Chapter 11

The battle had began, so far Sota and the others had fought against Kyashi while Emeri stood aside and watched. She could feel her power growing and could feel Sota against to her power. However it still wasn't time for her to jump in. 'If I jump in now, than I won't be able to do what I'm supposed to do…I don't care how badly I mess up with the time loop but I can't let anything ever happen to my family. I will always protect them.' Emeri thought as she continued to watch.

'Glad to see that you finally realized why we wanted you to wait.' Her inner dragon spoke.

'Yeah well…how's Sota…I could tell that you two were guiding him than.' Emeri hissed.

'He learns fast…I just wonder if he's going to be able to adjust to things.' Her inner inu demon added.

'Adjust to what?' Emeri asked.

But before Emeri could get an answer, she watched as Sango and Miroku were sent flying across the battle find. Without much effort, Emeri easily stopped them and gently placed them on the floor. After making sure that she didn't need to heal them, Emeri turned back to find that Sota was the only one fighting Kyashi at the moment. Kagome was on the floor taking in a deep breath as if trying to breath. 'You have to wait.'

"No…Kyashi!" Emeri roared as she began to let out her true power.

All eyes turned to see Emeri glowing in a bright blue color. Her eyes were no longer the deep blue they were a white color that glimmered with some blue. As the air around her began to crak, Emeri's weapons were lifted up into the air as water began to surround her. As this happened, Sota appeared at her side within the blink of an eye. Once he was at her side, Emeri smiled as he took her hand in his. Kyashi let out an enraged growl before he said, "Come to me and I will let them all live. Should you choose to stay with that brat I shall kill him and take you with me by force?"

"Kill me." Sota began.

"And you'll kill me as well. Now, stop this foolishness or die." Emeri finished.

"Don't bother, he will never give up." Inuyasha growled as he held on to Tetsusiga.

"Indeed, this fool knows not when to stop." Sesshomaru added as he took his place in front of the pack. "Now leave my lands or die."

"Not without Jezebeth!" Kyashi roared.



Emeri looked into her mates eyes knowing that he did not like what she had to do. 'I must do this. We can't let him live and the spell my parents taught me is the only one that will help his soul heal.'

'Just because you have to do it doesn't mean that I'll like it. Just hurry up will I hold them back.' Sota answered as quickly appeared in Sesshomaru's way.

'Thank you.' Emeri stated as she made her move and appeared in front of Kyashi with a soft yet sad smile on her face.

Emeri!" Sango and Kagome yelled as they tried to reach her only to be held in place. All eyes turned to Sota when they heard Sesshomaru say, "Get out of my way and get your mate. Or will you allow her to leave you and use you?"

Without another word, Sota easily threw Sesshomaru and slammed him against the tree that stood next to Inuyasha and Kagome. After taking a calming breath he turned to face his sister and locked eyes with her. 'Please sis…you have to try to understand…she knows what she is doing.' Sota thought as he tried to use the sibling bond that they had.

Kyashi looked down at Emeri as his aura slowly began to calm down. She was using hers to calm him and to get him to relax. Once he was relaxed enough, Emeri pulled her aura back and allowed Sota's to surround her again. Before Kyashi could do anything Emeri locked eyes with him and asked, "Why me?"

"Jezebeth…you were the one that got me to open my heart. To realize that I two had to find a mate just as my friends had done so. Jezebeth…place…be my mate." Kyashi whispered as he slowly wrapped his arms around Emeri.

"Kyashi…my name is Emeri. I am Jezebeth's reincarnation however I have found my mate. Please let this go…find peace." Emeri whispered as she tried to get him to see the truth. 'I don't want hurt him…I don't want to have to hurt either one of them.'

"No…you are Jezebeth. They have you under a spell and I will kill them all for it!" Kyashi roared as he began to pull away.

"Emeri get out of the way!" Miroku yelled.

"Emeri!" Kagome yelled as she tried to ignore her brother's stare. She just couldn't watch any of her friends get hurt; not when she now had the power to prevent it.

Before Kyashi could make his move, Emeri slammed her lips on to him. He was the dragon of fire while she was the dragon of ice. If he would have seen things as they were he would have realized that one kiss from her and he would die. Every one watched in horror as Emeri allowed her power to consum her. As Kyashi tried to pull away, Emeri froze each and every single part of 

his body before she pulled away. Never wanting to see him again, Emeri pushed his body and allowed it to shatter into as many pieces as it could.

As soon as she had done so, Emeri went back to looking as she did as she fell forward. Before anyone could reach her, Sota had Emeri in her arms as he began to sniff her to make sure that she was ok. Once he was sure that she would be alright he looked up to his sister and her friends and said, "Now you know why she wanted all of you behind me. Anyone that wasn't would have been frozen as well."

"It would seem that she did not want any of us getting hurt again." Sesshomaru stated.

"Uh…she was always the one to make sure that every, but herself was safe." Shippo was heard as he landed on his father's shoulder.

"Yeah, well I'm going to go and lay her down. We have to get going now." Sota said as he turned around to leave.

"Sota…let Sesshomaru and Kagura take her…we need to talk to you." Inuyasha ordered as he put Tetsusiga away.

"I'll meet up with you guys after I make sure she's going to stay asleep." Sota answered as he kept walking.

"Sota…this really can't wait." Kagome added.

"Don't worry; we'll make sure she stays in bed." Miroku said as he and Sango walked over to help get Emeri out of his arms.

"Fine, but it better not take long." Sota said as he walked over to his sister and her mate to follow them.

"We'll be back." Kagome called over her shoulder as she took off alongside her brother and her mate.

As soon as they landed Sota began to growl. He knew that Emeri was Emeri and that she had nothing to do with her past. However, he still didn't understand why they wanted to talk here. Why his sister wanted him to see the grave of his mate. When neither one of them said anything, Sota bared his fangs and asked, "What the hell did you bring me to her grave! She's dead and Emeri is who needs me now!"

"Sota…the power you have is Jezebeth's. You have to return it to her sprit." Kagome said.

"No…we don't…Emeri unlocked it for a reason. She used magic to unlock her past selves power. You should know that since you already unlocked Kikiyo's power and your own." Sota growled.



"I don't give a fuck if she's your sister…don't growl at my mate pup." Inuyasha growled as he pulled Kagome behind him.

"I'm not a pup! I have a mate so fuck off!" Sota roared as the stone that had been placed for Jezebeth's grave was lifted off the floor.

"Sota…I'm sorry but do you really think it's a good idea. You two need to bind your powers once you get home." Kagome said as she got out of Inuyasha hold to face her brother. "I know you love her and I know this was heard for you but that power…no longer exist in our time."

"Yes it does…it doesn't belong to the dragons but it still belongs in the future." Sota said as he began to calm down.

"No, do you really think that people will hold back. If they are tainted then they will use it against demons and other humans. Humans will always be greedy." Inuyasha replied in a much calmer voice.

"I know." Sota answered.

"Then why won't you listen?" Kagome asked.

"Because we already made plans for our powers. The only reason that we haven't done it is because Emeri is still too weak." Sota answered.

"What are you planning?" Kagome asked.

"We want to make sure that Sango and Miroku are the guardians of this gift." Sota answered as he locked eyes with his sister.

Well that's it…the fic. if almost over. I hope you all have enjoyed it…those of you that have read it so far. I know its not one of my best works but this is why I don't write sequels. Anyway take care.
