Battle of the Hanyous

Suddenly the front gates collapsed in a violent eruption. The girls stopped struggling when they saw two figures behind the cloud of dust.

Kagome: "Inuyasha!"

Soun Yee: "Sesshomaru!"

The canine brothers (good guys) stepped out of the smoke into the courtyard. There they saw Naraku sitting smugly and the women chained to the wall behind him with two strange demons.

Naraku: "I'm so glad you could join us. Now I won't have to torture these damsels to find out your plans."

Both Inuyasha and Sesshomaru glared, snarled and growled at Naraku. Soun Yee and Kagome tugged harder at their chains to break free.

With a wave of a hand by Naraku the humanlike dog slashed at Kagome with his claws; the second slammed Soun Yee hard into the wall nearly knocking her out.

"You bastard, I'm going to make you regret hurting Kagome like that." Inuyasha said drawing out Tetsiga into its full transformation.

"Not before I slaughter you for harming Soun Yee!" Sesshomaru shouted releasing Tokejin from its sheath.

"Ku ku ku ku. You would like to, but first you'll have to beat me to get them. That's something I will never let you do." With that Naraku released a hoard of a thousand demons surrounding the huge courtyard.

Inuyasha stepped back in shock, "Darn it. He must really mean it to send this many."

A horde of slimy worm-like demons charged first. Everyone took separate sides of the courtyard slicing and dicing each demon easily. Swords, boomeranges, and talismens flew through the air destroying the countless demons.

Inuyasha was doing fairly well with his batch until suddenly a furry human-like demon tackled him from the side.

Sesshomaru destroyed a dozen more with his dragon whip when the other demon tackled him from behind. He tumbled throwing it off. Quickly getting back to his feet he starred face to face with a rabid canine demon fangs ready to tear the flesh away. Sesshomaru narrowed his eyes degusted, "To think you two were pups a day ago."

The crazed dog growled in rage, pawing at the ground ready to strike.

A mantis demon lunged toward the aristocratic apparition.

Sesshomaru drew Tokejin stabbing clean through its head. When it fell he stepped toward one of its long bladed claws, keeping a stern eye on the incarnation. He sliced off the mantis's left arm and attached it to where his own arm was. "Sorry, but this has to be done."

Naraku soon grew irritated by the lingering battle, "Enough stalling. Go my demon, kill your former mother!"

Just as he said that the human/canine incarnation leaped away from Inuyasha and charged toward Soun Yee still chained to the wall.

"Soun Yee!" Seeing the creature Seshomaru threw his sword in its direction. The blade drove clean through the demon only a few yards from the women. Both brothers sighed with relief.

Soun Yee: "Sesshomaru look out!"

Sesshomaru had his back turned to the other incarnation and in turn the wolf pounced onto his back and clamped his jaws deep into his shoulder.

Still on the ground Inuyasha threw the Tetsiaga toward the demon. It also drove clean through (Note: personally I'm against violence against dogs and wolves.) knocking it off as well as Sesshomaru's borrowed arm.

Inuyasha: (panting) "Are you alright?"

Sesshomaru just looked away complexly expressionless, "You just love taking my arms don't you?"

"Alright! Way to go Inuyahsa! Slaughter those beasts!" Kagome shouted but stopped immedetly when she looked over to Soun Yee, "Oh, umm...I'm sorry..."

Soun Yee: "That's...alright. Naraku's only used the flesh of our babes to create those wretched drones. Their souls had left this world long before tonight."

"Hay Naraku, there goes another incarnation. Guess your craftsmanship isn't as good as you say." Inuyasha said turning to Naraku and sticking his tongue out at him.

Naraku sighed amusingly, "Whatever." And with a snap the shackles holding the girls deteriorated.

"Sesshomaru!" Soun Yee cried out as she ran straight into his arm (hey Inuyasha cut off the other remember? That's why he attached the other demon's.)

Sesshomaru held her close to himself rubbing left side of his face in her hair, "Are you alright Soun Yee? I was so woried."

She braced him tightly, burying her head in his soft boa, "I'm fine now Sessh."

Kagome knelt down to Inuyasha still lying on the ground from the battle at the other side of the courtyard. "You know, they make quite a cute couple don't they?"

"Feh, I still think it's an act."

Soun Yee quickly remembered the bite wound on Sesshomaru's left shoulder, "But wait, you're seriously hurt."

"It's nothing to worry about. As long as Tenseiga is with me I can't be killed so easily."

"Really now?" Naraku observed. He raised one hand in front of his face a conjured up a dozen dark shards. "Let's see if you can survive this." Sure enough six of the black gems whizzed through the air toward them.

"Sesshomaru look out!" Inuyasha shouted in warning.

Sensing the danger Sesshomaru quickly shoved her to the side out of the way. Soun Yee looked over in horror as all six shards were shot into his body. One went into each shoulder, two near the legs, and the other two in opposite sides of his abdomen.

"Sesshomaru!"

She tried to get up to him but the other six had already plunged into his flesh. Two more in abdomen, two others in the chest, and the last ones dangerously close to the throat. Sesshomaru fell back on his knees, bleeding from all sides and panting heavily.

"So you're still alive. Well, we'll see about that." Naraku focused his dark energies to create another dark shard. One who's blackness could only be matched by his own heart and four times the size of the original Shekon Jewel. He aimed it carefully at the wounded dog demon's heart. "Now die Sesshomaru!"

The dog demon looked up, trying to sense what was coming but his senses were blurred from the blood loss. He felt something push against him knocking him to the ground. It was followed by a loud scream of pain. The quick healing power of his sword revived him enough to see what had happened. Soun Yee was standing in font of him withshock in her eyes. Her face was pale as she shook in pain. Sesshomaru caught her as she fell forward onto him. He gasped when he saw the end of the jewel knife sticking out of her back. "Soun Yee!"
