Prosper Chapter Nine "Gratitude"
Hotaru put Kagome on her feet, and glared at Naraku,
"What are you trying to do, bastard!?"
Naraku laughed, "Trying to kill her, of course."
"I'd like to see you try!"growled Inuyasha, stepping in front of Kagome.
Kagome whispered, "I'm sorry, Inuyasha."
"Just stay here, and out the way."grunted Inuyasha, obviously mad.
Kagome whispered, "I-
"Save it, Kagome."muttered Inuyasha. "You die here, Naraku!"
Naraku laughed, "You think you can defeat me?"
"He may can't but I sure that guy over there can."smirked Hotaru, pointing at Sesshomaru.
Inuyasha snorted, "Keh, what are you doing here anyway?"
"She saved Rin, and I'm showing my respect."explained Sesshomaru.
Miroku blinked, "Ok, thats weird.Usually you'd be the one to just forget it ever happened."
"You all will die, now!"spat Naraku shooting his tentacles at them all.
Inuyasha turned toward Kagome, to see she wasn't there, "Where did she go!?"
"Inuyasha!Watch out!"called Sango.
Inuyasha pulled out his sword, and cut the tentacle out of his path.Mizu looked around,
"She disappeared, better yet, walked away.Nice going, dog boy!"
Inuyasha yelled, "I didn't do anything!"
"Well, don't you think you said that little to harsh?"asked Sango.
Naraku spat, "Your chit-chatting is ridicule!"
Millions of demons appeared over head, and Hotaru growled,
"This isn't going to be easy."
Sesshomaru looked at Inuyasha, and shook his head. Inuyasha growled,
"Lets get this over with."
In The Forest
Kagome tightened the rope to the try, and wiped sweat from her forehead. She sensed someone behind her, and jumped up in the tree. Just in time to dodge five arrows. There stood Kikyo, holding her side. Kagome jumped onto the roped, and was fully balanced,
"Here to be finished?"
Kikyo hissed, "You aren't going to win.I saw how your precious mate talked to you.He must hate you now."
"Whatever.He can be mad all he wants.Mad for me trying to protect him?"mumbled Kagome angerly. "Whatever."
Kikyo fell on her knee, "Damn, all my power is being drained."
"Those little 'rain needles' weren't just that, they were power drainers.You'll be out cold in-
There was a loud thud, and she looked at Kikyo to see she was on the ground. Kagome snorted, and jumped off the rope,
"The ropes are all nice, and tight.Now for the rest of the plan."
Kagome walked over to Kikyo, and grabbed her bow and arrow. She walked to the cliff threw the thick bushes, and thorns. She finally was behind Naraku. Kagome aimed the arrow at a rope that was hidden behind a bush, and let it fly. It hit the mark, and watched as a small needle zip past the shikon jewel around his neck.
It dropped to the ground right in front of her, and she grabbed it. Kagome got up, and rn to the other side as Naraku shot a tentacle threw there,
"Give me back the jewel, Kagome!Where did she go!"
Kanna whispered, "The mirror can't track her.She's using some type of technique."
"Wench."growled Naraku looking around.
Mizu smirked, "This is going to end without any t-
Tentacles coiled around Mizu, and clenched around her neck,
"If you don't give me the jewel, I will brake her neck!"
Kagome stepped out from behind a tree, and smirked,
"Looking for me?"
Naraku glared, "Where's the jewel?"
"It's around your neck, idiot."
He looked down to his neck, and there it was. Naraku glared,
"What's going on?"
When looked up, Kagome was fading, and he snarled,
"That wasn't really her."
Mizu laughed, "I love this."
"Something doesn't seem right, this is usually the part she makes them go crazy."whispered Hotaru looking around.
Mizu whispered, "It isn't going to work on him, so she's doing the second ground gratitude."
"The what!Mizu, do you know what that is!?"yelled Hotaru.
Mizu nodded, "She's going push him over the ed-
"Enough of this!"growled Naraku.
Demons began pouring out the sky, and a huge blast of energy pushed them all out the way. The energy was pushing Naraku along with them. He tried to fight against it, but it was to powerful. Naraku watched as the jewel turned to ashes,
"A fake!I will not be brought down this easy!"
A arrow zipped past the group, and into then forest. Another rope was cut, and the earth began to soak up. Kagome stepped from the forest, and smirked,
"This is for my family that you destroy."
Sesshomaru's eyes lifted a bit in amazement. She was doing all of this without braking a sweat. Wait, those stars are flashing. They're flashing fast. Something wasn't right. Hotaru yelled,
"Kagome!Watch out!"
Naraku extended a tentacle, and grabbed Kagome. Kagome dug her feet into the ground,
"Let go of me!"
Naraku, who was half way off the edge, spat, "If I die, you're dieing with me!"
"I can't use my power much longer!"thought Kagome.
Sesshomaru pulled out his sword, and simply swung it. Kagome was cut from the tentacle, and fell back. Naraku shouted in horror as he fell over the cliff. Kagome crawled over to the edge, and winced when the impact made a very bloody scene. Hotaru grabbed Kagome's arm, and pulled her away from the edge,
"Get away from the edge, it's gonna-
Kagome cut him off, "I know that."
"You could've gotten killed!"yelled Inuyasha.
Kagome glared at him, "Is that what I get after saving your ass!?"
"I didn't ask to be saved!"glared Inuyasha.
Kagome pushed past him, and walked up to Sesshomaru,
"Thank you for saving me."
Sesshomaru sheathed his sword, "I'm only paying back what you did for Rin.Don't expect me to be protecting you."
Kagome's smile turned to a frown as he turned, and left. She glared at his back, and hissed,
"Seriously, is there a hate thing in their family."
Sango looked at Inuyasha's slightly red face, and cleared her throat,
"Ahem... uh we should head back to the village, and help out."
They all left, except Inuyasha and Kagome. Kagome asked,
"Can I go?"
Inuyasha asked, "Why didn't you tell me, Kagome!?"
"You would've stopped me, and someone would've ended up dead!"yelled Kagome.
Inuyasha yelled back, "That could've ben you!"
"I know!It was a risk that I made sure to think threw of, I'm sorry I snuck behind your back to do this, but it was worth it."whispered Kagome wrapping her arms around him, and laying her head on his chest.
Inuyasha sighed, "Promise me you'll never do something like that without telling me."
"I promise."smiled Kagome looking up at him.
Inuyasha whispered, "You better."
He gave her a kiss on the lips, and picked her up bridal style. Kagome giggled,
"What are you doing?"
He smirked, "Get some sleep, you need it."
"But I want to help rebuild the village."smiled Kagome.
He kissed her forehead, "Do you want the pup to-
"Alright, I'll go to sleep."sighed Kagome laying her head against his chest.
Inuyasha smirked, and made his way to the village.
