So in retrospect, most of my chapters will be about 1000 words, giving you slow but steady content to this story. My plan is to go a good 100 chapters, giving you an entire 100,000 words of a story!
So now you know my goals for this story, and if I fail to deliver an entire 2,000 words a week call me out on it, that means this story will take an entire year to finish!
So, here we are at Chapter 4, in my first battle scene in ages, and I am good at those. So here we go.
Chapter 4: Fire.
Litera's attack halted Judor's flame the same way it stopped the Tetsusaiga. Inuyasha stared at her, Litera screamed back at him, "I can't help you in this fight without him getting in the way. If the enemies seem to be too powerful, defend up until I can turn the tables."
Inuyasha growled and pulled his Tetsusaiga out in full force, this many demons would not go down this easily. Pulling Kagome behind him, Inuyasha screamed out "Wind Scar!"
The searing, devastating attack flowed into the air, killing demons by the thousands.
but there might as well be millions.
Kagome stood up behind him and shot several arrows killing several demons. She panicked and pointed to her continually decreasing quiver. when Inuyasha glanced over, it was full. That confused him for a second, until one demon got too close and Inuyasha had to punch it out of the way, cursing himself for taking a hit that could have been avoided.
Kagome shot several nearby, and she screamed, "I am out of arrows!" Again, Inuyasha looked and saw her quiver was full. He yelled, "Check again!" When Kagome looked back, her surprise was complete, leaving her wide open, luckily..."Blades of Blood!"
The blades hit every vital point perfectly, even knocking out several more nearby, and to follow up he threw out another Wind Scar, but this time, it sizzled out.
"WHAT!" Inuyasha screamed, to which Litera cried, "Gimme a second, he surprised me!"
Inuyasha and Kagome shared a look. What the heck was she capable of? All of a sudden, They saw an orange light come from Litera and arranged towards Judor. Right before it hit, Litera screamed, "Try again!"
Not to waste the moment, he threw it out, "WIND SCAR"
This time the destructive wave was not stopped. Actually it was wider, lasted longer, and literally destroyed the mountain the demon's were coming from. This gave Inuyasha a few minutes of reprieve from battle. Kagome continued to shoot arrow after arrow, but suddenly when she grabbed for an arrow, her full quiver was now empty.
"What?"
"Is that the only word you can use? Judor is good, has too many surprises today. I have the advantage for now." Litera was in an aura of power while she said this. Then she pulled her blackened Blade in front of her.
"You hold the advantage? You keep leaving one of your companions open while covering the other!"
Which I am doing on purpose Litera thought, but held it close and suddenly disappeared, taking an attacking strike at Judor, catching him completely off guard and knicking him good on the shoulder, leaving a gash that weakened Judor's left arm.
In response, he slapped her on the cheek. "Always wanted to do that," he said with a grin. Litera, rather than become angry, attacked with a mercy statement, kicking him between the legs. While he whimpered, she whispered, "The feeling is mutual."
With that, Judor countered with a strike, but Litera disappeared back to her aura of power, and Kagome's arrows were refilled, right as the demons came back into range with all their deadly numbers.
Inuyasha, in his arrogance, "Just die all of you," swinging his Tetsusaiga, throwing the entire aura of the Wind Scar.
this time, the demons didn't just sit and take it. This time, another blast melded with Inuyasha's attack, putting both blasts into a standstill. Inuyasha's lost out, hitting him squarely.
However, this time, Inuyasha got up barely hurt. Kagome stared and then noticed his kimono wasn't damaged, realized the cloth of the fire rat had saved him again.
Looking up to see who had thrown that separate blast, a familiar face shown, and even though Inuyasha growled, he realized that the blast that had hit him and also been a Wind Scar.
Sesshomaru had his normally uncaring expression when he regarded his half-brother.
