Chapter 15-The End is Here-Part 1

(Kaede's Village-Late Dusk to Early Dawn)

One and a half days. For one and half days Inuyasha had been with Kikyo, Sango, and Kilala making love to all three of them with everything he was. It amazed even him just how much stamina he had in himself, but one look on any of the three lovely women that were now sleeping peacefully with smiles on their faces and of could tell that they were not going to complain about it being a bad thing. Inuyasha could only smile as he covered the ladies up with a nearby blanket as he had intentionally or unintentionally (depending on your perspective) tired them out from their recent love making. He kissed each one on the forehead gently before leaving the hut as he had important business to attend to. He felt kind of guilty feeling it was unfair leaving the three women he loved like that fully knowing they would worry about him when they woke up, but no one ever said life was fair. 'All is fair in love and war, but right now my love making time with them is now most unfortunately over. Now it is time to go to war and I need some help from someone who will help in this endeavor,' thought Inuyasha as he looked back on final time at them all before he finally left them to continue sleeping.

Inuyasha made his way down the road of the village in the area he was in till he stopped at a small, but comfortable looking house meant for two maybe three people (though the third would probably HAVE to stand from the looks of it). He knocked on the door three times before he waited approximately 5 seconds before opening the door to find a still sleeping Sesshomorru and Kagura both naked (though it was hard to tell with the white bed sheet covering their bodies) sleeping as lovers would sleep. Truth be told Inuyasha would rather have just fought Naraku with his plan he created by himself, but he knew he couldn't do it without these two and he need their help...NOW! He walked over to them silently to Sesshomorru first before he knelt down, and nudged him with hand only to have Sesshomorru grab him by the throat with his one good hand. "Good to see you to," said Inuyasha in a highly sarcastic tone ignoring the grip on his throat before it was then released by Sesshomorru after the said demon lord's grip on his younger brother's throat was removed.

"What are you doing here Inuyasha? Shouldn't you be with your own mates or do I have to make it clear to stay away from mine?" said Sesshomorru in annoyance as he noticed that Inuyasha was playfully eyeing Kagura as if she were possibly in his reach.

"I came here to help you keep Kagura after you two help me kill Naraku. I would have my mates come with me, but I don't know what I would do if they got hurt. Besides...all we need are the three of us to kill him if we pull of the plan I have set for us. Go wake Kagura up and get dressed I have to go speak with Kaede and Miroku before I give you anymore info on the plan," said Inuyasha smacking his brother's shoulder before leaving for the one he was seeking.

"He'll be the death of me I know it," said Sesshomorru as he looked at the quite content Kagura next to him knowing she was not going to happy to be awakened from her for once peaceful sleep.

(Moments Later in Kaede's Village)

Inuyasha finally caught up to Miroku and Kaede who were with all 4 children by their side as they were being taught various things by the two people. People he trusted now more then ever with others he cared about. All the more reason to speak with them as the kids they were watching over as it pertained to them as well. "Daddy!" said Shiori as she tackled Inuyasha though not enough to knock him back much to their surprise from the speed Shiori used when colliding with Inuyasha.

"Hey their Shiori! How is everyone? The monk didn't try do anything too stupid while I was away from all of you did he?" said Inuyasha looking up briefly at slightly paling at the face Miroku before gazing back down to Shiori who giggled and shook her head "no" for a response.

"No. Miroku was with us while you were away 'embracing your luck' from what Miroku was saying yesterday to Kaede. What does that mean?" said Shiori innocently enough as Miroku had refused in a very strange manner (in her mind) why he couldn't tell her.

Inuyasha's right eyebrow twitched rather violently after hearing that and Miroku had only now realized that being a lecherous monk for a good deal of your life can be hazardous to your health. "Not till you are much older and more grown up. As for what Miroku said...I want everyone here younger then 8 years old to cover their eyes and their ears," said a slightly agitated Inuyasha smiling rather evilly at the monk who started taking lots of if not many small steps back before trying to run for his life only to be caught and beaten repeatedly into the ground by Inuyasha who in his own reasoning didn't want his children becoming perverted lechers.

Kaede could only sigh as Miroku got the holy lecher stuffing beaten (that was) out of him by Inuyasha for a good 10-15 minutes. 'At this rate ye will out live even Miroku with all the things he does that are lecherous around Inuyasha and the others. What a good waist of spiritual talent,' thought Kaede as she saw that Inuyasha finally stopped after deciding NOT to shove Miroku's staff up the monk ass for making his point clear to stop being a perverted monk out of the fact that doing it now would be pointless as the monk was like many other times in being beating by Sango...unconscious.

"Okay you can open your eyes and hears now as daddy has something to say to all of you hear INCLUDING the one who is unconscious on the ground though you may have to try and tell him later. Kaede, Shiori, Shippo, Kanna, and Rin what I'm about tell you is very important and VERY serious. Do you understand? (they all nod) Good. First, I want to say that I'm proud of you. All of you for being with me when I needed your support the most and not betraying me like those whose names I would rather not speak. Second, I must inform you that only Sesshomorru, Kagura, and I are leaving shortly to take down Naraku and free Kohaku from his grasp," said Inuyasha hearing gasps of shock from everyone in front of him.

"You can't!" said Shiori fearing for her father's life as did the others.

"No! Rin won't let you go," said Rin grabbing Inuyasha's leg holding onto him with everything she had so Inuyasha could leave her or the others.

"It seems to me you will have to fight off your children before you start this plan of yours Inuyasha," said Sesshomorru who only now with Kagura made their appearance as well as presence known to him.

"About time you got here. What kept you? No don't tell me I don't want to know. In any case now that you are here I can tell you my plan. You know the sacred jewel is almost complete and Naraku has the vast majority of the jewel right?" said Inuyasha after prying free Rin's grasp on his leg and then leaping towards the two before the children could do anything even though Kaede intercepted them moving them away for the grown ups to talk to each other.

"Of course. I've seen the jewel myself in Naraku's hands on more then one occasion. He thinks it will need only a few more shards to make it whole. Three shards of the jewel at the most I think from the way he talked about getting Koga's shards and then prying out Kohaku's to make it complete," said Kagura as she had been Naraku's involuntary right hand against her will.

"It's five actually. Two of the shards I have are smaller then the normal ones our group went after in the past. For the plan I have to work will require great planning as well as sacrifice on all our parts and with a little luck...we may just get through this alive. You in?" said Inuyasha looking at both Sesshomorru and Kagura who nodded a "yes".

'I hope his plan was carefully thought out,' thought Sesshomorru and Kagura seeing the feral look on Inuyasha that only he could produce.

"Good. The plan is as I describe it so pay attention. First, I will give you Kagura the four shards I have to give to Naraku. When you approach him to give him the jewel shards you have to offer a trade to him that he will gladly accept. He gives you your heart and freedom in exchange for the sacred jewel shards I gave you. Second, while that part of the plan is currently happening Sesshomorru and I will head East to that little cave where Kohaku is and we destroy the harpy demons that reside their while saving Kohaku at the same time. We will then remove the jewel shard from his back and restore him with Tenseiga to give back to Sango, who like the others will be so happy they won't kill me when we get back from leaving them for the fight," said Inuyasha chuckling a little at visualizing Sango struggling between hurting Inuyasha and making love to him at the same time for leaving her to bring her little brother back in her arms.

"Please continue I don't need to have images play in my head of what would happen if and when that did occur," said Kagura tiredly as she fought hard to ignore images in her mind of the possible things that would happen between Inuyasha and his three mates.

"Third, after we briefly return to this village with Kohaku Sesshomorru and I will follow the trail you so...'conveniently' left for us to follow to Naraku's castle. By the time we get their you have obtained your freedom and Sesshomorru and I will fight Naraku with your help and kill him before he knows what hit him," said Inuyasha laugh a very sinister laughter at the thought of seeing Naraku's shocked face before the spider died at their hands.

"Well the first two are easy to do, but unfortunately the third one is going to be difficult to accomplish as Naraku will have all, but one shard of the jewel. Thus making the damn spider demon almost impossible to kill when we fight him," said Kagura as she thought about Inuyasha's plan carefully and was very impressed by it though she refused to show it.

"Key word being 'almost' Kagura. All we have to do is get into the castle to kill him and then it shouldn't be that difficult at all in the slightest," said Sesshomorru finding the plan Inuyasha is both solid and reasonably sound.

"It's settled. Let's go while we have a chance. Knowing Naraku he's nearly completed the breeding program for the harpy demons and Kohaku is going to be the one who commands them," said Inuyasha throwing the four jewel shards to Kagura who caught them easily.

"I'll see you in the castle," said Kagura as she took to the air in her now giant feather towards Naraku's castle.

"Sure...since it is better then seeing you in hell," said Inuyasha jokingly smiling at her as she got smaller and smaller with each passing second before he and Sesshomorru took of to the cave in the East where Kagura had told them to go.

(3 Hours Later- Still in Kaede's Village)

In a nice sized house somewhere in Kaede's village three very beautiful, well shaped, and 100 percent completely naked women awoke from their slumber one after the other. The first thing they did was stir in the sheets before grabbing onto them so they could sleep more into the day. That is until they realized that the one person that was responsible for making them this sleepy and tired was missing due to the considerable amount of mass that they had once surround themselves before going to sleep was now gone. Instantly all three women sat up with holding their long bed sheet covering them up their naked form. "Where is Inuyasha?" said Sango looking around like the others were hoping that they had not imagined what had happened to them last night and hoped that somehow they had not done something ENITRELY different.

There was a knock at the door getting all three ladies attention before an elderly woman in priestess clothing with one eye patch came in before shutting the door behind her right after she entered. "I trust you all slept well? Though from noise that ye heard ye takes it you three didn't do much sleeping last night with Inuyasha," said Kaede smiling if not smirking slightly at the three women blushed in unison as they easily recalled last nights events were fun, wild, and above all else...pleasurable for them.

"I take it with you here the children are being watch by Miroku?" said Kilala using all her will power to get out of her blissful memory of how Inuyasha manipulated his tongue last night in a particular moment in the love making.

"Yes. Though when I left him I made sure he stayed serious or else I would commission Inuyasha to help me castrate the man should he fail to watch over them," said Kaede as she mentally smiled as she remembered Miroku paling a new white that would be even whiter then snow when she told him that.

"Speaking of Inuyasha where is he at this moment?" said Kikyo as she wondered where her...or rather their SHARED lover was.

Kaede frowned a little as her small smile left her face and now became serious as to what she was about to tell them was of a serious nature. "Ye shall start from the beginning that was earlier today," said Kaede as she told them what she recalled from Inuyasha meeting her to when he left and as she expected she got the response that all those with old ears dreaded...they screamed.

(Slightly Earlier-Elsewhere in the Village)

"Miroku why couldn't we help Inuyasha he may need us or at least you to help him with your Wind Tunnel? Doesn't he think were strong enough?" said Shippo as he didn't like the fact that their father had left him with the lecherous monk much left him and the three others from being beside him to fight Naraku.

"There is no doubt in my mind that Inuyasha thinks you are strong Shippo or any of you for that matter, but you do not know Inuyasha as I do. Granted you were probably with him a lot longer then I was Shippo when you first traveled with him, but when you are old as I am and have seen things very few do you tend to understand others like Inuyasha. You tend to understand people like him, for what reasons he's is leaving us here, and why he is doing it," said Miroku as he was sitting down on a nearby rock with all four kids sitting in front of him in a little semi-circle.

"What do you mean?" said Shiori looking curiously at Miroku as she was wondering why her father would do what he was doing and why like Miroku had said.

"Well you all know that Inuyasha didn't exactly have the greatest childhood around and now that I think about none of you really did either (they all nod). Well to Inuyasha in a sense he has become like a father to you as well as you being his children to him. During his childhood all he has known is pain and the last thing he wants is for all of you to feel the pain he did when he was growing up. Whether the threat is coming from Naraku or by some other threat that could come our way if were not careful. In a way Inuyasha is doing what a father does and is protecting you from any harm," said Miroku smiling as he got nods of understanding from the four children though he was sure Kanna was doing it on purpose so the others wouldn't know that she knew already.

"WHAT!" yelled three voices far off in the village that were identified in Miroku's mind as Sango, Kikyo, and Kilala.

"This...can NOT be good," said Miroku who was starting to sweat a little on his forehead full knowing that at the moment when a group of women got angry and only one guy was around (who just happened to grope and flirt with women in a lecherous manner), then that one guy that just happened to be him paid the price whether he was responsible for them being angry or not.

(At That Moment-East of Kaede's Village-20 Miles to be Exact)

Inuyasha sneezed lightly, but doing it three times in a row made it seem slightly harsh to hi sensitive nose. 'Judging from the sneezes I got I take it my three mates are awake and they are NOT happy. Well if I know two out of the three women as I think I do and if the other follows them into what I think will happen I can expect Miroku to be in neck high in bandages for the next few days if not weeks. If he wasn't such a lecherous monk and this wasn't such an important mission I might feel sorry for him,' thought Inuyasha as he ran beside Sesshomorru nearing the cave thanks to their sense detecting the stench of faint traces miasma in the air and were getting closer as they were getting nearer to their destination.

"I see the cave up ahead Inuyasha," said Sesshomorru reading Tokijin removing it from his waist and ready to use when the time came.

"Yeah the smell of miasma mixed with the harpy demon blood that I remember from my last encounter with them is getting stronger as we near it. Remember we don't want to injure Kohaku unless it's a last resort and then it has to be only a knock out hit. Nothing lethal of any kind. I would rather not have to try and revive him while were fighting off harpy demons and then explain to Sango what went down. Got it?" said Inuyasha as he wanted to make sure to Sesshomorru that he would prefer Kohaku returned to Sango in one piece.

"Of course Inuyasha. I remember the plan and I will not fail. After all I have to prove to you I am worthy of being called your brother once more," said Sesshomorru right before they stopped just outside the cave entrance.

"Well should we go in or just announce ourselves?" said Inuyasha cracking a smile at his comrade next to him as he drew Tetsuigia from his sheath.

"I propose a compromise of the two. Let us go in and then introduce ourselves. We don't want to be rude now," said Sesshomorru smiling a smile that promised a painful death to the enemies that were inside all the while joking about the whole situation with Inuyasha, which was completely different from Sesshomorru's old self.

"Of course Sesshomorru after all...were guests and like well mannered guests we have to introduce ourselves to our hosts inside," said Inuyasha as the two ran into the cave with their demonic blades ready for battle.

(Inside the Cave)

Kohaku wasn't stupid even as a slave to his master's will and dark power that the spider demon had over him. He had set up special detection seals inside the cave to warn him of intruders that were not him, Naraku, or a possible harpy demon that wondered outside the cave. "We have two uninvited guests. Kill them both," said Kohaku to the harpy demons that now all stirred awake hungry for battle.

Inuyasha and Sesshomorru both made their way through the tunneled cave to a very large circular area with multiple pathways surrounding them. "Well no one ever said choosing would be easy," said Inuyasha smiling as he took two steps before stopping with his once smiling face turned serious before he started growling.

"You sense it too don't you?" said Sesshomorru readying Tokijin as Inuyasha readied Tetsuigia for battle.

"Yeah we got incoming harpy demons. Oh well at least this way we don't have to waste any energy in finding them all," said Inuyasha as he saw the harpy demons coming out of every passage way in front of them.

"Shall we proceed?" said Sesshomorru smiling as he slashed through three harpy demons while Inuyasha cut through six in a spiral sword slash attack with Tetsuigia.

"Yes. Let us go," said Inuyasha as he and Sesshomorru charged forward cutting through every single harpy demon in their path as they soon became surrounded on all sides.

(Elsewhere in the Cave)

Kohaku was not pleased with this turn of events and readied his demon slaying weapon for battle knowing that even with this army as strong as it had become was no match for to powerful demons like Inuyasha and Sesshomorru. He recognized their demonic aura's from the previous encounters he had with the two of them. 'Master Naraku is not going to be pleased I have to fight my way out of here or else,' thought Kohaku as he ordered the movement of more harpy demons into the battle not far from his location.

'Kohaku my loyal slave what is wrong? I sense something is amiss. What is it?' said the echoing sound of Naraku's voice inside the boys head.

'Both Inuyasha and Sesshomorru are here my Lord. They are killing off your new army of harpy demons as we speak that are engaging them,' thought Kohaku who instantly felt the dark anger of his master from their connection.

'DAMN THEM! Kohaku get out of there I need you back at the castle. Something is off and I intend to find out what it is with you by my side. Hurry!' thought Naraku cutting off the connection between him and the boy.

"Yes master," said Kohaku out loud as he put on his demon slaying mask with weapon in hand and moved swiftly through the miasma harpy demon horde in hopes of passing the two demon brothers that were destroying it.

(With Inuyasha and Sesshomorru)

The two demon brothers now stood back to back swords at the ready as the blood of the demon harpies stained the ground. "It appears we bit off a little bit more then we could chew Inuyasha," said Sesshomorru sending a powerful blast of demon energy through his sword at the harpies killing over 10 of them.

"Yeah well no one ever said killing an army with just two people was easy," said a still confident Inuyasha, who plunged his sword down as red demonic energy coursed through it into the ground towards his enemies killing 15 of them in the process.

It was then that something caught their eye before a new wave of harpy demons came at them forcing them to divert their attention to the task at hand. "Inuyasha did you see what I saw?" said Sesshomorru as he moved gracefully at a diagonal ark and sliced a harpy in half.

"Yeah we got a runner. Kohaku running to be more exact. I'll go after him you stay and fight all these guys I'll be back to help you when I can," said Inuyasha slashing his way through harpy demons left and right to where Kohaku was running.

"Sure leave me with the easy job," said Sesshomorru in a slightly sarcastic voice as he cut down 2 more harpies.

(Just Outside the Cave)

Kohaku just made his way out of the cave and started heading for Naraku's castle where his master was waiting for him. 'I need to hurry or else if I'm not careful then...,' thought Kohaku, but was interrupted when a large demon sword came between him and the boy's intended destination.

"KOHAKU!" yelled Inuyasha from behind the said boy before coming up 5 feet behind him his claws flexed.

"Hello Inuyasha. You've changed since last I saw you, but your aura is still the same as before just a lot stronger. As much as I would like to stick around I have to return to my master Naraku so I can protect him from people like you," said Kohaku unleashing his smoke bomb pellets hidden under his armor trying to blind and disorient Inuyasha so he could escape.

It didn't have the intended effect he wanted because as soon as Kohaku turned around to run Inuyasha was right their less then 2 feet away this time looking rather unhappy at the boy. "If that's all you got I'm disappointed in you Kohaku .I would expected more from Sango's little brother. I guess you are not the demon slayer she thought you were much less the powerful servant Naraku makes you out to be," said Inuyasha trying to throw off Kohaku's actions with memories of the boy's past growing up with his sister training to be a strong demon slayer like his father.

"Shut up!" said Kohaku leaping back a few feet readying his sword and hook chain for battle while Inuyasha just put his right hand behind and picked up Tetsuigia without even turning around.

"I promised Sango I would bring you back and I will not be made a liar Kohaku. Once I succeed in knocking you out I'm going to remove that jewel shard from your back and then bring you back to life with Tenseiga," said Inuyasha taking a step forward causing Kohaku to react by fighting back by throwing the hook chain at Inuyasha.

"I will not go back I live only to serve my master," said Kohaku as the weapon wrapped around Tetsuigia trying to knock it out of Inuyasha's grip only the sword didn't budge.

"You are lucky Sango here to hear you say those words. You would have broken your poor sister's heart and THEN...I would have had to break your NECK!" said Inuyasha angrily as he was through playing around as this was now a serious matter when it came to the mentioning of 1 of 3 mates.

"Just try it half-breed," said Kohaku, who leaped into the air sword raised with a look in his now glazed eyes telling him he was no longer under his own sound mind.

"As...you...wish...little BOY!" said Inuyasha in an angry demonic voice as play time with Kohaku was now officially...over.

Kohaku was about 2 seconds to hit Inuyasha with his sword when he was suddenly pulled faster toward Inuyasha only to realize the said half-demon had spun in a circle. A spin of a circle that was now arching to the left so when Kohaku missed his intended target he was then back handed by Inuyasha with the hilt of his sword...hard. The blow itself was more then enough to knock Kohaku out cold though it was harsh in Inuyasha's opinion the boy got what he rightfully deserved it for saying what he did. 'You are lucky Sango loves you Kohaku or I would skewer you with Tetsuigia myself,' thought Inuyasha as he put Tetsuigia away and took out Tenseiga before kneeling down and ripping the top back of Kohaku demon slayer uniform.

He examined the boy's upper back and found multiple scars on the boy not all caused by wounds from when he supposedly died. "Not surprising Naraku is a sadist. He probably assaulted the boy to amuse himself on cold nights. Ah here it is," said Inuyasha feeling a jewel shard sized lump of an insertion on the boy's upper back just below the neck area before removing it with careful precision.

As expected the body of Kohaku became lifeless and dull looking and sure enough with Tenseiga he could see the servants of death already swarming for the body. 'Not today,' thought Inuyasha as the slashed down on Kohaku with Tenseiga killing the little imps that were deaths servants this reviving Kohaku back to life and consciousness.

"Where...where am I? Who...who are you?" said Kohaku as his mind was a complete blur of events that he didn't understand.

"My name is Inuyasha. I am a...close friend of our sister Sango," said Inuyasha as he did not believe that Kohaku was ready just yet to handle the news of him making being the one who made sweet love to the boy's sister before coming here to rescue him.

Not that he would have of course. "Oh! Um...well what happens now?" said Kohaku as Inuyasha put away Tenseiga into its sheath.

"First, you are going to stay here and get your thoughts together while I help my brother in that cave over there. Second, were going to take you back to a village I know of where your sister is. And third, I'm going to kill a certain person named Naraku who has been manipulating you into being his loyal servant all this time," said Inuyasha patting the boy on the head before heading back into the cave with Tetsuigia once more drawn out into his hand to fight once more.

'Sango. What has happened to you while I have been away?' thought Kohaku as he tried to remember what had happened to him over the time of his "black out" as it was the only name he could give it.

It was minutes later of deep thought that he remembered everything that had happened to himself and could only speak three whole words that could describe it. "By the gods," said Kohaku as the horrors of the past came to his mind at such a fast pace that his mind fell back to unconsciousness.

(A/N: Hey everyone! I've got good news and bad news here. Okay first with the ever so great good news (depends on your point of view). The good news is that only one more chapter (I think) is left in this story before it ends and I can move onto Naruto. (YAY!) Now here's the bad news. (BOOOOOOOO!) SHUT THE HELL UP! (Sorry.) The bad news is school is coming up this Monday and I'm doing my job part time. This in short means little time to write much let update (talk about poor timing huh). Fear not that will not deter me from writing kick ass stories and chapters (like this one and the next). So as a SMALL favor from all of you kick ass people out their reading this I need some kick ass reviews for this chapter and the next. That's all I ask. Also when I start my Naruto story I was thinking of starting it when Naruto is 11 or after the whole thing with Mizuki. I can't decide. What do you think? I can make it work either way, but I want your opinion on this matter as what I have in store is going to blow your mind. PEACE!)
