Chapter 15--BATTLES,Battles for all

Thank you for the feed back. Oh and Happy Halloween or All Hallows Eve. However you prefere.

Okay here goes the story. I own nothing as I have said multiple times.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Inuyasha stared at Kikyo as she released the arrow. Inuyasha didn't flinch still so surprised about seeing her. Be fore the arrow struck him though Ichigo jumped in front of Inuyasha and repelled the arrow with his sword. Kikyo growled in frustration and knocked another arrow. Ichigo turned behind him and yelled "Orihime get Inuyasha and Hanataro out of here! Chad you stay here and Uryu go with them!" Everyone nodded. Orihime pulled the still dazed Inuyasha back down the hall with Uryu running behind them. Chad walked up to Ichigo.

"What do you want me to do." Ichigo dodged an arrow and drew his sword up.

"Not get shot." Chad smirked a little and transformed his arm.

Kikyo shot another arrow missing them completely. Growling low in her throat she gathered her soul stealers. She lifted an arm and pointed at them. "Go." The soul stealers raced toward the 2 heros. Ichigo and Chad quickly turned and ran.

They had to find a hiding place. Ichigo was only there in soul so he could get hurt not to mention without Chad's arm they were helpless. Ichigo felt a nip at the back of his neck but quickly sped up. Up about 10 feet was a corner. Rounding the corner he ran face to face to Ikkaku. His eyes were glazed over and he seemed almost robotic. Ichigo was about to back track when footsteps could be heard. Then the cold voice sounded. "Ikkaku...Naraku says to kill them." Ikkaku said nothing.

Ichigo wondered if he could be drugged but then Ikkaku nodded and brought up the sword. He was about to bring it down on Ichigo when a body blocked the blow. Chad struggled against the zanpakuto as Ikkaku put pressure on the sword. Chad gritted his teeth. "Ichigo, I got this. You fight the woman." Ichigo nodded and turned around. Kikyo faced him. She turned and took off on her soul stealers down the corridor. Ichigo chased after her.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Uryu, Inuyasha, and Orihime ran on the ground. Inuyasha stopped and sat Hanataro down. He sniffed the air.

"Inuyasha can you target her location?" Inuyasha looked at Uryu.

"No not yet. Can you sense anything?" Uryu and Orihime shook their heads.

Inuyasha sighed and picked up Hanataro again. "Can't we leave him? He is weighing me down." Uryu nodded and with a little effort Uryu and Inuyasha got the unconcious boy in an alley hidden from sight. Turning around they took off again. A shinigami came up to them that they had never seen. He was short but young. He had brown hair and a gaint sword. He stopped and drew his sword. "Hello. I am here to kill you." He transformed his sword. It elongated and grew to about the size of Inuyasha's sword. It had teeth like a saw. The boy looked at them. "Like the sword? Thanks I just graduated." He spoke really fast and the sword threw a bunch of the spikes at them. Orihime ducked and Uryu jumped. Inuyasha pulled his sword and reflected most of the spikes.

The boy pouted. "Ohh. You aren't dead yet.Oh well I must try harder." He transformed the zanpakuto again and the spikes came. inuyasha dodged and ran. Orihime ran over to Uryu who had gotten nicked on the face. She spoke some words and flashes appeared. Uryu was quickly healed. Orihime held her head.

Uryu looked up. "Ar eyou okay?"

"Yea I'm fine. I just have a headache. Ahhhhhhhhh!!!" She screamed and passed out. Inuyasha and Uryu looked towards the boy. His hands were up and he was muttering. He smirked. "Like the power? I can mentally overpower those in lesser soul power than me. Your girlfriend had pretty weak power. But you, young Quincy have much more." Uryu growled.

The boy muttered the words again and threw spikes. Inuyasha and Uryu flipped to avoid them and landed next to Orihime. Uryu looked at Inuyasha. "I have an Idea. Whenever he does the attack he leaves himself open to attacks."

"So?"

"So next time he does the attack aim for his torso. Got it?" Inuyasha nodded. "Ok. Lets do this." They stood up.

"So your still alive. I think this has been my biggest chalenge yet. No matter." He muttered the words and the spikes glowed and released. Inuyasha pushed Uryu out of the way and ran to the person. He brought back his sword and thrusted it. A scream was heard and Inuyasha looked.

RIght through the center of the boy was Inuyasha's fang. The boy fell over. Inuyasha sighed. Walking back to the humans he picked up Orihime and helped Uryu up.

He sniffed the air. "I smell 'em. Kagome and Naraku. They're that way." He pointed that way and they took off at a dead run.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ichigo chased after Kikyo. She dissapeared and Ichigo lost track. He rounded a corner and she was at the end of the hall. She drew an arrow and fired. Ichigo jumped oput of the way and drew his sword.

The soul stealers came after him. He deflected them and made a run for her. She fired another arrow but missed.

Ichigo stabbed her through the stomach and she fell dead. (Again.) The soul stealers faded.

"Ahhhhhhhhh." 'That sounded like Orihime.' He turned around and ran. He rounded all the corners and found Chad.

Chad threw a punch but hit a wall. You could tell he was tired. Sweat beaded his forehead and his punches were slower. Ikkaku stabbed Chad and Chad fell over. Ichigo wasted no time and ran toward Ikkaku. He stbbed the man in the back. Not in the major organs so not fatal but enough to knock him out.

Running to Chad he helped him up. Ichigo and Chad limped to the sound of Orihime's scream. What they came across they did not expect...

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Inuyasha followed the smell. He ran to the tower and busted through the door. He heard footsteps behind him. TUrning around he stopped Uryu who still had Orihime in his arms.

"Guys you cant go up there. I will go up alone. You are in no condition and she is still weak." Uryu was about to protest when he saw that Inuyasha's face held no room for argument. He nodded and sat Orihime down.

Inuyasha ran up the stairs 2 at a time. Finally he just jumped up. Following his nose he sniffed the air.

Facing a door he busted it open. "Kagome!!!" A lone figure stood in the middle of the room in a cloak. "Kagome..." HE ran to the person and turned them around. "Inuyasha." Inuyasha gasped...
