''Naraku...you seem Distracted...says Sakura

''Lord Sesshomaru your time has run out. Your demonic powers...your Strong demonic powers...[the fallen pieces of flesh jump up and envelopes Sesshomaru] ''Will soon be mine...[He smiles at Sakura] ''And then I will Possess the Fire Demon and make her mine says Naraku

[Sakura glares at him when she gasps seeing the Flesh around Sesshomaru begins to enveloped by the fallen tentacles, which grip onto him tightly ]

''Sesshomaru...Look out says Sakura

[Peeping out from a pillar, thinking.] ''Lord Sesshomaru...that's bad...He's going to be absorbed...[Panics and runs out] Lord Sesshomaru says Jaken

[A Tentacle crawls towards Jaken. He spews fire from his staff] ''take that! [The Tentacle burns red, leaps and chases Jaken he was runs away] ''Stop says Jaken

[Sakura jumps over to Sesshomaru who was completely covering him she was afraid for his life...she begins to use her Powers.]

''Fire Bomb blast [The Tentacles around Sesshomaru falls off him which his head was uncovered he looks at her in anger she freezes] ''Sesshomaru...says Sakura

''You will leave...Don't stay here leave me to take care of Naraku...says Sesshomaru

[She was hurt that he didn't see that she was trying to help him...] ''But...Sesshomaru I can get you out says Sakura

[He narrows his gaze his voice was full of Hunger] ''I will not have you in danger...Leave now says Sesshomaru

[She was shaking trying not disobey him but before she can get away Naraku's Tentacles wraps around her dragging her away she screams...]

''Lady Sakura...I wouldn't be worried about Sesshomaru because Soon He will be in my body and then I shall take your memories of him with my own body says Naraku

''I will not let you touch me...I would rather die says Sakura

[His Tentacles are thrust into the Tentacles that cover Sesshomaru...Sakura was crying as the tentacles seem to be absorbing something from Sesshomaru]

[Laughs] 'Finally...A Strong demon's power is finally mine says Naraku

[Leaps above Naraku] ''Naraku! Is this your original form? says Inuyasha

''Inuyasha! says Sakura

''Inuyasha says Naraku

''watch this! [Swings Tetsuaiga downwards] ''Wind Scar! says Inuyasha

[Throws a Wind Scar at Naraku] ''As if that works! says Naraku

[A Pink barrier surrounds Naraku. The Wind Scar strikes the barrier and the ground splits. The Barrier gradually gets dissipated by the Wind Scar, which then cuts Naraku's body. releasing Sakura from his grip]

''[Shocked, Thinking] ''Why...My Barrier...says Naraku

[Lands with Tetsusaiga reverted to its normal color] ''I've finally found you, Naraku! You shall meet your doom today says Inuyasha

''What a Joke, like you're capable of that! says Naraku

[Appears above on her feather thinking] ''It'd be a tough fight between Inuyasha and Naraku. [Notices The Tentacle Sesshomaru on the ground, shocked thinking.] ''that is...Did Naraku really absorb Sesshomaru's energy? So...Inuyasha, Sakura they will have to be the one to kill Naraku before Naraku fully absorb the energy, Inuyasha won't stand a chance after that. says Kagura

[Thinking] ''I've miscalculated...I've never thought Inuyasha would make it this far. [Laughs] ''Inuyasha...You became strong enough to break through my barrier. says Naraku

''Naraku...I'll see where you'll hide from this [Sprints Towards Naraku] Meet your doom! says Inuyasha

[Scoffs] ''No matter how good you are, You'll never be as good as me. Prove yourself says Naraku

[Naraku's Tentacles attack towards Inuyasha who leaps and slashes them with Tetsusagia suddenly a blue barrier appears around Naraku freezing him He stiffens turning his gaze to Sakura who's eyes were closed then they snap open as the Blue barrier begins to burn his Tentacles to pieces]

''Sakura...[Naraku's angry as he sends a Tentacle to grab Sakura around the waist but she leaps out of the way Inuyasha leaps in the air and fires off another Wind Scar.] Take this says Inuyasha

[The pieces fall on the ground. Inuyaha continues sprinting towards Naraku]

''Here's another one! says Naraku

[Slashes the Tentacles] ''Damn you! Naraku [As Inuyasha is sprinting, the fallen pieces of the Tentacles suddenly fly up and envelope Inuyasha, like Sesshomaru.] ''what's going on? says Inuyasha

'You'll share the same fate as Sesshomaru. says Naraku

''What? Sesshomaru...? says Inuyasha

[Notices the throbbing Tentacle Sesshomaru behind Naraku]

''[Scoffs thinking] ''I was wrong Naraku is still too strong for him says Kagura

''It's too late Inuyasha. Sesshomaru is already a part of me. I wonder how strong You'll make me. We can always try though. It'd definitely make me more powerful. says Naraku

''I won't be like him! [Inuyasha struggles and finally he manages to slash them away with Tetusaiga Naraku is shocked. Inuyasha sprints towards Naraku.] ''Meet your doom! You'll die in my hands! Watch this! says Inuyasha

[Inuyasha throws a Wind Scar at Naraku, which strikes his body and the Tentacle's that has engulfed Sesshomaru behind him.]

''[Shocked] ''What...says Naraku

''[Crying] ''Lord Sesshomaru...says Sakura

[Crying burying his face into his clothes] ''Lord Sesshomaru...says Jaken

[Suddenly Sesshomaru cuts away the Tentacles around him with Tokiijin he is still intact.]

''Sesshomaru...Says Sakura

[Glad, ecstatic] ''Lord Sesshomaru! says Jaken

[Steps forwards and squashes a tentacle on the ground, Scoffs] ''Naraku...what a joke...your own Flesh was protective enough to Protect me against Inuyasha's Wind Scar. says Sesshomaru

[Naraku, with his arms cuff doesn't reply]

[Runs next to Sesshomaru] ''Get lost! Just leave Naraku to me! says Inuyasha

''He is my prey says Sesshomaru

''Are you kidding? What do you know? says Inuyasha

[Zooms next to Sesshomaru] ''I've told you, he's my prey says Sesshomaru

''What? says Inuyasha

[Sesshomaru throws an aura at Naraku with Tokijin. Naraku winces as the aura hits him He growls angrily. Suddenly A Miasma bursts from his body and surrounds him. Sesshomaru, Sakura and Inuyasha leap back]

[Covering her mouth with her sleeve] ''Poisonous gas! says Sakura

[A Horde of Poison Insects fly out of the Miasma. the Miasma turns into a vortex and fly in the sky.]

[Kohaku is standing still inside the Hut holding Rin's hand]

'Kohaku...says Rin

[Kagura follows the poison insects on her feather.] ''Naraku has vanished and so is my chance at freedom...says Kagura

[She flies away. Inuyasha sheaths Tetsusaiga] ''He's gone. Naraku actually managed to escape! He was seriously Injured too. Where can he have disappeared to? [turns to Sesshomaru] ''Hey Sesshomaru! did Naraku capture a friend of yours as a Hostage? a girl named Rin? says Inuyasha

''I am not going to talk to you [Inuyasha thumps Jaken many times on the head] ''It's a long story...says Jaken

''Well make it short says Inuyasha

[Outside the Hut. Demons fly towards the rest of Inuyasha's friends. Sakura is desperate to find Rin and save her as she senses the Shard of the Jewel seeing Kagome and the others.]

''Kagome...says Sakura

[Kagome turns seeing her friend she runs over to her and hugs her Sakura surprised falls over from her sudden move]

''Ahh...Sakura...I've been so worried about you says Kagome

''We should be able to catch up! I can feel the Sacred Jewel fragment nearby! says Kagome

''Inuyasha! says Sango

[Piggybacking Kagome] ''We'll make a move! Don't want to lose them. says Inuyasha

[In A Deep Forest, Kohaku is walking, holding Rin's hand.]

''Where's this place? why did you bring me here? I thought I saw people eariler Kohaku! says Rin

[Kohaku doesn't reply suddenly something within him pulsates. He gasps and stops. the Sacred Jewel Fragment in his back glows. An image of Naraku flashes momentarily in his mind.]

[in his head] ''Kill her...says Naraku

[Kohaku grips Rin's hand tightly and pulls her towards him. He raises his sickle chain. an Image of Naraku flashes again as Kohaku looks at Rin with glazed eyes. Rin is taken aback. Just before Kohaku can slash the sickle at her someone grabs Rin into her arms as Sakura tackles her away from him...Rin screams in shock as they fall to the ground she looks at her hand and then at Sakura who was bleeding on her shoulder]

''Sakura...you came for me says Rin

''You should always know That me or Sesshomaru will always be here for you says Sakura

[She turns to Kohaku who was just standing in the same spot. Kohaku then looks behind him where Sesshomaru looks on in silence. Kohaku turns around and points his sickle at him. Sesshomaru brandishes his claws]

''Oh...you point your blade towards me? says Sesshomaru

[Appears at the scene] ''Kohaku! [Punches Kohaku's face] Snap out of it [Kohaku winces and falls backwards to the ground.] ''What's the wrong with you fool? says Inuyasha

[Kagome runs over to Sakura and Rin seeing there was a wound on Sakura's shoulder from where she took the blow meant for Rin. Kagome touches it as Sakura winces]

''Ah Kagome don't that hurt says Sakura

''Sorry I am so glad you got here in time...I was worried says Kagome

[Looks at Sesshomaru thinking] ''Just in time...[faces Sesshomaru] ''That's right! Sesshomaru! You can't Kill Kohaku says Inuyasha

''Stay out of this Inuyasha This boy seems compelled to die at my hand says Sesshomaru

[Looks at Kohaku in Frustrated manner thinking] ''Was that Naraku's order? For him to fight Sesshomaru knowing he'll be killed says Inuyasha

[Kohaku sprints towards Sesshomaru and swings his sickle chain. Inuyasha rushes in front of Kohaku and knocks the sickle away. Sesshomaru zooms forward and grabs Kohaku by the neck, raising him high up in the air. Sakura gasps]

[to Inuyasha] ''How considerate of you Inuyasha I didn't realize you had such strong feelings for me? says Sesshomaru

[Points Tetsusaiga at Sesshomaru] ''Stop that crap! I'll chop off your arm if you don't let him go! says Inuyasha

[Sesshomaru tightens his grip on Kohaku's neck]

''Don't do it Sesshomaru...Kohaku is being controlled by Naraku...You will be playing into his hands and I know you don't want that says Sakura

''Don't do it, Sesshomaru! says Inuyasha

[Glares at the expressionless Kohaku thinking.] ''This boy...can't even feel the pain...nor show his fear...how Irritating...says Sesshomaru

[He drops Kohaku to the ground. Inuyasha, Sakura and Kagome look at Sesshomaru. Rin wakes and rubs her eyes.]

''You're awake? says Kagome

[Glad] ''Lord Sesshomaru!...Sakura! [Notices Kohaku] ''Kohaku...says Rin

[Kohaku suddenly grabs his sickle-chain and runs off. Sesshomaru doesn't move]

''Oi...you're not gonna after him, right? says Inuyasha

[Sesshomaru continues looking in the direction that Kohaku went and sees Kagura appears on her feather, with Kohaku and flies away swiftly.]

''Kagura...says Sakura

[Stands to Sesshomaru] ''I want to thank you...thanks for letting Kohaku go...says Kagome

''that boy...was ready to die at my hand says Sesshomaru

''Sesshomaru...you knew that? says Inuyasha

[Turns to Inuyasha] ''I just didn't want to fall into Naraku's trap...says Sesshomaru

[Sesshomaru turns around and walks off. Rin runs after Sesshomaru noticing that Sakura wasn't following Sesshomaru turns around looking at her seeing she was uncertain if she wanted to follow him after what he tried to do but she looks at Rin knowing she was the reason why she needed to go she sighs looking at Inuyasha and Kagome]

''It was nice to see you guys again...I wish I can stay longer...says Sakura

''Sakura...You don't have to go if you don't want to...says Kagome

''You don't owe him anything...says Inuyasha

[Sakura looks at Sesshomaru sadly knowing she has no choice. Sesshomaru continues to stare at her until he turns and walks away with Rin.]

''Maybe we will see each other again...I have to go and look after the girl...My fate lies with Sesshomaru says Sakura

''Oh Sakura...I wish you can travel with us but if your destiny is with him then go where your heart is taking you. says Kagome

[Sakura smiles a little then hugs Kagome then she pulls out a sack inside with four jewel shards and gives them to her. Inuyasha was stunned]

''Where did you find these? says Inuyasha

''they were on Naraku's body I tried to take the Jewel but It wasn't meant to be...I am sorry says Sakura

''Don't be sorry You all done your best that is all we can ask for...We will see you again Sakura says Kagome
