"Have you thought of anything, yet Kagome?" Inuyasha, like always, was impatient.
"No. Just be patient. I forgot, you can't." Kagome kept her mind on Ayame.
"Hurry up! Naraku could be planning anything in there right now." Inuyasha was pacing back and fourth.
Just as Kagome was aboput to speak, Naraku's doors opened and out came Naraku and Ayame and Naraku. Ayame had arrows and Naraku had a sword.
"I've seen you've figured out my demons were just illusions. Pretty typical for a human, Kagome." Naraku immediately had his eyes on Kouga after he said that.
"I didn't like my guards anyway. We'll just have to fight you ourselves." Naraku then drew his sword.
Ayame drew her arrows and bow.
"Get ready to die!" Naraku came right after Inuyasha.
"No you ain't!" Inuyasha drew his Tetsigua and blocked Naraku's hit.
"I see you have fast reflexes. you're not fast enought for me!" Naraku let go and charged at him again.
All you could hear was the clashing of the two swords hitting one another.
"It's your ending Kagome!" Ayame shot an arrow at Kagome but missing. Something was making her miss. Every other minute she would glance at Kouga and always miss her shots. One part of her was still evil and wanted to kill Kagome while the other wanted to run into Kouga's arms and beg for forgiveness.
"Ayame! Stop this madness! I know the real you is in there!" Kouga cried to Ayame.
"Please! Listen to Kouga." While Kagome was begging for mercy, Inuyasha and Naraku were still putting up with eachother.
"I see you have your father's determination. He was a wise man I mean demon." Naraku tried to get into Inuyasha's emotinal side.
"You don't know jack about my father!" Inuyasha started to regain strength.
"Oh but I do. He was the type to fight and never have mercy on people. He almost killed your brother, Sesshormaru, because he wouldn't give him a piece of the Sacred Jewel Shard."
"That isn't true! From all the stories Myouga told me, nothing you can say can hurt me because of my human mother!" Inuyasha's eyes turned red, his hair grew longer, his nails longer, and his ears were the same. Inuyasha was now in demon form.
Meanwhile, Ayame was still shooting at Kagome.
"You stuck your nose in someone else's business and now you will pay!" Ayame shot and hit Kagome in the arm. Kagome let out a screeching cry.
"Kagome!" Kouga tried to run to her but what shot at by Ayame. She missed though.
"Take one more step and you'll be dead." Ayame aimed the arrow at Kouga's head.
"Ayame, this is not you. I know the real Ayame is in there. Remember the promise I made you. The lunar rainbow? Remember that? You know it, Ayame. Naraku has tricked you. Kagome is not the one I love, it is you. I don't see anything in Kagome bubt a pretty face, but when I see you, I see a girl who is happy and who doesn't care what anybody saids in life about her. I see Ayame. A wonderful friend and partner. Please put the arrow down." Kouga took a step forward, but Ayame raised her arrow.
"I'm sorry." Ayame shot Kouga in the chest. she shed tears and fell to the ground.
"Naraku, you will pay!" Inuyasha charged at Naraku and made 3 long and huge scratch marks across his face.
"I'll see you again, young hanyou." Naraku then turned into ashes in the wind. Inuyasha turned back into normal form.
"Kagome!" He ran towars to the hurt miko.
"I'm fine. Get Kouga and Ayame." Kagome was helped by Inuyasha getting up. They alked over to Kouga.
Ayame was crying on top of him.
"Look what I've done. I've killed him. I shall die with him." Ayame layed on top of him and was about to stick the arrow until she heard a moan from Kouga.
"Kouga? Are you alive?' Ayame's green eyes looked straight into Kouga's peeking brown ones.
"Why did you do that?" Kouga managed to say.
"You're alive!" Ayame hugged him.
"Ow! it still hurts you know!" Kouga fell into her hug.
"Sorry! Inuyasha help him up, please." Ayame gave the biggest innocent eyes a female wolf-youkai could have.
"Why don't we just let him die?" after Inuyasha said that, his face met his old friend, the Earth.
"Thank you, Kagome." Ayame nodded her head.
"No prob. I don't know when the last time I gave a sit command to him. Oh yeah, it was yesterday morning."
"You don't have to bring it back up you know!" Inuyasha wiped the dirt off of his face.
"Just help Kouga get up!" Kagome pointed to the wolf-youkai on the ground.
"Okay." Inuyasha helped Kouga out and tore off some of his kimomo to bandage his wound.
"Do you feel better?" Ayame rubbed his upper chest.
"I'm fine now that you're here." Kouga hugged Ayame and then kissed her.
"Wow, you're a great kisser." Ayame gave a thumbs up.
"Let's just get home and get some rest." Ayame put Kouga's arm over her neck while Kouga tried to balance himself.
"Well, Inuyasha, I didn't mean to bring it up! I told you you were jealous!"
"What! I could kiss five times better than Kouga!"
"Show me!"
Inuyasha then kissed Kagome.
"Um..." Inuyasha looked into the orangey sky.
"Uh..." Kagome leaned on his shoulder.
"Are you-" Inuyasha was cut off by Kagome's lips.
"Shhhh." Kagome put her finger on his lips.
"Okey dokey!" Inuyasha pick her up and they both watch the stars form into the night.
MEANWHILE
"Hakkaku, you awake?
"Yeah. That girl can really knock you out!"
"Maybe we just fell asleep. Where is everybody?"
"Ginta, I don't know. We have the castle to ourselves now!"
"PARTY TIME!" Ginta jumped up and started dancing. Hakkaku did the same.
"Sounds like the boys are awake." Ayame turned and looked at the castle.
"We're leaving Inuyasha and Ka-" Kouga was about to say Kagome but, Ayame's lips met with his.
"Never mind them. They need some alone time." Ayame took one more glance at the castle and walked off by her future husband to Kaede's house.
