Chapter 4: Running Demons

Kagome and the gang were standing in front of Sesshoumaru, after a long trip they had finally arrived at his marvelous pristine castle, sculpted in pure white marble, cherry blossoms planted parallel to one another, next to a sand like road that lead to the castle's entrance. A big brown door stood in front of them with a dog craved in it, and as they had the door opened by one of the servants they were taken away by the view of the Lord's home, a red carpet stood under their noses, leading way to the stair in front of them who broke off into two opposite ones, leading to different sides of the castle, and the red carpet only kept it's way to the right side. The entrance was covered in large arched windows, leaving the room bathed with the sun's light.

''Half-breed.'' Sesshoumaru coldly stated from across the room, standing on the red carpet at the end of the stairs. ''You and your pack have taken more than enough time to reach this Sesshoumaru's home.''

''Yeah, well, what do you want from us? I left my pup back at the village so this better be fast!''

Sesshoumaru looked at Kagome and the rest of the group, instructing them to follow him, he moved outside of the castle and onto the cherry blossom area, moving away from the sand road, he guided them through his giant garden, finally stopping in front of an entrance to a cave.

With Lilith

Would you do anything to save your loved ones? The manly voice she had heard back at the hospital room spoke ponce again.

''Of course! I'd never let any of my friends die while I'm alive!''

What would you do if they turned on you, to claim your life.

''I'm sure they'd have their reasons! I'd let them claim it! I must have done something to hurt them, so I wouldn't protect myself!''

A small human form of light appeared in front of her a man with golden eyes and a small purple stripe on each cheek and long silver hair tied at the top of his head, he wore a white kimono and hakama with a breastplate, armored boots, and a long flowing sash, a spiked pauldron on each shoulder, parted pelt that extends from both shoulders parting at his lower back, with quite a fluffy appearance, he was close within her reach, and without even thinking she reached forward, petting the white fluff, her body felt so light, she could move freely in the air, her legs weren't restricting her of movement.

Humans are always curious creatures, they don't care about the dangers of situation until they satisfy their hunger for knowledge. He grabbed her hand and pulled it beck in front of his face, never releasing it from it's hold.

''H-hey! Let go of my hand!'' She tried to get free of his grip but he was far too strong.

Do not resist me. He said, taking a firm hold of her waist and holding her against his body. Her eyes immediately opened, almost popping out of her head as a look of utter surprise and horror adorned her feature, and then, laughter could be heard, the man before her, was having a fit of uncontrollable laughter.

Oh my god! You should have seen your face! You looked like a big eyed fish about to be eaten!

''H-hey! Not funny! What do you want from me?! AND WHAT WAS THAT FOR?!'' Lilith madly shouted at him, punching his chest plate.

That was for being too curious and getting on my personal space as long as what I want from you...you'll find in it's due time. Now tell me, do you have someone to protect?

''Someone? To protect? N-no... I don't really have friends, or family you know, Kagome's the only friend I've ever had but I haven't seen her in so long. I wonder if she still remembers me...'' She looked sadly at her feet, yet his head quickly found her chin, and lifted her eye onto his sight.

There's something you want to protect, at all cost, it was the same reason that got you in this state. He said glancing at the wound in her forehead.

And all of a sudden, as if by magic, images of the puppy she had attempted to save flashed through her mind, and all those birds she had taken care of when fallen from the nest. And as clear as the sun light, she knew the one thing she had to protect. ''Animals...and..my legs!'' This time, he didn't respond, he but gently smiled as his body faded back into the darkness. Go, and save the world, get your wings back, and be free!

She felt her body weaken until she closed her eyes and drifted back off into sleep.

With Sesshoumaru and the guys

''Inuyasha, as father ever told you about the whereabouts of the running demons?''

''Running what? No. What the hell is a running demon.'' Inuyasha asked half mad and half curious.

''Monk, Demon Slayer do you know of them?''

Miroku quickly replied. ''Legend tells that the running demons existed little less than 700-800 years ago, they were demons of pure attributes, earth, water, wind and fire, also known to be some of the strongest in the demon world. They obtained the nickname running because they were able to run for long distances and time, at great speed, without rest or food for years. That was I learned from my training.''

''I learned the same as Miroku but, my father told me they were capable of rejecting their human form from within their nature, and that by doing that, they became unbeatable, but I always wondered, if they were so unbeatable, why don't they exist anymore.''

''Correction, one remains, it was long ago sealed in this cave by my father, Lord Inu no Taisho, the running demons are beatable, they're only weakness, is-'' He was interrupted as he smelled the bright vivid smell of his father in the entrance of the cave, and by instinct he leaps inside.

''Father!'' Inuyasha scram, as he too, smelt his father, and ran into the cave, the group quickly on his heels.

''Oh my god... What's this?!'' Kagome shouted as she saw a giant sphere of darkness.

Everyone stared at it, not knowing what to do, eventually the sphere's size began to shrink, until Kagome heard metal clashing onto the ground, and the darkness forming into a human form, slowly hovering till the body laid on the ground safely. Once the body of darkness had been laid on the cave's stone floor, the darkness began to dissipate from the body, pale skin and brown hair was the first thing they saw, and has the darkness fled further and further, Kagome recognized the typical medical robes of her time, having a button behind the person's neck and the rest being open for better medical use in case of urgency, what she didn't except was to see her friend laying of the ground with nearly dried stitches oh her forehead and pale skin that made her look like a ghost.

''Lilith!'' Kagome quickly ran to her friend's side, ignoring the wheel chair that laid in front of her and picked her friend's head onto her arms.
