Deleted Scene

Authors Note:

This scene would have come immediately after after "The Hoff" and before he really wigged out, and started scrolling through characters. It is directly quoted from the movie Episode 5: The Empire Strikes Back, except for a few of InuYasha's towards the end. Trust me, I know. I decided to cut it because, it had no interaction with Kagome, and ended up being a bit darker than I wanted, instead of just funny. There wasn't enough contrast between Sesshomaru's character, and that of Darth Vader. Vader is everything that Sesshomaru wishes he could be: ruthless, immensely powerful, feared, and always having to crush some annoying rebellion. Anyway, here it is.

They hurried, traveling as fast as they could without having to stop and rest. Usually it was InuYasha that drove them, today, it was Kagome. He had woke them all at first light, and they had left without so much as a quick meal.

Keep it together, keep it together, keep it together, keep it together. I have got to get out of here. There is no way I'm letting him sneak up on me again. This has gotten so weird!

She had lain awake all night, her head full to bursting with all the questions she wanted answers to, and some she didn't. The reality was still sinking in. Sesshomaru, heart of ice, eyes of stone, hair of silver, looks that kill, body that... SNAP OUT OF IT! I cant think about that right now. I need to concentrate on getting home, talking to Sota, and then beating the shit out of his sorry ass!

She didn't like going this way, it was dangerous. She had only tried once before, and had nearly lost her lunch in the process. They were approaching the gorge, the only bridge made of a huge fallen tree. It would have taken them an extra half day to go around and through Kaede's village like they usually did.

He stepped out of the trees as they passed. She felt his anger and pain as he approached as a steady pace. Dressed all in black, red jewels affixed to his chest, black cape billowing behind him in the wind, and a black helmet that covered his head and face completely. They could hear his breathing coming from inside the mask. "Hoou Puur, Hoou Puur."

"Get over the bridge, I'll hold him off." InuYasha brandished his blade. Sesshomaru held Tokijin forward his aura surrounding it, causing it to glow red.

The two swords clashed as the battle began, their strikes scarring the trees on either side. The dark lord pushed him back towards the bridge where he slipped .

"You are beaten, it is useless to resist, don't let yourself be destroyed as Obi Wan did.

Sesshomaru had been sucked in by the trilogy as he had sat in Sota's room. The Lord of the Sith had inspired awe and respect, two things he did not bestow easily. They were not so different, cold, ruthless, immensely powerful, beholden to no one, and always needing to crush some pesky rebellion. After InuYasha's mocking, and her indignation, he felt that there was nothing left. He had tried out all the other acceptable "cool guys". All that was left was to show her just how powerful he really was. He had no plan after this, if she rejected him now, he had no idea what he would do.

InuYasha leaped back up, not ready for defeat. Sparks flew as the blades connected. In a dash of speed, InuYasha lashed out and struck his brother on the shoulder.

"Aaahhhhh" he groaned on pain and anger. Frustrated that this pup could be any match for him at all.

He swung, his speed blinding, striking the sword from InuYasha's hand, the reverted blade falling to the bottom of the gorge.

"There is no escape, don't make me destroy you."

The hanyou crawled out further on the log bridge

"InuYasha, you do not yet realize your importance, you have only begun to discover your power. Join me and I will complete your training. With our combined strength we can end this destructive war and bring order to the galaxy." Sesshomaru's was held aloft in front of his face, emphasizing each word.

"I'll never join you!"

"If you only knew the power of the dark side. Obi Wan never told you what happened to your father"

"Wait, I thought he died, like 300 years ago. And who's this Obi Wan guy?"

"I am your father."

"No, no, thats not true, thats impossible!!" Inuyasha's ears twitched momentarily. "I mean it is impossible isn't it. Well improbable for sure."

"Search your feelings, you know it to be true!"

"Noooooo! Nooooooo! No I really don't! I mean that doesn't even make any sense, you freak!"

"InuYasha, you can destroy the emperor. He has foreseen this, it is your density, oh, wait...NO, it is your DESTINY! Join me and we can rule the galaxy as father and son."

"Listen, this is getting kind of annoying, for the last time, I'm not your son, you bastard."

"Come with me, it is the only way."

InuYasha looked down, and back up at his brother's face. Without another word, he slipped off the log and into the abyss.

As he fell, he knew it was the only way. He needed Tetsusaiga or else his demon nature would take over and kill his friends. He hoped that Sango and Miroku would be able to stall the lunatic till Kagome could get down the well. Maybe then they would all get some answers.

He just wished he could be there to see the look on Sota's face as she kicked in his door.
