The Weird Swords

Raye:SesshyFan: Alright, here's chapter four. Sorry it took so long to put it up even though I already completed it and it's on A Single Spark and FF.net. I got a great beta reader, Seren1tystar01, and she did a fantastic job. I did edit some stuff when I read over it since my brain goes, "Ahhhhh! Change it now!" Not saying she didn't do a bad job, I just changed some grammar areas myself as well as adding a word.

Disclaimer: Err........honestly, is there anything that I own? Besides Lucifer, Mina and the plot? Well xx there’s this story, yeah but.....err........Oo is there? X-x nope......well, carry on xD

The Weird Swords

Chapter Four - Demon Day

Kagome was about to get up when she saw a flower where her backpack was. ‘Oh! I picked this with Rin,’ she thought to herself while picking it up and looking at it. A smile appeared on her mouth, ‘It’s so beautiful.’ Lifting her right hand’s pointer finger and thumb, she rubbed one of the petals in between them, like Sesshoumaru had done with her hair. ‘It’s soft, almost like Sesshoumaru’s, but thicker.’ Since her skirt had no pockets, or anywhere else on her school uniform, she put it in one of the small pockets in her backpack, making sure that the velcro kept it closed while the petals were sticking out so it would get sun. ‘I need to get one of those tubes. I think I will get one when I go home later on tonight.’

“Let’s go Kagome!” The others waited for her while she got up, slinging her backpack over her shoulders and walking toward them. “About time.” Inuyasha led the way through the forest with Kagome beside him, Shippou on her shoulder and Miroku in front of Sango.

“Inuyasha, how are you going to fight without Tetsusaiga?”

“Just like all the other times I did.”

“We’ll help you.”

Kagome sensed a presence up ahead, and it had a jewel shard! “Inuyasha, there’s one up ahead!”

Inuyasha looked at her and then ahead, his smirk now showing, “Alright!”

“It’s coming fast.”

On cue, the demon went toward them in an instant, its fangs and claws out to attack them. Inuyasha leaped from the ground, “Iron Reaver Soul Stealer!” Blades of yellow came from his claws, attacking the demon, only managing to make it mad. A snarl escaped its lips when Hiraikotsu came in contact with its head. “Kagome, where is it?!” Inuyasha asked while he went toward the legs and Kagome searched for it.

“It’s in the left arm!”

Inuyasha smirked while he pushed off of the demon’s leg to go in the air, “Alright buddy, you’re-” Amber eyes widened while a grunt went through his lips. The demon’s claws had embedded themselves in his right shoulder. “You’ll.......you’ll pay for that.” An arrow wisped by, hitting the demon’s arm, which made the demon pull away from Inuyasha’s shoulder, to try and get the arrow out, only to get burned. “Are you okay Inuyasha?!” Kirara went toward Inuyasha, guarding him with her fangs bared, while she growled at the demon.

“I’m.....fine.” Inuyasha hissed while he dug his own claws into the wound, “Now, you’re going to pay!” Kirara lunged for the demon, to create a distraction, while Inuyasha went toward the left arm, “Blades of Blood!” A horrible scream escaped from the demon while the red blades hit his arm, but, that didn’t seem to work.

“Hiraikotsu!” The boomerang went toward the demon’s neck, which made the neck snap a bit which earned another scream from the demon. Sango caught Hiraikotsu when it came back to her while Miroku sent his o-fuda’s at the demon’s chest, crackling when it landed on the mark. Another arrow wisped in the air, embedding itself into the left arm this time while Inuyasha swiped it with his claws once again, the jewel finally coming out.

Kirara went for the kill as she saw the demon going straight toward Inuyasha, her fangs digging through the muscles and bone, tugging it to the left a bit, which made the demon give out one final scream of pain before it fell to its death. Kagome ran toward the shard and picked it up, its structure now shining pink.

“Alright, we have another one! How much do we have left Kagome?” Kagome pulled out the necklace that held the jewel, “Just.......six more Inuyasha.” A groan escaped from the half-breed, “Great.....”

Sango walked up to them, Kirara following in her small form, “If we keep fighting like that, I’m sure we’ll be done.”

“Yeah, we did a great job fighting together, even without Tetsusaiga.”

“Keh.” Inuyasha crossed his arms, his shoulder still bleeding, but not that much, since it healed a bit. “It would be better if I had it. That bastard doesn’t even know what Tetsusaiga can do yet! Well, besides the Wind Scar.”

“I’m sure he’ll find out.”

Kagome looked at the demon’s corpse, “You know, this is right in the middle of the pathway Inuyasha.”

“Do I look like I can turn demons into ash?”

Miroku smiled, “I can.” He threw five more o-fudas toward the demon, which crackled and lit the demon into flames, soon ash. “A little bit of wind would help.....”

“My foxfire can burn it into nothing.” Shippou walked up to it and released three balls of foxfire, which did the trick.

“House cleaning......heheheh, all you need is a dress with your bow Shippou.”

“Hey!”

The others chuckled, even Kagome. Things just never changed, which was a good thing. But....soon enough, it will. “Come on, let’s go.” Inuyasha started walking again while the others followed.

-------------------------------------------------

#Kami...I’m so bored.#

~Shut. Up!~

#Make me!#

While Tokijin was pissed, Tenseiga’s hilt started to crackle with blue sparks and shot toward Tetsusaiga-yet again. Tetsusaiga’s hilt was now burned.

#Oww.....#

~Heheheh.~

*That’ll teach you.*

‘Where is the nearest river?’

Sesshoumaru stopped, a massive headache shot through him like a train. ‘I haven’t slept the past few days.’

*Take a rest then.*

‘No.’

*Why not? You need to rest or lay down.*

#You might use your power again Tenseiga.#

*No I won’t.*

Rin, Jaken and Ah-Un looked at their lord, wondering why he had stopped. Ah-Un heard a noise to the right, their eyes studying it while their senses surveyed the area. Sesshoumaru, who had sensed it, looked slowly toward it, letting his aura out. Crackling energy of blue and yellow surrounded him, the creatures that were sensed were now gone. Rin and Jaken were in awe.

*I hate it when that toad looks like that*

~What do you mean looks? You don’t have-~

*-I can sense it.*

~Ah.~

“Lord Sesshoumaru?”

Sesshoumaru turned his head toward Rin, his gaze downward in question.

“Is it okay if we go see Kagome early?”

The demon lord sighed mentally, “I don’t know Rin. Let’s go.” Sesshoumaru started walking, the others following once again.

*You really should rest Sesshoumaru. It’s not good to reject the body.*

‘I’m fine.’

*You lying dog. Rest!* Sesshoumaru, getting tired of this, took Tenseiga out and threw it to the side. ‘You’re not......my mother.’

“Lord Sesshou-?”

“Come.” Sesshoumaru continued walking, like nothing happened. Rin looked at Tenseiga, “Lord Jaken, should we...?”

“No. It’s obvious he doesn’t want it.”

“But, he shouldn’t leave it.”

“Try telling him that Rin. Let’s go.” Ah-Un agreed, the left head nuzzled its forehead against her back to get her moving.

-------------------------------------------------

“Damnit. We only got one jewel shard today.”

“They could be anywhere Inuyasha. We just have to be patient.”

“Remind me again why it shattered once again?”

“I don’t really know, it just did.”

“Damnit! It would be easier if you can track them from a far away distance.”

Kagome stopped and looked at Inuyasha in shock, Miroku bumped into her while Sango almost bumped into him. “Eh, Kagome? What is the matter?” Kagome brought her head down, ‘I can’t believe he said that!’ Fists formed while her head came up slowly, an evil gleam now in her sapphire eyes, “Siiiiiiit!”

Wham!

“Why the hell did you do that?!”

“How dare you say that! You’re too focused on getting the jewel shards and not even thinking before you speak Inuyasha!”

Inuyasha got up, rubbing his hips, “Oh yeah? Maybe if you stopped lolly-gagging around the past two days with that bastard brother of mine, this would never have happened!”

“Could it be that I have manners? It was only right to give Sesshoumaru back Tenseiga, just like all the other times I got Tetsusaiga for you!”

“And it was right to keep seeing him aga-”

“Sit!”

Wham!

“Sit! Sit! Sit!!!!”

Wham!

Wham!

Wham!

“Agh!”

“I can’t believe you! I went there with Shippou so we could play with Rin because she has no other companions to do so! Is there a damn law that says I can’t?!”

A groan came from Inuyasha, “Yeah....there is....” He got up, his features not looking so great...”Me!”

“Kagome, I think Inuyasha is loosing it.”

“Must be because he’s jealous.” Miroku nodded while the three of them watched as Shippou hid behind Kagome’s neck.

“Ohhh, sooo, you’re the law? Well, tough luck Inuyasha. I can see whoever I want, whenever I want, because I have all the right’s to do it! You don’t own me!”

Inuyasha flexed his claws, like he was about to draw a gun while he let the dangerous side of him come. He felt his fangs lengthen while his eyes and vision became red. “Tough luck Kagome. You’re never going to him again!”

“What makes you think I will follow your orders?”

“You should, after all, you are taking one from him.”

“I am not. It was out of my own free will. Plus......he won’t go that low. He has dignity, and manners, unlike you Inuyasha.”

“Kagome, might I suggest that you should-”

“No. He needs to learn what’s right and what’s wrong. I’m not going to let him get away with it.”

“But, he’s in this stage, he’s-wait a moment, is it spring?”

“Eh.” Kagome blinked and looked at Shippou, well, tried to, and whispered, “Shippou, can you, you know-smell it?”

“Uh huh....why do you think I’m hiding? If he sees me, he might kill me.” His voice was like one talking with their nose closed. Kagome sweatdropped, ‘Great......just what I need and with me being mad, I bet it’s heightening it up.’

“Yes, it is Sango.”

“No wonder......calm down will you? Who knows what he’ll do-” Without saying another word, Inuyasha started walking toward them. The brown eyes of the demon slayer narrowed and got in front of Kagome. “Miroku.....go take Kagome somewhere safe. I’ll deal with him.”

“Are you sure Sango?”

“Yes! Now go!” She didn’t look over her shoulder when Miroku and Kagome went off while she and Kirara stayed. Kirara growled and transformed to her bigger form.

“Get out of my way Sango.”

“I don’t think so Inuyasha.” Sango tightened the grip on one of Hiraikotsu’s band she was holding, ready for any attack or movement from the half-breed. “Move out of the way!”

“I will not allow you to rape Kagome.”

“Rape?” A chuckle, which sounded evil, escaped his lips, “I bet she is willing for me to fuck her.”

‘He has lost it.’ Without warning, she let Hiraikotsu hit Inuyasha in the gut, making him fall backwards. “I’m sure she would wish someone better to think before they speak or act Inuyasha.” She stood there, Kirara by her side, while watching the half-breed skid backward across the ground, like a plow. A big plow.

Inuyasha chuckled, “Like who?”

“Lord Sesshoumaru.” Sango said it without hesitating or thinking, it just came out, but she knew that the demon lord wasn’t as rash as Inuyasha. “As much as I, or any other, hate to say it, it’s true.”

“True my ass.” He got up without stumbling, his claws flexing while his red eyes widened, “I will soon make sure you are out of my way and find her. She is mine. My miko and no one will stop me!”

‘It’s definitely mating season. This is kind of fun kicking his ass. He hasn’t attacked me yet.’ Her grip on Hiraikotsu was once again tightened, ready for anything. ‘I wonder what he is planning....’

Inuyasha didn’t nothing for two minutes. He moved in a blur to Sango and went past her, his head passing hers, while his right arm was drawn back, going to her gut. Luckily, Kirara was there and blocked his attack by pushing him forward, since that was the only way Sango wouldn’t be hurt by his claws.

Inuyasha chuckled while running to where Miroku, Shippou and Kagome went.

“Thank you Kirara. Let’s only hope that Miroku has taken Kagome far enough.” She petted Kirara’s head. “Let’s follow him.” Sango climbed onto Kirara’s back and both were in the air, looking for the half-breed or Miroku and Kagome.

-------------------------------------------------

Miroku and Kagome were getting as far away as possible from Inuyasha, who was coming fast. “Kagome, you must go on, I will try to fight off him when he comes.”

“No. You don’t need to. We can zig zag through the forest. That will make him take sharp turns.”

A sigh escaped from the monk, “Very well. Lead the way.” Kagome made a detour to the forest, making sure to take a sharp turn to make a zig zag. ‘Let’s just hope he won’t cut through after his first three times turning.’

“He just entered the forest Kagome. Remember that the blood of his father is running through his veins, as well as your-scent calling to him.”

“Then, we must keep trying.”

“Kagome......what do we do if he catches up?”

“Miroku will fight him, right Miro-”

“Nice try fools. I can go faster than ever before, and, zig zagging? Please, I knew the moment I took the second turn!” Inuyasha lunged toward Kagome but was blocked by a staff. “Run Kagome!” Miroku looked at Inuyasha, “I do not want to hurt you my friend, but, acting like this is something I will pass to see and make sure you will not harm Kagome.” Inuyasha growled, “Harm? She’ll enjoy it.” Claws came up to strike the monk, but were stopped by being burned with o-fudas.

“By the way you’re acting, she might just die.”

Inuyasha hissed, “Last time I heard, or knew, she still loves me!”

“You notice now? In this stage? I pity you Inuyasha.”

“Stop talking damnit!” With a lot of strength, Inuyasha’s right claw came down on Miroku’s left shoulder, blood splattered his face and claw, “This will teach you to interfere with me and what’s mine!” With a growl, he kicked the monk ahead, knocking him into a tree. Without wasting a second, Inuyasha followed Kagome’s scent while Sango came shortly after to see Miroku’s situation.

-------------------------------------------------

Kagome kept running, but not in a zig zag anymore, she went to the right. She was getting pretty tired, her thighs burning when they moved upward. ‘I have to stop, but if I do, who knows what will happen.’

“Kagome?”

“Yes Shippou?”

“I’m going to go where Miroku and Sango are. I can’t protect you when you get in trouble with Inuyasha.”

“Okay.” With that, Shippou hopped off Kagome’s shoulder and went into the forest, running on all fours since it was easier for him to run. ‘It’s a good thing he went. I don’t think he wants to see what will happen either.’

After a few minutes, her breath soon become short as she kept running but what really scared her was a voice.

“Kagome, you think you can outrun me?”

She winced and took a sharp turn to the right, which caught the half-breed off guard long enough for her to get ahead of him a few feet. ‘I must.....stop. Ah!’ Kagome fell forward into a clearing and stumbled by a shiny object. ‘Huh?’ Her gaze went to the object, widening when recognizing it. ‘Now....that’s not nice. He keeps leaving it behind.’ She crawled to it and picked it up. The hilt pulsed in her right palm again while she shifted into an indian style position.

*Oh, finally. Can you take me to my master?*

‘He left you again?’

*Yes......once again. Only, it wasn’t Jaken this time. He threw me-oh shit! That brother of his is coming!*

‘I know. He says-well, actually, it is-’

*I know what season it is.....god......egh......if I could shiver, I would.*

‘You think you can protect me?’

*Hahaha. You bet. Err.....need the user to do so. I have only one special attack-killing-but, Sesshoumaru only knows it.*

Kagome sighed, ‘Alright, barrier it is.’ It was a good thing she thought up of that, because right when the barrier of hers came up, Inuyasha came out of the forest. His crimson gaze caught the barrier, a ring of cruel laughter came from him, “My, my, Kagome. Playing hard to get?”

“Or you’re just-you know-playing dumb?”

A small, and clenched, growl came from him, like a cat’s. Suddenly, he shot toward the barrier and tried to break it with his claws, but, only burned himself.

*Hey, I have an idea.*

‘What is it?’

*Throw me to the left.*

‘Throw.......you to the left? Why?’

*You want him gone, right?*

‘What are you going to do?’

*Just throw me before we run out of time because you’re not powerful enough with the blood, and strength, inside of him!*

‘Alright, if you say so.’ With one good windup, thanks to P.E., she threw Tenseiga to the left, who flew straight through the air like an arrow. ‘Oops......that was a bit.....hard....’ Kagome looked back at Inuyasha, who wasn’t even tired, ‘Let’s just hope she’s right.’

-------------------------------------------------

“Lord Sesshoumaru, why did you throw Tenseiga away?”

Silence.........

“Lord Sesshoumaru?” Rin ran up to him, now walking alongside her fatherly figure and looked up at him. There was again no answer from him. Rin frowned and looked ahead, “Lord Sesshoumaru you shouldn’t have thrown away anything that is given to you out of affection.” Sesshoumaru stopped in his tracks, looking at Rin, his amber eyes slightly widened. ‘How does a mere human girl know what that is?’

#Coughfamilytaughthercough.#

~Good job captain obvious.~

#Thank you-hey, wait a minute.....I didn’t mean taught, I meant talked to her about it.#

~...............~

#................#

‘..................’

~.........you’re still captain obvious........~

Chst!

“Oh! It’s Tenseiga!” Rin ran toward it and tugged it out of the ground and went back to Sesshoumaru’s side, offering it to her. While he put Tenseiga back in it’s sheath-once again-he felt it pulse.

*Four Words: Kagome. Inuyasha. Season. Right.*

~#Oh shit..#~

Sesshoumaru clearly got the message. Turning to his right, he used his demon speed into the forest, leaving the others in question.

*He’s in that horrible form, the one that you battled once, and when Goshinki died.*

~That form is.....~

They knew that form was the worst to see Inuyasha in.

‘I’m surprised that you didn’t get stuck in any trees.’

*So was I.*

-------------------------------------------------

“By the time I break this, I’m going to-”

‘Don’t listen to him, don’t listen to him.’

“Heheh, I see it faltering.”

‘Not listening. Not listening. Focus! Agh!’ The barrier seemed to flicker, her sapphire eyes widening, ‘No! No, no, no, no! Stay up, stay up!’ Inuyasha laughed at her attempt to keep it up, “You wanted me Kagome, now, you don’t?”

Kagome glared at him, her gaze, and aura, only exciting him further, “Not like this! You’re like a mad dog!”

“Now, that hurt Kagome.”

“Good! You deserved it. How can I love you anyways?! You’ve always hurt me!”

“You lie.” Inuyasha’s jaw was clenched while his red eyes looked over her body, “I will soon change that thought on you.”

Kagome gasped and, without thinking, even though the barrier was going to falter, she ran to the left. “Get away from me!” She felt weight behind her while she fell to the ground. The weight now was heavier, her eyes widened.

“Finally.” Inuyasha nuzzled her neck with his nose and nipped it gently, “You’ll soon be mine. All mine.” With a growl, his claws came up to try and rip her clothing, only to be met with a blast of pure energy.

“You’ll soon be burned to crisp Inuyasha if you keep doing that. I have-ahh!” Kagome got up before he came back to her, but, failed once again. “Get off of me!”

-------------------------------------------------

A white blur passed in the trees, the creatures that were in their homes looked ahead, seeing no one, only sensing a powerful aura of the demon lord going fast.

*Inuyasha might have gotten her by now. Hurry!*

‘I’m going as fast as I can.’

A small branch’s tip sliced into his cheek, leaving a small cut on the bottom strip of his right cheek while his shoes landed on the thicker branches since he couldn’t keep using the demon speed.

“Sesshoumaru, what did I tell you? You must go faster!” The scene changes, showing Sesshoumaru’s and Inuyasha’s father training Sesshoumaru. The small version of Sesshoumaru is looking at the ground in shame. “I’m trying father but I can’t-”

“Try? You must go faster. You hear me Sesshoumaru? You must go faster.” The scene changes once again, to what seems like Sesshoumaru is arriving late to a room where a body is removed from the cave, while all the others look at him in disbelief while others look at him with pity. “What did I tell you Sesshoumaru? I told you to be fast.” The father’s gaze becomes soft while his voice is almost a whisper but stern, “You’ve missed your mother’s death Sesshoumaru.” Sesshoumaru’s eyes are now filled with tears while his father watches him, the two of them not paying any attention to those around them. “I-I didn’t mean to father.” A frustrated sound comes from the demon lord while he looks at his son, “We will continue with your practice then.”

‘I tried as hard I could and I never did it fast enough.’ Sesshoumaru’s eyes turned red, his strips now jagged while his hair became a bit shaggy ‘You want fast? I’ll give you fast!’ With a flex of his claws lengthening, ending the semi transformation, his foot landed on the next branch, his figure was almost nothing while speeding through the forest now.

*Holy.....*

#Only one explanation....#

~Yeah, you two keep interrupting.~

-------------------------------------------------

Another scream escaped from Inuyasha when he flew off into the ground once again, “Damnit!”

“You know, this is-hold on, why am I using that? Sit! Sit, sit, sit, sit!” While he was busy kissing the ground for the umpteenth time, she started running again. It was then, that she felt a power presence but, before she could think, Inuyasha flung himself into her once again, his claws digging into her arms while he pinned her down.

Kagome screamed from the pain since it was too painful to do anything else rather than lay there underneath him, facing up to him. “Finally.....you’ll soon scream my name.”

“You wish.”

Inuyasha flexed his right claw, while his left arm was now sprawled against her right wrist, “Let’s take off this skirt now.” His smirk and allowed his fangs to show while he moved it toward the source.”

-------------------------------------------------

The scream reached Sesshoumaru’s ears, which only urged him to go even faster.

*He’s like a damn freight-err......horse!*

#Yeah he is-#

~*Didn’t know you swung that way Tetsusaiga*~

#..............#

~Oh my god......~

*Heheh, why Tetsusaiga, what have you-*

#Ahhh shut up!#

-------------------------------------------------

“This is not how I wanted it to be!”

“Oh, so you do want me. Alright.” His claw pulled down her skirt fast, throwing it to the side, wanting to tear it, but that would waste his time to try and mate with her. Kagome winced while his claw went to her underwear, the only thing that was covering her sex. Closing her eyes, not wanting to see it happen, she tried to kick him away, only to fail.

“I’m not that easy to be pushed.” His voice purred while his claw hooked itself on the rim of the underwear. Kagome gasped in fear while she tried to struggle with her arms. “This is really fun.” A smirk appeared on his lips while he started to pull it down.

“You disgrace.” Half-breed and miko barely had anytime to think when glowing claws slashed Inuyasha on the side. All the strength and momentum of that attack sent the half-breed flying. Sesshoumaru’s eyes were still red when he watched the half-breed slide into the ground, once again. Kagome had gotten up and pulled back on her skirt once again, since it wasn’t thrown that far away while she looked at Sesshoumaru’s figure.

“You bastard. She’s mine!”

“Yours?” Sesshoumaru lifted his head and brought it back down, so it would tilt to the left, “Surely you should know that we do not force others to be our mates.”

“It’s surprising hearing that from you, dear brother.”

“And here I thought that you were smart. Heh. This just proves you aren’t.”

A growl escaped from the half-breed, but stopped when he started laughing, “So, your eyes are red. Are you loosing yourself to the scent too?”

“Oh no.....you see, you should pay more attention when I talk, but, I guess your brain isn’t registering anything right now. And, the reason why I’m in this form: to save her from your disgraceful self. How dare you call yourself a son of our father, you pathetic being.”

‘Ouch....’ Kagome stayed where she was, not wanting to know what would happen if she were to speak.

Inuyasha snarled, his claws flexing and lengthened, “Fine, I’ll kill you and when I’m done, I’ll finish what I started with her.” Inuyasha lunged toward his brother, but, since Sesshoumaru was faster, he dodged him, but, made sure to be in front of Kagome at all times.

“You’re protecting her!”

“From you.” Sesshoumaru’s right hand let out the whip of light, which hit Inuyasha on the left cheek, a shout of pain coming from him. Sesshoumaru and Inuyasha still had red eyes, but Sesshoumaru was still in control with his half-way demon self than Inuyasha. “But it’s you! You’re fucking protecting her!” Inuyasha had landed on the ground in a skid while Sesshoumaru looked at his brother in silence.

Kagome looked at Sesshoumaru, waiting for his answer.

Poison dripped from the demon lord’s right claw, the ground hissing when it melted it away. Finally, his voice came out in a hiss and a lower octave, “So what if I am?” His form was nothing until he dug his claws into Inuyasha’s right shoulder, “There’s no law against that, is there?” He dug more and more, the poison hissing when coming in contact with the half-breed's bone, melting it, “Is there?” His voice was now a shout when a wind source out of no where picked up his bangs and hair while he pushed the half-breed away.

His own form went backwards and landed on the ground while Inuyasha skidded across the ground, shouts of agony coming from him. “Sesshoumaru! Don’t hurt him-” The demon lord’s head turned toward the miko, his eyes narrowing, “It’s the only way to make him listen.”

“But, please-”

“He can heal faster in that stage he’s in.” Bloody eyes turned back to the half-breed, “Of course, that’s only going to make him cockier.”

Kagome sighed and sat down, “Fine.”

*Hey, Sesshoumaru, ever though of-oh I don’t know-using Tetsusaiga on him? It’ll knock him out.*

~So would I-~

*#No, you would only kill him.#*

~Right.....hahahaha!~

Before anyone of them said a word, or he did, he drew Tetsusaiga, who transformed immediately in his hand, its blade now being surrounding with yellow energy. Kagome gasped, ‘He’s going to use the Wind Scar!’ Before she could do anything, Sesshoumaru swiped Tetsusaiga down in a dip, the attack going straight to the half-breed.

“Fuck!” Inuyasha’s eyes turned amber and dodged one of the walls of energy, “What the hell was that for?!” His chest heaved while his claws tug into the ground like a scared puppy.

Kagome sighed in relief, ‘Good, he came to his senses.’

Sesshoumaru’s eyes once again become amber as well while he sheathed Tetsusaiga. “You were about to force the miko to be your mate.”

Inuyasha’s amber eyes widened, “What?”

“Mating season.”

“Oh.” Inuyasha’s ears dropped down while he looked at Kagome but, was interrupted by a shot of pain. Looking down, he saw the wound that Sesshoumaru’s claws had done to him while he lost it. ‘Holy shit.....’ With muffled groans, he got up and looked at Sesshoumaru, “Good thing you wounded me.”

“Amusing, yet, another waste of time.”

“Keh, like you do anything interesting.”

For once, Inuyasha had said something right. Kagome got up and went toward Sesshoumaru’s side, “Thank you for not killing him.” She ran toward Inuyasha, who was in a lot of pain. “Damnit! Did you really have to use that damned poison attack?”

Sesshoumaru smirked, “Only way to get you to listen.”

*I can heal it.*

~#‘What?’#~

*What? I’m offering. Come on, please? I want to see that damned look on his face! It would be so priceless!*

“Also, I can heal it, if you want me to.”

Inuyasha and Kagome looked at him in disbelief. “Wha-what?”

“You heard me correctly.”

“You have to heal it Inuyasha, your bone is melted.”

“How the hell do I know if he’s lying or not?”

“Inuyasha.” The calm voice of the demon lord brought both of their attention, “Since when have I lied?”

“Fine.” Inuyasha walked toward his brother and crossed his arms.

*Watch out everybody! Tenseiga is coming out!*

Sesshoumaru drew Tenseiga and did his usual arc with the sword. Inuyasha felt the bone take its solid shape once again, his jaw clenching in pain while the blood stopped as well as any other wound he had earned that day. Kagome was in awe when the elder brother helped the younger one, a smile appearing on her face.

“I guess we came at the wrong time?”

Kagome turned to the voice of Miroku and saw Sango, Shippou and Kirara. She gave them a smile, “No, actually, a good time.”

All four of them blinked.

“What?”

“Sesshoumaru healed Inuyasha.”

“Wow.” Miroku looked over at the brothers, who, now seemed to be arguing, “There they go again.” The others chuckled.

-------------------------------------------------

It was nighttime in Feudal Japan once again, the stars and moon shining in the dark sky while fireflies flew around various areas down below. Inuyasha was finally once again to himself, while the others relaxed by a river. Kagome was with Sesshoumaru, saying that she was only with him to see Rin, which wasn’t true at all. Kagome was sitting down on the side of the hill while her knees were up and her elbows resting themselves just below the kneecap, her hands holding her head up. Sesshoumaru was standing behind her, looking into the forest.

“You know Sesshoumaru. Even if the moon is beaten up with all those asteroids, it still shines brightly....” That sentence made him turn his head toward the moon. Indeed, it was shining brightly as ever. “That’s because it hasn’t entered the core of the moon, to completely destroy it.” Kagome took her head off her hands, looking at him, “I’ve never thought of that.”

His eyes closed while he turned his head a little bit to the right, a smirk appearing, “Hm. My father told me that.” Amber eyes once again opened themselves, “Reminds me of my mother.” Kagome blinked and turned herself so she would be facing him, her legs still in the same position as before, “How?”

“She was hit with illness and it dug its way to her core so she would die. I wasn’t fast enough to reach her when she was about to die to tell her goodbye.” Kagome swore she heard a falter in his voice, but, she didn’t want to push it any further.

“My father died by another person.” Sesshoumaru turned his head fully to her, seeing tears covering her eyes, “You never know when Kami takes away another life. It could be any time. It tore my mother apart. She didn’t speak to us for a week and my grandpa had to take care of us when she would be in her bed mourning.”

‘Why can’t I let it all go like her?’

*She’s not afraid to.....she’s-she’s trying to show you how. Trying to show you its okay to cry.*

Kagome sniffed and wiped her eyes on her left arm. She once again turned in her spot to face the other way and looked up at the moon, seeming to be in thought.

#Looove is iinnnn the air.......wait, what the fuck am I saying?#

~I don’t know....~

#Why do I always have to be the idiotic one?#

*Well, Tokijin is......well, the evil one and I’m the good one. You’re men, you’re supposed to be idiotic.*

~Don’t you just hate life? Hehehehehe.~

*Nice evil chuckle.*

~Do I get the part?~

*Yes, you do.*

~Bwahahaha. Ahem.....~

“Hey Sesshoumaru, if I were to die, would you bring me back with Tenseiga?”

*Awww......*

#You see, I was-#

~The writer actually made you say that.~

#Gah! You know what, fine!#

Sesshoumaru looked at Kagome, “I’m sure I would, after all, your group would miss you.”

*Wrong answer....good job for trying. Next contestant?*

Kagome got up and turned toward him, now walking to him and stopped three feet away, “Pretend the others aren’t here Sesshoumaru. I meant, would you bring me back with Tenseiga?”

“I do not understand why you’re asking me this mi-”

“Kagome please, call me Kagome. I’m really tired of being called that and you know my real name.”

“Alright, I do not understand why you’re asking me that Kagome.”

“Would you bring me back? Answer truthfully.”

Sesshoumaru looked at her, hard, wondering why she would ask something like that. “If-”

“No ifs Sesshoumaru.”

‘Complicated miko....’

*Lovedoesthattoyou I mean.....what?*

“Yes, I would bring you back.”

“Why?”

#Damn, she’s tough.#

~She just wants to know why, you idiot, just like all the other females.~

#And how do you know this?#

~I went with a couple.~

#And how is that? You broke me damnit!#

~No......I’m a bit different. You’re thinking of the other me.~

#You’re confusing me.......#

*Careful, Tetsusaiga can’t take too much info. Nehe.*

#Shut up......#

“Why? Why do you think I came to save you? Why do you think that I haven’t killed you yet? And, most of all, why am I here talking to you like I know everything about you? You don’t even know anything about me-”

“Bingo. Talk more-”

“No.” Sesshoumaru started walking into the forest while Kagome growled in an inhumanly manner, “There’s your problem Sesshoumaru! You don’t want to open up to anyone! Not even Rin or your brother! No one!”

“Enough with the yelling miko.”

“I can yell if I want to make a point! You just don’t bother to listen! Just like Inuyasha!” Her sapphire eyes flared with anger while her jaw was clenched. Her scent was now spicy while her aura was fiery.

“I listen, and I’ve listened enough.” Sesshoumaru started walking away.

“You liar.....” The words came in a harsh whisper while teeth clenched, “If you listened, you just don’t want to open to anyone because you’re afraid. So what?! Everyone has been afraid, even your parents!”

Sesshoumaru stopped and looked at her coldly, “Leave my parents out of this.”

“No. That’s what you want me to do. Well, guess what? It’s not going to happen. How does it feel for you not to get your way?”

“You like to push everything on.” He started walking toward her, Kagome kept going, “Do you enjoy saying hurtful things to others? Do you enjoy watching others crumble at your words? Do you?!”

“That’s enough shouting miko. I can hear you-perfectly.”

Kagome saw him coming close to her and she backed away, “You haven’t answered me.”

“Oh, I intend to, but, you’re backing away. Is that by fear?”

“No. It’s so I can keep this conversation going.”

“Oh, so you will shut up when I come close to you? Very well.....”

“What? No-” She saw him use his demon speed and jumped backward, only, it was the hill and-down she rolled. ‘He knew that was going to happen!’ Kagome rolled down the hill like a log until she stopped a couple feet from the base. ‘Well....that was fun. I haven’t done that since I was a kid.’ Lifting herself off from the ground, she wiped her clothes clean and glared up the hill.

Sesshoumaru was only looking at her, like an outsider, and turned to walk away. Kagome gave out a frustrated sound, “Yeah, you go and do whatever you do! You-you idiot! You stupid-no good idiot!” Tears pricked her eyes and went down her face. “You....you damn idiot.....” Turning sharply from the hill she walked away, going to the right so she would meet with the others.

-------------------------------------------------

“Ah, there you are Lord Sesshoumaru.”

“Let’s go.” Sesshoumaru kept walking while the others followed him. His voice had held something that wasn’t there before: Anger. Cold. And.....a little bit of sadness inside, but, that was quickly hid with anger.

-------------------------------------------------

‘I can’t believe him. I’ve tried to reason with him and he closes like a dog biting at its owner. Where’s a newspaper when you need one?’ Kagome’s imagination came up with an image of her standing over the true form of Sesshoumaru hitting him endlessly with a newspaper roll. That earned a giggle from her. ‘I should bring one someday so I can annoy him.’ Another image rolled through her head. The newspaper hitting his head whenever he was bad and every time he would catch it, it would burn to ash only Kagome would take out another from a secret stash from her backpack and hit him once again.

“Why, isn’t this a splendid night. I just had dinner, maybe there’s room for desert.”

‘Damn.......first Inuyasha now another?! What is it? Miko season?!’ An image rolled by once again in her mind, with the sign having the words saying it was made her sweatdrop. The demon came closer to her, looking like a Chinese dragon and a cross between a dragon, dragon. ‘Great......a dragon. I’m dead.’

“Now, if you be a good prey, I will let you live.”

“With what? Only one leg? No thanks, I’ll pass.”

“Oh no, not flesh, I meant hair.”

‘Ewww........hair? Hey.....payback-no Kagome. No time for being mean-but he has better-no! Agh!’

“My hair? You don’t want mine. It’s dirty. Not very good, nope.”

“It looks shiny.”

“I used slime.”

“Fine, flesh it is.”

‘Damnit! Where’s a loose stick? Or anything that looks to throw like a damn spear!’ Kagome looked around, seeing no twig, only leaves. ‘Oh sure, that would just add seasoning. This is what happens when you have a fight with that damn idiot!’ When she was shouting at herself, the demon went toward her, trying to attack her with its claws. Kagome barely had the time to dodge, since some of the claw’s tip scraped across her right arm.

“The smell of your blood is very......” Another deep sniff, “Intriguing.”

“Yeah? Well, congrats to you, but, this isn’t a free deal thank you. Bye!” Kagome took off, knowing that it would follow her, which was just what she wanted since she had sensed one nearby.

“You’re not going to get away that easy my sweet.” Fangs bared, muzzle bunched up on the top, the demon ran on the ground, his claws breaking up the ground like a bomb. Kagome kept on running, thankful that her legs weren’t going to hurt after a while. ‘At least I can tell my mom that I did a lot of exercise.

The demon lunged toward her, careful not to hit the trees, its giant claws ready to dig themselves in the skin while his weight carried him in the air. “I don’t think so.” Fire attacked the dragon, even though he was immune, this fire was more powerful, far more, and burned him. Kagome ran underneath, to what seemed, a huge, ginormous dragon! It was indeed ginormous. The dragon was taller than Inuyasha’s father in his true form. The shoulders would reach exactly at the dog demon’s head when standing casually, his head looking forward. His head was ten feet up while his horn was 10 feet in the sky.

‘Damn.......’

The color of it was beautiful as well! Black with red like it was mixed and smeared. The scales shone off the sunlight like black rocks while his wings looked like huge bat wings, the skin trimming them were round and black while the thinner skin was a dark brown. The eye of the dragon was red, glowing while beside the snout hole, what Chinese dragons had, long pieces of skin hung down, in full length, they were 20 feet long. It was like a real-life-scaled dragon!

The other dragon, very small and puny, backed away in fear. It came up to the other’s chest with it’s shoulder while the head met the middle of the neck of the other’s. If it were to fight, it would be pretty interesting, but, pointless.

The taller one, dipped its head down and brought it back up, his mouth letting its beautifully colored fire, with blues, oranges, yellows, purples and reds, into the sky. ‘And this is when pollution started.’ When he was done, his big, red eyes with black slits in them, gazed down at the smaller one, his deep voice booming into the area like a god.

“You have a great nerve going after this miko.”

“I was merely hungry.”

“Hmph.” The dragon tilted his head, his horns glistened more in the moon, “Hungry? You should eat the other demons that dare to become so violent and untrustworthy. Humans are innocent, but, greedy, however, this woman, this miko, is innocent not greedy. One such as her should be kept living, giving birth to young ones to fill the Earth with good, while evil gives birth as well. Both, needs the other to balance. Ying and Yang, otherwise, the Earth will fall to Yang’s hands or fall into Ying’s. I’m sure you don't want Yang’s control. It would create chaos. And only I and the other gods can destroy it. And we hate it when that happens.”

“Lucifer?”

The dragon chuckled and brought his neck down so he could look at her, his neck curving to do so. “We meet again, only....in this stage.” Red eyes roll to the right, narrowing, his features now stern. Bringing his head back into the sky, he looked down at the smaller one, “And, I do not like being in this form either.” Black smoke came out of his snout, proving his point, as well as helping.

“Yes, I will do so.”

“Good, tell the other dragons that. I’m sure that they would understand. They do control the other demons. If not, I’ll make sure they will myself, dragon or not.” Lucifer’s evil smile appeared on his muzzle, his fangs now. It still looked sexy in this form. He and Kagome watched the other dragon walk away. “You have to be more careful.” Lucifer shimmered down to his humanoid form, feeling better that he wasn’t so high up.

Kagome sighed, “I know.” Lucifer looked at her, like he was studying her. “Eh, what?”

“Nothing. Come on.” He signaled her with his left claw, “Let’s go and get you to your group-once again.” Kagome started following him, ‘I wonder what he meant when he talked to the other dragon. Dragons control all the other demons? Well, they are bigger and more powerful. Although......I have a bad feeling.’

-------------------------------------------------

A muzzle of a dragon went up and down while the owner of the muzzle runs to the area of the dragons to tell the message of the king, and creator, of demons. One of the guards sees him and nods at him, “They’re in the temple. Use your humanoid form.”

“I can’t. I am too young still.”

“Very well. Use the big door.” With a nod, he started walking into the valley of the dragons and right in the dead center was the temple. Not caring if anyone saw him, or trying to stop him, he headed toward the big door and went in. ‘Now......where is-oh yes. The door with the dragon acting like a table.’

“Hold up you! What do you think you’re doing?”

“I must get into the room of the high ones. I have a message from the king.”

The older man looked at him from the ground, studying him, “Are you lying?”

“You have my word as a dragon.”

“Very well.” He walked to the big doors, opening them without an effort, “Proceed.” The younger dragon went into the door, all the older ones looking at him while he went to the one in charge. Lying down, he bowed his head, the top of his muzzle touching the tile floor.

“Young one, what do you wish to speak?” The voice of the old one was gruff and deep.

“The high one of all, Lucifer Hellisque, has sent me to tell you that we must attack those younger ones who eat the humans that are innocent.”

“He told you this?”

“Yes.”

“Hmm.” The old’s man’s mustache tickled his lips and cheeks while the others around the table waited.

“I say we don’t. This is clearly unacceptable. What will everyone use for food if the innocents are alive? And how will we know if they are innocent or not?”

“Use your powers. We can read minds or, if you’re powerful enough, look into their heart.”

“Why would I want to waste my time with this? Lucifer is going mad-”

“He made you. He made all of the demons, just like his father’s and their father’s and ancestors before him. If he wants it done, it’s done. If you go against his word, he will kill you.”

“Yes, he did say that he would take of it himself if those do not do what he says.”

“There you go. So, Aridos, what is your decision? Are you going to go against his word? Or, are you going to help?”

“Fine.”

“I think he’s lying.”

“So do I.”

“Now, calm down, all of you. I bet every one of you all are thinking the same thing. I know I am, but I would rather live then die at Lucifer’s hands.”

“And least we’ll die honorably.”

“A waste. A big waste. What about all of your families? Just going to leave them?”

The room was quiet, “I thought so.” He looked at the younger dragon, “Thank you for coming and telling us. You may leave.” He waved an old hand at the younger dragon, “But, before you leave, you must be fed.”

“Thank you sir.” The younger dragon got up and followed the servant that led him to the eating area. “Ahh, may I have your name as well young one?”

“Verdoc”

“Ahhh, so you can do mind sending. Very good. Verdoc. Hoping you will help us?”

“But of course sir. I will never go against what Lucifer Hellisque says.”

“Good boy.”

-------------------------------------------------

“The meeting is over. We will go with Lucifer’s word. Anyone who wishes to go against Lucifer will know immediately. Now, go to your families and tell them the news.”

All the dragons went away while the old one walked to the throne. “Ahhh, Lucifer. I fear that Aridos will go against us.” Looking at the statue of the dragon king, he scratched his long, white beard with his right hand.

The statue seemed to come to life, its golden eyes now glowing with red while black smoke came out of his nostrils, “I see that. Give him a day and contact me with the changes. Good or bad.” With that, the dragon returned to its normal position as before, its magnificent wings arched up while his figure sat down on its haunches like a dog, his neck going back in a curve.
