Forsaken

Sparring and...Revenge?

(Please note that I have absolutely no experience in writing fight scenes, please try to bear with my first attempt. I would love to hear constructive criticism to better my next one!)

Dealing with Kagome for over an hour had Inuyasha glad for the work out that he knew was coming up. He really wanted to go up against his brother, though, as he had not fought with the older inu since before he left the gang. He wanted a real fight, though sparring with his mate was fun, they knew each other to well for one to have an advantage over the other, but drove each other to the next level.

Inuyasha entered the dojo still dressed in his submissive robes and had changed his hairstyle back to the three braid, high ponytail. It was more convenient for fighting and he had not felt the need to change as he highly doubted that anyone besides his mate or Sesshoumaru would actually cause his clothing to become dirty. All the children in the palace were also present in one capacity or another, well those children that were old enough to attend on their own. Shippou was there and looked eager to see his Momma and Papa fight the others in the room. They were the top fighters of their town.

"You will pick a stick and your opponents name will be on it. It will go this way until every person has two matches. The person they chose and the person that chose them." Sesshoumaru's vassal, Jaken, announced before going about with the cup of sticks. Inuyasha was going to show Kagome that just because he was a submissive he was not weak, but in fact stronger than ever. His chosen opponent happened to be Kouga of the Northern Lands. Oh he was going to have so much fun and he would not even have to draw either of his swords. Inuyasha sat against the far wall next to Shippou and awaited his turn. The lord of the Eastern Lands was starting and whoever won would stay up there to go against whoever they chose or who had chosen them. Nihai called out the name of one of his companion warriors. Hands down the lord bested his warrior. Matches continued until Mozinth was called to match against the Ichigin of the Southern Lands.

The opponents stood inside the perimeter of the circle and took their battle stances. The first match was hand to hand combat, the second would be a weapons match, and the third was for a tie-break (any means). Ichigin stood in the basic form that all lords are taught from childhood. He stood with his left leg forward, his right leg bent directly under him, his body turned so that only his side was facing his opponent, his right hand fisted in front of his nose, and his left hand fisted against his chest. Mozinth did not take up a similar stance. Zinny stood on the balls of his feet, his left leg was slightly forward, his right was slightly back, and his hands were both curled into claws positioned in front of his chest while his front face his opponent head on. Ichigin scoffed at the open stance and began his attack. The southern lord feinted to the right before bringing his knee up on Mozinth's left side to attack the supposedly unguarded ribcage. Mozinth dropped his left elbow quickly allowing it to absorb the blow before extending his arm outward and grabbing the lord's thigh. Using the balls of his feet, he sprung forward and brought his right hand into the lord's abdomen following it through with the hard point of his elbow, making sure that it raked across the ribs for further damage. While Ichigin was trying to recover from the blows, Mozinth used the arm that still had hold of the lord's thigh to toss the royal right out of the circle and, thus, disqualifying him from further matches. He bowed to his opponent out of respect and called out the name of the person he had chosen. It was another unknown warrior from the Southern Lands group.

Finally it was Inuyasha's turn and he had gotten his wish of being able to fight with his brother. Inuyasha entered the circle with his brother, whom he was sure had rigged the system to get this match, and both took their positions. As with the previous lords, Sesshoumaru took up the same basic stance. Inuyasha stance was different even though he was of royal blood. The pup had never felt really comfortable with the stance anyway. Inuyasha spread his feet the width it would take to sit on a horse and bent his body down as if he were sitting on one. His back was straight, his right hand curle like a claw was raised in front of his neck with the palm facing outward, and his left hand was opened straight with the palm outward and lowered in front of his groin. Sesshoumaru merely raised an eyebrow at the awkward looking stance, but waited for the other inu to attack. Inuyasha did not budge an inch, blink, or even twitch a muscle. They stood there in their respective stances for nearly twenty minutes before Sesshoumaru decided to get the show on the road. Sesshoumaru gave a test strike at Inuyasha's face, but the hanyou did not move to dodge the blow because the fist did not reach his face. Sesshoumaru pulled back and attacked for real. The demon lord shifted from his weight forward and brought his left fist to attack Inuyasha's seemingly unprotected belly. The hanyou twisted his left foot so that his knee was touching the ground and his left hand lifted to strike Sesshoumaru in his newly opened abdomen. The royal was pushed back by the unexpected blow, but recovered quickly as Inuyasha resumed his stance. Inuyasha did not remain unmoving, however, and shifted his weight to the balls of his feet before springing into action.

Inuyasha's stance changed from the horse stance that he had been in to one similar to Mozinths, the hand positions never changed, though his clawed hand became open like his lowered left hand was. Inuyasha's blows reigned hard and fast while Sesshoumaru tried to keep up. It seemed the faster he tried to dodge or block, the faster Inuyasha's blows came at him. Inuyasha's strikes also seemed to be hitting with a fair amount of accuracy as they repeatedly hit Sesshoumaru's ribs, stomach, chest, and glancing blows at his hips. Inuyasha was only hitting his aniki with open palms as he did not want to really hurt him, the clawed hand could do some real damage. Sesshoumaru was finally forced to admit defeat when his otouto had pushed him to the perimeter of the circle. He did not want to be disqualified before his saw his brother's swordmanship. They both took a five minute breather as well as to another five minutes to arm themselves properly. Sesshoumaru carried only Tokijin with him while Inuyasha carried a single sword, but it was not Tessaiga. Sesshoumaru drew his sword first and waited for Inuyasha to pull his own. Inuyasha drew the blade forged by Zora's hand using his own blood. The blade was slender, straight, and shimmered back and forth between the normal silver-grey and blood red. It looked like the ebbing and rising tide of the ocean, coming and going. The kanji for 'Forsaken' was etched into the blade near the hilt and the sword thrummed with an unholy power. All in the room were hypnotized by the waves of raw power that radiated from the blade, even Mozinth and Shippou were captivated by it as neither had seen the sword outside of its sheath. Inuyasha had had it forged not long after Aiya had been weaned from his nipple. The blade was simply awe-inspiring.

Inuyasha gave a smirk and turned the backwards so that the flat of it lay along his forearm as he bit the thumb of his other hand. The inu-hanyou placed the bleeding digit against the butt of his sword and pulled it straight out. The blood attached itself to the butt of the blade and solidified, becoming an exact replica of Forsaken. When the twin sword was completely formed, Inuyasha turned it backwards as well so that the flat was resting against his forearm and he began the attack. The blades whirled from his arms like pinwheels making it hard for even Sesshoumaru to tell if the blade was coming or going. The constantly changing colors of the sword was also extremely distracting and Sesshoumaru found that no matter where he struck, his attack was always countered. By the end of thirty minutes, Sesshoumaru admitted defeat, again, and walked away from the circle with his once pristine clothes in tatters while Inuyasha looked, for all the world, as if he had just taken an afternoon stroll. Inuyasha let go of the twin blade and three droplets of blood fell to the floor. He took the stick from his pocket and read off the name.

"Lord Kouga of the Northern Lands." All heads turned to see the conspicuously sweating lord.

(I was so just going to leave it here, but I figured that would be cruel. ENJOY!)

Kouga stood on shaky legs to face the hanyou that even had the great Sesshoumaru beat. He just knew that he was in for it. He really wished that the floor would just open up and swallow him at that moment, but life was always being unfair. The frightened demon lord entered the circle and gulped at the purely evil smile that had overtook Inuyasha's face. Many bodies around the room shivered at the look that promised pure pain for the Northern Lord. Many question marks were raised above people's heads as they wondered what Lord Kouga had done to get on the hanyou's bad side and there was no mistaking that the lord was on Inuyasha's bad side. Not everyone could produce an evil look like that at the drop of a hat.

Inuyasha re-entered the circle after having place his sword with his mate. When he got ready, he did not take up the same stance that he had defended and attacked Sesshoumaru with. Inuyasha had his right leg slightly forward, his left leg under him, both legs were bent, and he had both of his hands hanging between his legs curled into claws with his back hunched forward. Kouga looked confused at the drastic change of stance but took up his own. The wolf's differed slightly in that their body faced their opponents, but still basically the same as the other lords'. Inuyasha did not wait for Kouga to attack, he went in (all open palmed as he did not want to kill the demon lord, that was just bad manners) hitting vital spots with the barest of strength, but still crippling his opponent. Inuyasha danced a circle around the wolf tribes' fastest wolf, hitting the kidneys, spine, spleen, lungs, and the back of the head ( that is not a vital spot, Inuyasha just wanted to give the bastard one helluva headache-think super hangover times three;). When the hanyou finally stopped, Kouga was face down on the ground and unwanting to move.

"I disqualify myself!" Kouga called before promptly blacking out. Inuyasha frowned, but shrugged his shoulders and went to sit by Shippou who was bouncing up and down with excitement while bragging to the other children. Inuyasha sat next to Shippou and pulled the kit close to him.

"What have I told you about bragging, brat?" Inuyasha asked softly. Shippou's brows wrinkled in thought as he tried to remember.

"It is not very nice to do it?" He asked looking at Inuyasha blankly. The hanyou was not falling for it as the blank look was just as bad as the innocent look he had tried to pull off when he was still a toddler.

"That and when we brag, we may hurt others. It is okay to praise someone for their efforts, but bragging is to imply that someone is lesser than you and that may not always be the case. Okay?" Inuyasha reprimanded gently.

"Yes, Momma." Shippou said snuggling into the warmth that Inuyasha's body provided, his eyes becoming as the day caught up with him. Inuyasha gave his mate a questioning look and got a nod in return. Inuyasha shifted and stood with Shippou in his arms. He walked out with the kit that was quickly falling prey to the sandman. He would tuck the boy in, check on Aiya, and then wait for the return of his mate in their own rooms. Inuaysha tucked Shippou in and kissed the smooth forehead, telling the child 'goodnight' before turning to leave.

"'Night, Momma." Inuyasha smiled at that and continued to leave the kit's room to check in on Aiya. The ten year old toddler (does that not just sound weird?) was sleeping peacefully and deeply. Inuyasha gave her a kiss as well before returning to the luxurious accommodations that his aniki insisted they stay in. Inuyasha undressed and washed himself before drying and taking his hair down. He pulled on a regular sleep yukuta, though he knew it was not going to be on for long. He brushed his hair and then laid down to rest before his mate came in to get some real exercise before going to bed. Inuyasha did not mind despite how it may seem to others. He really hoped he had gotten it through to Kagome that though they were submissives they were not weak in any way, shape, form, or fashion. Inuyasha heard the door to their rooms open and then the quiet steps of his mate.

"Trying to fall asleep on me, little one?" Zinny teased his beautiful mate. Inuyasha chuckled before pulling himself up and shaking his head. Zinny walked over to the lithe, small body that was all his. As soon as he was close enough, Inuyasha threw his arms around Mozinth and pulled the larger down into the bed with him kissing him deeply.

"I want to ride you...hard," Zinny gave a full body shudder at those words and nodded eagerly, giving in quite easily to his submissive's demand. Inuyasha literally ripped Mozinth's clothes off in attempt to savor his alpha's flesh and Zinny could not have cared less as long as Inuyasha continued to work his sinful mouth on his skin. Inuyasha nipped and sucked at his alpha's neck, marking the flesh bright red-purple under the cover of the night. When the inu-hanyou was satisfied with the mark he had made, he moved lower until he reached one of the dusky pebbles on his Zinny's chest. He swirled his tongue around the nub before suckling and nibbling on the enticing peak. When he finish with one, he moved to the other while his hands remained busy exploring and further arousing his mate. When both nipples were fully abused, Inuyasha went further south until he reached his goal and took his mate completely to the root, enjoying how Zinny tried to arch beneath him. Submissives were the ones that were really in control of the relationship, they just allowed the alphas to believe that they made the decisions. Inuyasha smiled around his mouthful at the thought before going back to work while he began preparing himself to take Zinny's thick steel into his body. Before Mozinth had time to think a coherent thought, Inuyasha had taken his mouth away and slammed himself down over the sensitive, angy looking cock. Inuyasha stuck to his work and began to ride his alpha hard. He pulled himself up slowly until just the head remained captured by his body before slamming himself down hard and grinding himself against Zinny's groin, then repeated the process over and over again until his mouth opened in a silent scream as he came all over his mate. He pulled himself free of his mate and deep-throated him again. He would think about another child after Naraku was defeated and Aiya aged a bit more. With howl that would put any other dog demon to shame, Mozinth came hard down Inuyasha's throat. Inuyasha swallowed all that was offered to him before crawling up his alpha's body and kissing him hard.

"Mmmm, definitely knew there was a reason I love you so much." Zinny murmured half way to the land of dreams.

"Yeah, I think I love you too. Haven't fig'ed why though." Inuyasha responded in kind before snuggling as close as physically possible and letting out a deep breath that signaled he was almost asleep. Mozinth placed one more kiss upon his submissive's forehead before heading into the land of dreams.
