MY GOD! I thought I would never be able to up date! Has someone had trouble receiving alerts, or posting chapters? I HAVE! -sigh- I think it's a sign saying I shouldn't update anymore, ne? It's been too hectic here at my house, and I really need tons of breaks, so please excuse my never-ending late updates. I really hope no one else is having a shittier day then me… So Here's Denied Love!
Recap:
Omonice clouds loomed the sky, the millions of demons quieting so fast like a sudden erupture would just stop.
Sesshomaru, Inuyasha, Kikyo, Miroku, Sango, and Naraku were pushed aside by the waves of pure hatred rolling off of Kagome.
Her hair seemed to grow longer, nails growing to menacing claws, eyes covered, making them wonder what color would they be.
She lifted her head back, yelling out her broken heart to the thundering clouds. The rocks fizzled with power, the earth bursting, trees roots grasping the ground, everything shifting out of control.
"NARAKU!" A demonic voice boomed, making everyone catch themselves.
Naraku lifted his head, his long black hair flying behind him. He didn't expect any of this to happen. He wasn't prepared for her kind of power.
Kagome's hair whipped behind her, her sadistic smile and blood red orbs sending chills down everyone's spines. She took a small step towards him, before disappearing all together.
"Oh...Shit." Naraku thought, before feeling someone behind him.

Chapter 21
-----------Unleashed------------
Naraku barely dodged Kagome's punch by a centimeter. Although, he still felt himself get pushed back by the sheer force of it.
He narrowed his eyes in consumption. All of this wasn't going according to his plan. He ducked yet another blow, this time his form moving forwards towards where the forest was. His speed was faster than the group could see, it didn't prove much help, Kagome easily catching up with more speed than he thought.
The forest came into view, Naraku jumping on the trees to give him more ground. He jumped off a branch, moving to the right to avoid Kagome's super charged punch that exploded the tree he was just on.
He couldn't avoid the high-kick Kagome sent his way, hitting him square in the jaw. Naraku fell back, crashing into another branch.
He picked himself up, left hand rubbing his jaw. Yup….it was broken alright.
Kagome jumped high in the air, than flipped once before coming down with a powerful downwards swing using both her legs, her strength and her momentum made Naraku kneel from the pressure of it. The tree branch beneath them buckled and broke off sending both of them falling to the forest floor.
Naraku formed a platform of demonic energy which he managed to stand on, stopping his fall. (Like Sesshy's Cloud except not Sesshy and not a cloud, more like his barrier only bottom part of it!)
Kagome stuck out her hands, huge amounts of wind surrounding her lower body. She seemed to levitate towards another tree branch before rushing towards the evil half-demon.
-----------
"GET BACK!" Inuyasha yelled, just as trees behind the group exploded in splinters and shrapnel, wisps of energy emitting from Kagome's body damaging anything in sight.
No one, not even Sesshomaru, dared to get in between this fight. They couldn't even compare to Kagome's power, much less fight beside it.
Kikyo bit her lower lip. "The plan isn't going to work!" She though inwardly. She swallowed, her eyes trying to keep up with their movements. Specifically her reincarnations. "She's not your reincarnation anymore."
Her inner (evil) self was right. That demon wasn't her reincarnation.
Another gush of air swept the group, pushing them a few inches back.
"Kagome…." Trailed of Sango, eyes filled with worry. She clutched Kilala's unconscious form closer to her heart, finding little comfort. She turned to her right, feeling Miroku's hand surprisingly on her shoulder.
"Sango, I am worried for her too, but you must admit. We can not do anything but be in Lady Kagome's way." He explained, speaking out for everyone in the group to hear.
"Kagome," both Sesshomaru and Inuyasha thought, their sun-kissed orbs slowly following her movements. If they were lucky, they could catch a glimpse, but other than that, it was really pointless.
Sesshomaru felt a tug at his leg. "Sesshomaru-sama, Rin wants Kagome-chan back!" sobbed Rin, looking up with tear filled eyes. Sesshomaru nodded in agreement, letting his hand rest on her head. "Come back to us, Kagome."
----------
Kagura gritted her teeth, demonic eyes narrowing. "The wench is winning! That's not possible!"
"Kagura."
Said person snapped her head towards the eerie voice. "Kanna, what have I told you about doing that!" She hissed, angry at being sneaked on.
Kanna just brushed it off, her attention wrapped on the fight. "Kagome is winning." She stated as if commenting on dry paint. "Will you help Naraku?"
Kagura seemed to be lost in though, not really sure what to do. "If Naraku starts to win, he will squeeze my heart till I'm an inch away from death. But if she wins…"
Kagura sighed, gripping the edges of her fan. "We will wait and see if our services are needed." Kanna slightly titled her head, indicating she understood.
"Wait and see."
---------
Kagome rushed towards Naraku, bringing back her arm. Naraku jumped high in the air, his tentacles pooling out a huge amount of miasma. It surrounded Kagome, cocooning her in what everyone assumed to be a whirlpool of death.
"KAGOME!" Inuyasha and Miroku yelled. Sango's shout stuck in her throat, memories of Kohaku lifeless eyes looking at her
Sesshomaru eyes widened, strange feelings bursting with scorching pain. Was this the human emotion called worry?
Fear?
Love?
Rin's whimpers seemed to escalate, her tears dripping down her face.
"Kagome…" whispered Sesshomaru. His eyes narrowed back to his original look, grabbing the hilt of Tokijin. Across from him he saw Inuyasha's hand reach for Tetsusaiga.
Both turned to each other, sharing a hidden message. Inuyasha ran into the battlefield, drawing Tetsusaiga back as far as he could.
"Wind Sc-"
Inuyasha's eyes widened, stopping his attack. He turned around and looked back at Sesshomaru, another message passing between them. It seemed like everyone's attention was on the miasma. It's usually sickly purple color, started turning to a light blue, than a lighter green. Multitude of colors seemed to mix with the miasma, all-coming from the being inside.
Naraku clenched his fist, he did not like where this was going. This was his strongest miasma. It should have killed her in two minutes tops. It was not supposed to change colors!
The miasma seemed to fade, the display of colors dying down. Once lay a field filled with moist grass, now laid rotting dirt. The center of the miasma stayed perfectly same, along with the person who stood there.
Kagome's stance did not look happy, eyes backing up that fact. Naraku seemed to back up, ready for another round. She brought both her clawed hands in a X like position over her chest, before running towards Naraku with amazing speed.
Kagome pushed her hands out, hitting Naraku with a more powerful version of Blades of Blood. She jumped back, coming at him again. Naraku seemed prepared for this onslaught of attacks. He dug his feet into the ground, hunching over a little to keep from getting the full-blown version of the attack.
"Dance of Blades!"
Kagome turned her head to the side as she saw a gust of wind blades approaching her.
She raised her hand and with her own wind manipulation sent her attack right back at her with almost three times the force.
Kagura, eyes wide in disbelief barely had enough time to put her fan infront of her, allowing it to take the brunt of the attack. Even so, a large, yet not to deep gash formed at a diagonal angle, going from her left hip to her right shoulder as one of the wind blades tore through her weapon of choice, and others nicked her sides, arms and legs.
Needless to say her weapon was useless.
Kagome then turned to the side as another attack, from a puppet(1) with blades for arms tried to strike at her. She criss-crossed her arms to block, and with a vicious kick to the puppets chest, pushed it back with an audible crack as its chest area caved from the force of her blow.
She looked at her arms, deep gashes were formed from the wrist all the way to the elbow. She didn't have a look of pain about her, just a concentrated look. In seconds, the gashes seemed to heal rapidly, no scars left.
Kagome appeared behind Naraku and delivered a vicious hit to the back of the evil hanyou's head, faster than what his barrier could react Naraku was sent flying.
He hit another tree with a vicious and resounding 'crack'. His barrier couldn't even catch up with him in order to cushion his fall.
He leapt up, once again forming a platform of demonic energy, rising high about the treetops, heading towards all the demons that he seemed to command.
Kagome who couldn't reach him, calmly watched from her spot, blood red eyes following his every move.
A few seconds passed before Kagome back flipped in order to avoid a pillar of Naraku's demons that broke through the tree she had been standing on.
As she moved through the air, Naraku seized the opportunity and got behind her, with another puppet appearing infront of her. He charged from behind as he had the puppet move in from the front.
However, before he managed to get within three feet, his opponent spun around and launched a barrage of punches, sending him back. She kicked out with her left foot, hitting the puppet right in the face, before sending it more kicks till it was destroyed.
She roared once, catching sight of Naraku as she dived in a freefall towards he hanyou.
Naraku braced himself, spreading out hands in a catching position and with a violent crash Kagome slammed into him, the two of them breaking the tree branch and rocketing towards the forest floor.
Kagome stabbed one of her claw like hands deep into Naraku's rib cage while using her right hand, to pound away at Naraku's face.
Naraku raised his own claw like hand and struck Kagome, sending her flying, slamming her into another tree and then sending his demons to pin her their.
Kagome let out a battle cry, using hours upon hours of training with her powerful grandma, to melt the demons with a huge miko blast and then breaking free. Not even their ashes remained. Kagome dusted herself off, before running at Naraku once more.
Naraku gritted his teeth, this girl was unbelievable.
---------
(1) The puppet is one of Naraku's puppet thingy's... ya know the ones that look like him. Hmm..I think he has a fetish of himself or something...
