Reunited Love
Chapter 8: Love and War
Disclaimer: As always, I do not own Inu-Yasha. All OCs own themselves.
Sorry for the lack of updates. Been kinda lazy and being busy with school work. Anyways, I hope you like this chapter and I'd like some feedback. I don't get that many reviews.

Luna slowly opened her eyes and groaned. "Where am I?" She tilted her head to the side to look at her surroundings. Nothing was familiar...except for a certain silver-haired mutt.
"Foolish cat." Was the only thing he said.
'He didn't kill me?' Luna thought. She was confused. She tried to sit up, but pain made her lay back down.
"Move around, and the poison won't filter as quickly."
'What does he mean by "filter"? And why is he helping me if he wanted me dead?' "Sesshomaru...why did you help me? I thought you wanted me to die?"
"If I killed you, Rin would be unhappy. And good slaves are hard to come by." Sesshomaru looked at Tensaiga, deep in thought. He knew he had just lied to Luna. There was a different reason he had saved her instead of killing her. He then heard the wooden door creak open. Luna was on her feet and making yet another attempt to get away from him. He stopped her and gently set her down on the bed she had been laying on.
"Let me go Sesshomaru!" Luna struggled. She winced as the pain of her wound struck her again. "As much as I 'appreciate' you tending to me, you injured me in the first place! Not to mention I-"She was cut off as Sesshomaru firmly pressed his lips against hers. Luna was, none-the-less, stunned. Her eyes widened and a blush formed across her cheeks. She immediately ceased her struggling and quieted down.
Sesshomaru slowly pulled away. "We leave for the castle tomorrow. Get some rest."

Inu-Yasha and co. had decided to go back to Kaede's village. Kagome was running low on supplies and they thought Kaede could be of help.
Shippo, who was sitting on Sakeri's shoulder, had noticed how quiet she was. "Sakeri?"
Sakeri was silent for a moment. "Sesshomaru...is the reason why sis and I moved away from our home village when we were young. He would torment her to no end. Now that Sesshomaru has her, who knows what he's doing to her."
"He's crueler then I thought." Miroku said.
Everyone was snapped out of their thoughts as Kagome let out a sharp, pain filled yep.
"What happened Kagome?!" Sango said with worry in her voice.
Kagome winced. "Something...or someone attacked me!"
Everyone looked around for the attacker, but the area seemed void of anyone but them.
"I...smell a half breed wolf close by." Inu-Yasha said as he put a hand on Tetsusaiga's hilt. "Show yourself!"
A figure stepped out of the shadows, whip in hand, almost completely hidden behind a cloak.
"Who are you? And what do you want?" Neko-Yasha asked.
"...The priestess must die." Said the cloaked figure, obviously a female from the sound of her voice. She put away the whip and removed a sword from it's sheath. She pointed the sword at Kagome.
"But, I'm not a priestess! What'd I do?" Kagome took a step back. "You must have me confused with someone else!"
"Don't play dumb soul stealer!" The figure launched her attack But before she could strike Kagome, Inu-Yasha intervened, knowing if he didn't, he'd never be able to stand straight again. "Out of the way, dog!"
"I don't think so!"
Sango and Kilala soon joined the fight while Miroku stood there thinking.
"A soul stealing priestess..." After a moment, a thought struck him. "She's mistaken Miss Kagome for Kikyo!"
At the battle, Kilala had transformed into her larger form. She lunged at the figure, but the attack was mostly evaded. Kilala instead got a hold of the cloak and managed to remove it, showing the full form of the attacker.
"She looks...human. Inu-Yasha said she was half wolf, but she doesn't look wolf." Shippo said. "Yeah, but she does have wolf blood...I can sense it." Neko-Yasha added.
"Excuse me miss," Miroku started as he approached the wolf hanyou. "Miss Kagome is not the one you seek. The one you seek is-"He was cut off my a surge of pain caused by the wolf hanyou's blade striking him.
"Out of the way monk. I know the soul stealer's scent. And it has lead me to her. She is the one I seek." The hanyou snapped. She glared coldly at Kagome. She wasn't going to quit until she killed her target.
