"Let me go!" Sam huffed as loud as she could with Naraku's feelers wrapping tightly around her torso. "Now dammit!"
Naraku laughed in sheer joy; Kikyo, Kagome, and now Sam's screams of pain sent him gleeful shivers down his spine. He needed nothing more.
Danny lay on the dirt, barely moving it almost seemed like he was dead. Unfortunately for him, he wasn't; the pain of the miasma coursing through his body burning everything it touched like a cancer. No scream came from him even though he felt a yelp stuck in his throat.
"Stop fussing, soon you will all be together-in the underworld." He smiled, his feelers penetrating her chest, but suddenly they stopped. Naraku looked forward, the malice once present in his eyes were replaced by a pair of pained, green irises.
"D-danny..." Sam gasped as she fell to the floor; Danny was no longer on the floor.
"Stop you fool, it's over! I won!" Naraku's malice had come back however only for a split second.
"Why don't you...just shut up already?" He shouted taking over Naraku's body once more. He looked down on Sam and saw that she took minimal damage from the feelers, only small snake like marks were left on her chest. "Good to know that you're alright." He sighed.
"Me? Look at you Danny!" She pointed to a small puddle of thick blood on the floor near his foot and she pressed her hands on Naraku/Danny's chest and showed the blood displayed on her fingers.
"Whatever, let's just go Sam." He pulled her along, belittling her warning.
"WIND SCAR!" Inuyasha roared swinging his sword at the walls of Naraku, trying to break loose. Kagome crouched before him.
"Inuyasha, I don't want to die like this, not again." Kagome urged.
"I know! I know!" Shredding and tearing was heard from the outside.
"HIRAIKOTSU!" Sango's familiar voice shouted as a crack in the flesh opened. "Need a hand?" She smiled. Inuyasha jumped out, Kagome on his back.
"Quick! We need to get to Sam and Danny, they're near Naraku and the jewel." Kagome shrilled. The trio rushed to where Sango last saw them, "What? Danny! Sam!" Sango called out shocked that they were gone from where they were.
"Sango, I don't want to pressure you but if we don't find them..." Inuyasha trailed off.
A rustle to their left alerted them that something was coming, they prepared for action.
"Naraku!" Inuyasha growled, making Naraku stop in his tracks and look at him. No one noticed that this Naraku had green eyes instead of dark eyes. Inuyasha took out Tetsusaiga from it's sheath and aimed towards Naraku whom still stood motionless.
"This time I won't let you get away." He growled, Kagome and Sango preparing for battle as well. A second rustling in the bushes came, this time Sam emerged. When she saw them glaring holes into Danny she stood before him.
"No, Wait!" Sam shrilled flailing her arms. The trio looked at her in utter shock.
"Sam, What are you doing?" Sango questioned sadly. Sam swallowed and looked at Inuyasha who looked angrier than the rest of them. 'Naraku' or Danny stayed perfectly still.
"This is not what it seems-" She gasped. "I can explain this whole situation, but just let me explain."
"What? Now you're on his side? Well thats great, but I'm not going to kill you for that. Move outta the way if you don't want to be sliced into ribbons!" Inuyasha growled, lunging forward, thrusting Tetsusaiga at the motionless Naraku.
"No!" Sam shrilled as Sango and Kagome dragged her back, not wanting her to get hurt.
A bright light flashed as Inuyasha sent the windscar cutting through Naraku. When it was over, there was Naraku's body pieces floating in midair.
"How?" Naraku shouted angrily before Kagome shot an arrow that Kaede had sent to her. The purifying light of her arrow finished it off. It was done.
"Why did you do that?" Sam scolded Inuyasha, her eyes brimming with tears as she did so. Inuyasha looked down on her and scoffed, "He was a bad person, didn't you get the memo? Its over you traitor. Go back to where you came from."he turned around, placing the Tetsusaiga back in its sheath.
Kagome and Sango looked at Sam, they knew something other than that was bothering her.
"DANNY WAS IN HIS BODY!" She cried. Inuyasha turned around as soon as she said that.
"What? What are you saying?" Kagome grabbed Sam's shoulders.
"Danny, had been pierced with Naraku's feelers and the poison was spreading fast, but somehow he gained the strength to take his spirit and posses his body. I was going to tell you that, so you could give him time to get out of his body and then you could defeat Naraku."
A silence hung thick in the air Inuyasha was doing a good job on hiding his partial shame.
"Is this true Sam?" Sango asked staring into her eyes, Sam wiped her eyes harshly, nodding.
Inuyasha opened his mouth to speak but a hoarse, broken voice came instead.
"I'm alright...Sam." Danny stopped to lean against a tree, the other hand grabbing his midsection tightly.
"What happened to you? I thought that-" Kagome was cut off, Danny passed out coughing and sputtering.
They all rushed over to help him up but Inuyasha grabbed his limp body and slung him over his shoulder. The girls trailed behind him in silence, cautiously watching out for any signs of mayhem.
The villagers looked up to the skies, with paranoid expressions. The children cesed their screaming because they knew somehow that it was all over.
"Follow me" Kaede instructed discreetly.
"Uhm, Miss Kaede..." Tucker pushed lightly past people to get to her.
"Yes, what is it lad?"
"We still kinda need help finding our friends."
"Not to worry, I have a feeling this will all be fine. Ye'll see." She looked out to the horizon which was turning light shades of pink, orange, purple, and blue. The beauty of the scene made it a possible sign that all bad things were to an end.
