Another Girl From The Well

Confrontation

Once Sesshomaru and Kirai were done with their bath in the hot springs, they got dressed and began to make their way further south. Since they could now smell/sense their friends, they proceeded with haste. Sesshomaru flew above the trees with Kirai clinging onto him. She was still afraid to fly, that didn't go away when her memories returned to her. It was clearly a true fear of hers and one that Sesshomaru found to be funny.

"Don't you laugh at me. This isn't funny. I'm terrified right now." Kirai growled at the demon as he smirked to himself after she tightened her hold on him. "I swear if you drop me..."

"Do not worry... I'd catch you if you fell." The humor in his voice made Kirai even angrier.

"Sesshomaru..." It was a warning.

"Hush, I will not drop you. I plan to never let you go ever again." That sweetness caused Kirai to blush to herself and hide her face in Sesshomaru's Mokomoko.

It took quite a while, but the two of them finally could smell/sense that they were close to their friends. So, Sesshomaru landed and Kirai got off of him carefully. Her legs were a little shaky so she used Sesshomaru to support herself. He helped her stand up and walk for a moment before she regained full use of her legs.

"Are you prepared?" Sesshomaru questioned as he looked down at his shorter lover.

"Yeah, let's go kick some ass and save our friends!" Sesshomaru just stared down at Kirai with a blank look on her face, but his eyes showed some of her enthusiasm.

With those fighting words, Sesshomaru and Kirai made their way to the hideout of their enemy. They walked the rest of the way through a patch of forest. Within the forest, there was a little castle that the two came upon. That castle was their destination. Hakai and their friends were within it, but outside of it were many demons and the two warlocks from before; the blue and white-robed men.

"Hello, you two. We've been waiting for you." The blue-robed man spoke up with a smile on his face. He had a staff in his hands and so did the other man.

"It's time for you two to die." The other man spoke up with a smile also on his face.

"I'm sorry, but we can't do that. We're here to save our friends, not die!" Kirai called out angrily as she unsheathed her sword. Sesshomaru followed suit and brought out Bakusaiga.

"Kill them." The blue-robed man spoke to the demons and pointed his staff in the direction of Kirai and Sesshomaru. The demons all darted forward and headed towards the couple.

The next few minutes were full of Sesshomaru and Kirai fighting demons. Every one in a while, the robed men would send a blast of their power into the mix which the couple managed to avoid. The two warlocks mainly just watched though, until the two were finished with all of the demons, then they appeared closer to Sesshomaru and Kirai.

"It's time to die!" One of them yelled out as they attacked Sesshomaru. Instantly though, they were cut down. Sesshomaru moved faster than he'd ever moved before and sliced the white-robed man right in half. The remaining halves of him disintegrated into nothingness.

"My brother!" The blue-robed man cried out as he watched the other man die. Within a moment, Sesshomaru was face to face with the man.

"You are next. Die." Was all Sesshomaru spoke before swinging his sword at the blue-robed man. However, that man was able to dodge, but waiting there was Kirai who swung her sword and cut that man in half. He was slowly ate away by her acid as he screamed in pain. It was a horrible death, but both Sesshomaru and Kirai couldn't find it in their hearts to feel bad for him.
