Chapter 4: A New Battle

By Tainted InuShemeeko

Inuyasha's ears twitched at the sound of a scream. He knew that scream all to well which caused fear to pulse through his veins.

"Kagome!"

Inuyasha became a red and white blur as he moved ahead of the others. He had to get there first he just had too.

`Just hang in there Kagome. I'm coming.'

***********************************************************

Kagome took a shaky step backwards. A queasy feeling over coming her once again, a deep dark aura started to surround her. A sinister voice seemed to come from the sky as it spoke to her. Well the voice seemed to be inside her head as more words appeared on the ground.

"The Fear On You Is Wonderful. It Is Good That You Fear Me, For I Am Going To Kill You."

It was then that Kagome noticed what seem to be like a cocoon attached to the ground. The dark aura was pulsing from it; the aura seemed to be pulling her toward the cocoon. Something dark and slimy crawled across Kagome's shoe, when she tried to pull away she found out that she couldn't move. She was paralyzed.

Dizziness swept over her, followed by a wave of nausea. The voice then seemed to be echoing within her head.

`Relax Kagome, the more you fight me the more painful it will become.'

Weightlessness over came Kagome's body. She had experienced this once before. He was stealing her soul from her. One thought ran through her mind as the dark blue goo inched its way up her body.

`Inuyasha, Inuyasha.'

The voice inside her head seemed to become disgusted at the sound of Inuyasha's name. He then laughed at Kagome.

`Do you really think he will make it in time to save you? I shall have devoured you, soul and all before your mate and friends make it here. I will tell you that you did have a bright future until I killed it.'

No this couldn't be the end, she and Inuyasha were happy together they had even talked about starting a family one day. Gathering all her strength Kagome managed to scream once more.

"INUYASHA!"

*************************************************************** ******

Panic seized Inuyasha's heart as he heard Kagome scream his name and then nothing.

`Kagome.'

Just as Inuyasha entered the clearing a bright green light flashed passed him.

"What the hell was that?"

He then noticed that Kagome's lifeless body was being pulled closer to what looked like an overly large cocoon. Inuyasha then noticed the changing light blue coming from Kagome's body; it was eating her soul.

As Inuyasha got ready to charge with Tetsusaiga, he was shoved backwards by a blinding green light.

"What the hell was that just now? It was the same light I saw earlier."

The neon green light in front of Inuyasha then spoke to him.

"You just stay put till I tell you to move."

Inuyasha grinded his teeth as anger started to build within him.

"Just who the hell do you think you are? You're one of those spirit things aren't you?"

The little green light continued to move in front of him. It then sighed.

"Just let me free her, then you can have the creep. You'll end up killing them all."

A green dust fell from the creature as she dashed about Kagome and the slimy ooze. The ooze then started to turn a sky blue, just as it transformed into flowers, bees, and birds freeing Kagome form it's slimy grasp.

Once the sprite had freed Kagome she started to pull Kagome away from the cocoon. Inuyasha let out the breath he had been holding. The unnamed sprite then flew in front of Inuyasha and grabbed onto a strand of his slivery-white hair.

"Come on stupid. Just don't stand there. Destroy the cocoon before it opens. Hurry up."

Inuyasha glared at the green glowing sprite.

"If you'd let go of my hair maybe I would do something. Now let go."

The sprite soon found herself flying through the air only to bump into something soft yet hard, she blinked her bright eyes as she looked into a pair of slate colored eyes. Once she got her bearings, she took flight once more. Anger started to flare in the little sprite as she watched Inuyasha cradle Kagome head in his lap. However she continued to hover above the to of them, as Miroku and the other approached them.

There was no hiding the horrid shock in Miroku's body as he glanced at Kagome's motionless form.

"Inuyasha, Kagome's soul is no longer in her body."

A high pitched shriek was heard followed by a blinding light blue light as Kagome's soul struggled to free it's self from the ooze that was pulling it closer toward the strange glowing cocoon.

"Hey, Miroku where's that light coming from?"

Miroku shielded his eyes as he looked toward the strange light. The warm feeling that it was giving off toward him what it had just told Inuyasha.

"I believe that the light is coming from Kagome's soul. It's trying to free itself."

Inuyasha smirked.

"That's what I was thinking monk."

He then turned to face the cocoon.

"Hey, ugly it looks like you bit off more then you could chew. How about I help you cut a few pounds?"

At first Miroku and then others were afraid he was going to use Tetsusaiga. However the sword was never removed from it sheath as Inuyasha leapt into the air.

"Iron Reaver Soul Stealer!"

The goo broke apart as Inuyasha's claws slashed through it freeing Kagome's once trapped soul, which hurriedly soared back to it body, Inuyasha stood in front of the now pulsing cocoon. Sango's eyes widened as she looked at the spot where the cocoon was nestled.

"Inuyasha. Look at the ground the cocoon is sitting on doesn't it look familiar to you?"

Inuyasha looked over at Sango confused and anger showing in his golden eyes.

"Is there a point to all this Sango?"

Miroku yelled over to Inuyasha hoping the hanyou would get his point better.

"Inuyasha look at the spot you're standing on doesn't look familiar? We've all been here before."

Inuyasha ran what Miroku had just said through his head.

`Miroku is right this place does look familiar. Where…wait a minute this is where we defeated Naraku. Then that thing must be apart of Naraku.'

Miroku's voice broke though Inuyasha's thoughts.

"Inuyasha destroy the cocoon quickly, before it hatches."

"Good thinking Miroku. However you are to late to stop me."

The voice sounded like Naraku's only it seemed younger, more full of life. Which only served to piss Inuyasha off more.

"You tried to kill Kagome you bastard!"

Just as Inuyasha was about to charge the cocoon, a blast of dark energy tossed him backwards, causing him to land with a thump on the ground beside a now conscious Kagome.

"What the hell?"

A deep laughter was then heard as a tall naked form of a young man with flowing dark blue hair appeared before them. The slimy ooze from the cocoon hung from his hair and body. In one quick flick of his wrist the hide was ripped from a dead deer carcass, and wrapped itself around the strange new demon's waist.

Miroku's eyes widened as he stepped in front of Sango and Shippo, Kirara growled as she did the same. He then voiced a question that had been haunting him.

"Who are you?"

The demon like creature continued to laugh as it looked up at them with two burning maroon eyes.

"You may call me, Uraku. You shall be the one to be the key to your undoing."

The strange new demon known as Uraku smirked as he looked at Miroku.

"Perhaps I should re curse you with the wind tunnel. That way your wife and unborn children can watch you die."

His burning eyes then turned to look at Inuyasha. A grin suddenly appeared on Uraku's face.

"Better yet I'll just kill Kagome and her litter instead."

Inuyasha's widened at what he had just heard. Kagome was pregnant with his pups. Why didn't he know about it?

`Unless it just happened then I wouldn't know for another two days.'

Inuyasha was brought out of his thoughts at the sound of Kagome's scream. Just in time to see two icicles like rocks aiming straight for Kagome and him. Just when he thought the two of them were going to get impaled. When they all were suddenly surrounded by a glowing bright green light.

When the light faded Inuyasha saw that he, Shippo, Kirara, Sango, Miroku and a very unharmed Kagome were all standing inside of Inuyasha's Forest.

"How the hell did we all get here and what was that green light from?"
