InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ A Flame in the Dark ❯ Inuyasha shows up. Finally! ( Chapter 9 )

Pari: **dressing**

Miroku: **spying** (What else?)

Inuyasha: Would you quit spying on her?

Pari: **jumps and turns around**

**Inu-gang sees she has Sesshomaru's stuff**

Inuyasha: What the? Why are you wearing Sesshomaru's clothes?

Pari: No reason…

**screaming heard in background**

Sesshomaru: **stomps up in only yellow sash** Where is Pari? I know she has my clothes.

Pari, Kagome, and Sango: **nose bleed**

Pari: **looks up to sky and whispers** Thank you.

Sesshomaru: I want my clothes right…

**ground rumbling**

Kagome: EARTHQUAKE!!!!

Inuyasha: **looks behind** Nope. Sesshomaru fan-girls.

Sesshomaru: **looks behind** **pales** **runs for dear life**

Fan-girls: SESSHOMARU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

**everyone watches girls chase Sesshomaru**

Pari: Oh well. **grabs Sesshy's fluffy boa and smells** Sweet heaven.

Disclaimer: Inuyasha: Uh…Yeah. **reads cue card** Apparently Pari passed out in Sesshomaru's clothes after smelling his boa. She wanted you to know she doesn't own me. Can I go now? I want to see the girls torture Fluffy-sama.

Kagome: Fine. **slaps Pari to wake her up but nothing happens** **sighs** So much for that theory.

Inuyasha and Koga stopped out in front of the barrier. Koga dropped Miroku as Inuyasha let Kagome and Sango off his back. Shippo perched himself on Kagome's shoulder.

"Are you sure wolf?" Inuyasha asked.

"Yeah, mutt-face," Koga said.

All stepped up to the barrier and passed through. Inuyasha began sniffing. He smelt Kirara's blood and her fear. Sesshomaru was close to her.

"This way," Inuyasha said and led the group through the halls to the dinning hall.

Sesshomaru watched his half-brother and his group walk in with the wolf. Kai stood.

"Who are you?" he asked.

"It's all right, Kai-sama. Inuyasha here is a friend of Kirara's. I brought him here to help," Koga said.

"He's also my half-brother," Sesshomaru muttered to Kai.

Kai nodded. Sango and Kagome hadn't wasted anytime moving towards Kirara. Both sat to either side of her and Sesshomaru remained behind her.

"Kirara? You okay?" Sango asked.

Kirara shook her head.

"She's been through a lot for even a demon to handle. And now she can't even rest," Sesshomaru said.

"Why not?" Sango asked.

"Because the thing after her can reach her in her dreams," Sesshomaru said.

"How so?" Miroku asked.

Sesshomaru shrugged, "It could be because he's Kuroi, the Kami of Darkness," he said as if it was an everyday thing.

Everyone gapped at him. Their faces returned to normal when a draft with an evil aura around it made its way into the dinning hall and swirled around Kirara. Sesshomaru's ki flared and he pulled Kirara into his chest with a growl. The draft left, leaving everyone with the shivers.

"What was that?" Kagome asked.

"Kuroi's doing," Sesshomaru said.

Kirara turned into Sesshomaru's embrace. Sango laid her head on Kirara's shoulder and stroked her head.

"It'll be okay Kirara. I'm sure of it," Sango whispered.

Kirara nodded but clutched Sesshomaru.

"Kirara hasn't spoken yet," Miroku observed.

Sesshomaru nodded, "I think she has partly withdrawn from us. She's too scared. If you had a demon's nose you'd know that. She reeks of fear."

Inuyasha made his way towards Kirara and Sesshomaru and sat down in front of them. Sesshomaru growled a little but noticed Kirara relaxed a little more now that Inuyasha was near her.

"So have you got a plan yet?" Inuyasha asked.

"No," Sesshomaru said, "I'm surprised you don't have one."

"Unfortunately this is a Kami. If it had been a demon I would've tracked him down already and hacked the bastard into little pieces for doing this to Kirara," Inuyasha said.

"If he had still been around," Sesshomaru said.

"So what do we do?" Kagome asked.

"Perhaps we should look around?" Miroku offered.

"I wouldn't suggest it," Kai said, "There have been killings. One included two groups of three partners searching my halls. They were torn into little pieces. It was the night this…Kami showed himself to Kirara in her room. It's dangerous out there."

"Then perhaps we should go together. Maybe we'll stand a chance," Kagome said, "Think about it. Inuyasha and the Tetsusaiga, Two Taiyoukai, Sango, Miroku and his wind tunnel, Koga with his speed and strength, my purifying powers, and Kirara. That should keep us safe, right?"

"Perhaps the miko is right. If we find this thing and defeat him we can leave and your fire neko will be safe," Kai said.

"Perhaps," Sesshomaru agreed. He felt Kirara shiver as another draft entered, "Fine."

Sesshomaru stood picking Kirara up bridal style. Inuyasha stood as well. The group gathered into a small huddle and exited the dinning hall. The evil aura flared letting everyone knows its displeasure.

"Maybe I should have thought this through a little more," Kagome whispered moving closer to Inuyasha.

Sesshomaru: **straddling Pari holding her wrists down with one hand** Hold still!

Pari: Get off! You're going to do something bad!

Sesshomaru: If you don't hold still I'm going to wink!

Pari: **stills** You wouldn't dare! You know I can't help but faint when you wink!

Sesshomaru: Then don't move.

Pari: But you're going to hurt me for taking your clothes and forgetting to lock the doors so the other Sesshomaru fangirls couldn't get in.

Sesshomaru: Stop moving and it won't hurt as bad.

Pari: **teary eyed** Please, Sesshomaru-sama. **pout face**

Sesshomaru: It's not going to work this time.

Pari: But…

Sesshomaru: Quiet! **raises claws**

**screaming in background**

Inuyasha: **jumps up losing hold of Ramen** **Ramen spills** Damn it! You think he'd give warnings before he tortures people!

Kagome: You think she's okay?

Inuyasha: Who Pari? Yeah. Sesshomaru's probable marking her as a slave or something. He does that every time when one of his fangirls forgets to lock the doors and the others chase him. He'll let her go in a week. Month at best.

Kagome: A month?

Inuyasha: Don't worry…

Sesshomaru: **dragging Pari out**

Pari: **has on skimpy French maids outfit** **a crescent moon clearly scared on right side of neck** I hate you.

Sesshomaru: I hate you what?

Pari: I hate you…master…**mutters**

Sesshomaru: **pats Pari's head** Good girl. Now faint. **winks**

Pari: Ohhh… **faints**

Sesshomaru: Better. Oh. Pari will update later. I'll make sure of it.

Inuyasha: **whispers to Kagome** Think it's time to worry.

Sesshomaru: I heard that. I also heard that Inuyasha fangirls are in the area and I don't think Pari locked the door yet. I wonder if I should tell them you're here.

Inuyasha: You wouldn't dare!

Sesshomaru: **evil grin** Want to bet on it, little brother?
