"Talking"

'Thinking'

Last time on 'A Stranger in my Dreams':

Inuyasha: "You always were very stubborn even when I first tried to kill you. You refused to die, but now I won't have to worry about a stupid bitch ruining my life."

As he was talking he put some of his blood on his claws.

Inuyasha
: "Now time to die… Blades of Blood! "

Meanwhile in the village

Shippo: "I smell blood…no wait…its Kagome, Kagome's hurt!"

Sango: "What! Come on Miroku-Sama we have to go save her. Kirara!

CHAPTER 3

Kagome was getting weaker and weaker. Her blood was splattered everywhere, her arms were covered in scratches and bruises, but she had managed to make a small barrier around her, however even the barrier was starting to fall apart.

Kagome's P.O.V.

'Why is he doing this…why does he want me dead…after all we've been through together…he still loves Kikyo and probably wants my soul to give it back to her I thought I changed him…I thought he didn't hate me anymore…looks like he still does…he will always hold a grudge against me…it's all my fault…and I deserve his punishment after all I have done to him…I don't deserve to live…after I sat him so many times and treated him like a dog…I don't deserve his friendship…or his love.' She thought tears escaping her eyes.

Normal P.O.V

The barrier was finally gone after Inuyasha kept on trying to destroy it with his claws. His hands were burnt because of the barrier; it was almost as though he didn't feel any pain, only fury and rage.

'It's almost as though he has become a full demon, but his eyes aren't red and there are no marks on his cheeks.'

Meanwhile somewhere else

"My, my, my, Inuyasha is doing an excellent job at disposing the girl, wouldn't you agree Kagura?"

"Yes Naraku…except she isn't dead yet."

"Oh don't worry she will be. Once she's dead, her soul will go back to Kikyo and then I will have the pleasure of killing her now that I don't have Onigumo's heart. Muahahahaha!"

With Sango, Miroku and Kirara

Miroku: "There seems to be a very ominous aura in the area. It's as though the aura is trying to take control of your soul, wouldn't you agree Sango."

Sango: "So you've noticed it too? Kirara has been growing very restless since we left the village; it's almost as if she is fighting for control over herself."

Miroku: "Well we must hurry."

Sango: "Hurry Kirara, Kagome will be in deep trouble if we don't hurry!"

With Inuyasha and Kagome

Inuyasha's P.O.V.

'Everyone hates me… Kagome… you hate me too…Kikyo…you always hated me a stupid hanyou like me does not deserve neither of you…you're both too good for me. Why is it so dark I feel like I'm moving but I can't see what's going on?'

Normal P.O.V

Somewhere near Kagome and Inuyasha, Naraku's puppet was laughing his head off.

'Muahahahaha! Inuyasha you surprise me, all it takes to bring you down is to make you feel hated by the ones you love. Poor little Kagome, you surprise me too you couldn't even sense my jewel shards. This time Inuyasha I am victorious! You haven't won like you won Kikyo fifty years ago! Muahahahaha! Even if I don't have Onigumo's heart Kikyo will serve well for my lust and Kagome can cease to exist! Muahahahaha!

Just as he finished his thought Kagome screamed out. There she was lying in a pool of her own blood with Inuyasha looming over her smirking.

'Inuyasha why you have a huge smile on your face by seeing me in pain, but your eyes tell a different story? Why do your eyes hold so much sadness? Wait a minute I sense something. JEWEL SHARDS! Lots of them. That could be only one person, NARAKU! Is it possible that Naraku is controlling Inuyasha?'

"NARAKU! SHOW YOURSELF I KNOW YOU ARE THERE!

"Well it's about time."

"I know you've done something to Inuyasha. TELL ME! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO HIM!

"You're very sharp I see. Well I guess I could as your last death wish. I made Inuyasha believe that all the ones he loves hate him, and well what can I say being the dog that he is he believed it and with all that negative energy starting to flow through him I managed to get control over him using the jewel shards. You can't stop me even if you know now."

"I can't stop you I know that but I can try to get through to him."

'My love will reach him somehow."

Kagome slowly got up and tried talking to him

'The jewel shards are in his chest. Why didn't I notice before?'

Slowly she reached up to him and grabbed his arms.

Inuyasha's P.O.V.

"Even if everyone hates me I still want to protect them. Wait I can see something… finally… wait is that Kagome? It is her! She's covered in blood. Her own blood. Wait…is that her blood on my hands? Did I do this? Wait I can here something… my senses are coming back.

"Inuyasha listen to me. Naraku is trying to control you by making you think we hate you. You have to resist him. No one hates you."

"K-Kagome…"

"Yes Inuyasha it's me"

"What is happening the corrupted jewel shard is being purified… that doesn't matter I will just add more negative energy."

Normal P.O.V

"Aaaahhhhh!"

"Inuyasha! I know you're in pain but we need you right now more then ever! You can't let Naraku win."

"Fine Inuyasha. If you continue trying to resist I might as well kill you too"

Naraku's tentacles shot out from him and pierced Inuyasha everywhere from behind.

"Inuyasha!"

"Now Inuyasha kill her or else I will kill her and all your other loved ones.

The darkness was starting to take over again. Inuyasha punched Kagome away from him and loomed over her once again, with his claws ready to attack.

Just then Sango Miroku and Kirara landed.

"Kagome-Sama!"

"Kagome-Chan!"

"Miroku-Sama, Sango-Chan!"

"Well it looks a little over crowded so it's my time to leave farewell."

"Naraku you coward I will get my revenge for my village."

"Naraku! Before my time is done I will look down upon your corpse and smile"

"Don't be so confident Monk consider yourself lucky"

And with that Naraku vanished.

Inuyasha noticing everyone was here jumped away.

"Kagome…"

"Yes Inuyasha that's it."

Blood was seeping through Inuyasha's clothing and it wasn't Kagome's blood. He could tell that he would be unconscious soon if he didn't get help.

"Inuyasha stop! Resist Naraku! Fight it! We all love you! No one hates you!"

"You're lying."

"No I'm not! Whenever you go to see Kikyo I get jealous but I still stay by your side because I care. Now come on I know you don't want to kill us, we all love you"

"Kagome…I-I can't…. I'm-I'm sorry…N-no one loves me or ac-accepts…I've lost too much blood. I'm going to die and I know it"

"No Inuyasha! We all love you, I LOVE YOU! I WANT TO STAY WITH YOU! DON'T LEAVE ME!"

Miroku and Sango were watching wide eyed from a distance, ready to attack Inuyasha if necessary.

"You love me?"

"YES I DO! I LOVE YOU!"

As fast as her body could take her (considering she's pretty beaten up) she ran to Inuyasha and hugged him with all her heart.

"I love you…I love you…I love you Inuyasha"

Suddenly the jewel shards in Inuyasha's chest popped out. They had been purified by Kagome's love.

"Kagome"

"Yes Inuyasha, I'm here what is it"

"I lo-love…"

He was never able to finish his sentence because he finally fell unconscious.

"Inuyasha? INUYASHA!"

Her body also couldn't hold out any longer and she too fell unconscious.

"KAGOME-CHAN!"

"KAGOME-SAMA!"

"Miroku-Sama we have to get them to Kaede's!"

"Yes let's go!"

But then Miroku's hand twitched.

Rub, rub

SLAP!

"HENTAI!"

"Sango I swear it's the hand"

"RiGhT. Come on Kirara!"

Well that's it for now. Please review people.
