Destiny Meets Death

Third Person POV

The next day everyone sat outside the hut waiting for the arrival of Koga of the demon wolf tribe. Inuyasha was getting impatient and Kagome was trying to get him to calm down. Finally Koga showed up. " Damn it Koga! What took you so long?"

" Shut up, mutt. I can come when I want to."

" Well Naraku is taking over Japan and you want to take your time. Your stupider than I thought."

" Well ya wanna make something of it!" The wolf youkai and Hanyou argued until Kagome broke them apart.

She sighed and glared at the two of them. " Would you two grow up? Geez, your worst than children. We need to come up with a plan to get Sesshoumaru and Inuyasha to Mt. Haki without Naraku noticing."

Sesshoumaru looked to the sky and ignored the priestess. Inuyasha and Koga were still arguing. Sango slapped Miroku for groping her. Kohaku, Shippo, and Kagome sighed.

" Kagome this isn't working. We need a way for Koga, Inuyasha, and Sesshoumaru to get along." Sango said to Kagome.

" Inuyasha sit!" Inuyasha crashed to the floor. Koga laughed and Sesshoumaru smirked.

" Kagome! What the hell was that for!"

" You three are being ridiculous. We need to kill Naraku, not each other."

Sango and Miroku watched as the two dog youkai and wolf youkai calmed down a bit. Sesshoumaru looked at Inuyasha and Koga and sighed.

" Fine. But once Naraku is dead, all three of us will find out whose stronger. So what's the plan?"

Sango pet Kirara. " We don't have a plan yet. We need to think of one."

" We could just go to Mt. Haki and if Naraku tries to stop us, Miroku can suck him in the Wind tunnel. It's simple."

Sesshoumaru growled. " That's a death wish, Inuyasha. Besides the monk could get poisoned if he sucked Naraku into the Wind tunnel. Remember the wasps?"

" Well I'm out ideas."

Kagome bit her lip. This was going to be dangerous because Naraku got a lot stronger. " Well we could have a distraction. Something to get Naraku out of the area."

" But what? Naraku's not going to make it easy to get to his heart you know. He probably has some sort of trap or something." Miroku spoke.

" We could use Koga."

" Inuyasha! S-" She was cut off by Sesshoumaru.

" Wait, Inuyasha may be right." Kagome and Koga stared at Sesshoumaru weird. Inuyasha glared at him.

" What o you mean by that, Sesshoumaru? You want Naraku to kill me."

" No. You could play the distraction while me and Inuyasha go to Mt. Haki and destroy Naraku's heart."

" That could work, but what would Kagome, Miroku, Kohaku, and I do?"

Kagome thought about this for a minute. This would be difficult if Koga had to do the fighting by himself. However, if they got involved, Naraku would notice that Sesshoumaru and Inuyasha were missing. Then she got an idea. " Well what about Hatchi and Shippo? They could shape shift to look like Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru. That way we can go to Naraku and make him believe that we don't know about his heart."

Shippo jumped on top of Inuyasha's head. " But I can't shape shift for a long time. He would be able to catch me."

" Well then shape shift for a little while and then…. we'll need Rin. Shippo shape shift into Sesshoumaru. Then Rin will scream as if she was being attacked and you as Sesshoumaru will go to get her. Kohaku stay with Rin just incase an actual demon tries to attack her."

Sesshoumaru stood up. I'll get Rin. When I come back we'll start heading to Mt. Haki. You all better be ready." With that he walked out of the hut."

Sesshoumaru's POV

I walked out to see the sun setting. We spent all that time trying to devise a plan? This is ridiculous! If I had to kill Naraku on my own, it would be done already. I should have never listened to that woman. I could kill Naraku on my own. I was angry at Kagura for making me work with others. This was her fault. I should be glad she's dead and yet…I can't help but feel sorry for her.

I looked into the sky. I felt a soft breeze and heard something that sounded like singing. It sounded a lot like Kagura's voice, but I knew it was impossible. She was dead. Gone forever and she will never be seen again. Kagura, the first and only woman I would ever fall in love with.

I stopped reminiscing about her and thought back to Naraku, the cause of her death. I wanted revenge more than anything. Naraku was going to pay for kidnapping Rin and killing Kagura. I can't forgive him.

I stopped at the castle. Was greeted by Rin coming up to me. " Sesshoumaru-sama, your back. Did you kill Naraku already?"

" No, but we need your help to kill him."

" But, but…I-I never killed anyone before! I don't-"

I sensed how scared she was. I didn't want to put her in danger, but it was the only way to kill Naraku. " Rin, Kohaku will be with you. We need you to stay in the forest and scream loud enough for Shippo to here you. He will look like me. I won't be there because I'm going somewhere with Inuyasha. Do you think you can do this?"

Rin smiled and nodded her head. I patted her on the head. " Jaken, you can stay here. Watch the castle. Kohaku will bring Rin and Shippo here once we are done with them."

Jaken nodded his head as Rin and I walked off.

We entered the hut. It seemed as I went to get Rin, Miroku and Sango went to get some tanuki youkai. Rin sat down beside Kirara and petted her. I looked over at Inuyasha and Koga, who were still arguing.

" Sesshoumaru, we're all ready to go now."

" Good. Why don't you explain the full plan."

The priestess nodded. " Ok everyone, listen up. Here's the plan. Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru are going to leave for Mt. Haki exactly five minutes after we head to Naraku. I know where he is and he's not to far from how much I sense the Shikon Jewel. Once we're close enough, Kohaku will take Rin into the forest. Kohaku will watch the fight from a tree branch. Shippo will give Kohaku the signal for Rin to scream and lure Shippo, posed as Sesshoumaru, into the forest. Hatchi will be Inuyasha and just try to avoid Naraku's attacks. Sango, Miroku, Koga, and I will protect you if anything. Does everyone understand?" Everyone nodded

Inuyasha stood by the door. " Good then let's go."
