Chapter 5- Naraku and Kikyo

"Well,I see you have fallen right into my trap." , Naraku chuckled.

Inuyasha spun around and yelled, "Come out you coward." Naraku appeared in his baboon alias. Inuyasha saw a figure in the shadows next to him. " What do ya mean I fell into your trap?" , Inuyasha asked.

" You are such a fool,Inuyasha." , Naraku said.

Kagome started feeling faint, like she had been poisoned. She fell on one knee gasping for breath. " Inuyasha....." ,she gasped.

"Kagome. " , Inuyasha yelled. " NARAKU,WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?" ,he yelled.

"Why don't you ask Kikyo?" ,he replied.

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN?" ,Inuyasha gasped as he saw the figure emerge from the shadows. " Kikyo,how?"

You think I would give up that easily to a half dog demon?How could you think I ever loved you?I love Naraku.That girl will now die." ,Kikyo said with a chuckle as she wrapped an arm around Naraku.

" How could you Kikyo?Your body it was nothing but dust,and your soul it went back into Kagome." ,Inuyasha asked.His eyes widened as he realized he didn't feel any pain when he saw Kikyo wrap her arm around Naraku,or said she loved him.He only felt disgust. " I was never in love with you." , he said more to himself.

Kikyo's eyes narrowed as she heard this. " That was just a trick.Naraku knows how to make bodies from the earth,using a small amount of my essence.That was not my soul,but poison that will slowly kill the girl for all the trouble she has caused me.Think of it as a parting gift from me." , Kikyo hissed. "I think it is time for me to say goodbye to you."

Inuyasha just stared at them.He looked at Kagome she was starting to get up.All eyes turned towards her.

"HOW....." ,Kikyo gasped.

"Inuyasha you can't kill Naraku. Somehow with that poison he has connected with the jewel.So if you destroy him,the jewel will become tainted with his evil and everyone will be doomed." ,Kagome said sitting up and crossing her legs.

"Well the girl's not as stupid and worthless as I thought she was. ", Naraku said. " Kikyo why don't you finish her off?" , Naraku asked.

"NO......Kikyo,I don't want to hurt you." ,Inuyasha yelled.

Kikyo walked up to him and placed her hand on the side of his face. " Inuyasha,you won't hurt me.You love me too much." ,she said stroking his face.

Inuyasha was being put under some spell.Images of Kagome flashed through his mind.Her laughing,telling him to sit,crying,them together in battle,and the pain he felt at his dream of her leaving him.His eyes become clear once again."NO." , he yelled.He shoved Kikyo onto the ground,as he unsheathed Tessiga. 'Kagome said I couldn't kill Naraku,she didn't say anything about this imposter. " You are not Kikyo.I will put your soul to rest once and for all.He swung Tessiga and sliced right through her heart.

Kikyo was shocked.She thought she had him trapped.How had he escaped?He truly loved that girl." Inuyasha." , she whispered falling onto her knees.Her body started to whither,and where her body had been there was nothing but clay.What had once been part of her soul was nothing more than an ominous black cloud hovering in the air.It went back into Naraku.

Naraku screamed, 'You'll pay for that,Inuyasha."

Inuyasha sheathed Tessiga.He walked over to Kagome and lifted her into his arms." Kagome,I need your help." he whispered. She opened her eyes."Inuyasha."

Naraku threw his baboon cloak off."Inuyasha." ,he hissed.

Inuyasha put Kagome down and faced Naraku.He was still in that prince's body.His long,black hair was blown into his face by the wind.

Kagome knew Inuyasha was in danger.'He killed Kikyo.He really loves me.' She felt a force go through her. She got up and called the Shikon Jewel Naraku had,to her.They forged together and the jewel was whole again.She knew her fate would be death in doing this,but she had to save Inuyasha and the rest of the world from Naraku's evil power.She held the jewel in her hands and summoned it's power. "Naraku." ,she yelled.
