Hello. It's been too long, Koga.
GGinta
What's with those skeletons?
They're the guards of the castle; they're countless in numbers.
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!
(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!
Dance of Blades! (she fires her Dance of Blades at him)
Not this time! (he dodges through it and lunges towards her) Surprise!
(leaping above him) Fool! I'll cripple you! (closes her fan and points it at him) DANCE OF THE DRAGON!
Look out, my Lord! (Sesshomaru draws Tokijin and kills it with one blow)
Thanks, but I coulda handled him myself.
(frightened) Help me, Master Jaken!
(as Koga passes him) Unnecessary interference.
(smirks) Feeling's mutual.
(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]
A-are you content with letting them go, my Lord? Those wolves of Koga's are the very ones who attacked young Rin!
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.
How 'bout here?! (he strikes the barrier and glances off) Dammit!
(to Ginta) what's with Koga? He never listens to anyone!
GGinta
No... Once he makes up his mind, that's it!
There he is now! Koga! Wait up, would ya?!
You're slow, as usual. What took you two so long?
(panting) You've gotta be kidding!
GGinta
(panting) It's not... that we're too slow... it's that... you're too... fast!
Whattaya say we call it quits, Koga?
GGinta
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!
GGinta
It can't be easy on you, hitting that barrier over and over again!
Come on, Koga! What do you say?
GGinta
Let's just give up.
(angry) Shut your trap! The Band of Seven is definitely here... and I'm gonna bust through this barrier, out of pride!
(chuckles) Well, well, Ginkotsu. It seems they can't see us behind the barrier after all.
(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!
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.
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!
(thinking) This is trouble. He got my legs on the first shot! I've gotta put an end to this, fast!
GGinta
Think he even stands a chance against that metal monster? That thing's deadly!
(Thinking) Those two are just like Kyukotsu, resurrected through the power of the Shikon shards! Now, if I can just take the jewels away...
(charges) I'll get you. You're goin' back to the grave!
(smirks) Pull back now, Ginkotsu.
(stops) Huh?! What, you're takin' off?!
Heh! It's not what it looks like.
We're still going to destroy you, but from a safe distance.
He's done for! How can he defeat an enemy he can't even see?!
GGinta
Koga, let's get out of here! We're sitting ducks!
(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!
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.
Well, you see, we have no need to escape from you, little man. You're the one who can't get away.
GHGinta/ Hakaku
Hey, he's right!
And besides, how much harm could a wounded wolf do to us?
(flinches, thinking) He knows about my legs!
Finish him off, Ginkotsu.
Ghesh. (he starts to rotate in Koga's direction)
I don't think so!! We'll see who the real fool is!!
(thinking) They have to be somewhere in his body!
(thinking) Damn him! He's after the shard in my neck!
... I almost lost you two.
(weakly) Sorry about that...
WSWolf-Sentry
Pathetic Fools! Behold!
GGinta
Koga, the Goraishi! It's gone!
WSWolf-Sentry
You should've abandoned your friends and obtained the Goraishi when you had the chance!
Heh! If you think I regret my choice, then you don't know me at all!
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?!
GGinta
I'd follow you anywhere!
Kagome, are you gonna be okay?
(slaps his leg) Wish I could say that- my legs feel like they're made of lead now! I guess I just didn't expect to survive like this.
(shakes her head) Mm-mm. It's a blessing you're still alive! Shards or no shards, you've helped us so much.
Anyway... (he stands up and walks towards Inuyasha)
(apprehensively) Koga...?
Oh, hey. (Ginta and Hakaku look shocked)
There's no sense me sticking around any longer- I'll only end up holding you guys back.
I see. So, you're leaving us, too.
(scoffs) Ah, quit feelin' sorry for yourself! (he kneels in front of Inuyasha) Wait, you know, I don't mean to sound harsh, Inuyasha... (he suddenly headbutts Inuyasha) But do you think you're the only one suffering?! Huh?!
I mean, look at me! Try to imagine how it feels for me to leave Kagome behind- you think that doesn't hurt?
(whacks him over the head) Would you stop agreeing with me?! It's creepin' me out!
(irritated) Wolf boy, I'm only sitting here listening to you because you're injured, all right? Now back off!
(indicating Inuyasha) See that? He's actin' like a dumb dog! Looks like he's got a long recovery ahead of him. Look, Kagome... what he needs now is to have you by his side.
I know. Thanks, Koga. I'm sorry to make you worry so much.
I know. (he gives her a hug)
Take care of yourself, ok?
(thinking) Damn you, Koga...
KOGA! Listen Wolf Boy, if you think you lost your Jewel Shards for nothing, you're wrong. Your effort won't go to waste.
(chuckles) Yeah, well... I'm holding ya to that. Kagome, feel free to come look me up if you get sick of the pup.
GGinta
Well, let's go, Koga!
We'll run nice and slow, so you can keep up!
And just like that... they're gone.
