Third episode: A Part Of Everybody. The Tale Untold.
Inuyasha rests sheepishly in his tree wilts the others heed there attention to Legend. Legend greets everyone and politely pushes them aside getting his space. He walks to the bottom of the tree when Inuyasha speaks up.
"looks like someone is the new pup" he says arrogantly
"hey I don't like it as much as you! I didn't really want you to worry. These people aren't my type. You and Miroku don't have to worry about your women" Inuyasha loses his balance and falls of the tree with that statement.
"how dare you think that I am jealous"
"well" he starts "from your reaction you are either appalled or angry that I am right or am assuming"
"why…you- arrgh"
"come now Inuyasha, I wish to tell you some thing" he waves him on
"what?" Inuyasha is caught in thought. "what is he trying to pull" he follows cautiously.
They move to an empty field and Legend grabs his equipment. Inuyasha quickly draws back.
"I knew you were trying to kill me!" he says
"relax pup" he says trying to aggravate Inuyasha. "I am here to train you. Your moves were easily dodgeable. You have the head on tactic well handled. But I must teach you further on how to make it perfect"
"huh?" Inuyasha befuddled at what he just said. "in English"
"if I said it so you could understand you would take it the wrong way" he quickly throws his shield at Inuyasha. He quickly puts his sword up to block the shield only to have Legend pressing the attack as he did last time. "you always relay on you defensive stance you need to dodge when you can" Legend speaks to Inuyasha as he attacks. "damn. Again I can't counter. Wait!" he notices that last time he had his shield so his left arm could still hold defence on the pressing attack. But it is still in the ground. "I have you now" Inuyasha says confidently.
"you forgot to put your opponents intellect into the matter" Legend says back. Inuyasha waits for the precise moment to strike. Right when he uses his left arm for a two handed swing. "there" he bellows as he goes for the kill. He thrusts his sword at Legend. Legend quickly disappears in his cloud. "damn you come out and fight" Inuyasha cries out.
"I never left" Legend says waiting by his shield. He pulls it up out of the ground and rushes Inuyasha again. Inuyasha resheaths the Tetsuseiga and uses his Iron Reaver Soul Stealer. Legend takes the attack head on. Inuyasha surprised at the success tries again and again with several successes. "yeah!" he says with each blow. Legend then realising that Inuyasha think he has the upper hand lunges his fist into Inuyasha's stomach and piles his hand through him. Inuyasha gasps for air and holds his chest.
"Pride is a sin. It comes to those who use it"
"d-damn" he says as he collapses. Legend quickly gets Inuyasha back to town. Keade surprised at Legend arrival.
"who are ye?" she asks.
"I am the new friend of the gang" he says.
Keade looks at Inuyasha then back at him. "some friend. Leave him I shall tend to him"
Legend drops Inuyasha harshly on the ground. He groans in pain as he hits the floor.
"and teach him not to be so head-long" he then heads over to Miroku's resting spot: a large rock near a river.
"shouldn't you be grouping Songo by now" he greets him with.
"I am appalled you'd say such a thing" Miroku calls back "I am a monk"
"that doesn't seem to stop you" he says with a chuckle. Miroku starts the conversation with "I am intrigued that you are able to wield the skills of the Holy Order yet be as benevolent as you are"
"well the order does know that I am relentless but they know it's just my father's curse. I asked told them that the mystic sutra's they use can help keep it at bay so they allowed limited use of them. I can only heal other's or myself with them. I could teach you if you'd like?"
"that would be wonderful" Miroku says half dead. "but I am already a Buddhist monk. I would anger or lord"
"I see. But there will come a time when I won't be able to use this on my self when the curse takes it's toll so just believe and you my just be able to" he then leaves to see Songo. He finds her training in the field where he and Inuyasha were. We walks toward her when her boomerang cuts right out in front of him. Songo quickly realises that he is there. "oh, I'm sorry" she says mouth behind her hand realising he could have been killed.
"no need. You just helped me remember to keep my eyes open" he then softly grabs her hand and kisses it. Songo blushes and quickly brings her hand back. "why are you here?" she asks still a little embarrassed.
"I am here just to see you my sweet" he says suavely "you beauty just can't be ignored" he then says. "if you don't but that, then I just came to help you train"
"oh" she says flattered. "well alright"
"your training is best done with moving targets so I will volunteer to be the target. Don't worry I will be okay"
"are you sure?" she asks fearfully "I am pretty good with this"
"yes I will. Just think I'm your enemy. Or I might just have to turn" he says with a little evil in his voice.
He runs to the shatters of various jars and calls for her attack. Songo lightly replies with throwing her weapon. Legend prepares for impact and holds his shield up. The Hiraikotsu whirls toward him. He sees that she did not put all that much effort into it. He quickly puts his shield aside and grabs the Hiraikotsu and throws it back as hard as he can. Songo in shock that he did this is unable to dodge in time. I direct hit to her stomach knocks her unconscious. "oh no" Legend says fearfully. "I'd best take care of her" he walks over to her and applies medical attention far greater to that of Kagomes. Meanwhile Miroku whom was watching from the start gets an idea. "I know I should not lie but" he quickly prays for forgiveness and heads into the village. "Kagome, Inuyasha. Quickly come to the field or 'friends' has done something terrible to Songo" Kagome and Inuyasha quickly follow after Miroku. He leads them to the field to see Legend with Songo in his arms. "I can explain everything"
Miroku cuts in before he could finish. "this was your plan all along, wasn't it! To kill all of us. I can't believe you were once a priest!" he quickly goes to use the wind tunnel but Legend cuts in. "your anger will kill a friend. Miroku if you use that then Songo will come with me"
"I don't think so" he says giving Inuyasha a small signal to grabs Songo.
Legend holds his hand out and Songo floats mysteriously over to them. "here. Now try your best monk. I haven't seen you in combat!" he says trying to start a fight.
"you won't be able to" Miroku says back. "Wind Tunnel!" the trees and earth start to get sucked up instantly. Legend aware of it's power used in previous encounters was caught at shock. "damn! It's so much stronger then before. I'm slipping" Legend inches forth little by little.
Miroku surprised at his resistance. "you won't win just stop trying to escape"
"who's trying! This is just my weight holding me here! I could easily escape!"
"oh yeah. Just try it!" he says provoking him
"alright!" he quickly grabs his shield and creates a counter wind with it. Nullifying the Wind tunnels effect. "there. Now let me explain. Me and Songo where brushing up on here skills when I had tried to teach her something. I told her not to hold back but she did and I just wanted to counter showing that if she does not try with all her might that may happen but I guess I use a little to mush strength"
"then why where you kissing her hand?" Miroku asks
Legend surprised that Miroku knew said "I-It was a test t-to see if she would hold back if I had made a move of love. How did you know any way monk! You were spying on us?"
"I was just curious on how you skill compared to hers, is all"
"right" he says sarcastically "you just had judgements on how friendly I truly am" the mark appears on his forehead "it's nice to know my friends will SPY on me!" he quickly draws his sword and lunges at Miroku. "ahh. What the… the mark he's not in control. Every one fight he's not himself. Inuyasha you should stay back"
"what! A little injury like this won't stop me!" Inuyasha says as he enter the field "come on creep" he says as he draws the Tetsuseiga and goes for a finishing blow. Legends eyes just widen in anger and look at Inuyasha. He stop in mid-air and Legend goes to kill him but Kagome's arrow hits him dead in the arm. Legend howls in pain. He tries to pulls the arrow but the sacred energy burns him badly. He quickly looks at Kagome and darts at her releasing Inuyasha. "why you, leave her alone!" he bellows as he calls the Wind Scar. It follows quickly behind Legend but before it hits him he quickly jumps out of the way. Now the attack heads straight for Kagome. "no!" Inuyasha screams at the mistake. He quickly tries to intercept it but Legend strikes him down. But then a loud heart beat is heard. Legend holds his chest as though suffering a heart attack. He holds his head and screams in terror. He then throws his shield in the ground in front of Kagome. The blast bounds of it and dissipates in to the air. Legend still in pain flails heavily. Inuyasha quickly thrust his sword into Legends arm. He stops flailing and seems to die right there. Everyone recuperates and looks at him. "he is dangerous with that curse. I thought he said that his sutras hold him?"
"yes" Inuyasha agrees "but he did say that when extreme amounts of negative feelings fill his body he transforms. Perhaps there is a way we can stop that" Inuyasha states
"I can help him with that" I voice calls from the forest.
Miroku perks up at the voice. "that sounds like a women" he says. He quickly turns around and looks a figure in the forest stands there.
