"You… kill me… isn't that a laugh?" Sesshomaru replied with a grunt and swinging his sword back at the woman. "Sesshomaru what are you doing here?" Inuyasha asked, not rudely, but calm. "I going to finish our fight." Sesshomaru replied back looking at Azon. "Don't at him look at me!" Kasumi shouted throwing multiple boulders at Sesshomaru. Sesshomaru gracefully dodged. "Is that the best you've got?" Sesshomaru smirked. Kasumi vein boiled with angry. "You are a demon yet you can't fight half as good as Inuyasha!" Sesshomaru said. Kasumi had enough. "Oh really!" she screamed. "At least my father didn't treat me unfair! Giving me an abandoned technique! At least my father loved me!" she screamed. Sesshomaru was exceedingly angry about the last thing she said. Sesshomaru's eyes started to glow red, but then Rin popped out a bush and punched Kasumi in the face. "Please don't talk about Sesshomaru that way…" she said in a sweet voice. "Or else I'll get mad!" she continued in a not so sweet voice.

Sesshomaru's eyes returned to its original golden color when this happed. "Rin…" he almost whispered. Kasumi rubbed he cheek. The red mark on her cheek was starting to swell. Azon ran over to Kasumi. "K-Kasumi! Are you ok?" he stuttered. "Move away Azon! I'm really mad!" she said standing up slowly. The earth around them rumbled. Rocks started flying everywhere. Inuyasha quickly got up, now move recovered from the blow he had received, and went over to help up kagome or more like to protect her. Rin was trying her best to dodge the rocks, but she started getting hit with pebbles, then regular sized rocks, and bigger. The speed increased unto the rock and before long a rock smacked Rin across the face making her hit the ground. Sesshomaru rushed over to Rin and placed his hand on her cheek. "Not Rin… I will not let her die again…" he mumbled pulling put his Bakusagia. "Not again!" he yelled charging at Kasumi. He stabbed her. Kasumi feel to the ground. 'Where did he stab me…' she pondered. She looked down realizing that she had not been stabbed, but Azon who had protected her had gotten two of his fingers on the right hand chopped off. "Ahh!" Kasumi screamed when she realized this. "Kasumi… let's go now…ok?" Azon mumbled before passing out. "You'll pay for what you have done Sesshomaru!" she said placing Azon on her back and drifting off into the sky. Sesshomaru prepared to go after, but was stopped by Rin's hand on his. "Thank you Sesshomaru…" she mumbled before passing out.

"Damn him for doing this to you Azon!" Kasumi said caring for Azon's injury. "It's ok because in the end I got to protect you…" he said back. Kasumi smiled at him then softly punched him in the shoulder. "You thing our master could fix this…" Kasumi said looking at his hand. "I don't know… let's go ask…" Azon said getting up from the castle's floor. The walked down a hall with red velvet carpet and green walls. The walked up to a door with golden lace around it. They knocked on it before entering. "Azon… Kasumi… what has happened?" a voice said. "The Sesshomaru cut off some of Azon's fingers!" Kasumi shouted way louder than she needed to. "Azon… I can replace your fingers, but these are not permanent." The voice said. Sparkles appeared around Azon's hand and his finger when replaced by steel ones. "Thank you master!" he said happily. "But is there anything I can do to make these fingers mine?" he asked. "Of course… the blood of the one who chopped them off." Azon nodded in agreement and motioned that it was time for him and his sister to leave.

"What fools they are! And who would have thought that the great priestess Kagome wouldn't detect this!" he said holding up a jewel shard. The man walked over to a alter. "don't worry Naraku… your work will not be in vain…"
