I found myself at the well once again. It was getting darker and colder, I figured my best bet was to back to the hut, even though Inuyasha was there. I wasn't ready to go home, I didn't know what my mother would think if she saw me like this. 'She would play with your ears just like she did when she first met Inuyasha...' I was walking back when a scent caught my nose. I've never smelled it before and I didn't have Inuyasha or Koga to tell what it was either. I soon found out, it was a soul collector, but not just anyone's, Kikyou's. I followed the smell knowing that Inuyasha wouldn't be far behind, the smell sooner began clearer, it was dirt and potting soil. It lend me a to clearing where the sacred tree was, and where she was standing. I hid behind a tree, but with no success.

"I know you are there, come now." so I did. "Kagome. Your appearance had attired."

"Yea long story. What are you doing here?" 'And where was Inuyasha? He should've been here by now...'

"Collecting my souls as I do every night. What are you doing here?"

"Well-" I started not wanting to mention Inuyasha "I got lost and well-"

"Not here at this spot, but here in this world."

"Well to be honest I really don't know anymore. I know why I want to be here, but I'm not sure why I'm still here. I had told myself that I would stay by Inuyasha's side for as long as I live. I had also decided that my feelings for him were that of my own and no one else's, but with recent events taken place-"

"He's different now. You know that."

"Who's different" asking like I didn't know already, "Inuyasha?"

"You've changed him. He was once a cold-hearted person, but now..." Not wanting to talk more about Inuyasha with Kikyou,

"I should go..." turning to leave.

"He loves you, never forget." with a quick turn she was gone. That made me sick, to heard that from Kikyou of all people! Still, maybe she was right.

I had finally made it to the hut by nightfall. I was hesitant to go in, but I did anyway. I found a sleeping Inuyasha with a sleeping Shippo in his arms, it was so cute. I found a place against the wall, laid down and started to drift to sleep,

"Hey your back..."

"Yea..." I said sitting up.

"Look Kagome-"

"Shh you'll wake Shippo."

"Sorry. Look I just wanted to say-"

"I know...me too. Can we forget that happened?" hugging my knees

"We can... but it did.."

Changing the subject, "Where's Sango and Miroku?"

"Well I have some bad news and some good news..."

"Bad news."

"Kaede got word that tomorrow at around noon Naraku is gonna attack."

'Kikyou' "Then what's the good news?"

"They went to get more help, for the battle."

"Oh well that is good." I wanted to say something but I just couldn't. I opened my mouth to speak but didn't. "Inuyasha?" was all I could muster

"Yea?"

"Nothing. Good Night."

"Yea Night Kagome."

We both slowly drifted to sleep.

_-oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO oOoOoOoOo-_

I woke up to the sound of whisper and a loud smack, that told me Miroku and Sango were back. I popped an eye opened and looked around, Shippo was still sleep and so was Kagome, her back was towards me. Sango and the first to walk in,

"Good Morning Inuyasha. Are you okay?" she whisperer with concern.

"Yea I'm fine. Did you find some people to help?"

"Yea but-" she was interrupted by a stirring Kagome and Shippo.

"Kagome you're back." he shouted hopping out my lap and into hers. "Did you bring something from your time?" she looked at him then at me. She gave me a 'thanks for lying' look,

"Sorry Shippo not this time, but maybe next time." He gave her a hug and left the hut. Sango was making breakfast and Kagome got up and started stretching, I watched in amazement, the way she moved her arms around made me think she was teasing me...and I liked it. Miroku soon came in, with a big red slap mark on his face, with some news.

"Oh good morning Kagome when did you come back?"

"Late last night...I uh heard about Naraku...and..."

"Ah yes..." taking a seat next to Sango. "It seems that this is battle we've been waiting for..."

"So what do we do?" Kagome asked

"Well we and the others have decided to meet in front the castle just before the sun reaches it's peek."

"So this is it..." All eyes were on Shippo "Let's make a promise.." He reached his hand in middle "...to keep fighting no matter what..."

"To do the best we can..." Miroku added putting his hand down.

"To always help each other.." Sango added.

"To always be friends...no matter what." Kagome added. With that last statement she looked at me as to give me a clue.

_-oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo-_

We all met in front of the castle high in the mountains, as agreed. There was a giant barrier around it, the castle itself was creepy enough by itself, it was a big temple with a 'I'm haunted' look to it. We landed in front, Kagome with me and trio with Kilala, I started to get a bad feeling in the pit of my stomach, "Inuyasha look!" I turned to see what Kagome was talking about. Sesshomaru and his little frog thingy, Jakken, were descending down from the air on what looked like a fluffy cloud. I realized that 's what Sango was trying to tell me earlier

"What the hell are you doing here?" I asked

"It seems that I was invited little brother. Your friends..." turning around and pointing to the trio. "...Insisted that this is will be the end of Naraku.

"Inuyasha I can sense jewel shards coming..." I turned just in time to see Koga and his pack coming out the woods. He ran straight over to Kagome "Hey Kags. Missed me?"

"Like a hernia..." I spat. He shot me a death glare and gave him one back.

"Oh you still alive, dog fat? I would've been sure that Kagome burned your ass to a crisp by now." I showed Koga my middle finger, he wasn't too sure what exactly I was doing, but Kagome did, seeing that I learned that technique from her world."So this is it my love, the final battle. I will finally avenge my comrades and kill Naraku so that we can finally be together." he said kissing her hands

I turned my head around so I couldn't see this, instead I glared at the trio

(sweat drop) "I tried to tell you earlier Inuyasha." Sango said. (clears throat) Okay everyone, you all know the plan?"

There was a group "Yea!" and they started for castle barrier. "Sango what the plan?" Kagome asked as she caught up to her and Kilala.

"First Koga and his men are to attack first, then Sesshomaru, then it's our turn."

"Got it! So let's get started already!" I said. I took the front. I use my Tetsusaiga to break the barrier, first up was Koga's group. They stormed inside followed by Sesshomaru and my people, I smelled something before I went in, it was Kikyou, and she coming out the woods entrance. "What are you doing here?" I asked her

"I've come to help...that's all." She continued to walk inside followed by me. Walking insides I saw Kagome look at me with sad in her eyes.

"Kagome I-"

"Let's go kill this sucker Inuyasha..." she grabbed my hands we continued to walk in.

(A/N: Warning: I'm not very good at telling actiony sorta stuff so please bear with me.)

The whole place was creepy and had the sent of death and Naraku all over it, we found ourselves in his court yard with his castle in the far back "Naraku! SHOW YOURSELF!" I shouted. Big Mistake. Way in the front at the castle's porch was the bastard. Naraku in that stupid looking monkey suit.

"Inuyasha...do you wish to battle me?"

"What do you think stupid!" I ready Tetsusaiga

"I see you have brought friends...and jewel shards."

"Shut up and fight!"

"As you wish..." He took one hands out from underneath his cloak and ripped it off. What came out was the worst thing I've ever seen. It was Naraku from head to bellybutton, but the rest of him were tentacles, thousands upon thousands. His arms were tentacles too, but they looked more like octopus legs. Not only that but he grew about 90ft. in the air and while he was growing he destroyed his castle. "Now let's get it on!"

Everyone charged, started with Koga's group as planned. They first attack his 'legs' but with no progress they all got swatted into the trees of the woods. Koga myself made it through and was slashing around with his sword. As his pack started to die down, Sesshomaru made his appearance. Using his Tedsusaiga to slash here and there, bringing back Koga's men. Shippo and Jakken used his staff to burn away the left overs so they wouldn't grow back. More of Koga's members got up and continued the fight, but were quickly killed again when Naraku used his 'arms' to sweep the field.

"Aah You think you can defeat me? You little whelps!" he shouted I knew soon enough it was up to my team to try.

"Okay you guys ready?" I turned to see them all nodding. I looked at Kagome; she looked more serious then anybody, that or worried. I turned back around to catch the last of Koga's men fall backwards into the forest. "Okay NOW!" Then we charged, Miroku and Shippo used sutras and magic that burnt Naraku's skin, winced in pain he used his staff to cut threw a few tentacles here and there. Sango threw her Hiraikotsu. It tore through the skin of his stomach, tentacles when she threw it again. Kagome and Kikyou were on arrow duty, striking, arms, legs and chest. He looked like Swiss cheese, then it was my turn. I used the wind scar first slashing his whole body apart, but not enough to kill him. He just regenerated himself and some of him was back to normal, although he was missing some stuff here and there.

"I don't get it why isn't he dead yet?" I asked

"Well duh Inuyasha isn't it obvious? The jewel, he's got a big chunk of it and it's feeding him power." Kagome spat

"YOU FOOLS! DO YOU THINK YOU CAN DEFEAT ME THE GREAT NARAKU!"

"There's nothing great about you!"

"Inuyasha the jewel it's in his chest...there where his heart should be!" Kagome shouted

"You little wench. How dare you!" He lunged at Kagome who easily dodged it and while airborne shot a fiery arrow at his hand. He screamed in pain.

Landing, "Inuyasha I have an idea...can you keep him busy?"

"Sure..." slicing another tentacle, "But what are you gonna do?" She winked at me and ran off.
