As the smoke cleared, Lelouch found himself pressed into a corner by the tremendous power of Naraku. Naraku sneered as he watched Lelouch kneel on the ground, holding his eyes in pain.

"Why isn't my Geass working?" Lelouch wondered as he tried to shake away the burning sensation. "What's going on here?"

"I expected you to be stronger than this Lelouch," Naraku stated as he held out his left palm. "But it seems we have reached the climax of this pathetic situation that doesn't deserve the name battle. Say goodbye to your second true love Kikyo." Kikyo gasped as Naraku sent a concentrated stream of miasma into Lelouch's face, Lelouch coughing as the miasma entered his blood stream. Lelouch held his neck in pain as blood ran down his chin, Lelouch's eyes looking quite blood shot at this point. Naraku chuckled as InuYasha intervened, taking a giant slash that almost took Naraku's head off. But Naraku easily dodged as Miroku undid the beads that kept his Wind Tunnel at bay.

"It's over Naraku!" Miroku screamed as he held out his palm. "Everyone get behind me now!"

"Don't you ever learn you foolish monk?" Naraku asked as he snapped his fingers, the sound of bees coming from afar. Miroku grimaced as he knew what that sound meant. He placed the beads back as he stepped away, knowing he couldn't risk getting poisoned at this point in time. Sango stepped in for Miroku as she sent her giant boomerang at Naraku, Naraku's barrier easily stopping it.

"Is this it?" Naraku asked as InuYasha growled angrily. "I expected this much from your human companions InuYasha, but you as a half breed should be able to do something."

"Enough of your games Naraku!" Lelouch spat as Naraku looked over at him in surprise. Lelouch held his chest as more blood leaked from his mouth, Kikyo running behind him and placing her hand on his back.

"What is this?" Naraku asked as he looked at Lelouch with widened eyes. "What is occurring with your eyes right now?"

"Go away from this place and never bother us again!" Lelouch screamed as his Geass activated, Naraku's mind now under the power of Geass.

"I will do that then," Naraku replied in a daze as he called back his bees with some type of cocoon and fled from the scene. Lelouch's head slumped as he passed out, Kikyo looking at him in shock.

"Lelouch, are you OK?" Kikyo asked with obvious panic in her voice. InuYasha looked at her in surprise, never seeing her like this before. Kikyo fell to her knees, holding Lelouch within her arms as she wept softly.

"Lady Kikyo, he is still breathing!" Miroku shouted as he pointed to Lelouch's chest, which was moving up and down at a very slow pace.

"We need to get him back to the village so we can treat him immediately!" Kagome shouted as she looked over at InuYasha, who snickered.

"I'm not taking this idiot nowhere!" InuYasha exclaimed as Kagome growled.

"Sit boy!" Kagome screamed as InuYasha slammed into the ground. "We'll just take Kilala since InuYasha is in the ground..."

"You put me in the ground..." InuYasha moaned as he rubbed the dirt off his face.

"Lady Kikyo, will yo be joining us?" Miroku asked as they placed Lelouch on Kilala. Kikyo was looking off in the distance, spotting a woman with bright green hair watching them intensly.

"I'll arrive a little later," Kikyo answered as she walked into the direction of the girl. Kagome and Sango exchanged glances as they all boarded Kilala and traveled back to the village.

"Who are you?" Kikyo asked as she looked up in a tree, the girl standing on one of the branches.

"My name is C.C," the girl answered as Kikyo looked at her with confusion. "Me and Lelouch have had interactions in his past."

"What type of interactions?" Kikyo asked suspiciously, thinking these two might have been lovers.

"We were business partners in a way I suppose," C.C answered as she looked up into the clear blue sky. "You must pass this message onto Lelouch when he awakens. His Geass will not be the same within this era, it will advance even beyond his own power. He must learn to master his Geass, along with his own spiritual weapon that he must possess in order to defeat Naraku."

"How do you know of Naraku?" Kikyo asked sharply as C.C snickered.

"I know of what I observed only minutes ago," C.C replied as Kikyo looked at her suspiciously. "Lelouch has been given another chance of redemption by those who are higher power than ourselves. It seems they think of his sacrifice as nothing, so he will be tested once more before he can obtain eternal peace."

"What is this spiritual weapon that he must obtain?" Kikyo asked as C.C nodded.

"A weapon of great magnitude that will allow him the power to slay any demon that crosses his path," C.C answered as Kikyo gasped in shock. "But only by mastering his new Geass and awakening his "true" self, can he obtain this weapon from within himself."

"Who is his true self?" Kikyo asked. C.C didn't reply, jumping from the tree and looking Kikyo directly in the eye.

"Once you learn of Lelouch's true self, you will witness the power of a emperor," C.C replied as she turned away, walking away from Kikyo. Kikyo only watched as there was nothing left to say. The only thing that could be done was wait until Lelouch was awake and give him this message.

When Lelouch awoke, he found himself within a comfortable bed, InuYasha, Kikyo, Kagome, Shippo, Miroku, and Sango all looming over him.

"InuYasha, you are such a brute!" Kikyo shouted as InuYasha grunted, Lelouch taking in that he must have missed one hell of a conversation.

"I have to agree InuYasha, you have no feelings for situations that call for them," Miroku chimed in as InuYasha growled at him, Miroku looking at InuYasha with an uneasy grin.

"Kikyo, how could you just forget about me and start dating this human?" InuYasha asked as Kikyo looked away.

"I have no interest in you anymore InuYasha, I am not the same woman I was when I had actual flesh and blood," Kikyo muttered as she looked down at the ground. As Kikyo looked down at Lelouch, Lelouch closed his eyes, pretending to still be asleep.

"Why does it even matter InuYasha?" Sango asked as she looked over at a very depressed looking Kagome. "Kagome has been here for you and you give her nothing for it! You are just so boneheaded you can't even see what is right in front of you!"

"I understand that, but I can't just let go of what happen 50 years ago!" InuYasha screamed, looking down at the ground in embarrassment after screaming.

"So that is how you feel huh?" Kagome asked as InuYasha opened his mouth to speak, but looked down at the ground instead.

"This might prove to be interesting," Lelouch thought as he listened silently.
