I own nothing
Kagome was facing Naraku. She gripped her right shoulder in pain as blood ran down her arm. She was bleeding through her long sleeve kimono.
She didn't have her bow and arrows. She didn't think to grab them. Fighting back would be hard.
Naraku smirked.
Kagome clenched her teeth in pain but she remained standing. She wouldn't fall. No matter how much her vision was going in and out. She was losing blood fast. But she would not show her weakness to her enemy.
Naraku's claws cut her deep. The acid seeping into her wound wasn't helping either.
Kagome looked at her left palm that just covered her wound. It was covered in blood.
Naraku chuckled. "You are pathetic. If you was to die here no one would notice or care." Naraku said. He was slowly breaking Kagome mentally. And he knew it.
Kagome dropped both hands to her sides. She looked down she started to tear up.
Kagome then remembered Sango. Then her thoughts went to other people that mattered to her. She thought of Sesshomaru, Souta, and her mother.
He was wrong.
There would be people that cared if she would have died.
Kagome balled her bloodied hand into a fist. She would not break. She would fight Naraku to the death.
"Your wrong. I have people that care for me. You are just mad because you don't anymore! So you take your anger out on us!" Kagome yelled.
Naraku narrowed his eyes at Kagome.
Her eyes widened
"It seems you need to be taught a lesson on manners!" Naraku yelled as he ran at Kagome.
He punched her in the stomach. She was thrown back ten feet. She landed on her back. The breath was knocked out of her as she tried to breathe but was failing.
"Hiraikotsu!" Was the next thing everyone heard.
Sango's giant boomerang was spinning into the clearing. Leaving cut down trees in its wake. Naraku dodged Hiraikotsu as Sango ran into the clearing and caught her weapon.
The first thing Sango noticed was Kagome. She was laying on her back. Sango turned to Naraku. Anger flooding her aura.
"What have you done to Kagome?!" Sango asked bitterly. Naraku chuckled.
"I taught her a lesson. And you Sango are about to receive one as well." Naraku said as he sent acid at Sango using his hand. He slung his acid as if he was throwing knives.
Kagome acted quickly. She stood and ran towards Sango. She couldn't let her best friend get hurt.
Kagome pushed Sango out of the way. Kagome took the hit. It hit Kagome in her left side near her rib cage. She cried out as she fell to her knees. The pain was excruciating.
"Kagome!" Sango yelled.
"S-sango." Kagome said as she collapsed on her belly. Kagome was still having trouble with breathing. Sango kneeled down next to her. She laid Hiraikotsu down to.
Kagome was lying down. Sango flipped her on her back. Kagome clenched her teeth in pain.
Naraku chuckled at the humans. They looked so pathetic to him.
"You idiot Kagome. Why did you do that?!" Sango asked.
Kagome looked up at sango. "B-Because your my best friend." She said.
Sango grabbed Hiraikotsu. She lifted it as she stood. She looked down at Kagome. Kagome winced in pain.
Naraku chuckled again.
"You will pay for that." Sango said as her brown eyes glared at Naraku.
Naraku smirked.
"Hiraikotsu!" She yelled as she threw her boomerang. Naraku didn't even try to dodge. Hiraikotsu cut Naraku in half. but before he hit the ground and before Sango could blink. Naraku's acid fell from his upper half to his bottom half and it attached him in making himself grow back.
He continued to stand. Sango gasped when she saw Naraku. It was like she never even cut him in half.
"You can't kill me. You are pathetic." Naraku said with a smirk.
Just then Sesshomaru came out of the sky. As soon as he landed he sent his acid whip at Naraku.
Sango took this distraction to throw Hiraikotsu again. Sesshomaru got out of the way. Naraku dodged. Sango caught Hiraikotsu. She realized she was no help so she turned to Kagome. Inutaisho was already at her side.
Inutaisho knew not to get in the battle between Sesshomaru and Naraku. Sesshomaru was pissed. Inutaisho looked at the wound on Kagome's left side. It wasn't bleeding near as bad as her shoulder.
He heard Sesshomaru and Naraku clashing blades. Sesshomaru had three swords on his left hip. Tensaiga the sword of healing, Tokijin, and Bakusaiga. Sesshomaru was currently using Tokijin.
Inutaisho looked at Sesshomaru. Kagome was bleeding bad. "Sesshomaru! Wrap this battle up! Kagome is bleeding badly!" He roared. Sesshomaru didn't reply.
Sesshomaru didn't need to hear from his father that Kagome was bleeding. He could smell it.
"Dragon stike!" Sesshomaru yelled. A blue lighting like attack was sent a Naraku.
Sesshomaru's attack sent volts of electricity through Naraku. It hurt terribly.
Naraku was pushed back. But when the attack disbursed, Naraku ran at Sesshomaru. They clashed blades again. Sesshomaru swung his sword at Naraku. It cut him in the chest. He healed instantly. A green like glow was in the cut. Then it was no more.
Just then Kagome's aura flared a great deal. Naraku jumped back. Naraku raised his hand and disappeared into the cloud of acid that formed. Naraku was gone. Naraku was worried Kagome's spiritual energy would come out. The coward.
Sesshomaru sheathed Tokijin. He turned to Kagome. She was still on the ground. His father lifted Kagome bridal style.
"I can carry her if you wish father." Sesshomaru said. Inutaisho nodded he handed Kagome to Sesshomaru. Sesshomaru took Kagome from his father. She was still awake and in pain.
"Go on Sesshomaru. Me and the slayer will catch up. Get her to a healer." Inutaisho said. Sesshomaru nodded and formed his ball of light. He flew at full speed toward the Western castle. Flying in his orb of light was the quickest way to travel.
Inutaisho turned to Sango.
"Go to the castle and get your most important belongings. You and Kagome are coming with us to the West and soon the East will have to title you as missing just like they did with Souta." Inutaisho said. Sango nodded. She ran off to get clothes for her and Kagome and she also had to get Kilala.
Minutes later Sango came back.
"Ready." Sango said. Kilala was on her shoulder. She had Hiraikotsu and a bag of clothes on her back. They would finally leave the Eastern castle. They were free for now.
It took thirty minutes for Sesshomaru to make it to the Western castle. He prayed that Kagome would live.
