A battle with Douma

Scar/Battle with Douma

Long ago, when Kagome was only 13 years old, she was killed along with her older sister Kanae by Uppermoon Two, Douma. Kagome was transformed into a half-demon and given a second chance at life. She vowed to get revenge for her lost sister by slaughtering Douma. Now she's 15, and on her way back to the butterfly mansion after a mission. She wandered down a path that seemed to be calling to her. "Kaw! Kaw! Danger ahead! Ms. Kocho please refrain from going down there. Kaw!" Kagome's crow, Nazuna, circled above her, warning her about the danger ahead. "Psh, as if. If it's a demon I'll kill it!" She let out a low growl as she started walking down the path. Her fox ears swiveled around as she listened for the faintest of sound. When she walked out into the clearing she froze, her eyes widened.

"Oh hello there!~ I knew you'd find me here...~"

It was him....the man who killed her sister....Uppermoon two, Douma.

"So you're stalking me, you bastard?!" Kagome unsheathed her Katana. "I'LL KILL YOU!" Without any warning or hesitation, she lunged at him quickly. "Glitched breathing...14th form...FOX-FIRE!" Her blade sparked up in flames, and some sort of rainbow aura swirled through the flames.

Douma, slightly taken aback, unsheathes his claws. "Well, well...how interesting!~" He smiled with a sadistic look, clearly looking forward to this battle.

"SHUT THE HELL UP!" Kagome sliced at his arm, slicing it clean off. Before he'd have the chance to regenerate it she turned mid-air and wrapped her tail around his chest as she attempted to cut off his neck. She underestimated just how quickly Upper-rank Demons regenerate, Douma had grabbed her scruff with one hand and her tail with the other.

"You really are stronger than I thought...but not strong enough~" He pulled her off and threw her into a tree.

"GAH-" Kagome had the wind knocked out of her, but she quickly recovered just in time to escape his next attack. Kagome clutched her blade and took rapid swings at him, only managing to leave a few cuts on his skin, which just healed instantly.

"My, my...~ You're so persistent you know, how cute! You really are just like your big sisters, er, I mean just the one sister now-"

Kagome froze, dropping her Katana. "Shut up..." Her claws unsheathed, "DON'T YOU DARE BRING KANAE UP!" Her crimson eyes started glowing, and her pupils changed from slits to the kanji for 'Glitched'. "I'LL FUCKING KILL YOU FOR WHAT YOU DID!" Her tail lashed.

"What..?~ Mad that I killed your sister?~" Douma chuckled as that sadistic smile still on his face.

Kagome growled, baring her fangs at him. "JUST SHUT THE FUCK UP!" She moved quickly to his side and dug her claws into his side. Douma didn't even flinch as he grabbed her scruff yet again and threw her, but this time Kagome turned mid-air, pushing herself off the tree, and knocked Douma to the ground.

"Now that was clever!~" Douma put his hand on her arm, and ice started forming on her arm.

"What the fu-" Kagome was cut off by Douma slamming her into the ground after pushing her off himself.

"Cool right?~ It's my blood demon art...~" He chuckled, "I'm sure you have one too, right? I mean, a half-demon like yourself must have something up her sleeve!~"

Kagome struggled under him, she dug her claws into his chest. "I'LL KILL YOU!" She sunk her fangs into his neck in an attempt to rip off his head.

"Now that's just mean..." Douma pressed himself harder against her.

Kagome kicked him off and jumped back, snarling at him as black flames swirled around her hands.

"Oh?~ Is that your blood demon art?" Douma stood up. "How interesting...~"

Kagome's tail lashed with pure rage. She started hyperventilating as her whole body shook. "That's it...I'm not playing around anymore..." Black flames swirled around her, blocking her from sight, when the flames faded away Kagome was standing there in her fox form. A large black fox with 20 tails and eyes rapidly changing through all the colors, just like her Katana's blade. It stared down at Douma, fangs bared, claws unsheathed, and snarling.

"Now uh, that's new-" Douma took a slight step back before charging at her again. The two fought for a long time...Kagome might be able to regenerate with the demon abilities she has, but it's still limited to how many injuries she can heal.

She used fire and water to create a mist as she slipped behind some large rocks, Blood dripped down her arms and chest. "Shit..." She mumbled to herself, pulling out a piece of paper. She used her own blood and the tip of her claw to write out a note.

"To whoever is available,

I've made a huge mistake...I thought I was strong enough to kill Uppermoon Two, Douma...But I was so wrong. I can't keep fighting much longer...Please, Please send help, Anyone will do...I just can't keep this up. As of now, I'm hiding behind some rocks, he'll most likely find me any moment now...My crow will show you the way.

-The Glitched Hashira

Kagome Kocho."

And with that, Kagome tied the note to her crow. It flew off towards the nearest Hashira's location, and Kagome prayed they'd make it in time.

"I've found you!~" Douma attacked her in a swift motion. Kagome grabbed his wrist and threw him back, then attacked him with her flames.

Before she could move, Douma attacked her yet again, but this time with one of his fans...slicing right down her right eye. A jagged line across her right eye gushed with blood, her vision in that eye replaced with a dark bloody red.

She let out a pained yell. "FUCK!-" She jumped back and held her eye, it was still there luckily, she'd probably be able to see again once the wound healed...except, her wound wasn't healing.

"Looks like you've run out of strength and energy...This will be fun~"

Daybreak was only about an hour away, but she knew she wouldn't last that long...It was all over for her.

"Sorry, I'm late. Your crow has a bad sense of direction..." A monotone voice spoke out.

"Please don't disrespect her crow when your old one is no better..." Another deeper voice said.

Kagome lifted her head to see Giyuu Tomioka, The Water Hashira, and Gyomei Himejima, The Stone Hashira. "Y-you guys made it..." Her voice was weak. She was obviously too tired to continue fighting at this point; in fact, she had reached her limit quite a while ago. The only thing that kept her going was her adrenaline.

"Oh shit, more Hashira? Yeah, so I'ma just uh... Bye!-" Douma made a gigantic wall of ice separating himself from the demon slayers.

Gyomei broke down the ice wall, but by the time he did, Douma was gone.

"Hey, are you alright...?" Giyuu crouched down to Kagome, and Gyomei walked over and did the same.

"I'm fine...Just a bit worn out is all..." She pushed herself up to her feet, blood still gushing from her right eye.

Giyuu picked her up, and at this point, she was too tired to protest. The three of them made their way to the butterfly mansion, There Kagome was treated for her wounds. After a day her wound scarred over, leaving a permanent mark on her. And that is the story of how she got her scar.
