Chapter 3: The Fight for Kikyo
Inuyasha gazed into Naraku's eyes. Then he looked up at Kikyo. He stepped back. Sesshomaru started to walk towards Naraku. He stopped and said, "What do you want. I will make a trade for the girl." Naraku smiled and said, "Nothing. The girl will be dead soon, so there is nothing worth the excitement of watching the look on your brother's face when the chamber breaks and her limp body falls to the ground." "You bast***! You vile fiend! How could you do this?" screamed Sesshomaru. Inuyasha gazed at Kikyo. Then, he felt a hand on his shoulder. He looked up to see Sango smiling at him. She said, "It'll be alright Inuyasha. Kagome and Shippou are both fine, and Kikyo will be too." Inuyasha looked at Naraku and stood up. He shouted, "Naraku! I challenge you to a fight! If I win, you set Kikyo free. If you win, you take my life." Naraku smiled and nodded. Sesshomaru looked at his brother and held out his hand. Inuyasha grabbed it. Then, a bright light blinded everyone. When the light faded, neither of the Youkai was there. Instead, there was one, strong Youkai. He was about Inuyasha's height, had long silver hair, was wearing a black robe lined with red, had a tail like Sesshomaru, and had slick, glossy red eyes. Both Sango and Kagome looked at him with love-struck eyes. Miroku looked at him jealously, and Naraku glared at him. Then the evil master shouted, "What trickery is this?! How can it be that the two of you have learned the art of fusion?" Kagome thought, 'You mean that he is both Inuyasha and Sesshomaru?' The fusion nodded and held out his hand. Then, e moved it upwards. Tetsusaiga was lifted from the ground and placed in his hand. All the jewel shards started glowing as Naraku leapt to the attack. The fusion dodged his attack. Naraku smiled and snapped his fingers. Behind him, Kikyo's jail shattered. Her body fell into Naraku's arms. He took Kikyo's hand. A bright light started glowing. When that light faded, a new enemy was standing there. He had long, black hair. He was wearing loose black pants and a white, flowing long-sleeved shirt. He had blue eyes, and a smile that put chills on any opponent's back. Kagome stared at the two fusions. The fusion of Inuyasha and Sesshomaru said, "Well now. This makes things a bit more complicating. I am Inmaru. And you are?" The evil fusion smiled and said, "I am Narakio. Although Kikyo was weak, she was strong even right before death. There is no way you can defeat me." Inmaru thought, 'All I have to do is find your weakness and you're finished!' Narakio said, "I have no weakness. Oh yes, I forgot to tell you. I can read minds." Inmaru stepped back. Then, they both leapt to attack each other. The battle lasted for seven hours. Then, Inmaru fell to the ground. He slowly got back to his feet. He leapt at Narakio with Tetsusaiga. Narakio then fell down. Inmaru held Tetsusaiga above his head ready to attack. But then, the jewel shards started to glow. They put all of their power inside Tetsusaiga, and then shattered. Inmaru stabbed Tetsusaiga into Narakio. His head fell to the ground. Narakio was dead. The two bodies unfused and Naraku and Kikyo both were lying on the ground. Then, Inmaru unfused. Inuyasha ran over and kneeled beside Kikyo. Sesshomaru said, "I'm sorry. With the jewel shards shattered, you can't turn full Youkai." Inuyasha replied, "I wouldn't use the jewel for that. I would use it to restore Kikyo." Sesshomaru gazed at his brother shocked. Inuyasha got up and grabbed the life restoring crystal out of Sesshomaru's robe. Sesshomaru shouted, "No brother! You are too weak! You will die!" Inuyasha looked back and nodded. Then he put the crystal on Kikyo's head. A light shone, and Inuyasha was on the ground dead. Then, Kikyo opened her eyes and sat up. She looked over at Inuyasha's bloody, dead body.
