Chapter 7: Divine Release
The earth moved underneath her bare feet, as she walked out into the light. They all stopped in mid action, as the albino child made her way towards them. "What are you doing here Kanna?" spat Inuyasha, dropping Kagome from his grasp. She warily got to her feet, and stared at the small child as well. The white hair girl seemed to be focused on her in particular, shining the mirrors light in her face. Closing her eyes, Kagome backed away from the girl. "What are you doing, girl? Get away from me…" Kagome then sent a small telekinetic wave towards the girl, hoping to send her flying, but something unexpected happened. Kanna turned her mirror slightly in her hands, and Kagome was the one sent through the air. "Ah!" she cried as she flew with immense speed into a tall tree.
Her body made a loud sound against the bark, and then slid down the side of it, leaving a small trail of blood in her wake. She leaned against it for support, her eyes were closed in pain. The state her body was already in was not helping to deal with the sudden attack. Inuyasha followed Kagome with his eyes the entire time, and became quite enraged at the sight of her body being thrown across the clearing. He knew fully well that wasn't Kagome, but something inside of him told him otherwise; that she was still there. Tetsuiaga, which was still in his hand, transformed once more. Golden eyes held fire in them as he made his way to strike.
Sesshoumaru, whose claws began to glow green, made his way to strike as well. The two brothers ran at top speed to the still body of Kanna, who made no move to dodge. In between them, a boomerang flew, surpassing the demons and striking the child first. A loud clang and dust cloud was what followed. The two Inu's had halted to a stop in the dirt when they saw the demon slayers weapon make contact with the girl The dust slowly settled, revealing the giant boomerang's end in the air. The other was in the mirror, electric waves surrounding the base. Kanna held her mirror firmly, and turned it slightly in her hands.
The boomerang flew back at Sango, who hit the floor in futile attempts to dodge. The weapon still caught her in the back, sending her into the tree along side the poisoned Miroku. Kanna made a slight movement, and drifted away from the two angry demons before her. She slowly made her way towards the miko against the tree, mirror in hands. "Oh no you don't!" cried Inuyasha, who ran after the albino's retreating form. Sesshoumaru, however, stayed in his place for he knew what was to come once Inuyasha made his strike. "Ah….." he cried once he lifted his father's fang above his head, bringing it down in a quick movement.
Kanna, whose back was to him, turned around with her mirror high above her head. A loud "Bang" was heard, as Inuyasha tried with all his might to force the tetsuiaga through the fragile glass. Kanna stayed perfectly still, as though the impact had no effect on her what so ever. Inuyasha gritted his teeth, as he watched the tetsuiaga's tip get engulfed in a blue electrical storm. The girl at the receiving end of his attack simply turned the mirror to the right, which sent the hanyou through the air screaming in pure agony. He landed at the side of Sesshoumaru, flat on his back with blood spurting from his body.
Kanna awaited the taiyoukai's attack, but it never came. She balanced on the tips of her toes, mirror shining at her midsection. Sesshoumaru did nothing but stare, contemplating about something. There was something that did not make sense to him, and he wondered for a moment about attacking. `She is targeting the girl…' then it clicked inside his mind. By the time he came to his conclusion, Kanna was positioned in front of the miko's body. Her crimson orbs bore into the brown ones of the purest being ever to walk these lands. She couldn't move, and all Kagome could do was watch as this girl executed her attack. Past her, Sesshoumaru was simply watching, and she wondered why he didn't help.
Kanna's hair blew in the wind behind her, as she balanced herself once more on her toes. Kagome's attention was brought back to the child's mirror, which was at eye level with her. She saw her reflection in the glass for only a moment, before a white haze filled the screen. Her mouth opened slightly, and a small gray cloud escaped her lips. It got transferred into the glass before her, where it swirled around in the haze.
Kagome closed her eyes, and opened them again. Light from a fire filled the iris, and she blinked around the area with confusion. It only took a minute to realize what had happened, and the small albino before her confirmed her suspicions. She looked into the child's eyes, portraying gratitude from hers. Kanna closed her eyes, and began to turn around, when a shrill cry cut through the air "Blades of Blood!" Kanna didn't have time to ready her mirror, for the sharp blades were already upon her.
She soared through air, as her jewel crusted mirror fell to the hard ground with a thud. Her white clothes and hair was tainted with the red liquid, ruining the clean look to her. Kanna's red eyes were half closed, as she hit the floor a few feet from Kagome. "No…" Kagome whimpered, as she crawled on all fours to aid the small child. Inuyasha was panting heavily, doubled over his bleeding stomach. His eyes were filled with confusion, as he watched Kagome bring the girls face to rest on her lap. All eyes were on Kagome, who was shaking slightly due to tears that were about to fall.
In her arms she was holding the child that had saved her and that other demon's life. She brushed a few ivory hairs from the girls face, her warm hands contrasting with the cold skin. Kanna blinked at the girl above her, eyes full of emotion for the first time in her life. A child needs caring to grow healthy, and she never got as much as a passing glance. But here, a girl who she battled against was cradling her in her pure arms, showing forgiveness and love. Her sweet voice filled the soul stealer's ears "Thank you. You have saved my life." Kanna blinked her `you're welcome'. She brought a tiny hand up to the larger ones and squeezed them tight.
She brought the hand over her heart, and sucked in her final breathe, before leaving. She was finally free.
Kagome let a small tear fall onto the cold hand on hers, soon followed by more. `Why can I not heal?' she thought angrily. She had done it before, so why not now? What was it that she had done differently before for Inuyasha, which she can not do now? "I'm sorry, Kanna." She apologized for her weakness. Kagome moved the lifeless body off of her lap onto the ground before her. Once she removed her hand from Kanna's, she disappeared with a gust of wind.
Kagome's blood stained legs were shown as she stood up, and walked towards the rest. Her feet made a slight step on a chain, and she looked down to see Kanna's mirror, still swirling in a haze. She bent over to pick it up, and then she rubbed her hands over the jewels around it. Her soft brown eyes then turned towards Sesshoumaru, who slightly jumped at the sudden stare. She walked slowly towards the demon lord, all the while locking eyes with him. Kagome clutched the mirror one last time, before out stretching her hands to him.
"Here, Sesshoumaru-sama. I believe this belongs to you." He out stretched a hand of his own, touching Kagome's warm hands for a brief instant. The warmth that engulfed him from that simple touch ran throughout his entire body. `How can one be so pure?' he thought, while forming a small cloud at his feet. He then turned away from the girl, flying towards his castle in the west to restore his love. "Kagome?" Inuyasha panted out, and Kagome turned her head towards the hanyou with the warm eyes he knew and loved.
She ran to him and hugged him tightly around the waste, getting his blood all over her shirt. She did not care, but held on to him. They embraced each other for a while, before Kagome said "Let us go help the others, Inuyasha." He nodded his consent, and followed after her. Inuyasha sighed `The real Kagome…'
~*~*~*~
He rubbed a clawed finger over the glass as he made his way back to his cambers. The multi-colored jewels shown in the early morning sunlight in the corridors. His feet took him to the paper door, which was the only thing separating him and Yuna's breathing body. Sesshoumaru was about to enter, but Jakken and Rin came running towards him.
"Milord, you have returned. Please, this child is too much for me!" Rin smiled, saying "Me and Jakken played pin the tail on the donkey! And Jakken was the donkey! It was fun Sesshoumaru-sama! You must come play with Rin." "Not now, Rin." He clutched the mirror even tighter, and walked into the room. Yuna was in a clean outfit, and lay neatly on the large white bed. What surprised Sesshoumaru the most was seeing a bandaged Haru huddled in the open window. "I came to check on the Lady, my Lord." His rough voice replied to his unasked question. Sesshoumaru nodded, and continued to make his way towards the bed not even asking how Haru managed to get back so quickly.
Rin and Jakken watched silently as the taiyoukai of the west laid a round mirror on the bed beside Yuna. Haru's olive eyes watched in amazement as well, as he saw a wispy cloud of smoke leave the mirror, and enter Yuna's body. The silence grew heavier, as the room's inhabitants waited in anticipation. Minutes passed like hours, and yet Yuna refused to show signs of life. But a miracle occurred as the demoness sat up in the bed, looking around with emerald eyes. "Haru…" she whispered out, before turning to see golden eyes staring back at her. "Oh Sessie!" she cried, circling his midsection with her arms. "I have missed you. You will not believe how all this happened…" "There will be time later." He replied, tilting the woman's head up.
He placed to strong fingers underneath her chin, and brought her lips to his for a stolen kiss. The two's tongues battled together, as they circled each other with warm arms. Jakken and Haru respectfully turned their eyes away, but Rin just stared with an emotionless face. They broke apart a moment later, grasping each other in a tight hug. Sesshoumaru closed his eyes in content, but Yuna let hers wander around the room.
She first laid eyes upon the demon general, looking at him for a long moment. Next, she averted her gaze to the toad demon in the doorway. Next to him, was the small girl Sesshoumaru valued as much as her. She gave the child a cold stare. Rin stared as well, before closing her eyes. The child shook her small head, in a disappointed and sorrowful manner.

Glass could be heard breaking in the back round. Loud yells and screams of anger was emitting form the central part of the castle. Naraku was in his chambers, breaking everything inside. He punched the stone wall, leaving a large hole in his wake. Blood poured from his knuckles, but the man enjoyed the sting pain gave him. "It can be!" he cried once more, crushing the bed stand. "That child betrayed me! Ruined everything!" he kicked the wall opposite him. `If she hadn't done that, the miko would be dead!' he screamed mentally. "Ah!" he cried, throwing his mattress out the door.
The angered hanyou stood in the pile of debris and dust, blood spilling from fresh cuts. On the floor was the puddle, his window to the world. It was unharmed during his tantrum, and the screen was showing the young teen he feared most. Naraku watched earlier as his incarnation betrayed him, saving that miko's life. He couldn't stand it anymore. Every night he fell asleep, the girl haunting his dreams. The picture of her pure hands touching him, disintegrating him on the spot made him cower in fear like a mere human. Too many nights he had awoken in a cold sweat. Too many nights he went without sleep, for the mere thought of her made his heart stop.
`Not any more' he decided. `I shall do this myself. No more plans, no more tricks.' Naraku punched a hole in the wall leading towards is court yard. He stepped through the hand made door, out into the cold mountain air. `I shall be released from this girl once and for all' His red eyes spotted his most recent incarnation, leaning against the ledge. With all the commotion, the demon didn't even turn his piercing blue eyes to see what had happened.
Naraku ignored him, and continued walking. Kagura, who was now out of bed, watched with a bemused expression on her face as her creator leapt over the edge. She hurried and walked alongside of her brother. `I no longer need the parasite, it seems'
"It looks as though we will not need to take things into our own hands, brother. He is walking to his grave as we speak." No-name did not acknowledge her. New thoughts raced through his mind. If what she said was true, he did not need Kagura either.
With quick as lightning hands, he grasped the wind sorceress's throat. He began his transition, sucking more than her powers; he sucked her life force. Kagura tried to scream in pain, but her windpipes were being crushed together. Her feet kicked in the air below her, and her bubblegum orbs stared daggers at the parasite. His blue stripes were glowing once more, and his power increases ten fold.
Kagura gasped on final time, before falling limp in his strong hands. He unceremoniously dropped the body, leaving it in a heap on the floor. At least he had some entertainment today.
The red haired demon stared at her blank eyes with hatred. She tried to control and manipulate him as well. No more would he be used. He would kill any one who tried. The parasite bent down, and pulled a feather from his now late sister's hair. Focusing his new energy into the feather, it grew to a large size, and he placed himself on top of it. He stayed afloat in the air for a few moments, observing the castle. He closed his eyes, and turned around.
Where would he go? He had no destination, no goals he wanted to achieve. The only thing he did want was to be free, and now he was. But where to go from here?
Was it worth going through what he did, for a name? Oh yes, a name. That was something he wanted….but where to go to find it? The trade winds were blowing, drifting his uncontrolled feather to the east. And that was where he was heading.
Naraku, on the other hand, was venturing west. He was oblivious to the fact that his incarnation was on the run, and he probably wouldn't care if he knew. All that mattered now was disposing the miko once and for all. If he ever wanted to sleep easy, she would have to be cold and dead in the ground beneath him. He tried every thing in his power to avoid sullying his own hands in the attempt, but it seems a higher power refuses to let the girl die. Well, he would contradict this power. He made his way over rocks and trees, following the unmistakable lavender scent of the miko. `I shall sleep well tonight.'
End Chapter 7- sorry, I have a knack for short chapters!
~* My Will (English version) *~
I wait for my saint and face the day,
But I have the hope to reach you someday.
I cannot go on, take other steps,
Because my way's not easy to go.
Love, even I do believe when I see you,
I need to take my time.
Spend some days alone being by myself will be all I do.
If it doesn't exist in everlasting love,
In which I could believe.
I was hurt because I was strong and crude
Knowing that I don't want to loose you, no
Thinking of you made me cry.
See my eyes; they were filled with tears,
And all I got is my will to be with you again.
Fox- tear…poor Kanna.
Innyubabe4e- what a b-day gift! People dieing left and right! I love it!
