I do not own any Inuyasha Characters Nor do I wish I did. I just love to write. I am also sorry about the previous rating,
I was rateing the whole series
Inuyasha and Legend stare each other down before they each draw their Blades. The Tetsesiega glows with golden light as it is drawn. Legends blade however sparks with dark fire as it is taken from his sheath. "let's fight a good fight, Inuyasha" Legend says.
"hardly" Inuyasha taunts at him "your evil aura is clearly seen by all here. You would no sooner fight dirty then fight the good fight"
"you will regret those words" he calls back.
The others arrive just as Inuyasha and Legend start the fight. "what! Kagome!" Miroku says surprised. "why are you not tied up or anything?"
"glad to see that your worried" she snaps back sarcastically.
"sorry, I just expected that he'd have you tied or something"
"no. he said for me not to be scared. He said his actions are not hostile" she tells them. They hear Inuyasha scream in pain after that. "what! Inuyasha!" they all shout.
"he is alright" Legend says "get up Inuyasha! Your not through yet"
"urrgh" he groans as he gets up "you bastard. How dare you hurt me"
"careful, your ego's showing" he taunts
"that's it. Kaze No Kaza!" he bellows. The Wind Scar screams toward Legend. He quickly Points his finger and commands "Chaos Lance" a cone of dark energy spews forth from his finger and acts as a shield for Legend. The wind scar crashes into it and sparks of massive energy explode. "arrgh" Legend grunts "your good Inuyasha, I'll give you that. But it will take more then that to get me off guard" he tells him.
"damn" Inuyasha thinks to him self "he blocked my wind scar with a simple energy attack. Wait! He used it as a shield. Maybe the red Tetsesiega could break through it and get him…it's worth a try" Inuyasha calls forth the Wind Scar again. But this time he uses it's barrier breaking technique. Legend quickly Guards again but this time…CRASH! A direct hit. The wind scar blasts through the barrier and hits Legend. He falls to the ground with a huge wound on his left arm. "arrgh!" he screams in pain. "damn what happened"
"oh" Inuyasha says with false sympathy. "did your little trick not work this time"
"you little! Chaos Lance" he shouts again the energy sparks from his hand but it does not come forth "what! What is happening! Did he disable my energy? He'll pay!" Legend rushes Inuyasha quickly attacking with everything he's got. Inuyasha Guards with the Tetsesiega but is being heavily pushed back. "damn, he has more strength then even me" Inuyasha looks desperately for an opening but can't see one. "Damn! His technique is flawless. His power is uncounterable due to his speed as well. I have only one choice" Inuyasha throws away the Tetsesiega and takes a blow head on. Legend quickly back off. The others gasp. "Inuyasha what are you doing!" Kagome and Songo both cry. "Inuyasha stop" Miroku shouts. But it it's all too late. Inuyasha has turned into a ravenous demon and looks at Legend. "heh, heh, heh, the tables have turned" he says sternly.
"think again" Legend says back. He pulls a sutra out of his sleeve and holds it in front of him. He slowly pulls his hand away as it floats in place. "oh no" Miroku worries "he can't be" the others are intrigued at Miroku. "what is it Miroku?" Shippo Asks. Miroku turns slowly towards the group. "he is a Priest of the Light"
"A Priest of the Light?" they all says stumped.
"yes. A Priest of the Light. The highest order of priests in the land. What he is doing I have somewhat of an idea" the other signal for him to continue. "you all remember that we couldn't sense any demons but an evil presence from him. I believe that an evil spirit has a grasps on him and is controlling him. Now the skill he is using is to bind a spirit. But I believe that he knows his own power and is using the sutra to awaken a new strength. This fight has just gotten bigger. We should get out of here" the others nod and runs out of the forest. Kagome wonders if Inuyasha will make it out alive.
Legend starts to cast the sutra on him self. He places it upon his forehead. Sparks fly from the sutra as it attaches to him. He screams in pain wails. The sutra trying to bind the all powerful spirit inside. The sutra burn into ashes after a short while and is replaced by a multi-crescent moon symbol. His hair and sword lit aflame with black fire. "fight" he says with an evil possessing voice. Inuyasha and Legend go at it for some time. The gang watches the fight from above on Hachi. "wow, those to are powerful. I can feel the impact up here" Miroku says.
"what is going to happen" Songo worries
"they're evenly matched" he says "they are exchanging quite the blows" the two go on fighting for hours cleaving wounds in each others hides like bears fighting for territory.
The battle finally come to a close Inuyasha and Legend both impaled by each others wounds. Inuyasha quietly sleeping. Kagome pays her respects to Inuyasha but looks over at Legend and kneels to his side. She feels for a pulse…none. "oh no" she says worried. "he's dead" a tear come from her eye. "he said his actions weren't hostile" she cries even more but notices something. A strange paper on his neck behind the collar of his shirt and jacket. She moves them and reveals a Sutra. Written on it says. "hold thy spirit and blood. May it come the day that it stops."
"what could this mean?" Kagome wonders. Legend fidgets with little life. Kagome, startled, jumps back onto Miroku's lap. He can't help the urge. (rub rub) Kagome shrieks in terror. Both Inuyasha and Songo crack him in the back of the head. "Miroku!" the both scorn him. "what did I say before" Inuyasha tells him.
Miroku gets up quickly and pleads Inuyasha not to kill him. "just don't it again, alright" Inuyasha bargains with the monk. "yes, yes. Oh thank you lord in heaven" Legend tries to get up but falls back down beaten. Inuyasha casually walks over and lends him a hand. "get up" he says kindly "the least I owe you is this" he says.
"thank you" Legend says to Inuyasha. "but you, too, saved my life"
"what!" the others shocked. "how?" they all ask.
"well as the monk has found out I am possessed. But only in a manner of speaking. My Rage, Anger, Hatred, Jealousy, and all other emotions that would lead someone to killing as a solution are embodied. And when an extreme amount of which is exerted. I am transformed. This also works with pain. The sutra I used does not bind a spirit. But harms the body that the spirit is inside. The body would die but the extreme amount of pain causes a transformation. The symbol on my forehead means Chaos. This symbolises that I am no longer in control. I am also cursed by my father…"
Kagome steps in. "is that why there is a sutra on your neck?" she questions
Miroku gasps. "on your neck. But why?"
Legend answers simply "my fathers curse forces my life force or blood if you will to be consumed or leave my body out of this wound" he removes the sutra to reveal a curved cut on his neck. The wound still bleeds slightly. "the sutra holds the curse at bay. My father passed away after the birth of Esensna, my niece"
The group gasps. "so you now can't remove the curse" Miroku states
"yes, but I did not say I wanted it removed. It can't be removed. He has decreed that every son from his blood shall suffer a fate of endless life as Bringers of the End. I need someone to bare me a daughter to stop the curse from my end" he quickly motions to Kagome. "you seem to be not of this world. But the next. Would you like to keep the world that way. Then please bare me my daughter?" Kagome is stunned by his direct approach. Inuyasha quickly gives him a blow to the head. "stay away from her!" he commands him as he drags him away from her. "intriguing" Miroku says "you emit a dark aura because you are cursed. But explain something Legend. If you are indeed evil how can you harness the powers of the priest of light?" he asks
"in my second century of life I was a legendary priest of light. If I haven't told you before I only exist in legends. When one comes I take my place"
"wait!" Songo interrupts "you said second century? Your over 200 years old? You barely look fifteen!"
"your right! I am fifteen. And on my third century. My life is lived immortally only based on the fact that I never stay out of my prison more then a year"
"prison?" Shippo asks.
"yes, fox. I was in prisoned as my first life of a Verial. My blood line. An Emerald Rose is my sign of capture. Touch it and I am bound to you"
"bound" Inuyasha says "what do you mean?"
"like you to Kagome, I shall serve there every whim"
"whoa, whoa, whoa. I am not 'Bound' to anyone. I serve my purpose"
"then why not look for the shards your self" he says waiting for Kagome to cut in.
"well, I…ah" he stammers
"well anyway. We should not waste time. You and I have the same target and we must vanquish him"
"what!" Inuyasha says stunned at his abruptness "you think your coming with us. And what do you mean the same target. What did Naraku do to you?"
"it's not what but will. The legend I fallow is one that says I must stop the most evil of demons from ruling the world. But the legend also says that he will find my presence and take control and force me to kill all that I care for and protect. So I must kill him or have my next of kin do it"
"but if this happens we'll be in direct conflict with you" Songo states
"no not really. I forced this fight on Inuyasha so that we could become Rivals in strength. As long as I stick by that you should be safe"
and so with another friend Inuyasha and the gang head off to new adventures with Legend. But are they safe with him?…….
