Chapter 15 – The Other Side
The rumbling and falling rock had finally stopped and the King pushed his way from under the protective shields of his soldiers. He looked around and was surprised to see Tetsuya, arms raised, a protective spiritual shield emanating from him. The King had no idea that Tetsuya had that sort of power, but he was thankful that the old sage had taken it upon himself to protect the entire group.
Looking up the road the King gasped. Where just moments before the road had cut through the mountains, now a pile of rubble and loose boulders towered up at least a hundred feet.
Somewhere on the other side of the now impassable pass was his only daughter. For reasons unknown InuYasha and Yasha had run up the road in the opposite direction from everyone else. How would he ever be able to get to her?
Pulling out of his reverie the King turned to check on the status of the rest of his party. Due to Tetsuya’s protective shield there were no injuries.
Heading over to speak with the old sage the King was stunned when Tetsuya began to chuckle.
Outraged that the old sage found humor in the princess’s separation from them the King angrily demanded “What do you find so humorous old man? My daughter is trapped somewhere on the other side of this mess, what do find so amusing?”
Wishing to mollify his liege Tetsuya quickly put out a pacifying hand a replied “My liege, I am sorry; I find no humor in your separation from your child. It is just that I have been waiting for this to happen, though I must admit even I was not expecting something so spectacular.”
“What do you mean you were expecting this? Why didn’t you warn us?” was the King’s angry retort.
Tetsuya quickly continued “I am sorry I did not express myself clearly, I had no idea that there would be a landslide or anything of this nature. What I was expecting was that somehow, sometime, somewhere, we would be separated from the children. It really was to be expected. This is their quest, not ours. We would only get in the way of what must and should happen.”
Noticing the skeptical (and angry) look on the Kings face the old sage quickly continued “Please sire, don’t worry. I have every faith in InuYasha and Yasha’s ability to protect your daughter. Before the mountain came down I had time to see that the young miko had already erected a protective barrier much like my own. I am sure your child is quite safe. I humbly suggest we return to the capital city. At this point all we can do is wait for their return.”
The King was not happy, but old Tetsuya was right as usual, they would be of no help here. Sighing, the King turned and looked at the assembled party and in a voice loud enough for all to hear proclaimed “We shall start our return to the capital.” Then turning to faithful Kaede he added “With any luck my child will return not long after we do.”
