We meet again

Nicole P.O.V.

It's been maybe 3 weeks. I haven't seen Sesshomaru. I've been fighting, keeping his words in my mind. I won this poor family lost of money. They gave me a shed to sleep in it has a bed and light. They give me food, but not a lot they want to keep me fit. I've been in my demon form for a long time. Eyes, ears, claws, fangs, and tail. I'm going in the arena once again to face another demon. This is the finals.

Normal P.O.V.

The humans put her in the arena. Nicole got her adrenalin pumping. Her fangs and claws grew a little longer. A tiger demon was trying to fight its way out of the net. Then they thru it in the arena. It got up and growled. Nicole glared and the fight begun.

Her master Jak talked to her throw the cage. "Alright Nicole don't waist your energy, let him." Jak said. The demon jumped up Nicole just looked at it when he came down Nicole just turned to the side and the demon missed. She drops to the ground and kicks him in the face sending him flying to the other side of the cage.

'He's crazy…' The cat scrambled to get up. 'He has no control…' He charged at her full blast she ran at him too and jumped up and keened him in the face. 'Sesshomaru would remember that…' He stood up and did a round house kick she stepped in closer to him and grabbed his thigh and thru him in to one of the humans spires stabbing him in his stomach. He got up and scratched her in the face then as he was leaning over she kneed him in the stomach. 'Let me put you out of your misery.' Nicole looked at him and put her hand in front of her she did a motion with her hands and his heart ripped out of his chest and flue fight in her palm. Then everyone oooooed. Nicole crushed the heart in her hand and sighted. 'I wonder if Sesshomaru is still alive…'

"Yes! Fantastic Nicole! Perfect!" Jak said and took her back out of the arena and back home. "That was awesome! We got good money!" Nicole smiled.

In jail

A scruffy boy about Nicole's age was in a jail cell. "Hey you have something on your nose." Supido said to the guard walking by with a broken nose.

"Oh just give me a reason." The man said and held up his metal stick.

"I thought I just did, what do I have to do talk about your mama?" Supido said sarcastically. The guard put his stick throw the bars to hit him but Supido moved back and grabbed the stick and pulled, smashing the man's head into the bars knocking him out. "Bingo!" Supido said and reached for the keys. "I've waited 3 weeks for this! Now I have an idea where they might be. The arena." Supido said to himself and he ran to the arena place. When he got there people were cleaning up the mess. 'I sense something… A powerful attack….' Supido thought. 'I think… it was Nicole?' Supido sniffed around and went back outside and sniffed around a little more. He then jumped away to look for Nicole.

With Nicole

She sat in her shed thinking about Supido and Sesshomaru. "I wonder if their still alive…" She said to herself. Then all of the sudden someone opened her door and it was… Supido. "Supido?! Is that you?" Nicole stood up and hugged him. "It's been soo long! Where were you?" Nicole asked pulling away.

"I tried to find you and Sesshomaru but a guy couth me snooping around and thru me in jail, I finally escaped!" Supido said in one breath.

"Uh…" Nicole looked a little confused. "So, you were stuck there for 3 weeks and they finally decided to let you out?"

"No!!! I was stuck for 3 week, but I tried to escape and I finally cough him off guard!" Supido said.

"Oh, well I've been doing well." Nicole said and invited him in.

"You've been winning fights and helping this family?" Supido said razing an eye brow and finally noticing that she was in demon form.

"Ya." Nicole said and sat down on her bed.

"How long?" Supido asked looking very serious.

"How long what?"

"How long have you been wearing that demon?" Supido said looking at her up and down. She had claws, fangs; ears, tail, and her eyes were silver and gold.

"Don't worry; I haven't killed any one for fun or any thing like that."

"I do worry Nicole; do you know how I knew which way to run the day we split up?" Nicole shook her head. "I was here before. I was running away from them and I ran into you and Sesshomaru. They made me fight to the death in the tournament. Me and my brother were captured and I faced him in the end. By the time you reach the end your brain washed. You just think about surviving and you end up killing each other. I'm guessing that Sesshomaru is in this fight too." Supido finished and sat in a chair.

"Yes he is. The last I saw of him was in a cell 3 weeks ago. He was being sold and then took away." Nicole finished.

"I hope you both don't lose your selves." With that Supido stood up and walked out side.

"Supido!" Nicole called after him. He turned around. "What happened to you and your brother?"

Supido stood there for what seemed like an hour. It started to rain then it rained hard. "We killed each other. I won. He was my younger brother, he was in control and I wasn't, I lost myself and he didn't. I have to live with pain every day thinking how the humans won over both of us and that I killed him with my own hands…" Supido finished and turned and walked away.

"Supido…" Nicole whispered. He turned around again.

"His name was Ryuchi…" Supido said. "I wish you the best." He then leafed. Nicole went back inside wondering what would happen when she had to face Sesshomaru.

Morning

I have a secret,
a beast that lives inside.
A monster that I fear,
a longing I despise.

Nicole woke up and got ready to fight. She eat all her food. "What's the matter Nicole?" Jak asked. Nicole just shook her head as in nothing. "Hey don't worry so much. Just remember not to waist your energy." He said and smiled at her.

The arena

It is a secret;
Watch who you go and tell.
This secret isn't safe;
People like me go to Hell.

"Come on Nicole take him down!" Jak yelled to Nicole thru the bars. The other demon hit her up agents the bars and a human stabbed her. She screamed in pain and throw up blood. She then grabbed his head and ripped it off.

It's not a thing I've done,
not some crime, I have committed.
No it's a deadly crime,
Just to be me, they've insisted.

Ding!! Ding!!

"The winner is Nicole!" The announcer yelled then he came over to Nicole and Jak. "The next fight will be at night. The moon will be full." The man looked at Jak, he nodded.

Inside, it burns me:
Lust and hate, pain.
Outside, it must not show,
Accept, the full moon...

"Well lets get you bandage up Nicole. Come on" Jak helped her up. They went back home and came back later. Nicole was breathing a little too hard for Jak's liking. "Nicole are you okay?" She nodded. Jak just nodded back and she went in the cage. Long red strips of hair started to appear at the tips of her black ears and tail.

"This is the champions… Nicole! And… Sesshomaru! They shall face each other in a duel to the death!!!

Nicole's mind sprang to life.

"Who ever is left standing is the winner!" The announcer yelled.

Nicole's heart was beating rapidly as Sesshomaru stepped into the cage. Sesshomaru walked in and looked at Nicole surprised.

"Alright… Fight!" Everyone yelled. Nicole out of the corner of her eye saw Supido nod at her and then mouth 'fight' with a worried expression.

"Nicole…We have to fight… Or the humans will kill us." Sesshomaru said in a low sad tone. He looked like crap.

"So. It's better than having to kill you." Nicole said.

"You're in your demon form still…" Sesshomaru said sadly.

"Ya. But I didn't kill any one for fun or any thing." Nicole said.

"Come on fight already!" Some one yelled.

"Whats going on?" Some one else yelled.

"Come on Nicole we have to fight."

"No Sesshomaru we can escape together and get out of here." Nicole said.

"No I've tried, and I'm done." Sesshomaru ran at Nicole. She didn't move "Sesshomaru" she whispered. He rammed her so hared that she went flying and smacked her head on the bars. Blood squirted out of her head. She got up.

"Come on fight me!!!" Sesshomaru yelled.

"I rather die a slow painful death than fight you." Nicole said.

"Nicole… Forgive me. But I have to do this…" Sesshomaru sounded as if he were going to cry his head was down.

"Sesshomaru, something happened to you. You don't really have to kill me. You're using this as an excuse." Nicole said holding her head.

Talk to me softly
There's something in your eyes
Don't hang your head in sorrow
And please don't cry
I know how you feel inside I've
I've been there before
Somethin's changin' inside you
And don't you know

'I can't tell her…' Sesshomaru thought. 'No I can't kill her either.' He then punched her across the face and she turned demon again.

Don't you cry tonight
I still love you baby
Don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
There's a heaven above you baby
And don't you cry tonight

She then got up and attacked him. She jumped on top of him his neck in her jaws. Felling his wind pipe, him breathing hared. 'Kill him.' Her mind screamed. 'Kill him!!' She closed her eyes and through a blood red haze she heard Sesshomaru's voice. 'Your demon side isn't a cold blooded killer, because you, Nicole isn't a cold blooded killer.'

Give me a whisper
And give me a sigh
Give me a kiss before you
tell me goodbye
Don't you take it so hard now
And please don't take it so bad
I'll still be thinkin' of you
And the times we had...baby

She throw him up agents the bars. He then got up and looked right into her eyes. 'Did she just spare me? In demon form?' He thought. He ran forward and held her up agents the bars.

And don't you cry tonight
don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
There's a heaven above you baby
And don't you cry tonight

"Nicole stop…" He held her still with his chest. 'She deserves to know why.' He thought. "Nicole you're the ruler's daughter…" Sesshomaru whispered. "Your right I did use this as an excuse to kill you. I couldn't kill you. I made this the reason instead of the really one. I was scared… But I'm sorry Nicole you have to die…" Tears streamed down Nicole's face.

And please remember that I never lied
And please remember
how I felt inside now honey
You gotta make it your own way
But you'll be alright now sugar
You'll feel better tomorrow
Come the morning light now baby

'No… I… I… don't want… to…' Nicole put her hands on Sesshomaru's chest. "I'm sorry but I don't want to die." Nicole whispered and stabbed him in his stomach. Sesshomaru stabbed her in the stomach too but with poison claws. They both dropped.

And don't you cry tonight
An don't you cry tonight
An don't you cry tonight
There's a heaven above you baby
And don't you cry
Don't you ever cry
Don't you cry tonight
Baby maybe someday
Don't you cry
Don't you ever cry
Don't you cry
Tonight

That's all. Pretty long I think. That song was by: GUNS&ROSES: Don't Cry
