Bleached InuYasha Galaxy

Ichido, satisfied with the demise of the demons turned his attention back to the massacre. Upon further inspection of the bodys he made a new discovery.
"Whoever did this was not... human..."
The stench of death weighed heavily on Ichido. Fatigued from his travels he decided he would make camp on the edge of the clearing, keeping the forest behind him in case he needed to escape quickly. Adjusting his zanpoktoh he knealt near the fire and prepared a pot of tea. His senses quickly becoming atuned as the wind began to blow. Whispers of demons with very powerful auras are heard amongst the wind.
"Whoever these demons are, I must not linger here for longer than neccessary."
Settling back against a tree, he closed his eyes and began to sleep.

Kagomaru's atention was once more drawn by smoke riseing from a nearby fire,at the very edge of the forest...Leaping to the treetops he surveyed and saw a human makeing camp."Ah...How very interesting...THe same one that faught the Demons a while back...*a faint smile apears on his face*"...No concern of mine..."


He jumped down and yawned..."I'll rest for a while...I need all the strength i can at my disposal for what lies ahed...".


He leaned up agenst a tree and started resting..."...finally..."

Opening his eyes, Ichido looked up to see a woman looking at him.
"Can I help you?"
Looks her up and down.
"Your not a bandit are you?"

Ichido shakes her hand and stares at her blankly. Snapping out of his blank stare.
"Ichido Yamamori, pleased to meet you"
Remembering his tea, he pulls the kettle off the fire. He pours himself a cup.
"Would you like some tea as well?"
Ichido offers Kitana a cup.
"Traveling?"

Kagomaru once more woke up and felt a familiar aura in the direction the human had his camp..."...ah...the young half-blood..."..."What a concidence that i too must travel in that direction..."
He got up and stared walking twords the camp..."Sore wa omoshiroi desu...meeting a new face around here...*chuckles*"

And he resumed his travels...


*Sore wa omoshiroi desu = this is interesting

Kagomaru aproched the encampement the human had ...He caught a glimpse of Kitana...the hanyou girl he helped in the battle agenst the moth...it was not in his nature to help others but he was somewhat compelled by circumstance...
He was deep in thought..."I need more power...I alredy have much but it's never enough...Am i overambitious?...Do i fear meeting my own limitations and thus am compelled by fear to push myself ever further...or maybe it's supremacy i seek...I climbed the highest mountains,sweam in the wildest rivers,faught and tested myself agenst the best and yet no power i attained thus far has proven to be enough...I doubt eaven the Shinkon no Tamma will quench my thirst...However,I will never stop..not untill I reach the very limit of my beeing..."...He smilled slightly and looked up twords the sky...He knew right then that the two people at the campfire noticed his presence...He didn't care much about them...he had other matters to attned to...as he started aproching he could sense tension in the air...he wasn't trusted by any of the two..."Good...distrust will keep them alert and safe..."...and he continued to aprock with stedy slow stepps,paying no mind to the bodys of the demons that littered the ground...

Ichido appreacting the change from fighting, got more comfortable and sipped his tea.
"Im a Shinigami in training, my job is to protect those from those that would do harm to them. Demon slaying is just something I picked up as a hobby."
Ichido watchs the girls reaction to this. Then a revelation came over him and he drops his tea and his eyes go wide with fear.
'This aura I sense.... I felt this aura before when I had arrived...'
Looking around something catchs his eye in the mist of the forest, a figure slowly approachs. Ichido stands quickly hand on hilt prepared to draw his Zanpoktoh. The figure sees them and does not act hostile. Ichidos intuition tells him otherwise but he lets go of his hilt and prepares to meet this new guest of his.
'I must be wary of this being, hes not human... Neither is this girl but she seems more than nice for a half-human...'
Still sensing the aura he begins to sweat as it starts to beat down on him.
'Whoever this person is, I am no match for him. If he was to fight me now, he would surely kill me...'

Kagomaru slowly aproched the camp and went streight by,paying no attention to the two people near the fire...He could feel the human's fear and tension but he didn't care...he had no buisness with them,not now at least...It wasn't like him to pick on people that hare weaker without a good reason.
He paused for a second with the two and thair camp behind him...he looked back and grinned...And then he continued his walk...He was headed to the Forbidden Forbidden...

Belegwath leaned back against the dry trunk of a tree, running his thumb along the edge of his sword. In the clearing behind him lay the mutilated remains of a bandit camp.

'These wretched men, something seems to draw them to me like a moth to the flames. If all the humans of this world are as fragile as they, I might never face another foe worthy of song.' Sliding his sword into its sheath, he turned his gaze upward. There was a presence moving towards him, a very familiar presence.

"Well, the soul-shackler. Kagomaru, I think he called himself." As he sprinted into the trees, he noticed two other auras near Kagomaru. 'Well, looks like Kitana is up and about again, but who is the other? His power is strange, far weaker then myself, but different from aura of demons.'

Grinning to himself, he immolated his whip. Kagomaru was a warrior as well, he wouldn't want his skills to dull. 'Maybe a good sparring match will help the both of us.' Leaping from the treeline, his gaze locked on Kagomaru as his mouth broke into a smile.

"En garde!" He roared as he flung burning tails at his friend.

A bit surprised by Belegwath's atack,kagomaru hesitated fir a second,then doged the blow...his power increesed much since the last time they met,as did belegwath's...However he was still below Kagomaru's power level..."hehe...most interesting..."He kept dodging Belegwath's whip atacks,some avoided with ease some avoided nerowly...Belegwath observed Kagomaru's mooves and suddenly modyfied his atack patterns,the whip arching through the air slashing kagomaru's chest...

Kagomaru tok a step back..."Ah...impresive...you show great skill...i was looking forward to meeting you once more..."*he grined coldly*..."Now it's my turn..."

As he finished talking, Kagomaru threw his right arm forward releseing his lightwhip straight at Belegwath...

"Let'sa see how he handeles my little chalange..."he thought to himself with a cold and unnerving smile on his lips...

As the lightwhip zipped forward, Belegwath dug his feet into the ground and prepared to leap. Judging his options, he jumped with all his strength, carrying him straight into the attack. He grunted as the whip tore a large gash into his ribs, but Kagomaru's widening eyes were enough. He hadn't expected such a reckless move.

As the lightwhip dissipated, Belegwath slammed headlong into Kagomaru, sending them both sprawling into the dirt. Belegwath lifted his whip for another strike, but felt his stomach explode as Kagomaru's knee slammed into it. Winded, he fell back onto the dirt, watching as Kagomaru stood and pinned his hand with a foot.

Looking up at his opponent, Belegwath let a small smile creep across his face. Kagomaru raised an eyebrow, then leapt back as Belegwath's body burst into flames.
