DDD2
(chapter two)
A year earlier, on the night of Hojo's death, in the feudal era.
"What are you doing Inu-Yasha?" asked Mariko, Miroku and Sango's second child. "It's just a well nothing more. Inu-Yasha?" Inu-Yasha sat on the edge of the well, peering in.
"I think she is back, Mariko," he whispered, jumping in head first. "OW! WHAT THE HECK!" Inu-Yasha jumped out of the well, glared at Mariko. "What went wrong?" He pondered for a few minutes.
"Well, dad, I think, put seals on it so no demons could get through."
"That was ten years ago, Mariko. They never worked in the past anyway." Mariko looked innocently at him.
"He has gotten stronger you know, and besides he just he sealed it again last week."
Inu-Yasha's left eye twitched. "WHAT!" he screamed, birds flew from their trees, and small demons ran and hid.
Same time, on the night of Hojo's death, in the modern era.
"Where is Kagome, human?" asked a male demon voice, showing his talons off at Hojo.
"She's at work still! What do you want with her?" Hojo was backed up against a door that led to the bathroom. The demon shoved him through the door and crashed into the tiles of bathtub. Blood dripped from his mouth, the tiles fell off beside him.
"Don't ask the questions, I do!" He advanced forward and grabbed his throat, bringing Hojo close to his face. "Are you what leads her into my arms? My lovely Kagome into my arms?"
"YOU'LL NEVER GET KAGOME, DEMON!" he shouted, attempted to punch the demon in his face. But the demon grabbed it and twisted, breaking it.
"ARGH!"
"Yes," he breathed, smelling Hojo's hair. "She spoke of you quite a lot, she told me of how much you cared about her and how much you deserved better than she. Shameful, I think, she could have chosen wiser. Least I get her 'til the end." He crushed Hojo's throat without another thought and threw him through the bathroom wall, so he fell outside dead. The demon chuckled into the darkness, and disappeared. "You will be mine Kagome."
