I'm sooo sorry for taking so long to update but some things came up with my family and school plus I got sick and still is but its getting better. I never meant to take this long and I wanted to apologize because I know it sucks to wait a long period of time for a story to be updated.
Well here it is, enjoy!
Chapter 9: The Kidnap Part I
Miroku stirred in his sleep; beads of sweat running down his face. The nurse draped a wet cloth on his forehead. His hand shot up and grasped the nurse's hand, and she jumped startled. He groaned as he tried to sit up but the nurse pushed him back down.
"Please monk don't try to move." she said as she laid him back down and begun working on the wound at the lower part of his right arm.
He watched the nurse as she tended to his right arm. "What happened? The last thing I remember was prince Sesshomaru and I were fighting and then everything became black." he questioned, closing his eyes, trying to think what happened after.
"I'm sorry I don't know but when prince Inuyasha brought you in he said to hurry up and heal you before sun completely disappears. I believe they are battling against the mikos and he needs your help but I could be wrong. Although I'm pretty sure the battle has long since been done." she said as she tied the knot. Miroku flinched as she pulled on the ends to make sure the wrappings wouldn't come undone. The nurse noticed this and bowed ashamed. "I'm sorry for causing you so much pain."
He smiled and sat up resting his left hand on the nurse's back. "There is no need to apologize. Someone as beautiful as you shouldn't need to be sorry to tend to my needs." he said seductively as his hand inched closer to her butt.
The nurse lightly laughed and caught his hand before it reached her behind. "Prince Inuyasha and the female monk were right, you are a pervert and I've heard all the demonesses talk about you and your curse." she slapped his right arm twice smiling when he yelped in pain.
"There that should do it." she dropped his hand and walked out of the room.
Miroku sighed and sat up looking at his right hand. "Just like every other beautiful female..." he said to no one in particular but the sparkle in his eyes he didn't mind he was once again rejected. He looked out the window and saw the sky pitch black, no stars but the moon to lighten up the sky. 'I wonder if the girls made it back safely.' His thoughts traveled to the demon slayer. 'Sango…are you well?' He laid back down only to sit back up when the door burst open.
"Miroku you're okay!" Koharu jumped on top of him, embracing him in a death hug.
Miroku tried breaking free as his vision started to blur from the lack of air he was receiving. "Koharu…I can't…breathe…" he choked out.
Koharu pulled away blushing. "I'm so sorry Miroku I didn't mean to. It's just when I found out what happened to you I got really scared and I rushed over here but they wouldn't let me in. I waited and waited and I thought you were going to die and…" she babbled but stopped hearing Miroku laugh. "What are you laughing about?" she demanded putting her hands on her hips.
"I wasn't going to die Koharu. My arm is just cut and that's all." he lifted his right arm to prove his point that his arm was the only external wound on his body. He had many bruises over his upper body too but no other cuts.
"Oh…so can you still fight?" she questioned poking his arm which made him flinch in pain.
"Sorry." she apologized as her face became tinted pink.
He looked a little annoyed but put a smile on his face. "I can't use my wind tunnel but I can still fight." he said.
"Good because Lord Inutaisho has ordered us to help prince Inuyasha." she smiled seeing the frustrated look he gave her.
"What did he do this time?" he asked in a boring tone but inside he was worried something bad happened and the outcome wouldn't be a happy one.
"He went off into the forest and is probably fighting as we speak." she leaned against the wall knowing that they wouldn't be leaving anytime soon.
"The mikos?" he raised his eyebrow in suspicion.
"No but the Lord thinks that Naraku has finally come out of the shadows. If Inuaysha is fighting him he'll need help." she whispered looking at his expression.
"Naraku…" he said darkly. Both his hands clenched into tight fists.
Naraku is a half demon that rebelled against Lord Inutaisho many years ago. He is known for his shape shifting abilities, and many demons have been killed or tricked by him and no one knows better than Miroku.
When he was younger, his father, one day came home with a beautiful woman. His father announced that they were going to get married but on the day of the wedding he found his father dead and his supposed future mother was covered in his father's blood laughing while he cried in pain. He tried to fight her but she dodged him. She then cursed him with the wind tunnel by cutting a hole in the palm of his right hand. Before she left she revealed her true self as the half demon Naraku and told him as long as he is alive the wind tunnel will exist sucking him and his descendants up into the void. Miroku never forgot the demon and swore to hunt him down and kill him. His father was deceived and murdered by the despicable demon.
"Come on Miroku lets hurry up and go. If it's truly Naraku we don't have time to waste." she said before leaving the room.
Miroku got off the bed and left the room going in the opposite direction Koharu had went, walking through a few corridors. Upon reaching two huge maple doors he opened them and walked in. The room had tall rows of bookshelves full with books. In the center, tables were scattered, a few tables had candles to better read in the dark.
"Miroku what a you doing here?" a small voice asked from one of the tables with books stacked up blocking the person from view.
"Ah Shippo I came to ask of your assistance." he said walking over to the table and saw a fox demon kit.
The boy got out of the table and jumped onto Miroku's shoulder. His orange hair was put up in a small ponytail. The outfit was a teal color and wore a fur vest which tickled Miroku's neck. Behind him his puffball tail wildly swished hitting Miroku in the back of the head.
Miroku grumbled and grabbed Shippo by the tail. "Shippo we may need to use your fox magic in the battle that Inuyasha is currently fighting in and I have been ordered to assist him." he said staring hard at Shippo who was getting nervous under his firm stare.
"Sure…I-I'll help you." he tried speaking normally but it came out squeaky.
Miroku smiled and put Shippo back on the ground. "Thank you for your cooperation."
"Yeah lets go." Shippo walked out of the library in defeat with a happy Miroku trailing behind.
'I knew he would say yes.' Miroku smiled even more. "Shippo before we leave I need to talk to someone. I have a feeling that we might need her help."
Shippo glanced back at him confused but didn't say a thing. 'Her? Who is he talking about? I know it can't be Koharu. She isn't a good fighter and is bad at healing. It must be some other girl. I guess I'll find out who she is' he thought but shrugged it off and followed Miroku who took the lead.
Kagome opened her eyes and felt a sharp pain on her backside. She looked to her side and saw Kikyo next to her, pools of blood surrounded her body.
"Kikyo!" she yelled as she tried to get up. Her body felt so heavy but she kept walking and dropped hard onto her knees. "Kikyo…please wake up…" she begged but Kikyo didn't move at all.
"Pathetic that woman took the most blows of my attack to save you but what a waste, you're going to die in a few seconds." the demon Kagura laughed holding her fan above her head. "Too bad you weren't much of a challenge. Dance of blades." Blades shot out at Kagome.
Kagome looked up as her eyes changed to azure. Within seconds a barrier protected her and Kikyo from the attack. She stood up bringing both hands in front of her as they glowed azure as well. "Dance of blades!" she yelled as the same blades flew out of the barrier and at Kagura but unlike the ones Kagura sent they were faster which gave her a hard time of dodging them.
Blood fell from all over her body. She growled at Kagome. "You will pay for that. Dance of blades!" she called once again.
Like last time Kagome's barrier blocked the attack as she sent them back at Kagura.
"Do you think I would fall for the same thing again." Kagura said as she swung her fan creating a strong gust of wind throwing the blades of course. Before she could send another attack she shrieked in pain as blood fell from her mouth.
Damn you." she cursed seeing Kagome behind her. The back of her kimono was burnt off as well as the skin of her back from Kagome's purification attack
"I knew you'd f all into my trap." Kagome said, eyes and hands enveloped in her spiritual energy. "Now tell me why you attacked us and I may spare your life." she said harshly, hands extended to purify Kagura if she tried anything.
Kagura growled at her as she closed her fan. 'Hmm maybe if I stall she'll be drained from the amount of blood she has lost.' she thought looking down at the river a blood coming out of Kagome.
"You've got me so I have no other choice but to tell you everything." she huffed as she crossed her arms, the fan stuck out slowly moving in a circle. 'This girl will die by my hands.' she smirked before she put on a disappointed look.
"As you already now I'm Kagura controller of the wind and only the wind…"
"I know that so hurry up and tell me why you attacked us." Kagome begun to loose her patience, and she wanted to hurry up and leave so she could treat Kikyo's wounds. She lightly shook her head trying shake off the dizziness she was feeling.
Kagura noticed this and smiled a little. 'Seems I'll be able to finish this quicker then I thought.'
"Well…" Kagome asked impatiently.
"My reasons for attacking you was to bring out the youngest demon prince. My master had orders for you and your sister's capture but I thought why should I have to kidnap you guys when I could simply kill you. I mean either way the prince will surely be angered whether you are dead or alive…"
Kagome felt lightheaded as she swayed a bit but caught herself. Her legs felt numb and tried to focus on what Kagura was telling her. Blinking her eyes she tried to clear the blur vision from effecting her encase she had to fight.
Kagura smiled as she quickly turned around hitting Kagome in the back of her legs with her fan. Kagome fell back onto the ground. Kagura laughed and opened her fan.
"Foolish girl you w ere too preoccupied that you didn't notice the flow of blood coursing down your back." she said mockingly raising her fan above her head.
Kagome's face twisted between hatred and pain. When she fell, her back rubbed against the rock floor inflicting more damage to her. She got to her knees before a gust of wind pushed her backwards. She cried in pain as her backside hit a wall and fell to the ground. 'What am I going to do? I'm loosing large amounts of blood and if I don't finish this battle soon Kikyo and I are goners…' her thoughts were interrupted by Kagura.
"Dance of Blades!"
Kagome rolled to the side dodging the full attack. She groaned in pain as her back really started hurting. The blood flowed out of her back like a waterfall. She looked to her left and saw Sango lying not to far from her. Even though her vision was a bit blurred she could see Sango move and smiled. 'She's okay…' were her thoughts before everything started to turn black. 'I'm sorry for letting you down. I couldn't protect you guys…' Everything then turned black.
Kagura brought her fan above her ready to send the final blow to kill.
"Wait Kagura." a male voice said behind her.
She growled and turned around to see a boy around the age of sixteen standing behind her. His short indigo hair blocked most of his face and his ruby eye that wasn't covered stared at her with no emotion.
"What is it Kane?" she asked annoyed as the boy went over to Kagome.
"Master Naraku wants you to bring both girls back alive." he told her, caressing Kagome's cheek.
"What about the other girl?" she questioned pointing her fan at the demon slayer.
"He doesn't care for the demon slayer. He said we could either let her go or kill her." he got up and faced Kagura who had a bored look on her face. "But I recommend that she stays alive that way Inuyasha has a clue to who took his lover." he said as he picked up Kagome bridal style.
"Fine let's get going I don't want to stay here any longer." she ordered turning around grabbing a small feather and throwing it the air. Jumping upon it Kane handed Kagura both girls.
"Kane I leave you to take care of the slayer. Do you whatever you want." she said flying off.
"Kikyo! Wind scar!" someone yelled as a wave of energy emerged from the trees heading straight for Kagura.
Kagura barely had time to dodge it and the swift movement resulted in one of the girls falling off. 'Damn.' she thought but kept heading south not daring to turn around.
Inuyasha jumped into the air and grabbed the falling girl and landed. "Kikyo! Kikyo!" he called her name but she didn't answer. He saw the blood trailing down her back and became worried.
"Ah I see I get the honor of meeting the youngest son of the great dog demon lord." a male voice spoke as Inuyasha turned around sword still in hand.
"Who the hell are you? Are you the one that hurt Kikyo?" he yelled glaring at the boy. He laid Kikyo on the ground facing the guy.
"I am called Kane and don't be fooled by my looks for many people have died by my hands believing that I wasn't much of a match for them." he grinned as the half demon growled loosing his patience. "If you want to get revenge then I'm not the one you should be fighting but I won't let you leave so easily." he said not bothering to get into a fighting stance which ticked Inuyasha off.
"If it's a fight you want you got it, wind scar!" As he brought his sword down the ground shook around him as ground pillars shot up. As the attack hit the pillars an explosion erupted. When the smoke cleared the pillars were the same as if they never got hit. "Damn you…" Inuyasha swore as he used his sword to cut the pillars but he was wasting his time.
"Like I said before I won't be easy to fight let alone be defeated." Kane said from above one of the pillars.
Inuyasha gazed up at him and down at Kikyo. Blood still flowed freely from her back. 'I have to defeat this guy soon or Kikyo won't make it.' He thought as he jumped into the air.
"Prepare to die Inuyasha!"
This was a long chapter wasn't it. This chapter probably wasn't good but I think it explains a few things. I forgot to mention that before Inuyasha arrived the girls and Kagura were outside fighting because Kagura pushed them out with her wind so sorry if you got confused.
I'm sorry if you're disappointed but I'm still new to this so please understand that I'm trying my best to make this story good and sometimes it might not be if I'm stressed out or something like that. I'm getting a lot of help from my friends who write a lot but I sometimes forget what they told me since my school pours out all these projects, exams, essays, major homework, and group assignments for me to do. I'm not trying to complain and make it seem like I'm the only with this problem but I have never concentrated on school as much as I'm doing now so I'm sort of getting used to doing all those things. I'm sorry for rambling but I thought I should let you know what I'm going through at the moment and hope you understand
Thanks for reading and I want to know if this chapter was good enough or not so please review and tell me if it was.
Thanks a lot to all my reviewers and readers.
