InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ In-between Appearances ❯ In-between Appearances chap. 2 ( Chapter 3 )

Disclaimer: Inuyasha and it's characters don't belong to me. If they did the story would revolve around Sesshoumaru and because that's not true, you can tell it's not mine.

Title: In-between Appearances.

Summery: Lets face it, other than Inuyasha and his group, most other characters have many episodes between appearances. I'm sure it's been done before, but this is what happened to some of the characters in-between eps.

------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------

The wind blades fly at Sesshoumaru, who without even trying, bats them away. "Maybe you should get your eyes checked." Sesshoumaru observes dispassionately. "You bastard! You just killed my sister, and your trying to give me advice!?" Kagura is about to launch another attack when her eyes pan across what was supposed to be her sisters torn body.

Sesshoumaru sheaves his sword and walks back towards his followers. Kagura looks around where the body should of been. All that's there is a wooden human shaped object and her mirror laying on the ground. "Naraku! You asshole!" Kagura screams as she falls to her knees. Tears, of joy and stress, welling up in her eyes.

"Kagura," Naraku's voice comes from every direction, or perhaps just in her head. "Just as with Inuyasha's sword, the Tetsusaiga, Sesshoumaru's sword can't get by Kanna's mirror. That's all I need to know, return to the castle immediately." The voice of Naraku goes silent after that.

"Damn you, playing with me like that." Kagura angrily gets on her feather and flies off. "I'll get you one of these days." She mutters under her breath. From the ground below Sesshoumaru watches her fly off much like the last time.

Sesshoumaru's followers come up behind him after a few moments. "My lord?" "Enough Jaken." Sesshoumaru says as if nothing had happened and continues in the direction they had been heading before the fight. However on the inside Sesshoumaru was getting annoyed. 'Twice over you've made an attempted on my life, pitiful attempts, but attempt non the less.' Sesshoumaru's eyes narrow slightly as the walk father on. 'Human, demon, or even hanyou. All that dare to cross my path will feel my wrath.'

Sesshoumaru shakes the thoughts out of his head. He wasn't going to go out of his way to slay Naraku, no he was just going to wait, sure the foolish hanyou would try something again. He was however, unconcerned about that, he would deal with it when the time came.

Kagura arrives back at the castle not long after her second encounter with Sesshoumaru. She storms by the real Kanna, and kicks the door leading to Naraku's room down.

"Yes come in Kagura." Naraku says not bothering to raise from his seated position on the floor. "Did you enjoy the performance, Kagura? Pulling one over on a Youkai like Sesshoumaru is a rare thing, indeed." Kagura doesn't say anything for a moment. 'Pull one over on Sesshoumaru? What's he talking about, Sesshoumaru knew that Kanna was a fake before I did.'

Taking Kagura's silence as agreement with him Naraku continues. "But do you want to know the real reason I arranged this act?" Naraku finally gets of the ground and stands before Kagura. "It was to show you that I can now my puppets of my detachments as well as myself." Naraku turns his back towards Kagura, who still had yet to comment.

"Tell me, how shocked was Sesshoumaru when that Kanna he killed turned out to just be a mere puppet, rather than the real thing?" 'Of course with Kanna's mirror with the puppet, and using the poison insects doesn't work against someone like Sesshoumaru, of course he doesn't know, he just thinks everything went as planed.' Kagura smirks from behind her fan.

"Naraku, you've underestimated Sesshoumaru," "Is that so, Kagura?" "You fool! Sesshoumaru knew it was a puppet from the beginning." Naraku's eyes narrow. 'I that possible? Perhaps I have underestimated him than, but I bet Inuyasha and his friends wouldn't know the difference till the puppet was destroyed.'

"You have a good point for once, Kagura. I have been letting Sesshoumaru off the hook, and really haven't tried my best, but maybe it's time for a change." 'What's Naraku got planning now? He should realize that if his plans fail against Inuyasha, than there's know hope of them being successful against Sesshoumaru.'

"Go give Kanna back her mirror, I have planning to do." Naraku goes to sit back down in his normal spot when he notes that Kagura had yet to move. "What are you waiting for?" Naraku says getting impatient.

"I left it back where the puppet fell." Naraku's eyes narrow, Kagura barely represses a shudder from his piercing eyes. "Well had I been informed before all of this I would have known it was the real thing and not just a copy." Kagura hears something behind her, but before she can turn around to check what it is, a tentacle grabs her wrists and pins them to her side.

"Kagura I have no idea where you fought Sesshoumaru, but I can't let you go unpunished for this, I'm sure my pets can find it on their own without you." Naraku than grabs Kagura's feet with a second tentacle, and drags her down into the basement.

Well that's chapter two. More people seem to like my story now. Well two people review at different places and one person told me over IM that they liked the story. You three are my inspiration to keep going, and to actually get this chapter done. It's been half done for almost a week now. Anyways stuff about the story. I was originally going to have Naraku be pissed at Kagura because he now knew that if Sesshoumaru attacked, it would be one of one, as the other two really would have no impacted on the fight. But at the last second I decided to change it to what is up their. But it still turned out ok I think. As always R&R if ya feel like it.
