LUXOR

11:45 PM

As Sesshomaru stared out the window of his suite thinking about his father and how was he going to be able to get him out by beating Naraku, Kagura sat beside him and hugged him. "Something the matter"? She asked. "All I could think about is how to just rid of Naraku and get back all of Las Vegas". Said Sesshomaru without looking at Kagura. As both Sesshomaru and Kagura stared out the window looking over the Luxor with Kagura still hugging onto Sesshomaru, Jaken came in with Rin, Ah and Un with a letter in his hand. "Sesshomaru". Said Jaken. Jaken interrupted Sesshomaru and Kagura as he handed a letter to Sesshomaru. "Who's it from"? Asked Sesshomaru as he looked at the letter. "It was from an unknown source". Said Jaken. Sesshomaru cautiously opened the letter to find that it was from Naraku saying: "I've come to terms that I'll hand over Las Vegas to you and the sake that your father would be free from jail in exchange if we see our former employee for the last time before we leave first. See us after hours when no one is around". Kagura was suspicious about the letter and why Naraku wanted to leave Las Vegas so soon, he had been there for about a year. "I don't know about this". Said Kagura. "I guess he wants to make amends with you so that the both of you can move on". Said Sesshomaru. "Ah and Un can come and back you up, Kagura-sama". Said Rin. "Doesn't said anything about bringing any backup". Said Sesshomaru as he thoroughly read the letter again. "So what should we do, Sesshomaru"? Asked Jaken. "Let's head over there and see if they're for real". Said Sesshomaru.

MGM GRAND

12: 35 A.M.

As Sesshomaru and his crew made their way to the MGM Grand, two bouncers were at the doors to meet up with Sesshomaru and his crew. "The boss has been excepting you". Said one of the bouncers. "But your friends have to stay out here for a while". Said the other bouncer. "Jaken, keep an eye on Rin, Ah and Un". Said Sesshomaru. "Alright". Said Jaken. One of the bouncers escorted Sesshomaru over to the V.I.P. area. While the other bouncer escorted Kagura to Naraku's office. In Naraku's office, Naraku began watching his plan unfurl. "Places everyone". Said Naraku as he instructed Goshinki, Moryomaru, and Hakudoushi downstairs. The bouncer opened the door for Kagura to Naraku's office. "Here you are". Said the bouncer. "Thanks". Said Kagura. Kagura came face to face with the man that had oppressed her for so long, that she couldn't bear to stand him or look him in the eye, Naraku. "My dear Kagura". Said Naraku. "How long has it been since you and I ever saw each other". Naraku continued holding a glass of chardonnay. "Spare me your sentimental antics, Naraku". Said Kagura. "What is this all about"? She asked as she gleamed into his eyes. "A going away party for two". Said Naraku. "What do you mean a going away party for two"? Asked Kagura. "I won't be going away from Las Vegas alone". Said Naraku as he secretly pressed a button that opened the door. In came a young woman with a short black dress on, with short black hair, and black tape wrapped around the ankles and wrists. "You see Kagura, I have real clientele who can get the job done unlike you and, I knew I would see the day where you would betray me again". Said Naraku. "But this time, you won't live to see another day". He added. "Turn around". Said Naraku. Kagura turned around only to get knocked out by a roundhouse kick. "Say hello to my new acquisition, Yura." Said Naraku as he smiled at Kagura who was on the floor face down. Yura picked up Kagura and put her in a rear naked chokehold. "Like I said, I have real clientele that will get the job done and unlike you, I knew I would see the day where you would betray me again but this time, you won't live to see another day". Said Naraku. "Unless". He added. "Unless what". Said Kagura as she was choking. "Unless you lure Sesshomaru into my trap yourself". Said Naraku. "Never". Said Kagura. "Or, I can just kill you". Said Naraku as he pulled out a gun aiming for Kagura. "Let me go". Said Kagura. "You're gonna do it"? Asked Naraku. Kagura had no choice; it was either die at the hands of Naraku or put Sesshomaru out of commission. "Yes". Said Kagura. Yura loosened her hold on Kagura and kicked dust at her face. "Let's go, shall we". Said Naraku as he still held the gun pointed towards Kagura. As Sesshomaru waited for Kagura, the bouncer escorted him to the middle of the MGM Grand with no one around. "Later". Said the bouncer as he headed out to the door. Sesshomaru was alone, waiting for Kagura. Then out of the darkness came Kagura. "Kagura, did Naraku said that he's truly leaving"? Asked Sesshomaru. Kagura didn't respond. "Kagura, did you hear me"? Asked Sesshomaru. "No, but you are". Said a voice in the darkness. Sesshomaru looked everywhere to see who said that until he turned around and saw Goshinki. "What's the matter, you look like you've seen a ghost. "Or how about two". Said Moryomaru as he emerged from the darkness. "Make that three". Said Hakudoushi. "Kagura what is the meaning of this"? Asked Sesshomaru. Kagura still wouldn't speak because Naraku was well hidden behind her in the darkness holding a gun to her head. Sesshomaru had no choice but to fight. Goshinki, Hakudoushi, and Moryomaru came charging at Sesshomaru. Sesshomaru went for Hakudoushi as he tripped him knocking him into Moryomaru. Goshinki caught Sesshomaru with a haymaker sending him flying near the feet of Kagura. "Kagura, do something". Said Sesshomaru. Kagura couldn't do anything. Then he heard a familiar laugh; it was Naraku. Sesshomaru was then being dragged by his feet by Moryomaru. Moryomaru then had Sesshomaru in a bear hug. Sesshomaru clawed the eyes of Moryomaru, as he broke free of the bearhug. Sesshomaru then roundhouse kicked Moryomaru. Sesshomaru then turned around and saw Goshinki's fist as he deliver a haymaker to Sesshomaru's nose. Kagura just looked on as if she wanted to help but couldn't because of Naraku. Goshinki and Hakudoushi then begin stomping away on Sesshomaru. Goshinki then held Sesshomaru as Hakudoushi was about to deliver his own haymaker but Sesshomaru broke free of Goshinki's grasp as Hakudoushi mistakenly punches Goshinki. Sesshomaru then caught Hakudoushi from behind with a sidekick that sent Hakudoushi flying into Goshinki. Kagura could only smile as a sign of her approval of Sesshomaru fighting off Naraku's minions. With Hakudoushi and Moryomaru knocked out, Goshinki was the last one left for Sesshomaru to fight. Goshinki came with a wild haymaker but Sesshomaru moved out of the way. Sesshomaru then caught Goshinki with a haymaker of his own sending Goshinki flying behind the bar as he crashed into the liquor bottles and display racks. "Impressive". Said Naraku behind the darkness. "Show yourself, Naraku". Said Sesshomaru. "I would but I wouldn't have time to fight you". Said Naraku. "But I'll have someone else do that for me". Naraku added. Naraku shoved Kagura into Sesshomaru, as they both looked into each other's eyes "You bastard". Said Sesshomaru. "Look out". Said Kagura. Sesshomaru turned around only to get knocked in the head with a steel pipe by Yura. "Say hello to my new acquisition". Said Naraku as he emerged from the darkness holding his gun. "Take him out, now". Said Naraku as he handed the gun to Kagura. Kagura didn't want to kill Sesshomaru but she didn't want to die herself. Kagura steadied herself as she held the gun at Sesshomaru who was bleeding from the nose and even his head. "So this is what it comes down to, Kagura"? Asked Sesshomaru. Tears then begin to swell in Kagura's eyes as she looked at Sesshomaru. Kagura smiled and she took Naraku's gun and, pistol-whipped Yura to the floor. Naraku then tackled Kagura and took the gun from her. "Stupid move". Said Naraku. "It's a petty your life will come to an melancholic end". Said Naraku. "Oh you don't". Said a voice. "Who's there"? Asked Naraku. "IRON REAVER SOUL STEALER"! Yelled Inuyasha as he knocked the gun out of Naraku's hand. Soon Sango, Miroku, Shippo, Kagome, and Kirara came. "Inuyasha, what are you doing here"? Asked Sesshomaru. "Don't ask me, ask Jaken". Said Inuyasha. "He's getting away". Said Miroku as he pointed at Naraku. "I'll get him again". Said Sesshomaru. "You're bleeding". Said Kagura. "Why didn't you help me"? Asked Sesshomaru. "It was a trick to lure us in so he could knock both us out of the way, if it weren't for me pistol-whipping Yura, or even trying to help you for that matter we would've been killed". Said Kagura. "But I'm glad you're not dead". Said Kagura as tears begin to swell up in her eyes. "Don't cry, Kagura". Said Sesshomaru. "Inuyasha". Said Sesshomaru. "Get that bastard Naraku for me, for us, for our father's sake". Said Sesshomaru. "I will, Sesshomaru". Said Inuyasha as he grasped the hand of his brother as he picked him up and carried him out of the MGM Grand with Moryomaru, Hakudoushi, Goshinki, and Yura still knocked out.
