The group raced outside they had just made it to the wall when the dust started flying and the debris crumbled and they were surrounded by a group of men.
"Take them out!" came the order from inuyasha. He lunged forward and punched one of the guys another one came at him he lurched forward when inuyasha's hand went through his stomach. He watched the blood flow to the ground as he withdrew his hand and the man fell to the ground. He looked around to prepare for the next attacker to his surprise they had all been dealt with.
"That was to easy these men we just humans" he stated. Then he looked around them.
"Distraction." was all sesshomaru could say before they heard the next bals they froze as they watched part of the estate go up in chunks.
Ayame had already started towards the home.
"Yall handle this i got Kagome, sango will be here in ten with back up." she said as she ran.
Inuyasha hesitated he wanted to get to Kagome now he felt the warmth around him get warmer she was ok.
She gave a sigh of relief he was okay. Rin helped her to he feet and was trying to get her to the secret room sesshomaru had told her about. Kagome had her arm around rin and was struggling rin was a small petite woman who stood five foot three they headed for the set of french doors that headed out to the hallway that lead to the living area. She shoved the doors open and propped kagome against the wall she ran for a small medicine bag that sat in the corner of the small room across from them and grabbed it. She felt the house shake around them Kagome lost her footing as the walls crumbled and fell to the ground.
"Kagome!" rin yelled as she ran back to her.
"I'm sorry we have to pull this chest tube out now i can't get you to safety and hall this machine with us too." she told her
Kagome nodded her head. She knew rin wass right she just wasn't ready for the pain that came with it.
"Okay rin." kagome told her rin pulled kagome's shirt up some.
"Kagome i need you to hold your shirt up, i'm going to count to three then pull." rin explained to her. Kagome again nodded her head. She took in a small breath and watched rin place her hand at the base of the tube where it went into the skin.
"One, two." rin didn't make it to three she just pulled the tube and watched it come out. Kagome's scream could be heard outside the men looked towards the house and that's when the scent of blood hit them.
Ayame had just rounded the corner when the scream reached her ears.
She picked up the pace, she had just rounded the corner of the living area when she ran across two men that had came through the new hole in the wall,
"Not today." she said she leaped on the back of one and snapped his neck just as the other turned and raised his gun up at her. She went low kicked the intruder in the knee then kicked him in the face. Another man had just climbed in when she saw him he had her in his sights,but she was faster. She had pulled her gun out of it's holster and shot him before she took off running. She followed the scent of kagome's blood and just made it to the other women before the house began to shake again. Rin had just got kagome to her feet when they felt the house shake again.
"Kagome are you okay?" rin asked her
"That hurt." kagome said with a small smile.
"You can get me back for it later, we have to get out of here. I need to find a place to stitch that wound." rin said to her. The doors flung open then and to their relief it was Ayame.
"We have to get somewhere safe." ayame told them any other time they would have gave her a smartass commit but each nodded and ayame took kagome's other side and helped rin get her to the study. When they heard boots on the hardwood floors. Ayame let go of kagome and turned to her friends.
"Get kagome to safety i will buy you some time ." she told them as she got ready for a fight. Rin nodded and pulled kagome towards the other doors.
"Hang on kagome we just have to get through these doors and down the hall." she said to her friend. She could tell kagome was getting weaker. She also knew she was in alot of pain.
'Ayame be careful' kagome thought as she struggled to keep up with the small woman beside her.
Rin shoved the doors open and was leading kagome down the hallway when the heard more footsteps coming in fast not far behind them. They picked up pace and was just about to make it to the secret door when kagome felt a sharp pain in her chest. She stopped moving,
"Kagome what's wrong we are almost there we must hurry." rin urged her to keep moving.
"I felt a pain in my chest but it wasn't me i think inuyasha is hurt." she explained to her friend.
He had just made it to the side of the house when someone out of nowhere decided they were going to stab him. He winced as he pulled the bladed out. He looked at the puny man that stabbed him and lifted him in the air and tossed him to the side. He felt the warmth around him grow stronger and he watched as a small light came out of nowhere and his wounds were gone he felt completely fine he didn't even feel fatigued.
They took care of the humans that had came first. He smelt the demons they were surrounded by them,but yet he didn't see them. He had a small earpiece going in his ear. He could hear the others giving an update on everything.
"We are good on my end" hakkaku told them.
"Clear here." koga told them.
"Good here." miroku said.
"This isn't over yet. We are surrounded." sesshomaru told them.
"I noticed them too. These humans were just the first of the pawns. He is here also.": inuyasha said.
"Ayame what's your report?" koga asked.
He was getting upset each second she didn't respond right away.
"Ayame?!" he yelled.
"Good on my end they are in the house rin has kagome we….." ayame said before the line went out.
"Ayame?" Koga almost yelled.
She was about to tell the others we have more incoming when she was attacked. She got caught from behind and grabbed. She reared her head forward and slammed it backwards making contact with her asalients nose. He staggered back grabbing his nose, ayame took the opportunity to turn around and slam her fist in the man's stomach then knee him in the head. She took off towards the way rin and kagome went. She heard the click and felt the sharp pain as the bullet grazed the skin of her arm, she looked at the wound
'Nothing but a scratch' she thought as she charged the man she moved at lighting speed he didn't have time to react. She grabbed the gun and smacked him with the butt of the rifle and watched him fall. Another man came around the conor fast and she shot him. She turn fast and kept moving she had to catch up to the others.
"I'm on the way to kagome and rin we are okay for now but we have more incoming and the demons are starting to attack." Ayame told the others as she kept moving. She knew that she had to be fast there was no telling how many demons there was or what kind there was.
"Find them and stay with them we will be there as soon as we can." Koga said to her.
"They should be headed for a safe room find it and follow the tunnels that lead out. At the rate they are going the whole house shall fall." Sesshomaru said to her.
She ran through the last set of doors and started down the hallway she found the other two women tucked back into a corner in part of the wall. She went to where they were Rin put a finger to her lips to give her the signal to stay quiet. She nodded her head. She heard the door steps and then heard them stop. Someone stopped at the end of the hall. The man was tall and had medium length dark brown hair he wore it on a pony tail and had on all black. He was fumbling with an earpiece and pulled out a small radio. He was constantly looking around him. He finally put the earpiece in and started talking,
"I'm in we have to move fast they plan to swarm the house. He's desperate to get her." the voice came over. Ayames earpiece and she stood frozen. Can this guy be trusted. She didn't know anything about a person infiltrating the enemy.
"Good to hear your still alive. Have you found them yet? Ayame can you hear this?" Inuyasha said to them both.
She didn't reply for a moment. She caught the scent of a demon moving in on them. At a fast pace. She motioned for Rin and Kagome to stay where they where. She rounds the corner just as the demon was about to come around she hit him in the throat and watched as he grabbed it. She then used her claws to pull his heart out his chest.
"Inuyasha are you sure about him?" Ayame asked him
Inuyasha's voice wasn't the one that came over next.
"In here and brought word from kohaku? Sango asked.
"I'm here I'm in the house. Ayame we need to get her out now." Kohaku said to her.
She came back around the corner and he seen her. She nodded her head She walked to the small hole in the wall and picked up kagome. She nodded to Rin.
"Has on our side."she told her. She nodded Ayame offered her hand to Rin to help her up. They took off at a slight hog to the end of the hall.
"Okay Rin show us the door. We need to get out of here."Ayame told her.
Rin nodded her head,
"It's here."she told them. Ayame looked like it was just a wall. They were pretty well at a dead end here.
She watched as Rin went to a picture frame that hung up and lifted it some. She placed her small hand under it and then they heard a click sound.
"I'm going to need a little help with this." she said looking at kohaku.
He nodded his head at her and followed her instructions. He gave the wall a good shove.
They watched as a door opened and hurried inside. Once inside Kohaku gave the wall another good shove and closed it behind them.
"We made it to the safe room." Ayame told them over the earpiece. They all wore.
"Good to hear how is Kagome and Rin holding up?"Miroku asked over the headset.
Ayame had just sat Kagome down and was about to ask when they felt the walls quake.
"What the hell is their plan take out the house and kill us that way?" Rin asked.
"In a manner of speaking yes. They will stop at nothing to get her. Kohaku said pointing to Kagome.
She was too tired to pay attention to what they were saying. She hurt so much. She felt herself start to slip into the darkness. She just needed sleep. She felt her connection with Inuyasha slip and she forced the reconnection.
Inuyasha had just killed one of the demons that had been blocking him from getting inside the house when he felt the warmth fade then he felt it again but it was slightly different. It felt slightly colder than the other times.
"Ayame give Kagome your earpiece." he demanded.
"Get out of my way!." he screamed as he ripped the head off of a demon. He waited a moment he could hear the transfer.
"Inuyasha." Kagome voice came through. It made his heart skip a beat.
"Kagome how are you holding up?" he asked his voice was gentle and caring.
"I'm okay are you okay? How is your chest?" she asked him.
"Better thanks to you listen I need you to hold in there a little longer for me. Do you think you can do that? Do you still have your necklace on?. He said to her.
She could tell he was still fighting even while talking to her.
"I'll hold on Inuyasha I promise and yes I have it on." she told him
"Good I need you to pull it out so you can see it. Gold your in a safe spot red your not. Use that to get you and the others safely out of here." he told her
"Your not coming with me?" she asked you could hear the fear in her voice.
"I'll be right behind…."he was cut short
"Inuyasha…. Inuyasha!?" she yelled
"We are going to have to fall back and regroup there is just to many." Sango said.
"Anyone see the mutt?" Koga asked.
Sesshomaru didn't say anything even he was starting to get fatigued. He scanned the are and found inuyasha. He was surrounded. He watched as the half demon sent one of the demons flying there were still two around him. He watched Inuyasha charge one of them. He was about to to spin around and deal with the other one when one knocked him to the ground. Sesshomaru was there in a blink. Of anyone was going to kill Inuyasha it was him. He sliced through the demons and grabbed Inuyasha and went to the others.
"We have to do something." Miroku said panting.
"We can't keep this up we need a new plan." hakkaku said.
"No matter how many we take down more show up. This is almost pointless." Ginta said looking at the group.
"Kohaku did you make it to the safe room With the girls?" Sesshomaru asked.
"Yes we are here. Kagome is weak and Rin is starting to stitch up a wound in her." he explained
"What wound is she hurt!?" Inuyasha demanded to know.
Rin explained what happened to her to Kohaku who then told Inuyasha.
"Kagome do you think you can go on?"Inuyasha asked her in a more gentle tone.
"Yes I just need to rest for a moment." She told him.
"Kagome I seen you heal Inuyasha earlier do you think that you can heal yourself?" Mushin asked her.
"I don't know I can't say that I've tried. The whole conversation. Came to an end as they watched more of the home fall.
Ayame looked at Rin who nodded her head it was an unspoken agreement. Rin out the last stitch in kagome who looked like she was watched her necklace and so far it was gold. They would let her rest before they tried to move forward. Ayame had gathered the headset and the radio and put them back on.
"How are you guys holding up out there?" she asked the others.
"You know we are good covered in god knows what and well we are peachy." Hints said.
"We are holding in there. And you?" Koga said.
"We are safe for no Kagome's resting then we will move on."Ayame told them.
She became quiet as she heard voices and footsteps just on the other side of the door.
She looked at Kagome She could see the moon start to turn red. She looked closer at Kagome who had started to flow slightly she had a purplish pink hue around her.
"Where is that power coming from?" Miroku asked.
"That's to strong for either of us my boy." Mushin said over the headset.
The group heard screams just outside the door.
"What the hell is this?!" came a voice outside the heard one of the men say.
Rin watched as kayo e flowed the light was something she had never seen before. The woman started to rise up off the floor then. They watched Kagome in awe. She was regaining her color. She was no longer pale and they could see the wound Rin just stitches in starts to fade. Almost as if nothing was there to start with.
"We have a strange situation here."Kohaku said over the headset.
"What's going on do you know where the power is going from?" Mushin asked.
"One of the demons are backing away from the house!"Miroku shouted.
"Kagome's glowing." Kohaku stated.
"That's what has them running they can feel the power. She must be trying to heal herself.
"Looks like she has unlocked them all."Miroku said.
Each of them were panting they knew this was going to be a fight but they didn't think it was going to be quiet like this. Even the demons were at the last of their energy.
