Chapter 3: Over
The imposter lifted his claws up. Kagome held onto him tighter. He then shoved his fist into her back, her blood spattering everywhere. She arched back and gasped for air. He thrusted her onto the ground, and ripped across her body with his claws. He laughed evilly.
"Inuyasha...why?" Kagome sputtered out, barely able to breath.
"Foolish wench...you should have known never to fall in love with a demon, let alone a hanyou..." He grinned. Kagome then closed her eyes and lay there unconscious.
"KAGOME!" Inuyasha leaped through the air and stopped when he was in front of her motionless, scratched and brutally bruised body. "Damn you!" He pounded a fist into the imposter's stomach. The imposter flew in a circle and unveiled his real mask. "Naraku, you bastard!" He lunged forward again, only to miss his face by a mile.
"Kagome...I'm so sorry!" Inuyasha dipped his claws into the puddle of blood that formed around her back. "I'll be right back!" He ran towards Naraku. "Blades of Blood!" He screamed and his attack hit through Naraku's thigh, causing him to loose a leg.
"Inuyasha...just calm down. I know loosing your wench was hard for you, but you need to let this human mercy thing go." Naraku spat at Inuyasha.
"Shut the hell up!" He shouted. He lunged toward Naraku again, this time piercing through his stomach. Naraku moaned in pain and his blood sprinkled onto the both of them. "And this...hahaha...this...is for Kagome..." Inuyasha said, and with one more swipe of his claws, he killed Naraku. Naraku's body disintegrated into blood and floated up through the air.
The others watched in horror as the demon who had deceived them...the demon who had tortured them...the demon who never used his own hands to kill.... the demon who had caused so much unbearable pain among everyone, everywhere...was finally...at last...dead...gone forever.
"It's over..." Sango said, almost whispering. She looked over at Miroku who had suddenly kneeled to his knees, and started to sweat madly. "Miroku..." Sango slowly crept over to him
"No...Sango...keep your distance..." Miroku managed to sputter out. "My wind tunnel... it is... going away..." He held onto his right hand tightly with the left, sweat running down his forehead and arms. A strong gust of wind and a large aura of purple light sprawled out of his hand. "ARGH!!!!!" He screamed out in pain. Wind thrust out of his hand as the hole in his right hand began to seal away. With a large burst of wind and a flash of light, Miroku fell to the ground.
"Miroku!" Sango ran to him and fell beside him. She took his right hand in hers and examined it. "It's gone...Miroku...your wind tunnel...it has sealed up! You're free! Free from that curse!" Sango hugged him to her chest. She peered down at his face. "Miroku? Please say something...ANYTHING!" She cried. Her face went blank and then turned red with frustration when she felt an all too familiar hand rubbing up against her backside. "That hand of yours... when are you ever going to LEARN!" A loud slap was heard throughout the forest.
Miroku sat up grinning. He had a large, red handprint sprawled across his face. Sango crossed her arms and stood up. "Lecher..." She huffed, and trotted over to Inuyasha, who had gently picked up Kagome and carried her in his arms.
"We must go to Kaede's hut, and FAST!" With that, Inuyasha leaped through the air and headed toward the village.
"C'mon Miroku!" Sango grabbed a hold of his collar and took Shippou by the waist. She then hopped onto Kirara and they sped off, following Inuyasha.
"Is Kagome going to be alright?" Shippou asked, tears welding into his big, sad eyes. He peered up at Sango.
"I don't know Shippou...I just don't know..." Sango stared blankly into the sky, tears steaming down her cheeks.
