'thoughts'


...

Sesshomaru flew through the woods, eyes blazing with anger. 'How dare Naraku play such a trick on me?' He thought in rage. 'He will pay with his life. I will kill him for hurting Rin and Tea.'

As Naraku's scent strengthened, sesshomaru knew he was close to the castle. He increased his pace and soon stood before the castle where the hideous demon resided. Sesshomaru expected Kaugra to be there to stop him, but no one greeted him. He stepped forward and suddenly, hundreds of demons attacked him. It seemed like Naraku had prepared quite a welcoming party for him. Too bad it would end up being a funeral gathering for him. Sesshomaru slashed the demons with his claws and sword. The sooner he was finished with them, the sooner he could get to Naraku.

The gang also finally approached the location. Inuyasha was running, along with Kouga who had joined them. Miroku was sitting on Kirara with Sango. Yami, Bakura, and Joey were sitting on the curse of dragon, and Kaiba sat on his blue eyes alone. Since Kaiba was the highest of them all, he could see what was up ahead.

"There is a group of demons ahead." He informed the others.

"Naraku must be trying to keep Sesshomaru away from the castle." Miroku said.

"We must hurry. He may need our help." Yami said and they increased their pace.


Sesshomaru was getting tired to killing the weak demons. He knew they were no match for him and Naraku knew that as well. Their purpose was to delay him, possibly providing Naraku with the chance to escape. This irritated Sesshomaru. It was time to end this and let Naraku know who he was dealing with. Sesshomaru closed his eyes and the air around him started to spin like a tornado. The demons stopped their attack and moved back in fear. Immense amount of energy radiated from the tornado and the demons knew what was coming. They started to run away in all directions to save their lives but never got a chance. Sesshomaru's eyes opened and all the energy around him engulfed the area in a deafening explosion. When the smoke cleared, not even small bits of demons could be recognized. Everything had been incinerated.

With that done, Sesshomaru continued towards the castle, but stopped some distance away. The gang approached him and stood behind him. He didn't bother to even glance at them to acknowledge their presence. He drew his sword and slashed in the air. A white blast of energy moved towards the castle and just as Sesshomaru had expected, it hit the barrier, forming an small opening. Sesshomaru quickly dashed forward and entered through the opening before it closed again. Then, without stopping for a second, he walked forward.

"Damn that Sesshomaru. He did that on purpose. He thinks he is so cool and powerful but I'll show him." Inuyasha said grumpily and drew tetsaiga. He charged towards the barrier and struck it, but nothing happened.

"What the hell? It should have been destroyed." Inuyasha said, completely shocked.

"It's Naraku's barrier you stupid mutt. A half-demon like you can't break it." Kouga said.

"Oh yeah? Maybe I should break you instead." Inuyasha said turning to face Kouga. Both growled but Sango interrupted them.

"You can fight later. Right now, we have to figure out a way to enter the castle."

"Blue Eyes, attack." From above them, Kaiba yelled. The beast aimed a huge lightening blast at the barrier but still no use. They all tried one by one but the barrier wasn't even scratched. Inside, they could see Sesshomaru fighting more demons.

"This is not working." Joey said, hopelessly.

"Because we are attacking it individually. If we attack it together, we may be able to break it." Yami suggested.

"Let's try that." Bakura said. "Okay dark Necrofear, attack." He commanded his monster.

"Jinzo attack." Joey yelled.

"You too Dark Magician." Yami said.

"Blue Eyes, white lightening attack." Kaiba yelled.

"Wind scar." Inuyasha said. All these attacks hit the barrier at one spot and it cracked, forming a small opening. Before it could reform or reseal again, the gang rushed in.

"I knew we could do it." Joey said happily.

By that time, sesshomaru had destroyed every one of Naraku's demons. He was tired of Naraku's games.

"Naraku, step outside and face your demise." He said. A dark chuckle filled the air.

"Why don't you find me lord Sesshomaru?" Naraku said. "Destroy the castle and you will destroy me with it." But Sesshomaru couldn't do that. Tea was somewhere in the castle and an attack might hurt her. Naraku knew that and was using it to his advantage.

"Come out you slime ball. We are here to kick your ass. Face us you coward." Joey yelled.

"Are you scared now that you know you are going to die?" Inuyasha taunted. Naraku laughed in response.

"I am not here to play games Naraku. Prolonging your death will only make it more slow and painful." Sesshomaru warned.

"Such anger. Why? Is it because you realized that you are no different then your half-demon brother? You have been fooled like him, and with the same trick too. You really are brothers." Naraku voice rang through, still laughing. Sesshomaru's anger increased, if that was even possible.

"Never compare me to that weakling." Sesshomaru said in a venomous tone. Inuyasha grumbled behind him, but Sesshomaru paid no attention. Naraku laughed again and finally appeared before them. He wasn't wearing the baboon skin this time, but was in his real form.

"Hello Lord Sesshomaru. It's been a long time since we faced each other." Naraku said with a smirk on his face.

"Where is Tea?" Sesshomaru demanded.

"She is inside. Are you here to take her with you? I don't think she wants to come." Naraku said coyly.

"And why won't she?" Joey asked.

"She has had a change of heart and would rather stay here, with me." Naraku replied.

"Tea would never want to be near someone like you." Yami declared.

"I knew you wouldn't believe me so I will call her out here. Then she can tell you herself." Naraku said and Tea appeared from the castle. She steadily walked towards them until she stood besides Naraku.

"Tea, are you okay? What did that creep did to you?" Joey asked. Tea glared at them.

"Don't say anything about Naraku." She said angrily, shocking everyone.

"What the hell are you saying?" Kaiba asked, not believing his ears.

"I am tired of being with you. You all lie to me. And you Sesshomaru, you nearly killed me. It was Naraku who saved me." Tea said.

"No Tea, it was Naraku who tricked you. He took the shape of Sesshomaru to trick you." Miroku explained to her.

"You expect me to believe that? I know this is another one of your lies." Tea stubbornly said.

"Gardner, he has messed with your mind. Snap out of it." Kaiba said.

"I am perfectly fine. And I am not leaving him. I love him." She said, holding Naraku's arm in a loving manner.

"WHAT?" Everyone exclaimed in shock, everyone except Sesshomaru.

"Have you lost your mind?" Inuyasha yelled.

"No, but I have lost my heart to him. I love him and nothing is going to change that." Tea said determinedly.

"Release her of your control Naraku. I know you took over her mind." Joey said, remembering Battle City and Marik.

"What are you saying? Mind control?" Kouga muttered.

"He took over her mind and told her to say all this." Joey explained. That had to be it.

"But look at her eyes joey, they are not blank. They are the same. She is in control of her senses and knows what she is saying." Yami said.

"But then why would she say all that?" Bakura wondered.

"I don't know and I don't care. We are gonna free her and kill Naraku." Inuyasha said.

"Tea, get away from him." Sesshomaru ordered her, but she only held on tightly.

"No, I'm not leaving him." She said. Naraku wrapped his arm around her waist possessively and smirked.

"Seems to me that she has made her decision. And a wise one too." He said and his tongue came out to lick her neck. Tea closed her eyes in pleasure. This angered Sesshomaru and the gang to no extent.

"Naraku." Sesshomaru yelled, finally losing his patience, and attacked him with this sword. His blast moved towards Naraku who didn't move. A smirk formed on his lips as Tea stood before hit to shield him. Everyone's eyes became wide. Tea was going to be hit with Sesshomaru's attack and Naraku wasn't going to do anything about it.

"Blue Eyes, go." Kaiba yelled before the blast hit Tea. With lightening speed, Blue Eyes moved from Kaiba's side and jumped in front of the attach, getting destroyed in an instant.

"Think before you do anything rash Sesshomaru. Tea's life is at stake here." Yami yelled to the demon lord.

"What can we do? If we attack Naraku, Tea will defend him and we can't hurt her." Miroku said.

"Damn that Naraku. He made sure he is safe." Inuyasha grumbled.

"He is low, using a girl as a shield." Kaiba spat in disgust.

"There must be some way we can kill him without hurting Tea." Bakura thought desperately.

"How did he do that to Tea? She is not naïve and wouldn't believe his lies. Then what is going on?" Yami wondered.

Suddenly, an arrow, glowing pink, shot past them and hit Tea in the back.

"No, Tea." Joey yelled as she fell on the ground.

"Kagome?" Miroku wondered.

"Kikyo." Inuyasha said staring at the priestess holding the bow.

...


So, Kikyo showed up and she hit Tea? What's gonna happen next? Review and I'll tell you.
