Chapter Twenty-Seven:
Kagome's heart was racing as she started to run towards the village. She had no other choice and she wasn't about to let anyone hurt innocent people not even Inuyasha. "Kagome slow down." Miroku was running with Shippo trying to keep up. Sango was running step for step with Kagome. She felt her friend needed her by her side as she faced him. "Kagome look out." Kouga jumped past Kagome taking with him an arrow. Kagome stopped as from the smoke of the fire Kikyou in a short blue dress walked out.
"I will have that ring now." Kikyou smiled as she took a step towards Kagome. "I don't think so." Kagome stood tall as she was searching beyond Kikyou. "Where are you?" Kagome watched Kikyou move as though nothing could touch her. "Take this." "Sango no!" Kagome tried to stop her but Sango tossed her weapon at Kikyou. Kagome then felt the hairs on the back of her neck start to stand. "He's coming." Kagome pulled Sango back as her weapon was stopped by the demon in red. Inuyasha held the weapon then turned to the girls. "How dare you attack my lady." Kagome pulled back on Sango's arm as Inuyasha turned to face them holding the large boomerang. "Run!" Kouga screamed as Inuyasha used his demon strength to toss the weapon back at Sango. Kagome and Sango ran as fast as they could but the weapon hit Sango in the back pushing her into the dirt. "Sango! Come on get up." Kagome stopped as she pushed the weapon off her friend and tried to pull her off the ground. Sango was out cold and Inuyasha wasn't done as he was walking towards the two. "Kirara help!" Kirara came running to Kagome as she pushed Sango up onto her back. "Get her away from this I will distract him." Kirara roared as she took off into the sky.
"You can't get away from me on that cat." Inuyasha jumped into the air ready to dig his deep claws into the demon cat's back. "Hit the mark!" Inuyasha stopped his attack as an arrow hit him in the shoulder. He came down his eyes burning with hate as he eyed the girl standing before him. "Your one stupid girl to want to take me on." Inuyasha let his nails grow long as he started to approach Kagome. Kikyou stood watching Inuyasha act as if Kagome and the others were nothing.
As Kagome had Inuyasha's attention Kouga and Miroku ran into the village to stop the fire and save anyone Inuyasha hadn't slaughtered. Miroku found three kids hiding in a barn. They were covered in the blood of their dead parents who lie before them. "You must leave this place before that demon comes back." Miroku took the kids by the hand and took them to the edge of the woods where he left them with Shippo. Kouga ran around putting out the fires. As the two looked around the damage was unthinkable. Their friend did this and now he was after them. Kouga and Miroku hear the scream of Kagome and started to run to her.

Kagome was doing the best she could at fighting back Inuyasha and his claws. Kagome used her bow to block the deadly claws coming at her face, her spiritual power flowing through her as she pushed the demon back. "Inuyasha don't you know who we are?" Kagome's eyes were filling with tears, as she could see in Inuyasha's eyes no sign that he knew who she was or what she meant to him. Kagome tried to move away from him but he was too fast and landed a hard punch to her right arm. Kagome screamed out in pain as she could feel the bones in her arm snap with the blow. She took a step back as Inuyasha licked his fingers. "Your blood is sweet." Kagome took another step back when she felt a hand on her shoulder.
"Inuyasha you need to fight this. Come on its us, your friends and Kagome." Miroku was trying to talk to his friend as Kouga looked at Kagome. He could smell the blood and he could sense the broken bone. Miroku wasn't getting anywhere with Inuyasha the three of them started to back off. "Come on you mutt snap out of it." "I am going to kill you all then I am going to drink that sweet blood of your girl." Inuyasha jumped ready to attack. Kagome was thinking they needed a way out. "SIT!" The words just came out. The beads lit up and Inuyasha came crashing to the ground. "SIT, SIT, SIT, SIT, SIT, SIIIIIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTTTTTTTT!" Inuyasha was now so far into the ground that you could barely see his red kimono. He was also out cold as Kirara came running to pick up Miroku. Kouga took Kagome as they ran to Shippo and the three kids. "We can't leave them here. They need new homes so we have to take them with us. Shippo smiled as he transformed into a large fox and the three kids jumped on. The group ran out of site as Kikyou was looking down into the hole at her unconscious boyfriend.

Kagome and the others found themselves in the village late that night Kagome's arm was pulsing with pain so she went into Kaede's hut and to her bag. "My dear what happened to you?" "It's a long story but Inuyasha is under the power of the jewel and attacked us." Kagome was so blunt that Kaede knew that her heart was in pain. "I see her let me help you with that." Kaede helped Kagome put on a bandage on her arm and then make a sling. Kagome then brought the three kids inside to meet Kaede. "They need new homes. Do you know of anyone who might wants kids?" Kaede's eyes light up at the three little kids. "I do." Kaede took the kids and they walked down to the rest of the village where Kaede gave the kids to a couple who were having trouble having kids of their own. They were so happy that they took all three in as if they were their own flesh and blood.
Kouga stood by the door with his ears up listening for anything abnormal. Sango was sitting on the ground wrapping her chest, as her back was all purple. "We need to think of something that could protect us a little from Inuyasha." Kagome looked out the door then looked back at her friends. "We need to take tetsusaiga away from him." The room went silent why would taking Inuyasha's sword help them. "He wont be able to use it but I can. It will want to protect me and that it will even against Inuyasha." Kagome was trying to get up only to find that it was harder than she thought. Kouga walked over and helped him up. "So how do we get the sword?" "Do what we do best hurt his ego and make him draw it. Once he finds that it's useless the demon Inuyasha will toss it like the junk he thinks it is." Kagome smiled a little as she thought about when they first worked with Inuyasha. He really could be stubborn and never think about what he was doing. They just needed to act like they know better than him. "So your saying we need to treat him like we did when we first met." Kagome nodded at Miroku as he was helping Sango up. The night air was bringing a strong scent of fire and anger. "They're coming on us fast."
Kagome and the others ran out of the hut fast and ran towards the clearing near the well. Kagome ran in the middle with Sango as Kouga and Miroku ran around them Kirara ran above them as Shippo held onto Sango. They could see the well in the moonlight when a figure ran past them. The grouped stopped when they could see the red kimono jumping from tree to tree. Kikyou laughed as Inuyasha was circling around them. "You didn't think you would be able to get away from us for long no did you?" Inuyasha landed in front of the group as Kouga and Miroku moved to block him from Kagome.
"Remember he may not know us but we know everything about him. Push his buttons and make him drop that sword." Kagome spoke for only her friends to hear. Kouga and Miroku took a deep breath as they looked at their friend. "I am going to rip you all to shreds." Inuyasha was about to take a step towards them when Kouga started to laugh and made him stop. Kouga stood tall allowing his demonic power to flow and engulf him in his power. "How dare you try and pass yourself off as a full demon. You will always be a half-breed to me. How dare you threaten me." Kouga screamed at Inuyasha as he hit the ground. The ground shook under Inuyasha's feet making him jump into the air when he did Miroku released some of his prayers. The paper stuck to his arms then he felt a shock run through his body. "What?" "You're a fool Inuyasha always running into battles before you think." Inuyasha was starting to lose his anger as he looked at the two men before him. He was so blind from his rage that he didn't sense the boomerang that sent him flying into the tree. As he hit the jewel started to glow black. "We have him." Kagome stood in front of her friends. As Inuyasha was looking at her Kikyou jumped into a tree, she knew that Inuyasha was going to blow them all away.
"I am going to teach you all a lesson." Kagome smiled as she looked at her friend. "You don't have the guts to take us all out at the same time." "You want to bet?" Inuyasha pulled tetsusaiga. Kagome and the others didn't move and Kikyou started to laugh they were going to get wiped out before Naraku could have any fun with this. "Time to die. Wind Scar!" Inuyasha pointed tetsusaiga forward but nothing happened. "What's wrong demon I thought you were strong enough to wield that thing." Kagome smiled, as Inuyasha's face was getting red. He tossed the sword to the ground and cracked his knuckles. Kagome smiled as her plan worked; as Inuyasha was coming towards them Shippo ran behind and took tetsusaiga. "I am going to pull your guts out girl." Inuyasha started to run at Kagome only to be met with a wall of friends.
Kagome took this time to step back and wait for Shippo. As Inuyasha was trying to push through Kouga and the others Shippo came flying over them landing in Kagome's arms. "Here.' Kagome took the sword in her hand and it started to fill with her power. "This is going to work." Kagome looked up as Inuyasha used his claws to push all his friends out of the way. He was now only inches away from her face, his claws covered in her friend's blood. "I am going to kill you little girl." Inuyasha was about to take hold of her neck when his sword released a wave of power sending him flying back into the tree. "I will say this because I still love you. This sword will protect me from you. I will be almost untouchable with it." Kagome took a step closer and Inuyasha was pushed into the tree deeper. "So I would take Kikyou and go back to Naraku!" Kagome had to be mean it was the only way to insure he would get up and leave. He did just as she wanted and took Kikyou and ran off into the woods. Kagome started to breath again as she walked over to see how her friends were doing.

Kagome walked into the little hut as Kaede sat holding a bag. "Kaede do you think we can bet Naraku now that Inuyasha is on his side?" Kagome was looking down at the ground as Kaede looked at her. "I want you to know that you can defeat anyone who comes into your path. You and the others only need time to heal and train." Kagome looked up realizing that Kaede was right and she knew just how it could be done. Kagome walked out to meet her friends who were coming to find her. "Looks like he went back to Naraku I haven't been able to pick up his scent in a while. "I checked on the town and it seems to be fine." Kagome smiled at Miroku and Kouga. Shippo and Sango looked at her arm then at her face. "We need to go into hiding for a while." Everyone stopped Kagome wanted them to run away from what was going on. "We have no where to go." Sango tried to point out. "Yes we do and we can protect this town while we are gone." Kagome looked down at the little town that was like her home. "If we fight like this we will lose and many people will die because of it. If we can heal and build up our power we will be able to get him back." Kagome hoped they couldn't hear the fear in her voice. "Okay so where do we go?" Kagome smiled as Kouga looked at her.
Kagome took hold of an arrow and walked down by the well. "I need to fill this with as much power as I can." Kagome sat down holding the arrow as tight as she could. Kouga and the others sat around the well keeping a look out. Kagome closed her eyes and let her mind take over. She could see Inuyasha, as he once was kind and loving. She then went to him now full of hate and anger. The arrow started to glow bright pink as she continued to let her mind see Inuyasha as he was now and back then. Finally after a few hours and the sun was starting to rise once more Kagome got up holding the arrow. She walked into Kaede's hut to find her waiting for her. "I made this to protect the town while we are gone." Kagome handed Kaede the arrow as she took her bag. "Where are you all going?" "A place where they can't follow." Kagome smiled as she held the bag with her good hand and walked out. She walked back to the well where the others were still waiting.
000000000 Kaede took the arrow to the middle of town and placed it into the ground. The power inside the arrow started to flow into the ground and then around the village. The pink light created a large barrier that allowed those inside the village to go in and out but it would keep those who wanted to cause harm out. Kagome and the others could see the light from where they sat and smiled. "Ready to get going?" Kagome handed the bag to Kouga as she pulled herself up onto the well. Sango put Kirara in her hands as she took Kagome. Miroku held to Sango as he held Shippo. Finally Kouga took hold of Miroku as Kagome jumped into the well. They followed and the pink light circled around them all as Kagome lead the path to her world. After a few moments the light cleared and they looked up to see that the sky was blocked from view. Kouga jumped out with Kagome as the others climbed out. They looked around to find that they were in Kagome's world. "Now to make sure that they will not follow." Kagome took her last arrow and held it for a moment before tossing it down the well causing her light fill the well. They walked out the door and into the sun, as they felt safe for now.
