He was breathtaking. Awe-inspiring. Beautiful.

But most of all, he was lethal.

His whip was strikingly green in colour, almost yellow, the intense colour matched by the potent smell of acid and burning flesh. It rendered bodies into ribbons of tattered flesh, it wrenched souls from their earthly shells and it inspired fear in the hearts of youkai and humans alike. The grace with which he wielded this deadly extension of his yoki was simply stunning, to the point of terror.

Kagome watched, shocked into stillness by the impassive mask that was his face, his irritation belied by the glint in his golden eyes and the telltale glow from his raised hand. With minimal effort, the daiyoukai spun, momentum building and his opponents were shredded as soon as they approached, leaving nothing more than scattered remains.

He stopped, and not a hair was out of place, nor was there a single speck of blood on his form.

Perfection.

Sharp eyes met her stunned ones. With a crack of his fingers, the whip disappeared, but the message in his gaze was clear. If she displeased him in any way, death would come on swift wings. 

Shivering, the miko followed along behind him, admiration and horror coiling around her rapidly beating heart.
