Last time on Sesshomaru & the Gates of Tolrona:
“I will not be beaten by a half-breed,” Sesshomaru shouted with rage. He went in for another attack with Tokijin. I decided it was time to interfere. Sango handed me my archery weaponry and I fired a purifying arrow to get his attention.
“Sesshomaru,” I shout. The arrow threw off the demonic powers of Tokijin, rendering it useless.
He turned his attention away from Inuyasha and stepped toward me. “Miko, you seem stronger.”
“What are you talking about,” I ask.
“It must be from the Key of Tsubasa. So father was right after all,” the taiyoukai thought out loud. Before a blink of an eye, he grabbed me by my waist and started to fly off, the key now in his possession. I heard them all call after me, but it was useless. I was once again Sesshomaru’s captive.
This time on Sesshomaru & the Gates of Tolrona:
Chapter 11
The Key’s Powers: The Tanoshi no Tsubasa and The New Moon
******No one’s POV******
Kagome sighed rolled over on the ground, trying to sleep. She found it hard, since Sesshomaru kept staring at her back, but she was too frightened to tell him to stop staring at her since she thought he would do something to her.
Earlier in the day, he dropped her on the ground after him kidnapping her again. He asked about the Key’s powers and she showed him the scroll she found with it. He then commanded that she wield it for protection. The rest of the day he was gone and left her with Rin and Jaken. She didn’t mind Rin, but DID mind Jaken. All day he threatened to burn her with his Staff of Two Heads while she threatened to purify him. Rin and Au-Un played together in the fields while they argued. After awhile, Sesshomaru returned and Kagome took a bath in the river to get away from him, then went to what seemed like sleep, which placed her in this present situation.
Sesshomaru now closed his eyes and rested against the trunk of a tree, much to Kagome‘s happiness, but then asked,“ What troubles you Miko,” Sesshomaru said, not even opening his eyes.
Kagome was in shock that he realized she wasn’t asleep. She sat up and stared at him. ‘Wow he looks so beautiful like that…wait, no…don’t think that. You love Inuyasha remember?!’ She blushed at her thoughts, then asked Sesshomaru,” How did you know I was awake?”
“You must be too used to my brother’s half-breed senses. I, Sesshomaru, have the more powerful senses of the full blood.” Kagome nodded at his explanation, but was angry at the fact that he called Inuyasha ‘half-breed’ again. “Now will you answer my question Miko?”
“It’s nothing really. Sometimes its hard for me to sleep,” Kagome lied, not wanting to tell him that his presence was the real reason.
“Miko, do not lie to me. I can smell your deceit,” Sesshomaru said, narrowing his now open eyes at her. He then smirked at the apparent fear he smelled off her.
“Ok, I feel uncomfortable around you, if you want to know,” she said, cringing up, thinking that he would kill her for saying that.
Surprising he took on a look of interest and said,” Very well then, I will move. You’ll need rest, for tomorrow we will not be stopping.” He walked away, leaving a shocked Kagome behind.
******Kagome’s POV******
I woke up early in the morning after surprisingly getting some sleep after Sesshomaru’s weird behavior.
“Its about time you woke you pathetic human,” croaked Jaken. I kicked the back of his head, causing him to fall over and for Rin to laugh at him.
“Face the wrath of the Staff of Two Heads,” he shouts, waving the staff around.
All of a sudden Sesshomaru’s voice comes out of nowhere and says,” That will be enough Jaken.”
Jaken suddenly stops midway and stares up frightened at his lord,” Lord Sesshomaru, I didn’t know you were back from your trip yet.” Sesshomaru just turns his back, hits Jaken on the head calmly, and Rin and me get on Au-Un to follow behind him. Behind us we hear the sound of the imp demon shouting,” Wait for me M’Lord!” This causes me to laugh.
******No One’s POV******
“Damn that bastard,” Inuyasha growls. The rest of the group follows behind in a daze. Koga is the only one that can keep up with the hanyou even without the jewel shards in his legs. The fact that Kagome was missing, made him push harder.
“Inuyasha isn’t tonight the New Moon,” Miroku shouts. Inuyasha stops immediately and runs back to Kirara. ‘Dammit he’s right! I was so uptight on protecting Kagome that I forgot about the New Moon!’
“Why are we stopping Mutt,” Koga shouted all the way ahead of the rest of them.
“I will just have to risk it. Kagome’s life is more important right now,” Inuyasha shouted, starting to run again.
“How will you possibly fight your brother and live? You need to be in top shape to defeat him. You know you’re only going to make Kagome worry. She knows about tonight too. Maybe we could rest for the day,” Sango said.
“We don’t have time to be waiting around,” Inuyasha argued desperately.
“What’s the hold up back there,” Koga demanded.
Myoga, on Inuyasha’s shoulder shouted,” Tonight is the New Moon; Lord Inuyasha’s night of being human.”
“You can all rest if you like, but I’m going to go and rescue Kagome,” Koga bellowed.
“But Koga, none of us has rested for days,” Ginta said still out of breath.
“Inuyasha is useful to us sometimes and it is his woman,” Hakkaku said, trying to reason with the irate wolf-demon.
“WHAT DO YOU MEAN SOMETIMES,” Inuyasha shouted. Both of the wolf demons ran behind Koga who hit them both in the head for ‘acting stupid.’
“C’mon Koga. Won’t Kagome want us to be in our best shape in fighting that demon. We’ll only make her worry if we push ourselves,” Ayame reasoned. Koga looked at her and sighed in defeat.
“Fine,” he grunted. “The sun better rise fast because as soon as you’re not human no more Mutt, we’re leaving.”
“I wouldn’t have it any other way,” Inuyasha said, smirking.
******Normal Kagome’s POV******
We have been in the air for most of the day and I found myself growing hungry. I was not daring to provoke Sesshomaru though. The whole time in the air, Rin kept talking about her ‘oh so special Lord Sesshomaru.’ I did not mind her, but the way she constantly talked about him, making him sound so innocent, was beginning to annoy me.
“Rin, please be quiet,” Sesshomaru said to her in an eerie calm I have gotten used to.
She smiled at him in pure innocence and said,” Yes, Lord Sesshomaru!” It made me smile at her adorableness, but at the same time relieved that she stopped talking for a bit. I did listen to how he saved her with Tensaiga and now think he isn’t as bad as I would’ve thought.
“Miko, you cannot hope for my brother to come for you tonight because of the New Moon,” Sesshomaru then said. I hadn’t thought about the New Moon. Now I was hopping that Inuyasha was not stupid enough to pursue his brother in his human form. I hope not!
I started to an overwhelming demonic aura and I guessed so was Sesshomaru because he stopped in the air.
“Why are we stopping My Lord,” asks Rin.
He didn’t answer, but instead said to Au-Un,” Take Rin to safety.” The two-headed demon nodded and flew us down to the ground. Sesshomaru drew Tokijin, still in the air.
Just then, a giant dragon youkai appears out of nowhere and they start to fight. The dragon breathes fire in his direction, but Sesshomaru was too fast for him. The taiyoukai then blasts an attack from Tokijin, but the dragon moved fast as well.
Rin pulled at my skirt until I looked down at her. “What is it Rin,” I asked.
“We should hide, Lord Sesshomaru doesn’t want Rin in danger,” the little girl responded. Jaken led the way to where Au-Un was standing.
“I don’t get it, he acts like I can’t do anything,” I complain.
Jaken smacks me on the head with the edge of his staff, shouting angrily,” Quit complaining you ungrateful human!”
That was it! I was mad. “UNGRATEFUL?! You don’t know what that word even means you ugly little toad! It was Sesshomaru who kidnapped me against my will! WHY SHOULD I GRATEFUL FOR THAT,” I huff at him.
He looked a little startled my outburst, but it didn’t stop him from him shouting back,” Lord Sesshomaru is protecting you from danger you ugly human wench! He should of let you died when he had the chance!” I snatched up his staff from his hands and proceeded to beat his head in until I heard the shrill scream of Rin. Jaken and me ran up to where the scream came from, the imp with several lumps on his head, courtesy of me. (A/N: Poor Jaken…hehehe)
We found her crouching behind the unconscious Au-Un, staring in horror at a snake demon. Jaken with the staff back in his hands, proceeded to put it on the ground and said,” Get out of the way Rin! FEEL THE FIRES FROM THE STAFF OF TWO HEADS!” Fire spewed from the mouth of one of the heads and surrounded the demon.
The demon stood there and let the fire subside, not charring him. He looks annoyed then smirks and says,” Ah, you have the Shikon Jewel! If you hand it over, I won’t have to end this little girl’s life,” pointing to the frightened Rin.
“Don’t you dare touch her you bastard,” I shout and he turns to laugh at me.
“What will you do human?”
I run to pick up the Key of Tsubasa, uncover it, and hold it out at him with of my hands because I thought its sharp point would help.
He looks at it in wide eyes and backs away,” No, it can’t be. The Key of Tsubasa!”
The key starts to glow and pulses in my grasp. The Shikon-no-Tama hovers on my necklace and glows. One by one, the different colored jewels started to glow and I shouted the first thing that came to mind: “TANOSHI NO TSUBASA!”
A ball of light gathered at the point of the key and shot out of it to the snake demon. The light surrounded him and left no trace of him behind.
I smirked at my handiwork with the help of the Key. The jewel stopped glowing around my neck. I told Rin and Jaken to stay back and then ran over to where Sesshomaru was still fighting the dragon demon. The dragon had the upper hand.
“Move out of the way Sesshomaru,” I shout. They both turn to me and saw how I glowed with the power of the jewel and the key. Sesshomaru knew when not to disagree.
“TANOSHI NO TSUBASA,” I shout and the blast destroyed the dragon just as it killed the snake demon earlier. The light stopped glowing around me and I dropped to knees from my use of strength.
“Impressive work Miko,” Sesshomaru murmured before I lost consciousness. The last thing I thought was that Inuyasha would think me more useful now.
