Chapter 8
it had taken the inu-group three days to reach one of the villages that was attacked by this so called demon that Myouga had told them about, the village looked like a herd of demons went through here not just one for their were dead bodies every where that were being buried one after the other, the group just stood there in disgust at what one demon could do with the right motivation being the jewel shards.
"we better go help these people lay their fallen to rest and see if we can restore their homes before we ask any questions"
Miroku said walking forward.
"fine" Inuyasha said as the rest of the group followed Miroku.
it had taken until supper time to burry (sry not sure how to spell it) all the dead and rebuild some of the huts before the inu-group could ask any questions about the demon that attacked them.
they were sitting in the elder of the village's hut that they had rebuilt first eating supper.
"so tell us about this demon that attacked your villages elder?" asked Miroku.
"it started three days ago two villages down from this one, it seemed it didn't want to kill them; but hurt them as a warning" said the elder.
"what do you mean a warning?" asked Kagome.
"a warning that if they didn't tell the demon where the miko of the jewel shards was that their next village wouldn't be so lucky" replied the elder.
"and did the villagers say anything?" asked Sango.
"they told them that they didn't know who this miko of the jewel shards was and that answer didn't sit well withthe demon" said the elder.
"what did the demon do after he got that kind of answer?" Miroku asked.
"the demon attacked the village next to us with another warning; but this timehe had killed 10 of the villagers" the elder replied.
"and that's how we ended up at your village in ruins and dead laying around; because the two warnings weren't enough for this demon am i correct" asked Miroku.
"yes that is correct and also the demon said he will be back tonight since this attack happened this morning and also what is weird the demon mentioned aname that was never said to the other villages" said the elder.
"what name would that be elder?" asked Kagome.
"a half-breed named Tameka and this is how he said it and i wondered why he would mention it" the elder said.
"that is weird" said Shippo.
"also elder do you know what kind of demon that attacked you?" asked Miroku.
"you don't need to answer that old man i can smell it coming this way and for your answer Miroku it's a stinking ogre" said Inuyasha as he got up and walked outside the hut to wait for the demon and for the others to follow.
once the group was outside and the villagers were in a safe place away from the battle the ogre finally arrived knocking down some of the rebuilt huts on his way to where the inu-group stood ready to fight.
"where is she?" the ogre asked looking straight at the inu-group with blood thirst in his eyes.
"you talking about me demon" said Kagome who had her bow and arrow ready to shoot down the demon if needed.
"ahh you must be the miko of the jewel shards i can sense a few on you give them to me" the ogre said comeing closer to them.
"over my dead body you will" answered Inuyasha as he brought out tetsusaiga infront of him.
'sniff' "hmm i see your here too and alive as well half-breed i guess i didn't do a good enough job in the past since your standing here alive" smirked the ogre looking straight at Tameka.
"what do you mean didn't do a good enough job in the past?" Inuyasha said getting pissed.
"it means i was strong enough not to die when he tried to kill me in the past" i answered in a low voice
"you've got to be kidding me Tameka" said Inuyasha.
"no i'm not Inuyasha" i whimpered shaking in my spot; because i was actually scared that this demon might finish the job this time.
"well he's not going to get away with hurting you if i can help it" Inuyasha said running at the ogre yelling a question "WHERE IS THE JEWEL SHARDS KAGOME?"
"THEY ARE BOTH IN HIS NECK INUYASHA AND BE CAREFUL" she yelled back
"KEH I'M ALWAYS CAREFUL" he said as wind swirled around the sword and was brought down as he called out "WIND SCAR" and the ogre was no more; but dust that got carried away by the wind. "hmph that was easy" he said putting his sword away and picking up the two jewel shards to hand over to Kagome to purify and the group decided to stay the night and leave in the morning for their destination to defeat Naraku.
