A/N: Hey look a chapter

Love is Never Easy: Chapter 14

Oh look! A song!...oh ya, and some REALLY weird stuff

Kagome ran through the halls which were practically empty. She couldn't pinpoint where he was. She felt his presence everywhere.

**

She cringed in pain as she dropped to her knees. Even though she had already fallen that didn't stop his attack. She had been thrown into walls, beaten, cut, but she still refused to fight back. He wanted her to scream to have Inuyasha come running, she wanted to re-awaken the kind-hearted Onigumo. He wouldn't kill her, he had a hatred for her, that's how she knew that a piece of Onigumo still resided somewhere in inside Naraku...that's why she wouldn't fight back.

*downstairs*

sniff sniff....'that smell..it smells like blood...Kagome's blood......Kagome's blood? Is she hurt?...Does she need my help?...She said he was...he was here...Did he hurt her? Hurt MY Kagome...' Inuyasha emotions changed from worried to anger. His peaceful face twisted into anger and his eyes shot open revealing gold with a slight tinit of red. In one swift movement he was up handing bounding to the roof.

*roof*

Kagome cringed as he picked her off the ground by her neck. She could feel the blood the trickled down her neck and join that which had almost dried. Naraku laughed. "You would rather die then kill me? A miko is suppose to be trained to kill demons. Not take pity or fall in love with them. Pathetic wench!" He threw her to the ground. "Look at where your pity has gotten you. If you really want to die then so be it!" He slowly walked over her and reached down to pick her up again when the door to the roof broken down.

Naraku and Kagome looked and saw a figure standing in the door way. "Inu...yasha..." She whispered softly. Inuyasha looked at her. "Kagome!", he said. He then turn to Naraku and closed his eyes in frustration. Naraku looked at him "So your Inuyasha? Well you have come just in time to see your woman die." "You will not touch a hair on her.", Inuyasha replied. His voice was deeper and his eyes opened gleaming red with blue pupils. Inuyasha stepped out of the shadows as Naraku's eyes widen. His claws where longer and he had two stripes on each cheek. When he growled his longer fangs showed themselves.

Kagome's eyes widen as she watched the fight. Inuyasha charged at Naraku and the battle of kicks and punches ensued. It seemed that even with Inuyasha transformation and new found strength he could still not beat Naraku for ever time he got close enough Naraku would pull another trick and get away. But Kagome was worried what would happen if Inuyasha did catch Naraku. It wasn't just his appearance that was different, but his movement too. Each strike was more rash and more ferocious. It was as if he only incentive was to kill, like a true demon.

'If it continues like this they will both kill themselves.", Kagome struggled as she slowly rose to her feet. 'I have to stop them.' Kagome braced herself against a few stacked boxes. Her powers were still strong, but with a weak body it didn't do her any good. If she tried to heal herself it would only waste energy. She could only barely support herself and watch as her love and her former best friend fought to kill.

I'm tired of being what you want me to be

For once in a long time, Kagome felt helpless.

Feeling so faithless,

Lost under the surface.

Inuyasha protected her when the were little, but he couldn't always protect himself. She wanted to do that for him.

Don't know what your expecting of me

And now she couldn't. She went through hell and back...and she was helpless again.

Put under the pressure

of walking in your shoes

[caught in the under tow, just caught in the under tow]

At that moment, Naraku's had went straight through Inuyasha stomach. Kagome collapsed to her knees in shock. 'It isn't fair!' Anger rose inside Kagome like a demon. She had to protect Inuyasha just like he would protect her, at all cost!

Every step that I take is another mistake to you...

[caught in the under tow, just caught in the under tow]

Her aura shot up, filled with her energy. It caused a blast similar to that of a nova and enveloped everything on the rooftop in one explosion attracting everyone's attention just as the were heading to class. Inuyasha opened his eyes to see a glowing Kagome pounding Naraku.

I've become so numb!

She didn't even take notice of him, her now pink eyes fixated only on Naraku who was unfortunately not transformed back like Inuyasha. Inuyasha panicked. Not only was he unaware of how he got there, but something was wrong with Kagome. "KAGOME!!"

I can't feel you there!

Kagome kicked Naraku off the roof and then jumped off beating Naraku more along the way.

I've become so tired!

So much more aware

Right before they hit the ground Kagome kicked Naraku into a tree then made a soft landing. The crowd instantly spread out into a circle around Kagome and the tree.

I'm becoming this

All I want to do

is be more like me

And less like you

Inuyasha landed behind her as she started moving towards Naraku. "Kagome! Stop this!"

Can't you see that your smothering me

Holding to tightly

Afraid to lose control

'Inuyasha...' Kagome paused and turned to look at him. She walked towards him, reached out slowly, and ran her hand along his face. Inuyasha instantly pulled her into an embrace, kissing her full force.

Cause everything that you thought I would be

Has fallen apart,

right in front of you

[caught in the under tow, just caught in the under tow]

She returned his kiss harshly, knocking them to the ground. Kagome's rationality struggled mentally to regain control, but to no avail. Her rational mind was currently lost to her wants. (Didn't I do that in my last story? ... I don't remember...oh well, if I did then I'm repetitive and can't have an original thought Waho!)

Every step that I take is another mistake to you

[caught in the under tow, just caught in the under tow]

Inuyasha was shocked as Kagome continued to kiss him. It was a kiss of passion, but that of lust. Not like he was going to protest, it did keep her from killing anyone, which he knew she would regret later, and he did enjoy. He could feel her settling down and returning back to normal...until someone interrupted that is.

Every second I waste

is more then I can take

"Get the fuck off of my man you slut!", yelled a girl, one of the few people who were left. "Kagome! Why are you kissing that dig turd!", yelled a guy. 'Kagome, no!', was the only thing Inuyasha thought as he felt Kagome's aura surge again as she pulled away from him. "Kagome..."

I've become so numb!

I can't feel you there!

Kagome stepped away from Inuyasha and looked at the two knew intruders. "UH,, you little wench...", came a weak voice from the side. Inuyasha looked to see Naraku moving slowly from his place in the tree that Kagome had kicked him into earlier.

I've become so tired!

So much more aware

I'm becoming this

All I want to do is be more like me

And less like you!

Kagome's energy pulsed as she faced her three new opponents. She could feel her once gained rationality slipping away once again.

And I know

I might end up failing too!

But I know

You were just like me

with someone disappointed in you!

Everything went black...

I've become so numb!

I can't feel you there!

I've become so tired!

So much more aware

I'm becoming this

All I want to do

is be more like me

And less like you!

I've become so numb!

I can't feel you there!

[I'm tired of being what you want me to be]

I've become so numb!

I can't feel you there!

[I'm tired of being what you want me to be]

********************************************************************************************

Still short, I know. But hey, I got over my writers block and it is an update. The song, despite what most of you might think, is really suppose to represent Kagome's own conflict within herself. What she is, what she wants to be, and what she needs to be. I might seem repetitive, but everything I do has a deeper meaning. And for those of you who have discovered them. I congratulate you. The next chapter will be the end. I was going to write it all here, but I figure it should be up in a few days, I promise! Don't forget to review
