Inuyasha: Naraku's Malice and Kagome's Answer

This is a realistic alternate ending to the series.

Why did I make it you ask?(what you didn't ask, well I'm going to tell you anyway)

When I watched the Final Cut I was slightly disappointed.

Naraku, who had the whole jewel, couldn't take out one village.

Shesshomaru and Naraku didn't have an all out full-fledge demon battle.

Kikyo died.

No twists at the end.

So I decided to make this alternate series

Please read and see if you prefer this ending in place of the final cut.

(It takes place after Kikyo's "final death" don't worry there is going to be Kikyo drama)

Chapter 1: The Mission

"I can't believe it. Kikyo is dead. Why, Why couldn't I save her, why did I fail again?"

The words were uttered sadly and impatiently from the mouth of the silver haired half demon named Inuyasha. The words spoken by Inuyasha fell on the ears of the 15 year old girl, Kagome, who was sitting in the next room. Kagome wanted to comfort him, but how can the reincarnation comfort Inuyasha, who loved her predecessor. Every time she thought about it, it was strange to her. Kikyo and herself was one in the same but different. Kagome existed because Kikyo died. Kagome always thought why was she brought back to this time period? Was it to help Inuyasha to defeat Naraku? Was it simply to bring back the Shikon jewel to the feudal era? What was my true purpose of being in the past?

These questions rang in Kagome's mind when the perverted yet kind monk, Miroku, walked in.

"Kagome are you okay?" Miroku asked quite concerned.

"Yes, I just don't know what to do, Inuyasha... is he ever going to be the same?" asked Kagome sadly.

"Give him time to grieve and to realize his mission." declared Miroku.

"His mission?" Kagome repeated.

"Yes to defeat Naraku and to avenge who he had lost and to protect whom he hasn't lost." Kagome's eyes lit up as Miroku spoke these words. Then the doors to Inuyasha's room opened. Inuyasha stepped out staring at Kagome as she stared back at him. "Inuyasha...uhh...I," stammered Kagome.

"There's no need for you to say anything Kagome," said Inuyasha softly.

"Inuyasha?" said Kagome lovingly.

"Thank you for being here by my side," Inuyasha responded sincerely.

As soon as he thanked her, Sango, the demon slayer, ran in and exclaimed, "NARAKU! HE'S HERE!"

Everybody ran outside almost in a panic. As they looked up, they saw the dark aura cover the skies over Kaede's village appearing out of nowhere. "Why why didn't I sense it?" uttered Miroku as if he was speaking to himself.

"THAT BASTARD I'LL KILL HIM TODAY", yelled Inuyasha passionately.

Inuyasha sped toward the origin of the dark aura.

"INUYASHA STOP!" Kagome yelled, but he was already gone.

Sango appeared with Kilala, her fateful demonic pet, and Shippo, the young fox demon. "Come on Kagome get on", Shippo said imperatively.

Kagome, Sango, and Shippo rode on Kilala toward Inuyasha while Miroku ran on foot next to them. Shippo desperately cried, "This is crazy how are we going to defeat Naraku, he has the whole jewel now, doesn't he?"

"We will do it!" Miroku reassured him.

"He will pay for the crimes he did against my people!" exclaimed Sango remembering her younger brother Kohaku. "Kohaku I hope you safe," she thought.

"I have a bad feeling," Kagome thought, "Maybe we shouldn't try to face him just yet."

As Sango, Miroku, Shippo, and Kagome moved toward Inuyasha direction, they saw Inuyasha just standing there at what it seems like a barrier. "INUYASHA!" Kagome yelled.

"THAT BASTARD I CAN'T GET PAST THIS BARRIER!" the half demon screamed out of frustration.

"Barrier?" Miroku spoke confoundedly, "A barrier is made to keep the enemy away what is he trying to protect? I mean why come here to just put up a barrier?"

"Maybe he is not trying to keep us out maybe he is trying to keep us in," the young priestess clarified.

As soon as Kagome spoke, a huge cloud of the blackest darkness appeared above the village, it was Naraku.
