Chapter 5:The Battle rages & Kenmei Arrives

 

“Come when you're ready.” Said Sesshomaru. I charged forth and brought down my blade. He dodged with ease. I swung a few more times before he came at me with his own attacks. I was happy to see I hadn't become to out of practice. Soon I was pushed backwards and into defense. I twirled out of his last Parry and charged from below.

 

He easily got away but just barely. It went on like this we seemed to be evenly matched. He was even giving me tips and hints through our link. But sometimes he was just taunting me.

 

I managed to keep a level head and not go charging blindly. It went on forever it seemed but out in reality it had only been half an hour.

 

Suddenly I saw an opening in his defense on his right side. I faked right and went left. I got his sword out of his grasp and put my blade to his neck.

 

“Well met. Your skills precede you.” He said.

 

“Thank you glad you agree.” I backed off and retrieved his sword while keeping my eyes on him and held the hilt out to him.

 

“Care to try again?” I said innocently. Before I could even blink he got his sword back and we started to fight.

 

I parried, blocked, and attacked for three minutes before he suddenly used his demonic speed to throw my sword away from me and had me pinned on the wall at sword point.

 

”No fair! You cheated no powers.” I yelled at him.

 

”You never said we couldn't use powers.” He said calmly.

 

“We-well I'm saying it now no powers in any of our spars unless… unless agreed upon by both at the beginning of the fight. Agreed?”

 

“Agreed.” He said in his monotone voice.

 

Suddenly Jaken came bursting into the room and started yelling. ”Milord, milord there is a strange demoness out in the courtyard asking for an audience with you and the human.” He squawked.

 

”Escort her to the front hall and what is her name?” Sesshomaru said.

 

“She said her name was Kenmei milord.” Answered Jaken.

 

”You are excused tell Lady Kenmei we shall be there shortly.” Said Sesshomaru. And with that Jaken left.

 

Sesshomaru then started through another door to a room that contained a small basin of water and some towels. He grabbed a towel then threw one to me. I wiped my brow of the sweat that had accumulated while he splashed some water to his face then dried.

 

Other than that not a hair was out of place as usual. But I was slightly sweating and was a bit thirsty. So I splashed my face then wiped my face, while calming my pulse. When I did that I tried to make myself presentable.

 

We left the room and walked out the dojo doors. We walked to the large doors that lead to the front hallway to a large intricately crafted door. We went through that and I saw Kenmei sitting on the other side waiting patiently on one of the many cushions.

 

“I have some news on the powers and abilities you two will have and on the draw backs. Some you will have probably already figured out and others that will soon yet come.” She started slowly.

 

“Oh Lady Kenmei please tell us all you have found out.” I said. Sesshomaru nodded as to continue.
