Chapter Eight
The Inevitable Begins
Kagome hugged Rin hard. Tears were coursing down the young girl's face, as she clutched her adopted okaa-san. The okaa-san that has to leave. "Don't worry, Rin." Kagome whispered, just as upset as the little girl. "I'll be back."
Rin gave no reply, but instead hung herself onto the older girl. Kagome's eyes shone with unshed tear, as she realized how close these people have become to her. Really, she's going to miss them like mad.
"Rin." Sesshoumaru called. Immediately, Rin loosened her hold. Giving Kagome a Remember Me, she said, "Remember Rin, OK onee-chan?"
Kagome accepted this brilliant flower from the girl that's found a place in her heart. "Of course, Rin."
Sighing, she rose and regarded Sesshoumaru. His face had return to their normal mask. No emotion were betrayed, and Kagome swallowed, wondering if she'd ever made any impact on his life. "Arigatô gozaimasu (thank you, formally), Sesshoumaru-sama." Kagome thanked, bowing her respect.
"Dou itashimashite (you're welcome)."
Blinking, Kagome turned away from him, from the man that'd become the love of her life. From the man that had saved her from the brink of death.
From the man she'd given her heart and soul to.

"Are you sure you're alright, Kagome?" Sango asked. Kagome had refused to ride on InuYasha, as she usually does. Instead, she rode behind Sango on Kirara. Nodding, the girl proceeded to prevent herself from thinking of the Demon Lord further.
InuYasha knew what was causing Kagome to be so out of it. His blood still boiled from what Sesshoumaru had done to his Kagome. Damn it! He swore. If it hadn't been the fact that Kagome didn't seem to want him to tear off his bastard brother's head, he would have done so in seconds.
So deep were the group in their own world, that they did not immediately notice a demon slink up to them. Catching on too late, the attack had came. InuYasha swore again, for his carelessness. Judging from the maisma (evil ki, I believe) this demon was protruding, he's powerful.
However, he paid no heed to the scowling hanyou, but instead turned its attention to Kagome. "Give me the shards, bitch." He snarled.
Kagome frowned, eyeing him with bored indifference not unlike Sesshoumaru's. "I am no female dog, thankyouverymuch." She sniffed, drawing out the nearest weapon, her sword. "You, on the other hand, could be one."
Jumping gracefully off of Kirara, she allowed her miko powers to enter the blade, creating it to be deadly to the touch of any youkai. The insult from earlier seemed to cause the demon reckless with rage.
He dashed at her, claws extended, ready to rip out her throat, when she suddenly disappeared from before him. Shocked, he found the miko had flipped over him, and had landed gracefully behind him. Her eyes narrowed, she allowed a quick slice onto his back. He howled with the pain, as he slowly became purified.
Kagome watched him, disgust in her eyes. "I have nothing against demons." She said, as he slowly dissolved. "But, to blood sucking, human eating youkai without a single remorse like yourself………that I cannot stand."
Then, she turned on her heels and headed off again, leaving behind her a dead youkai and stunned companions.

"What happened?!" The figure rose automatically out of his chair. The bowing figure before him flinched from the terror that coursed through his frame.
"Thousand a-apologies, my Lord Raion. But, that was…"
Anger flared from his eyes, and the temperature of the room suddenly skyrocketed. "Send word to the other Territories immediately." He ordered.
He took a deep breath. "So, the time has come at last."
~*~*~*~
Sesshoumaru frowned at the messenger before him. The pathetic creature cowered in fear from the Demon Lord, afraid to even raise it's face.
"You shouldn't be so scary, Sesshoumaru."
Sighing, he scribbled a quick response to Raion, telling him he will hold the meeting in his domain. Really, this battle were inevitable. It was just a matter of time before he would include the demon lords in his sick and twisted game.
Handing the piece of parchment to Jaken, who in turn gave it over to the messenger. Sesshoumaru's emotionless voice rang through the entire throne hall as he said, "You are dismissed."
