Sesshomaru’s Revenge
It had been weeks since he had Inuyasha’s body preserved in a barrier by a powerful youkai witch who managed to survive the attempted extermination. The taiyoukai tried using his sword Tenseiga, but to no avail. All the while, Sesshomaru felt the hanyou’s youkai soul hover over him. He knew exactly who had killed him by the scents he caught on his body when he found it: that accursed miko and her friends, a monk and taijiya. They and other humans believed that youkai and hanyous and those humans who were involved with them had no place in this world. They belonged to an organization called the Order of the Shikon and their purpose was to exterminate all youkai and hanyous, carrying out the ideals of their kind.
The Order had already killed almost every youkai and hanyou, from the insignificant imp to those of taiyoukai level, including the Lords and Ladies of the Northern, Eastern and Southern Lands and their families and servants. There were only a handful of youkai and hanyou left in Japan.
News of their deaths had angered him. What pushed him over the edge was when they pursued his hanyou half-brother Inuyasha after killing Rin, Sesshomaru’s human mate. They would have tried to kill Shippo, a kitsune and another member of his pack, had he traveled them on a leisurely stroll outside the Western Palace. They dared touch what was his, two members of his pack.
Inuyasha was the son of the former Inu no Taisho and human hime named Izayoi. Tragically, Izayoi died at the hands of Takemaru of Setsuna, a samurai and secret member of the Order who also killed their father. The despicable human believed that those humans who were involved with youkai betrayed humankind and deserved to die along with the youkai scum.
The hanyou managed to avenge her death by tracking down and killing the bastard slowly and painfully as Sesshomaru watched.
In retaliation, a group of powerful monks and mikos found the former Lady of the West and purified her in her own palace, though she put up one hell of a fight. Sesshomaru killed that group with one swipe of his Bakusaiga. He then buried her remains.
Sesshomaru had many youkai and hanyou servants until they fell prey to the Order. They also dared to trespass onto his home. Apparently, they had no respect for youkai nobility. The deaths of that accursed miko and her friends became the taiyoukai’s main objective now. And so, accompanied by Shippo, he sought them out. They had to pay.
Meanwhile, Kagome, Miroku and Sango had made camp for the night after destroying a youkai village. Sure, they lived peacefully and didn’t interfere with any humans. However, they still existed and had no place in this world. Youkai and hanyous were unnatural creatures and this was a human’s world. The time of these creatures were over.
But as Sango cooked dinner, she began to have second thoughts about the Order. Was it really worth killing every youkai and hanyou? Couldn’t they co-exist with them? Humans have lived side by side with them for centuries. Who decided that only humans should exist in this world? Would this come back to them? She had a feeling that it would, especially after they killed Inuyasha, Prince of the Western Lands and Rin, the newly-made Lady of the Western Lands. She had no idea how right she was when a powerful arm suddenly wrapped around her waist and an equally strong covered her mouth and dragged her away from camp.
Kagome was bathing while Miroku kept watch after their latest mission. She looked back to when she delivered the killing blow to Inuyasha, the Western Prince. It was payback for killing Kikyo, her older sister and fellow member of the Order. Unfortunately, Rin was travelling with him and tried to protect him at the cost her life. The abomination had the audacity to take away the only family she had and so he had to pay with his life.
She decided that it was time to head back to camp. The miko called Miroku and told him that she was ready to head back. However, no answer came from the monk.
“Miroku? I said we should head back. We don’t want to keep Sango waiting.” Again, silence.
“Miroku?” Kagome crept to where the monk had kept watch. She covered her mouth at the sight before her. There was Miroku lying in a pool of his blood, or what was left of him. She found his body torn to pieces, as if a wild youkai shredded him with its claws. It looked like he didn’t stand a chance against his killer. She tearfully got her bow and arrows ready and crept as silently as she could toward the camp.
As she reached the camp, another gruesome sight awaited her. Kagome found Sango’s dismembered body, her torso with a huge hole in it. It seemed like her heart was torn out of her chest.
“Good evening, Kagome, or should I say murderer.” The miko turned to see a powerfully built youkai, a kitsune by the looks of it, licking his fingers clean. How did he manage to hide his aura from her? His waist-length auburn hair was tied back in a high ponytail and his green eyes glinted with such malice.
“I will never understand how you and your friends managed to kill one of the most powerful hanyous around, if not THE most powerful hanyou. Perhaps, you killed him on his human time. You and all members of the Order signed their death warrants when you killed the Prince and new Lady of the Western Lands. It was already bad enough that you kill innocent youkai and hanyous. Anyway, your friends were entertaining to say the least and you’ll join them soon enough. But don’t worry, I, Shippo, won’t be the one to kill you. I’ll leave that to Lord Sesshomaru, since you were the one to deliver the killing blow.”
“You and Sesshomaru will not get away with this. The Order will make sure of that. As far as youkai and hanyous are concerned, NONE are innocent. If you kill me, others will take up my duty.”
Suddenly, Shippo had Kagome by the throat, tightening his grip to the point where she dropped her bow and arrows. “We shall see. And that’s Sesshomaru-SAMA to you, miko bitch. I won’t keep him waiting.” The kitsune then dragged a struggling Kagome away from camp.
Meanwhile, in another clearing, Sesshomaru sat growling in fury as the memories of Inuyasha’s body with a miko’s arrow to the chest. Perhaps, he would find a way to bring the hanyou, however, he knew it would come at a very high price. His eyes were glinting red as he caught the scents of both Shippo and his half-brother’s killer. In his mind, he could hear Inuaysha growl with impatience for his revenge. ‘Patience, Inuyasha. Vengeance will come soon. This Sesshomaru will make sure of it. I will also find a way to bring you back. Together, we can exact revenge on all those who dared to trifle with the House of the West.’
“Here, Sesshomaru-sama. I’ve taken care of her two friends. They were for the most part very entertaining.”
“Excellent, Shippo. You can hand her over. I’m sure Inuyasha would enjoy watching the bitch die.” Sesshomaru grabbed her by throat, his claws digging into her skin, drawing blood. Kagome struggled and tried to purify him, but to no avail. She herself never fought a youkai of his caliber.
Sesshomaru would have none of that. And so, he grabbed her right arm and ripped it clean off. Kagome let out bone-chilling scream of pain, trying to stem the bleeding with her other arm. Shippo had a very malicious grin on his face. He was sure that Inuyasha was enjoying this. The bitch was finally going to pay for killing him and the kitsune had a front row seat.
“DAMN YOU, YOUKAI STRAIGHT TO HELL!!!!!! YOU FUCKING BASTARD!!!!!! YOU’LL BOTH PAY FOR DOING THIS TO ME!!!!”
“My, my, such language! And you call yourself a miko. That was for killing the House of the South and all those youkai and hanyou who were subject to their rule.”
“But I had nothing to do with killing the ruling Southern family. Other members of the Order did that. I DID NOT KILL THEM!!!!!!!!!!!”
“It matters not, miko. You will serve as an example to that despicable Order you so serve. Hmm, let’s see.” Sesshomaru looked over at her left arm. “Just so you can’t purify anyone, I’ll be taking this as well.” He then ripped off her other arm, causing her to let out that same blood-curdling scream. “This is for the House of the East and its youkai and hanyou subjects your Order killed.”
“I DIDN’T KILL THEM EITHER!!!!! WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS?!!!!!!!!!!!”
“Your people are responsible for trying to kill my kind and Inuyasha’s kind. Their blood is on your hands, especially those youkai villagers.”
“What are you talking about? Youkai and hanyou have no place in this world. Don’t you understand? YOU DON’T BELONG WITH HUMANS!!!!!!”
“Who decided that? Other humans as narrow-minded as you? Do you have any idea that WE were on this earth longer than you pathetic humans? For a long time, this Sesshomaru has detested your kind for being greedy, destroying the planet that gave you life until two humans became part of his family; Inuyasha’s mother, Izayoi and my mate Rin, whom you so brutally murdered.”
Despite having both arms ripped off, Kagome continued to be defiant. “That hanyou bastard deserved to die after he killed Kikyo! Your supposed mate would still be alive if she didn’t get involved with a vile youkai like you. As I said, you and your kind have no place in this changing world. The time of youkai and hanyou has long passed. This world belongs to the humans now.”
Sesshomaru growled. “This Sesshomaru has had enough of your prattling, miko.” And so, the taiyoukai dug his claws deeper into her bleeding throat, letting loose his poison. This caused Kagome to choke as her throat began to burn from the inside out. Shippo knew exactly what was going on. The taiyoukai was destroying her vocal cords so neither youkai would have to hear the bitch’s mouth as he dropped her onto the ground.
The burning sensation gave way to hoarseness as Kagome coughed. Kagome tried to speak, but couldn’t. She tried again, but to no avail. The miko glared at Sesshomaru as if to ask what he did to her now.
“If you were wondering what this Sesshomaru did to you, another thing was taken from you. That’s right. You can no longer speak. The poison that seeped out of my claws went straight for your vocal cords. No one can hear you scream either.”
Kagome’s eyes widened in fear as she struggled to get up off the ground. After all, she lost both arms to Sesshomaru’s claws. When she was finally on her feet, the miko backed away from the youkai and turned to run. Sesshomaru smirked at her futile attempt to escape. With that, he released his poison whip and snapped it twice. The taiyoukai knew Inuyasha was enjoying the torture show. He could hear the hanyou soul turned youkai soul laugh in his mind. ‘This Sesshomaru knows you are enjoying this, Inuyasha. I wonder if I should prolong her suffering or end it here.’
Something, namely someone, was screaming at Sesshomaru to make her suffer even more. The taiyoukai sauntered to where Kagome was; sprawled only a few feet away with her legs cut off. He also caught the scent of tears in the air and realized that the miko was crying.
Shippo caught up with Sesshomaru and found Kagome on her back with tears in her eyes. Sesshomaru shook her head in mock pity. “Aw, is the miko crying? Tell me, where were your tears for all those with youkai you killed? Where were your tears for the Houses of the North, East, South and my house, the House of the West? No, this Sesshomaru has no pity for you just there was no pity for those you and your Order murdered. Oh, yes, the days of the Order of the Shikon are numbered.”
Sesshomaru proceeded to run his claws across both cheeks and splattered poison into her eyes, rendering her blind. Soon, both breasts were shredded away. The rest of her torso was badly scratched. Then he looked down at her lower torso, where her womanhood was and dug his claws deep into her lower torso and ripped out her uterus and her ovaries.
He looked at them and then at the mutilated miko. “You won’t need these where this Sesshomaru will send you.” The taiyoukai let out a rather sadistic chuckle. With a smile on his face that the miko would never see, he plunged his claws into her chest, ripping out her heart. Blood kept spurting out of Kagome’s mouth and her eye sockets. What was left of her body flopped around like a fish out of water for several moments before it stilled.
Sesshomaru still held Kagome’s heart and took a bite out of it. He proceeded to completely devour her heart, licking the blood off his fingers. Shippo smiled with satisfaction at the carnage his Lord had created and ripped Kagome’s head from what was left of her body. “Serves the miko bitch right.”
“Let’s go. Our work is not yet done. We have to bring Inuyasha back.”
“But you do know he won’t be a hanyou if we bring him back. He’ll be a full youkai since he was murdered on his human night.”
“True, he’ll be better. Besides, he has kept his youkai side under control with this Sesshomaru’s training.”
“You’re right.” And with that, they returned to the Western Palace. The youkai witch cast a spell to bring Inuyasha’s soul back into his body. She told Sesshomaru and Shippo to stand back as his aura flared out, almost filling the room.
His body already underwent several changes. The hanyou turned youkai roared out as purple jagged stripes identical to their father’s formed on his cheeks. His claws and fangs grew longer. His eyes became a deep crimson with blue eyes. It wasn’t long before his eyes reverted to the familiar amber.
Sesshomaru cautiously approached the newly revived youkai. “Inuyasha?”
Inuyasha looked at Sesshomaru and grinned. He then broke out into a laugh. “That was one hell of a show, Sesshomaru. That bitch got exactly what she deserved; her and her cronies. You put on a great show as well, Shippo.”
“Thanks. Welcome back to the land of the living.”
“Glad to be back. Don’t we have an organization to destroy?”
“Of course, we must first get some rest. Then we seek and destroy the Order of the Shikon.” Sesshomaru then headed to his chambers, but not before putting Kagome’s head on a pike as a trophy outside.
The next day, Sesshomaru, Inuyasha, and Shippo started their journey. They had come across several members of the Order on a mission to exterminating another youkai village. They completely decimated those members.
The methodical destruction of the Order was complete within several months as there were many members with the help of Kouga, Ayame and what was left of both wolf tribes. The youkai witch who had brought Inuyasha from the dead became the new Lady of the Western Lands. She said a little prayer for both her predecessors to find peace in the afterlife.
Inuyasha tracked down Shiori, who was hiding with her mother, and made her his mate. He had taken over the Southern Lands while Shippo mated with Souten and ruled over the Northern Lands. Kouga and Ayame ruled the Eastern Lands. The humans and those with youkai blood managed to co-exist without any interference.
All was okay in the world, but never perfect.
