Brian cocked his shotgun, aiming it at every single shadow that moved. A tall figure stood on top of a trash can. The top of his kimono was ripped off, showing his chest. He extended his claws towards them, his crimson eyes glowing brightly. The demon lunged towards Atem, who dodged the claws, and struck with his sword at the demon's chest. Inuyasha easily dodged the blade, and slashed Atem's chest, ripping his clothing, blood flowing down his front.
"Inuyasha, stop this!" Kagome shouted, leaving her the perfect target for the demon. He lunged towards Kagome, but Atem blocked the attack with his blade. Inuyasha leapt back onto the wall as Cloud readied his sword. The demon growled darkly, searching for a target.
"Don't hurt him!" Kagome begged with the others. "He's not himself!" She turned towards Inuyasha, her eyes filling with crystal tears. "Please, stop this! You can fight this! I've seen you fight this before, and you can do it again!" The demon stopped for a minute, hearing Kagome's sobs. Kairi raced towards him, preparing to slash at him, but Inuyasha stopped her by placing his hands onto the blade. Kagome stepped towards the demon, who moved away from her, growling. Each time she moved towards him, he moved back, being blocked by the Protectors, weapons in hand. They knew what Kagome was trying to do. The demon had nowhere to go as Kagome embraced him, sobbing.
"You can fight it, Inuyasha," she whispered to him. "Please. Just don't be like this anymore." A hand fell upon her head, stroking her hair.
"Kagome…" a soft voice reassured. Kagome looked up to see Inuyasha, his eyes no longer crimson and filled with hatred. He placed his left hand onto her body, holding her close. "Thank you." Tears of joy streamed down Kagome's face, the others putting their weapons away.
-Hotel lobby-
"So, what happened last night, Inuyasha?" Brian inquired, Kagome leaning against the half-demon. "Did someone come into your room?" Inuyasha shook his head, his eyes closing.
"I could feel something leave my body while I was asleep," he explained. "It was as if I became full demon, my human side gone completely. But luckily, Kagome stopped the process…for now, at least." The others agreed as Yugi stood up from them, heading to his room. Atem started to follow, but Cloud stopped him.
"I think he needs to be alone for a while," he muttered to the former Pharaoh.
-Yugi and Atem's room-
A dark shadow moved across the floor as Yugi sat on his bed, deep in thought about Inuyasha's condition. The shadow moved up to the wall, golden eyes glowing brightly. A dark hand reached out to the boy, snatching him as he squirmed to get away. Its grip was tight, disallowing the duelist to escape from its strong hold. The shadow moved into the wall, taking the boy with it.
What happened to Yugi, and will Inuyasha's inner demon be released again? Find out in chapter six!
