Sango's Vengeance

 

 

 

“you are pathetic!” Sango roared, striking her whip inches from Inuyasha's head. The tree above him cracked and fell, the hanyou barely avoiding it. “And weak!” She screamed, her tail thrashing as he tried to avoid her advances.

 

Inuyasha merely continued to run as fast as he could, Tetsusaiga at his side. He paused, and Sango brought her tail down at his head. He leapt into the air, the snake's tail driving deep into the soil. Inuyasha leapt onto it, running upon the scaly appendage. Sango let out a roar, thrashing her body. Inuyasha took a jump, sheathing his sword and grabbing onto Sango's waist, bringing his elbow into her nose, breaking it. She screamed, blood pouring out of the wound.

 

“You can't hit a girl!”

 

“You aren't a girl anymore!”

 

“Pay attention to this Kirara.” The voice said calmly. “Sango is no longer a woman, merely because of what has happened to her? Is it because she is no longer fighting with Inuyasha, of use to him, that makes her worth hitting, which we know is wrong?”

 

The kitsume shook her head, trying to ignore the voice.

 

“Or is it because she is now a demon…just like you. That could be you Kirara…he could be killing you.”

 

Sango let out a growl as she reached behind her back and gave Inuyasha a toss, sending him into the spring. She cracked her neck, and paused as she felt the blood moving back INTO her body.

 

“I knew a could heal…” She whispered. “…but I shouldn't this quick.” She shrugged it off and dove into the water, pinning Inuyasha down. He tried to hold his breath, but it seemed as if Sango had a thousand hands, each holding him down. “OW!” Sango burst from the waves, sucking on her finger where the hanyou had bit her.

 

Inuyasha grinned. “It's going to take more then that to beat me…what the hell happened to your nose?”

 

Sango shrugged. “It healed.”

 

“HOW?!” He yelled, avoiding her whip.

 

“Its because of Naraku”

 

Both paused as Ryu emerged from the trees, Kirara in his hands. She purred as he itched her ears. Inuyasha growled, but Sango's eyes lit up happily as she rushed over and took the kitty, nuzzling it to her cheek.

 

“How is it because of Naraku?” Inuyasha asked.

 

“Seems our jewels gave us a new power.” Ryu said rather lazily. “When we ate up the human that was Naraku, we gained his regenerating properties.” He burped and Sango giggled.

 

“I just did that!”

 

Ryu nodded. “I have been all night. Hate to think what we would be doing if we had eaten his demon skin too!” The two laughed, Kirara licking her paws clean, ignoring Inuyasha's anger at the moment.

 

“This has been fun, but if you could leave us be Ryu, I have a jewel to remove from Sango.”

 

“I don't think so my dear boy.” Ryu said. “Sango, do you want the jewel removed.”

 

“Nope!” She giggled. “I want to play with Kirara!”

 

“Then let's go.” Ryu said turning back to the forest.

 

“WIND SCAR!”

 

Sango screamed as the blast hit her, sending her to the ground, a massive gash in her back. Inuyasha leapt and grabbed her by the hair, raising her neck up so he could see the faint glow of the jewel shard, just below her skin.

 

“This will only hurt a moment Sango, then you will be free of their…” He screamed suddenly, and was tossed into the water. He gripped his side, feeling the blood leak out of the many wounds, as Kirara growled. She had transformed into her demon mood, blood dripping down her face.

 

Ryu smirked and took a jewel shard out, of his robe, gently pressing it into her forehead. She growled as she doubled in size, making it easy for him to lift Sango onto the monstrous cat's back.

”It's been fun Inuyasha, but we must be going.” He leapt onto Kirara and petted her side. “And tell Kagome…she's next.”

 

And with that, Kirara raced forward, leaving Inuyasha alone. He grunted, grabbed the bag of herbs, and ran back to Kaede's hut.

“Tree!”

 

“Demon!”

 

“Tree!”

 

“Demon!”

 

Sesshomaru sighed, pausing to look at Rin and Jaken. The little girl and the toad demon were standing next to a tree, arguing with each other. He let out another siigh, turned slowly and walked back to them, his face remaining still.

 

“Jaken, what is going on?”

 

“Lord Sesshomaru, rin here believes that this tree is a demon.”

 

“It is Sesshomaru-sama!” Rin shouted. “I saw it move! Master Jaken-sama just didn't see it.”

 

The demon frowned. “I didn't see it move because it never moved!”

 

Before Rin could say a word, 10 long, sharp claws flew out of the forest and struck the tree. It let out a scream and fell, dead, blood oozing out of it's wounds. Jaken stood, slack jawed as Rin smiled.

 

“Told you.”

 

“Jaken! Get Rin away from here, now.” Sesshomaru said quietly, his eyes fixed on the forest. The toad demon lead the little girl away as the demon lord drew his sword. “Come on out, I know you are there.”

 

Neko smiled as she strolled into the clearing, her skin glistening under the Moon's glow. She purred, stretching, showing off her assets. “Evening Sesshomaru, Lord of the West. I am Neko, Lordess of the East. I and my clan offer our hand in friendship to you.”

 

Sesshomaru didn't even react. “A pretty gesture, why should I care?”

 

“Because we are the ones that killed Naraku.”

 

To this Sesshomaru hid his surprise he had not heard of the demon's death…and by another group of demons, no less. “What do you want from me?”

 

“My clan has declared war on humanity, as well as your brother, Inuyasha. You hold a grudge against him, no?” Sesshomaru merely nodded. “Were you to join us, we would split the spoils of war, and allow you to rid the world of the hanyou as you wish. All we wish is your loyalty.” She paused, licking her lips. “I see you have taken a human servant. She will have a place in our castles.”

 

Sesshomaru drew his sword. Neko raised an eyebrow as he pointed it at her neck. “I work for no group. Nor will any that travel with me. Now leave, demoness, and allow me to go on my way.”

 

Neko shrugged. “So suit yourself.” She turned, then leapt, her claws raised, striking the Lord of the West in the side.
