Chapter 13

Inuyasha ran thought the forest not caring if he was early or not. What Sesshoumaru had told him made him confused at first. However once he thought about it he understood. He promised himself as a child to Kagome before he promised anything to Kikiyo. 'Kagome…I'm so sorry.' He thought. Once he came up to her barrier he stopped. It was an amazing light blue color that was close to being sliver.

He crossed the barrier without a problem and entered the cave. Before jumping down into the whole that led to their spot he pulled out the necklace he hand made fore her and eyed it. 'Please…don't let it be to late.' and with that last thought in mind he jumped down. As he landed he heard Kagome's soft voice say, "You're early."

"Yeah, I had something to say to you." was his answer.

"Well then…after you." Kagome said as she staid in her same sitting spot.

Kagome had her back to him and just couldn't face him. Inuyasha staid quiet and walked over to her. Before she knew it she felt a string go around her neck. She looked down and found a sliver, heart shaped stone around her neck. She turned around and looked into his deep golden orbs that she loved. That's when she head him say, "You're the one I've always wanted…you set me free from that bitches spell. Kagome…I love you my mate."

But before she could ask anything, Inuyasha's lips had found hers. She sat there wide eyed and in shock before returning the kiss. When he asked for entrance she gladly opened up. After breaking apart for much needed air Kagome said, "Inuyasha…my mate…my love." in the softest of voice that Inuyasha barely heard her say it.

"Inuyasha?" she asked after a small moment of silence.

"What?" he replied.

"What are you going to do about Kikiyo?" Kagome asked regretfully.

"She can go and be with Naraku. He's disgusting scent is already all over her." was his answer.

"Does this mean your coming with me to the east?" she added.

"Damn…are you always going to be asking so may questions?" he asked playfully.

"Yup…that why I can annoy the hell out of you." was her reply.

"Yes, I guess I will go." was his cocky answer.

Before anything else could both his and her ears perked up and they turned to the water to see air coming up. Both of them stood up but neither moved their eyes form the water. The moment Sango and Miroku popped up they relaxed but rushed over when they saw the leeches. After Miroku was safe Kagome turned to Sango and asked, "What the hell is going on?"

"Kagome…your uncle is dead. Kikiyo killed him and Kagura was in on it with Naraku." Sango said softly.

"Where are Sesshoumaru and Rin?" Inuyasha asked

"Kikiyo is holding them in a barrier, their waiting for us." Miroku answered.

"Damn her…I warned her." Kagome growled as she began to combing her demon and miko energy as one.

"Kagome…it's a trap, you have to be careful…you take care of that bitch of a cousin and we'll get Kagura." Sango said.

"Naraku is mine." Inuyasha growled as he's purple strips appeared on his check.

"Inuyasha calm down. We don't want you in blood lust mode. Miroku said.

"Blood lust mode?" Kagome questioned.

"I can't control myself when my demon blood takes over." Inuyasha sad as he tried to calm down.

"I see…Inuyasha do you trust me?" Kagome asked.

"Of course I do…wait why?" Inuyasha asked.

"Sango, Miroku…stand back. Inuyasha please don't hate me." Kagome said as she began to let her demon blood surface.

"Why would I hate you?" Inuyasha asked as he stepped closer to her.

Kagome opened her eyes and showed off her sliver eyes. She lifted Inuyasha off the ground and forced his demon blood to run free however he was unable to move. She cut her hand and forced him to drink her blood. Inuyasha eyes returned to its golden color however the purple markings staid. She placed him down and said, "Sorry."

"Kagome…god how I love you." He said while surprising her and Sango.

"Inuyasha…I love you to." She said

"Miroku let's go and wait outside. We don't have to see this." Sango said as she dragged him with her.

Once they were gone Inuyasha cut his arm and place his wound over hers. Her eye's turned to a golden color as his and the strips that appeared on her check were a blue color. She smiled and said, "We can't finish this now…we have to help."

"I know…it's just…I…we better get going." He said before taking off.

"Don't worry…I feel the same way." Kagome said as she followed her soon to be mate.

Once they met up with Sango and Miroku they left together. Sango was carried by Kagome while Miroku was carried by Inuyasha. It was sunset now and when they reached the castle the sun was gone. Kagome was the first to enter while saying, "Let them go." in a dangerous growl.

"Ku, ku, ku…now we wouldn't want any one to get hurt do we." Naraku said as he eyed Kagura.

"What the hell do you want?!" Inuyasha growled in anger

"To see her surfer, wait where did those damn idiots go off to." Kikiyo hissed once she noticed that they weren't their.

"We didn't see them. I picked up on the barrier and then I guessed you were up to no good." Kagome hissed back.

"I guess they were just cowards all along." Kagura sated

"Indeed they were, now Kagome if you just hand over the jewel I will let them all live." Naraku stated as he turned to face her.

Once he saw her he went mad. He's body began to change. He now held red bloody eyes and had long tentacles. He was enraged at what he saw. Kikiyo eyed the both and finally realized it and when she did she too went mad. She was the first to yell, "INUYASHA, YOU WROTHLESS BASTARD! HOW DARD YOU CHEAT ON ME YOU MONGAL!"

"Save it you bitch. I know you've been with Naraku. Your scents are linked." was his reply.

"Kagura kill those two! She will pay for what she's done!" Naraku ordered.

"No!" Inuyasha yelled.

Kagome merely held Inuyasha back as Kikiyo lowered her barrier. Once it was lowered Kagura attacked. After the attack hit dust and peaces of the room were every where. Just as Inuyasha was about to yell at her he noticed the barrier ad that his brother and Rin were safe.

"You see Naraku…I will keep my family safe." Kagome hissed as she held Kikiyo in another barrier.

"You think I care…kill her see if I give a damn. All I want is the jewel!" he yelled at them all.

"Kagome what the hell is he talking about?" Inuyasha asked.

"My mother handed me a jewel to protect and I will do just that." She answered loud enough so that every one heard her.

"Ha…you think you can defeat me. Kagura kill the hanyou and leave her to me. And Kikiyo…I was going to kill her any way. After all the enemy of my enemy is my friend…at least until my enemy is dead." Naraku said evilly.

I never said I was going to kill her. Like you said…the enemy of my enemy is my friend." Kagome said as she let Kikiyo free.

"You no good lying son of a bitch!" Kikiyo yelled as she blasted Naraku with some purifying energy.

Naraku managed to avoid the attack barely by a hair. He moved behind Kikiyo and said, "Die you pathetic excuse for a miko." before digging his claws into her flesh. Naraku then moved to join Kagura's side. "Kill them all but her. I will handle the hanyou girl." Naraku ordered as he sat down.

But jus as Kagura was bout to attack she was thrown to the floor by impact of a strong weapon. Naraku turned around and saw Sango and Miroku ready to fight. He merely grinned and said, "Well looks like your not some worthless cowards."

"Sorry we're late…Miroku couldn't keep his hands to his self." Sango hissed as Miroku rubbed his head.

"Sango, Miroku protect Rin, Kagome let me get out of here." Sesshoumaru growled.

"Ku, Ku, Ku…you should assume that I didn't bring friends…Kanna!" Naraku yelled.

A white girl all in whit appeared next to Kagura. She held a mirror in her hand which glowed a bright white color. Before Kagome could say anything the wolf demon prince showed himself, along with some of his pack members. Inuyasha stood besides Kagome and said, "You're the coward, can't you fight your self you defenseless hanyou!"

"Naraku's a half demon?" Sango asked

Enough! I am not a worthless hanyou and I shall prove it!" Naraku yelled as he advanced forward.

"You will not get by me!" Sesshoumaru yelled as he attacked Naraku.

And so it began, Sango and Miroku were left to fight against Kagura to protect Rin, Kagome was left with the scentless and oni girl while Inuyasha fought against Koga. Sango stood by Rin while Miroku fought against the wind witch.

"You will pay for what you've done." Miroku stated.

"Oh, and you think you can make me pay. Ha! Don't make me laugh." Kagura hissed as she opened her fan.

"Rin…stay out of the way…I have to help Miroku." Sango said as she got ready to fight.

"I understand." Rin replied

"Kirara…stay with Rin." Sango ordered the small demon cat.

After the small cat transformed Sango took off to help Miroku. They then began to fight side by side as the rest continued to fight. Kagome looked at the small little girl and thought, 'What the hell is he up to? She has no scent or aura. It's like she's nothingness.' before she attacked. She threw her weapons only for it to be blocked and thrown back at her.

Sesshoumaru with drew his sword the Tokijin and attacked. Naraku merely put up a barrier and laughed. He's eyes became red with anger as he began to transform into his true from. The roof was torn off as Sesshoumaru took his dog demon from.

"Ku, Ku, Ku…one should always watch their enemy even if changing." Naraku stated as he was bout to stab Sesshoumaru from the back.

Rin watched in horror as she was bout to watch he mate be killed. Without a second thought she ran and took the hit for him, her mate. Sesshoumaru could smell the blood as it poured out. This caused his to turn back into his human demon from and watched Naraku's tentacle move from her body.

"Rin!" Sesshoumaru yelled in anger as he caught her limb body from hitting the cold, dirt cover floor.

"How sweet…it's time you join her." Naraku said evilly before attacking again.

"No!" a female voice was heard yell before Narakus's tentacle arm was cut off.

Naraku turned and saw Kagome sap the girls neck before catching her blood covered weapon. He watched in horror and anger ad he realized what she held in her hands. In her hands was a small jewel that was pink and glowed brightly. All eyes were on her now. Naraku grinned and said, "Well finally you reveal the damn jewel…hand it over." he ordered.

"And if I don't what then?" Kagome questioned.

"Then you will have the pleasure of watching all of them die." Naraku pointed out.

"Wind Scar!" a loud cry was hard as a bright blast hit Naraku.

"Dance of Dragon!" Kagura shouted.

Naraku was saved from the attack but Kagura was not. Sesshoumaru had ripped her head off in pure rage. Just as he was about to go on a murdering spire he felt the Tensiga pulse. He with drew his sword and turned to Rin. He could see the chains that were bonding to her to death. He struck the chains and watched as his mate came back to life. Kagome looked over at his mate and saw his blood covered body. She had an idea, "If I give you the jewel will you leave us in peace." She spoke.

"No Kagome don't! The Shikon No Tama is meant to be purified!" Miroku yelled

"The Shikon No Tama?" Sango asked

"Ah, so the monk isn't stupid. Well yes but with it I shall become more powerful and rule all of these lands." Naraku stated evilly.

"But will you let us live?" Kagome asked. 'Inuyasha…trust me please.' She told him mentally.

"Only if you promise to be my queen." Naraku said

"No, she's not going with you!" Inuyasha yelled as he got ready to attack, 'You better know what you're doing.' He replied

Kagome walked over to Naraku and offered him the jewel. The moment he touched the jewel it's once pure aura was corrupted and turned black. He held the jewel tightly before grabbing hold of Kagome. He wrapped his arm around her wais and said, "How about we leave this place my love? Or would you like this land as yours?"

"I would really like it if I could…well could we bring Kirara with us. She is so cute and could be useful." Kagome said.

"Sure…hand over the two-tailed cat." Naraku ordered.

"No!" Sango yelled.

Just as Naraku was about to grab the cat he was pushed back and attacked by Sesshoumaru. Sesshoumaru held his mates body as she rested. He glared at Kagome before saying, "If you chose to be with this bastard then so be it but you will leave my family alone!" he yelled the last part.

"Ha, what a weak family it is. Never the less I shall slip you apart." Naraku spoke as he continued his actions.

"Stay away!" Inuyasha yelled as he cut him only to be shocked by the fast regeneration.

"Ha…thanks to my new mate I'm going to be unbeatable." Naraku mocked.

"You whish! Hirikus!" Sango yelled

Note (sorry I don't know how to spell the name of sango's weapon. If any one knows please let me know.)

Naraku put up a barrier and blocked her attack. Sango's weapon bounced back and hit her. Before she could hit the cold floor her limp body was caught by Miroku. After laying her down he yelled out, "You bastard!" as he threw his scared sutras.

"Worthless monk." Naraku growled as he threw him against the tree. As Sesshoumaru began to fight Kagome looked over at Inuyasha and said, 'Ready?' 'Ready as I'll ever be' he responded before helping his brother. After growing tried of the two he put up a barrier and said, "Time for you all to die."

"You're the one that will die Naraku!" Inuyasha growled as he threw his weapon at him.

"Ha, you and what army you worthless mutt? I'm stronger then every demon in these lands." Naraku replied

"With me…the only person who is stronger then you." A cold feminine voice said.
