This should be the last part of the main fight. If not, I suck at predicting when my own stories will end. Enjoy!

I slammed against a pile of concrete, and fell into a ditch.

Sara had become a youkai, and was now kicking our butts, no longer thinking about how she might look to Ryuu.

I grunted, as I pulled myself up onto my hands and knees.

"Still alive are you?" Demonic snarls mixed with the evil voice.

I looked up.

Sara was standing just a little ways from the ditch, looking down at me.

I glared up at her, not sure what I could do.

Ryuu jumped up onto her shoulder, and tried to strike her neck.

She grabbed him, easily, laughing the whole time.

"Be still, my love." She said. "Once she's gone, your suffering will end. You and I will be free to live together... forever."

Ryuu struggled to free himself.

I climbed out of the ditch, and spotted Kagome. She was unconcious, lying by the shrine for the Bone-Eater's Well. She wouldn't be able to fight anyway. Her left ankle was twisted, and her right arm was broken during the battle.

I was a mere hanyou child, and I couldn't scratch Sara if I tried.

Ryuu would be strong enough to do some damage, but, he was stuck.

We had one hope left. And I was sure it would end it all.

I had to make sure Ryuu was free to move, first.

I placed all the fingers of my right hand on my injured eye, getting them covered in blood, and then readied them for an attack I had never managed before.

"Hijin Kesso!" I yelled, throwing the blood on my claws.

The blood turned into red blades, and struck Sara's wrist.

After a second her hand came off, and fell to the ground.

She screamed a demonic scream of pain.

I went to the hand that fell. Ryuu was working to get out of it.

"Nice work, Mori!" Ryuu said. "Help me out, so that I can help you fight."

I shook my head slowly.

"Rin won't be fighting anymore." I said.

"What're you saying? You're not giving up, are you?" Ryuu asked.

I smiled.

"Rin is not giving up. Rin know's you will win this fight... Sesshoumaru-sama." I said.

Ryuu's eyes widened with horror.

I placed a gentle kiss on his lower lip, and backed away.

"MORI! NO!" Ryuu was yelling at me.

"I love you, Ryuu-kun." I said. "And Rin loves her Sesshoumaru-sama!"

I looked up at Sara, who was beginning to recover from her injury.

"MORIIIIIIIIII!" Ryuu screamed at me.

I took a deep breath. "SARA-HIME!" I yelled.

She looked at me. "Sara-hime!" I called.

Almost instantly, I faded away...

Ryuu / Sesshoumaru's POV:

"MORI! NO!" I yelled.

She continued to smile like she was giving me a gift.

"I love you, Ryuu-kun!" Mori said. "And Rin loves her Sesshoumaru-sama!"

She turned her attention to Sara.

"MORIIIIIIIIIIII!" I yelled.

She took a deep breath.

"SARA-HIME!" Mori yelled.

My breath hitched. She'd done it.

Sara looked at her. Was there still time to save her?

I struggled to get out of the giant hand.

"Sara-hime!" Mori said again.

I looked over as I began to slide out of the hand.

Mori stood still for a brief moment.

Then, she wobbled, and fell over.

"MORI!" I yelled, sliding out of the hand.

I ran to her, and fell to my knees beside her.

Her ears and tail melted away, and she grew into her human form.

I picked her up, easily.

She barely weighed anything. The other mind in my head, once belonging to her dog, Zuka, said that this was a result of regaining my youkai strength.

Neither of us really cared. Mori was gone. Zuka had memories of the first three times she had died. They were nothing compared to this.

She had given her life for us. So that we could win this battle.

Zuka never thought she would ever be put in such a situation. He was feeling guilty that he had let her fall into it.

Tears spilled from my eyes, and I held Mori close to my aching chest.

I never considered being in this kind of danger, let alone being the reason Mori was in it.

"Fear not, my love." came Sara's voice, now becoming human again. "It will only hurt for a little while. Come! I can make it all better!"

I felt rage like no other, boiling up inside me.

Zuka's mind became a monster within me. It wanted to tear this woman to shreds, from the inside out.

I only wanted her to leave us alone. And, I suppose, the youkai knew how get that.

I kissed Mori, to find my strength.

At that moment, I felt something sharp in her mouth, and pulled back to look.

She still had to canine fangs.

Zuka knew what they were.

"Tenseiga? Bakusaiga?" I said.

He took control of my hand, and carefully pulled those fangs out of her mouth.

They became swords in my hand.

She not only had the rest of my youkai. But my weapons, too.

I gripped those swords in my hand.

"Arigatou... Mori..." I said. "I'll finish this battle... And I'll join you in the afterlife... I swear."

I gently put her down, stood up, and turned to face Sara.

"Darling?" She said. "What's the matter?"

I took Bakusaiga in my right hand, and pointed it at her.

Sara looked horrified.

I reared back, and struck her with it. She tried to dodge, and lost her arm, screaming in pain as she tried to run.

I put Bakusaiga back in my left hand, and flicked my wrist toward Sara.

Just like that, a whip of light flew out of my finger tips, and sliced Sara in half.

She screamed in pain for a while.

I sat with Mori, holding her until Sara finally gave in, and died.

Mori's parents, younger sibblings, and friends came over to us.

Her mother began crying. Everyone else hung their heads, fighting tears.

Kagome was coming around, and her mother helped her join us.

Kagome looked like she might start crying too.

I picked up Bakusaiga, and pointed it at my chest.

I was ready to die. I was going to strike.

"Wait!" Kagome said.

I looked at her. "Why should I?" I asked. "The only reason I've ever had for living is gone. Why should I go on in this world?"

"Because you can still save her!" Kagome said.

I stared at her. "That's Tenseiga, right?" Kagome asked. "Tenseiga is a healing sword. It can bring her back to life."

Memories of such a sword passed through my head.

"How do you know of this?" I asked.

"I knew your past life." Kagome said. "I've seen Tenseiga's effects."

I put Bakusaiga down, and picked up Tenseiga.

Everyone was watching me.

I set Mori down, gently, and stood up.

Imps appeared around her, carrying scythes, and other such weapons.

I raised Tenseiga, and struck them all down in one swing.

A few, tense moments passed. Then, I could hear something. Low, slow, and steady, I heard a heart beating...

Hijin Kesso - Flying blades of blood.

Finally! I feel good about this story again! But, then, what do you care? You're not even gonna read these notes. Please, review!
