As Sango walked, in a fairly dark forest, she noticed every thing was shadowed although it was in the middle of the day. But she didn't care how creepy the scenery was, for she had a mission to save her brother, and kill Naraku.

While walking, a figure was visible, through the thick fog, that seemed to have come quite quickly. But as the figure drew nearer, the more Sango realized that the it was a women that approached. Of course despite the fact that the lady didn't resemble Naraku at all, Sango still prepared for the worst, until she noticed she recognized this lady.

She was surprised to find herself face to face with Kikyo, "Kikyo?" she whisered, "You need to be put to rest." At this comment, Kikyo smirked,

"I will do nothing of the sort, I merely will stay a wondering soul, until I kill Kagome, and am reassured that Inuyasha is in love with me!" slightly taken aback at the rude comment about killing her friend, she continued walking, trying to get passed Kikyo with out problems.

Of course not many have proven, this task very easy, after all she is a priestess, a dead priestess. (But still a priestess I might add, are you confused yet? Srry to interrupt, plz continue.. ^^) "Where do you expect your going?" Sango ignored her and proceeded, but after she thought she made it (she was after all a good ten feet away) an arrow pierced through her right arm.

"Fool!" Naraku's voice sounded as he shape shifted back to his dark figure, "So, you went searchong to kill me have you? And let me guess to save Kohaku as well?" Although the pain that ran through her arm was fierce, she gripped her boomerang and through it toward him. Her heart stopped when she saw him place a boy in front of him, it was Kohaku!!!

"NO!!!!" She caught her breath when she saw him block it with his weapon, after she was thankfully releifed, she turned her attention back to Naraku. Her own weapon wasn't that much farther from her, so she jumped forward once more gripping her giant boomerang. And went running at Naraku, praying that she would kill him once and for all, but as soon as she was about four feet from him pain numbed her shoulder.

"Kohaku?" She turned, and was shocked when she saw him with his weapon, the blade facing her, stained in blood that streamed from her shoulder. "It's me, Sango?" But he showed no sign of recognition, just stared blankly at her, as if he were empty. Sango just wanted to die, and longed for it, she no longer cared for her mission to kill Naraku.

"Kohaku," she whispered once more, "I love you dear brother." And not caring what his reaction would be, she approached him, knowing that some where in this hollow body her brothers heart beat, but where she wasn't certain.

"Kohaku! Kill her!" Naraku's voice sounded evilly, "slaughter her, then after you have bathed in her blood, long to wonder and kill more." He laughed coldly, "Yes, then the jewel will shower in darkness." Just as he was told Kohaku, stepped forward raising his blade, getting ready to strike.

"No Kohaku!! It's me your sister!!" But he didn't stop but continued raising it, as she bent her head down in defeat. When she lifted it again she saw a quick glimpse of him throwing it down a her unprotected head.

That was before an arrow hit it out of his hand, "Sango? Are you alright?" came Kagome's worried voice.

"I'm ... fine" she answered surprised, "Get out of here Naraku.. He'll kill you!"

"Isn't that sweet putting yourself in danger, just to save your friends." He looked at each of the rescuers before he laughed coldly once more, "But there is no escaping this time for any of you!"

"Come off it, Naraku!" Inuyasha yelled in his usual tone, "You know every time we run into your little traps we always manage to escape, let alone win the battle."

"Yes, I've noticed this pattern, so I have surrounded all of u with my poisin gas." Suddenly a circle of gas surrounded them,

"Bastard!" he yelled. Sango didn't move at all when the gas began to circle them, she was lost in the memory of her brother before he had died..... and it hurt to see him under the power of Naraku.

"No language is going to get u out of this one!" he said, Inuyasha suddenly noticed the circling poison was getting smaller and smaller as it cave in towards the center.

"Damn it! There's no way out!" he turned to Miroku, and back to Sango, then to Kagome, his heart skipped a beat the moment he realized Kagome was going to die along with the rest of them. He couldn't bare the fact that she would be dieing in the feudal era. After all this time his main mission with her was to protect her forever, if she was in danger.

He turned around to where she was supposed to be, he had told her he wanted her behind them so he could protect her. But she wasn't there, and when he finally he saw her, he couldn't believe what was going on. Kagome was only inches away from Naraku and had her bow pulled back to the limit.

"Kagome!!!!!" Inuyasha yelled, as he stood there motionless, because it was only he who saw flying daggers Naraku had thrown. The daggers slashed into her sides, and she fell back wards, and everyone watched as her arrow pierce his chest, and actually caused him to fall backwards.

Inuyasha was angery, and he grabbed his tessiaiga, and went charging towards him, "I don't care what happens to you as long as I protect my Kagome!!!" Inuyasha now stood directly over Naraku, his eyes glowing with hatred, that even naraku looked terrified. "I warned you, bastard, she doesn't diserve to die !!!!!" everyone watched in amazement as Inuyasha's sword glowed red as he swung it down directly into Naraku, and completely destroyed him.

"Feh, Good ridence," But it was only seconds before he once more found himself by Kagome's side, and wrapped her in his arms. "Are you alright?" she looked up at him, then down at her blood stained clothes.

"Inu..." she passed out as her voice traveled off, he just held her closely,

"Kagome you saved our lives," he whispered in her ear, hoping she'd move some what.

Inuyasha looked up to see where everyone else was, and he found them all hudeled around Sango who held her brother dearly. When he was about to call for help Kagome stirred, and opened her eyes, but when she saw Sango's figure holding her brother, she tried to get up.

"What're you doing?" he asked, holding her in his arms protectively,

"I have to see Sango." He slowly lifted her up and carried her over to the figure bent in sorrow, "Sango.. you're going to have to let him go, so we can distroy the jewel once and for all!"

"You mean take out this shard so he can become a beast!" she yelled, as tears rolled down her cheek.

"Sango, the jewel needs to be used so it will be gone forever!" she looked sown at her brother, who's eyes laid open, staring into space.

"Sango I love you, you'll always be my big sis," and he sat up and reached for the jewel shard in his back.

"No kohaku, leave it be," she said pulling his hand back,

"I have to, father had said that the jewel must be destroyed." Kohaku then as quickly as he could reached back and took it from it's place, as he fell motionless back in her arms.

A/n That was sad!!!! N e way I think next chapter will be my last! In the next chapter.. what will Inuyasha do with the jewel? Plz R&R
