Kagome's Tale or Kagome's Tail!
Chapter 6: A New Battle with a New Enemy
Last Time: "Draw you sword Princess and let your anger flood your thoughts and cloud your mind," whispered Saura as he drew his own sword and rested it on his broad shoulder.
This Time:
Kagome stood straight and drew Anajack from its sapphire sheath, all the while glaring at the dangerous and deadly beauty that had tried to hurt Shippou. Suddenly, her sword became alarmingly heavy and Kagome had to drop the sword's tip to withstand its massive weight. Her eyes widened marginally but her face betrayed no expression. 'Why is my sword so heavy all of a sudden?' the young wolf princess pondered, fingering the sapphires on its sheath and hilt. Inuyasha walked up to Kagome and pulled out the Tetsusaiga then crossing it with Anajack. "Stand down Inuyasha! This is my fight! He hurt my son and my pack and I won't let him get away with it!" barked Kagome, her eyes gleaming a dangerous ember red. However, her mate stood firm. "He's my son too and I have no intention on breaking your fight but you need to calm yourself otherwise that sword will get worse in weight," whispered Inuyasha, remembering something that he read as a child on swords.
Kagome looked at her mate with suspicion, took a few breaths and her sword became much lighter. She threw a smile Inuyasha's way and got into her stance, still glaring at the young demon. "Let's see if you are faster than me, my dear hime," snickered Saura as he wrapped his left hand around the blade of his sword, piercing his pale skin. Kagome scoffed," I probably am." She knew that her threat was empty but it gave her the confidence that she needed to fight. Saura laughed and flew towards the goddess-like demon with god-like speed that surpassed even Sesshomaru's. Kagome's eyes tried to follow the demon's quick movements out of reflex but she lost the demon in a matter of seconds. She then focused her hearing on the wind and heard it scraping loudly near her body. She swung her sword gracefully towards the sound and it clashed with Saura's sword. The metal of the blades hit each other with a deafening ring and sparks flew past their faces.
"Not bad. You used your superior hearing to find me. Pretty clever for a little girl," chuckled the notorious speed-youkai, pushing Kagome to the ground with his sword. Kagome struggled desperately against the horrible demon that was pinning her to the ground. 'I have to think of a way out of this. Maybe I could use one of the powers that I gained with becoming a demon,' thought the young demon princess as she used her strength to keep the blade from slitting her thin throat. "What's the matter my dear? Cat got your tongue?" laughed Saura, pressing even harder on the sword to where it was touching Kagome's delicate throat. "Come now, my dear. Is this how your life is going to end? With your tail between your legs like a scared little dog?" whispered Saura into Kagome's ear maliciously. Kagome's eyes narrowed greatly and her body was surrounded by a hunter green light. The symbol on her forehead shone brightly, blinding the hateful demon and causing him to stumble.
"Never call me a dog! I am a proud wolf demon of the Northern Lands!" snarled Kagome. Kagome jumped back onto a rock and held her sword above her head. She started to chant a magic spell under her breath, closing her eyes to prepare for it, her sword glowing brightly. 'Clever as her father, I'll give her that much but she has no idea how to summon her true potential,' thought Saura as his vision became clear and his eyes settled on the young girl. Kagome's eyes popped open and they were now an emerald green in color. "Body Bind!" exclaimed Kagome, smirking for she had caught her enemy in a trap. She then ran towards Saura but when she was close enough to strike the demon, she felt Saura's blade slit her stomach. Kagome staggered backwards, clutching the wound on her stomach. "How did you break my spell?" asked Kagome while dropping to her knees, resulting in a fresh rush of blood gushing from her wound. "In due time Princess. In due time," said Saura before disappearing in a cloud of smoke.
"Mama, Mama, are you okay?" cried her young son. "Curse him," growled Kagome under her throat, furious that her enemy had slipped through her fingers. "Lady Kagome, you're wounded. Please try and calm down or you'll make the wound even worse," said Miroku, staying a safe distance away. "It will heal so worry nothing of it," said Kagome, using her free hand to comfort her surrogate son that was crying. "Well how about we just stay here tonight seeing as the sun is setting anyways," said Inuyasha, picking Kagome up bridal style, resulting in Shippou jumping up on his shoulder. As soon as Kagome's wounds were bandaged, they all went to sleep.
Saura: Nyah, Nyah! I got away!
Kagome: Shut up Saura! I'll get you at the end of the story! Vegetasgirl91 will make sure of that!
Inuyasha: Yeah and I'll help her!
Kagome: You will not!
Inuyasha: Will too!
Kagome (sweetly): Inuyasha, (Inuyasha sweatdrops) SIT!
