Bankotsu skidded to a stop in the crater still on the slope as he held Rin in his arm and Banryu in the other as Inuyasha skidded down the other side. The boy Kohaku was with them, and his jewel shard was gone, and Koga was absent, Bankotsu was sure he'd be here. Bankotsu ran across the slope to Inuyasha as he panted looking to the white haired demons with a small smirk.
"Glad you made it you mangy mutt." He said jokingly, not intending to anger him, just mess with him.
"Yea well I am surprised a zombie made it without eating some brains first." Inuyasha said with a triumphant smirk.
"Yea well at least I didn't initiate a kiss with another male." Wars of words was fun, especially with Inuyasha, he blushed way to easily.
"That isn't fair." He said angrily before he recovered. "Either way this is no time to arguer." He said changing the subject. "Naraku is in there, no doubt about it." He said with a wide smile on his face.
"Yea, I know he is." Bankotsu said with a large smile across his face. "Lets kill that bastard." He said running down the slope with Rin. He looked behind him to see the rest of them follow until they arrived at a small lava bed overlooking a palace with a small shrine.
"Inuyasha." A voice rang out with a very familiar laugh. "It is nice to see you're so fascinated by me you just had to seek me out again." Naraku came out of his palace with a large smile on his face.
"Bastard!" Inuyasha yelled. "You killed Kagura!"
Bankotsu looked to Inuyasha with a shocked look. "What?"
"Yea he killed her on our way here, she was coming here with us to kill him." Kagome said with a sad expression.
Bankotsu set Rin down and raised his Banryu. "It is time for you to die Naraku." Bankotsu said shooting his Dragon Hammer at him as Inuyasha let his wind scar go. Naraku laughed easily avoiding it and shot his whips on his arm bones out at them. Bankotsu jumped out of the way and his Banryu colliding with Naraku's shield and did nothing. He jumped back as Inuyasha did the same with a similar result.
"You can't beat me you fools. I will never die." Naraku laughed atop his pulpit.
"You know Naraku Hakudoshi said the same thing you did." Inuyasha smirked.
"He only died because I let you kill him." Naraku said smirking. "The Saimiyosho abandoned him allowing that monk to use his wind tunnel, otherwise you would all be dead."
Bankotsu looked to Rin who smiled happily. "You get him BanBan!" She said obviously not taking this seriously.
Bankotsu rolled his eyes and smiled at her innocence and lunged at Naraku as he knocked him back slicing his left arm as 2 of his shards flew out and Naraku absorbed them.
"Thank you Bankotsu, that helped tremendously." Naraku said targeting Bankotsu aiming for his neck as he grazed it sending 2 of the 3 in his neck falling out as Naraku took them too as he turned slicing his right arm, taking those 2 as well. "Your to easy to hit for me Bankotsu." Naraku said with a smirk grabbing Bankotsu's right arm and reaching as he pierced Banryu with his claws taking the shards in it. "Now its power is gone." He said laughing as he jumped back. "All that is left is the one in your neck."
Bankotsu panted and Inuyasha jumped behind Naraku with another failed attempt at breaking his barrier.
"Your all complete fools." He laughed as they switched places to his surprise. Bankotsu behind him, Inuyasha and Kagome in front of him. "You think this will do anything?"
"Naraku, my sword still has its demonic capabilities." He said raising it over his head as fireball formed around the spinning Banryu. "Good-bye Naraku." He said throwing it at him. Naraku laughed jumping behind Bankotsu.
Inuyasha smiled from where he was standing raising his Tetsaiga. "Backlash Wave!" He yelled as Kagome fired an arrow with the Backlash Wave taking Bankotsu's Demonic attack and combining with their sending it back to them. Bankotsu rolled out of the way quickly as Naraku took the brunt of the attack. Naraku looked in shock as his barrier shattered and the attack engulfed him. The arrow pierced his body as the Backlash Wave and Hatred Ball seared his body shredding it.
"This is impossible, I can't die, not when I am so close." Naraku yelled reaching out to escape the attack but his hand disintegrated and with a final scream his body vanished into nothing.
Bankotsu laid on the ground as a smile crossed his face at the nothingness where Naraku used to be. He felt something wrap around him as he looked back to see Rin holding him.
"I though I was going to loose you BanBan." She said sobbing seeing his wounds.
"I am fine Rin, I promise." He said leaning back to kiss her. He watched as Kagome looked and picked up the Shikon Jewel and placed it in her pocket with a look on her face that was obviously of sadness. She looked to Bankotsu and he lowered his head as Rin looked confused.
"What is wrong BanBan?" She asked curiously.
"I still have a jewel shard in me. And they need it." He said sadly.
Rin giggled. "So give it to them silly." She said kissing his lips. "So we can finally get out of here.
"Rin, it is what is keeping me alive, without it, I will die." Bankotsu said looking to her with a very sad look crossing his face knowing the words just broke her heart.
"But Bankotsu, you promised we would always be together." She said beginning to cry sadly.
"Listen Rin I love you, but this has to be done." He said planting her a kiss. "I am ready Inuyasha."
Inuyasha walked toward Bankotsu kneeling beside him and moving his fingers to Bankotsu's neck as even Inuyasha began to shed a tear, not wanting to do it.
"Inuyasha wait, I want Rin to do it." He said looking to the small girl as she sobbed hysterically. Rin walked over to him as Inuyasha moved out of the way for Rin.
"I don't want to lose you BanBan, I don't want you to die." She said hugging him as she sobbed.
"It is ok Rin, you will find love again, and I promise, this has been the best time of my life." He said kissing her cheek softly.
"I'll never forget you Bankotsu, you were the first person I loved this much, and you will be the one I loved the most." She said sobbing as she placed her fingers to his neck.
"Goodbye Rin, I love you more than anything." He said a tear falling down Banktosu's cheek.
"I love you too Bankotsu, more than I have ever loved anyone, now, goodbye BanBan, I will miss you." She said pinching his neck, and removing the final jewel shard.
