Chapter eleven.

" Play time is over. You shall all die!"

The words rang in Inuyasha's ears. He turned around to find his nemesis charging towards him. Everything had come down to this. All of Naraku's creatures, his demons, his puppets, all were destroyed. All that was left was he and this final battle. All those years of searching for the jewel shards, all those years holding the anger towards him. Those times when he could just find him and kill him. It all came down to this. Just Naraku and Inuyasha. The final battle. This man had brought so much pain to his life, he had made it a living hell. He had framed Inuyasha by killing Kikyou, he had killed his heart 50 years ago, and he had done it again now by playing with Kagome's life. It angered him to no end. He detested this being, this creature above all. He was the one, the one that was the reason to all his pains, all his hurt, he was the one who started it all but he would not be the one to end it. I will end it, today, now. Inuyasha thought, unsheathing Tetsusaiga. He looked back at his friends, at his Kagome. Her eyes were still unfocused, she was leaning on the others for support, he leaned towards her and kissed her square on her lips, and whispered slow in her ears, " Wish me luck." He moved away from them and towards the clearing waiting for the final battle to begin. Now or never.

As Naraku came forth, Inuyasha brought his sword forward and attacked. But Naraku dodged. He attacked again. But Naraku dodged. And again he attacked but again he dodged. " Can't you fight? You coward!" Inuyasha shouted.

" Oh! So are you telling me that you were fighting? I thought we were just warming up. If it's a fight you want, it's a fight you got."

" Iron Reaver Soul Stealer." Inuyasha shouted and attacked, this time though Naraku didn't dodge instead he came forward, miasma surrounding him, the fog blinded Inuyasha and he couldn't see where the position of his foe was, he just attacked the wind, but then he heard a faint tsk tsk behind him. He turned around but only to be hit in the jaw by Naraku. The force of the punch was so much that Inuyasha was thrown to the ground. He had underestimated Naraku's powers, and that had caused him much. This could cause him his life. He charged again at Naraku but was again blocked and his attack was countered.

Both of them were fighting for some time now, Inuyasha had managed to inflict some severe wounds on Naraku, but so had he. Kagome was watching this from under the oak tree. Her heart ached to see Inuyasha so severely hurt. She wanted to help. She wanted to tend to his wounds, she wanted to do anything to ease his pain but she was too weak. After Naraku kidnapped her, she couldn't remember anything, she remembered the little chat she had with him and then she remembered waking up in Inuyasha's arms, Kikyou dead, and him kissing her! It was odd to see him finally showing his feelings for her. Usually he would just Feh or turn around but never really express how he felt. When he kissed her, she was filled with tingling pleasure. He had finally realized his love for her. It was just so overwhelming. Her eyes were filled with tears, tears of joy, tears of hurt, she was happy to see Inuyasha finally expressing himself, but she was now afraid of losing him, the way this fight was going, she wasn't sure if Inuyasha was going to make it, he had both a 50/50 chance of either killing Naraku or getting killed himself. Miroku and Sango had filled her in on what had happened. Kohaku stood by Sango's side, so did Miroku. Kagome so wanted to do something, anything at all, to help Inuyasha but she did not know what to do. As she watched the battle rage on, as she saw Inuyasha fall from the force of Naraku's attack. Her heart skipped a beat. But the last straw was when he slowly turned around and mouthed her name, " Kagome" Inuyasha whispered. She knew that her lover needed her. She knew that she had to bring an end to this battle. She looked at Naraku and her anger flared. He had brought pain. He was the reason all of them were suffering, Inuyasha had suffered the loss of his love 50 years ago, Sango had lost her family and had almost given up hope on getting her brother back, Miroku had a black void in his hand, the curse that followed his family line and would follow until Naraku was killed, Shippo lost his parents, he was an orphan just because of… Naraku.

She felt her miko power rising, a slight pinkish white glow surrounded her. She moved her arms right then left, this movement causing a bow and arrow to form out of the mist surrounding her, " NARAKU!" She shouted and aimed three arrows at his heart, then she looked at Inuyasha, who got to his feet and nodded, she let go of the arrows and Inuyasha jumped in the air, " Windscar!" Kagome's arrows increased the power of Inuyasha's attack, and as this power set out to destroy Naraku, a pain filled scream filled the air and Naraku was gone. Dead.

Kagome looked at the battlefield and looked at Inuyasha, he was bruised and battered from his fight, she walked to him, wrapped her arms around him and kissed him fiercely. All those times when she wished to hold him forever, all those times she wanted him, now she finally had him, all to herself. He was hers and she was his, there was nothing that could change that fact. Her miko powers again rising and encompassing both of them in its light, her gentle power washed over his wounds and he healed. She pulled back to get some air, " I love you." She whispered embracing him.

" I do too."

" Um.. Lady Kagome what do we do of this jewel shard?" Miroku said holding up the shard that had fallen to the ground after Kikyou's death. Kagome moved forward and picked it up, her touch instantly purifying it.

" I have to get the rest of the jewel from my time." Her voice trembling slightly as she thought of her fate, after the completion of the jewel.

--------------------

The jewel is near completion. What will they wish for? Will Kagome go home? Will Inuyasha become a full demon? All of these things coming up in the next chapter. I hope you like this one though. Please review.
