Chapter 6: Brother against brother

 

Everyone in the palace was learning quickly to stay out of the young lord's path. Sesshoumaru nearly destroyed his family home in search of his brother.

 

The servants wisely held their tongues when talking about the inu-youkai's choice in mates. Of all the high royal demons and demonesses, there could have been at least one to have caught the interest of the future Western Lord.

 

But instead he lowered himself and mated with his no account half-brother, Inuyasha, and unofficial at that. To even get Inuyasha accepted as Sesshoumaru's mate, since he didn't hold status as a legitimate heir, the Great Dog demon would have to give his approval. Toga would want a perfect match for his oldest son, which meant mating to a female royal inu-youkai of pure-blood decent, who would be able to bear exceptionally strong pups.

 

As it stands now, Lord Sesshoumaru would cut down anyone saying anything scathing about his mate, who was currently no where to be found.

 

“Mm-my Lord?”

 

“What is it, Jaken?”

 

The toad demon was nervous. His master's golden eyes were spotting red. Lord Sesshoumaru was most displeased with his brother.

 

“Master Inuyasha's hand maiden said that he was in the training arena, but doesn't know if he is still there, my Lord.”

 

The pair walked to Inuyasha's last location.

 

oOoOoOo

 

Inuyasha's half assembled pack all gasp and ogled the tall silver haired man in front of them.

 

Steeling his nerves, Dante prepared to tell his secret. He could do this; he was after all the most feared Devil Hunter.

 

“My name is Dante. My Father was Sparda, the commanding General for the underworld's army.”

 

Again he managed to shock them.

 

“I heard of him,” Inuyasha found himself saying as one of his ears flicked off a fly.

 

“Yeah, me too,” Sango said a minute later tapping her index finger to her chin in thought.

 

“So, have I,” Miroku interjected as well.

 

Dante rolled his eyes - not surprised. Was there any body who didn't know of his Father? Then he looked at Kagome. Question marks bobbing around her head.

 

/Okay, so I found one/ he thought.

 

“If the Dark Knight was your Father then who is your Mother?” Sango asked.

 

“A human.”

 

Yet again the group was stunned speechless as they gazed at the man behind Dante dressed in blue. It was Dante's twin brother. They recovered by getting into battle stances - well, all except for Dante.

 

“What are you doing here, Vergil?” he asked.

 

“I came for you, brother.”

 

Dante slowly unsheathed Alastor. “Why, you fuckin' bastard? You should have stayed in Hell where you belong.”

 

“After my and Mundus' defeat on Mallet Island - the spell Mundus cast on me was broken. I've regained my lost memories and now I want what is rightfully mine.”

 

Dante chuckled darkly. “Didn't you hear, dear brother? I'm no longer to be had - I'm a married man now.”

 

“She has no claim on you, Dante; I do, unless of course you renounce our bond.”

 

The twin dressed in red (Dante) said nothing more. What bond were they talking about? But they didn't get to hear the answer as the brothers charged each other.

 

All excluding Inuyasha couldn't follow the precise movements as they danced around the opened field. Inuyasha laid back bored, not bothering to watch. He figured they would sooner or later knock each other out. His eyes were getting heavy and yawned widely. Inuyasha was going to take a nap, but for Sango, Kagome, Miroku they watched (as best as they could) at the light movements of the dueling twins.

 

Swords swooshed and clanked against each other as the twins tried to over power the other. They met head-on each blade rubbing with hot friction. The metal glowed at the point of contact.

 

“Do you remember, Dante?”

 

“Yeah, I remember. I remember how you left me to pick-up the pieces after you fell. I will not put myself through that type of pain again Vergil,” Dante hissed, pivoting on his right foot as Vergil did the opposite.

 

Time stilled as Vergil knocked the powerful weapon out of his younger brother's hands. It was just as before when they fought on top of Temen-ni-gru. Vergil plunged Yamato deep into Dante's stomach - blood dripped onto black calf high leather boots, only this time there was no cutting words of condescension or heavy rain fall. Alastor flipped back to the earth - embedding itself deeply into the soft grass.

 

With his left hand, Vergil pushed his brother off his sword. Dante fell to the ground, his blood seeping at a snail's pace into the dirt beneath his back as it spread out in the thick ankle high grass.

 

“Hey, you! Why did you kill him?!” Jumping up from her place on the ground, Kagome yelled at the standing twin. She was not pleased at what she saw. At least when Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru fought, they didn't give into the hate that had fueled their dislike for one another.

 

“Kagome! Look!” Miroku called out pointing to where Dante had fallen to his death.

 

His body was hidden in the grass but they saw the slight movement of his legs and his fingers bending as he stirred from being knocked unconscious by his bastard of a brother. Just as he was about to rise, Dante was yet again pierced by Alastor and Vergil.

 

/Son-of-a-bitch!/

 

A purifying arrow whizzed through the air, flying fast to its target only to be deflected.

 

“HIRAIKOTSU!”

 

The Large boomerang fell to the ground in pieces. Vergil air-tricked passed Sango and knocked her to the ground. One by one they fell but Inuyasha stood in front of Kagome after he saw the demon slayer fall. He was no longer being passive as the fighting now escalated to threatening his friends - his pack members. Miroku lashed out at Dante's brother but he too fell.

 

“You are of no significance to me.”

 

“Then why attack my friends?”

 

“I'm merely defending myself. Besides, your friends interfered between my brother and me.” Looking to Kagome, Vergil asked, “Why did he follow you here?”

 

She thought about what happened at the shrine. “Something happened to him…he…I don't know…he changed.”

 

Vergil was about to step toward her when a ball of blinding white light landed on the ground next to them and a person materialized before them.

 

A soft `damn' was muttered by Inuyasha who looked like he was in trouble.

 

“In-u-ya-sha.”

 

His name rolled off his brother's tongue like silk running along his skin - teasing him, tempting him. Inuyasha shivered.

 

Kagome noticed the silent heated exchanged between the half-brothers but there was an underlining passion that flowed from them. She could feel it, and she didn't like it.

 

“Why are you here with these…humans?” Sesshoumaru asked spiting out the last word with as much distain as the aristocrat could.

 

“I don't have to explain myself to you!”

 

Unbeknown to the younger half-demon his brother was not in the mood to listen or put up with his mouth. Normal cold emotionless golden orbs gradually bleed red, but no one noticed as their attention was drawn to the sword that was now sticking through Vergil's chest. Blood bubbled out of Vergil's mouth as he gasped for breath, eyes wide opened in shock.

 

Alastor crackled an electrifying blue as did its owner.

 

“You know, Vergil…” Dante hissed in his twin's ear pushing the sword in a little deeper until the hilt hit his back, “just because you're older doesn't mean you can treat me any kind of way. If you want me, you're going to have to reclaim me.” And snatched Alastor out. Blood squirted across the grass.

 

The monk and demon-slayer steadily got to their feet. Kagome ran to them passing by Dante and Vergil. Their auras flickered, both coming to their knees in a burst of energy.

 

“What the hell?” Inuyasha said.

 

Kagome screamed in fright - now there were two devils. Demons she could deal with. Devils; however, were something totally different. They were unpredictable and highly temperamental as well as vicious.

 

Enormous wings flared out - the group really couldn't distinguish them aside from Dante's red/black and Vergil's blue/black form.

 

Vergil quickly turned and launched himself at Dante, pulling Force Edge from his back. Dante parried the strike. Unfortunately, the force of the block rippled out causing those around to fly backwards. This in turn cause Sesshoumaru to transform to his true form as Inuyasha couldn't protect himself from being thrown into a near by tree, but what pushed the inu-youkai was when he heard something snap. His mate didn't move to stand back up.

 

Sesshoumaru towered over the fighting demon twins. He growled in warning for them to cease their petty squabble, but it went unheeded, so he did the next best thing to break them apart: he swatted both of them with a giant paw.

 

oOo TBC oOo

 

A/N: You know if Dante and Vergil are not careful they are going to end up as dog food. Well, so far this is getting to get pretty good. I can't believe that the twins were arguing in front of complete strangers! Talk about airing one's dirty laundry. I'm thrilled that everyone who has left positive feedback is delighted with the story.

 

Okay, so everyone is present and accounted for, now what? Dante and Vergil's devil trigger has done something to Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru didn't take too kindly to that. What will the young lord do? Stay tune for the next chapter to find out.

 

oOo Teaser for chapter 7 oOo

 

“Sesssh? Sesshoumaru?”

 

“I am here, brother.”

 

“What-what happened?”

 

“Those ningens started fighting and threw you into a tree breaking your arm, but you still injured.” Sesshoumaru's eyes gave away more information that Inuyasha has ever seen in them. “I smell death upon you.”

 

The inu-hanyou shut his eyes. He knew that it would come to this one day - it was just a matter of time. Inuyasha was dying.
