InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Diamonds Are A Girl's Best Friend ❯ The Pipe Fox Spirit Pt. 2 ( Chapter 5 )

The Pipe Fox Spirit Pt. 2

 

“I'll take it from here,” Yuki told the spirit as it hobbled into the cave and looked at him with what appeared to be hurt in its eyes. “You take a good rest,” Yuki said as he pulled a pipe, usually used for smoking, out of his sleeve. The large fading away into a mist that wrapped around Yuki's arm and became the little fox spirit, which he put into the pipe and then on one of the shelves.

 

After putting the spirit away, Yuki walked over to a big jug of water in one of the corners and tapped the surface with one of his fingers. The water rippling and reflecting the injured Koga, who was panting and leaning against a tree holding his wound on his shoulder.

 

`He's still alive?' Yuki thought shocked as he looked at the reflection. `Well, we're just going to have to fix that,' he thought with an evil smirk on his face.

 

Clenching a fist, Yuki slammed it into the water and grinned.

 

Looking up, Koga gasped and jumped as the mists swirled, before a big misty arm came down and slammed into the ground were he was just at.

 

“Wh-What?” Koga gasped at the hand as it turned back into mist and joined the rest of the strange blue fog surrounding the forest.

 

Meanwhile Yuki frowned at the image of the injured, but not dead, wolf as he sent more blows into the water that became more misty fists that slammed into the round after Koga, who ran to avoid them.

 

“It isn't going to be that easy to avoid me,” Yuki's voice cackled throughout the forest as Koga kept running before running smack into some sort of invisible wall.

 

“Ow! What the hell!?” Koga gasped after his run-in with Mr. Invisible Wall as he stood and rubbed his head.

 

Laughing at the wolf's reflection rubbing his head, Yuki drew a maze on the water's surface with his finger over the reflection of the forest, the trees roots shifting and taking on the shape of his maze.

 

“Wh-What? A maze?” Koga gasped as the trees roots came up and surrounded him, “I…am…out of here!” Koga shouted as he bent his knees and jumped towards the sky and was suddenly stopped by some invisible shield that sent him flying back towards the ground.”

 

“*ha ha* Don't you know you can't just jump out of a maze, young wolf? You must go through it…and me…if you want to get out,” Yuki's voice cackled as another misty fist hurled towards Koga, who dodged it and began running through the forest maze.

 

`Hmmm. It's going to take more than that to get rid of him? I guess I'll have to get rid of him after all,' Yuki thought as he removed his black robe. Revealing a pair of black kimono pants with a long black tail hanging out and a black Tank Top that was tucked into his pants, before jumping into the large jug and disappearing.

 

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

 

Running through the forest, Koga cursed as he came to a dead-end as the mists swirled once again, this time taking on the shape of a wolf's head. The mouth opening and a shadowy figure coming out down at him with an arm reared back, which it slammed into the ground as it landed, making a giant crater.

 

“Yu…Yuki?” Koga gasped at the sorcerer who was standing motionlessly in the crater, with his fist still at the bottom, his bangs hiding his face, as he gave an evil sneer.

 

“You…BASTARD!” Koga shouted, charging towards Yuki with his left arm outstretched and ready to attack.

 

“*feh* Please,” Yuki snickered, moving opposite of Koga's blow and grabbing his arm and sticking his own into Koga's side, who gasped out blood, before flipping him towards the way they had come into the dead-end, causing Koga to skid in the ground.

 

`He's stronger than he looks,' Koga thought as he got to his feet. Looking away from the sorcerer, and the dead end, Koga noticed a section of maze beside him and ran down it before Yuki could blink, leaving him totally shocked.

 

Recovering from his shock, Yuki lowered his head and shook it and snickered, “Haven't you figured it out young wolf? Running will not help you,” before disappearing into a blue smoke.

 

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

 

Running at his top speed, Koga dodged and weaved through the root maze not seeming to go, anywhere except in circles, as Yuki's words from before echoed in his mind.

 

“You must go through… my maze! through my maze…!…through my maze…”

 

`That's it! I'll just go through this stupid thing!' Koga thought happily, with a big grin on his face.

 

Meanwhile a sorcerer watched from a tree very amused.

 

`Through it!? He thinks he can go through my maze!? Now this is going to be funny!' Yuki laughed to himself.

 

Backing away from one of the walls, Koga stopped when he got to the other side and began running at top speed with an outstretched fist. Hitting the wall, Koga kept running as the wall stretched out like rubber before reaching its limit and hurling him back into a tree.

 

“*heh heh* That obviously didn't work. Eh, young wolf?” a voice snickered from the tree.

 

“You!” Koga gasped as a figure hopped out of the tree to the ground.

 

“Now now, young wolf. Don't get up. In fact, you can't,” Yuki said as Koga began to rise, and snapped his fingers, the trees branches coming to life, grabbing Koga and pinning him to it in an all to close bear hug, Koga trying to struggle free but with no luck.

 

“Now young wolf, is this any way for a demon to act? I know you're upset about my diamond, but it is only for the best,” Yuki said calmly as he stepped up to Koga, coming face-to-face with him.

 

“What the hell are you talking about?” Koga growled.

 

“*sigh* As I told you before, young wolf, what I gave you was the Diamond of Love. But, I didn't just give it to you to get that girl. I wanted to see if this `love' between you and this girl was real.”

 

“You-You mean…that-that diamond…” Koga gasped, his eyes wide open.

 

“…only works with a mutual love. If this `Kagome' truly loved you, it would have never activated on her and this half-demon.”

 

“You mean…” Koga gasped.

 

“…nothing but an unrequited love.”

 

“You mean…she'll…”

 

“…become a half-demon and…”

 

“…forget me?”

 

“No. That part I lied about. She will remember you. But, as I said, will burn with a desire for this half-demon, or at least more so than before.”

 

“No, that can't be true! She's my mate!” Koga yelled as he shook his head and struggled to get off the tree.

 

“Oh, really? Has she ever told you that? Has she ever said she loves you and no one else?” the sorcerer nodded when there was no response and Koga merely lowered his head.

 

Stepping up to Koga, Yuki grabbed his chin and raised it, looking deep into his eyes. The blue color fading as each one reflected a girl, the right reflecting a black and white image of a girl in a school uniform and the left reflecting a color image of a red haired girl dressed in white furs.

 

Letting go of Koga's face, Yuki stepped down as Koga came out of his trance.

 

“You're wrong, young wolf. The wolf-demon with red hair and white furs is your true soul mate,” Yuki stated.

 

“NO! I love Kagome! Nobody else! I don't care what you say, I *uhn*…” Koga grunted as Yuki suddenly socked him, his face in utter shock.

 

“Enough already! You sound like a child! The girl does not love you! She loves Inu Yasha! Now stop blubbering like a child and face this like a man and choose your real soul mate and stop this foolishness!” Yuki shouted.

 

“But…I love her.”

 

“My god you're hopeless. But, if you're that stubborn, I guess there's nothing even I can do,” Yuki sighed, “You know, I'm really sick of you. You've defiantly overstayed your welcome. It is time…for you…to GO!” Yuki shouted, his hair blowing up as the roots loosened and a big vortex of air came from and at Koga, sending him high into the blue misty sky and down outside of the forest by the lake.

 

“Wh-What?” Koga moaned as he sat up, his wounds and injuries amazingly gone, rubbing his head and looking around. “What the hell am I doing out here!?” he growled before running off as an unseen pair of eyes watched him from the forest.

 

“*heh heh* Young wolf, you nor your clan will ever remember me or the time you spent with me,” a voice chuckled, “I almost feel sorry for him. He's going to be heartbroken when that girl chooses that half-demon as her mate. But, it is for the best. Besides, if that diamond did work on him and the girl, her priestess side would have tried to destroy her demon side, and vise-versus, and she would have internally and unconsciously killed herself. Then, he really would have been mad.”

 

`Hmmm. `Inu Yasha.' I could've sworn that I've heard that name before. *gasp* Could he be…? Naw, he couldn't be.' Yuki thought as he disappeared inside of the mists.

 

Meanwhile the girl walked on, oblivious to Koga's and Yuki's discussion or what was happening to her.
