Invisible Part 11 Inuyasha StoryI Understand
"You will pay," Sesshoumaru told Jaken coolly, and he kicked Jaken back who went sliding across the floor. "M-Mi Lord! Please I beg your forgiveness," Jaken pleaded. Kendell had saw at what Sesshoumaru was doing to Jaken, and she couldn't stand to see someone get hurt on her behalf. Sesshoumaru took out Tokijin and struck at Jaken, who had closed his eyes and screamed, knowing that would be the last breath he took. He heard something else get cut into, and blood splattered on him, then he heard Sesshoumaru drop the Tokijin, and say, "Why did you do that?" Jaken opened his eyes to see Kendell struggling on the floor to get up. "Because. . ." She said, "I don't. . .Want anyone else. . To. . .Get hurt because of me. . .This. . .Is all my fault." Then she closed her eyes and fell to the ground. "No, Kendell!" Rin cried, running into the room. "Wake up. . .Wake up," then Rin closed her eyes and rested her head on Kendell's bloody, almost lifeless body and cried her eyes out. Sesshoumaru narrowed his eyes as he saw the soul stealers that had come to take her. He pulled out the tensaiga as it pulsated and told Rin and Jaken to stand back.
They did as was told and then Sesshoumaru used the tensaiga on Kendell. The blood and everything had vanished and it merely looked as if she was doing nothing but in a deep sleep, until her eyes opened. She sat up and looked at them all. "Kendell," Rin jumped in Kendell's arms and Kendell hugged Rin. "Hello," she yawned. "Why did you do that?" Sesshoumaru asked her. "That was meant for Jaken." Kendell stood up. "That's why I did it. Jaken doesn't deserve to be killed because of me. Its not his fault that that had happened."
"It is, and this doesn't concern you, so stay out of this," Sesshoumaru told her. "No, I won't because it does concern me," said a stubborn Kendell. "Kendell, why did you do that?" Asked a very surprised Jaken. No one's ever done anything like that for me, Jaken thought, and his eyes started to swell up with tears for, really, the first act of kindness anyone has really showed him. "Oh, Master Jaken, you're crying," Rin said, as Jaken wiped away his tears. Sesshoumaru just narrowed his eyes and started to walk out of the room. "Jaken," Kendell called after Jaken, who was following Sesshoumaru, "I did that, because I understand." Jaken just stared at her, his mouth slightly open. "Come Jaken!" Jaken jumped, "Y-Yes Mi Lord." Then he ran after Sesshoumaru. "Rin, you stay with Kendell," he told Rin. "Yes Lord Sesshoumaru!" Rin said happily.
"Oh Sesshoumaru, you better not hurt Jaken or else," Kendell said bitterly sweet. Even her speaking in that tone made Sesshoumaru shudder and cringe as a chill went down his spine. "You will stay in this dungeon until I give the word you are free Jaken." Then Sesshoumaru walked out and left Jaken trapped in the dungeon with one large, powerful demon to guard the doors. "You heard Lord Sesshoumaru," he said to Jaken, even more coolly than Sesshoumaru talks. He had long red hair tied up in a pony tail, wore fine black armor, was carrying a lance and his eyes were purple, with the pupils like a dragon's. "What ever you say Yotobari," Jaken sighed.
"I need to speak with you," Sesshoumaru told Kendell, then he glanced at Rin, "alone." With that, Rin walked out of the room humming brightly and went outside into the garden. "Why did you do that?" He asked her again. "Like I already told you, because I understand." He stared at her long and hard, then said, "What do you mean by that?"
"I mean," Kendell sighed, "I know what Jaken's feeling."
"And what is that?"
"He only did that because. . ."
"Yes, get on with it."
Kendell scowled at Sesshoumaru and said, "Because it feels as if the one thing or person that you love more than anything that is the most precious to you is being stolen from you, and it hurts really really bad. . .I understand the feeling. . .Too often. And I often believe there's something wrong with me. . ."
There's nothing wrong with you, you're perfect, Sesshoumaru thought, he longed to say the words, but he couldn't bring himself to it.
"And. . .He only did that cause at the time, that seemed like the only thing that would work to have his dearest back. Not in that way," Kendell added quickly, "I simply mean. . .You are really the only thing Jaken has, and I'm the thief that comes in to take you away. To him it seems wrong and it hurts him and tears him apart inside. . .He's. . .Just Jaken, and he doesn't know how to express his feelings, but I know that's how he feels. I bet sometimes he wishes everything would just end. . .Well, at least that's how I feel sometimes. . ."
"Tell me when you've felt that way before. . .As you've just explained to me." Sesshoumaru said softly.
"Well, with my father. . .And when. . .The most precious people that I've loved more than anything and still do die off and leave me. . .All alone. . .I feel all alone and I curse myself and I despise destiny and fate for taking them from me. . .Always feeling as if its my fault. And sometimes," Kendell started to cry madly now, "Sometimes I feel that its my fault daddy got this way. . .When I'm lying down in bed at night, I ask and tell myself, 'What have I done to daddy?' or 'Daddy, I miss you, come back.' Even though that is my real father, he isn't the same person he used to be. . .And I think that it would be better if I never existed at all."
"Don't say that," Sesshoumaru hissed.
"Don't say what?"
"Don't say that it would be better if you never existed at all. Its not true."
Kendell just wiped away her tears and apologized to Sesshoumaru. "I don't mean to take you away from Jaken. . .And I want Jaken to know that your and his relationship hasn't ended or died out because of me." Then she walked away, with a recorder in her hand. She had recorded all of that for Jaken to hear.
Kendell walked down to the dungeon to see a fairly large demon standing there. "What is your business here, human?" He asked coolly. "I've come to see Master Jaken if that's not a problem. Lord Sesshoumaru permitted me down here. And what is your name?" Kendell asked him. "Yotobari, and if I find out you've been lying, I'll be sure to slay you." Then he walked off.
"Kendell!" Jaken cried. "Why are you here?" Kendell smiled. "Listen to this," then she started play it for Jaken to hear. After it was done tears filled Jaken's eyes. "Wow, you're emotional today, are you on the rag?" Kendell laughed. "No, its just no one's ever shown me so much kindness before. I'm so sorry Kendell! Please forgive me!" Jaken cried more. "I never had had a grudge against you Jaken. Of course you are forgiven." Jaken wiped away his tears. "You, Yotobari fellow, unlock the dungeon gates now." Kendell said. "No, it wasn't the Lord's orders to unlock it." He stood up. "Well, its my orders so do it." Kendell demanded.
"No, and I suggest you silence your mouth, or" He started, but Kendell broke in, "Or what? You'll tell my mother? Come off it honey, why are your panties up in a knot? Get over it," she walked pass him and picked up the keys. "Stop that! Now!" He attempted to attack her, who dodged him, jumped in the air and did a back flip, then she pushed herself off by his head with her hands, and kicked him in the back as she pushed off. He fell face down on the floor. "A human just did that to me?" He said angrily. She unlocked the gates, picked Jaken up, and she ran as fast as she could in the kimono. "Come back here!"
Yotobari followed Kendell and Kendell ran blindly. This continued for a good five minutes. "No watch out!" Jaken shouted in horror. Kendell turned around just in time enough to see she was headed for an open window. She tried to stop herself, but her feet wouldn't stop. She ran out of the window and her and Jaken were spiraling down from the very top of the castle to the ground. "Ah, Kendell wake up!" Jaken yelled, for the air pressure had knocked Kendell out cold. Jaken screamed. "LORD SESSHOUMARU!" He didn't know why he was screaming, because he knew no one could hear him.
Jaken closed his eyes, "Well this is the end!" In a matter of seconds, Jaken expected to feel his skull crush and everything going black, but, to his surprise, everything stopped. He looked up and thought Kendell was still unconscious, her powers were still active. Time had stopped and Kendell was glowing. Then, a barrier of black, and white wings wrapped around them. "She's an angel," Jaken marveled. They lightly landed on the ground and time went back to normal. Kendell just lied there, Jaken still wrapped in her arms. Jaken wriggled himself out of her arms.
"Lord Sesshoumaru! Lord Sesshoumaru! LORD SESSHOUMARU!" He yelled over again. "Would ya quit yer yapping!" Jaken heard Inuyasha say behind him. "Inuyasha!" Jaken hissed. "What are you and your little allies doing here?" Inuyasha hit him on the head. "Shut up!" "Inuyasha!" Kagome yelled. "What happened to Kendell?" Shippo asked, running up to her, and turning her over. "And why is there a feather on her nose?" Miroku knelt down and looked at Jaken sadistically. "You better start explaining, and fast." Jaken told them what had happened. "Whoa. . .Freaky. . ." Sango said. "Very," Miroku agreed. "Inuyasha, what are you doing here?" Sesshoumaru asked coolly. "No, My Lord, allow me, since this is all my fault this happened to that girl," Yotobari spoke, getting in front of Sesshoumaru. "Who the hell are you supposed to be?" Inuyasha asked him, pulling out his Tetsusaiga.
"I'm the one who shall defeat you. I am the Assassin of the Night. I am feared among many, and my name is. . .Yotobari!" He hissed. "Wait, not the famous Yotobari who is supposed to be a vampire? One of the most powerful and feared of the nocturnal creatures out there?" Sango said in alarm. Yotobari smiled, "I'm flattered you know of me." Sango touched Inuyasha's shoulder. "Watch out for this one Inuyasha," she said, "he's no joke." Inuyasha pushed her hand of his shoulder. "Yeah, yeah." Then he swung the Tetsusaiga in front of him, gripping it with both hands. "Kirara, get Kendell out of here!" Inuyasha had said. Kirara did as she was told, and started to approach Kendell, but Jaken jumped in the way.
"Don't you come near her," he said, pulling out his staff of two heads. "I will not let you take her!" Kirara roared at Jaken and knocked him out of the way with ease. She was about to put Kendell on her back, when Kendell spoke, "Put me down Kirara." Kirara put her down and Kendell walked over to Yotobari. "You. . ." She said. Yotobari just stared at her. "What?" He asked her. "You're supposed to be one of the most famous and powerful nocturnal vampire things or whatever and you're that gullible and weak? What a joke," she turned around and huffed. "Help these days." Yotobari's face flushed red in anger. "How dare you? Did you forget I'm the one saving you from them?" He asked her.
"Them!" She mocked. "Ha, you gotta be kidding me! This is some kind of joke! They aren't harmless at all, they are the ones that I'm supposed to be traveling with!" Then she laughed. She was laughing so hard that she had to lean her head on Yotobari's shoulder. "You're a strange woman," he commented, "I've never met one as queer as you." She stared at him sharply. "Queer as in strange, correct?" She shrieked. He covered his ears. "Ow, yes, yes!" Kendell was growling at him, and Yotobari could have sworn he saw smoke come from her nostrils, almost as if she's about to blow out fire any minute now. He jumped and he showed a nervous expression on his face.
"Frightening, isn't she?" Sesshoumaru asked, actually smiling, for really the first time ever! "I sense something coming. . .And its power is great," Kendell suddenly said, very serious. "Yeah, I feel it too," everyone felt it, it was coming straight for them. They braced themselves, when all of a sudden the power vanished. "Strange," Kendell said. Then from under the ground came a giant beast with fangs almost as long as its head hanging out of its mouth. "I shall devour this girl and gain her powers," he said, crushing Kendell in his hands. "Let her go now Ishigami!" Yotobari yelled. "You know that thing?" Sesshoumaru said. "Yeah, let's just say. . ." Yotobari spoke, "We aren't exactly the most friendliest of acquaintances." Yotobari spat on the ground. Kendell noticed this, as soon as the saliva hit the ground, it burned a whole into the ground. "ACID SPIT!" She yelled.
Yotobari smirked. "This'll be easy." Then he started to transform, and black demon, leathery wings sprouted out of his back and his eyes turned from purple to a maroon color and his pupils disappeared. He grew vampire fangs and his claws got a whole lot longer. He became quicker also. For as soon as he jumped, no one knew where he had gone. The demon stuck Kendell in a bag at his side. "Let me go you ass wipe!" She screamed. "Here we go!" Yotobari yelled making an airbourne attack at the demon. The demon looked up, and as Yotobari was about to kick him, the demon grabbed Yotobari's leg. Yotobari only smirked, then with one movement of his hand, he had hacked the demon's arm off. The demon yowled in pain. "Damn you bastard!" He swore. Yotobari pulled out a sword and stuck it through the demon's forehead, and then the sword came through his back. Yotobari cackled madly and Kagome turned her head, disgusted at the sight.
Kendell felt something heavy hit the bag, then it started to ooze through and it was thick and red. "Blood!" She then backed up. "EW!" She screamed. Yotobari punctured his fangs into the demon's neck, and jumped away from him with ease, not getting a single scratch on him. "I'm disappointed, I thought you had gotten stronger than that." Then he walked off. From the hole in the demon, Ishigami's neck came a light then it disappeared along with Ishigami's body. "I think that's good he didn't attack me now," Inuyasha said, searching for the words he wanted to say. Inuyasha's whole body shook with fear. Everyone's did except for Sesshoumaru and Kendell.
Yotobari had left a haunting aura in the atmosphere, and to be honest, Kendell quite found it enjoyable and alluring. She smirked slightly and whispered, "Yotobari. . ." Sesshoumaru had heard her, then his eyes became wide. Is she falling for him? He said in disbelief. Then he glared at Yotobari, resentment started to fill his whole essence.
