Scroll Two: Demon vs Pirate, Naraku's plot unfolds!
The white-haired half-demon and his friends approached yet another town on their trek to retrieve the sacred jewel and destroy Naraku. The black-haired girl in a green skirt stretched her arms above her head. "Ah, after so long in the woods, it'll be nice not to have to sleep on the ground."
"Feh, I don't see your problem Kagome, sleeping on the ground ain't so bad." The half-demon looked at her with one eye open.
"Inuyasha, you're just uncivilized." The small fox demon stuck his tongue out at the dog-eared half-demon.
"I'll show you uncivilized you little runt!" Inuyasha rolled up his sleeves and reached for the small fox.
"AH! Kagome! Inuyasha's being mean to me!" The fox demon named Shippo screamed and ran over to Kagome's other shoulder.
"Inuyasha…." Kagome stared at the half-demon with a disdainful look in here eyes.
"Don't say it…" Inuyasha's eyes widened in terror.
"Sit!"
Inuyasha fell to the ground and let out a whimpering moan. "D-Damn you…"
"Serves you right." Shippo stuck his tongue out again.
"Kagome, Inuyasha, come look at this." A young monk in purple robes accompanied by a female demon slayer nodded up over the hill where the town was located.
As the group looked over the hill and down on the town, a look of horror crossed their faces. "Oh my God…" Kagome breathed with a shocked expression on her face. The village that they had been heading to was completely destroyed, bodies were strewn all over the place, buildings were in shambles and blood was everywhere.
"So that was the disgusting smell…" Inuyasha looked over the scene and sniffed the air. "Naraku did this, I can smell his miasma."
"But why would Naraku attack this specific village? As far as I know there isn't anything of importance here, just a rest stop for travelers." The demon slayer, Sango stated in an analytical tone.
"Who cares? All it means is that Naraku's in the area and we're that much closer to tracking him down once and for all." Inuyasha grinned and snapped his claws, making a crunching sound.
"First thing is first Inuyasha." The monk, Miroku, kneeled down and made a hand sign. "We have to take care of the victims."
"Feh, if this traveler thing doesn't work out, I swear we should become professional gravediggers, we're doing it anyway except nobody's paying us." Inuyasha scoffed.
-----------------------------
After a while working and burying the victims of Naraku's attack, Inuyasha sighed, whipping the sweat from his forehead and sink his shovel into the ground so it stood on it's own. "Why am I the one doing all the work? Where the hell did everybody go?" He looked annoyed at Kagome, who was the only person left there.
"Miroku and Sango went to go get some water and some wood for the grave markers, Shippo and Kilala went to go get some flowers for the graves." Kagome sighed after erecting another wooden cross in front of a freshly dug tomb.
"Ahh, that no good little runt, he's gonna get himself into trouble, I just know it." Inuyasha looked around again and went back to digging.
------------------------
The girl with fox ears woke up with a pounding headache. She stood up and looked around, the area she was in was a deep wooded forest, surrounded by trees with no exit in sight. "Ugh, where am I?" she moaned, holding her head. "Last thing I remember I was poking Axe, did he knock me out?" She looked around again and heard some voices, she quickly hid behind a tree, pulling out her scythes just in case.
"Do you think this'll be enough Kilala?" Shippo nodded to a small cat demon, his hands and her mouth full of flowers.
"Oh, it's just a little squirt." Dusty blinked and stepped out from behind the tree, revealing herself to the two.
"AH! Kilala, run! It's a demon!" Shippo dropped the flowers and began to run away, stumbling and falling in the process.
Dusty growled, picking the fox demon up by the tail and glaring at him. "What did you call me you little runt?"
"AH! Kilala help me! The demon's got me!" Shippo flailed, trying to get away.
"I am NOT a demon, damnit!" Dusty growled, squeezing Shippo's tail for emphasis. Earning a small yelp from the fox demon before the girl dropped him to the ground again.
Kilala reacted to this and transformed into her larger cat from, which looked like a Saber-toothed tiger. "If you're not a demon, then how do you explain those ears? And that tail? You look like someone from my tribe."
"Ehehehe…. Nice kitty…" Dusty backed up a bit, chuckling nervously. "Oh these? I ate the Kit-Kit Devil fruit so now I'm part fox." She eyed the two curiously.
"Devil… Fruit? Sounds tasty." Shippo commented and looked to Kilala. "Don't worry Kilala, this demon looks pretty weak, and I think she's crazy in the head, I think we can take her."
"For the last time I am not a…"
"Smashing Top!" Shippo pulled the string on a normal sized top that was headed for Dusty's head, growing larger in size, it went straight through the fox, spinning on the ground again as the girl disappeared. "Huh? Where'd she go?"
"That's a nice little illusion you've got there. What do you think of my Disappearing Act you little runt?" Dusty held a scythe to the small fox's neck as she glared at the pair. "I want some answers and I want them now..."
----------------------------------
The speedy swordsman walked around the forest, also holding his head. "Why did Axe knock ME out? Dusty-chan was the one poking him. And where the hell am I?" he sighed and began playing his flute, trying to navigate himself out of the forest by the echoing sounds.
"Hey you!" a man with a white Mohawk pointed to the punk, he was accompanied by a man with white and black hair, both wearing what appeared to be wolf's fur.
"Who me?" The swordsman pointed to himself.
"Yeah, you! There's no one else around here, stupid!" The man with black and white hair also pointed to the brown-haired man. "This is wolf demon territory! How dare you trespass!"
"Leave immediately and we might let you live!" the other shouted.
"Well how rude, I'm sorry I invade your turf, but I need to go that way to get out of the forest." The man pointed to the direction the two men were standing in.
"Go back the way you came or we'll really make you sorry!" the two men yelled.
DJ disappeared and reappeared behind the two. "Oh really now?"
The men in wolf's skin looked a bit shocked but attacked the man anyway. "Take this!" The white Mohawk man punched at him and the other aimed a kick. Both attacks went through the afterimage harmlessly.
"Is that the best you've got?" DJ appeared behind the men again with his back to theirs. In one motion he turned around and pulled out the katana on his back. "Dragon's Barrage!"
The two men fell over in the dirt, covered in bruises. "Damn, he's fast." The white and black haired man stood up and held his face.
"But not as fast as Koga…" The man with the Mohawk stood up and smirked, also clutching his bruises.
The two nodded and looked at each other, running off into the forest screaming. "KOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOGGGA!!!!"
"Well… that was odd…" DJ blinked and walked off, playing his flute again.
--------------------------------------
"Do you know what happened Captain? Or where we are?" The woman with fiery red hair asked the large black-haired muscular man who was inspecting the large stone Axe he carried.
"I don't know Chizzy, and how many times do I have to tell you, you can call me Axe, we're nakama after all. What I'm wondering is why my Axe is covered in blood. Did I kill something?"
"No idea Captain, I'm more concerned about where we are and where we're headed. Doesn't it seem odd to you that one minute we're all on the ship and the next we're here?" Chizuru asked.
"Not really, weird shit happens to us all the time." He shrugged.
"Well this just seems beyond weird." Chizuru sighed as they exited the forest. They came into a village that looked like a tornado had torn through it, everything looked completely destroyed.
"Uh… Chizzy? I think things just got ten times weirder." Axe blinked and looked to the only two moving people among the destruction. One was a white-haired man with dog ears and the other was a pretty looking dark haired woman in a green skirt.
"Who the hell are you?" The white-haired man took out his sword, which then grew to many times larger than it was in the sheathe. "You're the one who killed these villagers aren't ya? You're one of Naraku's minions, I can smell his miasma on you." He snarled.
"What the hell are you talking about? I just got here, who's Naraku?" Axe blinked and looked to Chizuru, who shrugged, just as confused as he was.
"Inuyasha! I sense the sacred jewel shards! He has one in his neck and one in his axe!" The girl shouted.
"Don't lie! Your axe is covered with the blood from these innocent people. And Naraku is the only one who could've given you those jewel shards! Where is Naraku hiding now?" The man called Inuyasha spat.
"I have no fricken idea what you're talking about!" Axe shouted at the man. "I don't even know what the heck you're talking about, I don't have any jewels on me. If you're looking for someone to mug, you picked the wrong person!" he wielded his giant stone axe and pointed it at Inuyasha. "I do feel stronger for some reason though…"
"If you won't tell me, I'll have to beat the answers out of you! Wind Scar!" Inuyasha shouted and slammed his large sword on the ground, yellow streaks of power emitting from it and heading straight towards Axe.
The black-haired man swung his axe hard at the Wind Scar and sent it flying off into another direction.
"He deflected the Wind Scar…" Kagome gasped.
"Stand back Kagome, it must be the power of that Shikon jewel shard of his.
Kill him… Kill Inuyasha. A chillingly evil voice sounded in Axe's head. "W-what?" Kill him… Kill Inuyasha!
A chillingly evil voice sounded in Axe's head. "W-what?""Inuyasha! The jewel shard turned black!" Kagome shouted.
"It's corrupting, so he is being controlled by Naraku…You're just like Bankotsu, are you another dead specter?"
Axe got a cold look in his eye. "Kill Inuyasha… Chizuru, stand back, I'll handle this!" Axe swung the giant stone Axe and released a wave of heat at Inuyasha and Kagome.
"Kagome!" Inuyasha grabbed the girl around the waist and jumped out of the way of the heat blast. "Damn, he's good, this could take a while…"
-----------------------------
Meanwhile, the blonde haired swordsman walked through a thick mist, swinging his swords around. "Ugh, what the hell is this shit?"
A young woman in priestess robes appeared out of the mist, followed by white serpent spirits. She looked at the blonde man and focused on his neck. "Who are you and why do you have a sacred jewel shard?" She asked calmly.
"They call me the demon, who the hell are you and what is a sacred jewel?" The Demon squinted at the priestess Kill Kikyo… A sinister voice rang out in the Demon's head.
"I am Kikyo…" the priestess responded, watching the jewel shard in the Demon's neck as it pulsated and turned black.
"Kill… Kikyo?" The swordsman questioned as he held his head and his eyes began to turn red. "Die… Lady Kikyo." He grinned evilly and wielded the Kitetsu.
---------------------------
Naraku: Kill my enemies… Take their Shikon jewel shards...
Inuyasha: Stand back Kagome! I'll handle this.
Kikyo: Peace is not in the path you travel, only destruction and turmoil.
Devon: I am a demon, nothing more…
Kagome: Next time: The demon among them! See ya soon!
Devon: Resign yourself to death priestess!
