1CS: Well, this is the end of it all. Will they get her back from Naraku and Sesshomaru? Find out now! Btw, I don't own any anime characters. But I do own my OCs and a ren plushie:3 Read and enjoy!
"Chibi Shaman!" Ren screams waking up in a sweat. The bed was empty without her. He puts his head into his hands. Wanting to weep, but couldn't. Even though his father was dead, he could still fell the beatings pulsing in his body if he did what his father consider wrong. That's why he loved the way that Danielle never gave up on him. She made all the bad memories fade. But since she was gone, the suppressed memories were resurfacing. He wanted her back. He needed her.
"Bad dream again?" Hao asks standing in the door way.
"Fuck off Hao."
"Today's the day. You ready?"
"Do you think practicing 70 hours non-stop isn't being ready?"
"No. I think it's a way to forget her. Or to kill yourself."
"Do you think that I'd honestly leave her to them!"
"I didn't say such a thing."
Jax bounds into the room with Shippo. "Oh great, the wonder bunny's here."
"Hey, it's the energizer bunny," she squeaks. "C'mon it's time to go! Shippo knows where they are!"
"When are we going?"
"As soon as you get dress, China boy."
"Look closer, stupid." Jax looks at what he was wearing. He had slept in his battle outfit- black tank top, gi pants, and martial art shoes. His weapon was beside him. Hao notices that Bason was standing next Jax. Ren gets up and walks to the kitchen.
"Well somebody's dressed for a funeral."
"Yes," Hao says, watching Ren stare at where Danielle was kidnapped. Ren places a white rose at where she was last seen and two coach roaches behind it. "Theirs." Ren destroys the roaches, quickly and effortlessly.
They stare at where the were to meet their foes. They had gone through a well and stood in front of a feudal castle that belongs to Naraku. They see Naraku and Sesshomaru walk out of the castle. "Kobanwan, everyone," Naraku says with a twisted smile. "Ready to die?"
"Where's Dani-chan?" Jax questions. Sesshomaru drags her out. Danielle tries to run to Jax, but he holds on tight to her.
"There will be trials and a fight afterwards."
"Oh I'm so scared. Bring on the trials."
"You idiot. It's already begun."
"What? How?"
"It all starts with Danielle." He grabs Danielle by the back of the neck. She looks as if she is going to cry out, but nothing comes out. "Speak to them, Danielle. Tell them what your trials is." She shakes her head. "No! You'll fail this trial."
"C'mon Danielle so we can win this."
"Ninaskish ate tooka, Naraku," Danielle mutters.
"Danielle?"
"Nakashi?"
"Talk to us."
"Ninaskish m!" Jax begins to get frustrated.
"Cut the crap, Danielle."
"Ninaskish m sirus!"
"Be serious for once!"
"Sirus? Sirus!" Danielle turns to Naraku. She is pissed off. "Ninaskish ate tooka!" She turns to Sesshomaru. "Ninaskishi ate took!" She goes on her knees, greatly depressed.
"Danielle, are you okay?"
"Ninaskishi ate tooka."
"What's wrong?"
"Ninaskishi m derra ella."
Naraku laughs. "They can't understand you." Sesshomaru calmly states. "And with one minute left you will have failed."
"Ninaskishi ate tooka!"
He turns to Ren. "If you are able to translate at least three words in a minute, then your girlfriend will be able to speak normally. And it'll begin…now."
She turns to her enemies. "Ninaskishi ate-"
"Will you knock it off?"
She looks at Ren. He smiles. "Eetakka tupid."
"Stupid," Ren laughs. "I know."
"Ah? Tooka an derra tanda, Danielle?"
"Yes. It's easy to understand you."
"Twenty seconds," Naraku chimes.
"C'mon Chibi Shaman just tell me the three words that I wanted to hear from you."
Danielle smiles. "Danielle," she mutters happily, "sore tooka."
"Time is-" Naraku begins."
"I love you."
"Up. I guess it's time to move on to-"
"Hold on, Naraku," Ren begins with a smile. "I think that I won. She said I love you. Or, more specific, 'Danielle adores you'. it's still the same. I won, you lost."
"Are you sure?" he turns to Danielle. "Is he right?"
"Not until you win the trails. Is he right, Danielle?"
"Sadly for you,"
"he's right," Danielle completes for Ren. Ren gives a proud smile to his enemies.
"One for me, zero for you."
"But how is that possible?" Jax questions. "I didn't understand a word she said."
"It was simple," Hao explains. "In every sentence the 2nd word was missing its first letter."
"So 'ate' was the word 'hate'."
"Correct. And 'm' was 'am'. 'Dore' was adore, the French word for love. And 'tupid' was 'stupid'. Next was peoples names. She could say them perfectly, but she couldn't say I or you."
"And she usually says hate with 'I hate you' so,-"
"We put two and two together. 'Ninaskishi' became 'I' and 'tooka' became 'you'." He turns to Ren, who was glaring at Naraku and Sesshomaru with a heated passion. "Although, I don't know how Ren figured out the rest."
"I figured that he was just making her say a few words that he knew she would say. He probably knew that she would say 'I love you' to him."
"Yes, but that could mean that he's been using her heart."
"Do you honestly believe that I'd use her?" Ren snaps, quietly. "I'm not to sure about you, Hao, or you, Jax, but I'd never use her." He looks at Danielle, smiling with all of his love for her. "We have too much in common for me to betray her. It'd be like betraying myself. I can't afford to lose you, Danielle. I love you." After she gives him a smile, he turns to Naraku and Sesshomaru and glares at them. He gives them a proud smirk. "It was simple you idiots. I can read her thoughts." They stare at her, then at Ren in disbelief. "Well, where's the last trial?"
Naraku takes Danielle in the castle. "You can rest for a few minutes," Sesshomaru calmly begins. "For it will take a while."
"Where is she going?"
"Calm down, Shaman. We're not running away. Naraku is producing a double of her. "
"Since he's a shape-shifter, one will be the real Danielle and the other will be-"
"Naraku. Yes." He smiles. "Down to the last scar and cell. Since you, Ren Tao, had solved the last one. Leaving Jax Churchill or Hao Asakara."
"It's Asakura," Hao interrupts. He smirks. "I'll do it."
"But what about me?" Jax asks. Hao turns to her and put his hand on her shoulder. He smiles sadly.
"You'll be needed afterwards. There's going to be a fight and you'll be needed then."
"I don't understand."
"You will understand when the time comes."
"Alright. Oh look, here she comes." Of course, Jax was referring to the two Danielle's that walk out of the castle. They are wearing a strapless white dress each that begun on their mid chests and ended a little above their mid thighs. They were bare foot.
"God, I'd hate to see Naraku in that dress." The girls didn't do a thing. "Well, this is going to be harder than I thought."
"Hao," Ren snaps, "no time to waste. You have five minutes. That's what Sesshomaru said." Sesshomaru nods.
"Alright!" Hao laughs. "Just enough time for me to find the true one."
He walks up to the girls. He takes out a knife and cuts the palm of his hand. They look at him in fear. He begins cutting up his arm. "Hao! What the fuck are you doing!"
"Shut up, Ren. I'm busy here." He slices himself for the twenty-seventh time.
"Hao! Stop it!" One yells, running to him. The other, dazed at the moment grabs at his hand that holds the knife.
"Danielle! Give me the knife!"
She shakes her head. She begins cutting herself over and over and over again. The blood was seeping down her arms. He smirks.
"Sesshomaru, I know who the real Danielle is." He looks at the girl that is far away from him. "You are."
The girl clinging to him backs away, transforming back into Naraku. His clothes turn back into his black kimono. He glares.
"Ohhhh," Hao moans, pretending to be disappointed. "And I wanted to see you in that little dress."
"Smart ass," Naraku growls "How's you-"
"Know? Oh that was simple." He smiles with his wounds healing in a matter of seconds. "I have no reason to hurt myself. I would do it only with reason. Although she is of flesh and blood, you are not. The fear in your eyes was because you thought I was going to cut the both of you but I didn't. Instead, I cut up myself. You knew that she cared a lot about her friends. So you ran to me, but then she grabbed my knife. That is what she would do. She would show how she truly feels. And she was hurt by my actions. So she sliced herself."
"Tricking us both in the process."
"Of course. So give us her."
Naraku smiles. "You used trickery, so shall we."
"Hao! Watch out!" Ren yells. "Bason! Unity!" Bason, Ren spirit, goes into Ren's body. He defends an attack to Hao's head with his Kwan Dao (a/n: a long staff with a sword at the top). "You told me that I'd get her back!" He was blocking Naraku's sword from Hao's head.
Naraku smirks, beginning a sword fight with Ren. "I made no such promise. " Jax sees Sesshomaru tries to attack Ren.
"Hao!" Jax screams. "Sesshomaru's attacking Ren!"
"I'm on it!" Hao yells back. "Hey, Dog Boy! Two on one ain't right!" They being fighting. Hao quickly glances at Jax. "Go find, Danielle!"
"Gotcha!" She looks for Danielle. She spots her and becomes extremely worried. "On no, Danielle!"
She was on the ground. Not moving. She runs to her friend. She was in a pool of blood. Hao's knife still in her hand. Jax cradles her friend's head. Her eyes were closed as if in a painful peace.
"Danielle, wake up." Her friend doesn't move. "Danielle? You promised me that you wouldn't kill yourself."
"She's not dead." Jax looks up and practically screams. In front of her was a ghost. He was about 5'9", had grayish silver hair and bright greenish-blue eyes. He wore a red kimono with black outlines that had only one long sleeve. The arm with a missing sleeve had an arm protector on his wrist. She could see a mesh tank top under the kimono jacket. He was about twenty seven years old.
"Dankitto! Oh my god, you gave me a heart attack!"
"Sorry, but maybe you pay attention more. I've been standing with her since she was kidnapped."
"Oh, sorry." She turns to her unconscious friend. "Will she be okay?"
Dankitto, Danielle's spirit, looks down at the shaman. "She won't be living soon, "He spots the knife. "She cut herself up pretty badly."
"Why'd she do it?"
"She's fed up with life. She just wants to give up."
"But wouldn't she become like you?"
"What? A dead Chinese archer ninja?"
"No. A wandering spirit."
"Yes. We'll both be wandering spirits."
"We'll you both be dead by suicide?"
He looks at her as if she was insane, then he looks at Hao with brief hated. Hao and Ren in a stalemate with Naraku and Sesshomaru. "When I came to Japan in it's feudal times, Hao killed me because I flirted with Danielle."
Jax looks at him, confused. "They're old geezers?"
"No, that was in their past lives."
"How'd you find her after she died?"
"I've always been with her. I guess that's why she calls me her guardian angel."
"Is it painful for you to see her die?"
"It is very painful for me. That's you have to save her."
"What? Me?"
"Yes, you see the sword that the inu-yokai has?"
She looks at Sesshomaru. "Oh, the tensaiga?"
"Yes. I want you to get it."
"But how? They're fighting, I'll get killed!" She pauses, thinking. "I'm not a shaman, but Danielle is. How 'bout-?"
"If I go into her body and use up her energy, she'd die faster and I won't be able to use it in time. You have to do it."
She looks at the knife. Danielle's bloody hand was loosely around it. "I'll take this," Jax whispers, attempting to take it while Danielle was there sleeping peacefully on the verge of dying. "She looks so much like a wikko kid. Danielle, if you can hear me, I'm taking this so I can save you." She tries to grab it, but Danielle grips it harder. Her eyes open weakly. "Danielle give me the knife!"
"She says no."
"What? I didn't her a thing."
"Because she's saying it in her head."
"Come on, Danielle! Give it."
"She says, 'No. I will not, I rather die first than to see you all die. Besides, I'm useless. I have no reason to live-"
"That's not true."
'Yes it is. I'm just killing you guys off in the end. Don't worry.'
"Don't WORRY! How the fuck wouldn't I!
"I'm going to be reborn. Maybe I'll come back by becoming your child."
"I am not!"
"Are too. Besides no one loves me-"
"Ren loves you. Hao loves you. Dankitto loves you. Jenn loves you. Hey," Jax flashes a smile. "I love you too. And you have all those shamans. And Jun. Gotta love Jun. And Ren-"
"You already said him."
"I know. But do you honestly know how much he loves
you?"
"Well-"
"He practically dies for you!"
Fear flashes in Danielle's eyes. "Jax! I don't want to die! I'm scared!" Tear flow freely down her face, intermingling with blood. Jax holds her hand.
"Don't worry, Dani. As soon as I figure out a way to get the tensaiga-"
"Tell Lian that I love him."
"Who's Lian?"
"That's Ren's Chinese name."
"Oh…wait why do you say that?"
"Jax face it. I'm out of time. I'm…"
"Danielle?"
"She's not answering."
"Oh my god. No!"
"Jax, get away!" Ren yells, running to them. Jax backs up, seeing a sword in his hand. He embraces the limp girl with tears in his eyes.
"What about Hao?"
"Sesshomaru was trapped by Naraku. Somehow Naraku must've mistaken him for Inu-Yasha and attacked, killing the dog demon in the process. Naraku is injured badly, so it shouldn't be a problem. Here. He hands her the sword. "Do it quick. Hao could get in trouble. Or Danielle can stay dead- forever."
"Do it-?"
"Jax quit at the jokes and save her GOD Damn it!"
"Okay!" She slices the two in one swing, Ren's wounds heal so does Danielle's but, she still doesn't move. "Oh no! I waited too long!" She falls to the ground, crying.
"Jacquie…" Danielle mumbles, curling up to Ren's chest. "Please quiet down. I'm tired." Ren smiles, kissing her forehead.
"You're ALIVE!" Jacquie cries, jumping around, "Oh my god! I did it!"
"Yeah, Yeah, celebrate later." Danielle lets out a yawn. "Sleep now."
Hao walks up to them. "Hey she's alive!" he comments.
"And trying to sleep."
"Hey, I borrowed Dankitto to kill Naraku."
"S'okay.
Long as you two aren't fighting." She closes her eyes, sleeping.
"Well," Jax begins, Dankitto standing beside her. "At least this is over." She pauses, turning to Ren. "How'd she know that I'm pregnant? I didn't tell anyone yet."
"She saw a little spirit enter you body last week. It told her that it was your baby," Ren begins. "His name is Kurama."
"REALLY!"
"Yes."
"Oh my GOD."
"Now let's go. We don't want the babies to worry."
THE END.
CS: Tada! All done! So how did you like it? Oh, I added Kurama in there because my friend that I based Jax off of absolutely adores him. Review please! No flames, if it's so hard to ask.
