Chapter 16: Training and a devious plan

---Previously---

----With Rin and Shippou----

Cold air washed over them as they woke. The bodies were trembling as they felt the cold chains on their hands. Shippou looked over at Rin with weak eyes. "We have to get out of here." Shippou said with a raspy voice. Rin nodded. Kohaku came into the room, his eyes were dull and emotionless. "My master has sent me to take care of you..." Kohaku said with a shallow voice. He brought two bottles of water up to them and forced them to drink it. They both struggled, thinking it was some kind of poison.

They finally gave in and felt the cool water wash down their dry throats. They drank greedily. Rin look down at Kohaku with sorrow and love for the boy in her eyes. She wanted to free him, but she knew that she would have to get them out of here first and without that jackass knowing. She knew he was watching, so she would send a fake image up through that fuck up that mirror of Kanna's.

----Northern castle----

The morning came quickly and everyone got up and went to the north garden. "We are leaving to the alternet universe for training." They all looked at Kagome with aw. She then went on to explain what it was and what it could do. Kagome left and they followed her down a dark hall and up to large door. She opened the door and in a flash of light they appeared in the same hall but it was entirely white with gold trim on the edges and designs on the walls. Kagome showed them around the entire castle. Walking down the hall to they came upon two large doors. Kagome open the door and walked into a large room with various weapons aligned on the wall.

"This is where we will train." Kagome said.

---Now---

Sango and Miroku looked in aw at the sight of the room. It was huge! Every weapon you could think of was there. Some had an unnatural glow to them, like blue flames licked the blade with ferocity. Kagome smiled at their widen eyes. "You should prepare. We start at 12:00 P.M., which is an hour from now." Kagome said looking at her watch. Sango and Miroku nodded. "Kagome where can we get ready?" Sango asked. "Through those doors." Kagome said pointing to the right of the room, where two large doors stood. They walked to the two doors and left the room.

An hour later they came out all ready for battle. Sango had on, instead of her normal slayers out fit, midnight black armor, the shoulder blades showed spikes pointing up into a flame design, slowly turning into a glass like blue. Sango also wore a deep ocean blue kimono under her armor. Miroku had silver armor on with various spikes that slowly turned glass green. He wore under the armor a green kimono with a forest design. Kagome smiled. "Pick your weapons." they nodded and rushed over to the enchanted weapons, all the while looking closely at the weapons to determine their enchantment.

Sango picked or more like it picked her, a large Katana. Slayer written in gold on the blade. It held the power to purifie and threw flaming blue blades. Her other weapon was a large silver boomerang able to cut through anything and never dull. Miroku picked out a long silver staff with a large emerald on the top and silver spikes encircling it. With it he could summon aeons of all sorts. He was about to go when a large blade caught his eye. Its hilt had a design of a dragon on it followed by a tale wrapping around the large blade. He touched the blade and it glowed an eerie green. He knew it had picked him for its master. The sword can send acid attacks and can heal the fallen.

Kagome smiled at their choices of weapons and armor. With these new developments the final battle will be a hole lot easer, but still difficult. Miroku and Sango walk over to their teacher and companion.

"Where ready."Both Sango and Miroku said at the same time.

Kagome nodded and said " Miroku you will train on your summoning and holy powers. Sango you will train on you fighting, transforming and holy powers."

Sango got into her fighting position. Kagome did so as well and got ready to attack. With swift speed Kagome slashed out at Sango, Sango barly dodge Kagomes attack. And raised her sword to attack. This went on for half of the day and Sango was quickly adjusting. Kagome then trained them both to focus and channel their holy powers. And teached them new attacks.

At the end of the day Sango and Miroku where panting at the hard work. They said their good night's and left for bed.

---Rin and Shippou---

Rin had told Shippou what they were going to do and how to do so. Kohaku was told by his master that he would keep watch on them and take care of their needs, though he could not hear them he saw their mouths gently move, silently, he wondered what they were up to but let it go without worry. Soon they put their plans into motion. Hoping it would work properly and without failure.

Rin smiled at Kohaku and called him over to her and gently whispered in his ear. He shook his head and Rin pretended a small sigh and then slowly not to alarm him, looked in the direction of where she sensed Kanna's mirror to be at and then gently sent a fake image of Shippou and herself sleeping and Kohaku slowly dosing off. Rin, hoping they would take the bait slowly turned to Kohaku and motion him to come over to her yet again.

Rin slowly struggled with taking away the control Naraku had on Kohaku without him noticing. After a few minutes the control Naraku had on Kohaku slowly ebbed away. Kohaku's eyes slowly filled with life again, the dullness slowly slipping away. Kohaku's memories of killing is family came back with a vengeance and soon the forgotten pain washed over him.

Kohaku crumbled to the floor weeping. He Killed his own family, His own sister... If only... He slowly got up and looked a the people chained to the wall in front of him. Rin looked down at him and beckoned him closer to herself. Rin gently touched his cheek and cupped it gently. She slowly closed her eyes and took his pain and sorrow away whispering all the while to him that it was not his fault and that his sister was still alive and well with her mother.

Kohaku looked at Rin with tears streaming down his face. He nodded, His words choked in his throat for his gratitude towards her. Smiling Rin told him to loosen their shackles around their wrist. Nodding he did so. Then Rin went on to tell him not to let Naraku know that he was out of his control, to let his dull look come back. It was hard at first but it worked.

"Now all we have to do is wait."

Years seemed to pass in the time dimension that the shard hunters have luckily came upon. In those long years, they trained hard, in hopes of getting stronger. The weapons that the group of shard hunter have acquired have help them immensely, soon they would be leaving the time dimension and returning to their own dimension. Soon they would end the ongoing battle for the Shikon no tama.

Sakura petal's fell gentle into the calm, cool pool of water below, floating gently in the water. Kagome watched the cool pool of water below her and look at her reflection, she had changed so much, from a scared little school girl, too a strong fierce warrior. Soon the final battle would be at hand and she would have her children back. She left to collect the others, to leave this place and go back too their own dimension they called home.

Kagome, Walking gracefully back into the tall castle, soon too come upon the dinning room. Everyone had collected in the room to eat their last meal before the final battle. They sat their in silent union. After their meal, they walk to the door that would bring them home. Slowly everyone walk through the two tall, double doors and in a flash of white light, appeared home, to their own world. Down the hall appeared Kagome's dad, Sora. With the letter clutched in his hands. The all gracefully walk down the hall, towards Sora, all prepared for battle and with their hands clutched to their own weapons.

They would need to call upon Kouga for back up, knowing the large army that awaited them.

"Father, we need to call upon reinforcements, Maybe Kouga and Ayame tribes?" She spoke in fluid voice.

Sora just smiled. " I've already sent for reinforcements and have called upon my personal army, to back you guys up."Sora happily spoke.

"Do you know when they can arrive?" Kagome asked , a little worried.

"They should be here in a matter of hours at the least" Sora spoke calmly.

Nodding the group left for the arrival of Kouga and Ayame tribes to come to their aid, with their aid and that of Sora's army, the final battle would be a little easier for them all. At least they would be more focused on Naraku and his detachments, instead of the endless army of Youkai that Naraku possessed.

Soon Kouga and Ayame army arrived at the scene. With Sora's army too soon follow after. All gathered around Kagome as she chanted the spell, spreading it out so it would both engulf them and the army to Naraku's castle.

Kagome: Runs out of house Screaming that Bob the penguin was chasing her, While readers stare at her like she had her head bitten off.

Bob the penguin:"GET HER!": Millions of Penguins file out of the house. And everyone sweatdrops and does an amine fall. ---- ()
