Author's note: To sum it all up, Naraku dies by getting hit by everyone's attack (at once) while he was trying to hold himself when he and Iyama were shooting their powerful rays-blast things at each other. Now let's begin.

Chapter 15: Hint-Hint
Iyama flew down and landed next to Kouga's bloody body. She felt for his pulse, it was very faint. She placed her hands on his chest, and then they (the hands) glowed a bright green color. Kouga's body began to glow brightly, then faded as Iyama fell unconscious on the ground.
The group started to run towards them but halted when two angelical beings appeared in front of them. They looked somewhat like Iyama so they figured that they were her parents. Iyama's mother knelt down to her daughter's body and placed her hand on her forehead. It started to glow a light pink then it faded away. She then stood up and they turned towards the group.
"Take care of her." Iyama's father said. Then they disappeared.
---------------------------------------OvO-----------------------------------
Iyama opened her eyes to the bright rays of the morning sun. When she got up, she was immediately tackled down by three beings, no make that four. Kagome, Shippo, Rin, and Kouga. She was laughing and gagging at the same time (which is very hard to do). Everyone smiled at the sight, except Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru. Inuyasha was laughing his head off while Sesshy smirked.
"Okay, that's enough you two. Can't you see you see she can't breathe?" Sango stated. It was true; Iyama had swirly eyes (you know, like Kenshin does). They finally let go and Iyama fell backwards.
"Are you okay, Iyama-san?" Rin asked. They found out when they saw a snot bubble and drool dribbling down the side of her mouth.
"See what you've done?" Kagome laughed.
------------------------------------------JJ------------------------------------------
It was late at night. Sesshoumaru and Rin (with Jaken) had left, to Rin's demise, along with food to last them four months. Iyama was awake (as you can tell by the food thingy) and was sitting around the fire with the others. Inuyasha was "wolfing" down a lot of ramen (and I mean a lot), Kagome was talking to Sango who seemed a little…angry, Miroku was unconscious, Shippo was napping, and Kouga was slowly scooting himself towards Iyama (she didn't see this). When Kouga was about a foot away, Iyama got up. Kagome halted her conversation and looked at her.
"It's okay, I'll be right back." Iyama said before she asked.
When she was gone for about twenty seconds, Kouga decided to follow. He crept quietly but quickly and found her sitting on a low branch, gazing at the moon (they aren't very far from the camp, just far enough). He leapt and sat besides her. He was a little surprised that she wasn't startled.
"Mind if I sit down?" he asked, looking at her in affection. The moons rays made her skin radiant and made her eyes sparkle, making her more beautiful.
"Not at all." She replied.
"Why the long face, beautiful?" he asked.
She blushed, which was something he hadn't expected (and neither did I).
"If I had never come to (Feudal) Japan, everyone wouldn't have been in so much danger, and you wouldn't have almost died." She said softly.
He laughed, but nicely because he was laughing with her not at her.
"If you hadn't come everyone would have still been in danger, didn't you see the others?" he asked.
He was right. Miroku had stopped wearing his beads around his hand, Sango had seem happier for some reason that she wasn't so sure of, Shippo laughed more, Kagome was extra happy but sad at the same time, Inuyasha looked better but just a bit disappointed. She figured it was because they had thought she was going to die because she had been out for a week.
"Plus, you saved me, right?" he asked, tease politely.
She looked away; she did bring him back.
"I don't know what I would have done if you had died." She whispered, blushing fiercely.
"But I thought you hated me?" he continued to tease, this time moving a little closer to her.
"I never did." She mumbled, still not looking at him.
"I would have given my life to protect you than to have seen you get taken away by Naraku." He whispered into her ear. Her eyes widened in surprise. She turned around and saw him smiling down at her. He lifted her chin up and kissed her. She tensed at first, but then she melted into it, and kissed him back. He slowly pulled away and wrapped her in his arms.

AN: I am EXTREMELY sorry for not updating. When I was finishing this up the modem was working and when I was trying to get to FanFiction, it just stopped. It's a really big coincidence that when my dad finds me up at two in the morning, when I wake up later on the modem doesn't work. Anyway, I just want to say, next chapter will be the Last Chapter! I know, it sucks. However, it gives me time to go back to my other story.
