Kagome's POV
The fire blazes on the roof tops ,as a create more sparks with my miko power: summoned a purple sphere between my two hands , and one dark shard appears . I release some energy , allowing millions of shards to fly out .
Bankotsu swings his sword around , allowing a dark purple thunder to appear , crashing into the untouched houses . All the people are dead , or just faking . Except one .
A chubby man . His back into a corner , Bankotsu ready to kill him . Raising his sword .
"Nooo!," He screams .
Blood splatters all over Bankotsu's armour .
We raided the houses before we created the destruction .
"Than was fun," Bankotsu said . "I just wish you would of left a women or two for me"
I rolled my eyes . The sphere is gone by the time I count all our things .
"five hundred and forty two yen," I call out . Were sitting around and untouched barn with demon seals all over them . Bankotsu is looking at his armour
Bankotsu is busy looking down a his shirt . "Miko ," he calls . I only look half way up at him . "Wash my armour" His demanding me .
I hiss . "Do you want the same fait as those men?," I snarl .
Bankotsu laughs . "I suppose I'll have to find a women that's less of a threat!" he rubs his armour awkwardly .
I chew on some meat , it's thick . I start to wonder …
"Bankotsu," I call . He looks at me . "Where are your brothers?," I ask .
He smiles . "On missions , just like us," he says . " Ginkotsu and Suikotsuo are busy with destruction", he waved his hands , in a circling movement to show he didn't care .
"What about Renkotsu ?," I asked .
"He only has one mission with them , then he has a private mission," he said flatly . He leaned his back against the thin old barn . His eyes were closed , he was so chilled .
"And the others?," I ask chewing on some more meat .
Bankotsu laughs . "Mukotsu is busy trying to find a 'perfect' wife," he laughs "and Kyokotsu is busy , finding that wolf" .
I leaned against the barn as well , slowly drifting to sleep with my ryes open . Bankotsu's aura was so warm and comforting . Why didn't I feel this before ?
My miko powers : little purifying sparks scattered across my kimono , chest . The purple sparks formed together making a short bolt . I controlled it and shot it at bush . The bush was set on fire instantly . Wow.
"Your getting better," he murmured . I grunted .
I could feel a presence of an insect approach . One hovered above our heads, with a letter . Bankotsu accept the letter , then showed it to me .
Now that the both of you are updated and equated ,
Your mission is to travel east of Hubra there you will
Find Mekta , a former ally , his a Storm demon , with
Hundreds of allies . Kill him and collect each and every
Shard he possesses .
After that you two shall depart , the miko retreating the jewel shards
Back to me . Bankotsu you shall continue your mission with your brothers .
Follow the insect to your destination for this and your next missions .
Hundreds . Okay so there are hundreds of demons , me and my powers could handle it . Especially Bankotsu , he could handle any demon . I mean he did almost kill the pathetic Inuyasha .
Was Naraku trying to scare us ? Hu I don't care , I just want to know get this over with .
Inuyasha's POV
We're there . The demonic aura is wafting everywhere . I can smell blood . All kinds .And wet hair . Where is it coming from ?
We arrive in some next damp , dingy swamp . Our feet sinking into the sludge .
Yuck . I feel smell other things , humans . The swamp is dark and a black smog is blocking my vision . Kouga is with Alley , holding her up .
"Alley," I call . She and Kouga looks at me . "What can you hear?," I ask .
She shakes her head and whispers "Nothing"
The smog thickens , and so does the sludge , I can't move my feet . Or see Alley or Kouga . Giten and Hakkaku were up in the air , blinded by the fog .
"Giten!," I yelled , shielding my eyes and nose . No reply . The fog now was solid : making the landscape and sky completely black .
Laughing broke the silence . I focused on the man standing in front of me . Renkotsu .
"Let's finish our little match, shall we?," he said .
I growled . The large jewel shard glew in his neck and arm , as large bolts of thunder and fire shot out of his arms.
Kouga's POV
Alley panicked like crazy whispering weird things like :
"Pain , blood , revenge ," over again , hands tightly griping around my neck .
I heard a scream it sounded like Inuyasha's , just then I smelt blood . Demon blood .
Someone was here . I felt them .
"Show your self!," I yelled .
Chuckling echoed around the black empty atmosphere . I recognized it . Jakotsu .
"Why hello , little wolf," he sang. He walked in front of me . "Ahh , I see you have company , how interesting.."
He licked his lips.
Swished his sword , I saw the blades and jumped out off the way .
"I'll kill you ,"he said "then have a little fun with her , maybe Mukotsu will want her," he sniggered .
What , no! I'll never let that happen .
Released my wolf energy and swished my claw blades at him . He only countered them with his blades that spun at us .
Once again I jumped out the way . But on blade struck me .
"No," Alley whispered . She placed her hand on my shoulder , healing me .
"Thanks," I said .
"Oh so she's a demon," he said . "Then Mukotsu definitely will want her!"
I spat . No way in hell .
He winged his blade back , preparing another wave of blades .
"No," Alley whispered . Out of no where a thick stream of water came and whipped Jakotsu , he fell back , his body smashed against something I couldn't see.
"Why you," he snarled .
Six blades cut straight past me , smashing against Alley. she flew back , the blades still in her .
"Alley!," before I could save her more blades were following me . I jumped out the way . Jakotsu created more and more , distracting me from saving Alley . I jumped away again : I was so close to Alley , but if i was to jump out the way the blades would only hit her , I wasn't going to risk that .
I jumped away again , but this time near Jakotsu . The blades slicked across Jakotsu's face , he couldn't even react how fast they were .
He fumbled into the ground grunting .
I collected Alley , she wasn't healing her self.
"Alley?," I called . "Alley!,"
Jakotsu was chuckling . "River demon's can't be healed from a snake blades," he hissed .
No . She was bleeding all over . Took my sword out a slashed a wolf's element at him , it hit him and I smelt deep blood.
I picked her up . This couldn't be happening .
Her heart beat was slowing down . By the second .
I gripped her tightly with both hands . I felt like crying . And huge hep of sadness overcame my body , shutting down my track of thought .
That's when Jakotsu's sword slashed seven blade all into my back , before he fainted . I didn't care much . The pain grew more intense until I flew over Alley , unconsciously .
Narration
His brothers were taking care of the two , even if he wanted revenge on the one that damaged him .
He could see the Black out smoke barrier across the swamp . His job was simple . To take out the two flying up there , sleeping . The demon they were sleeping on was also a sleep . Perfect and easy Kill .
He extended his large had out to them , but before he could touch on of them pain seeped through his newly regained hand .
His hand burst into purple pieces . It was her . An purifying bow destroyed his hand .
He faced her . She was reloading two arrows , pointing them both and the his head .
He clapped his hands large hands together , causing a earthquake , as well as strong amplified air waves to crash into her .
She still couldn't aim her bow , she accidentally shot one bow , that smashed into a willow tree .
Before she knew it he was in the palm of his large hand . Him slowly crushing her . His aura forced her miko to kick into overload sending large shock waves down his body . He dropped her , she landed on her feet safety , loading and aiming the arrows at his head . Without hesitation she shot them . Half way through midair they swerved towards her and flying at full speed . She summoned an barrier over her body . The arrows only broke in , crashing into small pieces .
She didn't understand . How could her arrows turn on her ? Could he of controlled them . No . They still had the glow of her purification , then how . Why?
The beast aroused , the shard glowing strongly .
She had to kill him . And quick .
Another arrow was loaded , she slowly pulled the tune back , summoning more power .
Ping
The arrow sawed the through the air , scarping the last scents of tension away .
I collided against his ugly skin .
No . That was her last one .
She only had her miko powers . That were weak , she thought she would be able to kill the demon , swiftly and collect his shards . No full miko energy needed .
But she was wrong .
The man beast smashed his fists into the ground , causing another large earthquake . The miko fell back , he seized the moment and picked her up by her neck , with two fingers . Lifting her up hundreds of metres in the air so she would face him .If only Mukotsu and Ginkotsu were here , they would enjoy this deeply , he thought to him self .
His cut was bad , but he would made her pay for that . She struggled to breathe free of his grip . She could feel the small breeze of air blow between her legs . She was definitely in the air . He did not strangle her , only hold violently by her neck .
He wanted to watch her squirm before he killed her .
Very little energy left , she acted without fully thinking . Releasing her sparks of miko energy onto man-beast . He dropped the miko instantly , his hands now fully bleeding .
She dropped to the fall , only to find her left arm injured , badly . Blood dripping . She could not let this stop her . Drawing her last essences of power , letting loose bolts of purification electricity on the man-beast .
His body fell to the ground , sparks of purple purification still infecting him . Pulled back her arm , thrashing it into the man-beasts neck and arm , she collected two more jewel shards .
The man-beast was surprisingly still alive .
She had no time to ponder this she had other shards to collect . Since the black barrier was obviously not going to be lifted she moved on .
Kagome's POV
"How is he?," Bankotsu asked .
I was meditating when I intercepted something happening far away , that's when I realised I could use my senses and my miko powers in different places .
I was preserving one of Bankotsu's brothers . His soul yearned for the after life , but I didn't let his body or spirit move on . My invisible sphere stopped everything from happening .
"His fine ." I said . I had to keep focus on him , my sphere took a lot of energy . I concentrated on making an origin for life in his body . First I thought of a heart beat . Then I thought of running blood . The out of no where I saw this purple light in my head and around my sphere/ barrier . Next thing I now I hear a single heart beat out of him .
"I'm done," I proclaimed .
I told Bankotsu what I was planning on doing before .
"But the priestess arrow still-"
He raised his hand silencing me . "As long as his alive"
I didn't have to close my eyes anymore :Kyoukotsu was alive , breathing heavily . I noticed something weird . But I wiped it out of my mind . He was still sleeping , I wanted to see if I could talk to him . Telepathically .
- Kyoukotsu , I called in my mind . Kyoukotsu , you are alive now . At this point I closed my eyes and focused . What were Naraku's orders ? I asked .
--To destroy the wolves companions and the collect their shards . He says . His under a trance , his voice is like a robots .
- and after that ?
- kill the leader wolf , the dog demon , then give their shards to Naraku .
I smiled . Typical Naraku . I'm pretty sure Joker must of copied off of him : kill the guy who gives you .
Anyway .
- Don't do that , kill the do-
No I want to kill Inuyasha my self . Why should I let Kyoukotsu have the pleasure .
- Assists your fellow brother in injuring the dog demon , when enough damage is done leave ,and continue with your mission .
-Disobey Naraku ?
- Would you rather disobey the person you easily bought you back to life ?
He didn't reply Telepathically , too scared . I felt his nerves rattle .
-A you wish . He said weakly .
I disconnected my mind off of him .
"His fine ," I said again smiling . Me and Bankotsu set off , now were following the insect .
As we left I admired the lovely smell of burning clay from the roofs . That's the smell that Inuyasha will soon smell : the smell of Kikyuo's face and body burning . Before I kill him . Burning pure empty clay .
