Chapter 3
At the battle scene everything was darker. The trees swayed in the ominous wind. Sango stood with in her full slayer attire. Beside her Kirara was in big demon mode snarling at the ominous force. Miroku stood on the other side of Kirara with his staff and Wind Tunnel poised and ready for battle. Inuyasha and Sesshomaru stood next to him hands on their swords with new bonds of friendship and love making them all stronger. Just then the wind stopped as if it was the eye of the storm and a herd of demons came racing from the clouds. Straight for the group. Miroku cursed when he realized that Naraku's poisonous insects were also there. Kirara opened her mouth and sent out a burst of flames killing most of them.
"Good job Kirara," said Miroku. Just then Inuyasha attacked the last few.
"Iron Revere, Soul Stealer," he yelled killing the last of them. Miroku nodded and opened his wind tunnel. The rest of the group held their ground as the void sucked in almost all of the demons. Sango began helping with her Bone Boomerang. Before long the number of demons was halved.
"Come out and show yourself you stupid baboon," Inuyasha yelled. In a swirl of miasma Naraku stood with Kanna and Kagura.
"I see the girl is not here," said Naraku.
"Your fight is not with Kagome," said Sesshomaru.
"So true. Which is why Kanna and Kagura will find her while I dispose of you weaklings," he said. Kagura and Kanna flew off on one of Kagura's feathers. Inuyasha knew nothing would happen to them and focused on Naraku. "Oh yes. Sango there is someone here who I believe is dying to meet you," said Naraku. Beside him materialized Kohaku. "Go embrace your sister Kohaku," said Naraku. Kohaku bowed to Naraku before charging at her.
"How sick can you be sending her little brother after her," said Inuyasha attacking him. Naraku blocked him only to turn and par off with Sesshomaru.
"Oh how nice to see you again Sesshomaru," said Naraku. "How is that little wench of yours?" he taunted.
"You will not speak of Rin that way," said Sesshomaru as he attacked with his Tokijin. Naraku tried to par it with a tentacle but the sword sliced right through taking with it half of Naraku's arm. He turned just in time to see Inuyasha come from behind and knocked the younger demon brother several feet away.
"Damn where is that Kagura and Kanna with the other half of the jewel shard?" Naraku asked his self.
"Ha Kagome was enough for them," said Inuyasha. Naraku just snarled and attacked again paring with both of the brothers at once.
Kagome & the others
Kagome sat in the barrier with her bow and arrows ready. She, Shippo, and Rin were prepared for whatever came their way. While sitting there they had discovered a few thing Rin could do with her newfound sorceress powers. One was she had control over fire and ice. Also to their surprise she could also cause a small hypnosis. Suddenly Kagome jumped up and looked into the sky.
"Watch out here comes Kanna and Kagura," she warned. Shippo got up preparing his Fox Fire and Rin made sure she was ready if she was needed. Kagura and Kanna landed in front of them.
"It's nice to see you so out in the open and ready for us," said Kagura.
"Either way that doesn't help you much," Kagome said.
"Just give us the jewel shard and we'll see if we can spare your lives," said Kagura. Kagome furrowed her brows. 'They think we have the shard,' she thought.
"No dice," said Shippo. Kagura smirked.
"Your death," she said before attacking. "Dance of the Dragons," she yelled. The attack raced for the barrier and hit. Kagura and Kanna were shocked as the blades of wind came back at them striking them both unconscious. Kagome fired arrows at the two purifying them and saving their hearts from Naraku's power. In a instant Rin had put both of the incantations under a spell and the group watched as they flew back to the battle scene.
Battle Scene
Inuyasha and Sesshomaru were still coming at him. They both had their own collection of scars some of which were bleeding heavily others that they barely noticed. Kirara and Miroku were nearly done with the rest of the demons but both were hurt. Sango and Kohaku were both hurt with Kohaku registering the most fatigue. Sango continued to attack trying not to hurt her little brother too badly. Suddenly Naraku doubled over in pain. Inuyasha and Sesshomaru stopped in their tracks. Naraku began to laugh.
"I don't know what your wench did but she will pay for taking Kanna and Kagura away from me," he growled before attacking again, but Inuyasha and Sesshomaru noticed the difference in strength the demon now had and used it to their advantage. Suddenly Kagura and Kanna landed in the clearing. Kanna in front of Sango pared Kohaku's attack before sending it back at him with her mirror knocking him unconscious. Kagura landed next to Miroku and attacked the remaining demon.
"Dance of the Dragon," she yelled swinging her fan at the rest of the demons killing them all. Kanna and Kagura faced Naraku who screamed in rage.
"What do you think you are doing?" he yelled.
"They can no longer hear you as long as you don't have their hearts and are under my control," came Rin's voice from Kagura.
"Rin?" asked Sesshomaru.
"I've found my new improvements give me a wide range of advantages against you Naraku," said Rin.
"Kagura…Kanna kill them," said Naraku. Kagura and Kanna stared at him dumbly.
"After they help us defeat you they will have their own lives to live as long as they don't come near us, but why would they when Kagome's has granted them freedom from you?" they voice spoke. Naraku prepared to attack the two but stopped short. He lifted his head to see Inuyasha stabbing Tetsusiga through the spider mark on his back. Naraku began to scream in rage but it stopped suddenly when the Tokijin lopped off his head. At once the miasma clouded sky disappeared and Naraku's body turned into dust. When it settled on the ground it decayed until it was nothing but in the center of the rotten patch of earth was the other half of the Shikon Jewel. Inuyasha picked it up placing it with the other half. It melded together. Kagura and Kanna free left at once not wanting to feel out of place. All of a sudden a familiar smell surrounded his senses. He sighed as the group came around him.
"I'm going to wish my wish now," he told them.
"Aren't you going to wait for Kagome?" Sango asked startled.
"No, Kikyo's waiting," said Inuyasha. Sango was about to speak up but Inuyasha stopped her. "I know what I'm doing. Kagome just being her will make it harder. Tell her I said sorry," he said lifting the Jewel over his head and closed his eyes to make his wish. 'First I wish that I and whoever I chose to me my mate could chose if we want to be hanyou, youkai, or human whenever we want. Next I wish that in the future Sango, Miroku, Kohaku, Sesshomaru, Rin, Shippo, Kirara, and I will reborn around the same time Kagome is born with all our memories and abilities but not remember until a day before her birthday on which we will all meet at Kagome's house,' he wished. The jewel flared brightly before it went back dim. He handed it to Sango before handing Miroku his Tetsusiga.
"What's this for?" he asked.
"Put it somewhere where I can find it one day," said Inuyasha turning to leave. Everyone watched as he left. Sesshomaru left to gather Rin, Kagome, and Shippo while the others made camp. Just as they entered the camp a bright light rose into the sky about a half mile away. Kagome looked around the group then back to the area where the light was now fading. Sango walked up to Kagome with tears in her eyes. She grabbed her hands placing something inside.
"He said he's sorry but if he waited for you it would only be harder," said Sango. Kagome took a step back shaking her head.
"No, he-he promised," she stuttered. Sango looked away from her as tears fell from her eyes. Kagome looked into her hand to see the slightly pale jewel. She shook her head again before turning and running towards the area the light had been. Miroku enveloped Sango in a hug before leading her to where Kohaku was still sleeping. Shippo went off to a tree where he too cried for the man who was like a father to him. Rin hid her face in Sesshomaru's robes to muffle her sobs for her heartbroken new best friend. Sesshomaru sighed and carried Rin away in privacy. All around the camp was a feeling of sorrow for the broken heart of a love that seemed lost.
Kagome continued to run towards where she had seen the light. The now useless Shikon Jewel clenched in her hands all the while thinking of her newfound love and a broken promise. She tripped as she came into the clearing and didn't bother getting up right away, she just sat there and cried. She cried until she noticed something on a rock not to far away. She stood and walked over to it. Another tear fell from her eye when she noticed it was the beaded necklace that had bound Inuyasha to Kagome. Under it was a piece of paper address to her. She sat on the rock with the Jewel and necklace in her hand and read the note.
Kagome
If my plan went as I planned Naraku is dead and my wish is granted. If you are reading this note that means the last part is also fulfilled. Kikyo has come to take me to hell with her and I have gone. I'm sorry I had to do this to you but I have to keep my promise. I ALWAYS keep my promises not matter what. If your wondering Kikyo removed the beads I hope you will keep them in memory of me. Try not to cry too much after all your birthday is coming up soon. Just remember I loved you and always will.
Inuyasha
Kagome re-read the note a few times before crying the rest of the day. She had lost something very important that day. She had lost her one true love something she would never get back. She dried her tears and looked at the beaded necklace.
"Who knew something like this would mean so much," she said to herself. "It's all I have left of him," she thought. She thought back to the letter. "So much for keeping your promise of being at my birthday," she said sourly. "It's all Kikyo's fault. If she hadn't been remade then we could have stayed together," she thought now bitterly. Kagome stood and grabbed a bow and arrow from her back where she had them. She strung hem and notched an arrow before taking aim at a tree. Suddenly a ball of light came from the scorched grown and dove into Kagome's body. Images began to play before her eyes, but they were more like memories.
"Kikyo before I go to hell with you, you have to do me two favors," came Inuyasha's voice as the image unfolded. It was the very clearing they were in. Inuyasha and Kikyo stood about a arms length apart.
"Fine," she said. Inuyasha took a deep breath. He could barely smell Kagome with the scent of clay and dirt everywhere.
"First I want you to remove these beads," said Inuyasha. Kikyo did that and stepped back. Inuyasha took another breath. "Now I want Kagome to have the rest of the soul you two share," he said. Kikyo looked taken back but in the end nodded.
"Fine the moment she tries to use any of her miko powers her soul will be complete releasing all of her powers as if they were my own," she said. Inuyasha nodded and drew a note out of his red coat before placing it on the rock with the beaded necklace. He let a tear slip from his eye.
"Five hundred years of hell coming right up, all for you Kagome" he whispered as he went back to Kikyo. She embrace him which he didn't return before dragging him into to hell in a flash of bright light then the memory faded.
Kagome blinked her eyes to see herself glowing a pink color. In her head knowledge of so much swirled around before everything settled and the glow receded into her body. Kagome felt better knowing that he had done everything for her but would forever miss him. She turned and headed back to the camp. Once she reached there she informed everyone of her completed soul and renew miko powers. She then healed Kohaku and Rin of their injuries. Everyone sat and ate a quiet dinner. Near the end Kagome announced that the next day she would be returning home. This brought back a new fresh round of tears. It took Kagome forever to calm Shippo, Sango, and Rin down. In the end they all climbed into their sleeping bags and went to sleep dreading the next day.
Kagome fell asleep clutching the beads and Jewel dreaming of Inuyasha in modern day clothes before too long the light of a new day kissed her eyelids and the image faded.
