Naraku had been defeated, Kikyou's sole put to rest, Kohaku's life saved by Sesshomaru's Tensaiga (though after some major pleading from Rin's side). All was peaceful in Feudal Era. Under the great Goshinboku tree stood the hanyou and miko.
"Here, Inuyasha," said Kagome passing him the Shikon jewel. "You worked so hard to get it, sacrificed so much… Now you can finally make your dream of becoming a full-fledged demon come true."
"Keh, you keep it."
"But…"
"Didn't you tell me, you like me the way I am?"
"Of course, but…"
"I don't need the stupid rock then. I can beat any full youkai's ass any day!" hanyou stated with a cocky grin.
"Inuyasha…" Kagome's voce was filled with tenderness.
"Keh, just make a damn wish already!"
"I wish… I wish for everybody, who battled against Naraku to be happy."
A light emerged from the Shikon jewel. Soon it became so bright that the two friends had to cover their eyes. When the glowing went down they saw that miko now held a strangely-shaped object.
"What the hell is this?" asked Inuyasha with genuine curiosity.
"I think it is called the hookah."
A. n.: Since I've been asked that question twice, hookah is also known as the water-pipe, narghile and kalian - a smoking device for light drugs.
