A/N:Demon Inuyasha will be reffered to as D-Inuyasha

Broken Blossom's Flower
Chapter 2: Destruction
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
D-Inuyasha turned away from Kikyou and took a few steps toward the unmoving form before him.
Two thoughts were running through his mind, encompassing his entire being. He had to protect
Kikyou, and kill the bastard that hurt her.
"NARAKU!" he roared, "I'M GOING TO KILL YOU!"
And with that, he flung himself at the unmoving figure in front of him. Naraku sidestepped him and
tried to attack with a spear made of flesh, but had his arm sliced in half instead. Quickly regenerating
his missing body parts, he aimed again, this time striking Inuyasha's leg.
D-Inuyasha cried out in agony, but seamed more intent than ever on destroying him, ignoring the
bleeding and the pain the wound caused him. When he tried to do more damage with another volley of
spears, but had his arms destroyed each time.
'I will not be beaten by that mongrel!' he violently thought, 'But his power has increased since our last
meeting...I will have to try something new if I even want to have a chance at destroying him'
Naraku jumped high into the air, readying himself for the aerial assault he was about to inflict.
Grotesque pieces of the claws, heads and arms of other beings burst from his back, piercing his newly
created armour. D-Inuyasha flew through the air readying himself for his own attack, ...then it
happened. The ensemble of Naraku's flesh weapons shot at D-Inuyasha which such force that he didn't
have enough time to even veer out of the way. With a sound comparable to a thousand lightning bolts,
D-Inuyasha was buried under a small mountain of Naraku's own flesh.
And it was trying to absorb him.

As soon as Kagome woke up to a worried Sango, she knew something was wrong.
"What's wrong?" Kagome asked as she stood up, "And where's Miroku?"
Sango turned, "There's a battle raging on Mt. Hakurei, Miroku thinks it might be Naraku and..."
Sango's pause in speech worried Kagome, and even more when she realized who it might be.
党Not,...Inuyasha?"
Sango looked grim, "Yes, but what's more disconcerting is that...he might have transformed during or before the battle".
Kagome was horrified, "But, he could get himself killed!" She ran over to her bow and arrows, picking them up as she ran. "We have to help him!"
党Wait, Miroku's not too far from here, Kilala, let's go!"
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Not too far away, Miroku was busy climbing the mountain in search of Inuyasha. By now the mountain was shaking madly and it was difficult to stand. As he climbed to the top of a small ridge, he saw the miasma, filling the sky like a solid mass.
At the same time, though he could not see him, Miroku could feel the warped demon aura that was emanating from Inuyasha
党Damn it Inuyasha!" he yelled, why did you have to start a fight with him when we all need to heal ourselves!"
As he climbed higher he thought he heard a voice and as he turned round he saw Kagome and Sango, flying on top of Kilala. As they flew lower Sango yelled to him.
党Miroku! Get on!"
As he did, he was given a good look at what was happening between Inuyasha and Naraku. At the center of the poison was a grotesque looking Naraku, flesh rising out of his back and on to the ground below him. A few yards away from the main battle was Kikyou, unconscious and wounded.
Miroku was stunned.
He swiveled his head and yelled, "Kagome shoot the mass below with an arrow! Inuyasha's being absorbed!"
Kagome looked shocked and frightened, but she rose her bow and released the arrow which was waiting there.
Though, as the arrow inched ever closer, Naraku looked up and saw them.

When Naraku looked up to see a holy arrow being shot at him, his first reaction was not one of fear, but
one of grim satisfaction. As he raised his left arm, he used what little flesh he was not using and created
what looked like a broken mirror.
This one was like that which Kanna held, but instead of just reflecting one object back at the owner, it
would take one object then send one hundred copies back which would not stop until it had hit the
person from which it originated from.
He had intended to use this on Inuyasha but seeing as how troublesome he had been, he thought this
would be just as good of a use for it.
The arrow drawing nearer, Naraku had but one thing to say, "Goodbye you meddling priestess!"
As the arrow entered the mirror, a bright pinkish light burst forth from it and, with enough power to
destroy a small village, one hundred arrows were reflected back at Kagome.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Kagome watched as a demonic mirror was formed, and saw her arrow enter it. She shielded her eyes as
a pinkish light burst forth.
"MIROKU!" Kagome had to yell over the deafening sound that the mountain and the mirror were
making, "WHAT'S HAPPENING!"
Miroku was about to turn to answer when he saw the arrows come out of the mirror, flying with such
ferocity not even his own Wind Tunnel could capture them all. But he had to try. As they came ever
nearer he whipped of the binding beads which kept his power in check, and let his palm open.
"WIND TUNNEL!" he cried, as the arrows were but a hundred foot away.
Arrows flew towards his palm, being drawn in by the unholy vortex. One after another the arrows came
creating a pain he had never felt before, not even after surviving one of Naraku's poisonous bees. The
last few arrows were flying towards him when one of them veered off course to his hand, and hit Kilala
in her left leg. Kilala faltered and fell from the sky, crashing into a hill of earth and stone that had
formed. Miroku was thrown off, and quickly he sealed his power up.
Then it happened.
A single arrow that had escaped his Wind Tunnel, the last one out of the mirror in fact, had struck true,
piercing Kagome's right shoulder. She faltered from the pain and lost her footing, slipping down the
hill and rolling towards Naraku.
Naraku sneered, "So that's all it takes then is it? I could have gotten rid of you long ago had I thought
of that earlier!" Suddenly an idea struck him, turning his sneer into a warped and twisted smile.
"Well I suppose I should let Inuyasha see you just one last time, he has been fighting my attempts but
he is almost drained of his power, pity though that he won't live to see me kill Kikyou"
And with that, a small opening formed in the fleshy ball beneath him, enough to let someone look
through. D-Inuyasha was pushed towards the opening and was forced to watch as the blood poured out
of Kagome, and the spirits die inside Kikyou.
D-Inuyasha froze as he saw the life start to fade away in each of them and remembered all the things he
had gone through with them both. His blood quickly started to boil as he remembered that all his pain
and suffering had been caused by the being that surrounded him.
"NARAKU!", he cried out to the heavens.
Suddenly, an unearthly red light shone out from the opening in Naraku's flesh, causing Mt. Hakurei to
shine like the sun. The light disappeared as half of the mountain was blown into oblivion, leaving little
left.
Naraku had watched in pure horror as his body was destroyed for the last time. His mind started to fade
and his control on his siblings was lost. The last thing he saw was the ominous figure of a gigantic red
wolf, with eyes of blazing red.

Miroku watched as the miasma cleared and he saw Inuyasha fall to the ground. It was finally over,
Naraku was finally destroyed and would never live again, but at what cost? He and Sango slid down
the hill towards the two unconscious figures, and aided them. Kikyou was already healing, and
Kagome's bleeding was easily stopped, but Inuyasha...
Inuyasha was gone
A/N: And there's the second chapter! (Please don't kill me!) It took me a few days to finish but it was worth it. Please review if you have some input as to how the story is progressing!
I'll be trying to update weekly for those interested.
