The Power of Her Love : Chapter 9 The Power of Her Love Chapter 9

"HOW DARE YOU?!" screamed Inuyasha, raging with fury.

Naraku sniggered. This was the moment he had been waiting for. With Inuyasha so angry he would activate his demon blood and become full demon. Then Naraku could devour not only Kagome and her power but Inuyasha in his transformed self aswell!

"Yet again you have failed to protect Kagome. Inuyasha, i'm surprised she's managed to stay alive this long." jeered Naraku, making Inuyasha even more angry.

"How dare you harm Kagome..." mummbled Inuyasha furiously his head hanging low "I will make you feel every bit of pain you've made her go through!!" he roared, lifting his head up.

"Thats it Inuyasha, get angrier!! Release that wonderfull power of yours and become full demon! Then i shall devour you and have my full power will be restored!!" thought the evil demon.

Inuyasha's silver mane of hair blew wildly in the wind, covering most of his face. He could feel the demonic blood inside his veins begining to take control. His once orangy-gold eyes flashed red and purple markings appeared and disappeared on either side of his cheeks. He was near full transformation when something caught his attention.

"What's that power i feel...Its... So strong!!" thought Inuyasha "It's not Naraku...the power is to strong to be his...Is another demon coming?"

Inuyasha was confused. He had felt this power somewhere before...but where? Naraku's eyes widened. Such power was being formed that if absorbed could sustain his demon body and keep him from death for good, but where was it coming from?

"What is this almighty power? I can't see any other demon with such power any where! But wait..." his thoughts stopped as he looked down at the limp body he held "Could it be this girl? How can she have so much power?! What exactly is she?"

"Enough waiting! Naraku, i'll kill you!" yelled the almost fully transformed half-demon. "I've got to get Kagome to safty while i still have control of myself!"

Inuyasha ran for Naraku, his Tetsusaiga his hands. Inuyasha jumped high in the air and came thundering down, his Tetsusaiga ready to slice Naraku in half. The mighty sword was inches from Naraku's head. But Naraku didn't move a muscle. Instead he threw Kagome's body in the way, knowing that Inuyasha would never harm her. Inuyasha stopped his attack just as Naraku had planned. The half-demon reached for the young priestess's limp body when a pulse of emence power sent him flying, along with Naraku.

"No...It can't be...The power was Kagome!" thought Inuyasha as he landed on a knocked over tree in a heap.

Naraku landed lightly only meters from Inuyasha, his facial expressions full of anger and hatred.

"No i will not loose to this pathetic excuse for a demon!" raged Naraku within his mind. "That reched girl will be mine!!"

Sango eyes slowly fluttered open. Herself, Miroku, Shippo and Kirara had also got caught in the pulse of power. Her eyes opened wide as she saw the destruction of trees around her. The demon-slayer sighed in releif that she was still alive, but where were the others? As Sango propped herself up with her elbows she felt something soft and slightly squishy beneath her. It was Miroku. He had tried to protect Sango as best as he could and as a result of it had gotten himself hurt.

"Oh, Miroku..." thought Sango.

Stumbling a bit, but managing to stand, Sango helped Miroku to his feet.

"Why did you do that?! You could have gotten yourself killed!" she exclaimed.

The monk smiled kindly. He was just glad that Sango wasn't harmed.

"Whats the point in both of getting hurt if only one of us can?" joked Miroku "Talking about getting hurt where is Shippo and Kirara?"

Sango smiled calmly and turned her head to the sky. There she saw Kirara in her transformed state with Shippo on her back. The slayer whistled and the gigantic cat demon flew down to where Miroku and Sango stood. Once all where on Kirara's back they headed back to where Kagome and Inuyasha where.

Inuyasha's once transformed self had returned back to normal. Every where he looked nothing but destuction could be found. When Sango and the others reached the half-demon, they all watched in horror as Kagome floated in mid-air above them.

"Kagome..." whispered Inuyasha.

With out any thought, Naraku launched himself at Kagome. Kagome turned her body in his direction and raised her right hand.

"Die" she said, emotionless.

Naraku laughed at her courage. A beam of light shot out of the young priestess's hand, like her sacred arrow, and flew straigh into Naraku's body.

"What? How can she damage me like this?" thought Naraku as he landed in a heap on the ground.

Miroku was amazed that Inuyasha had not moved to save Kagome. Sango had also noticed and was worried that the half-demon was under some kind of spell.

"Inuyasha?! Why are you standing here? Why aren't you helping Kagome? Come on Miroku, we've got to help her! Kirara!" shouted the demon-slayer.

Sango and Miroku climbed onboared Kirara's back but was stopped from flying away by Inuyasha. Sango couldn't beleive what she was seeing.

"INUYASHA?! WHAT ARE YOU DOING? KAGOME NEEDS OUR HELP!!" she cried desperatly.

"No she doesn't." replied Inuyasha calmly.

"What?" asked Miroku and Sango at the same time.

"She can take care of herself. Just watch." spoke Inuyasha.
