A/N: Sorry for the grammar and typos, our power went out and we're all sharing a hotel room so I wrote this quickly and don't have time to edit yet. I promise to do it when I have time, hopefully, tomorrow after school. Enjoy, anyway I have to go. Love you all, Happy Thanksgiving even though it's late.
Kikyo looked up at the man holding her, Inuyasha. He'd appeared, following the spiderwebs with that girl, Kagome. She'd gone ahead, looking for a bow, claiming she would right her mistake and save her. Kikyo wasn't sure, despite everything the girl still believed Inuyasha was in love with her. Despite the fact that over and over Inuyasha had proved his love of the girl, she held fast to her feelings of jealousy.
Kikyo stared off into space, thinking of Sesshomaru. She'd run quickly from him, Rin and Kohaku when she noticed the webs surrounding her. She couldn't risk Naraku defiling the last jewel shard, or getting his hands on Rin or Sesshomaru. "Inuyasha," Kikyo spoke. "Kagome, you need to go find her."
Inuyasha said nothing, but Kikyo saw the worry on his face as he picked up speed, heading towards the mountain. Inuyasha, she thought, he needed to tell the girl how he felt. He needed to let go of this ridiculous "love" he clung to. They stopped at the base of the hill, his group and the leader of the wolf demon tribe stood restless, waiting for Kagome's return.
"Go, Inuyasha." Kikyo said, he quickly sat her on the ground and began to run up the hill, chasing after his love. Kikyo glanced around as the webs slowly entangled her, she could no longer speak. Saimyoshi and a hoard of demons appeared.
"We must protect Lady Kikyo from Naraku."
Don't you realize, he's already got me. She slowly rose from the ground, the first one to notice her was the monk. He tried to hold her down, but the webs pulled them both up until he was forced to let go. She shot through the air, flying away from the group, as she was dragged away she caught sight of Inuyasha, he had appeared with Kagome.
She closed her eyes with resolve as she flew through the air and soon landed in Naraku's arms. She kept her eyes closed, feigning unconsciousness, she would purify Naraku and the Sacred Jewel together in one blow. She and Kagome, with her last ounce of strength she would destroy the one man she hated more than anyone.
Sesshomaru flew through the sky, that damn Kikyo, she'd masked her aura, she didn't want to be found. Earlier, while he was fighting some of Naraku's demons she up and ran away. When he turned back her presence had disappeared completely and still he couldn't find her.
Kohaku, Rin, and Jaken were safe in the barrier of her Shikigami, but she was an open target. How could she be so reckless? How could she put herself in this amount of danger? Something caught his attention, Naraku, he changed direction. His rage boiled, he'd kill Naraku, then he'd find Kikyo and they would live peacefully.
Kikyo felt a familiar presence, Koga appeared along with Inuyasha's group. She opened her eyes and saw Kagome reaching for an arrow, she only had one more, not yet.
Kagome seemed to understand what she meant, she took her hand off of the arrow and sat back watching the fight.
Kikyo turned to Naraku, I'll kill you, you bastard. She let Naraku pull her closer and she slipped her hand towards the Sacred Jewel. One of Naraku's tentacles grabbed her and ripped her away from him.
Naraku let out a cruel laugh. "Hahaha, Kikyo your hatred of me was so strong that I could feel it through my body. If only you didn't hate me like you did, you might have succeeded in killing me. He threw her to the ground, her eyes closed once again, she tried to summon all of her strength. Naraku believed he had succeeded, she smiled slightly. Then, she felt another familiar presence, she looked up and saw Sesshomaru, he swung his sword towards Naraku. He hadn't seemed to notice her yet, all of his attention was focused on Naraku. She noticed his aura flaring, he seemed angry, determined.
She felt her strength leaving her, she needed to show her aura, she needed all of her power for what was to come.
Kagome searched desperately for the jewel, she needed to shoot it, to purify it. Kikyo had talked constantly of it, she knew that was what she wanted her to do.
Kikyo drew on the last of her strength, allowing her aura to spill out. Sesshomaru turned his head, Kikyo had appeared. Naraku's tentacle shot into him and he stared down at Kikyo, she was dying. He disconnected from Naraku easily and tried to make his way to her, Naraku blocked his path.
"Kikyo!" Kagome dropped to her knees and looked over the cliff down at her limp body. "Kikyo tell me what to do!" Kagome caught sight of the jewel lying on Kikyo.
Now.
Kagome drew back an arrow and shot it towards the Jewel. Everyone gasped as her arrow connected with the jewel and it disappeared.
Kikyo used all of her strength and shot the arrow along with the jewel towards Naraku.
"What?" Naraku's eyes widened as the arrow purified all of his appendages. The jewel connected with his body and it was instantly defiled. "Hah, hahaha, Kikyo you failed, you used all of your strength and you failed."
We will know if I truly failed when the final shard connects with the jewel. She felt the life leaving her, the strength slowly draining from her. Naraku continued to laugh and disappeared into the sky.
Sesshomaru flew down to her, but as he landed he noticed that the life had left her body. Kikyo had died, a white light spread from her, all of the poisonous and tainted air from Naraku was purified and the light spread further. Many balls of light rose to the sky, the souls of the lost women she had absorbed. A bright ball flew towards Kagome and she absorbed it back into her body. Sesshomaru picked up Kikyo's clay body and rose to the sky, leaving behind his younger brother and his friends. He felt tears form in his eyes as he realized he had been too late.
A/N: Hey, so I got it all edited, turns out the power at my school is out too so I got the day off. I know, you guys want to kill me for not writing a super sweet death scene for her with Sesshomaru like Takahashi did with Inuyasha. Here's the deal, this death was significant for everyone, for all of Inuyasha's group and to let the death affect all of the characters like it did originally and affect Sesshomaru I needed a way for them all to experience the death at once. And, I mean, let's be honest, if Sesshomaru got there before she died he'd want a private goodbye with her, and definitely not Inuyasha and his friends watching from the sidelines. But, I am sorry, I wanted them to have a sweet death scene, but don't worry I'll make it up to you with the ending. :)))
Okay, one last thing, I know saying Naraku laughed and then writing hahaha is weird I guess, but if you heard Naraku's laugh in the Japanese sub you'll understand what I mean when I say he literally does the hahaha.
