The Flowers That Keep Us Alive
OMG IT'S MY FREAKING BIRTHDAY OCTOBER THIRD! Hehehh... so... I get to write my butt off for my birthday? Fun, fun, fun... o-O
I don't own Inu-tachi. And I'm 0.00000000 percent closer to owning Tessaiga. And I am hating this. I need it. NOWWW!
READ: Umm... I'm kind of forgetting the point of me putting this here.
Whateverrrrrrrr...
"Sesshoumaru...?" Kagome asked with concern. Sesshoumaru was never a good thing for Inuyasha. And now... if it was really him putting off that aura... he's worse than ever before. Would Inuyasha be able to take it? Would we make it out alive?
"I smell him," he stopped as soon as he said that, and seemed to give motions as for Kagome to get off. "Run, Kagome, I don't want him to get you..."
"I already said I wouldn't!" She did, however, get off his back and get her arrow ready. Now all she had to do was aim.
"Kagome, what are you going to do about the flowers? I see that holding your bow doesn't look terribly comfortable..." He pulled out Tessaiga himself, he'd protect Kagome no matter what. Protecting came first. "Let me go in front of you."
"One, you are forgetting that if I put these flowers down, I'll faint!" Then she went up next to him. "Two, we'll go together."
"Just don't die, please." She didn't say anything more but kept her bow up, and they both kept going forward. The aura kept getting worse as they went, but Kagome wouldn't let her stop her. It meant they were almost... just... there.
"I see my hanyou brother has come," they both looked forward and a bit up to see Sesshoumaru standing on some ugly looking youkai. "And you brought the girl."
"What of it? We're going to kill you now, brother!"
Kagome's attention, however, was directed somewhere else. No... no... it... it can't be... please, no...
"Kagome?"
"He's got Kohaku! And another arm! Those are the two shards! Kohaku's shard, and one on his arm!" Kohaku was his trap. To lure all of them there. Since the two shards were the only ones left other than theirs, them mixed with the gigantic youkai was able to produce a huge and fatal aura. It was him, him, that caused Kagome to faint... all Sesshoumaru's fault...
"Sesshoumaru! This is all your fault! You made Kagome faint, you... you... you piece of crap!" He instantly lunged toward Sesshoumaru with Tessaiga out in front of him. "You'll die! I'll end it here, now!"
"Inuyasha, don't-"
"Kagome, shut up! I'm going to kill him!" Sesshoumaru never moved. It was as if he was expecting Inuyasha's attack. "Kaze no Kizu!" He was at a height Kagome never imagined, but she ducked anyway to be sure she wouldn't get hit by the now yellow piercing through the sky, that was heading right for Sesshoumaru. But something was wrong. Sesshoumaru ended up taking a quick jump out the the way, but Kohaku remained in place, and Sesshoumaru didn't even bother to bring him with him.
"Inuyasha! Kohaku! He's going to get hit!"
"Oh, crap!" Inuyasha had a small look of worry, but it seemed as if a split second before Kohaku was hit a shadow picked him off and landed right next to Kagome... and it was Sango... but, Kohaku seemed as if he was dead. But he was alive, for sure. He was breathing, for one. But, here stood Sango, holding a doll if you didn't know any better.
"Sango!"
"What's happened to Kohaku!" In the meantime, Inuyasha was busy chasing Sesshoumaru, and missing almost every time. But now, his mind wasn't really set on killing him, more on keeping him away from Kagome and Sango.
"I don't know Sango! We just got here!" Taking a quick look at Inuyasha - who was now bloody from Sesshoumaru occasionally getting him - she turned back and spoke quick. "We just saw him and Sesshoumaru because we were following the horrible aura - you're lucky you aren't being killed by it - and saw him here with Kohaku. Then Inuyasha used his Kaze no Kizu, but Sesshoumaru jumped, leaving Kohaku behind, then you came, now run because I need to help Inuyasha!" Kagome turned from Sango and kept trying to aim at Sesshoumaru, but any time he got close Inuyasha would jump at him, causing Sesshoumaru to leave his spot.
"Kirara!" Sango called to her neko-mata (two-tailed cat), and placed Kohaku on her back when she came then whispered some directions Kagome couldn't make out. But Kirara took off and Sango readied her boomerang.
"Inuyasha, use the sword again, you-" as if fate were placed to make everything not go Kagome's way, Sesshoumaru turned and knocked Tessaiga into a nearby tree from Inuyasha's grasp. "Rrgh... Sango!"
"Kagome-chan?"
"Throw your Hiraikotsu at Sesshoumaru's new arm when I tell you to," Kagome wasn't one to usually give orders, but now was an exception. She readied her arrow, following and keeping a sharp eye on Sesshoumaru. "We'll go together... and... now!" She shot her arrow, which gave off a blue glow as always as it headed for Sesshoumaru's arm. Sango gave an "Rrgh!" as she threw her boomerang, and it went far clear from Kagome's arrow, but met up with her arrow once they both struck Sesshoumaru's arm. Thanks to Inuyasha's stalling and keeping Sesshoumaru in one spot for once, they were able to get his arm.
Once Inuyasha took hold of what happened he jumped a far distance to the tree his sword was lodged into and quickly pulled it out. On response, Sango caught her boomerang with ease, and Kirara seemed to come in the nick of time.
"Kirara!" Kagome shouted, at the new found companion. "Sango, I need her really quick, I need to get that shard!" Sango gave a quick nod, realizing the importance, and Kagome jumped on Kirara's vacant back. Kirara instantly started to rush towards Sesshoumaru's arm, which was now quite a distance away from Sesshoumaru since him and Inuyasha were at it again. Kagome was disgusted at the dead youkai Sesshoumaru had been with, but at the same time glad. Once at the spot, she jumped off Kirara and she went back to Sango.
Kagome kneeled down and picked the shard up, then took the rest of the jewel out and placed the tiny shard and the huge shard in her hands, then closed them. One shard to go. Kagome quickly placed the shard back inside of her shirt on it's necklace and readied an arrow. Eee... right now she just hoped not to fall off of this cliff. Instead of aiming and firing her arrow she put it back then began to walk along the edge of the cliff until she got to a sort of step-like situation. She went down, probably skipping every other step as she went down.
"Where's Inu... Agghhhh!" Horrible pain. Now she knew what being Inuyasha felt like... almost every day. She looked down, and this time... it was her that Sesshoumaru stuck his free hand through.
"Kagome! Sesshoumaru, you little-"
"Who's the little one, little brother?" He sneered as he quickly pulled his hand out of Kagome - which felt even worse - and headed toward Inuyasha again... while Kagome fell to the ground in pain.
"SESSHOUMARU! Sango, go help Kagome, NOW!" Sango didn't think twice of his demands, nor disobey him - she hopped on Kirara and jumped off once she got to Kagome. "Take her to Kaede's, and quick! I will still need your help!" Inuyasha managed to dodge Sesshoumaru's next attack with the Tessaiga.
"Oh! Kirara, you take her, okay!" Sango got Kagome's body onto Kirara, and she flew away instantly with great speed. Sango, on the other hand, got her boomerang ready and threw it at Sesshoumaru. It seemed to interest him and distract him for a moment... long enough or Inuyasha to start again...
"K...KAZE NO KIZU!1oneone!11!one1!oneone! (hhahaha sorry had to add that)" Unlucky enough for him, it barely even scraped Sesshoumaru and he jumped out of the way, causing much destruction behind him. From her earlier experience, Sango knew what to do. She'd wait for Inuyasha's next move.
"Are you getting tired, hanyou?"
"SHUT UP!" Once he started to raise his sword, Sango lifted her Hiraikotsu... "Kazeee.. nooo... KKKKKIIIIIIIIIZZZZZZZUUUUUU!" She threw it once he barely started to say "Ka" and realized it was just right, the two attacks formed together and struck at once. It was like Hiraikotsu meets uber-looking yellow thing that shocks the heck out of Sesshoumaru. But, unfortunately, it didn't kill him. Sango caught her boomerang in the air, and Inuyasha put Tessaiga right at Sesshoumaru's face.
"Listen, now..." he cocked Tessaiga a bit as if to warn him. "You will revive Kohaku, or I'll kill you right here, right now. You'll follow us to Kaede's - I'll be watching you - I will take the shard, and you will revive him. Got it?" Sesshoumaru made a move to attack Inuyasha, but he put Tessaiga closer to his face and gave him a scratch. "I will kill you. Fine, I'll get the girl to have you do it."
"Fine, I'll do it," Sesshoumaru said calmly, hoping to avoid being killed; he knew Inuyasha was serious. "Take me to this place."
Sango and Inuyasha shared the same thoughts: He's actually going to do it?
Sango was going: He's... he'll revive Kohaku after we take the shard out!
Inuyasha was going: I WANTED TO FRIKKIN' KILL HIM! Arrgh... oh well... at least Sango will be happy... and Kagome, we'll have the whole jewel!
