Chapter 8:
Lina woke up to a dark cold room. She surveyed the room and noticed how empty it was. The walls were painted an off white color. A few pictures were on the wall of ancient battles. The only things that were on the floor were a blue mat, which Lina had been sleeping on, and a coffee table with pillows surrounding it. Needless to say the room was pretty bare.
After Lina had a few minutes to study the room the sliding doors opened and Naraku appeared. Lina studied the man who entered the room. He wore his usual Karate like purple clothes. She even thought he was handsome with his raven colored hair and ebony eyes.
"Good to see you're awake," said Naraku.
Lina was healed, but still fairly weak from her battle with the frog demon, Gimco, but she still spoke, "What do you want with me?"
Lina did not try to get up she merely stayed lying down and asked this as she looked up at the ceiling. Naraku looked her over before speaking.
"You could use some more rest before I tell you my plan. Get some sleep and I will have Kagura get you some food later."
Lina nodded and drifted back into the realm of dreams. Naraku exited the room and went on with his plans.
When Lina woke up three hours later there were some hot soup and a glass of water sitting near her. She slowly came to a sitting position and drank some of the water that one of Naraku servants had left her. The slowly she ate the soup. When she was finished the soup the double doors opened and a child with hair as white as snow walked into the room.
The young girl with white hair picked up Lina's dirty dishes and quietly took them away. As she did Lina said thank you. Then she laid herself back down, and stared at the ceiling waiting Naraku's presents.
After about thirty minutes of staring at the ceiling and reflecting on her life Naraku came in.
"Now down to business," said Naraku as he pulled a pillow near Lina's mat.
"So, what do you want with me," asked Lina as her eyes were still focused on the ceiling.
"Straight to the point aren't we Lina?"
Lina said nothing and so Naraku continued.
"I have brought you here in hope that you could help me with something," said the half demon.
"And what would that be," asked Lina.
"Oh nothing really, just help me to obtaining the remaining jewel shards from Inuyasha's group," he answered.
Lina turned to him and said, "I thought such a powerful being such as your-self could do that with out the assistants of a little girl."
Naraku said nothing for a minute, "Yes, but why go to so much trouble when you can have someone else do it for you?"
"Point taken. So, why do you want the jewel shards?"
"The answer is simple. I want to become a full demon," was his reply.
Lina nodded.
"So are you willing to help me," asked Naraku.
Lina closed her eyes and didn't say anything for a minute. "It would appear that I don't have a choice in the matter. I can't fill any of my magical power and I have a feeling you're the reason for it,"
"You are correct. Don't worry when you need your powers to complete my task they will work. Well, I am glad we could come to a compromise. Since night is upon us and you could still use some more rest before facing Inuyasha and his group we will start tomorrow," said Naraku.
Naraku left Lina to dwell on tomorrow before she went to sleep.
Scene change.
Inuyasha and the rest of the group had made there way through the forest all day, and still where not any closer to finding Lina. As the sun began to set Inuyasha and his group made camp.
"AH we've been walking all day and still aren't any closer to finding Naraku or Lina," said an irritated Inuyasha.
Xellos kept smiling and said nothing. He felt Lina's presence and knew they would see Lina tomorrow.
"Don't worry Inuyasha I'm sure we'll find Lina soon," said a confident Kagome.
"Yeah she's right," said Sango.
"Besides I am just as anxious as finding Lina as the rest of us are, but we'll have a better chance of finding her tomorrow after a good nights rest," said Miroku as he ate the diner Kagome and Sango had just passed out to everyone.
"What do you think about the situation Mr. Xellos," asked Kohaku a silent Xellos.
Xellos smiled and answer, "Will find her tomorrow that I am sure of."
After the group had finished dinner they stayed up, and talked for about an hour. Then they all went to bed.
Scene change
Lina woke up bright and early in Naraku's castle. She was healed, and ready for the day. She signed and thought today is the day I am going to have to fight my friends over some stupid jewel shard that I was supposed to help them obtain. Some Knight I'm turning out to be I got beat by a lesser demon that I should have easily killed.
A voice out of no where spoke to Lina mentally.
"Oh Lina don't get down on yourself. I say this couldn't have turned out any better if I had planned it myself," said a famine voice.
"L-samma is that you," asked Lina.
"Duh who else would it be? Perhaps you were hoping it was you lover Xellos," replied
L-sama.
"Hey! Xellos is not my lover, although I wouldn't mind him being that. Damn I forgot I was talking to you telepathically," said Lina.
L-samma laughed and said, "Anyways the reason why I am talking with you is it seems you're a little stressed."
Lina laughed mentally and said, "That would be an understatement, but how can you talk to me, and what where you saying when you said you couldn't have planned this better?"
"First, I can talk to you because when I made you my knight we have a link, where if I need to speak with you I can. And about the plan I was talking about you help Naraku. He goes all demony then you get Inuyasha's gang to help kill him. Oh, and the battle with Naraku you're not allowed to interfere, and neither is Xellos," said L-samma.
"Why not? He's using me to help him obtain the jewel shards," complained Lina because she wasn't allowed to kill Naraku.
"Because I said so," said L-samma in an irritated voice.
"Fine," Lina huffed. The last thing Lina wanted was an angry god.
The telepathic link was severed just as Naraku entered the room.
"Are you ready Lina," asked Naraku.
"As ready as I'll ever be," was Lina's reply.
Naraku nodded and Lina and they left for their destination.
Scene change
Inuyasha and his group had just finished breakfast, and finished packing up camp.
"Look like another bright and beautiful day," said Shippo.
"Yup, a perfect day to find Miss Lina," said Kohaku.
"Well enough yammering let's go guys," said Inuyasha.
The group complied and set out on their journey. About five minutes later there was rustling in the bushes.
Inuyasha and his group stopped. Inuyasha readied his sword for whatever was to come out of the bushes. To his surprise it was his older brother Sesshoumaru.
Inuyasha and his group stared at the dog demon dumb founded. Inuyasha was the first to get over the surprise and spoke, "What the hell are you doing here Sesshoumaru?"
"I could ask you the same thing little brother," said an emotionless Sesshoumaru.
"Well, I asked you first. What are you doing here," asked Inuyasha as he put his sword away.
"Inuyasha are you always so childish. I thought being with humans would have made you grow up, but it would appear not," said Sesshoumaru.
"You don't have any room to talk. I see you have a human that follows you around. Why anyone would follow an arrogant bastard like you is beyond me," replied Inuyasha.
Before Sesshoumaru could make a comeback Kagome intervened. She did not want to see the two brothers get into a dog fight.
"Sesshoumaru why are you traveling in the forest," asked a curious Kagome.
Sesshoumaru turned to Kagome and said, "I followed Naraku's scent it's all over the place."
Clap Clap "Bravo Bravo. I must say I am flattered that the Lord of the West came all the way to find me," said Naraku as he descended out of the heavens.
Lina was the only one with him. The two landed on to the grown of the forest.
"Lina what are you doing helping this half demon," asked Sesshoumaru.
Lina said nothing and gave Xellos a cocky smile. Then she telepathically sent him a message.
I have the situation under control. L-samma said not to interfere.
Xellos did not reply he just merely nodded.
"Inuyasha I suggest you hand over the jewel shards or I will be forced to kill you," said Lina.
Inuyasha laughed, "Like hell I am going to hand them over. We may have been friends for the past few months, but that doesn't mean I am going to give into you."
Xellos studied the situation. He knew Lina couldn't kill Inuyasha. I mean she could, but she wasn't suppose to.
It looks like I'll have to get involve just to save time. I am ready to get out of this stupid world, thought Xellos.
While, everyone's attention was diverted to Inuyasha and Lina, Xellos proceed in walking over to Kagome, and knocked her out. He then proceeded in taking the jewel shards.
"As much as I would love to see Lina kick your ass Inuyasha, I must say I am growing bored with this world," said Xellos.
Lina and the rest of the group turned to look at Xellos.
Xellos teleported behind Lina and handed Naraku the jewel shards. With that the Lina, and Xellos teleported away from Naraku and stood with Inuyasha, and his group, and waited to see what would transpire.
The jewel shards became one and formed into a black jewel. The sky started to turn black and the clouds became blood red. Lighting lit up the sky, and the thunder roared through the heavens. The wind howled like never before. It seemed like the end of the world as Inuyasha and his friends watched Naraku consume the jewel. Naraku's whole body began to glow yellow. The hundreds of demon he had consumed over the years appeared to cover his body. Then suddenly a white glow covered the forest, and Naraku emerged as his true form.
There standing in what used to be a once beautiful forest was not a man, but a full demon. Naraku hadn't changed to much accepted for the fact his eyes glowed red, and his ears were pointed. Also, out of his back there were two dragon like wings. His left was claw like and his right that of a normal humans. Now a burnt forest lay in ashes in the land that was about to become the final battle between Inuyasha and his friends.
End of chapter 8.
A/N: Sorry it sucked I just got bored and was ready for the chapter to be over. I know I took the easy way out, but I only want to write one battle scene. Besides if you haven't noticed battle scenes aren't my thing. I know that's a crappy excuse, anyways next chapters my last. Find out what happens to Naraku, and what this Xellos is asking Lina? Hoped you liked it and chapter 9 is going to kick butt!
