Note: Hey all. This is really going. I'm working on chapter 14 as I'm
typing this. I think that the story is almost done. Disclaimer: As always I
do not own the Inu Yasha characters (No matter how much I want to). They
belong to Rumiko Takahashi. ^_^ Please R&R!
Ziro was advancing. His hand outstretched for the Shikon no Tama.
"Advance no further" Miroku said firmly. Ziro's eyes were widening with anger.
"I will get that jewel." He raised his hand, palm facing out. Energy burst out of his hand and Miroku flew backward. Kagome gasped.
"Miroku!!" she cried. She looked over at Ziro. She held Souta closer and tighter.
"Give me the jewel." Ziro said, his voice getting deeper and raspier.
'He's going to become full demon..' Kagome thought. She kept her eyes on him. He prepared to attack. Kagome lowered her head, closed her eyes and prepared herself for the blast. But it never came. She looked up. Ziro was on the floor with a giant cat with 2 tail on top of him. The cat had two passengers. It was Kirara, Sango, and Shippo. Kirara was growling and snarling at Ziro. Sango and Shippo jumped off her and ran to Kagome and Souta. Kagome shook her brother.
"Souta. Souta, can you stand?" Souta looked up at her and nodded. They stood up.
"KAGOME!!" said Shippo as he leapt into her arms.
"Kagome. Are you okay?" Sango asked. Kagome nodded.
"Yes. It's good to see you again." she answered. "Oh! This is my brother Souta. Souta, this is Shippo and Sango. Kagome introduced them.
"Now. What's going on?" Sango asked.
"Too much to explain right now. But he is another of Naraku's incarnations." Kagome said, pointing at Ziro, who was still under Kirara.
"We brought you your bow and arrows, Kagome." Shippo stated.
"Oh. Thank you." Kagome exclaimed. She took them and put and arrow in place, aiming at Ziro.
"Kirara." She called out Kirara turned her head and saw Kagome with her arrow ready. She stepped down off Ziro. Before Ziro could get up, Kagome let her arrow go. It pierced his left shoulder. Ziro sat up. He tried to pull the arrow out but since it was a holy arrow and only Kagome could pull it out, he failed. Sango looked at Kagome.
"Where's Miroku?" she asked.
"Oh! I almost forgot about him!" Kagome answered as she turned and ran to Miroku, who was just coming to.
"Miroku!" Kagome, Sango, and Shippo called out.
"Are you okay?" Shippo asked. Miroku just groaned. He opened his eyes and looked at them. His eyes widened in surprise.
"Sango! Shippo! What are you doing here?" They just smiled.
"Give me the Shikon no Tama." came Ziro's voice. They all looked at him. Kirara growled. Miroku got up. Souta hid behind Kagome.
"Give me the Shikon no Tama." Ziro repeated. He was walking towards them, his hand outstretched. Miroku made a small motion for the rest to get behind him. They did so. Sango held Kirara as Shippo sat on her shoulder. Souta continued to hide behind Kagome. Miroku pulled off the prayer beads and released his Kazaana. Ziro grabbed a pillar with his right arm. He pulled himself behind it. Kagome saw his hand holding onto the pillar. She grabbed her bow and an arrow. She stood up. Souta looked at her. He saw determination in her eyes as she took aim. Sango and Shippo noticed the same determination. Kagome released her arrow. She urged it on, against Miroku's Kazaana. The arrow flew true to Kagome's will. It zoomed right into Ziro's hand. He could no longer hand onto the pillar. He slid out from behind it. As he was flying towards them, he was pulling someone with him. Both Kagome and Souta recognized that person.
"MAMA!!" they cried out at once. Miroku went to put the prayer beads back on but it was too late. Both Ziro and Kagome's mother were gone. Kagome let out a long breath. She refused to cry. Miroku turned to face her.
"I'm sorry Kagome." he said, with concern in his eyes.
"It's okay, Miroku," she responded. "At lease we got rid of Ziro. Now we can go back and find Inu Yasha."
"Oh. Kagome? About Inu Yasha. When we came here, he was fighting with Naraku." Sango stated.
"Then we'd better hurry." Kagome said calmly. She didn't seem to be herself. Tears were welling in her eyes. Souta was hugging her arm. He was crying. Sango handed Kagome the shards of the Shikon no Tama that she, Shippo and Kirara used to get there. Kagome gave one to Sango and one to Miroku. Then she pulled out the one she had.
"Just in case we get separated. Let's go. C'mon Souta." Kagome said. They all got on Kirara and left the Tokyo Tower. They got back to Kagome's house within minutes. Kagome turned to Souta.
"Only grab what you'll need. A few day's worth of clothes will do. I've got all the antibiotics and antidotes we'll need for a while." she said. Souta nodded and headed to his room. Kagome turned to the others.
"I'll be right back." she said. She hopped off Kirara and jogged into her house. Kagome grabbed the last of the antibiotics and antidotes and some tissues. As she went for the door, something rubbed against her leg. Kagome jumped.
"Oh Buyo. I almost forgot about you." She picked up the cat and he purred. She walked outside just as Souta was getting on Kirara. She handed him the cat.
"Here Souta. Hang on to Buyo. Okay Kirara. Let's go." She said. Kirara bounded for the well. The next thing they knew they were all back in Feudal Japan. Everyone climbed off Kirara. She was so tired that she transformed back to being small and fell asleep at the bottom of the well.
"Souta, stay here with Buyo. I'll check and see if it's safe right now." Kagome said So she climbed out of the well. Miroku, Sango, and Shippo followed.
Naraku and Inu Yasha had been fighting since Sango and Shippo had left. Inu Yasha hadn't hit Naraku even once. Inu Yasha was severely wounded but he kept going. Naraku had used his power to take Tetsuaiga away and he stabbed Inu Yasha with it.
Now, even though he was bleeding, Inu Yasha kept trying to strike Naraku. Then something horrible happened just as Kagome got out of the well and looked up. Naraku used Tetsuaiga and stabbed Inu Yasha through the heart. Inu Yasha fell to the ground, bleeding intensely. Naraku started laughing. Kagome screamed.
"INU YASHA!!!" she cried. Sesshoumaru looked over. Kagome ran to where Inu Yasha had fallen. He barely opened his eyes.
"Ka. go. me. You're. alright. Thank. God." he said slowly.
"Inu Yasha," Kagome said. The tears she worked so hard to hold back were now flowing freely.
"Don't talk. Just conserve your strength and live." she said. Inu Yasha just smiled and closed his eye. Kagome breathed deeply. She got up and looked at Naraku. Fire burned in her eyes. She grabbed her bow and an arrow.
"NARAKU!! I'M GOING TO KILL YOU!!" she yelled at him. With her arrow adjusted, she took aim and shot it towards him. She hit his hand and Tetsuaiga fell to the ground. Then as if it were being summoned, Tetsuaiga flew to Kagome. She caught it. Then even more miraculous, it transformed. Kagome closed her eyes.
'Thank you. Inu Yasha.' she thought. She opened her eyes. Everyone was looking at her. They were all wondering the same thing.
'How is it, that Tetsuaiga transformed for her?' There it was. The Wind Scar that Inu Yasha had always used to defeat his enemies. This was the largest one since Naraku was such a powerful opponent. Kagome took the sword with both hands and swung it right at the Wind Scar. Naraku flew back. Deep slashes all over his body from that one attack. The Shikon no Tama flew up into the air. Everyone froze. Kagome ran forward and caught it. She didn't let go of Tetsuaiga. Miroku and Sango ran over to her while Sesshoumaru slowly walked. Miroku and Sango handed Kagome the shards they had. She put them and the one she had on the jewel and the shards connected instantly. She put the Shikon no Tama around her neck then faced Naraku. Miroku, Sango, and Sesshoumaru faced him as well. Miroku prepared to release his Kazaana. Sango was ready to throw her boomerang at a moments notice. And Sesshoumaru wielded Tokijin. Naraku released his poisonous insects. Miroku loosened his grip on the prayer beads. Sesshoumaru saw this and attacked the wasps. He killed them with both the Tokijin and his own poison. they were all gone within minutes. Sango threw her boomerang and it cut off Naraku's left arm and knocked him out. He fell face forward into the dirt, bleeding. Kagome nodded to signal Miroku to release his Kazaana. She didn't take her eyes off Naraku. Miroku stepped forward a bit and pulled off the prayer beads. Naraku was pulled off the ground and strait into Miroku's Kazaana. Then it disappeared. Miroku inspected his hand.
"I can't believe that it's finally gone." he said quietly. Sango leaned over and whispered to him.
"Now our little one won't have to worry about it." She said as she rubbed her slowly growing stomach, gently. Kagome went to the well.
"Souta! Its safe to come out now!" she called down int. She hopped in and grabbed her small bag of antibiotics and antidotes and put Buyo in it. She helped Souta onto one of the vines then grabbed Kirara. With Souta ahead of her, she climbed out for the well for the last time.
A/N: Wow. Talk about intense. I got kinda depressed while writing this. And I'm just not a depressed person. I don't smile for a little bit and everyone is around me asking what's wrong. heh. I hope I didn't make anyone else depressed. I apologize if I did. Please review. Chapter 14 is more cheerful. ^_^ So what did you think?
Kagome: *in shock* uh.. that's too depressing.
Hei: I know. I'm sorry. Other than that, what did you think.
Inu Yasha: Naraku's finally dead! Time to celebrate!
Hei: heh. That's a good idea Inu Yasha. Once your wounds heal. ^_^ Talk to you in the next chapter. Don't forget to review please.
