and tries to stomp Inuyasha, but misses. Inuyasha delivers a strong slash at its body. Baragon turns to bite him, but Inuyasha jumps away. Baragon blasts a stream of fire at Inuyasha. Inuyasha avoids the fire, but the fire has become a flame of circle, trapping him in the middle. "This is nothing at all," he says.

Baragon jumps over the flames and pounces at Inuyasha. Baragon nails him to the ground, but he holds the monsters mouth close to prevent if from opening it and biting his head off.

The other three watches from outside the flames. Kagome says, "We need to put out the fire before it spreads!"

"You call the others for help!" points out Punk. "We'll help Inuyasha!"

Kagome runs back to the village to get help. Punk and Ness continues looking at the fire. "You get over the fire and help Inuyasha," Ness says to Punk.

"No, you go over," Punk replies.

"You go."

"You."

"You"

"You"

"You go!"

"You!"

"YOU GO!!!!"

"YOU GO!!!!"

"YOU!!!!

"YOOOOOOUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!"

Suddenly, Inuyasha jumps out from the flames. "Nobody has to go now," says Ness.

Baragon jumps through the flames and goes after them again. Ness blasts Baragon with PK Thunder and Punk shot it with lasers. The force of the attacks pushes Baragon back. Then the three all charge at Baragon and starts beating it hardly. Ness smacks it with his bat, Punk pokes it rapidly with his pincers, and Inuyasha slashes it with his claws.

Finally, Baragon can't take the hit anymore, so it runs off and burrows into the ground in a blink of an eye.

"Get back here!" Inuyasha shouts at it.

"Don't bother, he's gone," says Ness.

The rest of the villagers comes running into the scene and starts throwing buckets of water. Not only did it douse out the fire, it also soaked the tree. And Punk turns into his cursed form...

Soon, the fire is put out and the villagers return to their homes. "All right, let's g back," says Inuyasha. "We have enough fight for the day already."

Ness sees something inside a hollow tree. "I see something inside the tree," he said. He goes to examine it, and then he turns to Inuyasha, "Would you mind cracking this tree open? There's something inside." Inuyasha just swipes his claw and the tree breaks in half. Inside the hollow tree is another steel piece!

"Ooooo gagagaga ooga hoo!!!!" cries Punk.

"What did he says?" asks Kagome.

"How can I understand monkey language?" says Ness.

"All right, let's go now," Inuyasha tells them. When he turns around, he sees Jaken. "I didn't expect to see you here!" says Jaken.

"Me too," says Inuyasha. "Where's my idiot, cruel, loser brother?"

"Watch your mouth, my younger brother," says a voice from nowhere. Sesshomaru appears out of nowhere. "Master! I've been searching forever for you!" cries Jaken happily.

Sesshomaru eyes Inuyasha. "Now that we have met, let us deal with our business. Give me the Tetsusaiga."

"Not until you beat me!" Inuyasha shouts back.

But Sesshomaru sniffs the air. "Rin!" he says. Then he starts to turns away. "I have something important to do," he tells Inuyasha. "Next time we meet, I will surely take the Tetsusaiga from you." With this, he and Jaken speeds off.

"Did he call you younger brother?' asks Ness. "That means he's your older brother."

"Not really," Kagome says. "They're actually half brothers."

"Half brother means they come from the same father but from a different mother or vice versa, right?" asks Ness.

"They have the same father, but a different mother," Kagome tells him. "Sesshomaru is a full demon."

"So that means Inuyasha's father married a demon before he married a human. I see they don't get together very well."

"Absolutely not well!!" Inuyasha shouts out, then he storms off to the village.

"Bad brother relationship..." mutters Ness.

TO BE CONTINUED...

Looks like I still have a lot to know about Inuyasha.  Nevertheless, I'll still continue working with this story.  And I have made a mistake in chapter 4...  The part where the Pirates turn back to their normal forms.  The winged monkey turns into Punk and the cow turns into Pork.  I accidentally typed "cow turns into Punk"...
