DISCLAIMER: I do not own Inuyasha!

I love this story! It's my first fanfic ever and I hope it's doing good! I just wrote another fanfic about Bleach and I'm wondering if i should post it up! Please leave a comment to tell me yes or no!

In the morning everyone was up except for the Hanyous who were still asleep in the tree. Kagome was in Inuyasha's arms and both were sleeping peacefully. The others were eating some fruit while cleaning up the campsite. Miroku suggested that they wake up Inuyasha and Kagome, but Sango convinced him that if he did that Inuyasha would end up beating Miroku to a pulp for waking Kagome up.

Because Shippou knew Kagome wouldn't let Inuyasha kill him, he decided to go wake them up. He hopped up the tree and landed on Inuyasha's shoulder. "Inuyasha! Psssst! Inuyasha! Wake up!" Shippou whispered. Ears twitching, Inuyasha opened his eyes and grabbed Shippou by the tail. "What the hell do you want runt?" Inuyasha said a little too loudly. He hit Shippou on the head not realizing Kagome had been awoken by Inuyasha's yelling. "Inuyasha..." Kagome said in that certain tone of voice a woman gets when she's angry at someone. 'Oh Shit!' Inuyasha thought.

SIT!

BAM!

*insert Inuyasha shaped hole in the ground*

"GAAAAHHH!" Inuyasha groaned after landing on the ground 20 feet below where he used to be in the tree. "What the hell was that for wench?"Left eye twitching Kagome glared at him. 'Oh for the love of...I just had to call her that' he thought to himself. "Inuyasha...SIT! SIT! SIT! SIT! SIT! SIT!" Kagome yelled. When she was done there was a five foot deep Inuyasha shaped hole in the ground. "Humph" was all Kagome said as she walked past him to the rest of the group. Shippou and Miroku were laughing while Sango was just smiling. "Sorry to wake you two but we just wanted to get started on our journey again...We've had a few...unpleasant...delays." Sango said as Kagome approached her. "Oh no problem Sango" Kagome said, "It's not your fault Inuyasha's a bakka." Kagome side commented mostly to herself.

"You know I can hear you! Unlike humans I have good hearing!" Inuyasha yelled from his hole as he tried to get out.

After the gang was done packing they headed out on their trip to gather more jewel shards and try and find Naraku. There was only about four more jewel shards to collect the two in Kouga's legs, the one in Kohaku's back, and then there was one that was probably in the forehead of some weak demon. Kagome was looking at her hair, claws, and markings that were visible to her at the time wondering why they didn't go away after she went hanyou again. From what she could see on her hair, there were really cool neon green highlights in a very dark midnight blue. Her claws were sharper and longer along with her fangs. She had purple slash like markings on her forearms and wrists. Her ankles and part of her leg had a blue marking swirling around them; almost like a ribbon wrapped around her legs and wouldn't let go. Last, but DEFINATELY not least, she had a tail. 'Wait! Hold on a sec! I have a freaking tail?' Kagome thought to herself. She swished it into her hands so she could feel its texture. It was soft and fuzzy. 'Wow, it feels just like a plush animal!' she cheerfully thought as she stroked her midnight blue tail with a neon green tip. 'Wonder why Inuyasha doesn't have a tail...'

Inuyasha was keeping a good eye on Kagome and his surroundings after they had to take a dirt path through a forest. 'Stupid forest...I shouldn't be worrying so much. I'm right here so if anything happens I can protect Kagome' He thought almost bumping into the topic of his thoughts. "I sense a shard of the Shikon No Tama!" Kagome said. "Finally! Something to do!" Inuyasha said excitedly. "It only feels like one shard in a weak youkai, so it shouldn't be that exciting" Kagome said calmly. "Keh, who cares? At least I get a little bit of exercise besides walking." Inuyasha stated as a snake youkai came into view.

'This is almost going to be too easy' he thought. Inuyasha charged towards the snake youkai ready to attack. "It's in its forehead!" Kagome yelled. On that comment, Inuyasha stuck his claws right into the weak snake's forehead, pulling out a jewel shard. The snake's body evaporated. "That was too easy" Inuyasha said tossing the shard to Kagome. She was smiling. "You know what this means right?" "Uhhhh...that we have one more shard?" Inuyasha said stupidly. "No you silly bakka! It means that we have all the shards except for the ones that Naraku, Kouga, and Kohaku have. We can go fight Naraku and take his part of the jewel, get the other ones, and finish the jewel!" Kagome said. Everyone in the group was excited; the battle against their worst enemy was going to be soon. They could finally all get their vengeance, or in Inuyasha's case now, only the rest of the jewel. No emotion was left for Kikyo except anger and hatred. She had refused to help Kagome when she was about to die.

A FEW DAYS LATER

Kagome, Inuyasha, Shippou, and Kirara caught onto Naraku's cent and had been following it for a couple of days. They were so close that Kagome could now sense his demonic aura. Almost as if it appeared out of nowhere, Naraku's huge castle was sitting about 200 yards in front of them surrounded by a barrier. Inuyasha simply used his red Tessaiga to cut through the barrier.

It took them about 10 minutes to make it to the large courtyard where Kagome could sense Naraku's aura. As soon as they entered the empty courtyard, a large barrier went up around the enter thing. 'Damn!' Inuyasha thought. Just then, they all heard a slight laughing coming from the other end of the large courtyard. Naraku. "It's so nice of you to find the rest of the jewel shards for me. All I need is your half and the jewel will be complete. Sango's and Kagome's eyes went wide while Shippou, Kirara, Inuyasha and even Miroku were growling. Next to Naraku were two badly beaten and bloody bodies. "You BASTARD!" Sango yelled as she started to shed her tears for the loss of her only family member. "What did you do to Kohaku!" She was sobbing now.

Kagome was just plain angry. "NARAKU!" she yelled, "You will pay for what you did to Kohaku and Kouga!" She dashed forward out of anger. "Kagome wait!" Inuyasha shouted. Too late. "SACRED SLASH!" She screamed as she sent her deadly attack forward. It didn't leave a scratch on Naraku at all. He shot miasma at Kagome, sending her into a coughing fit. She couldn't see. Naraku shot out one of his creepy vine arms and made a cut on Kagome's left arm. Inuyasha had pushed her slightly out of the way so he could take the blow but Naraku slightly changed the course of the arm, therefore giving Kagome a cut. "WIND SCAR!" Inuyasha yelled as the Tessaiga released the attack. It cut off a few of Naraku's vine arms, but that was all. Kagome went back to the rest of the group and kept shooting scared arrows, while Miroku was throwing sacred sutras at the poisoness insects that were always around Naraku, Shippou was using his fox fire to help Miroku, and Sango was throwing her Hirikotsu at Naraku while riding on Kirara's back. "ADAMANT BARRAGE!" Inuyasha shouted as his sword transformed into a large aqua colored diamond and shot off hundreds of deadly shards. "Augh!" Naraku gasped as a few of the shards hit his chest. The jewel in his body instantly regenerated the missing parts of his body.

Inuyasha was the only one making progress on hitting Naraku, along with Kagome who kept most of the vine arms away from Inuyasha as he kept releasing Wind Scars and Adamant Barrages against Naraku. All of a sudden, Inuyasha's sword was knocked out of his hands and landed a good 60 yards away from him. Naraku shot out one of his vines and sent it straight through Inuyasha's stomach. "GAAAH!" He screamed as he started to bleed. Several more vines came and left deep cuts all over him. Without his sword, Inuyasha couldn't contain is youkai. When he was about to die in battle, his youkai would take over. "INUYASHA!" Kagome screamed DON'T TRANSFORM!" Growling could be heard everywhere.
