Chapter 9: The Lord Of The Western Lands Vs The Salamander Pt 2
"LET'S FINISH THIS!" Natsu cried, and with that, he charged at Sesshomaru with a battle cry. He threw a right hook, to which Sesshomaru dodged and threw a punch, in which Natsu blocked it and slammed is fist at the bottom of his jaw, sending him airborne, doing a few flips in the air. He quickly recovered and lashed out his fluff like a whip and wraps it around Natsu. However, natsu plants his feet firmly on the ground, grabs the fluff and spins Sesshomaru around and tosses him through several trees. "LORD SESSHOMARU!" Jaken cried in agony, he was shocked at how Natsu was beating Sesshomaru. Sesshomaru then recovers and blasts him self from the pile of trees and his eyes were glowing red. "THIS SESSHOMARU. WILL NOT LOSE. TO A HUMAN!" Sesshomaru roared in anger.
"Bring it on." Natsu taunted with a feral grin. Sesshomaru dashed towards Natsu at blitzing speed. His claws began to glow light green, he rears his hand back and throws a claw strike at natsu. To his surprise, Natsu dodged it and throws a flaming right uppercut to the chin and a flaming left hook to the temple. Sesshomaru quickly regained his posture and threw a straight punch aiming for Natsu's face, natsu evades the punch, comes from behind him and delivers a roundhouse kick to the ribcage.
"What's happening guys? Natsu's beating Sesshomaru like it's nothing." Kagome said surprised. "It appears that sesshomaru's emotions left him wide open. That way natsu can easily predict his moves and counter." Miroku said observantly. "You're right, natsu seems empty headed, but when he fights his mind is like a steel trap." Sango noted. Sesshomaru then flies into the air and lashes out his whip at natsu, who dodged with ease, jumped up high in the air and ignites his fists in flames. "FIRE DRAGON'S IRON FIST!" He bellowed as he threw a blazing left hook aiming for Sesshomaru's head, who blocked it and Natsu knees him in his solar plexus and slams him to the ground with a flaming hammer fist.
"Woah, nice hit." Shippo said in awe. "Natsu's doing what he does best." Happy said confidently. "Looks like we've got the strongest member of our group." Shippo commented. "THE HELL'S THAT SUPPOSE TO MEAN?!" Inuyasha roared while shaking his in anger, Kagome giggled at the sight and turns back to see Natsu's fight with Sesshomaru. "Natsu…thank you for being our friend." She thought with a smile. Natsu puts his hands together, lights them on fire, and forms a large fireball. "FIRE DRAGON'S BRILLIANT FLAME!" Natsu roared as he threw down the massive fireball at sesshomaru, which burned lots of trees, and who easily evaded it. "That was close, I would've been finished if that attack connected." Sesshomaru thought observantly. Natsu came falling down, ignites his right foot in flames, and throws a powerful sidekick aiming for Sesshomaru's head, who easily blocked with his forearm. Natsu then delivers a spinning roundhouse kick to Sesshomaru's head, sending him skidding back.
"H-How can a mere human overpower Lord Sesshomaru?!" Jaken thought in shock. "No, h-he's not human, he's a monster." He finished with an internal growl. Natsu and Sesshomaru then began to throw a flurry of punches and kicks at each other while blocking them at the same time. Sesshomaru finishes it with a straight punch, to which natsu blocked, stood on one hand, and delivered a mule kick to Sesshomaru's chest, making him skid back. Natsu then appeared in front of him in a blink of an eye and delivers a right hook to his jaw, a left hook to his temple, and a roundhouse kick to his head, sending him flying. He managed to quickly recover and gave natsu a cold glare.
"So, ya give up?" Natsu taunted with a menacing grin, Sesshomaru let out a small growl in response. "This Sesshomaru's not finished yet." He replied codly, his eyes once again glowed red, his irises became blue,a nd a magenta colored aura surrounded him. He then flew into the air and as soon as he landed, dust began to blow at natsu's face, making him put his arms up in an x for protection. As the dust cleared up, Sesshomaru was now a giant dog with white fur, red jagged stripes on his cheeks, red eyes, and razor sharp claws and bared fangs, he began growling and did a demonic like bark trying to intimidate nastu, but was unfazed. "Man, you're one ugly dog." Natsu commented with a smirk, Sesshomaru let out a trembling roar in response and charged towards natsu.
"NATSU! WATCH OUT!" The others shouted in worry. Sesshomaru attempted to stomp on natsu with his massive right paw, while natsu puts one arm over his head and stops the attack, but it appeared to the others he was struggling. "HAHAHA! FOOL! That's what happens when you heave the wrath of Lord Sesshomaru!" Jaken said arrogantly, but to his dismay, Natsu easily pushed Sesshomaru of of him like a ragdoll, making him tumble back. The others, except happy, were surprised at his strength. "All right ya three legged mutt! Let's play!' Natsu taunted with a wild grin, he then jumps in the air, rears his right left back, and lights it on fire. "FIRE DRAGON'S CLAW!" He shouts as he delivers a powerful side kick to his chest, sending him airborne. "Wow…natsu really is strong." Kagome said in awe. "NATSU'S AWESOME!" Shippo exclaimed in amazement. Natsu landed on the ground, jumped in the air again, lights his arms on fire and spins them in a circular wing like motion. "FIRE DRAGON'S WING ATTACK!" Natsu bellowed, slamming Sesshomaru to the ground and attempts to deliver a stomp, but was stopped by a paw swat. "NATSU!" Kagome and happy shouted in worry. Natsu quickly recovered and notices Sesshomaru dashing towards him, attempting to crush him with his massive powerful jaws.
"GET E'M LORD SESSHOMARU! BITE HIS LITTLE HEAD OFF! Jaken rooted, and before Sesshomaru could do so, he Notices natsu rearing his head back. "EAT THIS FLEA BITTEN BASTARD! FIRE DRAGON'S ROOOOOAAAARRRRRR!" He roared as he blew a massive, continuous stream of flames from his mouth, to Sesshomaru's, making him roar in pain. Natsu jumps in the air, cocks his fist back, and ignites it in flames. "FIRE DRAGON'S IRON FIST!" He screamed as he threw a powerful right hook to Sesshomaru's jaw, causing him to tumble back. Sesshomaru then got back up and intended to stomp natsu, whi side stepped and threw a skull shattering uppercut under his jaw, backing him tumble on his back. Natsu then grabs his tail, spins him around, and tosses him in the air like a ragdoll. Natsu then leaps in the air and engulfs his whole body with flames, and flies towards him at high speeds. "FIRE DRAGON'S SWORD HORN!" He howls as he delivers a devastating headbutt to Sesshomaru's back, sending him flying and landing into a nearby forest.
"LORD SESSHOMARU!" Jaken cired in agony as he ran after him. "Quick, let's follow them!" Inuyasha demanded, the others nodded in response and did as they were told. In the forest, Sesshomaru reverted back to his human form and slowly get back on his feet, he notices natsu in front of him and sees that his eyes were glowing bright orange red. "What is this boy." Sesshomaru thought in slight frustration, natsu then broke the silence. "So you're back in your human form, good, lets keep it that way." Natsu taunted with a feral grin, showing off his fangs, Sesshomaru then narrowed his eyes at him.
"Who are you?" Sesshomaru demanded, making natsu grin even wider. "I'm Natsu Dragneel, the salamander of fairy tail." He replied cooly, Sesshomaru's scowl deepened in response. "So I reckon you're the one who defeated Kagura." He assumed, making natsu's grin falter. "Yeah, what of it?" he questioned rudely. "How were you able to overpower Kagura's wind with your flames?" Sesshomaru demanded, making Natsu once again grin.
"My fire ain't normal fire, it can burn anything in its path." He replied with a smirk, showing off his fang. "Hmm…that explains how he broke through Tokijins barrier, he blasted the fire from his elbow, to propel him forward, increasing the power of his punch." Sesshomaru thought observantly, Natsu once again broke the silence. "How the hell did figure that I beaten that bitch's ass?" natsu asked in a low voice.
"I saw her lying on the ground unconscious in the meadow." Sesshomaru answered. "So, are we gonna finish this fight or what?" Natsu asked getting impatient, Sesshomaru growls in response and dashes towards him at high speeds. "This Sesshomaru will truly defeat you!" He shouted while light green light appeared on Sesshomaru's fist. As soon as the others arrive, the saw Sesshomaru about to deliver a killer blow.
"NATSU! GET OUT OF THE WAY, THAT ATTACK WILL POISON YOU!" Kagome warned. Sesshomaru throws a straight punch, attemting to strike Natsu's head and blind him. But Natsu ducked and slammed his fist to Sesshomaru's gut. "PLAY TIME'S OVER MUTT! FLAME LOTUS: FIRE DRAGONS: FIST!" He howled as he repeatedly stroke Sesshomaru with a flurry of fast and devastating punches, which kept connecting with his face and body while causing numerous explosions. "THIS IS FOR TREATING YOUR OWN BROTHER LIKE SHIT! AND FOR PICKING ON KAGOME AND THE OTHERS!" Natsu roars in anger, he then delivered a skull shattering uppercut to his jaw, sending him airborne and landing on the ground with a loud thud. Natsu lets out a roar as flames erupted from his body, making the others cover their ears and backing up from the intense heat. Natsu then dashed towards Sesshomaru and screams while he continues the brutal assault. Soon his fists became blurs and the explosions increased in size in power. Then he rears his arm back, ignites it in fire and lightinng, the others, except happy, stared at this in shock.
"What is this?" Miroku asked in shock. "It's lighting flame dragon mode." Happy trailed off as the others turned to him in surprise. "One time he ate Laxus's lighting and can activate that form whenever he wants, making his magic power increase, along with the strength of his attacks, and his speed." Happy finished. "Natsu, you continue to amaze us." Sango thought with a smile, Natsu then was ready to deliver the final, killing blow.
"TIME TO FIFNISH THIS! LIGHTING FIRE DRAGON'S FIRING HAMMER!" Natsu screamed at the top of his voice as he delivers a devastating hammer fist to Sesshomaru's face, causing a huge explosion and sending flying through several trees and leaves him under a pile. Natsu then rears his head back.
"I'M NOT THROUGH WITH YOU YET! LIGHTNING FIRE DRAGON'S ROOOOOOAAAAAAAARRRRRRRR!" He roared as he blew a masive, continuous streams of flames mixed with lighting, heading towards Sesshomaru and blasting him, causing an enormous explosion that blew the others away and making him scream in pain along the process. As soon he was done and the dust cleared up, nearly half the forest was scorched, burned, singed, and was crackling with lightning, along with the trees, bushes and grass. And Sesshomaru lying to the ground unconscious, severely burned, bruised, battered, while his body was crackling with lightning. Natsu exhaled deeply, walking up to Sesshomaru's unconscious body and said. "Not such a big shot now, are ya?"
"YOU MONSTER! THIS IS FOR HARMING LORD SESSHOMARU!" Jaken roared angrily while blasting fire from his two headed staff straight towards Natsu. To his surprise, he consumed the flames and gave him a wild grin. "Thanks for the meal toad, now it's your turn. Natsu said menacingly, Jaken stared at him while trembling in fear, he looked into his onyx eyes, his pupils were slitted, he looked like a beats, a demon, no, like a…"DRAGON!" Jaken exclaimed before getting a solid front kick to the face, being sent flying towards the horizon.
"That'll teach ya not to mess with me." Natsu said with a growl, Natsu turns around to notice that Sesshomaru was no longer there. "Huh? Where the hell did he go?" Natsu said while looking around.
"NATSU!" A familiar voice shouted, he turned around to see happy flying into his chest, while Inuyasha, Kagome and the rest of the group followed behind.
"Hey guys, how's it go-"Before Natsu could finish, he was interrupted by a hug from Kagome, she then looked up to him and he noticed her concerned facial expression.
"Natsu…are you okay?" Kagome asked softly, earning a toothy grin from Natsu.
"It takes way more than that to get rid of me." He replied, earning a sweet smile from Kagome.
"I'm glad…" She whispered, putting him into a tighter embrace, the others watched this and Inuyasha couldn't help but feel a little jealous. "That bastard." He thought with an internal growl.
"YOU LIIIIIIIIIKE HIM!" Happy teased with his paws over his mouth. Kagome lightly blushed in response.
"Happy, don't go getting the wrong idea." She said sweetly, she lets go and notices some cuts on Natsu's legs, arms and chest. "You're hurt!" Kagome gasped. Natsu blinked in confusion before noticing the cuts, slightly wincing in pain while she disinfected them. "Don't ya worry Kagome, these cuts are nothin'." Natsu said with a toothy grin. "But…"
"It's okay Kagome, Natsu's been through worse conditions than this." Happy said reassuringly, making Kagome smile warmly in response. "If you say so happy." Kagome said while gently patting her head. She noticed Shippo quickly running to his side. "NATSU, YOU WERE AWESOME! YOU KICKED SOME SERIOUS BUTT BACK THERE!" Shippo exclaimed in amazement. "Yeah, but that guy was pretty tough though." Natsu replied while ruffling his hair.
"I must say natsu, it's quite impressive that you've beaten Sesshomaru." Miroku commented. "Especially from that last attack you pulled off." Sango said with a smile.
"It was nothin' guys." Natsu said with a toothy grin. "But don't you think you went a little overboard?" Kagome questioned while pointing to the area where Natsu almost destroyed the forest. "I had to finish that asshiole off somehow." Natsu said with a wide grin, earning a giggle from Kagome.
"You're getting weirder and weirder by the second." Inuyasha commented. "Look whose talkin' dog breathe!" Natsu shot back, soon their foreheads pressed together while glaring at each other.
"What was that lizard freak?" Inuyasha growled.
"You heard me ya mangy mutt" Natsu snarled.
"You wanna go pinky?!" Inuyasha barked.
"LET'S GO!" Natsu exclaimed, delivering a roundhouse kick to inuyasha's head, sending him flying. Inuyasah quickly got up, dashed towards natsu, and throws a straight punch aiming for his face. Natsu side stepped and blocked the punch, then Inuyasha threw a left hook, to which Natsu dodged and threw a left uppercut to his chin and delivers a right hook to his temple, making him tumble back. Inuyasha recovered and swings his right fist at Natsu, who docked and delivers a knee strike under his jaw, and a headbutt to the nose. Inuyasha regained his posture and claw swiped with his right hand, which Natsu came behind him and throws a spinning hook kick to the head, making him tumble back. "Those two will never change will they?" Shippo asks with a sigh.
"Nope, and I highly doubt they would ever get along." Happy replied with a sigh.
"Oh nastu…" Kagome said softly with a light giggle as she watched the two tussling with each other. "I'LL SHOW YOU!" Inuyasha screamed while rearing his fist back. "BRING IT ON!" Natsu roared while cocking his fist back. The two charged at each other with battle cries, intending to strike.
