InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ BROTHERS' WAR ❯ DEMON RISING ( Chapter 8 )

BROTHERS' WAR: DEMON RISING

Disclaimer: I do not own any of the Inu Yasha products. I am just a guy who is really into anime and just wanted to share my view on what might have happened before the series began. Please enjoy! As you can see, I'm tired of always writing the disclaimer but hey.

Recap: Inu Yasha awoke to find Kikyo and Kaede having some sort of argument but due to the after effects of his battle with Sesshomaru, he couldn't make out exactly what it was about. Once he had regained his senses, Kikyo helped him to walk outside so that she could have a talk with him in private. Once they were secluded from the villagers, Kikyo slowly baited Inu Yasha into agreeing to wish to become human, using the sacred jewel. Inu Yasha, however, started having doubts about this once Kikyo's presence had left him alone, while she went to retrieve the jewel.

INITIAL

Inu Yasha:

* Man! I wonder, will mother get angry or will she be happy? I know father would probably get mad at me for denouncing my demonic heritage, and for sure Sesshomaru, but what about mother?! … Shit! Sesshomaru! That dumbass of a brother was threatening to harm mother! Would he be so reckless as to hurt her or even scare her, knowing that either would enrage father? Hmm… He is a stubborn, dumb, eccentric, moronic, psychotic, childish … *

Just then there were minuscule feet hoping on Inu Yasha's shoulders. Inu Yasha tilted his gaze towards his left shoulder and saw a tiny demon tick. The tick was jumping and attempting to say something that seemed to be of great importance.

Tick:

"Ma'ser Inu Ya'sa … maath … tro … be … you … go ri … an … pro …"

Inu Yasha:

"What the hell are you talking about Mioga? I don't have a clue as to what you are trying to say. Why don't you calm down and say it in complete sentences instead of broken links?!"

Mioga:

"Ma'ser Inu …"

With that, being exhausted from his rapid attempts to reach Inu Yasha and convey something to him, Mioga collapsed and fell from Inu Yasha's shoulder. Mioga landed heavily against the rock and lay there motionless. Inu Yasha figured that this was just one of Mioga's usual antics and paid no heed to the tick.

Just then Kikyo arrived, out of breath, holding the sacred jewel in her grasp. She was so gleeful about Inu Yasha agreeing to become a complete human that she raced over and sat down beside Inu Yasha. Just as suddenly as she had sat down, she jumped but up rubbing her ass tenderly.

Suddenly it seemed that Mioga had regained enough of his strength to talk properly and stand.

Mioga:

"Mmmm… That sure was tasty! Oh! Master Inu Yasha! You must go to your mother quickly! There's been a rumor of an impending attack upon your village and so your mother asked me to keep you away. I tried to find your father but I had no luck! That's why I came to you, as soon as I picked up on your scent! You must hurry! Please master Inu Yasha! Please!"

Inu Yasha:

~ Horror struck ~ "What?! What the hell are you talking about? Who would be stupid enough to …"

Inu Yasha thought of what Sesshomaru had said before Inu Yasha was knocked out.

* I WILL KILL THAT BITCH OF A MOTHER OF YOURS! WHAT CAN YOU DO?! I WILL TEACH YOU TO FEAR ME AS WELL STUPID HANYOU! *

Suddenly something from within him moved ever so slightly. ~ BA-DA ~ It caused a ripple in the air which was felt by every living thing within a 50 yard radius. Like a heart beat, but only once. Kikyo was shocked, as was Mioga. Neither knew what that was and neither knew what was happening, but both knew that some demon was near, and it was strong! Both of them started looking around in a frantic state but they could see nothing and sense nothing more.

Kikyo:

* This is not good! What ever that was, it was strong and evil! If it comes here, I don't know if I will be able to overcome that! And if Inu Yasha changes to a human, he might just be killed off, though he probably wouldn't stand a chance against this beast even as he is now! *

Mioga:

* No! No! No! This is not good! Not good at all! We must get back to the village soon or else it might be too late! We can't afford to waste time fighting with something this strong while there's a chance that master Inu Yasha's village might be attacked! This is definitely not good! *

Inu Yasha:

~ In a calm, collected voice ~ "Mioga. Can you show me how to get to my mother? I was told by father that I would only be able to get back if I learned to utilize my demonic powers. So how do you propose that I get back if I haven't learned to use them completely yet?!" ~ Anger rising in his tone ~

Mioga:

"Well, that is somewhat true, but I can show you the path. The only problem is that if you can't use your demon speed then it will take 3 days to reach it, and by then it might be too late!"

~ BA-DA ~ The intensity of the essence of the demon was greater! It sent a shiver down Mioga's spine, which wasn't saying much, but it also gave goose bumps to Kikyo. Both were staring around, Mioga closer to Inu Yasha, and Kikyo with her bow raised and cocked with an arrow ready to split into the flesh of what ever it was.

Inu Yasha:

~ Patience wearing thin ~ "What the hell are you two doing? Mioga direct me in the direction to go! Kikyo, you stay here and watch over your village! If what Mioga said is true, then what ever is attacking my village might come after yours!"

Kikyo:

"Aye Inu Yasha, but ye be needing my help! There is something near us even now! And it is stronger than most of the demons I have sensed before! Much stronger than that bird demon we fought together! If I let ye go alone it might attack and ye struggled with that bird demon so this would be out of yer grasp! Ye be needing help! I be a high priestess after all!"

Mioga:

"Hmm… She has a valid point master Inu Yasha! You did say you haven't learned to use your full demon powers yet so it will be helpful to have a high priestess along! Definitely! And the demon near us is quite strong! She will surely be a great asset to our needs!"

Inu Yasha:

"I don't care! Just get me to my mother! And what the hell are you two talking about some demon being near by? I don't sense anything!"

Kikyo:

"What do ye mean, Inu Yasha? How can ye not sense it? Are yer abilities that low?"

Mioga:

"Hmm… It is possible, since he did come here to train on how to use his powers. But this one is quite big! Even a human should be able to sense it, even if it's just a slight tingle!"

Inu Yasha:
~ Out of patience ~ "What the hell are you two babbling about?! Stop wasting my time and get me to my mother. NOW!"

With that, both Mioga and Kikyo stared at each other with an awe-struck expression. Both seemed to be thinking the same thing: * Is he really that weak? * Yet now it seemed that Inu Yasha didn't want to waste any more time talking and to be truthful, it would do no good to do so. Every second held ever pressing danger to the village! Mioga started to guide Inu Yasha on the path and Kikyo travelled along with them, after gathering some herbs, bandages, more arrows, and that kitana the boy had had with him. Kikyo held the herbs and bandages in a sack, and her bow and arrows around her neck and back. Inu Yasha slid the sheath into his sash, so that the hilt of the sword was just above the sash, yet tight enough to hold the kitana and sheath in place.

Well that's another chapter done! Finally! ^ _^ I wanted to update my Inu Yasha fanfic since it's been a long time since I have done so. I could have kept writing more but think this is a good stopping point for now. This is the first chapter of a few that will parts of the Demon Rising part/saga of Brother's War. Demon Rising is going to be one that will lead into the action sequence and the darker side of the anime, as I think that in the anime, least the English dubbed version, Inu Yasha doesn't show his full demonic abilities! And of course the attitude that goes with it. So please enjoy. I promise to try to spice it up with some thriller herbs, some tragedy water, and maybe some gruesome action! Hey it's rated R and now the reason can be seen, well soon from now, haha. Hope all enjoyed the series so far! Please let me know what you all think!! I am getting more reviews for my DOA fanfic on fanfiction.net, more than Inu on both fanfiction.net and mediaminer.org, and so I feel the urge to do those chapters first. Feedback gets results!! Well anyways, ^_^ Peace!!
