Here I go! I think next chappy will be the last one.

Chapter 17, Starting the battle

They all were in Miroku's room. He was conscious already and there was only a scar left on his stomach, but the healer had said that he had to stay in bed and get strength.

"I think we should go as soon as possible." Said Inuyasha. "The demon continues turning the villagers into ghosts if we won't do something."

"You're right. But it's so hard to beat…" Mumbled Kagome.

"We can defeat him, no doubt of it!" Comforted Sango. "I'm ready to kill that damn demon!"

"Well you're not out of fighting spirit." Refer Inuyasha.

"You should still stay here." Sango said to Miroku, who was sitting next to her.

"I agree. Just leave this to us." Agreed Kagome, and Miroku sighed.

"Alright then… be careful everybody." He said.

"You can count on us! We'll kill that bastard!" Swore Inuyasha.

"Let's go already." Kagome said. "I hate waiting."

"Yeah. We'll come back until the sunset." Agreed Inuyasha, and the two walked out of the room.

Sango turned to Miroku and said: "I promise we'll all come back healthy. You don't need to worry about us."

"I know you're all good fighters and I really hope you can beat that demon. Still, be careful." Said Miroku and kissed her.

"Goodbye Miroku… let's see in the sunset." Whispered Sango and then left the room. Kirara jumped onto his arms and mewed softly.

"They will be okay, Kirara. Don't be afraid." He said, and the cat demon relaxed a bit.

Meanwhile, the others had taken a boat and were quite near the island. They saw the demon on the mountainside.

"I won't let him easy." Sango mumbled, tightening her grip on her boomerang.

"I think he saw us." Kagome remarked. The demon turned around and growled when he saw them.

"You again! Don't think I'll let you go this time!" He roared.

"Like we would run!" Inuyasha yelled and jumped towards the demon. "It's you who's going to fall down first!"

But the demon was faster. It sidestepped and swept his hand, hitting Inuyasha onto his back. He crushed against the trees again.

"Inuyasha!" Kagome cried out.

"Hiraikotsu!" Sango yelled, throwing her boomerang. She managed to hit the demon onto his shoulder, but it didn't make lot damage.

"Damn!" Cursed Inuyasha, who had stood up. "Now I'm getting angry!"

"You don't have a match against me!" The demon growled and hit the ground with his hand. Kagome tried to shoot it with her bow, but managed only hit its arm.

Inuyasha jumped towards the demon again and hit it onto its back, but it turned around and tried to hit Inuyasha. He managed to jump aside.

"Man! This is harder than I thought." He mumbled.

The battle continued. Sango's boomerang got little damage and Kagome had only two arrows left. Inuyasha still fought with his Tetsusaiga, but didn't hit the demon very much.

Suddenly the demon turned towards the girls and struck his hand onto the ground near them. Sango jumped aside and Inuyasha saved Kagome, taking him further from the demon.

But it hit again, this time towards Sango, who was lying on her stomach.

"Watch out Sango!" Kagome yelled.

Sango didn't have time to get up, so she closed her eyes and waited for the killing blow. But it never reached her.

Suddenly the demon yelled in pain, and when Sango opened her eyes she saw a prayer paper on the demon's arm. When she turned she saw whose prayer paper it was.

"Miroku!"
