Disclaimer: I wish, I wish, I wish. But no I do not own Inuyasha.


He felt it. He was even pretty sure that the entire world felt it. It was time, of that much he most definitely knew. After all, he had waited nearly two-hundred years for this. Of course the legends went way back, but who needed to get into that? He looked out of the rusted window with what could only be considered glee. It was finally time. By Kami, it was almost… time!

"My Lord," she called. He smirked, yes, the time was here.

"Yes, Celestria?"

"Are you ready to depart?"

"More than ready," He replied. And grabbing her by the waist, they were gone.


They floated above him, anxiously waiting the bloodbath that was sure to be released. He would get what he wanted. No one and nothing would stand in his way. Not even Kikyo.

He smiled slyly at her name. Kikyo. Yes, that woman. He knew what she had done to Onigumo. He knew how the pathetic thief lusted after her. Of course he would know, he was him. Or at least, part of him. His 'other half' so to say. He knew every wish, dream, want, thought, and feeling of him. And nothing irritated and frustrated him more.

He remembered that day. When he had gone to the half man/half vampire that was slowly being purified on the inside. He had made him an offer. An offer to restore his life to it's past 'perfect' way, to give him the ultimate power, to give him… Kikyo. Oh, how that infuriated him!

Out of all the things this stupid man could have, all he really wanted was "Kikyo". And through all these years his beloved Kikyo had been in love with a hanyou. Inuyasha was his name. He smirked to himself when he felt anger rise inside of him.

"You are truly a stupid fool," He said aloud. These type of conversations happened almost everyday, when he was truly bored.

'Is It time yet?'

"Yes. However, we're going to be arriving a bit… late," He smirked

'What? Why?!'

"Don't worry. You'll get to see your… precious Kikyo," He spat. The mere thought of her sent him into fuels of anger.

'I better Naraku. We had a deal demon!' Naraku chuckled darkly.

"We sure did, Onigumo, We sure did." With that he sped off. The horde of demons following him to see Onigumo's fucking precious Kikyo.


"You okay?" Sango asked.

"Yeah. Okay. Sure," Kagome responded. If she weren't already pale… well… now she was.

"Oh, Kagome! Come on! It wasn't that bad. It was quite enjoyable if you ask me," Rin exclaimed.

"Yes, because you would know exactly the levels of enjoyable, eh Rin?" Sango teased. And that made Kagome give a small snort then giggle. Rin looked right about the color of a fire truck.

"Sango!!" She scolded.

"What? Did I say something wrong? What about you Kagome, Did I say anything wrong?" Sango said, feigning innocence and winking at Kagome to go along.

"Well not that I know of. Unless little Rin interpreted your phrase wrong…?" Kagome played along.

"Oh, don't you give me that! My private life is none of your business!" Rin huffed then spun to face the other way.

"Really? Oh, I think it was everyone's business that day." Kagome and Sango went into a fit of laughter when Rin turned around with an open mouthed expression.

"Ugh! You guys are so intrusive!"

"Oh, no! Never. You're just very loud," Kagome laughed out. Sango looked to be turning purple…

"You know what?! Fine! I'm leaving!" Rin began to stomp away.

"No!... wait… please… hahaha" Kagome and Sango were leaning on each other for support by then.

Kagome and Sango were still slightly giggling when they caught up to Rin. And when they reached her and saw the look on her face, they decided it was time to stop.

"Okay, okay. We're sorry Rin," Sango apologized.

"Yeah, please don't be mad. We were just kidding," Kagome flowed in after.

"… Ah, It's okay," Rin stated; smiling.

"Knew you would forgive us," Sango said. Kagome was nodding happily with Sango.

"It's okay because in a few weeks… it'll be my turn," She replied proudly.

"What?!" Kagome and Sango replied simultaneously.

"Come on guys! Or we'll be late and they'll start nagging," Rin rushed.

"Now hold up Rin! What do you mean it'll be you—" Sango cut off sharply when she felt the ominous auras nearby.

"Sango? Sango, what's going on?" Kagome questioned.

"Sango!" Rin yelled in a tight voice; understanding Sango's reactions at once. And then Kagome felt it also. She looked to the sky and it seemed to be turning a dark gray.

"What should we do?" Kagome asked.

"I'm not sure," Sango answered.

"Should we go get the others?" Rin suggested. She was ready to burn off if the answer be yes.

"There's no time. They're catching on, fast," Sango stated, nodding her head back and forth.

"But there's so many. It's not possible to deal with it ourselves," Kagome panicked..

"Yes there is. 'Cause I'm going to be here also." All three female vampires turned around to come face-to-face with Kikyo.

"Kikyo!" Rin exclaimed. At that moment Kagome didn't really know if she felt relieved or… something else. It was damn good to see Kikyo, especially at a moment like this, but… Has she come back? For good? And then she wanted to slap herself. For the simple reason that she shouldn't be feeling jealous or bothered by Kikyo's mere presence. So with that in mind, she stuck those feelings to the very tiny corner of her head. Kikyo was here! Maybe they could win this.

But how? She was still inexperienced. Was there a possible way for Kikyo to help her with that? There probably was.

"Sango… Do you mind…? I mean I know I'm no longer on your good side, but, I figure this isn't a good time to hold grudges," Kikyo said gently.

"Your right, So let's hurry up and do this, so that way I can go back to hating you," Sango replied harshly. Kikyo flinched slightly but nodded her head. Rin gave her an apologetic expression, and Kagome looked guilty but said nothing.

"Kilala! Come before me from World of Hades!" Sango's pendant glowed brightly. She spun in a circle with an outstretched hand, a gust of fire following it. And then suddenly a giant cat demon stood before her. It had two, black striped, tails, and black covered paws in which were surrounded by fire. Her ears were black and so was the diamond shaped mark in the center of her forehead. The rest of the massive cat was a light golden color. It snarled then went to stand above Sango. Yes, above. Kagome gawked.

"Head to the mansion. Warn absolutely everyone in the group that they are needed here, now." Sango explained. Kilala seemed to nod her head and immediately took flight; seconds later, she was nowhere near eyesight.

"Are you sure she'll make it?" Rin asked.

"Has she ever failed?" Sango countered.

"Well…," Rin hesitated. In truth, no, Kilala never failed.

"I rest my case," Sango stated, grinning slightly.

"How does she fly?" Kagome asked; amazed.

"The fire around her legs," Sango, Kikyo, and Rin all answered.

"They are getting closer," Kikyo informed. The other three tensed.

"How much longer?" Rin questioned.

"I'm not sure. It's as if they were taunting us. They're taking their time," Kikyo explained.

"An estimated guess…?"

"Fifteen minutes. Twenty tops."

"That's good. The rest will be here by then," Sango responded. Kagome looked at Sango with a blank stare. What with her? In that precise moment Kikyo turned to look at her.

"Kagome… I'm going to ask you to do as I say, okay?" Kikyo stated gently. Kagome was startled at first but she gave Kikyo a determined nod.

"I'm going to have to store away your priestess half," Kikyo explained.

"What? But won't she need that half the most?" Rin asked.

"No. It seems that she has already gotten acquainted with her vampire half. She has, yet, to do the same with her priestess side. Am I right, Kagome?" Kagome gave Kikyo a shocked look.

"Well… I… Yes," She stuttered. How in the world did she know?

"I see. Well then, tense your muscles and lock yourself in place. It's going to feel as if it were trying to fight you, but only briefly,"

"Alright," Kagome responded; determination set in her voice. Kikyo narrowed her eyes slightly, and gave a proceeding nod. Kagome tensed.

Kikyo placed a finger on her pendant and began to glow. She stretched out a glowing hand and, lightly, placed it on Kagome's pendant. Immediately Kagome felt the pull, the abrupt shudder of her priestess side awaken and try to fight this new, ever powerful, invading, purifying light. However, just as quickly as it came; it was gone. And she could feel nothing but one power residing within her.

Somewhere along the process, Kagome had shut her eyes. As she reopened them she noticed how Kikyo seem to blink rapidly and her breathing seemed to be a bit quickened…

"Kikyo?" Kagome asked in worry.

"Is it absent?" Kikyo retorted.

"I… well, yes. But are you okay?" Rin and Sango had come to surround Kikyo in slight worry as well. Giving a soft laugh, she waved them off with her hand.

"I'm fine, don't worry. Though I suppose it's a good thing your untrained. It gave quite the battle," Kikyo explained. All three females gave her a confused expression.

"But… It was only for a second. And then I didn't feel it anymore," Kagome responded.

"However, for me, it was a long second. Your priestess side is very powerful. Even more so than me," Kikyo stated. Sango and Rin grinned at Kagome.

"Wow. We have the ultimate weapon," Sango teased. Kagome gave her a playful glare.

"So… How about you try something out with… what name does it go by?" Rin proceeded to give Kagome a wondering expression. Kagome looked confused. Was this supposed to come natural?

"I'm not sure… what you mean," Kagome answered.

"Huh? It's name, Kagome. You know, the certain thing you call it," Rin dragged on.

"I know what it is. But… I don't know."

"What do you mean 'you don't know'?" Sango questioned then.

"It said I had to figure it out on my own. That I would know when the time came," Kagome responded slowly.

"Well, then I suppose we could assist you with that." Throwing a barrier up immediately, Kikyo, along with the rest, turned abruptly to face their enemy.

"My, my. So touchy," Celestria chuckled out. Sango hissed at the sound of her voice.

"I would have to agree," Adam cut in. Kikyo stared in shock. David?

"We were like that in the beginning, too. Apparently David was not being the most honest person in the coven," Rin included.

"My deepest apologies, then. It seems I have offended you more than I ever wanted." What a perfect moment to arrive. Rin spun around to the direction of David's voice and, though she did not smile, her eyes sparkled with joy when she spotted her 'family'.

Kilala landed beside Sango and she grinned, "What a perfect moment to arrive. Good job, Kilala." Kilala growled in satisfaction and prepared to be pulled back into her owner's pendant's abyss.

"Not yet, Kilala. Evidently you're still needed here," Sango stated; stopping her giant cat. Kilala nodded and snarled towards Adam.

"Isn't this nice? The entire family, all together once more," Adam said, amusement spreading across his face and into the grin upon his lips.

"Family my ass," Shippo huffed. Miroku and Inuyasha chuckled.

"And of course, the adopted runts or other," Adam replied darkly. Shippo snarled at the David look-alike.

"What are you doing here now Adam?" David interrupted.

"Some brotherly love you hold," Adam replied. David simply stared in patience for his answer.

"It is the day, dear brother." And Kaiko seemed to want to choke. It couldn't possibly be what she thought it was. It was simply myth, it doesn't exist!

"You. Will. Not. Touch. Her," David growled out. And then their attention had been captured by the blackened sky and the immense auras. Kikyo gave one look, and then hissed.

"Well then, what kind of family reunion is this?" Inuyasha and Shippo raced to place themselves protectively in front of Kagome and Rin. Out of the black sky floated a pink barrier and everyone, but Kikyo, knew nothing of his identity. His hair cascaded in waves down his back, his skin seemed a snow pale, and his eyes were a bright, ruby red. Everyone knew what he was at the very first sight of him. Kikyo slowly made her way to the front of the group –careful to keep her distance from the… er… other David.

"You all seem to be… almost angry to see each other again. Aren't these things supposed to be harmonious and joyful?" The man taunted with a dark grin.

"Who the hell are you?" Inuyasha demanded. The man cocked an eyebrow, and then his grin seemed to spread more.

"Well… Why don't you ask lovely Kikyo? I'm sure she knows something." Rin asked herself if Miroku was going to pop out with, "he's gay", next.

'Kikyo? What does she have to do with this guy?' Inuyasha pondered. He couldn't seem to remember her mention anything about someone like this stranger. Then again, she never really told him anything.

"Kikyo?" Miroku pressed. Kikyo continued to glare hatefully at the man before her. Why hadn't he died again?

"This here is Onigumo. Pathetic, wreck-less ex-bandit," She explained coldly. Everyone still seemed confused. Kikyo never really bothered to explain her history to them. They figured Inuyasha knew, but it seemed even he was puzzled.

"You are right. But, as you said, that is Onigumo. I go by the name of Naraku now, dearest," He responded tightly.

"Either way, Naraku, you're supposed to be dead," Kikyo snapped.

"Such harsh words, but yes, I suppose you're right. However, it's not story time. So I suggest you tell me who Midoriko's priestess is," He bit out. Everyone knew that one, for hisses and snarls went around; some because of threat, others as warnings. We all know who is who.

"What is it to you who Midoriko's priestess is?" Miroku questioned sharply. Sango held onto his arm, cautioning him. Funny how, at a time like this, she decides to worry about him. Well, she did have her reasons.

"Not to be so disrespectful, but, I don't think that's any of your business," Naraku answered bitterly. What was it with these people and being nosy?

'There goes that damn hanyou!' Naraku averted his eyes to Inuyasha, and looked at him for the first time.

'Well I can see why she picked him over you.' He replied mentally; grinning physically. Onigumo roared from the inside.

'Too bad you're not into men,' Onigumo spat. Naraku's grin grew.

'Yes, too bad. Though the girl he seems to be protecting… I thought she was Kikyo at first…'

"You.," He pointed at Kagome. "I believe you're who I'm looking for." Everyone crowded protectively around Kagome, minus Adam and Celestria, of course.

"Why her?" Adam asked. He was positive that his 'adorable' niece was the next tenant. However, it wouldn't hurt to make absolute sure of that.

"Wouldn't you like to know duplicate," Naraku replied smartly. Adam smirked but Celestria snarled.

"Actually, I already do know. You see Naraku right? Well anyway, you're after my target. And, personally, I can't have that," Adam stated. Naraku raised an eyebrow and then chuckled.

"So duplicate wants the jewel?" Naraku grinned. So the second twin seems to be competition? Excellent.

"No. I will have the jewel," Adam growled. With that he released a crystal serpent from his left hand. When the serpent crashed with the trees they were crystallized and broken into pieces. Everyone scattered at that point. Celestria deciding it was her time to come into the picture and Naraku's demons decided the same.

"Maido!" and the fire dragon headed towards Kagome. She panicked; trying to find that small glitch in which her power was supposed to release at.

"Backlash Wave!" Kagome snapped her head up in time to watch the dragon turn to ash.

'I wonder why Adam's pendant didn't glow…' She wondered.

'He's a half breed. A very low class of vampire. As low, or perhaps lower, than those created by high level.' Her vampire side answered. Now Kagome understood, he didn't have the strong power like pure blooded vampires. So that's why he was after the jewel.

"Oi, wench! Why don't you use your legs to move next time, eh?" He yelled out above the roars and power releases.

"Kilala now!" Sango turned around and began to run –a group of demons following after. "Hiraikotsu!" The giant boomerang, structured bone went flying; killing the demons in the process.

"Naraku!" Kikyo yelled out. She sent an arrow of pure purifying light went flying towards him; it went by, missing him barely.

Kagome looked all around to the fights surrounded her. Several attacks were directed at her but she always managed to evade them. That's when she felt it. The abrupt, and powerful, pull at her spiritual powers and a slight burn to her vampire half. What was going on?

'Will you look at that… It seems you are the next tenant. Aw shit!' Her conscience complained. What was she going on about? What did that pull have to do with anything?

Suddenly everything around her stopped; froze in time, to be exact. Everything began to reel until she stood in front of a well. It looked familiar somehow, but from where she couldn't pin-point. She walked towards it hesitantly. When she reached the edge she looked into it and she wondered if there was an end to it. Everything was pitch-black inside that she leaned in further to try and look. Narrowing her eyes to see more clearly she thought she saw a small glowing light.

And suddenly, it wasn't a small light anymore. It began to sparkle, pulsing stronger and stronger, until it became an all out beam. Kagome backed away as it hesitated on the rim before it burst into the sky above her. Her eyes followed the beam as it went up and up before stopping in mid-air and coming back down full force. This time, however, it did not go back into the well. It seemed to be getting sucked in by a small glowing, pink orb.

When the beam of light was gone, the small sphere continued to glow and seemed to float in the air. Curiosity gaining the better of her she began to make her way towards it. She stopped abruptly when it glowed heatedly as if warning her to keep back. Kagome furrowed her eyebrows in confusion. What was that?

'I'm going to hell… well, we're going to hell,' Her head echoed.

'What is that? It's so shiny…,' She thought.

'And here I thought all of your human qualities had gone. Take a lucky guess.' Kagome rolled her eyes. But then the thought sunk in; slowly, gradually. The… Sacred Jewel?

'It is our duty to protect it.' Kagome jumped in surprise at the new voice in her head. Was she literally going crazy now?

'Who are you?'

'I'm your other half. Your priestess half, of course.' But how…?

'How did you manage to set free?' Suddenly the jewel was right in front of her face. It flickered brightly like a dying light bulb. What was wrong with it?

'Touch it…' Kagome looked at the jewel without trust, but unwillingly and cautiously stretched out her hand. When her hand smoothed over the surface it sent a jolt of electricity throughout her entire being, blinding her momentarily. And suddenly she could see the bindings Kikyo sealed her priestess side with; a second longer they withstood and they cracked, and then broke off completely.

'Just great…' The voice she recognized drawled. But Kagome had to admit: she felt whole again. When the light electric current stopped and she could see once again, she noticed her hand was still on the jewel. It glowed brightly.

"Kagome…" Said person gasped in surprised. It knew her name! Oh, lord. She was crazy.

"Um… Hi," she replied.

'Yes, Hello. How are you?... Now, good-bye!' The recognizable voice bit out sarcastically.

'Shh!' Yup. She was crazy.

"You seem… overwhelmed," It glowed.

"Yes, well, it's not everyday you talk to a… uh… glowing pink ball," She admitted. Though, she felt quite stupid soon afterward.

"I understand. However, I believe it's time I told you why you're here," It explained. She felt like nodding but, she seemed lucky enough that it could talk. There was apparently no need for eyes.

"Yes?" She inquired.

"Well that's quite simple; I called you here. My name is Midoriko. It would seem that you are one of my descendants and so, the next caretaker for the sacred jewel. I would tell you the entire story, but, I don't think that would be wise at this moment. But to make a story short: my soul has been in here for generations and I am in a never-ending battle with an evil demon. Your duty is to protect this jewel, in which I am forever enclosed in, with all of your will and powers. Should the jewel land in wrong hands it could be the most catastrophic thing on this planet." Kagome had gone from confused to determined quick. Evidently this was something not to take lightly. At all.

"But what about you? How will you ever truly find peace while you fight evil there and here? What with the outside demons and evil-doers who are trying to get their hands on you," Kagome asked.

"That, Kagome, is something you will discover in time." Kagome rolled her eyes. Why was everything suddenly dependant on time? "For now, however, you must focus on protecting the jewel. With the possession of the jewel in your hands it will be easier to develop and accustom your powers to one another. Don't rely on this too much. Your heart can sometimes hold darkness with your other nature and the jewel's powers could turn black.

You must train hard, Kagome. Your duty is not light, and I must apologize very much for this. I see you still have yet to discover your powers name…"

"I… um… I'm getting there," Kagome explained; laughing nervously.

"I see the reason now. You're very powerful indeed. Well now, dearest Kagome, I wish you the best of luck and I will take you back now," It replied.

"Good luck to you as well, Midoriko," Kagome commented in return.

"I'm afraid we'll both need it, good-bye." And with that the jewel glowed one last time, and she was pulled back into her present world. The one she recognized, at least. She felt half empty again. Had her priestess been bound up again?

"Wind Tunnel!" Kagome snapped her head in Miroku's direction. At least they were still fighting. She saw that her hand was closed and felt the jewel in her palm. Opening her hand she looked at the jewel in awe as it glistened in its shiny texture.

"At last, the moment I have been waiting for." Kagome looked at Adam as he looked in amazement, and greedily, at the jewel in her hand. Everyone stopped doing what they were. Naraku looking at the jewel in power lust, and as greedily as Adam.

Kagome pulled her hand closed sharply around the jewel. Her family and friends inching themselves around her protectively. Kagome continued to glare at Adam and Naraku; silently daring them to go to her and take the jewel.

"It seems you've been waiting for nothing. I have very bad news, for both of you. You're not getting this jewel, not now, not ever!" She snarled at them dangerously. Inuyasha and the rest looked surprisingly at her. Way to give a back bone, huh?

"Well, then. It looks like I'll just have to take it." Naraku flew at her at that precise moment. Adam intent on reaching her before him. Kagome began to panic, the closest one to her was Shippo, and even he was a good distance away.

"Kagome!!" David and Inuyasha yelled simultaneously.

'Now!'

'Huh?!'

'Say it, Kagome!' Now was not the time for guessing games!

'Say what? What are you talking about?!'

'Call out my name!'

'Your… name…' Her pendant glowed furiously against her skin. The power built up exponentially inside her, just waiting for her to release it. Her name…?

Her power reached its limit. Her pendant burned. Her powers true form flashed. Her powers name zipped by… Her brain clicked and she gave a loud gasp. Yu… zu… ki.

'Kagome… NOW!'

Kagome took a deep breath.

"Yuzuki!!"

'Yes!...'

Her power roared free, blinding everyone slightly with its intensity. Kagome looked at the giant black wings that appeared on her back in amazement. She felt the immense power radiating off her fingertips and itched to use it.

'Your name… it means Superiority Moon.'

'That's right. Ruler of the greatest white sphere in the galaxy.'

'Why do I have wings?'

'One of my gifts. Your welcome.' Yuzuki gave a small laugh. Kagome giggled along.

'I think they're ready for battle.' Kagome stated.

'Let's go.'

"You want the jewel? I dare you to come get it!" She yelled confidently. By then the others had gotten over their shock and prepared, once more, for battle.

"How stylish. But will it help you, little one?" Celestria challenged and called forth her ice, water, and air dragons.

"I highly doubt it," Adam went along. Two of his serpents appearing by his sides. Naraku seemed to grow giant tentacles oozing with purple residue. Once they sniffed they knew what it was; poison.

"Hey Shippo! Got some magic up your sleeves?" Kagome asked, positioning herself to battle. Shippo smirked at her knowingly.

"Ala-ka-zoo," He replied. Kagome smiled.

"On three," She started.

"Miroku!" Sango yelled.

"Got 'cha, Sango!" He yelled back, grinning.

"Rin…?" Kikyo questioned. Silently ashamed of asking her to fight by her side after what she had done.

"You got it, Kikyo," Rin answered. She gave Kikyo a bright warm smile, showing her that no harm was done. Kikyo smiled back just as brightly.

"Say Sesshomaru! Ready for this?" Kouga called out teasingly.

"Hn. Watch yourself wolf," He replied coldly. Kouga simply prepared and chuckled.

"Let's go, Kaiko," David prepared.

"Dearest, are you sure? He is your brother…," Kaiko asked. Reminding him of their situation.

"But she is my daughter," He replied. Kaiko smiled and nodded firmly then stared ahead.

"Time to kick stupid-ass butt! Countdown, Kagome!" Inuyasha called.

"… One!" Kagome yelled.

"… Two!" Shippo continued.

"…. Three!"

"Swirling Top of Giants!"

It came as natural as breathing to Kagome.

Wait for it…

Wait for it…

Wait… for… it…

Now!

"Shining Light of Craters!!"
