Me-cuddles up to Yami's side and receives a hug and a kiss on the top of the head. Me- I am comforted. But please review anyway! . oh, and don't forget, if you have any questions or suggestions, please don't hesitate to speak out!

Inuyasha looked at Naraku, then smiled a horrible smile. His now-red eyes narrowed, and he heard an indrawn gasp from Sango. He looked toward Sango and Miroku, and the monk moved slightly, placing himself in front of Sango. There was no movement, no sound on the bloody battlefield.

Naraku broke the silence when he chucked. "So, you have transformed to full demon. No matter. I still have the ultimate protection from you. But, just in case..." he trailed off and lifted his hand. Alara, who had been forgotten in Kagome's plight, was lifted from the ground, struggling and growling. Over the battlefield, Inuyasha's and Alara's eyes connected. The female amber orbs registered shock and horror, whilr her older brother's registered nothing. But slowly, his eyes bgan to show sorrow, and he slowly became a hanyou once more. "That's better." Naraku said.

Alara looked around the battlefield, her eyes widening as she took in her friends one by one, but real shock hit her heart painfully when she saw Kagome's inert form. "Oh, no." she whispered. "Kagome, what have I done to you?" Tears slipped down her face as she lowered her head, hanging limply from Naraku's hold.

Naraku laughed. "You see." He purred. "I told you that your memories were not wanted. I am your friend. I can save you again. Look at what you've done. Do you really want to live with this?" Alara covered her face with her hands. "I helped Kohaku the same way. All those horrible memories..." Naraku quirked a brow as he saw Sango stiffen out of the corner of his eye.

"Why you-"Sango ground out. "Kirara!" The neko kagati jumped to her mistress's side and they ascended. Sango threw Hiraikotsu with all of her strength. Naraku merely laughed and stopped it in midair. "What the-"was all Sango managed to get out before her weapon was thrown back at her, hitting both youkai and exterminator and knocking them out of the air. They fell to the ground heavily, and Miroku ran up to Sango's side. "No!" His anguished cry came clearly to the three remaining fighters.

Alara watched in horror as another friend was killed. This could not be happening! "You see." Naraku said. "All who oppose me are crushed. Join me, and together we can rule all. All you have to do is destroy Inuyasha." Alara's eyes connected with her brother's. "No."

"What?" hissed Naraku. "You heard me perfectly. NO!" Alara put her hands together in front of her and began to whisper under her breath. A bright light appeared and twisted itself into the shape of a shining arrow. It headed straight towards naraku's chest, and hit accurately. It didn't kill him by a long shot, but it was signifigant enough to make him drop her.

Alara landed on her feet and jumped over to land beside her brother. A chill wind rushed over the battlefield, stirring the silver, brown, and black hair of the three hanyous that were the only ones left standing. Inuyasha raised Tetsuiga and pointed it at Naraku. "You're finished." Was all he said.

Alara also took hold of Tetsuiga, which immediately began to pulse bright blue.

They were about to strike, when- "you weren't about to finish this slime of without me, were you?"

Hehe! Cliffhanger! Please review and let me know what you think!
