Kagome, Inu-Yasha and Sesshomaru now had at least part of a demon's soul within each of them. Kagome was shocked by the new senses, especially the sense of smell. There were seven different scents each coming from another being. Suddenly, Kagome's hand flew up to her nose, covering it. " What's wrong?" sneered Inu-Yasha. "Too many smells for a human mind to handle?" Then Inu-Yasha covered his nose as well. Sesshomaru's hand was already covering his nose.
" That smell..." said Kagome faintly. "It's like decay and rot and evil and..."'
"I know that smell." said Inu-Yasha. " It is not one that I want to smell right now. It's that bitch, Naraku." Kagome's eyes went wide. The three of them (Inu- Yasha, Kagome and Sesshomaru) stood up and went to the door. Kagome picked up her bow. Inu-Yasha turned around.
"You won't be needing that anymore. You've got to use your claws. And if I'm right, it'll do more than just make people bleed."
Kagome looked down at her hands. "Claws. I'd forgotten about them." she muttered under her breath. She saw that the base of her nail was a little opening. Through the opening a light pink fluid came out and covered her claws. She went and grabbed Sesshomaru's hand. "What?" asked Sesshomaru. Kagome found the same thing on the lord's had as well. "Venom." she breathed.
Just then, she thought that she saw that familiar monkey suited figure coming towards them. "I am sick and tired of that fucking bastard showing up whenever we don't want him around." she said.
"Come on!" Inu-Yasha yelled. He flew away from the village. Sesshomaru followed. Kagome stood there. "Don't just stand there!" Shippo screamed. "Go with them!"
"Oh. Right." Kagome followed the two of them.
She found both of them in the woods. They were gearing up for a fight. Just as she landed, Naraku spotted her. "Well well. Isn't it the young miko. I'll destroy you first."
He attacked. In the second she had left, Kagome copied one of the moves that she had seen Inu-Yasha use so many times. She ran forward, her fingers tense. "Bastard." She dug her claws into Naraku. His baboon pelt fell off. Because her soul was originally pure, the power that it stored was released when her soul twisted. The amount of power that hit Naraku drove him back. "What in the seven hells..."
Kagome's hand was smeared with blood. "Ewwww... gross."
"Get used to it, Kagome. If you're going to survive like that, you can't let a little blood scare you." retorted Inu-Yasha.
"What did you so with the girl?" Naraku hissed, looking at Inu-Yasha and Sesshomaru.
"Why do you care?" came Sesshomaru's soft voice. "What we did with the girl is our business, not yours." He drew Tokijin (the sword in book 17).
"Enough talk. You're going down!" Inu-Yasha said.
Inu-Yasha attacked. He used the Scar of the Wind (Cutting Wind, etc.). To his surprise, it didn't work. He saw\smelled that the winds were shifting. (Oh, and it didn't work because there was no human at that moment to protect, unless Kagome's human blood counts.)
Just then, Kagome screamed "Kagura!"
Kagura was standing in the trees on one side of the battle.
"I grow bored." Naraku said. "Time to end this."
The earth started melting (like in book 8 of the English manga). Inu-Yasha, Sesshomaru and Kagome were forced back.
"You cannot withstand the power of my mystic aura. I will kill you all." Naraku's voice surrounded them.
"If only I had my bow." Kagome thought. "Then I could kill this bitch." Out of the corner of her eye, she saw a bow, and quiver. Naraku's aura was closing in around her. As fast as she could, (which was a lot faster now) she ran to the bow. As soon as she was out of the aura, it closed, trapping Inu-Yasha and Sesshomaru inside. Kagome remembered all the times that she had used her power in its natural form. She fitted an arrow into the bowstring. She called up all the power she could. She fired. The arrow cut through the aura, landing in Naraku's chest. Kagome fell. Naraku fled.
"Kagome!" Inu-Yasha came running towards her. Then, Sango and the rest came towards them. "Kagome!" Shippo came running. "Is she alright?"
"I don't know."
"What happened here?" asked Sango.
"Naraku turned up. He seemed angry at what we did to Kagome. Then he caught me and Sesshomaru in his evil aura. Kagome shot one of her purifying arrows, and that's when you guys showed up."
"But how could she? I didn't think that demons could be "pure"." Miroku replied.
Keade joined them. "She could shoot an arrow of the sort because her soul was originally pure."
