The Chapters
Megan felt her life slipping away, as Beth used her claws to pierce into her skin. She went flying back, hitting a tree with a thud. She blacked out after this, not knowing where she was or what had just happened to her.
She got up and looked around for a familiar background to remind her where she was. With no luck, she looked down at her hands and gasped. She looked like she normally did, but something stuck her as odd. She may have looked the same, but she felt different.
Concentrating with all her might, she tried to remember something that had recently happened to help her with this puzzle she had. "Ok, I remember… claws. That must mean that I was in a fight with something. Oh, of course I was, I had that armor and sword that John gave me. I lost the armor and sword in the fight when… ummm." At that moment, Megan felt the burning rage inside her swell up as she realized what had happened to her.
"NO! NOT AGAIN. I CAN'T BE DEAD AGAIN! BETH, I'LL GET YOU FOR THIS." She stomped the ground and gave a horrible scream. "I WILL KILL THEM ALL AND BETH SHALL BOW DOWN BEFORE ME BEFORE I SEND HER ON HER FIERY TRIP TO HELL. That will teach them. THAT WILL TEACH THEM ALL NOT TO MESS WITH MEGAN MYUSAE, PRIESTESS OF THE DARK ARTS OF HATE! I shall be the queen of this world, with Sesshomaru by my side. CURSE YOU BETH, CURSE YOU FOR TAKING HIM FROM ME!"
She started to slightly calm down as she realized that there was no escape. "If only there was a way for me to get back, I'd show her. I'd show them all to fear me, but I have no way back. Surely John wouldn't bring me back. He wouldn't waste the effort to she me mess up again." She just stood there, trying to think of a way out of this predicament.
Suddenly, the rotting soul swirled around her and captured her before her decision between eternal-life in heaven or burning up in Hell was decided. She willingly allowed herself to be taken by the souls. It carried her to an unknown location as she began to feel shocks all around her, but they didn't hurt. The souls separated and disappeared, leaving her spirit to tumble down, and down, and down, and… no thud.
There was a tingling sensation all over her body as the souls came again and surrounded her. It felt like they would never go away, when they were only there for a few seconds. In a flash, the souls vanished. She opened her eyes and saw the ground on which she lied.
She jumped off the ground and started herself. Pound to have the look of flesh upon her, but as she glanced over from looking at her hands, she could see, at a distance, Beth had already beaten her to the Hall. As furious as she felt, she decided it'd be better to go to her brother for the answers to what had happened. "Don't worry, I'll be back soon Sesshomaru," she whispered as she blew a kiss in his direction. Putting on the armor and sheathing her sword, she used the power of the souls to take her back to the castle.
She appeared right in front of her brother, as though he expected her to be there. They were facing each other in a serious, but cold look, full of fury and anger. It took a moment before anything was said, but John finally spoke. "I heard from my souls that you FAILED in destroying the Wolf Priestess Hall for me," John informed her, wearing a smile that resembled his happiness in her downfall.
"Well, I believe I told you before that Beth was a tough opponent," she shot at him.
"Seriously, how hard could it be to kill of a wolf priestess, they can't possibly have that much strength, especially for a half-demon. Sesshomaru would be a problem, but now they are armed with all her priestesses, that could possibly over power us if we don't get more "allies"," he spoke, saying allies in an evil tone. The allies they had were the processed corpses John was controlling after all.
"If you add her snot-nosed daughter, their green mess-up house maid, and Cameron into the picture," she began to say.
"WHAT! WHAT DO YOU MEAN THAT CAMERON IS WITH THEM AND WHAT MAID ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?" John furiously interrupted.
Megan had a wife smile. "What, do you know Cameron? Has he been beating up my big strong brother? The house maid is Jaken of course." She was feeding off John's rage.
John cleared the anger from his expressions as best he could. "Well, I wasn't expecting them to be there to help. I've heard that Cameron is a very skilled assassin of sorts, but the other two just add numbers to their group."
"You know as well as I do that numbers can be a big deal." She waited for John to tell her what they should do.
John pondered on the thought for a moment. "Very well. If it's numbers you want, than it's numbers we'll get. A short distance from the Hall is a village. You need every ounce of energy to defend yourself, so I'm going to remove the spell I placed upon you and let you use your magic again. Destroy the village and that will add the numbers we'll need." He held out his hand and clenched it into a fist as he pulled it back; causing the yellow spell that was upon her to disappear. Her powers were back.
"Thank you, after putting such a spell on me, so that you would be able to over power me. I consider this an honor to be freed by you," she lied threw her teeth. "This will be a simple task now." With that, she stepped onto the pad that sent her away from the castle.
John stood up and looked at where she had stood in front of him and again at his hands that broke the spell. "What… have I done?"
Inside the Wolf Priestess Hall, Emma had taken everyone into a room where they could rest and talk amongst themselves, while Emma prepared the other priestesses for Beth. Rin, who was very excited about the priestesses, followed Emma. The rest of them sat at a table were they were getting a little to eat.
"Cameron, if you do anything to any of the other priestesses, you'll be sorry," Beth warned.
"I know I'll be sorry," replied Cameron, "I wouldn't want anyone, but Emma with me."
"You know exactly what I mean Cameron. No more of this," Beth snapped.
"I understand completely. I will wait for Emma as long as love can last forever and longer." Cameron sighed.
"Don't worry about it Beth, he will be good or he'll answer to me," Sesshomaru informed.
"I can take care of it if there ever is a problem." Beth, who was slightly tired and in a flirtatious mood laid her head upon Sesshomaru's shoulder, whispering to Sesshomaru, Beth spoke cutely, "I love my fluffy."
Sesshomaru caringly wrapped his arm around her and gave her a small kiss on her forehead. "I love you too, my angel." Nobody poked fun at the couple, but rather allowed them to have their moment together. Cameron knew it was better to let them be happy than teasing them, which would destroy the mood for them. Rin was happy that her parents were like this, showing that they'll take care of each other when they're married. Jaken knew that when things like this happened, Sesshomaru really did love Beth as much as she loved him and proved that Sesshomaru could really be happy with a half demon for the rest of his life.
Emma walked into the room. "If you're ready, please follow me," she softly spoke with a smile on her face. Cameron was the first one over to her and gave a small smile. Jaken and Rin came over, followed by Beth and Sesshomaru, after Beth gave a small smile up at Sesshomaru. They followed Emma to a room where all the priestesses were. They all heard a scream from inside the room. Emma flung the door open and gasped, "WHAT ARE YOU DOING?"
In the middle of the room, Miroku, a monk, stood in front of Rin. Miroku was stroking Rin on her bottom. Beth and Sesshomaru ran over to him in a rag and simultaneously smacked Miroku. Sesshomaru picked Rin up in his arms as Beth was hugging the frightened and confused child. Sesshomaru turned to Miroku. "If you ever do that again you will pay for it with your life."
Beth was trying to calm Rin down the best she could. "Rin, he's an idiot and we'll make sure that if he even thinks about doing that again, he'll be in big trouble." Beth walked over to Miroku and slapped him with all her might, knocking the monk onto the floor. "YOU HEAR ME MIROKU."
Miroku got up slowly. "Hey, so what are you doing here?" He asked this question, for he knew it was best not to say anything to upset the couple any further and he couldn't think of anything else to ask.
"It's my Hall you moron. I can and WILL COME HERE WHENEVER I WANT," she snapped at Miroku.
Jaken looked over at Sesshomaru. "My Lord, shouldn't we be informing the priestesses of what is going on?"
Beth just remembered this, having forgot it while she had been filling her mind up with ideas of how to dispose of Miroku. "Oh, I forgot all about that." She turned around to see Cameron just put his hand on top of Emma's. "Do you want me to hit you to?" They pulled their hands away. "That's more like it. Now I can pay attention," she snapped at Cameron.
"Ok everybody," Beth announced, "some strange things have been going on here. Megan and John have joined forces, but everyone knows as much as I do that they loathe each other with a passion. We know this, because Sesshomaru killed her by my palace yesterday and John brought her back that time. Right before we came here, we killed her again, but it wasn't John that brought her back. That's why we need to figure out the best way of taking care of these fools," Beth had started.
"Hot… it's burning hot… from FIRE," Cameron thought out loud as he rushed over to the window.
"What are you going on about now? I'm trying to explain what's going on," Beth groaned as everyone went over to peer out the window. They saw smoke coming up from the ground.
Sesshomaru pulled gently on Beth's hand. "We need to go. Everyone, come on."
They all headed down to the village, which was indeed on fire. People were running everywhere and when they got down there, a woman came rushing over to them
She wore a veil that covered her face just below her eyes, so they couldn't tell who she was. "Please help us. That girl is going to kill us all."
"Ok, help out everyone you can find," Beth commanded. The only ones left in front of the woman were Beth, Sesshomaru, Rin, Jaken, Cameron, and Emma. When the woman saw Beth, she glanced away.
Suddenly, Megan came into sight. "Oh, so you've finally made it. What a pleasant surprise. I can't believe you didn't come sooner," Megan hissed.
"YOU, YOU WILL PAY FOR THIS! YOU SHOULDN'T BE ABLE TO DO THIS WITHOUT YOUR MAGIC!" Beth was furious.
"Ohhhhh, you poor thing, you must be devastated. John actually gave it back to me," Megan mocked.
"Enough talk. We shall rip you apart," shot Sesshomaru.
Megan brought out her sword. She used a spell that brought some undead demons to attack. Rin used and orb to blast them to the side and Jaken and Rin ran to hack them apart. Beth turned into a wolf and jumped onto Megan, biting her neck, and backing away to transform into a human again. Megan grabbed her neck, letting a green light heal the wound. She got up and pointed a flaming orb at Rin, but Eric and Emma used a spell to immobilize Megan. Jaken and Rin came back over, done finishing of the puppets Megan sent out, and Jaken hit Megan with his staff. Megan was brought down to her knees. Rin used her magic to give herself claws, then Beth Sesshomaru, and Rin slashed Megan. Emma and Cameron stepped in front of Megan, stopping the spell. Cameron used a flaming phoenix and Emma attacked her with a ghostly ice blast. Megan covered herself in green light, healing magic, and got up.
"I've done what I've come here to do. Now I shall take my leave until the next time we meet. With my magic back, none of you can defeat me." Megan wore a wide smile on her face.
"YOU'LL DIE FOR THIS!" Beth came charging at Megan, who was taking her sword out of her sheath. Beth saw the sword and tried to stop, but she fast enough. Sesshomaru came rushing over to help Beth. Megan, sword in the air, was ready to slice Beth, who stopped right in front of her. Sesshomaru forced his sword into the air to defend against Megan's attack.
Koga came from behind her and threw Megan onto the ground. As Megan was getting up, Koga started to rapidly kick Megan. Megan was able to jump away from an attack and shouted, "I'll get you later for this." Corpses started getting up and surrounding Megan.
"The next time we meet you'll be slaughtered," Koga threatened. Megan had one of the corpses teleport them away. The village was now ashes and Beth could recognize some people that didn't live in the village. Coming towards them were Inuyasha, Kagome, Sango, Kilala, and Shippo.
Seeing Miroku by Beth Sango glared. "Just what exactly have you been doing?"
"He's been over at Wolf Priestess Hall and he felt my…" Rin started to explain.
Miroku, Hearing Rin, covered her mouth and said, "Her kitty. She got a new kitten and I got to pet it."
Sango looked shocked at him. "YOU DIDN'T DO SUCH A THING TO HER DID YOU? SHE'S ONLY 18 AND YOUR…" Sango started. She just glared at him as she clenched her fist.
Beth turned over to him. "Oh, I completely forgot about that. Thanks for reminding me."
"You better beg for mercy," hissed Sesshomaru. Together, Sango, Beth, and Sesshomaru slapped Miroku as hard as possible.
"It serves you right for doing such a thing," Kagome added.
"You stupid monk, LEAVE THE GIRL ALONE," Shouted an angered Inuyasha.
"Having a good time, you dog?" Koga teased.
Inuyasha turned and was furious. "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING HERE?"
Koga glared at him, "I saw the fire and came to see what had happened."
Beth looked over at Koga. "Thank you for saving me, daddy."
Koga smiled at his daughter. "Your welcome." They hugged each other. They had been apart for a long time.
Inuyasha was dumbfounded. "Huh… than… when her and Sesshomaru… I'll… but it can't"
Koga smiled at Sesshomaru. "I take it you're my daughter's fiancé. Take good care of her."
Sesshomaru a nod, "Don't worry, I'll protect her with my life."
Inuyasha just mumbled to himself. "Ok, Beth is Koga's daughter and Beth is going to marry Sesshomaru, so that means."
"I'm going to be your father-in-law," Koga spoke with a laugh.
The woman with the veil walked over to Koga. "Thank you for helping us."
"It was no big deal, really. I didn't do much." Koga smiled at the woman.
"You stilled helped the village and for that I am grateful." A strong wind blew and the veil fell from her face. Koga and Beth both stared in shock.
Beth finally had the courage to ask, "Mom?" Silence filled the air as the woman slowly nodded her head.
