Yes, Reaka, you can have my quote, i got plenty of them.
Nysoku, you're weird.
And what's with all the hate, guys? I'm updating as soon as i get to a computer, so there aint no reason to be haiting. I've got about four more updates on the way. It's not like yall have to wait another two weeks for the next chapter. OKAY? Sheesh.
Ps: We're over a hundred reviews! It's a miracle! Yayness! I am one happy camper. Thank you all soo much.
The swirling mist parted, suddenly, and i caught a glimpse of the scene. "No! Kaouru!" I yelled, running headlong into the stinging miasma, Tetsuaiga glowing white as it parted from it's sheath.
Kaouru was being held in the air, her form was limp and blood escaped her parted lips to trail down her chin and land on the wood-like tentacle that penetrated her stomach.
She turned her head toward me, pain soo deep in her eyes it made me want to cry. "Daddy" She choked on the word.
My whole world shattered as her body was hurled toward me. I caught her, bringing her close to my chest. I stroked her cheek, everything else in the world was irrelevant now. "Don't die, okay?" I pleaded with her and Kami-sama. "Please don't die." I begged, holding her close.
Then something intruded in my mind. Something i had hoped to never see again. I looked up into the face of my first enemy. The reason why I lost my first love, and gained my second. The reason why Kaouru was here.
"Naraku." The name came from my throat in a snarling growl.
"She's almost your twin, inuyasha. I think i'll take her for my own." He said, his face twisting into a sadistic grin.
"Fuck you." I snarled laying my daughter down. "Sesshomaru, take care of Kaouru." I yelled to my brother.
Sesshomaru was beside us now, glaring down at the beastial form of Naraku. "Take her home, brother. He's mine." He said, his eyes glowing red.
I picked her up and took her to the inn. Laid her beside Hige. Rei took one look at her and ran out the door.
Sesshomaru transformed halfway, his face returned to the emotionless mask that it had been. "For harming her, You will die!" He growled, his fangs lengthening as well as his claws.
He moved to attack and Naraku disappeared.
Startled, he reverted back to his normal form. He saw Rei on top of Naraku, Slashing at the half demon's face. "Die!" Rei snarled, his eyes flaring red. He dug his hand into Naraku's face, digging out the demon's eyes, tearing off the nose, Turning it into a disfigured picture of mutilation before he ripped out Naraku's throat.
Kicking the thing, Rei tossed it onto a spiked limb on a nearby tree.
Huffing, rei collapsed to his knees, The red rain mixing with tears of blood. He punched the ground, sending shock waves through the earth. Sesshomaru and inuyasha both heard the sickening crack of breaking knuckles as the boy hit the ground again and again before he covered up his head as his face buried into the ground. Sobs shook his small body.
Kaouru woke to the sound of pounding rain and thunder. She stood slowly, ignoring the protests from her family. She had to find her father. She had to find Rei.
"Daddy?" Her own voice was weak in her ears.
"Kaouru! Don't move. You're hurt. Here." Her father picked her up, cradling her in his arms.
"Daddy, where's Rei?" She asked, her brows furrowing together in confusion and pain.
"He's outside with Sesshomaru." Inuyasha said, trying to carry her back inside.
Sqwirming, she tried to get him to set her down. "daddy, I'm not a baby. I can walk." She said, sqwirming again.
Shaking his head, he set her on her feet.
Taking a step, she walked out into the thinning red rain. She saw Rei in a crouched position, Sesshomaru standing over him.
"Rei?" she whispered, stumbling toward him. Her legs gave out under her as she got to his side. "Rei? Are you okay?" she asked, Her voice filled with worry.
He lifted his head, startled. "K..kaouru? You...You're alive!" He tried to grab her shoulders but his hands failed to cooperate.
She took his hands in her own. "Your hands are broke." she said, staring down at them. Her hands started to glow and the bones protruding through his skin receded, returning to their former positions. "All better." she said affermatively. Happy with her work.
"You're hurt bad, Kaouru. Please, Let me help you inside." He said, lifting her.
Sesshomaru watched this, refraining himself from snatching her away into the inn to be cared for by himself. She needed to do this, though.
When Rei lifted her in his own arms and carried her inside, he let out a sigh of releif. Then his attention focused on the mutilated figure on the tree. he decided he would leave it there until morning.
Alright, guys. I'm leaving it there for now.
Mutilation is an art. -me.
