Disclaimer: Don't own Inuyasha...though I very much would like to be Rumiko Takahasi, because she does. However, please don't steal my storyline, or origional characters. becasue I came up w/ them on my own...and I'm kinda proud of that. lol.

"But why would he send him without any demons? He doesn't even have his weapon with him." Kagome pointed out. Kohaku then turned and ran.

"Kohaku!" Sango shouted. She quickly grabbed her weapon and ran after him.

"Wait Sango! It's a trap!" Maya shouted causing the taji to stop.

"I know, but even if it is, Kohaku is my brother. And besides, he might lead us to Naraku." Sango argued.

"She's right." Kagome said picking up her bow and her quiver filled with arrows. "We have to go after Naraku, even if it is a trap. If we don't he'll come here. If Kohaku is still under his control then he knows where we are."

"Right." Inuyasha agreed as he bent down so Kagome could climb on his back. The others climbed on to Kirara. "Let's go. We don't want to lose him."

Still Dreaming
By Endless Moonlight

"So...they're coming." Naraku said handing Kanna's mirror back to her. "That's good. Kagura, did you and Kohaku take care of those wolves?"

"They really weren't much of fight." She said tossing two shards to the ground. "Those were all he had."

"Good..." Naraku said with an evil laugh.

"Can you see him?" Kagome said trying to get a better view over Inuyasha's shoulder.

"Yeah..." He said attempting readjust Kagome on his back as he ran. "Will ya quit moving already!? Or would you rather attempt to keep up on your own?"

"Sorry..."

The group continued to run on until they reached the end of the forest. There wasn't much there. There was a cliff to one side, and the forest on the other, but the rest seemed to be just open space.

It was there that Kohaku suddenly stopped. The group then did the same. Kagome climbed off Inuyasha, and the others off of Kirara.

"Why did he stop?" Shippo said looking around. "I don't see anything here."

Inuyasha sniffed the air and his face turned grim. Kagome turned to him with a worried expression.

"What is it?"

"Stay here." He said before starting to climb the cliff. When he reached the top he covered his nose. The air was thick with blood, and the field before him made it clear why.

"Something is wrong here..." Maya thought allowed.

Kagome turned to Sango who was now trying to get through to Kohaku, but he just stood there and stared at her with the same blank expression on his face. "Sango...can I use Kirara?" Sango simply nodded.

"You going after Inuyasha?" Shippo asked. Kagome nodded.

"What if Naraku is up there?" Kagome said worriedly.

"I'm going to." Shippo said jumping on Kagome's shoulder.

"Me too." Maya said climbing on Kirara next to Kagome.

"Come back and get us if anything is wrong." Miroku said as Kirara took off.

"We will!" Kagome called back. Kirara quickly flew to the top of the cliff. Once they were at the top Kagome gasped, and Maya quickly covered Shippo's eyes. The group before them was covered in wolf corpses.

Inuyasha turned around to look at Kagome who was now very close to tears. "I told you to stay there!" He yelled.

Kagome slowly climbed off Kirara and walked over to the hanyou. "Is Koga here? This is his pack...isn't it?" Inuyasha nodded.

"You know these wolves?" Maya said climbing off Kirara. Kagome silently nodded. Shippo managed to free himself from Maya's grasp. His eyes widened.

"Where's Koga? Is he alive?" Shippo asked. Sure none of them were ever that close with the wolf, but none of them, though Inuyasha would probably never admit it, would have wished his death.

"It looks like someone is moving over there." Maya said pointing in the direction she saw the movement. They all quickly ran over there.

"Koga!" Kagome gasped. "Help me get him onto Kirara." Inuyasha nodded and helped her. Maya and Shippo then climbed back on Kirara with Koga, and Kagome got on Inuyasha.

"What happened?" Miroku asked once they reached the bottom. "Is that Koga?" Shippo jumped to Miroku's shoulder.

"There's a lot of bodies up there. They're all from his pack." Shippo explained. Inuyasha and Miroku then lifted him off of Kirara and laid him on the ground.

"He'll live...It doesn't look like he's hurt too badly..." Maya observed. "But...All the others are dead. He's the only one who survived."

"Naraku..." Koga said weakly. "He said something about the jewel...that's why he let me live..."

"He must have tried to make Koga's shards tainted with evil. They're not there anymore." Kagome pointed out.

"Is he still nearby?" Sango asked joining the others.

"Of course he is." A voice said from behind them. They all quickly turned around.

"Kagura." Inuyasha growled.

"You think he would lead you here and just not show up? That would be very disappointing. He even asked me to bring this friend of yours Maya." She said taking a step to the side revealing the boy from before.

"Sato..." She gasped. "What did you do to him!?"

"What makes you think we did anything to him?" She said laughing. "We simply reasoned with him."

"You're lying!" She yelled back.

"Don't listen to her Maya, he has a jewel shard inside of him." Kagome said.

"Very observant Kagome." A cold voice said as Naraku revealed himself. "I see you manage to find those annoying wolves easy enough."

"Naraku..." Koga growled out as he attempted to get up. Kagome turned around and stopped him.

"You can't Koga. Your not strong enough to fight." She said convincingly enough.

"She's right." Naraku said tauntingly. "You and your pack never stood a chance."

"Ya know," Inuyasha said taking out the tetsuisaga. "I'm getting really sick of hearing you talk." Then he took the sword and swung it in Naraku's direction.

"Lookout!" Kagome yelled as Sato ran directly into the path of the tetsuisaga causing Inuyasha to stop midswing. Inuyasha roughly pushed him back towards the others.

"Take care a him will ya?!" He called back.

"Got it." Kagome replied as Sango and Miroku held him down so she could purify the shard inside of him. He blinked a few times as his eyes returned to normal.

"What am I...Maya?" He asked. "What's going on?"

"How pathetic..." Inuyasha remarked as the others quickly took care of Sato. "Using a mortal as your shield." Inuyasha then swung his tetsuisaga once more. Naraku quickly dodged the attack.

"Going after him already Inuyasha?" Kagura said tauntingly. "You haven't forgotten about me have you?" She then waved he fan and sent an attack straight at the others who were behind him. Luckily they all managed to get out of the way in time. Except for Koga who Inuyasha quickly picked up and moved.

"Some help would be nice." Inuyasha remarked as he set the injured wolf down. The others nodded and joined in the fight. Sato and Shippo stayed near Koga and bandaged him up as best they could.

Inuyasha once again swung tetsiusaga, and Naraku once again dodged, only this time hundreds of tentacles appeared from under his baboon disguise. The group all battled the tentacles as Kagura stood watching, Kohaku by her side.

Miroku didn't even dare open his kazzana because he knew the poisonous insects were somewhere nearby. Kagome shot several arrows, but those that did hit, only hit tentacles which quickly regrew. Inuyasha hacked threw them with is sword, and Maya was casting several spells, but none seemed to be doing much good. Sango rode up into the air on Kirara and threw her boomerang down, barely missing Naraku's actual body. He just shook with an evil sort of laughter.

"Have you forgotten already Sango? I still have control over your brother." He said distracting Sango who quickly began to look around for Kohaku. Taking this to his advantage he sent a tentacle flying towards her, causing her to be thrown to the ground.

Sango landed hard on her arm and screamed in pain as the sickening snap of bone was heard. This wasn't enough to stop her though. She slowly picked her self up with her good arm and looked around. It wasn't long before she spotted Kohaku. She screamed his name helplessly as she watched the jewel shard torn from his body. She tried to run to him, but another tentacle quickly hit her and she fell unconscious.

"Sango!" Miroku yelled as he ran to her side. He knelt down and looked at her. She was still alive. He then attempted to block the tentacles coming towards them.

Kagome aimed carefully as she shot the last arrow in her quiver. It missed by a long shot due to the distraction of Miroku yelling Sango's name. Kagome had glanced over at the two at the last second.

"Watch it!!" Inuyasha yelled looking back at the girl whose arrow had almost hit him.

"Sorry!" She called back, completely oblivious to the tentacle shooting towards her. Inuyasha saw it though. He quickly jumped down from his place up on the mountain of tentacles. He grabbed her and was about to jump out of the way when he felt something shoot though his back, the force of it sending them flying into the air..

"Inuyasha!" Kagome screamed as she watched the tentacle that was heading towards her go through him. While they were still in the air another one whipped towards them sending them flying towards the cliff where Koga's deceased pack lay at the top. Inuyasha quickly managed to flip himself around so he hit the cliff instead of Kagome. The two then fell roughly to the ground.

Naraku once again laughed at the sight before him. Then he sent another tentacle towards Kagome's bag and grabbed the jewel shards from it. He then placed it with the other shards and in a small flash of light the jewel was whole once more. He laughed murderously as he quickly swallowed the jewel and began to transform.

Kagome shakily picked herself up off the hanyou. "Inuyasha!" She yelled shaking the now unconscious Inuyasha. He was covered in blood and tears filled her eyes when he didn't show any signs of moving. Kagome quickly blinked them away and looked at the transforming Naraku. A chill ran down her spine from the evil he was radiating.

Kagome then stood up on wobbly legs and picked up her bow. She looked around for arrow. She soon spotted one in one of his chopped off tentacles, pulled it out, and notched it in her bow.

"I'm sick of you..." She said weakly. A soft pinkish purple appeared at the tip of her arrow and began to spread through out her body. "You cursed Miroku...You killed Sango's entire village...You kill most of Koga's pack..." Kagome's voice was slowly becoming louder as the light around her grew. She could feel it flowing through her. "You killed Kikyo, and played with Kikyo and Inuyasha's hearts...you've tried to trick me and my friends..."

Shippo who had been hiding behind Sato while Naraku transformed, and for good reason too, peaked his head out and looked at Kagome. He then looked at the now fully transformed Naraku. He was indescribable. He looked like thousands of demons had all been thrown together into on giant being. He seemed so large he was blocking out the now rising sun. The only light that could be seen was coming from Kagome, and it was getting brighter.

"Kagome!" Shippo shouted in vein as Naraku went after her. Kagome stood unmoving though.

"AND I'M NOT GOING TO TAKE IT ANYMORE!!!" She shouted as loud as she possibly could. The pinkish purple light that had been surrounding her suddenly flared into an amazing white. Naraku was seconds away from killing her when she released the arrow directly at the now youkai.

Kagome felt as if all her energy was being pulled from her as she released the arrow. Kagome and the others shielded their eyes as the light grew when it hit Naraku.

When the light faded there was nothing left of Naraku or Kagura. Kagome looked around to see everyone's shocked faces. How she managed to do that wasn't important now though. She slowly walked to the center of the battle field and picked up the jewel. It was instantly purified by her touch.

Miroku walked out to where Kagome was. "Is it...is it really over?" He asked unsure. Kagome nodded as she dumbly stared at the jewel. She held it out for him to see and he nodded as well.

"You should tend to Sango." She said weakly as she turned around and headed back to where Inuyasha was. Miroku nodded, though she didn't see him, and went back to Sango, who now had Kirara by her side.

Kagome fell to her knees once she reached Inuyasha. She felt so weak. Had the arrow really drained that much out of her? Kagome slowly ran her hand across Inuyasha's cheek. She felt tears coming to her eyes. He was hardly even breathing. What if he didn't...Kagome shook her head. That wouldn't happen.

"Please Inuyasha..." She whispered laying her head on his chest. "You can't die...not now..."

Kagome slowly closed her eyes and felt her hand grow warm. What was it she was holding again? She couldn't remember...She just felt so tired... A single tear rolled down her cheek as she let the darkness overcome her.

wow! that was a super long chapter! like twice as long as normal. Well, I hope you liked it. I've had that idea about Kagome killing Naraku in my head for a while now. I'm leaving for a week tomorrow so u'll have to wait 4 the ending. there's only one chappie left though!

ohh yeah, and I would like to say that I came up with the idea for this chapter before I saw the 3rd episode of Inuyasha with the dark preistess. I saw it last Saturday and i was like noooooo! because at first it was a lot like the first chapter of this fic.
