Chapter 11

Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha.

Sorry about my spelling errors or wrong usage of grammars as I type faster when I had ideas coming in.

Sango sat at a corner, remembering what Kagura told her. The fact that Kikyo was coming after her. Why Kikyo hated me so much that she wants my life? Sango shook away the thought and began to plan their escape. If only I knew what their plan is going to be. Sango sighed. She looked around the dungeon and prayed for Kagome's safety. They had been here for 1 day and 1 night and Inuyasha had not arrived yet.

Stupid me. How can I expect others to save me? Sango mentally cursed her as Shippo walked over to her. "Sango, don't worry too much. Inuyasha and Kagome nee-san will be here very soon." Shippo's words comforted her. Sango stroked Shippo's hair and look out of the window. It was a new moon tonight. It is a very beautiful sight. Wait a minute… new moon? Sango immediately panicked and called out to Miroku who was sleeping, again. "Miroku, it's new moon tonight!" Sango yelled at him. Miroku shifted slightly and said, "So?" He opened his eyes suddenly and continued to say, "New moon? Which means Inuyasha becomes human tonight?" Sango nodded and then said, "I really hope that nothing will happen to them." Miroku brought Sango into his arms and said, "Don't worry. Naraku won't be able to find them." Sango managed to find comfort in Miroku's arm when she felt something against her thigh. Sango growled and shouted in his ear, "I say for the last and final time. Don't touch me there!" After speaking, she immediately whammed her hand across his face. Shippo looked at the handprint. I should be getting used to this like Kagome saying Osuwari to Inuyasha. He shook his head and talked to Miroku, "It's time to grow up." Miroku sniffed.

Kouga was laughing hardly as he saw Inuyasha's human form. Inuyasha growled at Kouga but somehow it did not sound like one.

"Shut up Kouga!" He could not tolerate anymore. Kagome shushed Inuyasha as she did not want to attract attention form any youkai to attack them, especially when Inuyasha was in human form. "What's that for?" He turned his attention to Kagome. "Look, I have your interests at heart. We could not afford to let Naraku knows that you are in human form tonight and cannot fight." Kagome said.

"No worries Kagome." Kouga said proudly, "I will protect you." "Eh, thank you." Kagome said awkwardly. Technically, she preferred Inuyasha to save her. She shook away the thought. "I wish that morning will arrive sooner so I can blast Naraku off his feet." Inuyasha said. Kirara mewed as Kagome stroked her fur. "We will get Sango back, that's for sure." Kagome said.

She looked around and realized that Kikyo was missing again. "Hey, has anyone seen Kikyo?" She asked. The response was no. "I don't know what she was up to again." Inuyasha said as he lean back against the side of the cave. Kagome hugged Kirara and hoped that Kikyo would leave them alone.

XXXX

"Kagura, you are not afraid of betraying Naraku?" Kanna said to Kagura. Kagura shook her head and continued saying, "I know that they will kill Naraku someday." With that, she took off. Kanna stared after her, Kagura, you will be freed one day, and walked away.

Kagura thought as she made her way towards the dungeon. Will they be able to fight off Naraku? She sighed as she entered the prison cell.

XXXX

Sango heard the sound of the door chains rattling and knew that Kagura was coming. "Kagura, why are you here?"

"I am here to tell you that Naraku will be killing you soon." Sango's face turned pale and lowered her head.

Kagura continued, "Do not worry much. I will not let you die so easily." Sango looked up with a hopeful expression on her face. "I cannot stop the pending fight which is going to happen but I could help to turn things to your advantage."

"How?" Miroku spoke up. "Inuyasha will save you from Naraku," Kagura said before leaving. Sango looked at her leaving and tears were welling up in her eyes. She shivered at the thought of being killed. Miroku hugged her and Shippo was sitting by her side. She felt blessed to have her loved ones with her. She closed her eyes and prayed that this will be over soon.

XXXX

The next morning arrived quickly and Inuyasha was back in his inu hanyou form. "Ah. It felt so good to be back." Inuyasha stretched and said. Kouga snorted and said, "I prefer you in your human form." Inuyasha got angry suddenly and said to Kouga, "It's payback time. You laughed at me yesterday and now it is time to die." Inuyasha used his claws and aimed at Kouga. Kouga managed to dodge but Inuyasha soon attacked.

Kagome and Kirara were back from freshening up themselves. They saw Inuyasha with his claws, aiming at Kouga. Kagome got frightened and said, "Osuwari!" Just as Inuyasha was in mid air aiming down at Kouga, his rosary felt heavy suddenly and said, "Oh no." before plunging down towards the ground.

Kagome walked to Inuyasha side and knelt down. "Are you ok?" She asked, as she knew that it could hurt a lot plunging down from mid air. Inuyasha finally could peel off his face from the ground and grumbled. Kouga was laughing heartily and Inuyasha decided to ignore him, as it does not worth it to get another Osuwari. "Well, can we leave now?" Kagome asked. "Of course we could." Kouga grabbed Kagome and sat on Kirara and took off when Inuyasha still recovering from the Osuwari.

"Kouga!" Inuyasha screamed and quickly stood up and ran after them. "Kouga, I don't think it is a good idea to leave Inuyasha there." Kagome said as she looked down trying to locate Inuyasha. "Ah. It is ok." Kouga replied. Kagome sighed and just cannot figure out what's wrong with them.

XXXX

Kikyo entered Naraku's chamber and reported, "Inuyasha is coming." Naraku smiled and clenched his fist thinking on how to deal with Inuyasha. "Just let him arrive and I will deal with him. Don't you want him to accompany you to hell?" Kikyo widened her eyes and smiled. "I will get everything ready." She said before leaving.

XXXX

Inuyasha finally managed with Kouga, Kagome and Kirara as they approached Naraku's castle. "Naraku's stinky scent!" Inuyasha yelled as he ran faster. "Faster Kirara!" Kagome said. As they approached nearer, a colony of demons shot out from the castle and Inuyasha tried to fight off them. Kouga jumped from Kirara and fought them too. Kagome took out her arrow to shoot but was too late. A demon knocked her off Kirara.

"Inuyasha!" She yelled as she fell off Kirara. "Kagome!" Inuyasha sprang and caught Kagome when she fell.

"Arigato! Inuyasha" She said before fighting the demons off.

The dark evil aura filled the sky.

Soon, Naraku appeared with Sango, Miroku and Shippo. "Naraku! Hand over Sango, Miroku and Shippo."

Naraku smiled and said, "I told you I will get my revenge soon."

"Do you think I care about your stupid revenge thing?" Inuyasha screamed as he took out his Tetsusaiga and swung it down hard. Naraku sent out a colony of demons to protect him.

XXXX

Kagura watched from afar and saw the fight. Inuyasha is just plain useless. She thought. She left and went back to the castle.

When she reached there, Kanna asked her, "How's the fight going?" "Inuyasha is fighting with Naraku." Kanna nodded and said that Kikyo ran away. Kagura nodded as she went to the room which Sango's and Miroku's weapons were. After taking the Hiraikotsu and the staff, she headed back to the scene.

XXXX

Wham! Inuyasha was hit down by Naraku's sudden attack while he was fighting the demons.

"Your skill has not improved since the last time I battled with you hanyou." Naraku teased Inuyasha.

Inuyasha looked up and screamed, "Don't call me hanyou!" He wielded the Tetsusaiga at Naraku again and screamed, "Kaze no Kizu!" The attack somehow was not effective as Naraku managed to create a barrier surrounding him.

"What?" Inuyasha was shocked. With hat, he was thrown backwards and landed on the ground. Kagome saw Inuyasha falling but she could help him, as she was busy with the attacking demons. She managed to shoot some down with the purifying arrow she had. She ran to Inuyasha the instant she was finished with her demons.

"Back off, Kagome!" Inuyasha shouted. He did not want to allow Naraku injured Kagome. Kagome froze in her track, not knowing what to do now. Just when a demon was about to attack and she knew that she was dead, Kouga came and carried her away to a nearby cave.

"Stay here Kagome." He ordered. He saw Ginta and Hakkaku running towards him.

"Are you alright?" Ginta asked anxiously.

"I am ok. Take care of her. If anything went wrong, I will look for you two. Get it?" Kouga ordered. Ginta and Hakkaku could only nod as they took care of Kagome. Kagome sighed and shook her head. How can they protect me when they weren't sure themselves? Kagome thought.

XXXX

Kagura was flying on her feather with Sango's Hiraikotsu and Miroku's staff. She hoped that she was not too late. Just when she arrived, she found that Naraku had abandoned them while he fought Inuyasha.

She flicked her fan and sent wind blades cutting through the chains of the prisoners.

Sango felt that her wrists were not so tight feeling as before. She heard a rattling sound and she was freed.

"What happened?" Miroku said as he rubbed his wrists.

"Sango look!" Shippo yelled pointing in the direction of where the Hiraikotsu and the staff were.

"Arigato Kagura." Sango muttered under her breath and continued, "Come on Miroku." Sango ran and picked up her Hiraikotsu while Miroku picked up his staff.

"Fight well." Kagura thought as she flew away.

XXXX

Inuyasha was slammed down onto the floor again when getting hit by Naraku's barrier. Naraku came out of his barrier and began to shot one of his tentacles towards Inuyasha.

Inuyasha lay on the floor panting, as he was tired of fighting Naraku and getting hit by him every time he advanced. He widened his eyes when Naraku's tentacles shot down from nowhere.

Just then, Sango's Hiraikotsu came slicing past Naraku's tentacles. Naraku got a shock. He was puzzled why a Hiraikotsu suddenly flew past. He immediately turned to where he left his prisoners. They were missing. He silently cursed himself and decided to back away as he was out-numbered.

"Ha! Naraku you baka. You think you can keep me tied up for long?" Sango said.

"Sango!" Inuyasha said. He was relieved, as his friend was still alive. "Inuyasha, are you alright?" Miroku came asking, followed by Shippo. "Feh. I am no weakling." Inuyasha said. Shippo narrowed his eyes and said, "Still acting cool." Inuyasha heard what Shippo said and retorted back, "What did you say?" They got into a fight somehow.

Kagome looked out and saw Sango. She felt happy all of a sudden. However, as she diverted her attention to Inuyasha as she worried about his injuries. She saw him fighting with Shippo. "He never changed does he?" Kagome said, sensing that Ginta and Hakkaku were looking at Inuyasha too. They both nodded. She sighed.

XXXX

"Naraku, it's time to settle this once and for all." Miroku said to Naraku.

Naraku looked down and said, "I have no time for you guys anymore." With that he took away.

"Stop!" They yelled.

"Kirara!" Sango yelled as she saw Kirara nearby. Kirara stop fighting with the demons and went to Sango's side.

"Sango! Please don't chase anymore!" Kagome yelled running out of the cave, Ginta and Hakkaku followed close by.

Sango turned Kirara back to the ground and questioned Kagome about it.

"It is useless to spend time on that worthless fellow." Kagome said and Sango felt the same way.

Kagome ran to Inuyasha who was still fighting with Shippo. He still have tons of energy left doesn't him? Kagome thought. She walked over to him and said, "Oh my Inuyasha. You are still energetic."

"Of course." He replied pulling Shippo's ears.

"How about an…" Kagome said,

Inuyasha stopped and thought, oh no. Before he could stop Kagome.

"Inuyasha, Osuwari!"

Shippo managed to get out before Inuyasha pulled him to the ground with him.

"What's that for?" Inuyasha screamed. Kagome picked up Shippo and shrugged.

Sango got off Kirara and started laughing with Miroku.

"Serve you right Inuyasha!" Sango said.

When the spell had worn off, Kagome stretched her hand to help him up and they planned what to do next.

XXXX

Kikyo stood at a side and watched the whole fight.

"Naraku failed me." With that, she walked away. Planning another evil scheme again.
