Kouga's Demise Pt. 1
Disclaimer: Read the one from the tenth chapter.
Sesshomaru halted as he reached Kagome's house. He bashed through the front door, not caring who would see. Hojo had evidence when he had reacted so obviously guiltily. Mrs. Higurashi and Kagome's grandpa ran over to see what had happened but they didn't see Sesshomaru. He had already rushed up to Kagome's room. He knew that was where Kouga would be because of his scent.
Sesshomaru tore through the door and saw Kouga right in front of him. The wolf demon was; no doubt, ready to claw apart his face. His paw-like hands were held just below his face. Held in threatening curved positions they looked ready to attack. His face was cold, hard and emotionless. It reminded Sesshomaru of his own when he had lived in the Feudal Era.
'If I had stepped even half a step forward,' Sesshomaru thought shocked, 'I would have probably fallen to death at his hands.' He stopped himself from shaking with fear.
He returned his thoughts to reality. Sesshomaru saw that Kouga was absolutely still and looking at his opponent. Just like Sesshomaru himself… They were so alike but at the same time so very different. Sesshomaru, on one hand, had turned from evil to good. Kouga, on the other, had become evil from good.
Sesshomaru brought up the courage to ask Kouga a question he had meant to ask ever since he smelled the black aura. "What made you evil?" His words cut through the air like a knife.
Kouga almost clawed him but realized right before he attacked that Sesshomaru was only asking a question. A question he did not fancy in the least to answer. A question he had dreaded would come.
FLASHBACK
A black ninja star (AN: Is that what they're called?) almost sliced into Kouga's right arm. Kouga turned around to look and saw that the remains of his wolf clan were killed, including Ginta and Hakkaku. His heart frosted over as he saw the seen.
Kouga was now the last of his wolf tribe. Yes, there were other wolf tribes, but this is was his. His very own. Naraku had already killed many of them and now the remaining few were killed. How could someone be so heartless? Kouga did what his instinct told him to do- imply an attack.
He put up his claws and looked around. "Who's there?" He called. Kouga received no answer and sniffed the air subtly. No aura was present, good or bad.
A sudden wind blew against him. Kouga, for seconds, allowed himself to be pulled by it in a stunned demeanour. 'How can that happen?' He thought, 'That wind came out of nowhere!' Seconds, however, was all that was needed by the blower of the wind. It pulled Kouga towards him, imposing a feeling of dread.
Black was the last thing that Kouga saw before he was consumed by the medallion. It controlled itself…
Leaves blew in the place Kouga last was. It remained unchanged last when Kouga was standing on it only moments ago.
END FLASHBACK
Kouga held back a wince as he remembered the dreadful scene. It had blackened his heart ever cold. He would never feel anything again but hate and rage. He wanted nothing more.
"It is not a kind scene. Let's just say I had an unpleasant encounter with a murderer of an object." Kouga told Sesshomaru in a cold tone. The mutt was not worthy of even a name. Let alone an answer to an important question.
"Then you shall not object to your death. If an object can ensnare you without a brain1 easily I can kill you in my sleep." Sesshomaru said to Kouga in an almost identical tone.
Kouga allowed himself some emotion of his to be seen. His eyes narrowed almost into slits as he glared at Sesshomaru. "I guess that if you are so impudent as to say you can beat me you must be as stupid as I thought you were. It must be easy to beat you."
Sesshomaru gave him a cold stare. He did not move his eyes but they turned frost-covered as if his eyes had been crafted from gold-tone ice. "I say the same to you, incompetent wolf. You let yourself become locked away in a worthless pendant. I think even Jaken, ex-apprentice could have escaped that. I am not sad to say that you, as human teenagers say, suck."
A bulging vein appeared on a corner of Kouga's head. "What did you say you useless mutt? You suck. Your crummy brother is better than you and it was easy to kill him! If anyone dies in this battle it will be you, Dogtrash."
Sesshomaru almost flinched at the comment. "I happen to have forgiven my brother a few centuries ago. I do not believe he is of shoddy work in any way. If anyone is inferior it is most certainly you, b."
Kouga attacked the powerful dog demon and a fight began…
To Be Continued…
Author's Note: Sorry for the seriously descriptive stuff- I just practiced a play from the internet which had a lot of Shakespeare type writing. I'm in the mood for writing descriptively! And I'm trying out for a school play on the 28th! Too bad I have no experience in acting except Drama! I'm happy it's a musical. My friends are both hoping to be Cinderella! One is okay and the other sucks. XP I like her but, you know, she's a few octaves higher than everyone else in Choir.
I'm not awesome at actions scenes so forgive me!
I'm working on a WITCH fic if any of you know what that is. It's a Will x Caleb so I assume I'll have a few flamers once it hits Fanfiction. That's okay. It's the people who care that really matter.
Sorry that this is such a short chapter but I wanted to get it out by the end of Saturday and still have time to spend with my parents while my sister's out on her second sleepover ever so… yeah.
1 – If anyone was wondering Sesshomaru already knew about the medallion and stuff so that's how he knew.
No flamers allowed! I will force feed them one ton of marshmallows accompanied by eight gallons of caramel sauce! Stands towering over everyone laughing like insane. But all that can be avoided by not being judgemental and looking at how well written the story is.
