Chapter IV
"Brotherly Love"
Charha watched as Inuyasha charged towards his brother. Tetsusaiga glowed a passionate red, as it clashed with toukijin. The two swords were evenly matched but both brothers wouldn't give up, causing Inuyasha to swing his free fist at his brother's face. Sesshoumaru's base gave out causing him to falter from his stance. Sesshoumaru now on the defensive had to find a way to knock his brother back and gain control of the situation. Toukijin sent off a powerful and demonic force propelling Inuyasha into the side of a tree as he fought to find away to defend himself. The tetsusaiga spiraled off into the yonder of the dark forest, leaving Inuyasha unarmed. Sometimes toukijin would prove useless but like Sesshoumaru the sword disliked his brother enough to protect its owner and allow him to hold the offensive.
His brother's form dropped to the ground and lay there still for a few moments not even breathing but Sesshoumaru knew better and could feel his brother's blood stir. Inuyasha's blood started pulse as his youkai blood began to overtake what control he did have over himself. Sesshoumaru with haste noticed this change in his brother's blood by peering into the emotionless crimson eyes of Inuyasha.
Sesshoumaru held his ground as he watched his brother stand but what happened next he did not expect. Inuyasha's gaze fell upon the tree that his mate hid behind clutching the small mistune pup in fear. Inuyasha was no longer fighting his brother but instead he was after his prey…
…Sesshoumaru's mate, Charha.
In a flash of red he stood towering before her his eyes a red with two crimson red markings to show his youkai blood drawn on either cheek, and she did fear him not for her life but for Shippou's. She stood from her once crouched seat staring deep into his eyes, crying out the only word she could think off. "SIT."
He crashed face first into the ground as she grabbed the kit pup and ran for Sesshoumaru, but she wasn't fast enough and Inuyasha caught her by the white collar of her kimono. He turned her trembling body around making her face him. Her eyes caught his red ones and she knew there was no soul behind them, nothing but a cold hunters gaze show.
A scream escaped her mouth as she hung there holding Shippou even closer to her chest. His body was shaking slightly as he yelled "Fox Fire." , Making Inuyasha drop them. She landed unevenly but managed to stay on her feet to run behind Sesshoumaru.
The lord's face now held a scowl which was not like him as he listened to his mates breathing become shakier behind him. "Did that half breed hurt you?" he asked his eyes still on Inuyasha.
She looked up at him and softly answered. "Hai." Inuyasha dashed forward claws stretched out ready for an attack and Sesshoumaru readied himself in a defensive stance instead of a fighting one.
Charha watched from behind her mate not sure whose side to be on. Sesshoumaru had taken her innocence from her and that was unforgivable. Inuyasha on the other hand had wanted to save her from his brother but was rude and uncompassionate towards her. Not only was he guilty of that but minutes earlier he had attacked her.
She couldn't come up with an answer and hadn't known either long enough to make a decision but what she did know was Inuyasha wanted her dead at that moment. Her mind raced as she thought over scenarios and not one of them could stop both brothers from fighting one another.
'Scenario one: Sit Inuyasha till the cows come home. No, that's not going to stop Sesshoumaru from slicing and dicing Inuyasha while he is down. Scenario two: Sit Inuyasha and seduce Sesshoumaru. No Inuyasha will get up be twice as pissed and Sesshoumaru will drag me back to his castle by my hair. Scenario Three: Play dead. Well we're screwed.' She thought looking back down at Shippou's trembling form.
"Get back woman." She heard Sesshoumaru growl. She slowly backed away watching Inuyasha pounce Sesshoumaru. There was a muffled yell and a high pitched cry which caused Charha to put Shippou down and run back out to aid the hurt brother whom ever it was.
She reached them only to see Inuyasha lift his head and growl at her blood dripping from his fangs. "Inuyasha you don't want to do this." She pleaded as he stood from his brother limp form. "Please Inuyasha I know you're in there. Don't do this don't hurt me." She cried luring him away from Sesshoumaru's body.
The lord was conscious but the rip in his neck wasn't helping him out as he tried to aid his mate. He sat up dazed trying to focus on the two retreating figures. His body quavered slightly as he got to his feet just in time to see Inuyasha lurch forward at his mate. At the sight he instinctively put his body between his brother and his mate.
Charha watched an orb of white appear before her and Inuyasha leap on it. She lost vision as the idea of Sesshoumaru sacrificing himself for her began to pour through her mind. Her body tensed as the feeling of blindness washed over her and she felt her soul and body split.
A bright white light radiated from her and swept through the forest around them. Inuyasha's body was ripped from Sesshoumaru's and slammed to the forest floor at the light poured past them. Sesshoumaru who was now wounded beyond the point of safe healing turned to see the light stream out of her as he slumped down to his knees in pain.
She turned her gaze to him and he could see the sorrow at that moment fill her eyes. His muscles were becoming lax and limp from fatique as he watched her walk to him with what he assumed to be the light of an angel flowing around her. She kneeled down looking deep into his golden eyes tears already formed beneath her own and circled her arms around him.
The feeling swept over him as she held him, security, love, and warmth. She was healing him as she gradually let her power pullback within her. He watched this amazing feat take place as he felt the tainted power pull back through him into her. She was using her own life energy to heal and save him by staving off the under worlds minions and heal him in the process, she was the myou megami. She was giving him, her own life.
