A Storm Is Coming

It looks like a storm is coming this way….

The dark sky hung over them and at the sound of thunder, they knew they had to get somewhere safe quickly. Lightning crackled then in a few seconds thunder sounded.

The rainfall became more intense, and the droplets were drumming on the ground. A huffing wind rose up and stirred the leaves on the trees.

"Guys, shouldn't we wait for Kagome?" the fox demon asked worriedly.

In the distance were a few yokai with long, eel and insect-like features flying through the hidden parts of the Forrest.

" Kikyo's soul collectors." InuYasha noticed almost immediately and had a really bad feeling while the others followed right behind him.

"MASTER KIKYO!"

A young priestess limped away from the mountains severely injured. Her clothes were damage and the attacks penetrated through her skin, showing her bare bones. She could feel her body becoming weaker then heard footsteps approaching towards her. There was not an ounce of strength left and collapse, but InuYasha caught her before her body hit the ground.

Kotori stepped back as felt the half-demon run past her. At that moment, her chest tightens up. She looked towards the horizon and the mountain surrounded by dark colored clouds. There was an swirl of emotions dwelling inside of her trying to crawl out violently, her body pulsed.." Stay here and protect Master Kikyo! " She yelled and quickly arranged her weapons.

"Without a doubt, this is Naraku doing." InuYasha spoke.

" Ko, you shouldn't go there alone, it's dangerous" The demon slayer said.

"I'm just going scout the area and come up with a plan while we wait for Kagome to come back, okay? I promise I will not do anything stupid." Kotori reassured and released any doubt that the others might've had. She turned around and her expression changed and became more serious. She ran at high speed with the only thought of killing the person who harmed her mentor.

" Ko, please be careful!" the young fox demon shouted, worried.

" How about that, Lady Kikyo?" Naraku chuckled evilly.

In the corner of the basement, the priestess was chained against her will. She stared into the orb then closed her eyes in defeat. She and everyone else fell victim to Naraku's evil scheme. It was painful for her to watch little Ko run straight into the enemy territory aimlessly. " Don't kill her! She's Hiso daughter."

" I am not going to kill her, I'm going to break her!" He said and squeezed the jewel in his hand, as a black light escaped from the cracks of his finger.

The memories for 50 years ago still haunt InuYasha in his dreams. The flames nearly engulfed him and suddenly there was a familiar voice. It was like he was stuck in a never ending nightmare.

" Die, InuYasha!"

Those words engraved into his heart. He jumped and the arrowed piece his chest bounding him to the tree as he reached his hand towards the priestess with nothing but hatred and betrayal in her eyes. In a flash, the fond time that they spend together slowly begin to fade. His heart would beat painfully. In the split second, he saw Kotori with tears forming in her eyes then she dispersed.

InuYasha's eyes opened immediately, and his heart raced. He stood up," Hey, watch over Kikyo while I am away." He rushed out the hut before his companions could even respond to him.

As Kotori walked closer towards the barrier several cuts appeared on her arms and legs, it happened incredibly fast.

A little boy fell from the sky and landed on his feet with shoulder length black hair and red eyes." Auntie, I cannot let you go beyond these walls." He said sounding adorable but his expression was deadly. He looked no young then ten years old.

Kotori thought it was some sort of prank and kneel down to the little boy height." Are you lost little one? This place is very bad. How about I help you find your mommy?" She suggested and said kindly.

" You aren't funny, Auntie!"

As the little boy wield the oddly shape sword, Kotori vision her instant death seconds prior and dodged it. She lifted her head at this boy and her hands were trembling in fear. She had no time for games and reached for her sword.

Suddenly, he appeared in front of her.

" He's fast!"

The two swords clashed against over and over.

" I will not let you find Kikyo or Naraku will punished me!"

" W-Wait?" Kotori lifted up head in confusion." Is the Kikyo with InuYasha and others are fake?"

" Oppsy, I said to much." The little boy covered his mouth, as if it was something innocent being covered up.

" I don't have time to waste on you! I need to find Kikyo and confront Naraku. I must defeat everyone, so InuYasha and the others don't get hurt. I might protect them at all costs, it's the least I could do for everything I put them through." She thought then out of nowhere her sword transformed.

A slow smile builds as the surprise sinks in.

Her eyes slowly scarlet and her blood pumped with exhilaration.
