Chapter 1: The beginning
A/n: Obligatory disclaimer that I don't own Inuyasha or any of the characters. I'm just playin' with them.
Kagome placed her hands on her knees for a moment to catch her breath. To her left she could see Miroku using his wind tunnel to suck in many lesser demons and Inuyasha preparing to Tessaiga's Wind Scar attack on the 3 headed dragon demon in front of them. Sango was in the sky on transformed Kilala's back. She used Hiraikotsu to slice through a few of the flying eel demons. To her right was Sesshomaru. He had joined the fight a few moments after Inuyasha and the gang had. She suspected he had sensed Naraku's presence as well but she hadn't had time to ask him since they were, well… kinda busy.
Kagome straightened herself and started to charge toward the beast. One of its heads noticed Kagome getting close and swooped down knocking her to the side behind Sesshomaru. Ugh, that hurt. She thought making her way to her feet and rubbing her behind. Kagome waved Inuyasha off as he had seen her take a hit; effectively breaking the concentration he had built up to use Tessaiga.
"Child get back here!" A shrill voice yelled. Kagome looked back to the tree line where a small girl was in orange and yellow running towards Sesshomaru. "Rin!" The imp yelled. It all seemed to happen at once; Sesshomaru in a moment of distraction looked back to Rin, the beast roared catching Kagome's attention, and then the beast made to swipe at Sesshomaru. She barley had time to think before running and leaping around Sesshomaru to use her purifying powers to sever its left most head off. Dark purple goo coated her arms as she straightened herself. Ew. She truces to shake it off but was cut short as the middle head hit her in retaliation.
After flying briefly through the air she landed with a thud beside the girl, Rin. She reached out and grabbed her, stopping her from running towards Sesshomaru, and in turn, the battle. Seemingly content that his ward was no longer running towards danger he turned back to the beast to fight. Unfortunately for him the dragon had noticed she was a source of distraction.
Kagome watched as the demon conjured up a powerful poison ball in its mouth and aimed right for her and Rin. She moved Rin underneath herself and put up a small pink barrier around the two of them just as the demon spat the ball in their direction. She could barley hear the dragons screeches the two brothers finished it off in the hopes of saving their respective girls.
The poison was hitting her barrier hard, most of it eating away at the barrier before being purified. Most of the poison was gone by the time her barrier broke but what remained hit her and Rin's skin. The poison that hit her tingled but was purified before it could do any real damage. Rin on the other hand had passed out from pain as the remaining poison melted spots of her skin.
Kagome quickly got to work using her reiki to heal the worst spots as the demon brothers sped over. Sesshomaru growled and made to pull Kagome away but pulled his hand back when he received a sting from her reiki. This made him mad and he snarled at Kagome. His ward was injured and he couldn't get close without risking purification. Kagome glared over her shoulder at Sesshomaru.
"Would you shut up. I'm trying to heal her and your constant growling isn't helping my concentration." She snapped before turning back to Rin. Sesshomaru wasn't please but contained his growling to a low rumble. Kagome took a deep breath happy she could concentrate again and continued her work.
