Ch. 22

The Rescue

--------------------------

Two Hours Later…

"InuYasha, wake up", Himiko whispers, shaking his shoulder.

"Huh…what…", he mutters as he opens his eyes.

"It's time to wake up. Godai and Kagome have arrived", she says.

"Ok", he stands up and notices the tail is gone, "How long ago did the eclipse start?"

"It started ten minutes ago", she replies.

"Good, that tail was starting to bug me", InuYasha retorts, watching Godai escort Kagome to the alter and the priest there, "So when do I grab Kagome and escape to outside the shrine?"

"When Koga arrives", she whispers, "He will arrive when the vows are to be exchanged".

"That bastard better show up soon!", he growls, as he starts fidgeting.

"We're all here for the marriage of Godai and his bride", the priest says.

"It starts", Himiko whispers.

"Do you Godai, take your bride, willfully and honestly?", the priest asks.

"Yes", Godai nods.

"Do you the bride, take Godai, willfully and honestly?", the priest asks to Kagome.

Kagome stares into nothingness with half-closed, glazed eyes, and says nothing.

"I'll take your silence as a yes", the priest says, "Is there anyone who whishes that these two should not wed, let them speak now or forever hold your peace".

"I will not allow them to wed!", Koga's voice rang out from the door of the shrine.

"Who are you? How dare you interrupt with my wedding!", Godai shouts, stepping away from the alter, "What right do you have?"

"InuYasha, go now while he's distracted", Himiko hints.

"Right", InuYasha smirks, jumping down from the balcony and landing next to Kagome, his hood still drawn over his head.

"The name is Koga; leader of the wolf pack. The reason for stopping the wedding is because, Kagome is my mate!", Koga sneers.

"That is where you are wrong, you dimwitted wolf!", InuYasha yells.

"Huh? Who are you?", Godai asks, turning around to face him.

"A ghost coming back to haunt you", InuYasha retorts, removing the hood and then the cloak.

"You!…I killed you!...", Godai stutters, "How can you still be alive?"

"That would be my doing!", Himiko exclaims, standing on the railing of the balcony.

"Himiko, how dare you!", Godai shouts.

"I'm taking back Kagome", InuYasha remarks, picking up Kagome bridal-style and leaps out the hole in the shrine roof.

"I don't think so!", Godai exclaims, spreading out his white wings.

"There will be no need to follow him, I'm your opponent", Himiko retorts, spreading her black wings and flies at him with her sword drawn.

"I'll be the victor in this fight!", he shouts, drawing his sword.

Their swords clashes with each-other.

"I have to stop dog-turd from taking advantage of my Kagome", Koga whispers to himself.

"Think again, wolf breath", a voice behind him says, before the owner of the voice knocks him out with a blow to the back of the head with a jizo statue.

"You think I'll let you get in the way of fated true love or me meeting with my cousin, think again, jerk!", Midori sneers, shrinking the jizo statue and putting it back in her kimono.

"Himiko, you never tried to stop my marriages before, why now?", Godai asks, blocking a blow.

"Exiled or not, you still have to follow the angel clan's rules, and broke the biggest rule of casting the Inu Curse on one of Lord InuTaisho's two sons, after he had the clan vow that they wouldn't do it!", Himiko replies.

"What are you talking about, Lord InuTaisho only had one son and his name is Sesshomaru", he retorts.

"That is where you are wrong, Godai. At the time you betrayed the high Elders; 200 years ago, Lord InuTaisho's youngest son was born. The child's name was InuYasha, the same boy you cast the curse on", she answers calmly.

"Like I care!", Godai snorts, he swings his sword.

"That carelessness will be your downfall", Himiko says, parrying his every stroke.
