Naraku's End Pt. 3

I don't own Inuyasha.

XOXOXO

Just about everyone was trying their useless attempt at destroying Naraku and Kanna and freeing Yokunen. The reason why it was useless being that Naraku, as well as Kanna, combined both their powers and made one huge strong barrier and not even Kikyo's spiritual arrows or Inuyasha's red Tessaiga could break it. Yet still, the other's decided to attack anyway except for Sesshomaru who had sense enough to know it was useless like Kikyo.

However, that wasn't the only reason why he had stopped. The other reason being he couldn't concentrate. He didn't know why and he didn't understand it. For the first time in his long life Sesshomaru was confused and he didn't like the feeling. He had to get away from the fight and from everyone else for that matter.

He saw Kikyo staring at him and he sighed and said in a slightly less cold voice. "Keep things up and running here why I'm gone."

Kikyo smirked and said. "Leaving things to me and here I thought you despised…" Kikyo stopped when she looked at Sesshomaru and noticed that he looked weary. "Sesshomaru are you alright and where are you going?"

Sesshomaru couldn't tell her the truth and so he told her a lie. "I'm going to go and find something that can end this for good." He was then engulfed in a white light and he flew away at an astounding speed.

Inuyasha stopped his attack when he noticed his brother fly away and turned to Kikyo and asked. "Where's he going? I've never known him to run away from a fight. He says it's cowardly."

Although Kikyo knew that wasn't the truth that Sesshomaru told her she told Inuyasha what he had said. "He said he was going to find something to end this once and for all."

It was a good thing Inuyasha was so dense or he never would have believed what Kikyo said, but he did so he nodded and went back to attacking the barrier.

Kikyo let out a slight sigh of relief and looked over at the barrier that was entrapping the citizens of the village and it was then that she got an idea.

XOXOXO

Sango groaned and opened her eyes. Weird I thought I was dead since the last thing I remember was being crushed underneath that support beam. She looked around her and saw what appeared to be a village only it was barren and there was no sign of life present at all. It scared her a little. It was in perfect condition and there were no signs that it had been attacked. Wait a second if I'm dead shouldn't I be in the afterlife or something not in some village. Although I do look like myself with exception that I'm glowing a bright white and I'm transparent…almost like I'm a ghost or a…SPIRIT! That's it I'm a spirit! I must be dead but why am I not in the afterlife. Well enough thinking I should explore this place see if I can find out where I am.

Sango stood up and started walking through the village she saw almost everything that a village usually had inns, restaurants, houses, fields, the only thing missing were the people. She decided to keep looking, and look she did, in fact she looked so many times that she didn't notice that she had searched the entire village five times. Sango sighed and fell to the ground in a very ungraceful fashion and said with a sigh. "Well, it looks like there's no one here and I seem to be trapped since I…" whatever Sango was about to say was cut off when two beams of light, one white and one black, shot down from the sky above and onto the ground only a few feet away from her forming two glowing orbs, Sango stared in awe as the orbs disappeared and standing in the place of them were two beings that appeared to be children, but Sango knew they were not for they each had feathery wings only one had black ones and the other had white. One was a male and he had long black hair and red eyes and wore a scowl on his face, while the other was a female and she had long white hair and large golden eyes with a large grin on her face. They were total opposites.

Sango stood up on wobbly legs and gazed warily at the two beings and said cautiously. "Hello. Who are you two!"

The black haired male smirked and said in a cold voice. "I am Akutenshi an angel from hell sent to take you away from this place."

The white haired female frowned at Akutenshi and then turned back to Sango and said in a sweet voice with a smile on her face. "Don't mind him dear! Who wants to go to a drab old place like hell when you can go to a paradise called heaven, and I guarantee that its an infinitive times better place than hell is and will ever be. By the way my name is Shoujoutenshi!"

Akutenshi scowled at Shoujoutenshi and coldly said to her. "Why are you butting in anyway go back to your uppity heaven and let me do my job!"

Shoujoutenshi frowned and turned her attention back to her rival and said angrily. "How dare you, you outcast tell me a higher and much more holy being than yourself what to do. I have a job as well to win people's souls to heaven. I've sat back far too long watching you take people's souls to hell with you and I've had enough! If it's the last thing I do this person's soul is going to heaven!"

Akutenshi let out a frustrated growl and scowled at Shoujoutenshi and asked angrily. "Why the hell do you have to be so damn annoying!"

Shoujoutenshi gasped and said. "Oh my! You just cursed!"

Akutenshi scowled and said. "Of course you buffoon I'm an angel from hell not an upstart puritan angel from heaven like yourself. Do us all a favor and go home back to your safe and pure heaven."

Shoujoutenshi ignored him and turned back to Sango and asked with a smile. "So what will it be? Heaven."

Akutenshi smirked and said. "Or hell?"

Sango simply stared at the two beings confused yet before she could say anything more a booming voice from the sky stopped her. "Akutenshi you demon be gone from this place and tell your master I am not pleased!"

Akutenshi scowled at the voice and said. "Since when are you ever pleased with my master! Fine I'll go but I'll be back!" Akutenshi was then engulfed in the black light from before but instead of going back to the sky he evaporated into the ground.

Shoujoutenshi smiled and said. "Ha-ha! That's what you get Akutenshi!"

"And you Shoujoutenshi! One of my own angels I thought you would have known better than to stoop to his level." The booming voice said sounding disappointed.

"I'm sorry master but I just got tired of him taking all of those souls back to hell with him and so I tried to win some over to our side!" Shoujoutenshi said angrily.

"You dare raise your voice at me! Don't you see people choose to go to hell if they had said no they would have automatically went to heaven but it was their choice and who are we to stop them." The voice said firmly trying to get through to the angel.

Shoujoutenshi wasn't listening and she made one final point. "But master how are they supposed to know there is a heaven if you don't send a representative down to talk to them!"

The voice sighed and said. "It is because they should know of it and if they choose to go to hell it's their decision and we can't stop anyone from following their gut. Now enough of this return back to heaven immediately!"

"What about the girl master?" Shoujoutenshi asked the voice pointing to the still lost and confused Sango.

"Inutaisho will take care of her and besides she's a special case, and we haven't had one like her in a while." Said the booming voice.

"Why do you keep him in heaven anyway when he always defies and goes against your orders!" Shoujoutenshi asked confused.

The voice chuckled and said. "Although he disobeys me constantly and is a nuisance, he does it for good reasons and he has a big heart that is why I won't kick him out!"

Shoujoutenshi said no more she simply engulfed herself in a white light and flew upwards toward heaven.

The voice sighed and said to Sango. "He should be here shortly."

Then the voice was gone as well.

All Sango could say after the seen was. "What the hell!"

Then another ball of white light shot from the sky which caused Sango to pale and she said shakily. "Oh no not again." When the white light dimmed standing in its place was. Sango gasped. "Sesshomaru!"

XOXOXO

Sesshomaru soared through the air in deep thought.

How could I have been so stupid not to notice that Kagura liked no loved me! I mean it was blatantly obvious that even Rin noticed it. I just chose to ignore it. She was always coming to me and I know it was partly because she wanted me to kill Naraku for her and free her from him, but the other reason was because she wanted to be around me. I mean sure she meets the standards of the kind of mate I desire. She's strong, pretty, smart, and most importantly she's a demon. The question is do I really love her!

Before Sesshomaru could answer the question he heard the distant screams for help down in the still burning village. He flew down until he was above the rooftops of the villages, and when Sesshomaru was about to give up looking thinking it was a figment of his imagination he saw a single hut at the end of the village and the strangest thing was it wasn't touched by the fire and it was completely in tact. He landed softly on the ground and ran over to hut and looked inside.

He saw five people. A teenaged human who looked surprisingly like Akuen, a middle aged woman who looked to be in her twenties but Sesshomaru could tell by her scent she wasn't and she looked surprisingly like Akufu, a middle aged man who looked to be in his twenties as well was lying beside the woman. All three of them seemed to be dead. An old woman was also present in the hut along with a small boy who looked to be the same age as Rin and Sesshomaru noticed they were still alive and that they were only sleeping.

He was about to walk into it when the woman suddenly opened her eyes and said. "Wait! Don't come any closer! There's a barrier surrounding this hut and if you come near it it'll kill you!"

Sesshomaru stared at the old woman before asking. "What are you five doing in there and who put you there?"

"Well a guy, well more like a demon with long curly black hair and a glowing pale demon with long white hair who looked like a child but from their talks I gathered that the curly haired one was named Naraku and the pale one was named Kanna and I don't quite know why we're here."

Sesshomaru continued to stare blankly at the old woman and then he asked again. "Who are you five!"

"Well I'm Komori and this little boy here is my adopted son you could say since his mother was killed and I took him in. The young man over there is the prince of this Kingdom and the two middle aged people who look to be in their twenties are his aunt and uncle Saseko and Kachiki." Komori said staring at him as well and then she asked. "What are doing out here anyway? Can't you see this village is burning to the ground as we speak. You must go. We'll be safe here we're apparently important to this Naraku character."

Sesshomaru smirked and said. "Old woman you don't know me quite well. I'll go get you people some help. Just stay here. On second thought, where will you go anyway."

Sesshomaru was about to take off when the old woman stopped him again. "Wait young man are you an angel sent to help us!"

Sesshomaru who had his back turned to her turned his head slightly to the side and said with a smirk on his face. "I'm quite the opposite actually." With that said Sesshomaru broke off into a sprint headed toward the castle.

Komori watched him. "Mama." said a sleepy voice from down in her lap. Komori looked down and saw that Karei was watching Sesshomaru like she was. Karei continued. "Who was that guy?"

Kamori smiled at Karei and said. "He's our angel and he's going to rescue us Karei."

Karei smiled and nodded before he went back to sleep.

XOXOXO

"Sesshomaru!" Sango yelled in shock staring at the figure who stood quite far away.

The person only chuckled and with every step he took his laughter got louder and louder. He was so close to Sango now that she realized her mistake and saw that this was not Sesshomaru but an older an more mature version of him. Sango gasped. The man was right in front of her now and with her standing at her full height she barely even reached his shoulder he had to be at least seven feet. Sango gulped and asked him nervously. "W-w-who a-are you?"

The man grinned and said happily. "I am Inutaisho!"

Sango gave him a blank look and asked. "Am I suppose to know you?"

Inutaisho still wore a grin on his face and said. "Well no, but I have been sent down here to guide you back to the living world since it wasn't your time to die. You see you are in limbo a place where restless spirits and spirits who were not meant to die so early, such as yourself, come. You see it is my job to guide spirits back to the living world or help them with their restlessness whatever the situation may be. However, no one's came here since Midoriko and that was over a thousand years ago, so I got lazy and it wasn't until the boss told me that we had someone in limbo that I got on my job. I'm sorry if I caused an inconvenience."

Sango shrugged and said. "Ah forget about it, but if you don't mind me asking. Why do you look so much like Sesshomaru?"

Inutaisho dropped his grin in favor of a smirk and he said. "I am his father of course."

Sango's eyes widened and her jaw dropped. "Then that means you're Inuyasha's father as well!" Sango got down on her knees and bowed and said. "I'm sorry for my disrespect earlier I meant nothing by it!"

Inutaisho chuckled and said. "Get up Sango there is no need to bow in front of me because I am no longer a demon lord. Instead you should be bowing in front of my eldest son."

Sango quickly got on her feet and said with a blush. "You see...about that...well-um..."

Inutaisho chuckled some more and said. "No need to worry dear I was only kidding. Now come we have two stops to make before we can get you back to earth."

Sango gave him a confused look and asked. "Aren't you straying away from your job. You aren't supposed to make stops are you?"

Inutaisho smirked once again and said. "Didn't you hear the voice? I never do what I'm told without doing a little something of my own now come, we have go see Midoriko. She lives close by here and I promised her I'd bring you to see her."

Sango could only nod wordlessly and watched as Inutaisho opened a portal and walked through Sango following him closely behind.

XOXOXO

Back on Earth Sesshomaru had just arrived at the front gates of the castle where two of Naraku's demon puppets stood watch. When they saw him they immediately attacked him but he simply destroyed them with his lethal poison claws. He pushed the gate open with great force catching the attention of everyone present including Naraku himself. Inwardly Sesshomaru cringed and thought to himself. Damnit why didn't I make a less conspicuous entrance! Oh who am I kidding whether I came by foot or I flew I still would have been noticed. Oh well I better milk the cow for all she's worth.

Sesshomaru dashed over to Kikyo and said coldly but quietly. "Come with me. There are some people in the village that need help and they are obviously important to Naraku because he put up a barrier and I can't get to them. I need to use your spiritual powers to break it so we can rescue them."

Kikyo smirked and said. "My, my, first you ask me to take care of things while you're gone and now you need me to help you. What has gotten into you Sesshomaru!"

Sesshomaru growled and said angrily but still quietly. "Are you going to help or not! I've never known you to leave people in danger."

Kikyo sighed and said. "Fine but it's only for to help those people. How am I going to get there fast enough?"

Sesshomaru glared at her said. "I've already got it thought out." Sesshomaru turned to his two headed dragon and said. "AhUn come!"

The two headed dragon flew over quickly to his master's side exposing the scared Jaken who had hidden behind it. Sesshomaru either didn't notice or ignored him since he didn't even spare him a second glance.

Sesshomaru then looked around for the two tailed cat demon and noticed that she was standing in front of Rin and Ayame obviously protecting them and thought to himself. Although she is protecting Rin and the annoying wolf demon's mate-to-be I'm really going to need her. They'll be fine for right now Naraku isn't even focusing on them.

Sesshomaru walked over to Kirara and said to her what he said to Kikyo. Kirara growled at him, she was still angry at him for letting her master get killed like Inuyasha was. She knew it was selfish of her and it wasn't really his fault but she couldn't help herself. She sighed and seemed to nod her head and she followed Sesshomaru over to where Kikyo and AhUn were standing.

Sesshomaru stared at Kikyo blankly and without any warning he quickly grabbed Kikyo and sat her on Kirara's back and non to gently I might add. He smirked at the shocked and angry Kikyo and turned to Kirara and said. "Go to the village and wait for me there."

Kirara flew into the air with a nervous Kikyo on her back.

Inuyasha, who had stopped his attack in favor of looking at Sesshomaru, glared at his older brother and asked angrily. "Where did you take Kikyo and Kirara Sesshomaru! If you plan to hurt them then I'll kill you!"

Sesshomaru sighed and asked his brother in a dull monotone. "Why must you be so idiotic? They went of their own free will and besides why would I kill a two-tailed cat demon and a human, oh my apologies, I mean a deadhuman priestess."

Inuyasha growled and said. "You bastard! Take that back!"

Sesshomaru smirked and said cruelly. "It's a little thing called the truth little brother and you'll have to learn to live with it, and besides you've got a real live girl that travels with you yet you settle for a deceased replica. How foolish, and when I thought you couldn't get any stupider you go and prove me wrong."

Inuyasha growled and ran blindly toward Sesshomaru his anger getting the best of him.

Sesshomaru smirked and quicker than the eye could see Sesshomaru had drawn Tokijin and used it to block the Tetsaiga from striking him he then kicked Inuyasha hard in the stomach knocking the wind out of him. Inuyasha gasped and fell to the ground somehow landing on his back. Sesshomaru still smirking, stepped on his stomach quite hard and said cruelly. "You're pathetic. Yet, you're finally in your place, beneath me, and here's a little piece of advice little brother. You being with a dead woman is only a dream. She's nothing but a meager shell of the person you once knew and fell in love with. I suggest you get over her and find someone else because dear brother," Sesshomaru bent down with his foot still on Inuyasha's stomach and whispered in his ear. "She'll be the death of you." Sesshomaru stood up and took his foot off Inuyasha's stomach and laughed cruelly and said with a smirk. "And we don't want that now do we."

Sesshomaru called AhUn and the two headed dragon immediately flew to his master's side. Sesshomaru sheathed Tokijin and hopped on AhUn's back with grace and looked down on his brother and said. "Think about what I said little brother and you'll see that I'm right. Just like I always am."

With that said Sesshomaru pulled AhUn's reins and the dragon and Sesshomaru flew into the air and disappeared out of sight.

Kaede walked over to Inuyasha who had sat up and put her hand on his shoulder and said solemnly. "What he said…"

"Was the truth. You people don't tell me truth you always give hints to tell me you disagree with me when I see Kikyo, but Sesshomaru was truthful and he's right. I'm a fool to ever think I could be with a dead person when I'm clearly alive." Inuyasha said knocking Kaede's hand off of his shoulder and he stood up albeit shakily and ran back into the two on two fight since Sesshomaru and Kikyo had left.

Miroku had listened to Sesshomaru's harsh words and they made him feel down.

XOXOXO

Kikyo, Kirara, Sesshomaru, and AhUn landed in front of the hut with the people inside. Both Sesshomaru and Kikyo hopped off the demons and walked over to the hut.

Komori opened her eyes to see Sesshomaru. "Ah young man I see you've returned," she looked over and saw Kikyo standing slightly behind him. "And this time I see you've brought a friend and priestess no less. She can break the barrier for sure."

Kikyo stepped forward and nodded at the old woman with a smile on her face. She drew a bow from her quiver and positioned in the bow and drew the string back before letting it go. It hit the barrier and it was visible for a second before it disappeared.

Komori walked out of the hut with a sleeping Karei in her arms and asked her two saviors. "What are we to do with the three unconscious ones in the hut."

Sesshomaru smirked and said. "AhUn! Kirara! Come."

Both demons obeyed and walked over to Kikyo because Sesshomaru had disappeared into hut. He came out a few minutes later with Kiyoraka in his arms. He continued this process until all three of them were out of the hut and placed on AhUn's back. He then turned to Kikyo, Komori, and the sleeping Karei. "You three will ride Kirara back to the castle you should be relatively safe there."

Kikyo got on Kirara's back first, then Komori placed the sleeping Karei on her back afterwards, and then finally Komori got on as well. Ah Un had already taken off but Kirara had not by the request of Kikyo who turned to Sesshomaru and asked. "You're not coming back to the castle?"

Sesshomaru gave her a blank look and said. "No I still have things left to sort out but like I said earlier keep things up and running while I'm gone. I'll be back soon! Kirara go!"

Kirara flew into the air with a worried Kikyo looking at Sesshomaru his image getting smaller and smaller as they caught altitude.

XOXOXO

"Um, Inutaisho, where are we! We've been walking for hours down this same path aren't you getting tired because I sure am?" Sango asked the ex-demon lord as she walked beside him.

Inutaisho grinned and said. "Sorry I didn't realize you'd get tired because since I'm completely dead I don't get tired as for you I imagine you would, oh and this is the road to Midoriko's home its in limbo but it's so far away and close to hell's gates that no one hardly ever goes there."

Sango turned to Inutaisho and said in a quiet voice trying to keep her anger at bay. "Inutaisho wouldn't it make more since to just make a portal and teleport us to Midoriko's house!"

Inutaisho sweatdropped and smiled nervously looking down at the furious young human who was standing beside him since they had stopped walking and said sheepishly. "You're right sorry about that once again."

Sango sighed and said. "Inuyasha is definitely your son as well both of them are. Inuyasha does stupid things like you just did all the time, but if he didn't do those things he wouldn't be Inuyasha. Don't worry about it just open the portal and we can step in, go see Midoriko, and get out."

Inutaisho nodded in agreement and opened a portal and both he and Sango jumped in.

Midoriko's Front Yard…

Sango and Inutaisho stepped out of the portal and found themselves face to face well Sango found herself face to face with a woman in samurai clothing with long black hair and stern yet soft brown eyes. She stared at Sango and said in strong yet feminine voice with a slight smile on her face. "Hello Sango I am Midoriko your ancestor and I'm sure you've heard of me. Unfortunately this visit must be made short because we only have a few minutes to stop Naraku." Midoriko held both arms straight out and opened her hands and an arrow appeared in one hand a bow in the other. She gave them to Sango and said. "This is an arrow made personally by me and only my descendents can use it and that is my bow."

Sango gave her confused look and said. "I'm sorry to disappoint you Lady Midoriko but I have no spiritual powers."

Midoriko gave a full blown smile and she said. "Of course you do dear they're just dormant because your mother died before she could tell you about them and hid her powers from your father therefore he never knew about them. Now go! The way to awaken your dormant powers is to believe in yourself and they'll awaken and you'll be able to shoot the arrow but be forewarned once you shoot the arrow you'll be zapped of strength and you could possibly die and if not by that you'll be crushed because with all the spiritual power in the arrow it's bound to destroy that entire castle and you right along with it, either way you'll die. Are you prepared?"

Sango smirked and said. "I've always been prepared for death and if means destroying Naraku I'll gladly sacrifice myself if it means the end of that creatures pitiful existence."

Midoriko smiled and nodded and said. "Now that's the answer I'd expect to hear from my descendent."

Inutaisho who had left during their conversation came back carrying an arm and a ring and said. "Here Sango take these. I want you to give this ring to Inuyasha it's to keep his demon nature in check so that way if he looses Tetsaiga he won't transform and the only way he can is if he takes off the ring. I also want you to give Sesshomaru back his arm he should be able to attach it back to his flesh." Inutaisho then turned to Midoriko and said. "It is time."

Midoriko nodded in agreement and she began to chant some sort of ancient spell and soon a very large portal appeared in front of her only this time she could see the home where she was killed and inside of it she saw her still and lifeless body along with Sesshomaru sitting beside her just staring at her body. Sango gasped. "What is Sesshomaru doing there!"

Inutaisho smiled sympathetically and said. "He feels guilty about your death and although it isn't his fault he thinks it is. It's another thing to add to the growing thoughts inside his head that are slowly driving him insane."

Sango gave him a confused and asked. "What do you mean about the thoughts in his head are slowly driving him insane?"

Midoriko decided to speak up then. "Although Sesshomaru may seem cool, calm, and collected on the outside on the inside he has thoughts and conflicting emotions that are slowly driving him insane."

Sango gasped and said aloud. "I never knew god I feel so stupid. I mean yes I knew he had problems but I didn't know they were this severe."

Inutaisho and Midoriko looked at each other with the same sympathetic smiles on their faces and Inutaisho said. "Now go through that portal and your spirit should go back into your body. Destroy Naraku once and for all."

Sango nodded and jumped through the portal with the ring and arm in hand.

"You think she can do it Midoriko?" Inutaisho asked the woman.

"What kill Naraku? Yes, she is a descendent of mine after all." Midoriko said proudly.

Inutaisho shook his head and said. "No, not that. I mean you think she can get my son out of his emotional wreck before he joins us here."

Midoriko smiled and put a comforting hand on his shoulder and said. "Of course she will Taisho just wait and see."

XOXOXO

Sesshomaru sat in the hut looking at Sango's still form. He wasn't going to admit it to anyone but he felt guilty about her death. He thought it was his fault because he thought he could have done something to prevent it. He had contemplated using Tenseiga to bring her back but he thought about what she said about how she wanted to die and decided against it. Sesshomaru sighed and said to himself. "Why the hell am I feeling so guilty usually I wouldn't even think about the death of human but now…"

Sesshomaru didn't finish his sentence because he thought he saw the still body of Sango move but he dismissed it as his imagination but then the body groaned and opened it's eyes. Sesshomaru hurriedly leaned over the body and looked into the brown eyes of Sango.

Sango looked into golden eyes her vision was a little blurry and she at first thought it was Inuyasha but she realized that these eyes were colder and meaner and she remember that Sesshomaru was in the hut. She sat up and threw her arms around Sesshomaru's neck crying hard and she said. "I am so sorry Sesshomaru I never meant to make you feel guilty about my death, but it just felt right at the time to sacrifice myself for that baby's life."

Sesshomaru was shocked for a number of reasons. The first one being that the girl that was killed was alive and he didn't use Tenseiga to bring her back, said person was crying on him, and finally the person who was human was hugging him. If he wasn't Sesshomaru he would have blushed but like I said he was Sesshomaru. Instead he opted to push her off of him but softly and he said. "How can you be alive I saw you die and I didn't even use the Tenseiga to resurrect you?"

Sango smiled and said. "Well I did die but I went to limbo a place where spirits who died before their time or restless spirits go. Anyway I ran into your father and let me tell you he's a nice guy although he is a little on the goofy side and he helped me get back to earth. Oh and I ran into Midoriko and she gave me an arrow that will kill Naraku once and for all. Oh and that reminds me." Sango reached over to her side and got the arm she had discarded when she hugged Sesshomaru and held it out to him and said. "Your father gave it to me and he said that you should know how to put it on and well I know how much you wanted it back so there it is."

Sesshomaru raised his sleeve and took the arm from Sango and placed it on the nub he closed his eyes and his hand that was holding the arm to the nub glowed a bright white for only a few seconds before it died down. He took his hand away and his arm was surprisingly back to normal stripes and all. He looked up and saw a shocked Sango and asked her. "What?"

"You have spiritual powers I didn't know demons had those let alone dog demons." Sango said shocked.

"Well my mother was a moon demon and she had spiritual powers but they're extinct now and dog demon's are as well with the exception of myself and I guess Inuyasha too." Sesshomaru said with a frown.

"Right, well we have to go I need you to give me a ride to the castle so I can destroy Naraku once and for all." Sango said standing up.

Sesshomaru nodded and bent over much like Inuyasha would do and said. "Get on."

"You're actually going to let a human ride on your back!" Sango asked the demon lord shocked getting onto his back.

"I'll gladly let you ride my back if it means destroying that creature's pitiful existence." Sesshomaru said coldly dashing through the village much faster than Inuyasha.

Sango laughed to herself much to the confusion of Sesshomaru. "Is something funny?"

"No, it's just that I said something similar a little while ago." Sango said with a smile.

Sesshomaru didn't say anything he simply continued running through the village with Sango on his back.

XOXOXO

Sesshomaru landed on the castle rooftop soundlessly with Sango on his back and they hid in the shadows.

Sango got off of his back and set on the rooftop while Sesshomaru opted to stand observing the pointless fight below.

"That battle is absolutely pointless. They're merely wasting their energy." Sango said shaking her head sadly at the fight below.

Sesshomaru nodded his head agreement and said. "It seems Kikyo managed to find a way to break that barrier and let all of those people out. Although they still can't escape it's good that they're at least free. It seems Kikyo's reincarnate and the monk have joined in the fight as well."

Sango sighed and said. "Fools, but I have destroy Naraku and soon but I'm going to need your help. I need you get everyone out of here and destroy all the two demon puppets at the front gates."

Sesshomaru smirked and said. "And what makes you think I'm going to follow your orders?"

Sango smirked and said. "Well if you want Rin safe you will."

Sesshomaru sighed and said. "I already took care of them."

Sango was shocked but smiled and said. "Good. Now I need you to go and get all of those people out of their and snatch me some of Kikyo's arrows while your at it two will do."

Sesshomaru sighed before jumping from the rooftops and into the courtyard below.

Courtyard…

Sesshomaru landed gracefully on the ground in front of everyone he looked around at all the scared and shocked faces and smirked and said. "Well, well, it seems you've been busy while I was gone. I would chat longer but I need to tell all of you that this castle is going to collapse and unless you have a death wish you'd leave…NOW!"

The villagers screamed and ran like rabid dogs towards the now free exits.

The only people left were the cast from the Inuyasha series who weren't so willing to leave or believe Sesshomaru.

"Why the hell should we believe you Sesshomaru!" Inuyasha asked his brother suspiciously.

Sesshomaru smirked and said. "Usually you shouldn't but I don't lie and I most assuredly wouldn't lie about something like this."

The other's agreed and they soon filed out everyone but Kikyo that is.

"Kikyo I want two of your arrows." Sesshomaru said looking at her expectantly.

"Why?" Kikyo asked the demon lord suspiciously.

"I have my reasons now hand them over before I'm forced to take them." Sesshomaru said coldly glaring at her.

Kikyo sighed but complied and gave him two arrows from her quiver before she quickly scrambled off.

Once Sesshomaru was sure everyone was gone but Sango, Naraku, Yokunen and himself he jumped back onto the rooftops where Sango was waiting.

"Here you are two arrows what are you going to do with them." Sesshomaru said coldly holding them out to her.

Sango accepted the arrows with a smirk and said cockily. "Watch and see."

Sango took the first arrow from Kikyo and put it in the bow Midoriko had given her and aimed and let it sore through the air. It glowed a strange green color before it hit the barrier destroying it instantly.

She loaded the second arrow from Kikyo into the bow and aimed and let it sore through the air just like the first time it glowed a strange green color and hit Yokunen in the stomach he convulsed and both Sango and Sesshomaru watched as the two tainted souls evaporated from his body and flew away seeking there bodies and the once large Yokunen shrunk down to a normal size and became unconscious.

"Did you kill him!" Sesshomaru asked Sango emotionlessly betraying the nervousness he felt on the inside.

"No, I simply released the tainted souls in his body and now he is no longer under Naraku's control." Sango said.

Sesshomaru nodded and said. "Well this is it. This is where we take him down. Are you ready?"

Sango nodded and said. "Yes, but you need to get out of here if you don't you'll be crushed because when I shoot this arrow this whole castle down and it's taking us with it."

Sesshomaru smirked and said wryly. "I already know that, but I refuse to let you die again and I at least have to try and prevent it from happening. If not well I'll go down with you, because I wouldn't be able to live with the guilt of knowing that I let you die the a second time."

Sango was shocked to say the least to say the least but she couldn't and she thought to herself that this is how Sesshomaru must of felt when I gave my life up for the baby's. She sighed and said. "Alright, but I'm still okay with this but I know I can't change your mind."

Sesshomaru nodded and smirked and both he and Sango jumped off of the rooftop and into the courtyard below where both he and Kanna stood looking the for the assailant responsible for ruining their plans.

Courtyard…

Naraku watched as two figures jumped down from the rooftop of the castle and onto the ground below and started walking closer to him and when they got close enough he realized that it was Sesshomaru and…Sango.

Naraku gasped in shock and asked shakily. "How can this be you died and when you die you can't comeback unless your soul is put into a clay body like Kikyo's was but you are clearly alive."

While Naraku pondered this he didn't notice when Sango had gotten the arrow and placed it in the bow and aimed for his heart before launching it through the air. When it made contact with his heart Naraku let out a howl of pain and the whole entire castle and all of its surroundings were engulfed in a bright white light before it was gone. The castle and the surrounding area began to crumble.

Sango uncovered her eyes from when she shield them from the blast as did Sesshomaru and they watched as both Naraku and Kanna disappeared into the air gone permanently from this world. Sango didn't miss the soul that escaped from the mirror and headed towards its body much like the other two souls from earlier did.

When she was sure that everything was as it should be Sango fell to the ground face first her spiritual powers did drain and she was slowly drifting away back into the eternal sleep called death. She felt herself being turned over and she came face to face with Sesshomaru.

"What happened? Why did you fall out like that?" Sesshomaru asked her emotionlessly although he was panicking on the inside.

"I didn't tell you this but when I used that arrow from Midoriko it drained me of all my spiritual powers and because of that I'm going to die but you have to get out of here or you'll be crushed." Sango said weakly.

Sesshomaru was about to say something when he noticed the castle was falling on top of them. Acting quickly he picked up the half dead Sango and threw her over his shoulder and zoomed quickly over to Kohaku and threw him over his other shoulder. He looked around for shelter and saw the whole made by Kohaku and ran over and hopped in it quickly. Just as the castle crumbled and right on top of the whole he had hidden in.

He then sighed and looked around thanking god that there were lit torches and he was able to see and what he saw almost made him sick to the stomach. A bloody and dead Kagura and acting quickly he drew Tenseiga and watched for the demons from hell and when he saw them he cut them and watched as Kagura groaned. He then turned to the lifeless boy and took the jewel shard from his back before he did the same thing he did to Kagura and the boy groaned as well.

He finally walked over to Sango and placed his both his hands on her chest and his hands began to glow a bright white color and so did her body. He was giving her some of his spiritual energy it wouldn't affect him much and he would live since had had a lot of spiritual energy he just concealed it. It had taken him years to learn how but he mastered it. When he felt a steady heartbeat he took his hands off of her chest. She didn't wake up but he knew she'd be okay.

Turning around he saw a confused Kagura and Kohaku looking at him. He smirked and said. "Well I brought you two back to life now its time you return the favor. Kagura I need you to use your dance of the dragon technique to get rid or the rubble covering that hole and once that is done I need you to clear us a path to go to the others. As for you Kohaku just stay close."

Kagura although still confused nodded and you used her dance of the dragon technique and the rubble cleared away from the hole.

"Kagura use your feather to fly out and Kohaku get on with her and you two fly out of here and Kagura continue to clear a path, Sango and I'll follow soon after." Sesshomaru commanded.

Kagura was adamant about leaving her love as was Kohaku about leaving his sister but they each agreed and Kagura and Kohaku flew out of the whole.

Sesshomaru sighed and reached down and picked up the sleeping Sango in his arms bridal style and looked down at her and said. "You have been nothing but trouble since I met you, but I can't say I ever you regret meeting you."

Sesshomaru smirked and jumped through the hole with the sleeping Sango in his arms.

Village…

In the village everyone was stumped. First of all the thought to be dead Kachiki, Saseko, and Kiyoraka were alive and mourning over the loss of their kingdom. On top of that the whole castle glowed a bright white before disappearing and after that the whole place went down and no once could get back in.

It wasn't until the thought to be dead Kagura and Kohaku came flying out of the debris at first they thought they were there to fight but come to find out they were just as lost as they were. The fact that Kagura told them that Sesshomaru and Sango were alive also added to the confusion they felt.

Just before Inuyasha was about to go in and look for them Sesshomaru came walking down the path with the still sleeping Sango in his arms.

"You bastard what did you do to her!" Inuyasha yelled angrily.

Sesshomaru only sighed not in the mood to fight and gave Sango to Inuyasha and said. "I believe this belongs to you. Keep her I don't want her."

With that said Sesshomaru started to walk away Rin, Jaken, AhUn, and the newest member Kagura following him.

"Wait Sesshomaru tell us what happened before the castle collapsed." Inuyasha yelled wanting to know.

Sesshomaru sighed and nodded his head and told everyone what happened when he was done he bid the people farewell and he and his new crew headed west apparently headed back to his lands and castle. Pretty soon they were out of sight.

Inuyasha looked down at the woman in his arms and he could hardly believe she took down Naraku. He turned to his group with the added addition of Kikyo and Kohaku and said. "Come on you guys let's go back to Kaede's village and rest up."

"Wait mutt we're coming with you." Koga said with Ayame following closely behind him.

Inuyasha nodded and he took off with Sango in his arms. Kohaku, Kaede, and Kagome rode Kirara and Kikyo rode on Miroku's back while Shippo was on his shoulder. Koga and Ayame following closely behind them.

Two weeks later: Kaede's Village…

Sango groaned and opened her eyes and looked into the large golden eyes of Inuyasha.

"Hey, you've been out for two weeks. I was starting to think you'd never wake up." Inuyasha said softly staring at her. "We all heard what you did from Sesshomaru and we're glad that he's gone for good now."

Sango sat up and turned to him and asked. "What's been going on the two weeks I was out?"

"Oh well, Kagura and Sesshomaru are together and they're headed to the Western Lands and to Sesshomaru's castle along with Rin, Jaken, and AhUn. Koga and Ayame stayed to see if you would be okay before they left to get marriage preparations underway as well their tribes. We completed the jewel shard and Miroku made a wish on it to make Kikyo alive again and when the wish was done the jewel was no more and Miroku confessed his feelings to Kikyo as did she and now they are together. Kohaku is back and he's trying to come to grips with what he did to everyone. Finally, I sent Kagome home there was no need for her to be here anymore and so she's gone and she can't come back. Shippo was distraught but he's getting over it."

Sango nodded taking all of this in and said. "Wow it seems everyone has someone but us what's with that?"

"You see about that Sango I have something to tell you that I've been keeping from you and after all that's happened and me I realized I'd have to tell you now." Inuyasha said seriously.

Sango nodded and said. "Okay Inuyasha. What is it!"

Inuyasha swallowed hard and said. "Well you know that mystery girl I was telling you about well, it's you. I've loved you since the very first time we met three years ago but I was too busy obsessing over Kikyo and Kagome to realize it. I know you may probably reject me and that's okay but I just tell you!"

Inuyasha's reply was a kiss at first he was shocked but then he returned the kiss hungrily and it was soon filled with passion. The two broke apart and Sango said. "I've been in love with you since the very first day I met you but I realized you loved Kagome and Kikyo so I settled for Miroku. Inuyasha you don't know how happy you've made me. I love you so much! Oh and here this a ring from your father he said to keep it on at all times it'll keep your demon nature in check if you were to loose the Tetsaiga."

Inuyasha nodded and accepted the ring and put it on his finger. He didn't even bother asking her how she got it from his father. Some things he just didn't need to know.

Sango wrapped her arms around Inuyasha's waist and leaned snuggled into his chest and said softly. "I love you, Inuyasha."

Inuyasha wrapped his arm around her waist put his chin on top of her head and said with smile. "I love you too, Sango."
