Gomen, Gomen, Gomen, I'm soooo sorry I took so long to post. There is only 4 days left of school so I'll try to get to my friends house to post there. I didn't realize how long it takes to type up a chapter. 10 min a day is just not enough.

Once again I'd like to thank my muse who as of yet still hasn't scanned the pictures but I'll also try to get those up asap. Well here's the long awaited chapter enjoy.

Light of Doomsday

By Marlett

Chapter 2

After Sesshomaru jumped into the swirling vortex he felt a sudden feeling of weightlessness overcome him. His body was slowly floating downwards, at least he thought it was downwards, it could have just as easily been upwards in the tunnel. All around him the light of the portal had been intensified, what seemed to be stars whizzed by his head as he fell.

Glancing ahead he saw InuYasha falling, seemingly unconscious. As his brother fell Sesshomaru could see the puppy ears he had always secretly loved shrinking and moving down to the side of his head to become the human ears he always had on the night of the new moon. Was it a new moon where they were going?

Before Sesshomaru had time to consider this thought he felt an excruciating pain in his head. He felt the claws that had always tipped his fingers shrink and his pointed ears round off. 'What is happening to me? Am I turning into a filthy human?'

He knew that if he looked into a mirror the markings on his face had disappeared with the ones on his wrists and the rest of his body.

If InuYasha was now human then... The realization hit him suddenly; he must be human now too.

Below him now Sesshomaru saw green, 'must be trees or maybe grass,' he thought.

Then before another thought could fly through his head he was falling, really falling this time, no weightlessness about it.

Pain shot throughout Sesshomaru's back as he landed on the ground. Peeling himself out of the dirt Sesshomaru glanced over to see his brother sprawled on his stomach. Hearing a groan Sesshomaru noticed his brother was starting to come to.

InuYasha heard noises around him unlike any he had ever heard before. Weird clopping passed his ears and the smell of fresh fruit filled his nose. Oh the air, it smelled so clean. Opening his eyes he was shocked to see dirt beneath him. Closing his eyes, InuYasha rolled over onto his back before opening them again. This time wisps of cloud filled his vision.

'Wait... where are the skyscrapers? The airplanes? Where am I?'

These were the thoughts he had, until a large head interrupted the view of the clear sky.

"Ahh... Oh Sessh. Huh? Sessh? What happened to you?" Sesshomaru didn't look like Sesshomaru. His hair was still silver and his eyes still gold but everything else had changed. Gone were all the attributes that made him look demon.

"I'm not exactly sure what happened but I think falling through that portal destroyed the demon blood in our bodies. You're human too." answered Sesshomaru.

"What!" InuYasha took this moment to pull his hair in front of him shocked to see that it was black. His claws too had become dull fingernails and when running his tongue over his teeth felt that his fangs too had receeded. "Hey, how come your hair didn't change color? And your eyes too?" asked InuYasha. "Even my ears changed but yours look almost the same.

Sesshomaru thought about it for a moment before answering. "I think it has something to do with you being a half-demon while I am a full demon. At least that's my theory. Anyway your eyes are still gold."

"Really? If I turned human then they should be purple. Where ever we are this place is sure strange to do this to our blood."

"Ya, I wonder where this is exactly?"

Just then a farmer driving a cart passed by the two staring brothers. "You two from around here?" he asked.

"N-no," stuttered InuYasha obviously feeling out of place in his pajamas.

"Oh," replied the farmer, "didn't look like ya belonged in Tocar."

"Tocar?" questioned Sesshomaru.

"Yes, Tocar. Don't ya know where ya are? Get out now while you still can for ya own good." With that statement the farmer shook his reigns and continued on his way.

"Wonder what he meant by that?" Sesshomaru pondered aloud.

"Who cares the guy was a total nutcase anyway." retorted InuYasha.

"I don't know. I think he may have been telling the truth. Either way we need to get home."

"Ya, home..." muttered InuYasha

"Lets try finding a city or even a village depending on how primitive this place is. Ok?" Sesshomaru wondered exactly how far advanced this place was from the world they had come from. And why did the guy say to leave this place? Was it dangerous or something?

"Sesshomaru?" He had obviously blanked out and InuYasha wanted to know why. "I guess we should get moving if we hope to find a village. I think I see smoke over there, maybe we can start that way." Declaring this InuYasha pointed towards the setting sun. "Let's go into the west."

"InuYasha I think you are seeing the sunset. I say we go north."

"No. I'm not just seeing the sunset. I did see smoke!"

"InuYasha you're insane if you think there is smoke there."

"I'm not crazy!" shouted InuYasha. "There is smoke but if you don't believe me..." With this InuYasha started walking west.

Sesshomaru wasn't having any of InuYasha's theatrics today and marching up behind InuYasha grabbed the back of his shirt. Turning to the right Sesshomaru started walking to the north dragging his younger brother behind him.

InuYasha tried digging in his heels and flailing his arms in hopes that Sesshomaru would let go. That however was not the case, Sesshomaru never let his grip waver and continued walking at his steady pace.

An hour later InuYasha had consigned himself to his fate and was now letting Sesshomaru drag him. He wasn't happy about this decision but he wouldn't give in to Sesshomaru.

Just then they were ambushed by a group of men in uniform. Screaming, the men pulled out swords and attacked Sesshomaru. Usually Sesshomaru could have taken them out no problem but because of the loss of his demon blood was considerably weaker. The attackers easily overpowered Sesshomaru, holding him down while another soldier walked over to InuYasha.

"Hey, you ok kid?" the soldier asked, "I hope this guy didn't hurt you."

"No, I'm fine," answered InuYasha. "What are you going to do to him?"

"This man will be forced to fight the Socarites in our army. Never fear he will never hurt you again."

InuYasha was worried now. "He didn't do anything, you can't take him." Declaring this InuYasha jumped on the man and started his chest with his little fists. The man then grabbed InuYasha by the waist and threw him. InuYasha hit a tree and felt his world go lack.

"Sessho...maru," he muttered before he fell fully unconscious.

"InuYasha!" Sesshomaru saw InuYasha hit the tree and his mind went blank. 'How dare those morons hurt my little brother! If he's hurt they're gonna pay.' Sesshomaru was now fighting as hard as he could with no regard for his life; the only thing that mattered was InuYasha. Fighting like a demon Sesshomaru didn't realize that the man behind him was wielding a club. Sesshomaru had just punched a guy in the jaw when he felt an excruciating pain in the back of his head.

'Damn, they must have hit me. Live InuYasha. Don't die on me brother.

So what ya think? Let me know. All your reviews are well appreciated.
