Author Notes: Sorry I haven't updated. School has kept me busy plus I've been busy just with life itself.

Disclaimer: Been a long time since I wrote this crap; I don't own Inu- Yasha. ________________________________________________________________________

Inu-Yasha drew Tetsusaiga and held the blade firmly clasped between both his hands, the weight distributed evenly. He stood ready for the onslaught he knew was headed for him and his friends. Sango held hiraikotsu at the ready, fear gripping her stomach, would this be her last battle she thought. Miroku held his staff in battle stance vengeance was so close he could taste it. Kagome felt Naraku growing nearer and nearer. Everyone was lost in their own thoughts. Sango's were the most ominous. All she could think about was Miroku, what if he died, what if she died, she never told him how much she loved him, a small tear streamed down her face as Naraku set down and stood before his opposition.

"Ah so we had the same idea Inu-Yasha, to finish this now although you are foolish to come and face me for your death is now immanent. With your death shall be your friends, poor Sango who has never fully known love, Miroku cursed to die sooner or later, monk embrace your death and I shall make it quick."

Inu-Yasha's eyes went bright red the hatred for Naraku growing with every word he spoke. He stood directly in front of Naraku now. Fangs barred he spoke. "Naraku this is where your life ends, just like you ended Kikyo's fifty years ago, you ruined my life and the lives of so many others...YOU DIE NOW!" With all his speed and strength he swung Tetsusaiga straight at Narku's unprotected neck, but Naraku moved with great speed to the dismay of everyone as Inu-Yasha fell to the ground blood oozing from a slice across his chest from a katana by Naraku.

Kagome before anyone noticed notched an arrow and sent it flying towards Narku's back, Naraku turned grabbed it out of the arrow and snapped the mystical arrow like it was a twig. Miroku lunged towards the demon swinging his oak staff with great strength only to have a hard kick to legs send him tumbling to the ground at Naraku's feet.

"So you shall be the first to die eh monk." A giant grin crossing his face as he placed both hands around the leather grip of the katana thrusting it down towards Miroku. No fear was in his eyes or hate or compassion it seemed he accepted his fate as the blade came crashing down towards him he mouthed to Sango his undying love.

Out of nowhere like a streak of lightning Inu-Yasha grabbed Miroku from underneath the blade...unfortunately he was not fast enough the blade ran through Mirkou's shoulder shattering the bone from the force. Inu-Yasha took this chance to attack Naraku.

"Iron Reaver Soul Stealer" He screamed as he slashed into Naraku's stomach ripping all the flesh to pieces. His adversary staggered back as he clutched his stomach. To everyone's surprise the wound quickly healed and Naraku stood laughing at the futile attempt to kill him. Inu-Yasha thought quickly and tossed the now useless Miroku to Sango who was weeping madly out of fear hate and loss. She thought the blade had penetrated her only loves heart taking him from her forever. Before she realized that Inu-Yasha was trying to get her to get Miroku out of the battle and somewhere safe she went nuts and threw hiraikotsu, as she tossed it she charged Naraku slashing and lounging with her sword widely. With every swing of the blade she threw herself more off balance and grew more tired. Naraku grabbed her by the hair, "you are very pretty Sango for shame such a beautiful women must die...oh well." With that he brought his fist down on her head breaking her nose, he grabbed both her arms and snapped them at the elbows; with great force he threw her limp and unconscious body into a tree.

Kagome started to run to her friend only to find a small dagger buried into her side. Naraku tossed the blade hoping to strike her higher and end the useless mortals' life. Kagome stumbled as the blood trickled down her side soaking her uniform, the dark red consuming the white. Inu-Yasha ran to Kagome and caught her as she collapsed towards the ground. There was so much blood coming out of her, he didn't know what to do, panic filled the half demons heart. Kagomes breath was coming in shorter and shorter. As he looked into her eyes the seemed to go paler her skin a silky white. Tears were rolling down her face, was she going to die she thought. Inu-Yasha held her close just wanting to feel her warmth which was now gone.

"Kagome you can't leave me, not now not ever. I love you so much and I need you." His voice went soft and soothing, it was all he could do from keeping from falling apart right there.

"Inu-Yasha I love you to.....I...I'll be...fine...." With those last words she faded into unconsciousness, a sleep that she may never awake from.

Inu-Yasha took off his Fire Rat Robe and placed it gently beneath her head, he stood up Tetsusaiga buried slightly in the ground. His hair was blowing in the wind covering his now expressionless face. He turned slowly to Naraku and lifted Tetsusaiga and pointed the swords tip at him, his chest and hands were red from Kagomes' blood. He spoke very quietly to Naraku but in a voice that shook the other demons body. "You have injured my best friend, a great fighter then Kagome....I will not rest until I watch you take your last breath. My father gave me this great sword; I have his strength and mine. You fight alone but I fight with family and friends, I fight for them and you will PAY! Say your prayers!"

"Inu-Yasha please don't make me laugh, your strength can't even compare to mine, you are weak and a half breed, and you are nothing! HAHAHAHA, so arrogant and confident when you are dead I will slowly choke the life out of each and one of your pathetic friends!"

Inu-Yashas' eyes grew red and silted, his breath deeper and deeper the sun was setting behind him, it turned the sky to the colour of blood. He took one more look at Kagomes' limp unmoving blood covered body. His muscles all tensed in his jaw the hatred burning in his eyes.
