Chapter 10: Demon talk

Inu-Yasha and Goku walked through the forest heading towards the capsule house. Goku noticed a considerable limp on Inu-Yasha's part and his saiyan armor was soaked with blood from the bite wounds "You want a senzu bean?"

"No, I'm fine." Inu-Yasha's face had an expression that Goku couldn't place, something between pain, glory, worry, and love?

"why do you and your brother fight anyways?"

"He wants the Tetsusaiga"

"The rusty sword/demon tooth thing right? You guys are trying to kill each other over that?"

"Feh, its my inheiritance, even if he got it, he wouldn't be able to hold or use it. Something about the human blood and will to protect humans. The only human that Sessho-Maru would even consider protecting is the girl with him, Rin." Said Inu-Yasha. He tried to pick up the pace and immediately slowed down clutching his arm. "Damn those venom claws…" They continued on and reached the house and went inside.

"There you are! What took so long? I thought you were just going to look for Goku! And why are you covered in blood?" said Kagome

"Sessho-Maru attacked us, Inu-Yasha took care of him though" replied Goku.

"All by himself?" asked Miroku who was sitting on the couch.

"Feh" said Inu-Yasha

"Let me take a look at those wounds…" said Kagome

"Is Sessho-Maru gone for good?" asked Sango. "No, he got away" replied Inu-Yasha. "We should head out." "What?" cried out everyone

"He's right, that demon knows where we are now" said Goku "What was his name again? Sesshy-Fluffy-Tail?"

Kagome laughed "That's our nickname for him, his real name is Sessho-Maru."

"Well now he's just Sesshy, I cut off his tail while fighting. It should grow back in a few monthes or so."

"How could you get that close? He's so fast!" said Miroku "I used my wind scar at him and when he dodged, he forgot about his tail and I caught it."

"That's enough talk," said Kagome firmly "Lets get you cleaned up Inu-Yasha" she grabbed him by a forelock and dragged him to the bathroom inside their room. She dug around in the cabinet and got some cotton balls, rubbing alchohol, iodine, and bandages. Inu-Yasha took off his shirts and sat on a stool that she brought in "How are you still even walking? You lost enough blood to be unconscious!" "Feh, I'm part demon ya know" "Yeah yeah.." she put some of the alcohol on a cotton ball and began wiping the dry blood off of him. "Did he bite you or something? There's an even pattern all over" "yeah, towards the end he turned to his demon form" Kagome went on carefully with her swabbing thinking "Do you have a demon form?" Inu-Yasha didn't answer so she purposely rubbed a little too hard on a wound "Ouch! Careful wench!" "I asked you a question baka" "…I don't know, I never tried. I know I can turn full youkai, but I never thought of turning to a demon form…" Kagome set the cotton ball down "tomorrow is the full moon isn't it?" Inu-Yasha's eyes grew large "I completely forgot! Damn it! Not only will I be human, but injured, and we'll be traveling." He settled into a scowl while Kagome put some iodine on the deep wounds. "You'll still have the saiyan blood" Inu-Yasha's face immediately lit up "you're right! I guess it'll be different from now on."

back with the others

ring ring Sango and Miroku jumped up their weapons at the ready, Kirara changed form and they stood ready to fight the strange demon ring ring Goku laughed "It's a phone, it works between times. I bet Bulma is calling for something…" He pulled a device from his pocket and put it to his ear

"Goku! You have to come back now, Chi-Chi has the Viral heart disease, the only way to get the antidote is with that time machine!"

"I'm on my way" A serious look took over Goku's face. He hung up and put the phone in his pocket. He ran to Inu-Yasha and Kagome's bedroom and burst in, breaking up a passionate kiss between the two of them "Sorry about that, Kagome, do you know how to capsulize the house?" "Yes" "Good, I have to go back to my time. I can leave some capsules and senzu beans with you, I don't know if and when I can come back" "Why the sudden rush to go?" Asked Inu-Yasha "My wife is in trouble and if I don't go now, I might never see her well again!" Replied Goku. "You go ahead, we'll be fine" said Kagome. Goku immediately left, leaving the box of capsules on the table and flew to a spot to launch the time machine. He got inside and set the controls and took off. 'I'm coming Chi-chi'
