"Hiei" Kagome sighed as she snuggled into her pillow, she was used to not seeing Hiei for months at a time but knowing that he was right next door was killing her. She didn't notice when a pair of strong arms encircled her and held her close.
"I am here mate" He whispered to her as she turned and buried her head in his chest. He simply held her.
"Hiei, I'm scared" She whispered softly to him.
"Of what love"
"I'm scared I will die this time. I almost died last time, it was Hitaro-san who saved me" Kagome said softly
"I won't let you die Kagome," He said softly
"Promise me something Hiei"
"Anything"
"Do not interfere with my fight with Naraku, I have a feeling that if you do I will lose you." She said softly looking into his red eyes.
"I will not interfere if you let me take the half-breed that tried to kill you." He said softly.
"Alright, I will take Juuromaru out this time, the others I need." Kagome said softly as she hugged him grateful. With that they kissed and fell into a blissful sleep together.
"Welcome once more! It has come down to the final day and you have three teams left, Team Onigumo, Team Urameshi, and Team Higurashi!" The announcer spoke smirking "Now, our first match is between Team Urameshi and Team Higurashi"
"Kagura you fight Jin, Souta you will fight the idiot, Kanna Yusuke, Hakudoushi take Kurama, I will fight Hiei" Kagome said "Juuromaru you sit this one out, we'll need you against Naraku"
"Yes Kags your every wish is our command" Juuromaru said smiling as he bowed mockingly watching as Kuwabara walked into the arena.
"You can do this Souta; remember our training with Midoriko-sama" Kagome said smiling at him. He nodded and stepped onto the arena floor with no apparent weapon. Kagome smiled at him as Kuwabara charged at Souta who simply stood there head down. It wasn't until Kuwabara's sword reached him that Souta produced his spirit sword a dark blue in color and blocking Kuwabara's. He smirked and blasted him out of the ring. It took all of two minutes for Souta to defeat him. Kurama stepped up next and Hakudoushi smirked joining him. Kurama blocked his mind before Hakudoushi could find anything and was quickly defeated. Jin walked up next smirking as Kagura was his opponent.
"Fighting wind with wind" He asked smirking.
"No," Kagura said knocking him out when he wasn't paying attention.
"That was hilarious Kagura; you beat him in one hit"
"Rule number one never get distracted" She said shrugging watching as Kanna and Yusuke entered the arena together. They smirked as Kanna tripped him before trapping him halfway in a void so that he couldn't attack her. She then proceeded to dye his hair various colors much to the amusement of her team mates.
"Kanna I do believe that you have one that round" Kagome said smirking as Kanna let Yusuke go before appearing next to Hakudoushi. Kagome walked into the ring with Hiei.
"Hn" He said smirking at her. They both withdrew their weapons getting ready to battle each other. It seemed at first neither was willing to move both assessing the other. Then Kagome made the first move charging at him her sword raised high. They fought for a good while neither seeming to be able to defeat the other. They were matched for skill in swords man ship and speed which amazed his team mates. Kagome smirked softly as she allowed Hiei to knock her sword away an hour later. "Never let me win again mate"
"I have a bigger battle next Hiei, using all my strength on you would prove foolish," She replied glad no one could hear them. The announcer shocked at the skill level she had seen finally snapped out of it.
"AND THE WINNER IS TEAM HIGURASHI!" She announced brightly. They had an hour to do what ever.
"You guys rest and eat, spend anytime you wish with the ones you love, I hope this will not be the last you see of them" Kagome said to her team as they huddled together. "Juuromaru, I'm pulling you to our reserve fighter, Souta you're out of this one, I don't want you hurt alright. Stay with mother and the children"
"But Kagome who is our other fighter?" Kagura asked shocked.
"Hiei, it's the only way I could keep him from interfering. Now Kagura I need a favor from all of you. When I battle Naraku, you are to keep Hiei out of my barrier, even if I am dieing. If he interferes he will die and I can't deal with that, you know what will occur if I die, don't let him die" Kagome said softly.
"We won't child, now I am going to inform the panel of our team change" They turned to see that Estella had joined them. She hugged Kagome tightly. "Do not die this time child; we can only hope what happened last time will occur again."
"I'll try mother," She said before turning to hug Keiko who had walked over.
"Kagome what is going on?"
"I might die in this fight Keiko. Naraku is a strong ruthless opponent, I can not afford to underestimate him" Kagome said softly. "If he kills me, I will come back don't worry about that"
"I trust you Kagome," Keiko said hugging her.
"Keiko, if something was to happen during this battle give this to Hiei," Kagome said softly handing her a letter.
"I will Kagome" She said softly as the announcer stood once more. The team had gathered none of them had moved from the arena. They stood together waiting for Naraku's team to appear.
"We know our plan, correct." Kagome asked looking at each other.
"Yes, but what if they pull in everyone?" Rin asked coming to stand next to Kagome.
"I have faith you can defeat them Rin-chan, after all Midriko trained us all" Kagome said softly smiling at Shiori and Rin.
"Team Onigumo what are you're rules" One of the ancient lords asked standing.
"We will fight one on one, all eight members of the team will participate, and we will choose our opponents. All fights are to the death" Naraku said smirking at Kagome.
"Very well" The lord said sitting down. A tall woman in a nurse's outfit, with long red hair and red eyes.
"Juuromaru will be my opponent" She said smirking as he walked over to her. She attempted to trap him in force fields but every time he fazed out of them. Eventually he got behind her and stabbed her through the heart.
"Stupid spaghetti lady" He mumbled walking off stage.
"Funny that's what Yusuke called her as well" Kurama said smiling. They were watching from the arena floor. Next a rather short red haired male, with red eyes and blue markings on his face walked up.
"I choose the little boy" he said sneering at Hakudoushi who calmly walked over. As soon as he entered the ring and the announcer let them start. Rando was withering on the ground in agony. Finally while Hakudoushi laughed he sliced him in half. A beautiful woman with silver hair and turquoise eyes walked in next. She was wearing dark purple and black miko garb.
"I choose the little princess of the west" She said smirking. Rin walked into the arena smiling.
"It has been a very long time Tsubaki" Rin said creating a barrier around herself as she drew an arrow and shot it at Tsubaki. The battle raged as both discarded their bows and moved onto their powers. They were amazed when Rin turned into a large silver dog and snapped Tsubaki in half. The next to enter the ring was a short old lady with big brown eyes holding a large pot.
"I choose the little bat girl" She croaked smirking sadistically.
"I have to fight the clay lady!!!" Shiori said disgusted. "This is so unfair, Rin got a good fight"
"Just go Shiori." Kagome said as the woman walked into the arena. She defeated the little old lady within two minutes. A short woman with long sea green hair and red eyes walked into the arena. Kagome looked to Yukina when she gasped. Then to Hiei whose eyes were wide.
"I choose Hiei" She said. Kagome noticed how much she looked like Yukina. Hiei walked onto the stage rigid.
"Yukina what is going on?" Kagome asked softly.
"Our mother" was all she had to say of Kagome to look around for Kanna.
"Kanna point you're mirror at the woman on stage" Kagome said before looking into it. She saw Hiei but no woman.
"He's using the unmother" Kagura said softly.
"Indeed he is" Kagome said smirking as she opened a link with Hiei. 'Love, it is not you're mother, that much I know, this is a demon called the unmother, born of the souls of grieving women' She told him. He then smirked and killed the demon with no problem.
"The void child" The priestess who walked into the arena looked almost identical to Kagome, she waited as Kanna walked on stage and stood in front of her. Before Kikyo could move Kanna had turned her mirror. The crowd gasped as not one but many souls escaped Kikyo's body. When Kikyo fell to the ground Kanna closed her mirror trapping the souls. The watched once more as Kikyo's body turned to dust and one last soul escaped returning strait to Kagome's body. She smiled finally complete. Finally the silver haired demon walked onto the arena.
"Kagura, you're mine" He said glaring at her. There fight was long and difficult. But Kagura ended up knocking away his sword and ripping his body to shreds with her wind attacks. She limped off stage and landed in Jin's arms in a dead faint. Yukina and Keiko immediately began to heal her wounds as Kagome and Naraku met in the middle of the arena.
Well there it is! The Battle has begun! Oh and sorry I'm so crappy at writing battles....Oh well you just get to use your imagination! Hope you Enjoyed!
