InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ The Evil Eye, The Serpent's Tongue ❯ Neko reveal! Ryu’s trap unleashed ( Chapter 4 )

Neko reveal! Ryu's trap unleashed.

 

 

“I have you now!” Inuyasha shouted, driving his blade down. Ryu barely managed to leap out of the way before the weapon struck him, tumbling into a building. He let out a moan and stood up, glaring at the hanyou warrior. “You are going to pay for the lives you ended today.” Inuyasha held up his hand. “I will tear you to shreds with my own claws!”

 

That's when Inuyasha was grabbed. His eyes went wide as he was held in the air, the feminine claw gripping his throat. He struggled, trying to gasp, finding himself rising higher and higher, till he was face to face with the most attractive demoness he had seen. Sure, she was a giant cat and was trying to kill him, but she was still good looking.

 

“You call those little things claws?” She said, glaring at him. Her hand tightened and Inuyasha let out a squeak. “These are claws!”

 

“AAA!”

 

Inuyasha found himself in the dirt, a long trail leading to where the cat demon stood. The rest of his friends gathered around him to take in the new demon.

 

Neko had certainly used the jewel to it's worth. She now stood 10 feet tall, her muscles showing off in all the right places. Her body was still feminine, incredibly so, yet people could tell she had strength. It looked like she could mate with a jaguar, or at least force one too. She flexed her hand, the long, sharp black claws glistened, shinnying in the light of Ryu's fires. Her eyes had changed from their cat-like appearance to full red. She smiled, revealing rows of sharp teeth.

 

Ryu flew over and hovered by her head. She gave him a kiss and then turned back to the group.

 

“May I present Lady Neko, your judge, jury and executioner.”

 

Neko snarled, glaring down at all of them, watching them with contempt. This would be too easy.

 

^&^&^&^

 

“Shit.” Inuyasha said, staring up at the demoness. “How the hell did a demon get that big?”

 

“It's the shard.” Miroku replied. “She used it to make herself…into that!”

 

Kagome took a step back, terrified of the monster before her. “Guys…we could barely beat the dragon…and the cat has the jewel. I think we need to turn back, regroup.”

 

“I agree with Kagome!” Shippo said, rolling into a ball. “Let's get out of here!”

 

“We can't leave, not yet.” Miroku replied. “They already hurt innocent people. If they are allowed to get away…they will only hurt more innocent villagers. We have to fight, right Sango?” Sango didn't say a word. She sat there, dumbstruck. “Sango!”

 

She jumped, and shook her head, closing her eyes.

 

I don't want to be here. I shouldn't be here…I…I could endanger them. She watched as Ryu lowered his eyes, glaring at her. I am throwing them off. They are too worried about me…I…I…

 

Sango leapt off Kirara's back, running as fast as she could. She heard her friends calling for her, but she blocked them out. Her eyes were closed, tears burning her cheeks. She had to get away, get away from the dragon with that voice, that voice that haunted her with every step. She just wanted to hide and let the world take care of itself. She didn't want to be near her friends, risk their lives. She was risking them, her being there. She knew…if she stayed, they would die.

 

But most of all, she needed to be away from that place. The sooner…the better.

 

^&^&^&^

 

“Sango!” Kagome screamed. She watched in horror as her friend spirited away. “Sango, what's wrong!”

 

Inuyasha growled and looked at the two demons. “I don't what you did to her, but you are going to pay!”

 

“inuyasha, we have to go! We can't risk Sango hurting herself.” Kagome said. “We have to…”

 

“I am finishing this!” Inuyasha drew Tetsusaiga in front of his face as he rushed Neko.

 

She smiled and raised a claw. “I warned you about my claws.” Her hand flexed, and her nails shot out, flying right at him. Inuyasha leapt and dove, doing his best to avoid the razor sharp claws flying at him. Finally, he managed to get near enough, and growled.

 

“WIND SCAR!”

 

Neko let out a cry as the attack hit, sending her backwards. She landed hard, and fired another round of her nails, even as blood poured out of the large wound on her chest. She was going to kill the hanyou this time…

 

“AAA!” Inuyasha screamed, a nail driving into his shoulder. He fell back, once again his friends surrounding him.

 

“Leave now.” Ryu said with a smirk. “Before something really bad happens.”

 

Kagome had had enough of those two, and grabbed her bow, threading an arrow and aiming it at Ryu's head.

 

“You leave!” She shouted. “Or something bad is going to happen.”

 

Ryu nodded. “Fair enough. I only have one more thing to do before we leave.” With that, he leapt into the air, diving bombing right at Kagome. She screamed in fright and began to arrows as quick as she could, but Ryu was too fast. Miroku was busy trying to help Inuyasha up to do anything but call her name. He was on her in a second, claws raised…and then flying back to Neko's side.

 

She blinked confused, till her hand flew to her neck. The thread...that held the container they were using to hold the shards…

 

Ryu held up the item, dangling it for all to see. Kagome could hear Inuyasha cursing, and she felt like doing the same.

 

Oh god…he has the shards…he has all our shards! Her mind wailed.

 

“And now, it's time to go.” He flexed his wings and began to beat them.

 

“Brace yourselves!” Miroku screamed, but it was too late. The gale force winds picked them all up and sent them flying through the air, tumbling and turning as they went.

 

Kagome screamed as the earth finally began to rush at her, covering her eyes…

 

“We got you Kagome!” Shippo cried. Kagome blinked, and looked up to see that Kirara had grabbed her by the skirt, and was gently lowering her down. Inuyasha and Miroku were on Kirara's back already, frowning. Kagome could see they had been blown far from the village, and also could make out a speck on the horizon. The dragon demon, most likely.

 

“Damn it!” Inuyasha cursed. “Damn damn damn!”

 

“Inuyasha, it will be ok.”

 

“How will it be ok Kagome?” Inuyasha snapped back. “We just got our asses handed to us by two demons, they stole the shards, and Sango is missing. Things aren't ok. They are bad, really really bad!”

 

“I know that!” She shouted, glad her feet were on the ground. “I was just trying to lighten the mood. You know, not always be so uptight.”

 

“Kagome, this is not the time to have one of your damn cheery, happy moments. It's time to go chase after those two and get back our…ow!” Inuyasha cursed as Miroku removed the nail from the hanyou's chest. “do you have to do that now?”

 

“And risk it being poisonous?” the monk asked.

 

Inuyasha grumbled.

 

“Hey guys!” Shippo called out, hopping up and down. “come here, quick!”

 

“What is it this time, you draw another picture?” Inuyasha asked. “Buzz of shorty!'

 

“SIT!”

 

“Damn it woman!” Inuyasha screamed, pulling grass out of his mouth. He looked over to see Kirara turn back to her kitty form and lick his forehead. “ya ya, I'm fine.” He sat up to see Kagome and Miroku crowded around something near a tree. Shippo seemed super upset.

 

“what is it?” He asked, coming closer. He peered over their shoulders and paused. It was a woman, curled up in a ball, her face red and soaked from tears. She had her arms around her knees and kept on sniffing, a sob coming out once and a while. Her entire body was shaking with fear as she tried to push herself away from them, wishing she could merge with the tree and be done with it.

 

It was Sango.
