I DON'T OWN INUYASHA!
I finally got a review! Thanks to Evuljenius for reviewing. Evuljenius has a great story, as well, that I recommend you all read! Keep reviewing.
Chapter 3 – Enter Legion
As Inuyasha and the rest ran through the village, they found Kaede's body. "Oh no you didn't. DAMN YOU HELL, DEMON!" Inuyasha shouted in rage as he ran towards the giant demon. "WIND SCAR!" he shouted as he slammed the Tetsusiga into the ground. The demon just sidestepped the attack.
"Allow me to introduce myself. I am the one known as Legion. I am a servant of the dark lord Lucifer. I am the one that comes before the dark lord," the demon said.
"Lucifer and Legion? Aren't those names from that Western religion's holy book?" Sango asked after thinking about the demon's name.
"Indeed, they are Sango. In the Bible, Christianity's holy book, it says that Lucifer was the most beautiful of all of the angels in Heaven, but he wanted God's power, and in an attempt to take it, got himself banished to rule of Hell, where all wicked souls reside. Legion is one of Satan's, as Lucifer is sometimes called, most powerful demons," Miroku said, answering Sango's question.
"Very good, monk. You knew more than that withered up old priestess. She thought I was an incarnation of Naraku. I assure you, I am much more powerful than that half-breed," Legion warned, raising a clawed hand and bringing it down, flattening the rest of the village.
"Bring it on, Legion!" Inuyasha shouted as he jumped at Legion and slashed his arm.
"Nice try half-demon, but I'm too strong for little cuts like that to hurt me!" Legion shouted as he blew a fireball at Inuyasha, which he dodged.
"Inuyasha! Legion isn't a demon like Sesshomaru, he's a true hell-spawn minion. He doesn't have a demonic aura, so you can't use the Backlash Wave!" Kagome shouted to him as she fired a sacred arrow. The arrow hit Legion directly in the chest, but had little more effect than a normal arrow.
"Fool. If I'm not a demon like you fight, what makes you think you can purify me in the same manner? Only a Christian priest can purify me!" Legion said as he blew a jet of fire as Kagome.
"Kagome!" Inuyasha shouted as he jumped in front of her and shielded her with the robe of the fire rat. "Kagome, wear this," Inuyasha ordered as he removed his haori.
"Ok, but be careful!" Kagome yelled back at Inuyasha as he ran off to attack Legion again.
"WIND SCAR!" Inuyasha shouted when he was right in front of Legion.
"Ugh, damn you little dog," Legion said as he fell to the ground, his legs from the knees down on both sides obliterated. "Fortunately for me, I have wings," he said as he began flapping the massive red, fleshy wings that carried him into the air, making up for the loss of his legs.
"I'll take care of this. HIRAIKOTSU!" Sango shouted as the giant boomerang bone flew at Legion, cutting off both of his wings.
"Damn you!" Legion shouted as he propped himself up on his arms, since they are longer than the stubs of his legs. "Now die!" Legion shouted as he unleashed a massive jet of white flames as the entire group.
"NOOO!" Kagome shouted as she unconsciously erected a spiritual barrier that stopped the fire.
"Kagome, I thought our spiritual attacks didn't effect him. Why did your barrier stop the fire?" Miroku asked Kagome, wondering why they were still alive.
"I don't know, let's think about it after we kill him!" Kagome shouted as the fired another arrow, aiming for his eyes. She missed and hit his ear.
"Hehehe. Smart little girl, using your barriers," Legion said as he hand-walked over to Kagome. "Too bad for you I'll have to eat you now." He swung one hand and knocked Sango and Miroku out.
He then picked up Kagome and was about to eat her, when from behind came, "Forget about me, ugly?" Inuyasha asked as he ran up from behind Legion and in one giant arc, cut off the arm supporting his gigantic body. He slammed into the ground, and Kagome began falling the 45 meters she had been lifted up. Inuyasha ran to her and jumped to catch her.
"You stay here, I'll finish him off," Inuyasha said, jumping back into the air. "WIND SCAR!" he shouted as the Wind Scar engulfed Legion, finally destroying him. "Kagome, you go check on Sango, I'll see if the pervert's still alive," Inuyasha told Kagome as he began to run to where Miroku had landed, some 60 meters away.
"Mmm, Kagome? What happened?" Sango asked, just coming back around.
"It's ok Sango, Inuyasha killed Legion.
"Where's Miroku? Is he ok?" Sango asked, her voice now full of selfless worry.
"He's fine! Just give him a few days and he'll be back to his old perverted self!" Inuyasha shouted to Kagome and Sango, using his demonic hearing to listen to Sango's question, despite the fact that they were over a football field's length away from each other.
"Thank Kami that's over. Kagome, why did your barrier protect us if your arrow didn't kill Legion?" Sango asked, beginning to feel better.
"I don't know. I suppose it was because that was pretty much just a barrier, the only think spiritual about it is the way it was erected, and he just shot normal fire at us, so a normal barrier blocking normal fire," Kagome answered, trying to make sense of it herself.
In Sesshomaru's Castle
Kagura and Kanna were relaxing in their room. Kanna was reading a book, finally having a soul in her body, and Kagura was just laying on her bed, feeling and listening to the beat of he newly recovered heart. Suddenly, Kagura was stuck with a deep feeling of fear and raw panic. "What is it, sister?" Kanna asked, noticing the fear on the features of Kagura's face.
"Where is Sesshomaru? Something's very wrong," Kagura told Kanna, the urgency obvious in her voice.
"I heard Jaken say that he was in his study," Kanna told her sister as Kagura ran out the door.
'I must find Sesshomaru. There is something very wrong here, and if he doesn't stop it soon, catastrophe will befall the land,' Kagura thought to herself as she ran full speed in the direction of Sesshomaru's study. "Sesshomaru! There's something very wrong. I just felt a massive evil aura in the village Inuyasha lives in," Kagura told Sesshomaru as she caught her breath.
"I am already aware of the demon in the village. It has been destroyed, though the village has as well. Kagura, I want you to find Jaken. You and he will go to the remains of the village. Pick up any survivors, including Inuyasha and his friends, and take the to the village nearest this castle, but bring Inuyasha and his companions directly to the castle dinning area. You will fly on your feather, and Jaken will take Ah-Uhn," Sesshomaru commanded.
"Yes, Sesshomaru," Kagura said and bowed, before running off to find Jaken. 'As much as I hate taking orders, I do owe both Inuyasha and Sesshomaru for killing Naraku and freeing me.' Once she found Jaken, told him what they were to do, and punched him in the head for back-talking her, the two set off toward the village. They arrived in a matter of minutes.
"What does that bastard want now? It's only been a day, he said I'd have a month to decide!" Inuyasha yelled when he saw Kagura and Jaken.
"Relax, Inuyasha, we're just here to take you, your friends, and any surviving villagers to the castle village. Sesshomaru has ordered us to take and shelter you all. He is sending 25 youkai warriors to defend the well and the sacred tree until stationary fortifications can be established," Kagura told the angry half-demon.
"Inuyasha, let's go. It's not like we've anywhere else to go," Miroku said to Inuyasha as he stepped onto Kagura's feather. The rest soon followed, along with eight surviving villagers. "We'll have to thank Sesshomaru for his kindness," Miroku said as he looked at the land speed by below.
"See, Inuyasha, I told you Sesshomaru had changed since he had been trying to steal the Tetsusiga," Kagome told him in an attempt to ease is nerves. It wasn't working.
"I'll bet this is just a trap to get me killed and get the Tetsusiga. I'd understand it if it were a village full of demons, but a human village? I don't see any reasoning other than to get Tetsusiga," Inuyasha said to Kagome.
"Believe it or not, Inuyasha, Sesshomaru doesn't hate humans anymore. Rin as taught him that humans are just as valuable as demons. He doesn't hate half-demons, though he doesn't like them very much. But you're his brother, he has a deep respect for you, even if he doesn't always show it, or seem to trust you very much," Kagura said, defending the man who sheltered her sister and her when they had nowhere to go after Naraku's death.
"Feh. I'll believe it when I see it," Inuyasha said when the castle and castle village came into view.
I tried to make this chapter a bit longer. I'm afraid that if I try to make the chapters too long, that I'll end up telling half the story in one chapter. I want to try to get to at least 10 chapters before the story's over. Please R&R!
