Inuyasha and the choice
(Chapter one)
(im also a first time writing so enjoy)
The battle field was quiet at first, almost too quiet.
Inuyasha grabbed kogame's hand and squeezed it giving her support.
Naraku stood on the other side of the battle field just staring at them with a pleased smile on his face. He had another one of his monsters of his own creation standing next to him. His eyes were glowing red.
Kagome sent up a little prayer and strung her bow and placed an arrow in it and pulled back aiming right at Naraku's cold unbeating body, His heart lay somewhere unknown, in a body that was also unknown to them.
Kagome and her friends got into their battle stances and gave each other one last look of encouragement. They knew that this battle wasn't going to be an easy one. They were up against pretty formidable forces. Naraku smiled at Kagura, Kanna, Kohaku, and then lastly at his newest creation Kohana.
"Go forth my creations and kill them…. but bring me the sacred jewel shards they possess." Naraku said smiling evilly; Kagura was the first one to attack. She sent wind tornados at them and Inuyasha stepped in front of Kagome in a protective way. "Back-lash Way!" Inuyasha swung out his sword and Kagura's wind tornado was hurled back at her but Naraku's barrier saved her.
"Wind Tunnel!" Miroku yelled opening up his right hand, the wind around them changed direction and started pulling things into his hand. "Miroku! Saimyōshō!" Sango screamed as she threw her Hiraikotsu and killed some of the poisonous wasps.
"Ha-ha! You monk, might not be leaving this battle field!" Naraku threw his head back in laughter as Miroku sucked up some of the poisonous insects. "Stop Miroku! You're going to die!" Shippo screamed at Miroku from Kelala's back "I can't move." Miroku said through clenched teeth.
"That would be Koana's power over you. He is keeping you in place." Naraku's smile brightens. Everyone's eyes opened in shock and Sango body slammed Miroku into the ground and grabbed his sacred beads and wrapped it around his wrist closing off the wind tunnel, Miroku laid there unconscious and groaning in pain.
"Inuyasha, on your right!" Kagome yelled as Kohaku hurled his weapon at Inuyasha and Kagome. "I won't let you hurt her!" Inuyasha blocked kusarigama (Kohaku's weapon) from hitting her and then charges him. "Your efforts will be in vain Inuyasha. Admit it you can't even protect your comrades." Naraku says as he comes up behind Kagome and transforms his arm into a sharp weapon, and grabs Kagome holding the knife looking arm to her throat. "Kagome!" Inuyasha yells and starts running toward them.
"Don't move! Or I will slit her throat right here and now." Naraku smiled and laughed when Inuyasha stopped dead in his tracks. "Admit it Inuyasha you're not strong enough to protect the people you truly care about." Naraku looks at the unconscious Miroku with Shippo by his side and then at Sango and Kelala fighting with Kagura and Kanna. "Everyone that you love will die, you will die. You weren't even strong enough to save your last lover, so why would you think you're strong enough to save this one." He tightens his hold on Kagome and she yelps in pain.
"Let her go Naraku." Inuyasha growled at him "tsk tsk tsk Inuyasha your anger is getting the better of you." Naraku said he looked to Kohana "Go forth and kill Inuyasha." Kohana's eyes glowed a deeper red and he started walking toward Inuyasha. Inuyasha positioned his sword readying for the fight, but Kohana moved with such fast movement that Inuyasha barely had time to block his move. Inuyasha was thrown back a couple feet, and before Inuyasha could recover from it Kohana was there and knocked him into a tree.
"Inuyasha!" Kagome yelled and fought against Naraku's hold on her. "I wouldn't try escaping it will only hurt you." Naraku said as blood started to seep down from her neck. "Kagome stop. I'm fine; I don't want you getting hurt." Inuyasha said pulling himself off of the ground and facing Kohana once more.
"Please be careful, Inuyasha." Kagome croaked out as she relaxed a little and the blood flowed a little more, now that nothing was pressed against the wound. Inuyasha glared at Kohana and ran at him, "Wind Scar!" Inuyasha's sword came to life as yellow tendrils came out of the sword and slithered across the ground toward Kohana. It was a direct hit and Kohana shrieked in pain.
Inuyasha smiled with victory, but then his smile faded as Kohana got back up looking like he could still take on an army. Kagome's mouth dropped open and then fear flashed across her face. "I will not hesitate to kill you. You are dead." Kohana moved again with his fast movement and No one could see what was coming. Kohana's hand busted through Inuyasha's chest and came out the other side.
"NOOOO!" Kagome screamed as Inuyasha let out a muffled groan and Kohana picked him up by the hole in his chest and flung him into a tree as hard as he could and we all heard bones snap. Inuyasha fell to the ground with a loud thud, he laid there unmoving and not breathing. "INUYASHA!" Kagome fought against Naraku again and more blood seeped from her neck as she kept struggling to break free.
Kagome was fighting against Naraku's grasp on her with tears streaming down her face. She grabbed at her arrow's and pulled one arrow out of her quiver and stabbed it into Naraku's body, his grip loosened just enough for her to escape. She busted out of his arms and ran to Inuyasha's still body and fell to her knee's beside him. "No no no no. this can't be happening." She muttered to herself with more tears streaking her face, Naraku laughed "So the great Inuyasha falls." Naraku's smile grew, "but now that he's gone who will save you my dear?" he cocks his head slightly to the side staring at her.
Sango was thrown to the ground and Kagome heard her grunt, Sango laid there not getting up for a minute but then slowly started to climb to her feet. Miroku stirred and struggled to sit up, Kagome saw Shippo holding a medicine bottle he must had taken from her bag. Miroku saw Sango struggling to get to her feet and he mustered all the strength he could get and also got to his feet, grabbing his staff and going to stand by her side. They headed off into battle this time together and in unison.
"Now it's your time to die." Naraku's words brought Kagome's attention back to him and Kagome stared in horror at Naraku as he started to walk closer to her. She couldn't die not here, not now, she could still possible save Inuyasha but she needed to get him somewhere away from this fight, so she wouldn't get attacked or interrupted. "Say goodbye." Naraku lifted his arm above his head and strikes, Kagome shut her eyes readying herself for the blow, but the blow never came. Slowly Kagome opened up her eyes to see what had stopped him.
Koga was standing in-between her and Naraku, he had block Naraku's attack with his sword that he kept at his hip. He looked back and smiled at her, "I won't let anyone hurt you, Kagome." He looked over and saw Inuyasha's beaten and bloody body and a look crossed his face, but Kagome couldn't read it. "Is the mutt dead?" Koga asked pushing Naraku back a few feet, never taking his eyes off Naraku he inched closer to Kagome.
"He's not breathing but I have an idea that might save him, but I can't be attacked when trying to do this." Fresh tears were running down Kagome's face. Koga hesitated but finally said, "I will make sure you are not attacked." Kagome knew that Koga's hesitation was because he was thinking if he should just take Kagome and run or stay and fight and let her save Inuyasha. She was grateful that he stood to fight. Koga, Ginta, and Hakkaku started fighting Naraku and Koana trying to keep them away from Kagome.
Kagome bent down and flipped Inuyasha over onto his back; she stared into Inuyasha open blank eyes. Blood was smeared on his face and the sight of it brought more tears streaming down Kagome's face. She stroked Inuyasha's cheek and whispered "I will save you. You cannot die on me, you hear that." Kagome pulled her hand away and grabbed her portion of the sacred jewel out from under her shirt. She held it in one hand and laid the other hand over it bringing it close to her chest.
Kagome wiping the tears that were falling from her eyes said, "Shikon jewel please hear me, bring Inuyasha back to life. He didn't deserve to die like this." Kagome felt the jewel start to heat up then in her mind she heard a powerful voice.
"The power you are asking for is very strong. It can be done but I will warn you of this it will come with consciences." The voice halted waiting from Kagome's response, without even having to think about it Kagome answered, "I will take whatever consciences there is. I love Inuyasha and I can't live without him. I will do anything to bring him back." The tears started to well up in her eyes but she fought them back.
"If this is what you so choose. I will make it happen but be warned once I bring him back there is no going back." Kagome could feel the power that the voice and the Shikon Jewel had. "I'm sure this is what I want." Was all Kagome said and her face read that she wasn't going to change her mind. The power started to swirl around her and a bright light grew and grew until it engulfed both Kagome and Inuyasha. Hurt but the purifying light Naraku, Kagura, Kanna, Kohaku, and Kohana disappear into thin air.
The blinding light grew brighter and brighter. Sango, Miroku, Shippo, Koga, Ginta, and Hakkaku all shielded their eyes from the light. When the light disappeared and they opened their eyes they saw Inuyasha and Kagome in a tight embrace. Inuyasha's hair had turned black and his dog ears were gone. They all stared at them open mouthed and waiting from them to turn and face them.
