Recap: Pulling apart, Bankotsu lifted Ayame's chin and kissed her on the lips. A little shock, Ayame looked at Bankotsu for a few seconds before closing her eyes and enjoying the touch of Bankotsu's lips on hers.
"Bankotsu, I always thought Kouga was the one, but I was wrong… you are, my saviour…" Ayame said in her head…
"Aww, how sweet, but I will have to cut it short today buddies… Winds of blades!" Kagura yelled.
Pulling apart quickly, Bankotsu carried Ayame up in bridal style and jumped out of the way and landed gently on the ground a few feet away from the stronghold.
"Stay here Ayame, I don't want you getting hurt… Banyuusen!" this time, Bankotsu yelled and send a bolt of bright pink light flying towards Kagura.
"How sweet, but not sweet enough to break Naraku's stone heart…" Kagura said in her mind as she douched Bankotsu's attack.
"Kagura! Tell Naraku to back off! Tell him not to harm the demons living here or Ayame or I'll kill him!" Bankotsu shouted.
"Like you can… Whatever, I came to get the jewel shards from wolf girl here. So hand it over or your friends here will die." Kagura said raising her deadly fan up ready to attack.
Just then, an arrow came flying towards Kagura, which hit her left arm making her drop her fan. Turning to the direction of where the arrow came out… There, stood the ever-famous Inuyasha gang.
"Damn you stupid little mutt!" Kagura snapped angrily.
"Feh! You think I wouldn't smell that disgusting smell of that bastard?" Inuyasha said drawing out tensaigan.
"And not to forget that smell of dead body and grave dirt." Inuyasha continue.
"Oh and I see, you brought along that wimpy wolf." Kagura added.
"I DIDN'T bring him along! He WANTED to come along at his OWN WILL! I DIDN'T MAKE him!" Inuyasha yelled.
"I didn't want to make Kagome get in to any danger! Not like this DOGFACE here! BAKA!" Kouga said, saying the word "baka" in Inuyasha's face.
"You ARE the one who WILL get Kagome in trouble not ME! BAKA!" Inuyasha said, saying the word "baka" in Kouga's face too.
"WHAT YOU WANNA FIGHT DOGFACE?" Kouga said angrily.
"OK, BRING IT ON WIMPY WOLF!" Inuyasha yelled angrily back into Kouga's face.
"Both of them just don't know when is the right time to fight do they?" Miroku asked.
"SLAP!"
"Neither do you know when to start groping people's ass!" Sango said as she walked off.
"He just doesn't know when it's serious and when it's not does he?" Shippo asked Kirara.
"Inuyasha… Osuwari…" Kagome said as Inuyasha slammed into the ground.
"Kagome-chan, lets just go and fight the demons ok?" Sango asked.
"Hai Sango-chan." Kagome said.
"Come on Kirara…" Sango said.
With that, the two girls and the big two-tailed cat walked off to fight Kagura.
"Ayame, isn't that Kouga?" Lirin asked.
"Yeah… Thanks Bankotsu." Ayame said as she got off Bankotsu.
"Shit… Naraku is going to kill me for this…" Kagura thought.
From behind, a few poison bees came flying by followed by Naraku.
"Naraku!" Inuyasha exclaimed.
"Another one of his puppets…" Kagura told herself.
"Kagura… Leave now… I'll take the shards myself." Came Naraku's voice.
Scowling a little, Kagura flew off on her feather without looking back.
"Bankotsu o-annekin!" Jakotsu shouted as he came running towards them.
"Bankotsu, Jakotsu… Naraku will kill them for betraying him…" Ayame thought.
"Naraku! You bastard!" Inuyasha shouted as he jumped towards Naraku.
Without even looking at Inuyasha, Naraku flew towards Ayame and Bankotsu.
"Get away from them!" Jakotsu yelled as he attacked Naraku with his snake-bone sword.
Slicing only a few of his tentacles, Naraku used his other two tentacles and stabbed Jakotsu. The tentacles went right through his body and came out on the other side.
"Jakotsu!" Bankotsu shouted as he ran towards Jakotsu.
Jakotsu spitted out blood as Naraku redrew his tentacles. Sango jumped on to Kirara followed by Kagome.
"Hirarikotsu!" Sango yelled as she threw her boomerang towards the puppet.
Hirarikotsu sliced the puppet in to half right after Kagome released her arrow, which hit the puppet's heart. Slowly, the puppet disintegrated and flew in to the air. The rest of the puppet disappeared too. Bankotsu ran forward and helped Jakotsu up.
"You and your brother, will not live to see the sunrise…" came Naraku's voice in Bankotsu's head.
"Jakotsu, how are you feeling?" Bankotsu asked.
"I'm fine o-annekin…" Jakotsu managed to say.
"Jakotsu!" Ayame said as she ran towards the two brothers.
"Ayame, promise me this, if I don't live, I hope you will stay with o-annekin, don't be like that wolf, you are much better than him…" Jakotsu said as he looked at Ayame.
"Don't say that Jakotsu-kun, you will live! I'm sure you will!" Ayame said as tears leaked out of her emerald eyes.
"Just promise me that." Jakotsu said.
"I-I, promise ok? Now, Bankotsu, help Jakotsu in to the stronghold… After all the demons are destroyed, I'll come in straight away." Ayame said.
"But are you sure you can deal with it?" Bankotsu asked.
"I'm I that weak in your eyes? Besides, I have my friends here to help me." Ayame asked.
"Ok, just be careful…" Bankotsu said as he kissed Ayame on the forehead.
"Erm, Lirin, show my friends in to the room that I was supposed to stay in please… Thanks." Ayame asked blushing a little.
"Ok, no problem… Sirs, erm, follow me." Lirin said.
Following Lirin in to the stronghold, Bankotsu turned around and looked at Ayame again. Seeing her smile, Bankotsu went in to the stronghold quickly, knowing that Ayame was with her friends that would help her to the end. Ayame got up and ran towards the gates where the corrupted demons were trying to get in.
"Rasma, are you alright there?" Ayame asked.
"Yeah no problem, where's your friends?" Rasma asked.
"In the stronghold." Ayame said as she sent out a few leaves with razor sharp edges.
Behind them, Kirara landed and Sango and Kagome hopped off.
"Ayame-chan." Sango said as she spotted Ayame among the soldiers.
"Oh hey… You're that demon exterminator traveling with that Inuyasha guy right?" Ayame asked as she continued fighting.
"Yeah… and I suggest you guys move away cause Inuyasha is about to use Kaze no kitzu." Sango warned.
"What? Rasma! Ask your troops to fall back or they'll die." Ayame said as she jumped back.
"Fall back! Fall back!" Rasma shouted.
The troops quickly jumped back as Inuyasha came in front of them and used wind scar. Demon's cries fill the air as they vaporized.
"Feh, small fry…" Inuyasha said.
Without waiting for another second, Ayame ran up the steps to the stronghold and ran straight to her room. Pushing open the doors, Ayame saw Lirin tending to Jakotsu's wound and Bankotsu pacing around the room franticly.
"Bankotsu!" Ayame said as she ran in to his arms.
"Ayame! I was so worried…" Bankotsu said as he caught her in his arms.
"How's Jakotsu?" Ayame asked.
"He's resting, thanks to your friend here." Bankotsu said.
"Lirin! Thank you so much! Thank you." Ayame said as she hugged Lirin.
"No problem… I'll leave you guys now…" Lirin said with a cheeky smile on her face.
Nudging her in the side, Lirin left the room.
"It's late, you take the couch, and I'll sleep on the floor." Bankotsu said.
"But, you might fall sick." Ayame protested.
"I'm a zombie, I can't fall sick." Bankotsu reminded her.
"Oh yeah, I forgot." Ayame said as she lay down on the couch.
Bankotsu blew out the candles and lay down on the floor in the middle of the bed and the couch.
"Ayame?" Bankotsu asked.
"Yes Bankotsu?" Ayame answered.
"How can you stand the smell of dead bodies and grave dirt?" Bankotsu asked.
"I don't know… I guess I just like it… When I was young I always wish that my parents would come back from the dead… so I would always go to their graves and sit there and talk to them… so I guess I don't mind the smell…" Ayame answered.
"Oh…" was all Bankotsu said.
Hearing that, Ayame closed her eyes intending to sleep…
"So, her parents died when she was just a kid… So that's why she could stand the smell of us…" Bankotsu thought.
So Bankotsu started thinking about how things were before they died… They referring to the Shinshitais. So after about half an hour, Bankotsu stood up and walked over to the window and looked out of it.
"Ayame?" Bankotsu asked as he turned to look at her.
"I love you Ayame…" Bankotsu said as he watch Ayame's sleeping form.
In his heart, he knew that he was not going to be able to see her again. Naraku was going to come for him cause he betray him… But no matter what, he didn't regret helping Ayame the only thing he never though would happen was he falling in love with Ayame.
"Even when I die once more, I will never forget you and I will make sure you'll never get hurt… I know Naraku is going to take out the shard from me and I will turn in to a pile of bones… I just want you to be happy… I know you are sleeping right now, but I want you to know this…" Bankotsu said.
But what Bankotsu didn't know was that since Ayame's back was facing him, he couldn't see the silent tears rolling down her face…
"Bankotsu, it's time to die…" Naraku's voice suddenly appeared.
Shocked, Bankotsu looked around the room, and then out of the shadows, Naraku stepped out. Ayame opened up one of her eyes and saw Naraku walking towards Bankotsu.
"Bankotsu!" Ayame said in her mind.
Slowly, removing the three shards from her clothes, she hid them in to the couch. Just as she did that, Bankotsu jumped to the side and took hold of Banryuu.
"It's no use Bankotsu… I brought you to life, I can easily take you back to the gates of hell…" Naraku said as he reached for Jakotsu's shard.
"Leave him alone!" Bankotsu shouted as he sliced the tentacle reaching Jakotsu off.
But just as he expected, the tentacles grew back and attacked Bankotsu.
"Bankotsu!" Ayame yelled as she jumped off the couch to attack Naraku.
Naraku had anticipated that so he reached out and grabbed hold of her neck with his hand.
"Ayame!" Bankotsu yelled as he stared in horror.
"This was what made you betray me… So If I just do this, you will want to die already." Naraku said as he smirked.
"No!" Bankotsu cried out as Naraku threw Ayame towards the wall, which gave way the force, and Ayame fell through and hit the opposite wall.
"Argh…" Ayame groaned.
"Ayame!" Bankotsu cried out but Naraku's tentacles came flying and pulled the shard jewel out of his neck, arms and his chest.
Falling to the ground, Bankotsu looked up at Ayame and he saw her getting up with tears streaming down her face.
"Bankotsu!" Ayame shouted.
"I love you Ayame…" Bankotsu said as his body slowly turned in to bones.
Ayame's heart broke in to a million pieces as she saw Bankotsu turn in to bones.
"Bankotsu!" Ayame screamed as she fell to her knees.
Laughing, Naraku reached for Jakotsu's jewel. And just the same, Jakotsu's body turned in to bones.
"Jakotsu!" Ayame screamed again.
Ayame jumped towards Naraku with her dagger in one hand. Laughing, Naraku disappeared. Ayame fell to the ground crying. Lirin and the others ran in to the room only to see the sun rising, Ayame crying on the floor, bones on the floor and on the bed.
"Ayame!" Lirin shouted as she ran to Ayame to hug her.
"What happened?" Lirin asked the crying female wolf.
"Na-Naraku came and killed them!" Ayame said as she placed her head on Lirin's shoulder and cried even harder.
Hearing this, Lirin grasped and turned towards Rasma. Temasu, Tesuma and Rasma came up to Ayame and tried to comfort her…
A/N Omg! I cried writing the last part! I'm sorry if the characters are OOC… I'm sooooooooooooo sorry! I made Bankotsu die! I'm sorry Bankotsu fans! I'm so sorry! Pls dun throw any more things at me! Pls! I'm sorry…
PREVIEW…
"Ayame, please smile…" Lirin pleaded.
Ayame just continued to stare in to space. The sparkle in her eyes were no longer there…
"Ok, just eat something…" Tesuma said.
"Ayame…" Rasma said.
Suddenly, Ayame burst in to tears… Ayame placed her face into Bankotsu's clothes…
"His smell is still here… I could have saved him! But I was too weak… I made him die…" Ayame said as she stared at Bankotsu's bones.
"I got it! You can put the jewel shards you have in to them!" Temasu suggested.
Just then, the sparkle Ayame used to have before Bankotsu died, appeared again. Dashing to the couch, Ayame pulled out three pure shinning jewels. Rushing over to Bankotsu's side, Ayame placed a jewel shard in to Bankotsu's neck. Slowly, flesh started to appear and finally, Bankotsu got up and looked at Ayame. Her eyes were swollen and her eyes were red shot.
"Bankotsu!" Ayame grasped and ran towards him.
Bankotsu caught her and kissed her gently on the lips. The feeling of Bankotsu touching her was even better than going to heaven and meeting her parents.
"I'll never let you go again… My dear Ayame…" Bankotsu said as he pulled apart and hugged her tightly.
