Sesshomaru's Red Eyes

Chapter 4:

The Battle That Occurs

XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO

"You are fighting without much sense or strategy, Brother. How do you expect to beat me when you charge with such carelessness?" Sesshomaru mocked.

"I'd like to hear you say that after I slice your head in half!" InuYasha roared back in return.

'Oh great,' Kagome thought, 'He really is being careless!'

"InuYasha, slow down, don't fight so blindly!" Miroku yelled.

It was true, InuYasha was swinging his sword with powerful lunges, but Sesshomaru could easily overpower him at any moment. Sparks flew from Tokijin, sending InuYasha flying about 25 feet. Miroku saw his chance. He began to run at Sesshomaru, ready to throw a sutra and split Sesshomaru's skull open. Sesshomaru saw this, and with his demon speed, grabbed hold of Sango by the neck of her kimono, lifting her clearly in front of him so Miroku could see.

"Its your choice, Monk," he said dangerously. Miroku's eyes widened in fear.

"Let her go, Sesshomaru!" Kagome shouted. "She's completely innocent!"

"Innocent is she?" Sesshomaru began, "A youkai slayer?"

"Kagome, give it a rest, even I know I am not completely innocent!" Sesshomaru smirked at Sango, "I thought as much, Slayer."

Miroku found his voice, "Are you really that afraid of what I might do to you?" Miroku's wind tunnel had vanished since Naraku's death.

"No, I did it to be amused by the look you have on your face right now."(Author's note: oh, that asshole!)

InuYasha was getting up at last, several minor cuts(well, for him at least) covered his body. "The last thing I need is another cold heartless basterd like Naraku running around!" He lifted his sword high above his head and jumped up, ready to strike his brother down.

"InuYasha, no!" Miroku shouted.

"He'll hurt Sango!" Kagome's head spun around, for she had just grabbed hold of her bow and arrows. InuYasha stopped half way, thrusting his sword into the ground.

"Dammit," he growled.

"Careful, InuYasha, I sincerely doubt you would want to be the cause of your friend's premature demise," Sesshomaru said calmly.

"I will not be overpowered so easily!" Sango chimed in angrily. She elbowed him in the gut, causing him to release her out of surprise. Luckily, her feet were able to support her now, so she could move around freely.

"So you do have some fight left in you?" Sesshomaru said, "Quite impressive, for a human that is. I should think you would have had enough, after what I did to your shoulder." Sango glared at him.

"What- your shoulder- Sango, what did he do?" Miroku asked in a worried tone.

"Never mind that, Houshi-sama, I'm fine," Sango returned.

"Sango, get out of the way!" InuYasha yelled, ready to face his brother once again. Sango leapt out of range, "Go to it, InuYasha!" she shouted to him. InuYasha let out a battle cry that could be heard from almost a mile away, "DIE!" Sesshomaru dodged, of course, and for the second time that day, released his energy whip.

"A worthless half-breed such as you is not worthy of having the same blood as the lord of the Western Lands!" He hit InuYasha across the back with his whip, leaving an enormous slash mark. The blood was pouring from the wound fast, and as InuYasha's blood left him, so did his strength He let out a yell of pain, and Kagome called out his name. Sesshomaru abandoned his whip and just began slashing InuYasha with his poison claws. Sesshomaru was so busy cutting his brother to shreds that he didn't notice the three humans behind him. Miroku began to run at Sesshomaru, ready to do anything in his power to help his friend. Kagome drew her bow, but quickly stopped. She couldn't risk hitting InuYasha. Sango ran in front of Miroku.

"Stop, Houshi-sama!" she commanded him.

"Why should I stop, InuYasha's in mortal peril!" As Miroku said this, InuYasha fell to his knees, and then on his stomach, lying flat and motionless.

"I know I can bring him down in one strike!" Sango told Miroku. "You believe I can do it, don't you!" Miroku paused a second, but he slowly shook his head "Yes.Yes, I know you can do it," he said.

Miroku backed off so Sango could get a clear shot. "HIRAIKOTSU!" she roared as she threw the giant boomerang. Sesshomaru sensed something, so he turned- just in time to get walloped in the shoulder and thrown back.(Author's note: Hell yeah, kick ass, Sango!) Kagome and Miroku pulled InuYasha away. Sango however, stood beside Sesshomaru, who was still "pinned" to the ground. Sango smiled triumphantly, "An eye for an eye, and ear for an ear, AND A SHOULDER FOR A SHOULDER! Perhaps next time you will believe me when I say that I can fight!"

Now Sesshomaru had a small smile on his face, "Perhaps I shall," he said in almost a whisper. Sango didn't like his tone. Sesshomaru used demon speed to grab Sango's ankle, and bring her down right next to him on the ground...
