Chereads / Inuyasha:The third sword / Chapter 26 - Chapter 26:Encounters and Misencounters 3

Chapter 26 - Chapter 26:Encounters and Misencounters 3

A cloud of dust, dirt and pieces of trees rises from the place that was hit by Clouded Fang. This pile obstructing the view of what happened, quickly disperses, revealing the deep cut in the earth painted red and the reddish strands rising into the air. 

"We've lost him Kagome... Poor Inuyasha."

Crossing his arms and causing a few tears to fall from the corner of his eyes, the little fox accepts Inuyasha's defeat easily. 

"Shippo is right, Miss Kagome. The best thing would be to run away and consummate our love in the distance."

Appearing from somewhere in time, a young man with black hair, violet robe and black sleeves, as well as holding a staff in his hand, makes his appearance at Kagome's side. He touches his chin as he nods to himself, affirming as if it was the best of ideas what he just said. 

"Shippo and so are you, Miroku. because they're not helping him!"

Removing the fox from her head and admonishing the monk, she attempts to guide her hands to the bow on her back, though she is stopped by Miroku. 

"No, Miss Kagome. They are two animals fighting to prove who is the alpha, to interfere now would be an embarrassment to Inuyasha. Just like when he meets his brother."

Both the fox and the monk begin to slowly bob their heads up and down, leaving Kagome amazed at their current such good coordination. 

"Damn them!"

Emerging from some rubble in the distance, Inuyasha gets back to his feet without any injuries and the first thing he does is start a discussion with the group standing quite a ways away from their crash site. 

...Christopher pov...

It was a very awkward situation, like when you go to a party and you don't know anyone. Because yes, these idiots are ignoring me while rubbing their friendship in my face, making me feel like a loner. 

Feeling a vein swell in my forehead from this situation, I extended my seven tails in every possible direction, before igniting them into flames and took control of them so that they become 10cm spheres that start floating close to my body. 

Finishing that preparation, I squeeze Clouded Fang lightly and hit the ground to quickly advance towards Inuyasha, who is still in a verbal fight with his group of friends. 

*Shingg*

Sparks fly from the clash between our swords, though this one finishes him off quickly by pushing me backwards, but before he can continue with his movements, the fire spheres explode in his vicinity, leaving him staggering and taking advantage of that I stop my move away by digging my feet into the ground, then return to the attack. 

*Shingg* *Shingg* *Shingg* *Shingg* *Shingg*

Attempting to cut him diagonally with Clouded Fang, he places his sword vertically, causing the full force of my blow to spread across his blade. Following that, he thrusts his sword to the side and consequently launches a kick in the direction of my thorax, which I parried with one of my tails easily, before entangling him with it and sending him flying into the forest. 

*boom*

"Ah, ah, ah, ah... Hahaha you're tricky."

Sucking in air erratically, I feel my body getting faster with each crash, senses that I didn't use to their full potential before now start to show themselves and I'm slowly getting a better grip on the racial abilities I have. 

Well they say nothing better than a brainstorm, of course this one is fisticuffs, but it works in a very similar way if we consider it. 

"The same applies to you, I almost can't believe you're the same species as that dwarf."

Easily stepping out of some flaming trees that don't unleash smoke no matter how strange it may seem. Inuyasha compares me to that tanuki boy again, which is already starting to annoy me.

"You know I'm a fox or Kitsune, whatever you want to call it. but not a tanuki!"

"Hahaha, did you hear Shippo? Even he thinks you're a tanuki!"

Seeing how he uses my comment in a derogatory manner, connecting the dots to come to the conclusion wasn't difficult, though it does make me fall into certain doubts. 

Ignoring my existential doubts, Inuyasha once again launches an attack, even though he wasn't supposed to do anything in this situation and even wanted to watch the future development of the situation. 

*Boom*

An arrow with deep pink aura shoots out from the forest, it hits the blade of his sword and makes his attacks deflect to the side while leaving him unprotected. Taking advantage of this situation, I wrap one of my tails around his waist before throwing him towards his group, which seems to be coming this way. 

"Inuyasha!"

"It's okay, Miss Kagome. They're just small cuts that will heal with a little rest."

The schoolgirl knelt on the ground near where Inuyasha is lying, while on the other hand, the monk stands watching vigilantly in our direction while talking quietly to Kagome. 

"Are you done talking?"

Alleging the gaze of Inuyasha's group, I squeezed Clouded Fang tighter than the last few times, before putting it away and looking towards the branch on which Kikyo was standing. 

This one is wearing a brand new priestess outfit without any imperfections, she carries a wooden longbow that has a red hue and its hilt that is in the center is white in color. 

"Yes... it's time to go."

Speaking a few words, even less than the last few days, Kikyo jumps down from the tree before she begins to walk away into the flames, though she stops short when she hears a shout coming from Inuyasha's group. 

"Kikyo!"

Lifting his body from the crater he's in, Inuyasha starts running at full speed towards my direction, or more precisely to where Kikyo is. Obviously, I get out of the way, lest he see me as an enemy to defeat in order to get his perfect love or something. 

*boom*

Passing me again, an arrow with a soft pink aura hits in front of Inuyasha, sending debris flying through the air, but mostly a silent warning about not moving forward.

"Kikyo, it was Naraku, he tricked us both!"

"Kikyo!"
