Time of Heaven and Hell
Chapter Twelve
Demon Slayer village
"Don't let him in!" A man yelled at the front of the group. "We're demon…" His sentence was cut short when he was sliced in half.
"You pathetic fool's, you can't stop me." Naraku called sending a cloud of miasma flooding the entrance to the village.
"Hiraikotsu!" Sango called out, sending the boomerang directly at Naraku, hitting him and slicing the arm off. He regenerated and a new demon arm came forth.
"You will have to do better than that." Naraku stated landing several feet away from Sango.
"Why aren't you in human from? It is the new moon after all and you are only a half demon."
"The jewel shard can do many things." Naraku replied. "Now on to more pressing matters, where is Sesshomaru's brother?"
"What is your problem with him? He has done nothing to you."
"On the contrary Demon Slayer, he has. Now move!" A swarm of wasps came out and flew toward Sango, buzzing around her; allowing Naraku to walk right passed her. He began to fly again, so he was now over the huts, which gave him a good view of the village.
Several bone weapons flew up at him, which he easily dodged and sent his own attacks back. He sent poison gas down on to the slayers, but they had there masks on so it did not effect them. Demons began to run out of the forests nearby and into the village attacking anything moving, destroying the huts and the walls to the village leaving nothing undamaged.
Several demons were killed but many more slayers were slaughtered. Naraku turned back to Sango who was finishing off a demon that had been trying to kill her. He went over to her and landed. Once she finished the demon she turned to him.
"I must say you're the only one who isn't dead yet, but that won't last for long."
Sango took out her katana and ran toward Naraku raising the weapon high. Unfortunately she was still in training and not the best slayer around just yet.
Sango was fast but not faster than Naraku, who, when she got close grabbed her wrist that held the weapon and hit her in the stomach.
"Too bad your not a demon, my servants would of loved to have some fun with you." Naraku stated to her.
"Leave her alone!" Inuyasha yelled.
Naraku turned to feel a sharp blade being pierced into his leg. A demon arm came out of his back and hit Inuyasha in the chest, making him fly back and land with a thump.
"Inuyasha no! Get out of here!" Sango yelled at him.
"So this is the little brat." Naraku stated pulling Sango closer, and sending some paralyzing gas at her face. "Well Inuyasha, how do you feel? I hope guilty, you came here and this village gets destroyed and guess what…it's your fault. It's your fault that this young woman is going to die, it's your fault that all of these people are dead and it's your fault that your brother is going to die as well."
"No it isn't…" A stunned look comes over Inuyasha's face.
"No? So it won't be your fault when I use this katana that you stabbed into me," He pulls out the sharp object from his leg, "And use it on your friend here, if you want to call her that."
"Sango…I won't let you hurt her!" Inuyasha yelled getting up and running toward Naraku.
By now he was in his human form and not as strong as he once was.
Naraku threw Sango aside, letting her land on her back. Inuyasha jumped up, a small dagger like weapon in his hand.
"Foolish boy." Naraku stated as he easily caught Inuyasha and plunged the sword deep into his stomach, pushing it threw till the blade came out his back side. He fell to the ground on his knees, clutching the wound. Above him Naraku was laughing.
"And you can't heal." Naraku taunted him as he kneeled to Inuyasha's position. "I wish your bother had been here to see this, I would have enjoyed the look on his face." Naraku put his left hand behind Inuyasha's head, holding him still and the other arm that held the weapon he put it close to Inuyasha's chest, cutting open his red clothing exposing the firm chest.
He placed the tip of the cold blade to Inuyasha's chest, letting him know what would happen next.
"I'll tell your bother good-bye for you." Naraku said smiling before pushing the weapon in slowly watching with satisfaction as the blood dripped down from the new wound to merge with the stomach wound.
Sango heard the cries of Inuyasha but was unable to do anything about it. Naraku let Inuyasha fall back on the ground, the blade still protruding from his chest.
Naraku went over to Sango, who was still lying stiff on the ground.
"Well my dear, I can't say that this hasn't been fun, because in all truth it has."
"You…won't get…away with…this." Sango stated to him through a stiff mouth.
"On the contrary I already have." Naraku said coldly before disappearing in a cloud of his miasma.
Two hours later back at Naraku's castle
"You are back my Lord." Kagura said bowing before Naraku.
His cloths were covered in blood and he had a sort of pleased look on his face which was a rarity.
"Sesshomaru killed that demon up front I assume?"
"It would appear so my Lord, you were right in that Kagome character sending it."
"Oh and how would you know that?"
"I asked her before I sliced her head off."
Naraku chuckled, "And the rest of the people?"
"All dead my Lord and every thing is burning as we speak."
"Very good…Kanna!"
"My Lord." The young girl came in and bowed slightly to Naraku.
"Where is Sesshomaru?"
The girl came over and kneeled before Naraku showing him the mirror. The image showed Sesshomaru just arriving at the Demon Slayers village.
"Show me his face."
The mirror turned around and appeared in a different perspective showing Sesshomaru's face. His gaze was cold, but a slight look of horror was there in his eyes as well. Naraku watched as he went over to Sango first, who had blacked out from the gas, he checked to make sure she was undamaged, since she had just awoken, once that was complete he went over to the scent that he had smelled for miles, the scent of his brother.
He slowly took out the blade from his chest throwing it to the side and picking up Inuyasha bridal style he walked to a hut that still stood. The image on the mirror followed Sesshomaru inside. Sesshomaru placed him down on a mat, pressing a towel into the wounds. Sango came in with a steaming metal tray filled with water. She placed it down next to Sesshomaru and helped with the make-shift bandages.
She raised her head slightly as if listening to something; she raised her head higher and saw the poison insect that was buzzing softly in the corner of the room. She jumped toward it killing it instantly, cutting off the connection and turning the image on the mirror black.
"He will be mad my Lord."
"Yes I know, I'll take what I want from him then kill him. He will be too hard to control forever. Get a bath ready, this blood smells."
"Yes my Lord."
