Epilogue

Kagome waited nervously inside her apartment. She heard crying across the hall and her heart jumped in her chest. She hoped there would be no torturing this night. She hoped Inuyasha would be successful and this war would be over.

The night breeze blew his long, silver hair all around his face. There was only one left for him to be rid of and the rule of the youkai would fall.

Inuyasha jumped down from the tree he was perched in, his feet making no sound on the ground. He flared his youkai to hide the part of his scent that was human. Humans, after all had a curfew and when you disobeyed you were killed without question. Without regret.

Inuyasha crouched behind another large tree and starred up at the youkai's fortress.

In the beginning of this war, the humans were winning. But as planned, they began to harm themselves more than anything and so the youkai prevailed. Ten ruled. nine of them Inuyasha had killed. There were no laws against killing now, so there was no fear in getting put into prison. The only penalty would be if he was caught, he'd die. He was well known now and there was a large price on his head.

If it weren't for Kagome mastering her miko abilities and learning how to mask his scent he would have had to go into hiding. He was glad to have her still by his side and would be even happier when this was over and they could get married and have a real family. Both had agreed bringing a child into the world now would be a mistake.

He'd waited ten long years to begin his mission. He trained, and waited until he knew it was time. His friends, and Kagome's had trained with them, but they were gone now. Not dead, but they had no idea where they went. Maybe when they heard things were okay they'd come back.

Inuyasha went around to the back of the huge, black gate that surrounded the fortress. As always there were guards watching, but he'd gotten past them before and he would now.

He jumped over and used his sword Tetsusaiga. They never had time to draw their own weapons before they took their last breaths.

He ran at full speed threw the courtyard and training grounds and to the back entrance, which he would not take.

Instead he jumped up onto a balcony and made his way to the roof, where he knew he would meet his last opponent.

He stood there and out of the darkness he came. An evil grin on his face.

"Hello brother..."

Inuyasha growled and withdrew Tetsusaiga once more.

"I am not your brother, you bastard!"

Sesshomaru chuckled, but there was no warmth to it and the sound sent shivers down Inuyasha's spine.

"I was wondering when you would make an appearance. Hoping to come in here and become a hero are you?"

"Feh, I don't give a damn what happens as long as you're dead!"

"That is not likely. You do not have the strength to defeat me alone. You never will."

"He doesn't need it."

Inuyasha and Sesshomaru looked to the side of them. Out of the shadows came three figures. Sesshomaru's grin widened.

"Of course, your friends come to assist you."

"Shippou, Bankotsu, Miroku, how did you...?"

"Now isn't the time Inuyasha. Let's just kill this bastard and get back to the girls."

Inuyasha gave a nod. "I like the sound of that."

Kagome heard a knock on her window and jumped out of bed. Maybe Inuyasha was back. She went and opened it and in climbed in Blair, Sango, and a girl she didn't know.

"How did you guys get here?"

Sango grabbed her and hugged her. "Shippou still stays in touch with some of Inuyasha's supporters. He knew what was happening and found all of us."

"So, they are helping Inuyasha?"

"Yes."

Kagome cried happily. "I'm glad to see all of you."

Blair put her shoulder around the new girl. "This is Rin, Shippou's wife."

Kagome smiled. "You are a fox youkai? I didn't think their were many of you left."

Rin blushed. "Shippou and I hope to change that."

"I'm glad to hear it. I'm glad to see everyone is safe and well, but I am guessing it hasn't been this way the entire time you were gone?"

Sango frowned. "We were all separated. I didn't see Miroku for months, I didn't see any one I knew. We were all forced apart, blending in at different compounds."

"If it weren't for Shippou and Rin, we'd still be that way now."

Kagome pulled all of them into a hug again. "I know Inuyasha will be okay now. You all give me faith."

Inuyasha looked at all his friends. each doing a good amount of damage, but they were still human and injuries were taking a huge toll.

Sesshomaru was bleeding all over now and it was hard to tell who exactly the blood belonged to.

He still stood straight, too proud to show he was weakened. Inuyasha charged putting Tetsusaiga threw the youkai lord's heart.

Sesshomaru fell to his knees, still smirking. "You are stronger than I thought as were these humans. Perhaps the better side won."

Inuyasha removed his sword as Sesshomaru fell on his face.

He went around to each of his friends to check their injuries.

"Come on, Kagome can heal us when we get home."

Inuyasha waited for all of them to get to their feet. They went through the fortress and to the front door. All the guards had abandoned their posts and the place was empty.

"We should burn this place down." Bankotsu said behind him.

Inuyasha pulled a picture out of his pocket. The one Kagome had made of his feeding a duck so long ago. "Yeah, I think we should."
