It all began on a peaceful eve. Miroku, Sango, Inu Yasha, and Kagome, treaded through thick woods.

"I sense anger, fury, disgust, prowling in these woods," Miroku said wisely.

"I can smell blood, fresh blood," Inu Yasha turned to the group, "Maybe we should go back to the village, we can take a detour through the Hanamiji Mountains, they're pretty peaceful this time of year!"

The group nodded, but as they turned around they found that they were in a desert. They looked around fearfully.

"What's this?" Sango raised her brow. She clutched onto her grand boomerang and watched the horizon.

Black dots polluted the sky, and finally, the sky was dark and grim.

"Shit!" Inu Yasha yelped, "Run!". The others ran towards a green speck on the horizon, as Inu Yasha slashed at demons. The instantly dispersed.

"Inu Yasha!" Inu Yasha heard fear in Kagome's voice. Quickly he turned around to see that they were surrounded by these disgusting demons.

As the group huddled together, the cloud dispersed in front of Sango. One of Naraku's allies walked into the small amount of space the group had in, the demon dome. They all stared, at the fiend. Sango could barely make out his face, since the demons only allowed few speckles of light to pass through them.

"Naraku is angered by you girl," the broad demon pointed at Sango, "He said your insolence is deceiving, and you must die for not fulfilling his request. He also told me to kill all of your friends."

The demon was at least 15 feet tall. He was slightly large in the middle, with a pig face. he wore a thick leather patch over his eye, and carried a blade over 10 times the size of the Tetusaiga. With any sudden movement, they would die.

"Off with you," the monster shooed away the birds. The group appeared back in the forest, a dirt clearing bore under them. They were surrounded by wooded area, two paths leading out. The clearing was rather large, they had passed it a couple hours ago. The monster grinned pleasurably, he knew he would win, and have dinner.

"If you are able to defeat me, I will free you, but under those highly unlikely standards," he began, "I won't give you any remorse!". He swung the sword, and hit Miroku out of the way. Luckily, it was a minor scratch. Miroku soared head first into a tree and fell unconscious.

"Damn Monk," Inu Yasha muttered. Kagome pointed her bow at the demon who in turn dodged the arrow, he was too fast and too powerful.

"You don't need to fight them, only me Shinango!" Sango growled at the demon.

"Orders are orders Lady Sango," he pointed the blade at her. He charged at her, the blade over his head. She threw boomerang and hit him in the eye.

"Why you little," he began. He ran back at her and finally he pulled the blade down and stabbed Sango in the shoulder.

"I-" Sango was shocked as blood dripped down her black uniform. The dense creature assumed she died as she fell unconscious.

Kagome realized it was the end, and she turned to Inu Yasha. Tears flooded her eyes. The two were backed up against a tree. Inu Yasha unsheathed the Tetusaiga and he readied for action.

"It's useless Inu Yasha, he's Naraku's ally, we'll die here," she whispered into his cotton ears.

"Don't think like that Kagome," Inu Yasha growled back.

"If I die, I wanted to tell you I love you Inu Yasha, with all my heart and soul," she cooed into his ear.

The monster saw Inu Yasha, and decided not to waste his time with the ebony haired girl. He took his giant paw and knocked Kagome out of the way. She landed next to Miroku, after flying across the clearing. She fell into a deep and painful slumber.

"KAGOME!" he shrieked, "This is enough!". The two ran at each other, Inu Yasha flew into the air and hit the demons weapon out of his hand. But in return the demon sliced Inu Yasha over and over across the chest with his claws. Inu Yasha fell to the ground, panting painfully. The monster watched as Inu Yasha felt woozy from the lack of blood and fell to his knees.

"Game Over," the demon whacked the Tetusaiga from Inu Yasha's hands and smacked him around the face. Inu Yasha fell into the peril of darkness.

Kagome woke up, night had fallen onto the forest, the moon lit the soil dimly. She saw that the monster hadn't eaten any of them, he just was putting fear into them.

"Fear weakens our minds," she remembered. She saw Miroku who had in his sleep rolled into her lap.

"Jesus Miroku, get off of me!" she pushed him off, but he still slept. She stood up and heard him thud back onto the ground.

"Sango?" she looked for her friend and found her by a tree, asleep. She was obviously not too badly wounded since she seemed to be sleeping easily. But then, fear swarmed through her veins. In the center of the clearing, she saw a smaller dark figure, by a large dark figure. 'Inu Yasha!' she screamed inside. An adrenaline rush swept through her and she ran to the small figure. She kneeled down by Inu Yasha and pulled him into her lap. She heard his faint, wheezes and knew he was still alive, but barely.

"Inu Yasha?" she whispered softly down to him. She felt him shiver.

"Kagome?" he looked up to her, one of his eyes still closed.

"Oh my god!" she pulled him tight in her arms, "Inu Yasha, you can't die!"

"Kagome," he could barely talk, his voice raspy, and dry, "I never meant...to call you names."

"I know Inu Yasha," she smiled as she hugged him. Tears welled up in her eyes.

"I really did like you too," he said, but it was painful as he talked.

"Did? Inu Yasha don't talk like that, you sound crazy," tears trickled down Kagome's face, "You're going to live Inu Yasha". She choked on some of the salty drops and she sobbed.

"Don't cry Kagome," he said slowly, "If I die, you won't be missing out on anything."

"Don't say that Inu Yasha, don't say that."
