Alexi Polivneach, the pride of the Redstone empire, absentmindedly polished and sharpened for the twelfth time in the past hour. Her power was only surpassed by the House of Redstone and this distressed Alexi greatly. "Will this blade never again see battle with a worthy adversary?" she thought. For Alexi had not faced a "worthy adversary since the wars of tirnanog more than a thousand years ago. Though she was not of the House of Redstone, she was one of the ancient demons and was bestowed with incredible longevity, and complete mastery of earth and stone. Suddenly a small demon bearing the Redstone family crest rushed into Alexis private chambers panting and spurting blood from several large wounds upon its chest, presumably obtained from larger demons who were jealous of his assignment. "My...cough ...My lady," the demon choked. "cough...The High Lord...cough...Yevon Redstone...cough...requests your presence immediately" "What is your name?" Alexi crooned in a voice like poison honey. "M...cough cough...Myagi..." the frightened demon sputtered. In one lighting fast motion Alexi levitated a boulder from her wall and propelled it toward the cowering demon at frightening speeds pinning him against the floor and crushing his lungs. "Messenger scum" Alexi spat as she walked by the dying demon.
After several hours of travel, Alexi reached A'mok Nathal, the capital of the Redstone empire, and home of Yevon Redstone. "I wonder what the old fool wants..." Alexi thought to herself as she arrived at the stone gates guarded the once beautiful city. "My...My lady!" a frightened guard gasped. "We will open the gates for you right away!" "There is no need." Alexi responded cooly. As she said this she extended her hand slowly and close her eyes. All of the guards watched in fascination, but none dare spoke. Suddenly the gate started to shake violently and the stones from which the gate was built, began to groan. Alexi smiled as the gate began to open as if an army of invisible soldiers were ramming themselves against it. Several of the "mighty demon guards" fainted as Alexi walked threw the gate as if nothing had happened.
"There it is" Myoga said to Inu-Yasha, pointing at a huge city with stone gates. "That's the city of A'mok Nathal." Myoga shot a nervous glance at Inu-Yasha. "Are you sure you wish to do this Master?" The old flea demon asked "It's not to late to change your mind." Kagome said nothing. She was to afraid of the possibility of losing Inu-Yasha to speak. She fell to her knees, and began to sob uncontrollably. Inu-Yasha looked at her with confusion and concern in his eyes. "Are you hurt?" he asked. Kagome only shook her head in response. Inu-Yasha sighed "I will never understand humans" he said to Myoga. "Lets go Kagome, if you're not injured, then you can walk and cry at the same time. Kagome didn't move. Inu-Yasha sighed once again and sat down, resting his head on his hand. After several minutes, Kagome became silent. "Are you done yet?" Inu-Yasha asked her. "Yes" she said in a weak voice. "Good. then lets go." Kagome nodded and stood up. "Inu Yasha..." She began. "What if you don't win? I don't know what I would do if you died!" she blurted out. "What! You're starting to sound like Myoga. You don't think I can beat these wimps? Feh." Kagome smiled and hugged the half-demon "I guess you're right." she said. "Ok. I'm ready to go now."
Awww...Isn't that sweet? A half-demon in love. It would be a shame if he died wouldn't it? Well, Maybe he will and maybe he won't. You'll just have to wait and see won't you?
