Inuyasha's Redemption Chapter 7
Disclaimer: Look up. Besides the word Author, does it say Rumiko Takahashi? It shouldn't. Because I'm not her. And I don't own Inuyasha.
Inuyasha's POV
"Inuyasha…." She says then trails off. I can smell her confusing emotions. I guess she doesn't know what to think or feel. Then I smell something else and that smell astounds me.
"Naraku." I say.
She looks startled "What?"
"Naraku. I smell Naraku!" I say, standing up in alarm. "From that way!" I say, pointing to the east.
"That's ridiculous, Inuyasha! He's dead!" She protests, but looks worried. After all, Naraku did trick us once before. That was when we kissed….She calmed me out of my demonic state.
"Kagome, I know what I smell. And…" I hesitate, knowing she's going to insist on going to help.
"And what?" she demands.
"And…Miroku and Sango are there too." I tell her, somewhat reluctantly.
Her eyes are full of determination. She stands up, grabbing a quiver of arrows and a bow. She starts to run in the direction I pointed out and I smile a bit. Same Kagome. I run after her, catching up easily "Kagome, You'll never get there in time. Let me carry you on my back." I plead.
She ignores me, continuing to run "No."
"Kagome! Do you want to help Miroku and Sango or not?" I demand.
She stops and sighs. "Fine." She said and she goes onto my back "But hurry!" she says.
I smile. I knew she wouldn't be able to say no once I said that. I wonder how my friends have been doing since I went to hell. I just know Sango's pissed at me. Hell, I'm pissed at me. I start to run, pleased that I can still go as fast as I used to. We reach the battlefield in minutes, just as a large demon is bringing his foot down onto a hut where crying issues from. Kagome jumps off and I draw my Tetseiga. "Wind Scar!" I yell and my attack slices across the demons back. He howls in pain and fals back a bit, his foot landing next to the hut instead of on it.
"Inuyasha?" I hear. The voice belongs to Sango and she is shocked; with good reason I suppose. She runs over to me and Kagome, her Hirakotsu held firmly in her hand. Miroku follows her. They both were nearly identical expressions of shock.
"Hai, it is me." I tell them. Sango looks indecisive for a minute, then slaps me. I don't say anything. I know I deserve it. I can smell her pregnancy on her. "It's a boy." I tell her. She looks pleased. So does Miroku.
"Lets concentrate on that demon right now" Kagome says, her bow strung and held ready. Miroku, Sango and I nod and turn to the demon. When we see something that shocks us to the core. The demon…is dead. With my hearing I hear something even odder. It comes from inside the demon.
"What happened to the demon?" Sango asked confused. I shake my head and approach the demon. There are no marks of death, no wounds, nothing. It's just not breathing. As I get closer I see a thin line on the demon's side. Suddenly the line opens and I see something that shocks me even more….
Sesshomaru's POV
I stop. "What is it Lord Sesshomaru?" the twelve year old at my side asks.
"Don't bother our Lord, Rin!" The toad, Jaken admonishes her then looks at me "But, why did you stop Sesshomaru-sama?"
"I smell my wretched half-breed brother. Let us go and see why he came back to the world of the living." I say and start towards where I smell the hanyou's scent from. A dull curiousity fills me. Why is Inuyasha back? I thought he was in hell with that twice dead miko…Kinky-ho or something…..
Whatever, I will know soon enough.
A/N- I decided to add Sesshomaru into the story. Sorry it took me so long to update, I had a case of Writers Block! I'm sorry! I hope you like this chapter! Escpecially the nice little cliffy I left there for you. Who do you think killed the demon? Review please!
