TO EVERYBODY: Look, I got this angry review saying that I had problems and that they wouldn't read 'The Switch' any more and it hurt. Because of that, I shall take a jump and go right to this next moment. I know that this seems really sad (the deaths) but I can tell you there is a very important reason for this, and I am not just being morbid or anything. You'll see in the next two chapters. BTW, there are only a few chapters left.

The Switch

Chapter Thirty-four: Information

It was devastating. This fight had cost many lives, leaving only three alive. The other three who were alive hadn't shown up yet, but Kagome hope they would get stuck somewhere...she didn't want them to see this.

She, Kikyou, and Yukina had taken the same battle stance they had in the last fight against Naraku. Yukina was sneaking up on Naraku from behind, waving her flail (I was corrected, it isn't a mace, but in fact, a flail) threateningly, though Naraku could neither see, nor sense her thanks to Kikyou and Kagome's shield.

Kagome had her bow ready, aimed at Naraku's heart, though like Yukina, he didn't notice her at all.

Kikyou stood there, on the other side, looking frustrated, and nervous. 'I really hope this works.'

"DIE!" Yukina struck Naraku several times, not caring that a tentacle was slowly finding it's way behind her, and that Naraku had a small smirk on his face. Even when the tentacle plunged through her, she still attacked, until her body grew limp as she slid off of the tentacle.

"Yukina..." Kagome and Kikyou murmured. 'She fought hard...she knew she had to.' Kikyou thought, silently mourning the death of her friend. Kagome took a deep breath and pulled back the arrow, preparing to loose it.

"KAGOME!" A voice shouted. Both Kikyou and Kagome looked at the figure and gasped. Yusuke had made it, and he had the worst timing...

Kagome fired the arrow, on accident. She had been so stunned, that it just flew from her hands, encompassed in a dark purple glow, and hit Naraku square on the shoulder. He started to laugh.

"Seems you are all trying the same tactic you used last time." Naraku smirked and sent miasma hurling towards the girl who shot him, in the red and white fighting clothes. The tie that had kept her hair back snapped as she fell, gasping for air.

"KAGOME!" Yusuke ran towards the fallen miko, and grabbed her shoulders, starting to shake her. "KAGOME! DAMN IT! WAKE UP!" Tears started to fall down his face. "Damn..." His shoulders shook. The head of the girl moved up, smiling somewhat.

"Baka...do I look like Kagome to you?" Yusuke took in a hissing breath. This...wasn't Kagome...it was...Kikyou, in Kagome's clothes. "Don't say anything...I just need you to do one thing..." Kikyou stopped for a second, taking a look behind Yusuke. "Don't move."

"Wha..." Yusuke felt something go straight through him, cutting off his words. 'Kagome...' Yusuke turned around as he fell, his vision blurring and becoming dark. 'What are planning?'

Kagome surveyed the damage. She had to bite her lip to stop the tears from flowing. She looked at the body of the nearest dead friend...or two. Kuwabara and Kurama, who had died just moments before Yusuke.

She bent down and grabbed Kurama's wrist. She surveyed the tear gem bracelet on his arm. It had grown to have crimson hue. 'So the rumors were true. At least...this part was.' Kagome thought bitterly. Naraku had turned to her, his crimson eyes showing his inner triumph.

"What will you do now, Kagome?" Naraku spoke. "Will you take revenge on me?" Kagome smirked back at Naraku.

"In a sense." Kagome stood up and spread her arms out. She didn't know how powerful her friends were until now...when she absorbed their aura's. Her hair grew to be the color of the whitest snow, and her eyes had no color. Her skin grew devoid of color. The only color on her was her clothes.

"You will pay."

End of Chappie
