Chapter 11- Defeating Kikyou???
MANDARIN 'THOUGHTS' SOUNDS
----------------------------------------- (Sorry if this Chapter sucks)
"Ki-Kikyou?? I thought you were finally in peace." Inuyasha asked.
Kikyou chuckled, "You actually thought that I would rest in peace Inuyasha, without taking you to hell with me."
"Something isn't right here. Kikyou should finally be at peace, and even if she was back again why is she here?" Miroku asked.
"Quiet Monk, I'm neither here for you or Inuyasha. I'm here for the girl." Kikyou said pointing towards Shampoo.
"Huh, whats going? What did I do to you?" Shampoo questioned her.
"Keep her out of this Kikyou. She has nothing to do with us." Inuyasha said stepping in front of Shampoo protectively.
"HEY!! I can fight my own battles." Said Shampoo.
"SHUTUP, AND LET ME PROTECT YOU!!" Inuyasha yelled behind him.
"Huh???" Shampoo looked at Inuyasha a little shocked.
"Looks like you found a new woman Inuyasha." Kikyou smirked.
"SHE IS NOT MY WOMAN!!!" Yelled Inuyasha.
"UGH, NEVER!!" Shampoo yelled from behind her.
"Hmm, well that doesn't matter. She's only an obstacle for me to eliminate." Kikyou said taking out her bow and arrow.
"Shampoo, get out of here." Inuyasha said getting out his Tetsaiga.
Shampoo glared at him and backed away knowing it was a no win situation. But as she was backing away something stung her cheek. She touched her cheek gingerly and noticed blood on her hand. She then looked to her left and noticed an arrow stuck on a tree. Shampoo's aura flared, "HOW DARE YOU HIT ME WHILE MY BACKS TURNED!!!" Shampoo yelled getting out her sword.
"Kikyou, I told you to leave her out of this. Now this is between you and me. Now I don't wanna hurt you, so just leave." Said Inuyahsa.
Kikyou laughed, "Inuyasha you can't hurt me. I still know you have feelings for me. And for once Inuyasha this has nothing to do with you. This is between me and her, and if any of you interfer I'll have to kill you too."
"She did nothing to you, why do you want to kill her? You don't even know her. AND WHAT ARE YOU DOING BESIDE ME!?! I TOLD YOU TO RUN AWAY!!!" Inuyasha yelled as he turned his attention to Shampoo who was now beside him in her fighting stance.
"If she wants to fight me then let her fight me. I'm not just gonna let her get away for what she did to me. I don't care who she is." Shampoo said getting ready to attack.
"WHY CAN'T YOU LISTEN TO ME!?!" Inuyasha yelled.
"WELL MAYBE I WOULD LISTEN IF YOU WOULD STOP YELLING AT ME!!!" Shampoo yelled back.
"WELL MAYBE I WOULD STOP YELLING IF YOU LISTENED!!!"
They both went silent as they gave deadly glares to each other. "You think they could just stop fighting for a second and get serious." Miroku said as he sweatdropped.
"Yea, I mean their both supposed to be fighting their opponent, but their fighting each other instead." Shippou said as he sweatdropped also.
"ENOUGH!" Kikyou yelled as she shot another arrow right in between the too, getting their attention. "YOU WILL NOT INTERFER INUYASHA!! I WILL KILL HER THEN I'LL KILL YOU AND YOUR FRIENDS!!!" Kikyou said sending off another arrow towards Shampoo.
Shampoo barely dodged the arrow, but when she looked back up another one was already heading her way. Shampoo cursed herself for letting her guard down. And as she thought the arrow was about to hit her, a large sword blocked the arrow from hitting her. She looked up to see Inuyasha's serious face looking towards Kikyou. "Shampoo leave. I don't care where you go just make sure you get away from here." Inuyasha said not once looking at her.
"Fine." Shampoo said as she ran off. She didn't feel like arguing with Inuyasha when all he was trying to do is help. As Shampoo was running, she felt Kikyou launch another arrow towards her (don't ask me how she would know I guess its just an intuition). Shampoo quickly jumped on to the nearest tree branch, and lept on to the next one and next one. Until she got to the next tree branch she saw a red gleam coming from the other end of the tree limb. She carefully walked towards the other end. But as she finally reached the end, Kikyou launched another arrow, hitting the branch causing it to brake.
"Ow..." Shampoo said as she got up. She looked at the red gem in her hand that had a dim glow to it. 'Whats up with this gem. I feel some strange aura coming from it. Its the same feeling I got...'
Shampoo's thoughts were cut off as she dodged another arrow. "Put that gem down!!" Kikyou said with venom in her voice as she aimed her arrow directly at Shampoo.
-----------------------------------------
Ranma finally escaped his two violent fiancee's. He had been beaten to a pulp, but he finally escaped. It would have taken any normal person weeks to recover, but for the Ranma Saotome it only took him half a day. So now Ranma's goals were to get the hell out of that Inn, see if he could stay at the cabin, hope his fiancee's wouldn't find out, avoid killing Inuyasha, and hope Shampoo wouldn't glomp on him. Right now he had completed one out of five. 'Damn I hope Akane and Ukyou find out about this. But of course once they check my room they'll know where I'm at. Thanks to those idiots Ryouga and Mousse. And now I'm gonna have to deal with Inuyasha. Feh, I'll show him whose boss.' Ranma thought as he arrived to the cabin.
But when he arrived at the cabin, he got more than he expected. It looked like it had recently been burned down into nothing but ash. Ranma gawked at the sight. "No....how did this happen?" Ranma said in shock.
"Well...a demon attacked of course."
Ranma turned around to a familiar voice, "Shampoo??"
"Who else did you expect Airen?" Shampoo asked giving him a smile.
Ranma sighed in relief, "I thought you might have been hurt for a sec."
"Nope, I'm just fine. You really shouldn't be worried Ranma, I have Inuyasha to protect me."
"Speaking of the devil, where's the rest of them at?" Ranma asked curiously noticing something a little off with Shampoo.
"There off looking for a new place for us stay. Its probably going to be on the other half of the woods."
"WHAT!?! HOW THE HELL WILL ME OR THE OTHERS BE ABLE TO CHECK ON YOU!?!" Ranma yelled with wide-eyes.
"Why would you or any of the others need to check on me??" Shampoo said looking at Ranma like he was dumb.
"All because you ain't my girlfriend or wife or something doesn't mean me or the others can't be worried about you. Either way I still feel I need to protect you, Akane, Ukyou, and sometimes even Kodachi." Said Ranma.
"Oh, you don't have to worry about me anymore Ranma. I have Inuyasha to take care of me now."
"What do you mean by that?" Ranma asked confused.
"What I mean Ranma is that, I'm in love with Inuyasha." Shampoo said smiling.
".........." Ranma stood there stock still. Not sure if he heard Shampoo right.
"Aren't you happy Ranma. Now you don't have to be bothered with me anymore. And you can finally get married to Akane." Shampoo said happily.
Ranma finally snapped out of his stupor and caught the last thing she said. "WHAT THE HELL DO YOU MEAN 'FINALLY GET MARRIED TO AKANE'!?!? WHO THE HELL SAID I WAS MARRYING HER!?!? AND HOW CAN YOU LOVE INUYASHA!?! HE'S A DAMN DEMON SHAMPOO!!! DOES HE EVEN LOVE YOU!?!" Ranma asked furiously.
"YES HE LOVES ME RANMA!! UNLIKE SOME, LIKE YOU!! FOR TWO YEARS I'VE SPILLED MY HEART TO YOU AND YOU JUST ALWAYS REJECTED ME AND WENT AFTER AKANE!! Well you know what Ranma, I don't care anymore. I've finally found a place where I'm wanted and loved and I'm staying here. So you can go back to your other fiancees, and go tell them the good news. Cause I am no longer letting you string me along Ranma." Shampoo preached getting in his face.
Ranma stood there shocked. Contemplating whether to hurt her badly or kill her for saying such things that completely weren't true to Ranma. Ranma's fists were balled and his knuckles white from how tightly he held them. Ranma had been through too much shit right now and this was just the icing on the cake. After all he had done, protecting her, worrying about her, being concerned about her, and getting beat by his other fiancees for caring about her. She goes on and gets hitched, with a half-demon no less. And for all the stuff Shampoo put him through she was just ditching him. Oh, he seriously wanted to make her pay. But that totally went against his honor. So Ranma did the only thing he could do right now. He stomped away to go look for Genma, Ryouga, and Mousse to release all his anger.
Shampoo smirked as she saw him walk away, "THATS IT RANMA GO HOME TO YOUR OTHER FIANCEE'S!!!" Shampoo yelled as she watched him walk out of sight. Once she saw him walk out of sight she started snickering to herself as her image slowly faded away.
The dark cloaked figure then jumped out of a tree that was close by. He hid his aura since he knew the boy was a good martial artist. In his hand he held a glowing purple gem that he put back in his cloak. "Now that Ranma boy won't interupt my plans." The figure then jumped away to see how his other pawn was doing.
----------------------------------------- (you know that really wasn't shampoo? just making sure)
Inuyasha jumped in front of Shampoo blocking another arrow. "WHY WON'T YOU LEAVE!?!" Inuyasha yelled.
Shampoo didn't notice Inuyasha yelling at her, because she was too distracted looking at the gem. 'It is. This is the same strange aura I felt when I had put on the ring. Does that mean that old lady I met is up to all this??' Shampoo thought but stopped as soon as she realized she was being carried by Inuyasha, who was running. "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING, INUYASHA!?!" Shampoo yelled.
"While you were off daydreaming, you got attacked six times. So I carried you here, so stay. Miroku and Shippo will watch you." Said Inuyasha, just as Miroku and Shippo caught up.
"WHAT!?! I can take on that wo-" Shampoo was cut off as Inuyasha decided that he wasn't gonna listen and ran off to go find Kikyou before she found Shampoo.
"Really, don't mind Inuyasha. He's only trying to protect you." Said Miroku sitting down.
"I can protect myself." Shampoo growled feeling defenseless
"We know you can, Inuyasha just feels he has to protect somebody." Shippo said jumping on Shampoo's shoulder.
"What's that in your hand?" Asked Miroku.
"Hmm, oh I found it in a nearby tree. It has the same strange aura emitting from it that my ring has." Shampoo said handing Miroku the gem.
"I see, this is a very strange gem. I've never seen one like it." Miroku said looking at it closer.
Just as Miroku brought it closer to his face to examine it an arrow whizzed passed his head causing him to drop the gem. Everyone turned their heads to see Kikyou cringing in pain as the gem hit a rock. "How did you find us so quickly?" Miroku asked taking a fighting stance in front of Shampoo.
Kikyou regained her stance, recovering with a wicked smile, "Lets just say I have a connection with something you have." Kikyou said aiming her arrow, "Now move Monk, before you get hurt."
Miroku didn't stand down. Although he and Shippo were still a little confused about her comment. They thought that connection was with Inuyasha but he left. But Shampoo knew what the connection was. Shampoo quietly scooted over to the gem that fell trying hard not to be noticed. But apparently she wasn't being sneaky enough as an arrow was shot at her. She quickly dodged and grabbed the gem and arrow that was shot at her. Shampoo dodged another arrow, but quickly took cover on the other side of the tree.
"GET BACK HERE!!" Kikyou yelled as she went after Shampoo but was stopped by Miroku. "GET OUT OF MY WAY MONK!!" Kikyou yelled and was about to back hand him until Inuyasha grabbed her arm.
"Looks like I found you Kikyou." Inuyasha said.
Kikyou then started to cringe in pain. Inuyasha quickly released her arm as she sunk to the ground in pain. "Ki-Kikyou whats wrong?" Inuyasha asked feeling concerned.
"N-no....Stop...her..." Kikyou said slowly. Kikyou then got up cringing in pain. 'I...I can't let her do this. I have to finish my job.'
Just as Kikyou started slowly walking in pain, Shampoo showed herself from behind the tree with a severely cracked gem in one hand and the arrow she used to crack it with in one hand. Shampoo was smirking as she saw Kikyou gasp. "NOO!!" Kikyou yelled using the rest of her strength to run towards Shampoo. But just as she did Shampoo took the last strike at the gem causing it to shatter.
Kikyou stopped in mid step and stiffened. But soon relaxed and a sad smile appeared just as Kikyou faded. Inuyasha, Miroku, and Shippo stood there dumbstruck. Inuyasha was the first one to speak up of course, "WHAT THE FUCK JUST HAPPENED!?!?"
