Rurouni Kenshin Fan Fiction / InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ The well started it all... ❯ ...the fight i guess ( Chapter 3 )

Midnight-Kitsune: Lol. Am I THAT transparent? You'll see if he comes or not! :) Thanx for reviewing! :)

RavenCrow16: Nice to see you again! Lol.

Neikochan9097: THANK U SO MUCH for telling me the real names. Whew. I'm glad I have them now. I was a little worried about that. The only other name I could spell with out messing it up was Feudal Era so I spelled that instead. And… to your other question… I guess I'm going for a Kurama type thing? Okay if you don't get this explanation it's my fault entirely so here goes. *takes deep breath* Battousai is like an alternate part of Kenshin or… a personality he had to acquire to accept his new way of life and to cope with killing ppl everyday. And then, I guess he just shed it when he decided to not kill because that's what Battousai was for… am I making sense cuz I'm just taking this from the top of my head… Newayz Battousai is now like that part of you that always has a second opinion. Or that part of you that wants to torment you with the truth. And around Kagome, since Battousai actually approves, he is even more…active than before. *sighs* no I don't think I've made any sense. Why do I even try to put my thoughts on paper! *throws hands in air disgusted with self* tell me if you understood that or not PLEASE! oh and don't flame me neone who reads this little explanation because I just kinda made it up for this story… hehe *backs away slowly*

Disclaimer: *wakes up groggily from keyboard* wha… what happened? Oh… yeah, disclaimer. Don't own either of them. Kay? Kay! Nighty night now… *drops head back on keyboard* ka;jdkjf

Inuyasha led the way to his chosen battleground. The three walked in a solemn line, no one talking, all lost in thought. Around them were the sounds of the forest. Squirrels chirped and birds sang, not knowing what was going to happen in their own home. Trees rustled with every whisper of wind and the flowers smiled up at them. It was a nice day for a fight…

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Kenshin could feel the confidence radiating off of the Dog boy. He didn't exactly know how fast or strong this Inuyasha was but he was sure that he could defeat him without the aid of Battousai. He knew his alter ego would love to have a chance at this insulting hanyou but it was against his vow to kill and after ten years of following it he wasn't going to let some stupid fight ruin it.

He tried to size Inuyasha up and almost smiled at the frustration Battousai emitted when he got nothing from the assessment. 'Well, I beat that one bird thing while he couldn't. Let that be assessment enough' Kenshin's smile turned devilish as he gave a sidelong glance at Kagome. A frown had marred her beautiful face with worry. She was such a caring soul. Reminded him a lot of Kaoru but Kaoru tended to be slightly violent.

'Violent! She acts like she can take you on sometimes! She is insolent and too dominating.' Did you never think that maybe that's why I was around her? His inquiry was met with silence. Kenshin almost chuckled out loud but he knew how that would look. Finally they reached a clearing that looked almost customized for fighting.

There were wooden benches at the sides of the cut grass. Kenshin and Kagome sweat dropped a little at that. The outer grass was tall but there was a clearing of cut grass that was the size, roughly, of a baseball stadium. The trees beyond the tall grass were dark and mysterious even though they had just come from there. It made it seem as if there was a wall of darkness that kept people in. The tops of the trees blended and merged together.

Kagome stared in disbelief. She had never come across this place! But she didn't usually go exploring because she didn't know how to take care of herself and always got in trouble. Unknowingly she had repeated the words Inuyasha told her every time he caught her trying to explore. She looked towards the two opponents. Inuyasha was standing cockily at one side while Kenshin crouched into a fighting position. She didn't know how long this was going to take so she sat down on the smooth wooden bench.

Inuyasha stood there thinking that it would take awhile for this mere human to even get to the other side of the battleground and became slack jawed when Kenshin disappeared before his eyes. Before he could crouch in a defensive position for the attack he was slammed back with the force of Kenshin's blow. He stood there, over Inuyasha's lying form, violet eyes and swirling amber, with the coldest face Inuyasha ever hoped he would see.

"Get up. And maybe next time you won't underestimate me." Unnervingly Kenshin's voice was light and cheerful, belying the cold and calculating look on his face. Inuyasha slowly got up and winced at the pain in his chest. A reverse blade sword had done that to him! He could feel it bruising already and almost grimaced at the knowledge.

He wasn't sure if he would come out of this still looking pretty. He pulled tetsaiga (Neikochan help! Sp? Lol.) out slowly, watching to see the wonder that usually went on everyone's face when they watched the sword turn into a large fang. To Inuyasha's disappointment Kenshin showed nothing, you would think he saw swords transforming everyday!

Kenshin watched the sword transform and mentally shrugged. Hey, he was in Sengoku Jidai, with a dog demon, a miko, and he had time traveled in a stone well. He was pretty sure surprises were forever ruined for him now. He watched with amazement as Inuyasha swung the sword at his head. You got to be kidding me. Did he not see me go across the whole battleground without him knowing or seeing! And he actually thought he could beat him with slow movements like that.

He almost laughed out loud as Inuyasha's sword almost hit him. He was going to have fun in this fight so he had to make it look like Inuyasha was putting him through his paces. He barely dodged attack after attack, and gave him a light tap with his sword at last. Inuyasha turned disbelieving eyes at him and Kenshin knew, by the anger in his aura, that he had figured out Kenshin had been playing with him.

How dare this… this… pipsqueak play with him! Inuyasha knew that compared to Kenshin's first hit that second hit couldn't even be considered as such.

"Fight me! Stop playing around, if your going to defeat me defeat me already." Inuyasha snarled the last bit but he knew now that this 'mere' human could probably defeat him. Kenshin stood for a while and then nodded, coming to a decision.

"I am truly sorry for deceiving you Inuyasha. I will indeed finish it." Kenshin moved forward fluidly and then disappeared again. Inuyasha stood alert, wondering where he would be coming from. How can he be so damn quiet! Inuyasha couldn't even here the baka's footsteps! Inuyasha's nonexistent respect for Kenshin became existent. He felt the rush of wind from behind him and tried to turn to block but was knocked out cold from the blow to the neck. He fell unconsciously to the ground knowing he was beaten.

Kagome watched Kenshin while he stood there over Inuyasha's prone body. He turned to the astonished gaze of Kagome and smirked at the amazement. He walked towards her slowly, he could almost see her heart beating faster. Then the ground came up to meet him as something hit him from behind.

AN: oh uh! Lol. who DARE hit Kenshin! Wat will happen now? He beat Inuyasha like THAT! Or did he? How come kenshin didn't sense him? Was it because he was entranced by kagome? Hehehehe.
