Sorry people, but you won't learn anything new about the new puppy in this chap. I'm saving everything for the final chapter, which happens to be the next!

DON'T KILL ME: This chapter turned out to be much shorter than recent ones.

Demon Zoo

By Fantasy Cat

Disc: Out of stuff to say. No ownership of Inuyasha and all that smack!

Chapter Nineteen

____________________

The hanyou was quickly wrapped in a towel by Kagome. Sesshomaru looked down at Rin not knowing how to feel, except he felt some sort of pain. So he scooped Rin into his demon arms. "Kaede," said Kagome holding the newborn puppy. "We have to get Rin to the zoo vet, Kaede. She'll know what to do."

Sesshomaru looked to Kagome with an understanding nod and immediately sped off holding onto Rin.

"Hey, wait a minute! You don't even know where she is!" Kagome called out. Then she looked at the bundle in her arms.

"AND YOU FORGOT YOUR BABY!"

Clink.

Kagome turned around and saw Kikyo with a gun pointing at her.

"Give me the hanyou."

Kagome couldn't feel her legs wobbling. She began to trip and at that moment Kikyo decided to pull the trigger. The gun had flown out of Kikyo's hand and hit the wall before dropping to the ground. Kikyo found herself hitting against a cabinet and falling to the ground. The cabinet began to wobble and tip towards Kikyo. Its doors opened to reveal the sharp medical tools before crushing Kikyo.

The puppy began to whine from all of the disturbance. Kagome pushed herself up being careful with the puppy. She stepped back looking at the bloody corpse of Kikyo bleeding underneath the fallen cabinet. "Hey, I didn't get shot," Kagome said looking at herself. "But who…"

Kagome looked up and saw a familiar looking youkai sitting on the counter. "Kouga?! You saved me?"

The wolf demon smiled. "Kagome!" Inuyasha finally rushed into the room. First he saw the dead Kikyo then he saw Kouga on his opposite. "Kouga, what in the world are you doing here?"

"My favorite human was in trouble, so I came to help her," said Kouga. His nose caught something in the air and it pointed towards the puppy in Kagome's arms. Kouga suddenly grabbed Inuyasha by the neck.

"INUYASHA! You got Kagome with a kid?! Do you have no shame?!"

"That ain't my kid! It's my brother's!"

"YOUR BROTHER HAD A CHILD WITH KAGOME?!"
"IT'S NOT KAGOME'S KID!!!!" Inuyasha was struggling to breathe. Then Kouga loosened his grip and Inuyasha fell to the ground.

"Thanks for your help," Kagome said to Kouga. Kouga turned to Inuyasha. "Well, I would like to stay but I gotta help my friends get outta here before animal control gets here. Later, dog boy!" Kouga sped out of the room.

"Animal control is coming?!" asked Kagome. Inuyasha grabbed one of Kagome's arms. "We gotta get out of here too."

They ran down the halls trying to find a way out. But all they could see was darkness and damage on the walls. Inuyasha could smell some blood. "I think the demons wee going crazy breaking out of this place." It was unknown to them whether it was day or night outside. Then they saw an exit sign lit not to far away.

"Here we go," said Inuyasha. The two began to speed up towards the exit.

A lone bang echoed throughout the building and Kagome and Inuyasha were stopped dead in their tracks. Inuyasha whirled around and saw Naraku. His head was bleeding from one side, his clothes slightly torn, he pointed a gun at the two. Inuyasha eyes looked back towards the exit.

"You can make it, Kagome. Go!" Kagome began rushing towards the door holding the puppy even tighter but then Naraku fired his gun. The bullet flew past Kagome but it scraped her leg and Kagome was brought down by the pain onto the floor.

"Kagome!" Inuyasha cried. The puppy in Kagome's arm let out a deafening puppy whine. Kagome was cringing in pain and Inuyasha and Naraku were covering their ears.

Naraku went past Inuyasha weakened by the loud cries and brought his gun down to where Kagome and the hanyou lied on the ground. "I'll get that bastard to shut up."

The hallway became blinded in light and a very powerful breeze swept through. When the light past Inuyasha was on the floor with Kagome and the hanyou. They looked over and saw Sesshomaru, hunching over Naraku. One of Sesshomaru's claws were buried deep into his arm.

"Naraku, I have come to finish the job. You hurt my mate and now you attempted to hurt my first-born. This will not stand." The weight of his claw on Naraku began to increase. Soon looking down on Naraku was the creepy giant dog who opened his jaws. The poison saliva began to drool.

"Die!"

Inuyasha brought his arm up to cover Kagome eyes. By the end there would be nothing left of Naraku but the blood and guts that covered the entire hall.

Finally they stepped outside of the building and some of the demons were running around not knowing what to do including Shippo and Kirara. "Don't just stand there you morons! Animal control is coming! Head for the forests! Don't come near the city again!"

The remaining demons began to run and fly westward where Inuyasha told them to go. Shippo rode on Kirara heading towards the sunset.

==+==

On a campus not too far away, Sango and Miroku watched some of the demons flying in the sky. "They escaped?" asked Miroku.

"No," said Sango. "They're free."

Miroku chuckled. "Well, demons are fascinating and beautiful creatures. And such beings can't be put into a cage."

==+==

Sesshomaru came behind Inuyasha and Kagome. "Here," said Kagome. She gave the puppy to Sesshomaru. He took one glimpse at it then quickly flew away. "Come on," said Inuyasha. Kagome got on Inuyasha's back and they sped after Sesshomaru.

IT'S ALMOST OVER!!!

Late welcomes to Tejas and Shampoo Sakai. I cant believe how many reviewers hurt themselves after reading my last chapter, oh well. Surprisingly short chapter, yes. But the final chapter may hopefully be longer. I know me so sad that it's over too, sniff sniff!
