Prologue
Kaede walked outside of her hut to tell the others what she had found after examining Inuyasha. When Kagome saw the elderly miko come out she started to ask how he was. "How…"
"Inuyasha is still unconscious, but as far as I can tell he has no physical aliments beyond some minor flesh wounds. However his demonic aura is extremely weakened."
"Will he be okay, Kaede?" asked Kagome.
"His aura will recover with time as he builds his energy back up. But I must ask you child, what in the name of the seven gods, happened for him to use that much energy?"
"Well…" Kagome said as she remembered the battle earlier that afternoon that lead to this.
----------
"Kaze no kizu," Inuyasha yelled as he unleashed his attack at the demon. 'Damn, he doesn't look hurt, but I know he took a direct hit.'
"Hiraikotsu," Sango yelled as she threw her weapon, while at the same time Kagome shot one of her purifying arrows along side it towards the beetle demon that was attacking them.
"Inuyasha, our attacks aren't working!" yelled Miroku as another of his staff strikes failed.
"No fucking kidding Miroku! Everyone, get behind me!" the inuhanyou yelled at the rest of his group.
"Bakuryuha," he yelled as brought Tetsusaiga down for his attack. To his utter surprise and shock the beetle strengthen his wings into a shell and suffered no damage.
"Hanyou, how are you still alive with those pathetic sword tricks. The Shikon shards are mine. And with that the lives of your group are mine," the demon laughed.
Miroku said, "Everyone get behind me," as the demon unleashed another powerful attack. Miroku suddenly threw up a powerful barrier that barely protected the group from the attack.
"Kagome, can you help Miroku with the barrier?" Inuyasha asked the miko. 'Maybe she can buy us time to come up with something,' he thought.
Kagome approached Miroku and put her hands on his back to channel her miko energy. She started to glow, along with Miroku, strengthening the barrier and stabilizing it. Along with strengthening the barrier her power went out to heal the group unconsciously.
Inuyasha surrounded by particles of Kagome's power, triggering a flow of visions and thoughts from long ago.
"I can't have this power when I become human…"
"… you need to focus or you'll never learn control or are you giving up…"
"…remember your promise to use your power wisely…"
"… heh heh heh… if you are in a pinch trying to defeat a demon that is immune to your physical attacks try using this nifty trick… Ha ha ha…"
"Inuyasha…"
"Inuyasha. Inuyasha. Inu…" Sango called out.
"What?!"
"Are you okay? You kind of spaced out on us."
"I'm fine… Miroku can you and Kagome keep the barrier up for a little longer? I have an idea."
If Miroku was surprised by the hanyou's statement he didn't show it, "Yes."
Sango watched as Inuyasha sat down in the middle of the barrier, "What are you doing?"
"I don't really know, but it will work." He then closed his eyes and waved his hands around in a circular motion until a purple ball of a mixture of spiritual and demonic energy and started to focus. After sitting like this for a moment he started a chant that even Miroku did not recognize. Suddenly the energy in Inuyasha's hands pulse and a purple barrier appeared around the beetle demon and stopped its relentless attack on the barrier surrounding the group. Then Inuyasha started a different chant and the area inside the beetle's barrier filled with the energy coming from Inuyasha thus incinerating the demon.
Miroku dropped the barrier and Kagome ran after Inuyasha who had stood up unsteadily. As the group reached Inuyasha, he started to fall and Sango caught him before he fell to the ground. "Did I get the bastard?" Inuyasha asked softly.
"You got him," Miroku replied.
"Good," Inuyasha said as he passed out.
