InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Revenge and honor or love with the enemy ❯ chapter 6 ( Chapter 6 )

Chapter six

AN: this chappie has a long dream, well sorta long, but it will be italicized so done get confused.

Kurai fell to the ground, on her knees and hands. Tears fell from her eyes, dropping to the body below her. “Don't die, daddy. Please don't leave me like everyone else.” She cried. It wasn't her older self; it was a young cub daemoness. A hand rose to stroke the side of her cheek, blood smearing across the side of her face.

“How you've grown, my young Kurai.” The weak voice managed to escape from the father's mouth.

“Nai, father please don't let the spirit takers steel your soul. Don't give in to there trickery.” She pleaded, grabbing her father's hand, embracing it with hers.

“You know as well as I that it is my time.” The youkai added, smiling slightly.

“No, papa. You must stay with me so I can care for you as mother did before she left us with the soul stealers. I need you to stay, you need you to stay.” She said before closing her eyes and flooding her cheeks with tears.

“My dear Kurai, you are just like your mother. Stubborn, as well as caring.” He said with a slight chuckle that led to a cough. “Please, Kurai remember this day as the day you were set free. One day you will know what to do… please take this and…*cough*…and keep it in remembrance of you family.” He said handing her a stone with a green jewel in the center. Kurai opened her eyes, surrounded by darkness. There was nothing but black around her. She looked into her hand, which held the stone. In the center of the green jewel, was what looked like a drop of red, no, blood. She clenched it in her fist, squeezing it tightly. She looked around in the pitch-blackness. Nothing but black was seen as far as the eyes of the youkai could see. She could hear footsteps coming closer to her. She turned in the direction they came from, but nothing was there. She could still hear the footsteps so she glanced around, agitatedly trying to find the beholder of the noise. She could feel her tears begin running down her face as she began running away from the noise. Running away from nothing, running to nowhere, running deeper and deeper into the darkness. She began to run faster as the noise got louder. She stumbled over herself and fell headfirst into the ground. The footsteps stopped. She looked up to see a hand, waiting to help her up. She followed the arm that was connected to the hand. She looked up to see who it was; it was Sesshomaru. She gasped and grabbed the hand, immediately being pulled up. Sesshomaru thrust her towards him, pressed his lips against hers, grabbing her by the neck. Then he through her into the darkness then disappeared into nothingness. She was confused. She felt her self begin to cry again, this time while flying through darkness. She finally fell, but hit nothing. She landed but only on darkness. She huddled against a wall, which was as black as the darkness around her, and wrapped her arms around her legs. She laid her forehead on the arms and let the tears fall onto the ground, creating a puddle around her.

“Help me.” She whispered to herself. “Somebody, please help me!” she yelled into the echoing nothingness. She felt a shiver run through her body before a hand reached over and touched her shoulder. She turned around to see a beautiful youkai standing behind her where the wall used to be.

“Daughter, do not be troubled. You mustn't look in that direction. You are facing the wrong way. Turn around; go back to where you were before. Start over. You have come to do one thing, but were sidetracked by forbid ness. Do what you have planned to do.” The joudama said with a love-bearing smile on her face. That soon changed to an evil smirk. Her hair flew around freely, as if wind blew through it. Stripes shown across her face, her eyes changed from the beautiful sapphire to a dark blood red. “Kill him. Get revenge for your village, your ancestors, and your loved ones. Kill the man, that's offered love to you. You dishonor the family if you return that offer.” She growled, scratching Kurai's shoulder. Kurai screamed a scream that would have made humans become deaf. There was no pain, only blood. She had no reason to scream. She had only been the bearer of the noise, but something else forced her to scream. She just sat there in the dark corner, staring up at the mocking mother, as she scratched and tortured her. Kurai screamed, not needing to take a breath, but not running out of breath. She could hear a faint voice, beyond the loud torturous screams she howled.

“Kurai, um madam. Wake up. Wake up.” The small voice said from beyond the dreams she was having.

She opened her eyes and felt the rumble in her throat from the scream. She quickly shut her mouth and looked over to the voice. It was the miko that had shot her with the arrow.

“Are you all right? You were screaming pretty loud.” The girl asked trying to comfort the tortured soul. Kurai stared at the ningen. Why is this, ningen worried for me? I can sense the fear in her, but it's not the fear for her life. She fears for me. She thought to herself. “Hello? Can you hear me? I asked if your alright.” The miko asked, worrying about the daemoness. Kurai snapped out of her thoughts and answered.

“Yes, I'm fine.” She replied, still confused of the miko's actions. She tried to kill the girl, and yet, the girl worries for her health. “Where are we?” she quickly asked, trying to break the awkward silence.

“We are in Naraku's keep. He captured us as bait.” She replied, frowning at the last sentence.

“Bait? What or who are we bait for?” she asked as she noticed she was chained against a wall, facing out into the forest.

“…Them.” Kagome said, sounding a little more joyful than before. Kurai looked in the direction Kagome pointed to. Sure enough, there was Sesshomaru jumping from tree to tree, soon followed by the hanyou brother of his. She looked down to the wall that surrounded the keep. There were all sorts of hidden youkai hidden behind it waiting to attack. She looked towards the nearing brothers, then back down to the guards. She then looked over to Kagome, who looked as though she had noticed the same thing as well. She could not only see, but also sense the fear burning from her eyes. Kurai opened her mouth to warn the two coming, but was quickly stopped by a puff of air near her ear. She turned to see Naraku with his nose near her ear.

“Keep your mouth shut my dear.” He said before sauntering to the chair in the middle front of the two girls. He sat down and motioned one of his servants to his side, the servant knelt down to his ear. Then the servant left his side and walked towards the door next to Kagome. The servant smirked as he walked by Kagome, moving his hand down to crotch. He thrust his hand towards and squeezed her before he opened the door and disappeared into the hallway. Kagome felt a tear slide down the side of her face and looked out to where Sesshomaru and Inuyasha hoping for her mate to hurry. Kurai looked over to the girl only to pity the girl. Naraku chuckled and stood up welcoming his nearing guests.

 

`~`~`~`~`~`With Sesshomaru and Inuyasha`~`~`~`~`~`

 

Sesshomaru could see the keep becoming closer and closer. He could hear his brother rambling on below him about how he was going to kill him if Sesshomaru touched `his Kagome'. He smirked at the stupidity of his brother, threatening about what will happen if Kagome gets hurt by Sesshomaru, when he should really be worrying about what Naraku was planning.

“Oi, little brother, hold your tongue. I am concentrating.” Sesshomaru warned his brother, only loud enough so that the hanyou himself could hear it.

“Oh shut up Sesshomaru. Can you see Naraku's palace yet?” Inuyasha asked, while jumping up to a tree near his brother.

“Hai, there seems to be an arena ready for us.” He answered to his impatient hanyou brother.

“Ok, can you see anything else? Maybe a sign that says directions or something?” Inuyasha sarcastically asked. Sesshomaru, with his patience running very low, leaps a few trees closer to get a better view. His eyes widened at what he saw. His mate was chained to a wall along with the miko along side her. They were wearing nothing but a loosely fit night blue robe with red lining the bottoms. There was black lace at the end of the sleeves. They were each hung as if they were crucified, with their arms stretched out, creating a cross. Sesshomaru clenched his fists and grinded his teeth before jolting off in the direction of the castle, all the while his eyes changed from their yellow gold to a deep, dark red.

“Hey, did you see something?” Inuyasha asked soon fallowing his elder brother.

 

`~`~`~`~`~` At Naraku's Throne`~`~`~`~`~`

 

Naraku, pleased by the anger he caused the western lord, watched the two siblings become nearer and nearer. He then turned around and walked towards Kurai. He slid his hand between her two plump breasts. Kurai Narrowed her eyes and tried to move to strike but was unable to because of the miasma Naraku was surrounded by. A smirk drew across his face as he pulled his hand back and pulled something from underneath his robes. Kurai watched as he showed her what he held. Her eyes widened as she noticed what it was. It was the amulet from her dream, but this time it had a jewel shard tied onto it with a strand of black hair. Kagome watched closely as Naraku held the jewel and stone in the palm of his hand, then placing it between the breasts. The stone shined a bright blue color, and then dissolving into her skin. Kurai screamed as all of the features of her daemon form began to appear. Her eyes turning to a dark red, stripes appeared on various parts of her body. At the sound of the scream Sesshomaru quickened his pace, become angrier than before. Kagome, shocked at what Naraku had done to the beautiful wolf daemoness from before. Kurai struggled against the chains trying to break free. Naraku moved closer to her neck and whispered into her ear, “Avenge your family, kill the man who caused you village disaster.” At that Naraku released Kurai. She jumped to the ground then towards Her mate, and her enemy, with her weapon appearing in her hand.

“You sick Bastard, Naraku!” Kagome accused. Naraku simply walked over to the girl slapping her across the face, leaving a red imprint of his hand on her cheek.

“I will deal with you later, miko.” He warned returning to his chair.

Sesshomaru stopped in his tracks as his mate charged at him, threatening to kill him. He quickly dodged the attack but was immediately bombarded with another attack. He could sense the anger inside her, but there was another scent. He dodged another attack and tried to single out the unknown scent. Dodging attack after attack, he finally recognized it. He watched as his brother passed him in confusion why his brother was being attacked by his mate, but only put it off and pursued his. Sesshomaru blocked yet another attack, and quickly grabbed Kurai's arm. She quickly dropped her weapon and caught it in the other hand. Sesshomaru was not quick enough this time, deep in though and all, and was hit in the left side of his stomach. He winced from the pain but didn't let go of his mate.

“Let me go, you asshole!! I demand you to put me down,” she growled, struggling to break free. Sesshomaru quickly hit her in the temple, only hard enough to knock her out, and caught her as she fell unconscious. Then he jumped down below the trees and laid her down on the ground near a tree. He looked over to see the houshi, the daemon slayer, the fire cat, and the kitsune running in his direction. He smirked and then headed to the keep himself.

“LOOK! Look, Sango, it's the pretty wolf lady that attacked us the other night.” Shippo yelled, jumping off of Kirara's back and over to Kurai.

“Shippo, don't touch her. She is not our business.” Sango stated as Shippo hopped back over to Kirara.

“Fine!” He complained.

“Come on, Kagome and Inuyasha may need our assistance.” Miroku added walking towards the battle.

 

`~`~`~`~`~`With Inuyasha and Sesshomaru`~`~`~`~`~`

 

Inuyasha watched as Naraku slapped his Kagome, making him climb to faster speeds. Sesshomaru laughed in his thoughts to see his hanyou brother's recklessness. He himself could sense the youkai hiding behind the doors, so he waited so they could tear his sibling to pieces. Inuyasha stopped before the doors, sniffing the air.

“Naraku, call you hounds off!” the hanyou yelled. Naraku only laughed and stood up.

“Welcome, my guests. Please join me in the show.” He invited them as if they were actually guests to him. Then he walked over to Kagome and grabbed her chin. “You shall be my guest of honor, wench.” He stated, throwing the face to the side.

“Get your hands off her, you asshole!” Inuyasha yelled, tightening the grip around his Tenseiga. Sesshomaru only watched with great amusement, as his brother gets all worked up over a stupid ningen.

“Inuyasha, you fool. Give me the shikon no tama, and I will gladly hand over this petty human of yours.” He offered walking to the flight of stairs leading to the arena.

“Keep your dirty hands off of her. I will never give you the shikon no tama.” Inuyasha said before soaring towards Naraku.

“As you wish.” he said before motioning towards his minions in hiding to defend the keep.

“Naraku, you have forgotten one little detail. I have my own score to settle with you.” Sesshomaru sternly stated, unsheathing his toujin and holding it to his side.

“Maybe I am not the one forgetting something.” He said pointing behind Sesshomaru. Sesshomaru turned around to see his mate standing there with a fighting stance. There was something different about her though, her eyes looked as if they were empty and hallow. “If you hadn't noticed yet, I control her. Do you really think I would let a strong fighter like that go to waist? How foolish of you.” He ended with a laugh.

“You bastard, Naraku!” Kagome repeated, again being slapped. Inuyasha, who was still struggling against the crowd of youkai, growled as Naraku hit Kagome. He quickly changed form and fought off the attacks. Attack after attack he killed each youkai, making his way to Naraku.

“Get away from her, dammit!” he yelled, rushing towards Naraku. He was intercepted by yet another youkai, but this one was much bigger than the others. He growled and began fighting off the gigantic beast.

Sesshomaru watched as his empty and soulless mate attack him. She moved as if she were on strings, being used as a puppet. He swung his hand towards her; she quickly dodged it. She swung at him with her weapon he dodged it. He clawed at her only a few more times before using his own weapon against hers. Clashing with her sword, she came at him again.

Sango peered out from her spot behind a bush. She looked up at Sesshomaru and Kurai jumping at each other, and blocking each other's attacks. Then she looked over to the busted down entrance of Naraku's palace. She could see, inside, that Inuyasha was having difficulty fighting off the huge daemon. When she reached the top of the stairs, her eyes widened. “Miroku, look!” she said pointing inside the walls towards Kagome and Naraku. Miroku looked up to see Naraku standing in front of Kagome with his hands leaning against the walls surrounding her. “Come on, lets go help her out, before something worse happens.” Sango suggested. Miroku only shook his head and all four of them ran towards Kagome.

 

`~`~`~`~`~`Naraku and Kagome`~`~`~`~`~`

 

“I hope your mate won't mind me courting you as my own.” He breathed into her ear. She could feel something hard rub against leg.

“Don't touch me you arrogant…” she was cut off by Naraku shoving his lips against hers in a rough, dominant kiss. He forced his tongue into her mouth, and at the same time, rubbing his hands over her breasts. Kagome felt tears begin falling down her face. Naraku let go of her mouth for air, and then began kissing and biting her neck roughly. “Please…stop...” Kagome begged, sobbing from the pain of each kiss. Naraku slowly moved his hands to the edges of her robes, and pulled them off with one quick movement, causing them to rip off of her arms. She screamed as the robe yanked her wrists against the chains. Inuyasha heard her scream and quickly jumped into the air for a view of what the problem was. He quickly filled with anger and slit the daemon in half. Bu doing so the remains of the one large youkai formed into hundreds more youkai. Inuyasha growled impatiently as they all came rushing towards him.

“HEY, Inuyasha!” Sango yelled towards him, “Don't worry about them, you go save Kagome from that creep!” At this Inuyasha leapt towards Kagome and Naraku. To busy with untying his robes, he didn't notice Inuyasha coming. He finally undid them and placed himself in front o Kagome's entrance. Kagome let out a scream of horror as he thrust himself into her.

“Get you slimy hands off of her, asshole.” Inuyasha warned from behind Naraku. He quickly pulled out of Kagome and turned to face the pissed hanyou. Inuyasha sliced Naraku's head off, but only to get another one of his puppets. He looked up to see a crying Kagome, naked and bleeding from the wrists. He quickly cut the chains from the wall and let her fall into his arms. Her wrapped his outer coat around her and carried her bridal style down the steps towards the rest of the gang. “Shh, its ok. I got you now Kagome. Your safe now.” He tried to comfort her, which worked a little.

“Is she ok?” Miroku asked walking over to Inuyasha.

“She will be.” Was all he could respond with.

“When you killed Naraku's puppet, all of the daemons disappeared!” Shippo exclaimed, jumping up and down on Kirara's back.

“Come on, lets get her back to the village.” Sango said as they all left the palace.

 

`~`~`~`~`~`Sesshomaru and Kurai`~`~`~`~`~`

 

Sesshomaru blocked her attacks, as did she from his. He looked over his shoulder to see Inuyasha behind Naraku, about to strike. He looked back at Kurai who was still attacking him from every which direction. As soon as the puppet fell to the floor, Kurai stopped and fell as well. Sesshomaru caught her before she hit the ground and immediately began towards the western lands. He looked down at his unconscious mate and cursed the day he ever attacked her village. He could feel the anger coming from her actual soul when she first came at him at Naraku's palace. It made him fill up with anger. I am sorry, my love. He thought to himself, holding her closer to him.

Hey, sorry it took so long. School and work and all took over my schedule. And sorry if I put Sesshomaru ooc, he is a hard character to deal with. I tried my best. 7 pages ought to be enough for you. Thank you to my reviewers!!! Please review some more and I will try to make it quicker next time. Sorry, sorry, sorry!
