Koga quotes from InuYasha

Koga

This woman is off limits! I'll kill anyone who tries to take a bite!

Koga

I don't get why you like him.

Koga

How dare you! Why did you slaughter my pack of wolves!!?

Inuyasha

So you're the one controlling this bloodthirsty pack!

Koga

And you're their executioner!? Damn you all for murdering my underlings!! You'll pay with your lives!!

Inuyasha

Go on! Try it! How many innocent people have you and your pack killed!!?

Kagome

And even your no match for them?

Koga

That's just it. One of the birds of paradise possesses a Sacred Jewel shard, and now he's even faster than we are. A few weeks ago, he killed fifty of our wolves in one fell swoop. It's gotta be the power of the Sacred Jewel. At this rate, I'm afraid our packs will be wiped out completely. So we need to restore the balance of power somehow.

Kagome

So your pack is in danger and that's why you need me to find which bird has the shard.

Koga

She risked her life to save her friend. She's loyal. I'm gonna make you my woman.

Kagome

Huh?

Koga

Kagome, can you see which one of them has the Jewel shard?

Kagome

I can't concentrate while your fighting.

Kagome

Up there! It's right ahead of us! Up on that cliff.

Inuyasha

I won't let you hurt, Kagome. I'm the one you should be coming after, not her.

Kagura

Still alive, are we now? Wolf boy, it appears you didn't complete the job.

Inuyasha

Heh. If you think that mangy wolf could do me in.

Kagura

Oh, please forgive me. Then you are up to a duel with me?

Inuyasha

I warn you: You're not gonna die quickly. Tainting me with eh blood of the wolf-demons, and setting that fool on me was unforgivable. But even more infuriating is the reek of Naraku that cloaks you.

Koga

Naraku?

Inuyasha

Just the thought of that beast gives me the strength enough to move my wounded body.

Kagura

Hello. It's been too long, Koga.

Koga

Not you again!

What's with those skeletons?

Kagura

They're the guards of the castle; they're countless in numbers.

Koga

Wind Sorceress Kagura, I haven't forgotten your despicable face, not for one minute! How could I: you're the one that killed my comrades! (charges) Prepare to die; it's payback time for all you did!

Kagura

(sarcastically) I missed you, too. I was so close to getting your sacred Jewel Shards before; I'll get them this time for sure! (thinking) It'll be easy to slow him down; I'll make him dance for me. Dance of the Dead!

Koga

More tricks!

Kagura

Dance of Blades! (she fires her Dance of Blades at him)

Koga

Not this time! (he dodges through it and lunges towards her) Surprise!

Koga

Got her! Huh?

Kagura

(leaping above him) Fool! I'll cripple you! (closes her fan and points it at him) DANCE OF THE DRAGON!

Kagome

(thinking) Day is breaking! Inuyasha is going to return to his half-demon state! But, if he's seen before that...

Inuyasha

(thinking, as he runs toward Kagura) Kagome, Miroku, Sango- you're all mere mortals, yet you fight so hard! All because you believed in your own power. I can't hold back, knowing that!

Kagura

(sneering) Koga, you're a glutton for punishment, aren't you? How about surrendering? (she conjures another whirlwind above him)

Sango

Koga!

Kagome

Look out, Koga!

Kagura

(thinking) I've done it!

Inuyasha

(smirking) Kagura- it can't be much fun, killing a half-dead wolf, can it?

Kagura

Inuyasha?!

Inuyasha

(draws Tetsusaiga) I'll take you on from this point!

Kagura

(thinking) I know I saw it. For a moment... I saw Inuyasha.

Shippo

(to Kagome) D'you think that Kagura might've seen Inuyasha in his human state just now?

Kagome

(worried) Yeah- maybe.

Kagura

(thinking) I see- there was no moon last night. (smirks) So, Inuyasha- you lose all your powers on a moonless night?

Inuyasha

Huh! What if I do? I'm back, so who cares! (charges)

Kagura

You're right, it doesn't matter anymore. 'Cause you're gonna die, right this minute! Dance of the Dragon!

Inuyasha

Wind Scar!

Kagura

What happened?! How did he cut through my whirlwind?!

Kagome

Amazing!

Kagura

(thinking) He's going to get me!

Sango

All of Naraku's demons...

Miroku

They protected Kagura.

Inuyasha

(sheathes Tetsusaiga) Rgh! Kagura- she escaped again! Hey, ya puny wolf! Hope you learned your lesson: never interfere in my fight with Naraku! (he notices Koga is not paying attention) Huh?

Koga

(finds the Jewel shards Kagura took from him) Found 'em! My sacred Jewel shards!

Inuyasha

What?! Give 'em here!

Koga

No way I'm doin' that! Remember this, mangy mutt: I've sworn to avenge my comrades' deaths! I'll be the one to take Naraku's head, not you! Don't forget that! (starts to leave)

Kagome

Wait, Koga! (he stops) What you saw last night... I mean about Inuyasha. Please, don't tell.

Koga

Oh, don't worry. I couldn't care less what shape that mutt Inuyasha takes.

Shippo

... Does that mean he won't tell?

Miroku

I think we can count on Koga. The problem is Kagura.

Jaken

Look out, my Lord! (Sesshomaru draws Tokijin and kills it with one blow)

Koga

Thanks, but I coulda handled him myself.

Rin

(frightened) Help me, Master Jaken!

Koga

No humans for you, worm!

Sesshomaru

(as Koga passes him) Unnecessary interference.

Koga

(smirks) Feeling's mutual.

Jaken

O-kayyy...

Okay?

Koga

(puts his hands on Ginta and Hakaku's shoulders) Come on, fellas, we have a long way to go. [They leave with their pack of wolves]

Jaken

A-are you content with letting them go, my Lord? Those wolves of Koga's are the very ones who attacked young Rin!

Sesshomaru

If he had tried the same thing today, I would have killed him. (pause) Naraku is the only one I'm concerned about, now; unnecessary conflicts don't interest me.

Koga

How 'bout here?! (he strikes the barrier and glances off) Dammit!

(to Ginta) what's with Koga? He never listens to anyone!

No... Once he makes up his mind, that's it!

There he is now! Koga! Wait up, would ya?!

Koga

You're slow, as usual. What took you two so long?

(panting) You've gotta be kidding!

(panting) It's not... that we're too slow... it's that... you're too... fast!

Koga

Hmm...

Whattaya say we call it quits, Koga?

We have been searching around the mountain for days, now, but there's no way to get past the barrier!

Besides, this place is giving me the creeps!

It can't be easy on you, hitting that barrier over and over again!

Come on, Koga! What do you say?

Let's just give up.

Koga

(angry) Shut your trap! The Band of Seven is definitely here... and I'm gonna bust through this barrier, out of pride!

Ge-heh-heh-heh-hesh...

(chuckles) Well, well, Ginkotsu. It seems they can't see us behind the barrier after all.

Ge-heh-heh-heh-hesh.

(thinking) This barrier is turning out to be very convenient. Hmmm... it's quite sickening, but why not take advantage of it? (aloud) All right, Ginkotsu. First, go for the legs. I want you to blow both his legs off.

Ge-heh-heh-hesh. (aims his cannons at Koga)

Come on, Koga, at least think about it!

Koga

I've had enough of you two quitters! The Band of Seven are hiding in there, so how 'bout this: I'm gonna find them and kill them all myself.

(mockingly) Oohh... we're scared.

Koga

Looks like our search around the mountain wasn't in vain after all! I'm surprised you showed yourselves, though.

(chuckles) I suppose you would be. Would you like to know why we did so? Because of your Shikon Jewel shards!

Koga

(thinking) This is trouble. He got my legs on the first shot! I've gotta put an end to this, fast!

Koga, you okay?!

Koga

Stay back, you two!

Sure, okay!

Think he even stands a chance against that metal monster? That thing's deadly!

Koga

(Thinking) Those two are just like Kyukotsu, resurrected through the power of the Shikon shards! Now, if I can just take the jewels away...

Koga

(charges) I'll get you. You're goin' back to the grave!

(smirks) Pull back now, Ginkotsu.

Ghesh.

Koga

(stops) Huh?! What, you're takin' off?!

Heh! It's not what it looks like.

Koga

What?!

We're still going to destroy you, but from a safe distance.

Wha- they vanished!

He's done for! How can he defeat an enemy he can't even see?!

Koga, let's get out of here! We're sitting ducks!

Koga

(still dodging) I'm not goin' anywhere! (thinking) I knew what I was getting into, but now what? They're deadly... I have to find a way to lure them out of the barrier!

Koga

You sure fell for my plan! You're not goin' back behind the barrier now!

Heh. It's a little early to be congratulating yourself.

Koga

What do you mean?!

Well, you see, we have no need to escape from you, little man. You're the one who can't get away.

Hey, he's right!

And besides, how much harm could a wounded wolf do to us?

Koga

(flinches, thinking) He knows about my legs!

Finish him off, Ginkotsu.

Ghesh. (he starts to rotate in Koga's direction)

Koga

(charges) Right!

Fool.

Koga

I don't think so!! We'll see who the real fool is!!

Koga

(thinking) They have to be somewhere in his body!

(thinking) Damn him! He's after the shard in my neck!

Koga

... I almost lost you two.

(weakly) Sorry about that...

Pathetic Fools! Behold!

Koga, the Goraishi! It's gone!

You should've abandoned your friends and obtained the Goraishi when you had the chance!

Koga

Heh! If you think I regret my choice, then you don't know me at all!

What?!

Koga

Listen up! The only reason I came for your precious Goraishi is because I planned to use it to avenge my tribe! But if it means sacrificing my comrades, then I don't need the Goraishi! Got it, moron?!

Koga...

I'd follow you anywhere!

Kikyo

Your name is Koga, is it not? Have you also come here in pursuit of Moryomaru?

Koga

Yeah, I have. You, too, right?

Kikyo

Listen to me: Cease your pursuit of Moryomaru. (she notches an arrow in her bow and aims it at Koga)

Koga

Lady, I heard you were reckless, not stupid.

Kikyo

I have no intention of taking your life. I need only for you to give me the Sacred Jewel fragments in your legs.

Koga

(scoffs) All right! Now I'm sure you're insane.

Kikyo

You must have noticed by now. Those shards in your legs are being controlled by the will of another. I'm sure you experienced the sensation many times now, where your legs stopped moving in the face of an enemy.

Koga

Kagome told me about it. She said it's happening because of an ancient priestess named Midoriko.

Kikyo

And now I have joined her spirit with mine for the sake of defeating Naraku. In order to destroy him, the Shikon Jewel must be completed and purified as a whole. Every time your legs stop moving, it is because Midoriko is trying to give Naraku your shards. However, if you lose your shards in the midst of battle, you may very well lose your life as well.

Koga

Oh, I see! So you were just hoping I'd hand over my shards and run away, right?

Kikyo

I made a vow to bury Naraku. You have my word.

Koga

Don't give me that!! You listen to me!! You're not the only who's got a score to settle with Naraku!! He murdered dozens- no hundreds- of my fellow wolf-demon tribe members!! And still you expect me to run away just to save myself!!?

Koga

Guess you were aiming for my legs! Big mistake. Well, it's been interesting. But if I waste anytime here, I'll never catch up with Moryomaru. See ya, Kikyo! (runs off)

Kohaku

Lady Kikyo!

Kikyo

I tried to prevent an unnecessary sacrifice... but I failed.
