Chapter 16

"Well, well. Inuyasha." She said, taking a few steps down the steps that lead to the door.

They all spun around. "Kagura." Inuyasha said through clenched teeth and drew the Tetsusaiga. He held the now transformed fang infront of himself battle ready. "I should have known I'd see you here."

"Come to rescue the human girl I suppose." Kagura said calmly, taking a few steps closer to the group. Kagome and Ranma's eyes widened.

Ranma stepped up beside Inuyasha. "Akane! What have you done with her?" He demanded of Kagura.

Inuyasha looked sideways at Ranma. "Stay outta my way. I'll save the girl once I get through her."

"I can save Akane by myself." Ranma yelled at the hanyou.

"Hmmm, now that it's been mentioned, how did he manage to keep up with us?" Sango asked quietly of Miroku, Kagome and Shippo who were standing beside her. "I mean, maybe he can save Akane by himself."

"Yeah. Actually, that's a good question. How did he manage to keep up with Inuyasha?" Kagome said thoughtfully.

"I've had enough of this." Kagura said in a bored tone and flipped her fan out infront of her. A powerful gust of wind was sent towards Inuyasha and Ranma. Both dodged the attack.

Sango, Miroku, Shippo, Kagome and Kirara all relocated to a safer spot away from the battleground. "I hope Ranma will be all right." Kagome watched as both Inuyasha and Ranma regained their fighting stances.

"I'm sure he'll be fine. He seems to think he can handle it. Besides, he has amazing speed." Sango rested a comforting hand on Kagome's shoulder.

"That's right." Miroku said.

"Don't you touch me." Kagome looked at him suspiciously. Miroku hung his head.

Inuyasha was next to attack. Running at Kagura he swung Tetsusaiga and shouted, "Wind Scar!" Kagura jumped out of the way of Inuyasha's attack and sent another blast of powerful wind in his direction. Ranma stayed where he was and stared in awe at Inuyasha's power before realizing that he was supposed to be saving Akane.

"Right." He said to himself. He looked around and saw the door that Kagura came out of. "Akane must be in there somewhere." He started to run towards but was cut off by blade-like blasts of wind.

"Dance of Blades." Kagura waved her fan at Ranma again sending out her attack.

Noticing Kagura was distracted by Ranma, Inuyasha jumped up behind her and swung Tetsusaiga. Kagura evaded just in time and Inuyasha landed infront of Ranma. "Damnit, I missed."

Ranma took his chance and ran inside the building. He ran the one hallway and looked in every room he could find. They were all empty. He kept running, "Akane! Akane!" He looked in yet another room but found nothing. He ran back out preparing to continue down the hall but stopped when he saw a little girl standing not to far infront him. Her pure white hair blew in the non-existent wind and she held a mirror out infront of her.

The mirror gave off a faint glowing effect and Ranma couldn't turn his eyes away.

"You're soul is mine."
