The Demon Child Amaya

Chapter 3

Kagome smirks, ‘there is no way that child can defeat Inuyasha, now I have nothing to worry about.’

Amaya watches as Kagome smirks, ‘she thinks that I am going to lose, well she has another thing coming to her.’ Amaya walks towards where Inuyasha is, she walks passed Kagome, “Once I win the first thing I am going to do is make you take off the beads from Inuyasha, and if you don’t, don’t think I will not result to cutting off both of your arms to remove them,” Amaya smirks at Kagome’s shocked expression and then walks into the field where Inuyasha is waiting for her. “Okay Inuyasha, let’s get on with this, how about the first one to be pinned, is that okay with you?”

“Sounds good to me,” Inuyasha says as she stretches. “What about weapons?”

“Sure why not, I always wanted to fight against the famous Inuyasha and the famous Tetseiga when you are not holding back,” Amaya smiles, she then pulls out her dagger.

Inuyasha watches in amazement as the dagger begins to glow and then lengthens to a mini sword. “You ready to get started?”

Amaya swings her sword around testing its new length, she then turns sideways and places her left foot behind her and lowers her body pushing it forward into a fighting stance raising her sword so it blocks her body.

“Ready.”

Inuyasha pulls out Tetseiga, “Then let’s do it!” Inuyasha rushes forward Tetseiga raised.

Amaya watches Inuyasha charge at her, ‘This should prove to be interesting.’ Amaya leaps into the air dodging Inuyasha’s attack and flips to land behind him, she then charges forward. Inuyasha sees this and puts up Tetseiga to block the attack; both Inuyasha and Amaya stare at each other. “Not bad, but then again, I expect nothing less from you.” They push off each other and attack again, Amaya uses her grace that she was blessed with to dodge Inuyasha’s attacks and Inuyasha uses his fighting instincts to dodge Amaya’s attack.

“You’re not so bad yourself,” Inuyasha says. Amaya smiles and they attack each other again, their demon power swirls around them.

“Wow this is intense,” Miroku says.

“Yes, they both seem to be equal, but somehow I don’t think they are,” Sango says.

“Your right Sango, that’s because Inuyasha is far stronger then Aya, she is nothing but a child with wishful thinking that she can go up against and beat Inuyasha,” Kagome says matter of fact.

“I’m not so sure Kagome,” Sango says.

“What are you talking about Sango? Do you actually think that child, Aya, can defeat Inuyasha?” Kagome asks.

“You have to remember, she is from a different time, where she has fought against a demon far tougher then Naraku and she has lived. She has also been training with demons that are eight years stronger then we are now. Even though she is young she may be stronger because of the intense training she has been through,” Sango explained.

“She is still a child, and there for still to young to be strong enough to defeat Inuyasha,” Kagome crossed her arms over her chest.

Meanwhile Inuyasha and Amaya are still fighting, both charging at each other, their blades singing as they strike each other. Inuyasha raised Tetseiga and with all his might swings at Amaya; the blade swings and Amaya disappears. Inuyasha blinks, ‘what the hell?’

“Over here Inuyasha,” Amaya says. Confused Inuyasha looks to his right, and then his left then gasps. Amaya is standing on his blade smirking, “Very good Inuyasha, that would have taken off my head if I didn’t dodge it.” Amaya then runs down Inuyasha’s blade and strikes, cutting Inuyasha’s cheek.

Inuyasha hisses, “Not bad kid, who every taught you to fight is good.”

Amaya smiles, ‘ha ha, little does he know he is the one that taught me.’

Inuyasha and Amaya run at each other again, swords clashing until Inuyasha swings his sword downwards, Amaya raises her blade to block the attack but the power behind Inuyasha ended up knocking her sword out of her hands.
“Ha take that!” Inuyasha cheered.

“I am not defeated yet Inuyasha, you have yet to pin me,” Amaya smirks. ‘I can’t use my poison whip, that will lead them to suspicions I don’t want them having, I will have to rely on hand to hand combat or some of my elemental power hopefully I won’t have to go there.’

Inuyasha sheaths Tetseiga and charges at Aya claws ready, Amaya sees this and prepares her claws. Inuyasha and Amaya attack each other, both getting small cuts from each others claws. Inuyasha growls, ‘Just who is this kid? Her powers are amazing, but I also feel that she is holding back, but why? Her fighting is graceful but filled with passion, she is very unique.’

Amaya sees that Inuyasha is distracted and charges at him, she jumps over him and falls down kicking Inuyasha’s feet out from under him, making him fall down. Amaya grins and playfully jumps on Inuyasha chest she sits cross legs and crosses her arms over her chest. “I win,” She grins.

Inuyasha stares up at Aya in shock, ‘she took advantage of my distracted state.’ Inuyasha smiles not being able to help the feeling of pride swelling inside of him for some unknown reason, “Yes you did.” Inuyasha lifts Aya up as he stands and holds her in his arms, “You are very powerful Aya, and I am really impressed.”

Amaya couldn’t help but smile widely, “Well I practiced really hard, but.” Amaya’s smile disappeared and she then realized what she was doing, she jumps out of Inuyasha’s arms and straightens her Kimono, clearing her throat she looks up at Inuyasha, “Thank you for the compliment Inuyasha, you are also a great fighter, however you rely too much on luck, maybe if you want I can teach you a thing or two. Anyways, I won so I am now traveling with you all.” Amaya grabs Inuyasha’s hand and brings him over to the others, she stops and stares at them all. “I won so I am now going to be traveling with you all, now as I promised, Kagome remove the beads now.”

“What?” Inuyasha says.

“Inuyasha in my time you told me all about your adventures and about how she can sit you, I will not tolerate it. In my time you a friends with my parents and we are friends you always acted like a big brother,” Amaya lies, “And I will not stand here and watch this wench abuse you,” Amaya states.

“Oh I get it that’s why you seem to act like Inuyasha sometime, you and Inuyasha in your time are friends,” Miroku says.

“Yes, that is right. Now I am not going to repeat myself, remove it,” Amaya says.

Kagome crosses her arms over her chest, “No, it is for our protection.”

“No it’s not; Inuyasha stopped being a threat a long time ago. Those beads are suppose to be used for it Inuyasha is a danger to your life. You use the beads to control him, you sit him when he disagrees with you, or when he doesn’t do as you say or because you’re angry at something that he says or does. He is not your pet dog, he is a person, you are not his master, you are an immature snot- nosed, spoiled little girl that thinks that everything revolves around you, well here is a news flash, it doesn’t and I am not going let you abuse this power any longer, now you have one minute to remove them before I make you,” Amaya growls.

“You can’t do anything, Inuyasha will not let you harm me,” Kagome says smugly.

“You really think that don’t you?” Amaya smirks and turns to Inuyasha, “Inuyasha I have the power to free you, do you want to be freed.”

Inuyasha looks down at Aya, “Yes I want to be freed but-”

“Inuyasha you have to understand that the longer you have the beads on the greater risk she is to you, what would happen if she accidently says sit during a battle, she could also say it and make you hurt yourself more then what the beads already do, you could accidently fall on a sword, hit your head hard enough to do damage, she could say it while you are in water and you could drown. She may not do it on purpose but those are accidents that could happen, she is just a child that thinks she is an adult. Kaede did not give her those beads to abuse you like this, she gave them because she thought you would hurt Kagome and the other villagers. You no longer have to be on a leash, you can be free, and all you have to do is say so. I promise you I will not kill her because she needs to find the jewel shards but I will use force to get her to remove them, you just have to trust me. Please Inuyasha, you have been hurt too much already, don’t leave yourself in a situation that will hurt you.”

Inuyasha looks thoughtful, “I always had this thought that she would remove them on her own because she told me she loves me and that she trusts me, but she never did, I still have hope but.”

“But if she loved you then she would have removed them already,” Amaya finishes.

“Hey how dare you put Inuyasha against me!” Kagome yells.

“I am not, I am telling him the truth,” Amaya says never taking her eyes off of Inuyasha. “Inuyasha you have to decide now,” Amaya says.

Inuyasha looks between Kagome and Amaya, he then walks over to Kagome, “Kagome you say you love me is that true?”
Kagome’s eyes soften, “Yes Inuyasha, it is true.”

“Then will you please remove the beads, prove to me that you love me, I don’t need them anymore,” Inuyasha takes Kagome’s hands and looks at her with pleading eyes, “Please.”

“Oh Inuyasha, I can’t. What would happen if I can’t control you when you turn full demon?” Kagome says.

Inuyasha’s heart sank, ‘she won’t do it. Aya is right; she just wants to control me.’ Inuyasha drops Kagome’s hands, “Aya is right,” he turns around, “Okay Aya, please free me.”

“It would be my pleasure,” Aya walks up to Kagome. “Remove them.”

“No,” Kagome says.

“Very well you leave me no choice,” Amaya closes her eyes, and then her hands begin to glow. Kagome screams when vines shot up out of the ground binding her legs and arms and to wrap around her neck.

“What are you doing?” Kagome yells.

“I told you I would force you,” Amaya says.

“Inuyasha do something, she can’t do this to me!”

Inuyasha glares, “Yes she can.”

Amaya smiles, ‘Inuyasha will now be able to realize his full potential.’ Amaya then looks at Kagome, “Now are you going to do it or do I have to make you?”

“I am not going to remove them!” Kagome yells.

“Very well,” Amaya uses her power so the vines brings Kagome’s body over to Inuyasha she then makes the vines bring Kagome’s hands to the beads, the vines wrap Kagome’s hands around the beads and then seals them around and brings them up over Inuyasha’s head freeing Inuyasha of his curse. Amaya makes Kagome drop them into her hand and then releases her from the vines.

“You bitch! How dare you!” Kagome yells.

Amaya ignores her and turns to Inuyasha, “You are free now.” Amaya then walks to the fire pit and throws the beads in and then raises her hand and shots a fire ball out into the pit burning the beads.
Inuyasha watches Aya walk off with only one thought in mind, ‘I’m free!’
