The Biggest Choice of All

previously on The Biggest Choice of All: Inuyasha shook his head in unknowingness, not knowing what he should do.He knew he had to make a decision now or he'd lose them both. "I don't know what to do?" The wind blew softly in the background. Everyone waited for an answer from their "leader."

Chapter 4: The Battle part two betrayals and the heart

Inuyasha was so confused, he had no idea what to do. To stay with Kikyo or save Kagome?

It was a hard decision for hanyou to have made, but there wasn't much time left, he had to decide. Time doesn't time for anyone, that he knew, though choosing against the two most important women in his life was difficult. He couldn't just save one and let the other suffer or die. This type of thing wasn't in his nature. He was one of those people who wouldn't leave a comrade behind no matter how bad the situation was.

He broke out of his thoughts when he heard Kikyo gasped. She was suffering in pain something that Inuyasha never did enjoy seeing. Her hand was to heart where blood was seeping out. He tore a piece of his clothing to wrap around her chest for a bandage. He knew she wasn't going to live much longer, but he didn't want to leave her here alone. To Inuyasha it would feel as if he were abandoning Kikyo to go after Kagome. No, he didn't want the living, dead priestess to suffer more than she was already suffering. However, he didn't want Kagome to die because of foolishness either.

Miroku and the others, stared at the half demon, trying to anticipate his plans. Kouga was frustrated and hysterical. The wolf demon kept pacing back and forth for damn mutt face to have made up his mind and still there was no response from him. 'Just what is the damn mutt waiting for? Kagome's in danger and he ain't doing a damn thing.' Kouga was tempted to ring the dog turd's neck if he waited much longer.

"Hey Mutt face are we going after Naraku or not?"

Miroku ignored the wolf and went over to Inuyasha and clasped his hand on his shoulder in a comforting matter. He felt grief for the half demon, for choicing one of the two women he loved. He knew if he had to choose between two people, it would just as hard as how Inuyasha's. Miroku turned his head in the direction where the demon exterminator stood quietly. How it would pain him if his love would end up in this sort of predicament. He shook such negative thoughts aside, and focused his attention to the hanyou before him.

"Inuyasha have you decided?"

Inuyasha rose from his crutched position by Kikyo. Kikyo's dull brown eyes looked into golden ones trying to read his mind and gaze into his soul.

"I'm going." He paused not wanting to speak of his idea. "But I'm afraid it's too late. She could be dead or close to death like Kikyo." His gaze turned to the miko laying in her own blood. "If we did give Naraku the rest of the jewel shards, he could turn on his word and kill Kagome. It may be a trap." Tears threaten to spill to the tainted soil. His fist tightened, when he felt a cold hand grabbed onto his. He opened his eyes to meet emotionless brown eyes. The half demon was bewildered at Kikyo's action. Kikyo wasn't one who would react quickly.

The priestess gave Inuyasha one of her rare smiles, as the hanyou's heart began to race. Kikyo wiped his tear's away pulled his body closer so he could listen to her closely. "Inuyasha...you need to go Kagome...her life depends on it." She rasped. Her breathing, had made it nearly impossible. It exhausted her for her to keep her eyes open now.

Inuyasha looked at the priestess before he nodded in agreement. When they were about to Naraku's direction, Kikyo called to the half demon. The sliver, haired teenager faced the miko once more. She smiled again. Waving a best as she possibly can, she told Inuyasha to release her of this torment. The boy froze. How could he do such a request for anyone of that matter.He pulled Tetsuiaga out of it's sheath and held over his head. He looked into her eyes one last time, to reassure if that is what she intended for him to do as she smiled and closed her eyes. In one swifted move the priestess was no longer with the living.

"Come on!" Kouga urged the others to follow as he took leader miles ahead of everyone else.

Sango put a hand on Inuyasha's shoulder, feeling his pain. It hurt her to find her best friend so gloomy, it wasn't something he was. "Gomen, I feel horrible that you had to go through with that, don't worry this sort of situation won't happen again we'll make sure of it."

Inuyasha smirked at Sango's speech. "Arigato, Sango." They headed into the same direction their left to go rescue Kagome with the jewel shards in his hands.

iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

As the group neared closer and closer to the purplish barrier Inuyasha's mind drafted to times with Kikyo and Kagome. However the more he remembered, the more he realized how much Kagome truly meant to him. He loved Kikyo sure, but the Kikyo he knew died a long time ago. The one now was only integrated by hatred and clay, nothing more. He knew what he had to do. He knew what he must to do to save the one he loved.

"There it is!" Shippo shouted with hid behind Sango and Miroku on Kilala.

"Stand back everyone!" Inuyasha shouted as he brought down a red Tetsuaiga destroying the barrier.

"Good trick dog boy now move aside I have to rescue my mate, Kagome!" Kouga shoved Inuyasha back as he ran towards Kagome's scent inside the castle.

Inuyasha pushed himself up as he bit his lip. 'How dare that baka, tick covered, mutt! Kagome's not his, she's mine!' "Kouga get your butt back here, I'm the one who's going to rescue Kagome!" Hollowering to the wolf demon, however, the wolf demon didn't turn around. Inuyasha ran after Kouga to in hopes of beating the wolf before he arrived.

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Kagome was bleeding badly. Standing was now a problem. Naraku's plan's were to kill Kagome before he received the jewels shards, though it was harder than he predicted it to be. The miko was quick to dodge any attack he made against her, or sometimes her aura grew with incredible priestess powers, resulting him to fall back. Naraku, though, got the upper hand when she tripped over a piece of a floorboard, wrapping his tentacles around the girls' fraigle body. He picked up a sword from the ground and pressed it against her flesh. The blade pierced into her neck. Blood drickled onto the sword and on the floor. Naraku smirked at her weakness.

Kagome who was struggling for air, but she didn't want to show her weaken side of her enemy. She wanted to show him she was not going to give up no matter what.

"You won't get away with this, we'll destory you for all the cause you have set upon everyone."

Naraku only laughed. "Say as you wish but I believe I will win, and the shikon jewel shards will be mine."

As Naraku was about to send the final blow he heard a scream coming from the doorway, as a blade clashed with his. He turned aversion eyes to the source only to growl in his throat at his enemy.

"KuKuKu!"

"Naraku you bastard." Inuyasha yelled out enraged when he saw the sword grew nearer to Kagome's neck.

"I wouldn't do that if I were you, would you ever consider to kill Kagome in the process of killing me?"

"Grr, curse you Naraku." Inuyasha was already ready to hand over the shards when Kagome was shouted to him.

"No, Inuyasha don't do it, it's a trap!"

"Gomen Kagome, I have no choice. Given the choice between you and the jewel shards, I'd choice you."

The moment when Inuyasha gave the half demon the jewel shards the whole castle started to shake. The curly haired man, grabbed the sword he was using to kill the priestess. Inuyasha shouted for the miko's name, when an obscure figure grabbed her before she was pierced. The scent of wolf was in the air as Inuyasha recongized who it was. At that second he was glad to see Kouga's ugly face, which usually was never.

"Hey baka, are you that much of an idiot to let Naraku almost kill "my" mate?"

However, his gratitude to the wolf soon perished.

"GRR, Kouga she is not your woman you tick covered rodent!"

Completely forgetting his surroundings and who Kouga was holding, Inuyasha drew Tetsuaiga at Kouga as he dodged it by an inch.

"Ha, you missed!" Kouga as well had forgotten as he gave the hanyou a round kick in the sternum.

It knocked the wind out of Inuyasha for a milisecond before he regained his energy as the two were at it once more.

Sango, Miroku, Shippo, Kilala, Ginnta, and Hakaku sweat dropped at their silly quibble. Miroku cleared his throat to the two as they haulted to stare at the monk.

"I don't mean to interrupt your battle, but there is three things you did not consider. One: Kagome is in Kouga's arms." The two demons looked at Kouga's arms as they both laughed nervously. "And two: Were in the middle of a battle and there is no time to be fighting each other." They noticed Naraku was now fighting Sesshomaru, who appeared out of no where. "And three: This place is caving in and I don't know about the two of you, but I much prefer not to get squashed."

Sango shook her head in agreement. "I have to agree with the monk. Now let's get out of here!" Sango, Miroku, and Shippo, rode away on Kilala as Inuyasha and Kouga somehow to manage to get out.

Outside, there was an eerie silence. No movement from the inside was heard of. Then suddenly...the ground started to shake violently. They all moved aside in order to avoid being driven in as Naraku emerged from the castle's remain, though no Sesshomaru. The jewel's glow could be seen inside his chest as his aura succumb powers.

"Kukukuku you fools, did you really believe you could be I, Naraku and escape with your lives?"

"Nani? He...He's still alive." Shippo stuttered, while he hid behind Kilila.

"Damn, Kagome you stay here K? Kouga put her down NOW!" She shook her head as he and everyone went after Naraku, excluding Shippo, Ginnta, and Hakaku who were there to protect her from Kouga's orders.

"Windtunnel!"

"Boomerang Bone!"

"GRRRUUUUUHHH!"

"Wind Scar!"

"Scissor Kick!"

Shimshyoo emerged from Naraku's body as they headed to Miroku's windtunnel. Miroku closed it, when he saw them, though some did manage to enter. Sango's turned her attention away from the fight concerned about Miroku. Naraku tossed back her weapon as it hit Sango. She gasped, from the impact as she fell down, unconscious on Miroku. The monk shook Sango, afraid if she may never wake up. He flinched, when he felt the affect of the insects poison taking over, as he too passed out.

Kilala, clawed, and bit onto Naraku's body only to receive posion, as she howled in pain. One of Naraku's tentacles wrapped itself around the cat demon. A nasty crack could be heard, when he tossed aside the demon. Kilala's body landed near Sango and Miroku. Her transformed body, turning back into the kitty verison.

Kouga's kick didn't do any damage what so ever. He was thrown aside as well to the number of bodies piling up. However, he wasn't knock unconscious.

The windscar did nick Naraku's new body, but that was all. He too was thrown to the side like all the others. Though, same as Kouga he didn't faint from being thrown.

Naraku stared at bordom. He obsorbed it in a different perspective and as well thought it be bordoming. To him it felt like he was fighting off or warding off flies, instead of demons and such. Though, maybe insects would put up more of a fight, Naraku thought. He saw movement from the pile as it got up. The now full demon smirked. 'Hmm...now things are going to interesting.'

Inuyasha pulled himself from the pile. He growled, a red hint to his eyes. His demonatic side desperately to waken and take control of his hanyou body. Inuyasha was pissed, he unleashed the backlash wave as Naraku hurled an orb of energy at Inuyasha's. The backlash wave wrapped itself around the orb of energy as it tried to take it to Naraku, though the backlash backfired and aimed itself hurling itself towards Inuyasha. Inuyasha hadn't had the time to dodge the attack quickly, only to block it with his sheath. The sheath, blocked most of the strike, but it did not mean Inuyasha didn't get hit as well.

"Nani, it hadn't worked?" He gasped for air he tried to regain.

"Kukuku, that's correct it didn't work because I'm more powerful than any demon alive. No one can defeat me---" His sentence was cut of short by wind blades from the sky. They shattered the breastplate protecting his chest. His blood red eyes turned black when he saw his intruder.

"Hmm...Kagura so you finally decided to show your true colors?" The full demon laughed.

"Wha-Kagura was against Naraku just the same as us?" Kagome stared in confusion. 'Though, why now? Why didn't she change sides a long time ago?'

"Ha, Naraku I'm taking anymore orders from you anymore, I want to be free, in order to do that is for me to destroy you." She waved her fan, as more wind blades danced around Naraku.

Naraku only smirked at this remark. "You think you can be freedom by destroying me? Well I'll return you to my flesh and you can finally have your freedom."

In a second he wrapped his tentacles arms around her neck, as he crushed her neck slowly. Kagura was surprised by his awsome speed he had gained. She struggled with the tentacle to release her, but to no avail. Her body went limp in his hold. It seemed there was no hope for the wind demon. However, out of the debre, arose the great, dog demon, Lord Sesshomaru wielding his sword Tokijin. He slashed threw the tentacles that held Kagura as she feel into Sesshomaru's hold.

Everyone was shocked at what had just taken palace in front of their very eyes. Sesshomaru had saved someone, and not just someone, Kagura. Kagura as well was surprised by Sesshomaru's actions for saving, though she didn't mind deep down.

Naraku, regrouped himself from the last attack as he hissed. 'Shit, Sesshomaru was close to getting the jewel. I shouldn't let my guard down with him.' He stood and waited for someone to strike, however when he was striked it wasn't something predicable. An arrow whizzed threw the air and hit the mark where the jewel laid dorm made. The black, haired, demon was brought to his knees and panting.

Inuyasha, along with everybody else turned to Kagome. She was breathing harshly, and looked pale. The blood continued to spill from her wounds. Inuyasha's eyes turned to those of worry when he spoke to her gently.

"Kagome, what do you think your doing, he's dangerous you could get yourself killed."

Kagome yelled. "I don't care as long as he walks this earth than no one will be safe." She grabbed another arrow from her pack, pulled the string and releashed another arrow at the crutched demon. A howl was heard from Naraku.

"Kagome I don't think with your condition--" Sesshomaru cut off his brother when he patted his shoulder. Inuyasha was shocked by his brother's response, since his brother wasn't a brotherly kind of person. His brother gave him some friendly advice.

"Inuyasha, that girl is right. She may be the only one who could send Naraku to his death." Sesshomaru said to Inuyasha in a monotone voice. Inuyasha finally accepted terms.

Kagome hobbled to the now injured Naraku. His was in excruciating pain, when he used some of his tentacles to surport his body. His raged eyes tried to burn a hole through the miko's skull. She drew another arrow from her pack, and steadied it. 'Damn, that wench! She must die!' When she fired an arrow she missed when he moved towards her.

"Kagome, Move. Get out of there!" Shouts from Inuyasha and everyone were deaf to her hears. Her only concentration was the battle.

She closed her eyes as if she were to meditate. Wind swirled around the young priestess. Someone was calling her. No, it wasn't just one, it was two that called for her. She concentrated harder to focus on the two as their spirits came into view. Opening her eyes she was shocked at who was standing there. It was the spirits of Kikyo and Midoriko. They were calling Kagome's name. They both wore warm smiles, as they stared at the young miko.

'Kagome, we need your body?'

"What, why?" She asked the spirits.

'Kagome, we need it to combine all our priestess powers together to destroy Naraku. Don't you want to protect Inuyasha and the others?' Kikyo's ghost questioned Kagome.

"Hai, I do. Hai, I will do this to save the world and everyone that I love in it."

A brilliant light surrounded the battle field, creating an allusion like effect. The group had to shield their eyes from the awsome light that seemed to have outlighted even the sun. Kagome's school uniform she wore was no longer on her. Instead she wore a priestess outfit. The top was white, with a silver chain on that had the symbol of a pentagon on. Her pants were royal blue along with black slippers. Her hair now was worn in a ponytail held by a single white ribbon. Enchanted beads like Inuyasha's were around her neck as well. When she opened her eyes, the spirits of Midoriko and Kikyo stood byside her.

"Whoa, is that...?" Sango asked Miroku who was feelings strangely better.

"I'm I believe so. Lady Kagome had tapped into the powers of all the most powerful priestess's of this time."

"Ki- Kikyo." Inuyasha's face soften when he saw the one he loved long ago. He wanted to go over to her and hug her, but he knew he couldn't for she had not come alive once more.

"What sort of trickery is this?"

Naraku was confused by the miko's new transforming. 'How could such a wreckless child transform into a powerful priestess?' He shook the thought away. He unleashed miasma at Kagome. It stung her slightly, but it didn't faze her. With one hand movement, the miasma had disppeared as if it never existed.

Frustrated by this downfall, he made a spell on one of his tentacles into a sword. It oozed black toxic from the hault, as he charged. Kagome wasn't impressed by his trick, she closed her eyes to focus on a weapon of her own. Light lit the battlefield once more, as an enchanting, magnificent, sword. The intire sword was made of gold with sapphires, and rubies, emeralds, on the hault. The hault's handle was grooved around the hand for anyone to use.

Metal clashed against, metal. Good verses evil. Demon verses priestess. The battle raged on. It didn't last long because of the gold sword broke through the Naraku's sword. Now the demon was defenseless and nothing to fiend himself with. Anger suddenly grew within the new priestess just seeing how the man she fought with for years was now cowering in fear. She slashed at his shoulder.

"This is for the innocent you've destroyed!" He hissed in pain.

"This is for pinning me down like a coward!" She sliced through the bone on Naraku's arm, disarming him.

Tears rolled down her delicate face when she laid the final blow. "And this is for the pain you caused for Inuyasha."

She decapitaed Naraku as everything flashed with the beautiful colors of victory. However, before she made the final blow. He struck her with miasma in her system. Once the light faded, they group approached the jaded priestess. She smiled at everyone, glad that everyone was safe as she fell.

Inuyasha caught her before she even hit the ground. Her new priestess abilites slowly vanished as Midoriko and Kikyo's ghost remained by her side. Sango cried in the monk's haori as well as Kagura, who was supported by Sesshomaru. Though, the one who cried the most was the hanyou that held her lifeless body. It sadden the group that someone so brave, so young, had to go before there time. It even sadden the demon lord as well. The jewel where used to be Naraku laid, purified, beautiful, and innocent like a pebble. No one cared about the jewel they seeked for over the years, they only had their attention on the lifeless miko in front of them.

Though, despite the tradity, they were impressed and shocked to believe Kagome beat Naraku all on her own, it made them slightly happy, but without her alive it seemed like there was no reason to live at all. Sure there was good things to this Kagura was set free, Miroku's wind tunnel was gone, Sango had her brother back ,and Kouga's tribe was avenged, and also Inuyasha avengeness for Kikyo as well. Still there was one soul that could not be saved.

Their tears lit the battlefield like a river. Their tears fell upon Kagome's face, Inuyasha's mostly.

bump, bump

Someone's heart beat started up. It started out slow and then steadily it regained it's normal rhythm. Eleven pairs of eyes turned their gaze to the lifeless miko. Her eyelids to started to flitter, until they finally opened with success. Her chocolate brown eyes saw first were those of gold. She thought she was dreaming. She assumed that she was laying in her bedroom and any minute she'd wake up to find Inuyasha outside of her window, telling her to get up to help search for Shikon Shards, but it wasn't a dream.

She smiled, glad it wasn't a dream as she heard everyone sigh in relief.

"Kagome?" Inuyasha was sort of timid of asked at all. It felt all to like a dream to be real to him. I mean, he almost lost his love of his life right before his eyes.

"Inuyasha?" She tried to lift her hand to face as she wiped away his tears. "Inuyasha, were you crying for me?" Her answer was received when a blush tinted his face.

"No..no..I...that is...no." He turned his back away from Kagome and crossed his arms and huffed. Everyone laughed at how adorable he acted, which made his blush deepen.

Soon everyone departed. Others stayed. Kouga did his famous proposal as Inuyasha was sit for trying to strangle Kouga. Before he left he gave Kagome a peck on her cheek, skiping in his run as he heard his rival fuss.

The Inuyasha group went to Kaede's to celebrate the victory. Everyone was filled with joy except one soul, Kagome. Her mind was worried over recent events and how much she would hate her later decision. She would have to leave everyone from this era forever.

LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
