Inuyasha stood alone in a field of fire. Blood covered his hands and was smeared around the hanyou's mouth.
Kagome's freshly dead body suddenly appeared before him. He bent down and held the girl in his arms. "I'm sorry." He whispered.
He then slashed her throat, the still circulating blood rushed out. Inuyasha put his already reddened lips to the wound and sucked the red fluid.
He pulled away when the blood stopped, droplets of it falling from his mouth as he took a deep breath of air.
He saw his reflection in the puddle of blood that had formed beneath her. His eyes were crimson and filled with lust.
The scar glowed and slowly began to spread. The growing wound smelled of horrible rotting flesh.
The sound of someone walking came from behind him. Inuyasha did not turn around but herd Naraku's voice say "Well done."
Suddenly a sharp pain hit his stomach. His vision began to blur and Inuyasha felt his own blood fall to the ground.
Naraku had cut him in half.
He laid there, yells of pain coming from his bloody mouth as the horrifying pain slowly overcame him.
Naraku stood over the dieing Inuyasha, a smirk on his evil face. The hanyou looked down at the reflection in his own blood.
This time what he saw was different. A strange monster with bloodshot eyes was the reflection he saw.
Naraku put his foot on Inuyasha's throat. "You have served your purpose." He said just before crushing the last moments of life out of this creature Inuyasha had become.
Inuyasha gasped for breath, waking up from the reoccurring nightmare. Sesshomaru was sitting beside him in the grassy field they had slept in that night.
The hanyou calmed down, wiping the sweat fro his forehead.
"The same dream." Sesshomaru asked. Inuyasha nodded in response. He had had that very dream every night for quite some time now.
He sat up, looking towards the horizon. It was already day. Inuyasha was surprised his brother hadn't woken him up sooner, but didn't question him.
That dream was torturing his mind even more. Sesshomaru had told him not to think of it, but despite his newfound trust of his brother, he could not keep his mind from the dream.
"Let's get moving." Sesshomaru said. He was already standing and offered a hand to help his little brother up.
Inuyasha took hold of it and was pulled to his feet. They immediately begin walking. They had felt Naraku's aura for days now but still couldn't seem to find him.
Inuyasha looked to his brother. He hadn't been acting like himself at all since he came to be with his older brother; he wanted to bring his old self back someway. Even if only in the smallest way.
"Oni-san…" Sesshomaru turned his head to his brother as Inuyasha spoke "why didn't you wake me earlier?"
He partly wanted him not to have an answer, so he could feel as if he could speak up and not be shot down, but Inuyasha had no such luck.
"I believe today we will find Naraku and I wanted you to get as much sleep as possible." He answered returning his gaze to wee he was walking.
"oh, umm… I-I sor…" Inuyasha mumbled, putting his head down, regretting ever doubting Sesshomaru's reasons.
"I am glad to hear your voice." He said, keeping his focus in front of him.
Inuyasha put his gazed at his brother and smiled. He was happy that him speaking was a good thing.
Suddenly visions of blood flashed before poor Inuyasha's eyes. He took deep breaths, trying to contain this horrible feeling.
This had been happening for awhile as well, no humans need to be near and yet he still feels the lust to see them scream in pure terror, knowing he would take there pathetic lives.
As these random urges grew stronger, his mind and will weaker. Inuyasha knows soon he will not be able to fight it any longer
"just alittle longer." He thinks, trying to not let it take over "Soon we'll find Naraku and the cure. I just need to hold on until then."
"Oni-chan!" Sesshomaru said, snapping Inuyasha out of his thoughts "He is here."
Inuyasha looked ahead. He saw a huge palace with a red barrier surrounding it. It was Naraku's keep. The journey had ended. But the fight, had just begun.
YEAH! Big showdown coming right up! squeal I love writing angst! RRRRREEEEVVVVVVVIIIIIIEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!
