Kagome's POV
I sighed they were all sleeping peacefully, Kaede was as well. I guess i can clean up a little... there's nothing to clean though i thought. Jewel shards! Naraku! Oh no!"Kaede! Naraku's in the village! Kaede!" I yelled as i picked up my bow and arrows and aimed it at the door standing protectively in front of the children. Kaede got up as fast as she could and grabbed her bow and arrows, putting up a barrier. "We must work together if we are to survive." Kaede told me and i nodded not taking my eyes away from the door. "Mother?" "Kagome?" "Mama!" the kids called me. "Listen to me, Both of you stay close to me and Shippo i need you to pick up Yuri. Be quick, Naraku's only toying with us and i don't know what he'll do next... and Shippo if something happens to me or i tell you to take the girls and Kaede and find Inuyasha." The roof began to shake crack. "Kagome!" Kaede yelled. I turned quickly facing the children, leaning over them to keep any wood from hitting them we ran to her. "We have to stay together!" I shouted trying to make my voice heard past the shattering roof. "Ye must run, take the young ones and flee!" She yelled i could see the panic in her eyes, hear it in her voice. Just like that the roof was gone, Naraku was smirking at us. I shot him and my arrow hit him in the chest creating a giant hole. He attacked then destroying the entire hut with his tentacles. "Go away!" I screamed at him, shooting another arrow this one hitting him in the neck. "I killed Kikyo, i wonder if i should kill you to..." he captured me and i screamed as i tried to fight him but it did no good. "SHIPPO RUN NOW!" i yelled as loud as i could. Tears were running down my poor kitsune's eyes as he handed Yuri to Rin and transformed, Kaede and Rin getting onto his back and he fled. I glared at Naraku and shoved one of my arrows into the tentacle that had me, it incinerated causing him to hit me with another one slamming me into the stairs that led to Kikyo's grave. "Stupid girl you will never win." He laughed and i could hear the villagers screaming and running for their lives. "Inuyasha will kill you." I told him, hoping that i could distract him enough so that the villagers would be safe. I tried to ignore the pain and realized that my hands and left side were bleeding. "Inuyasha will never be able to kill me." I don't think i'll be able to fight to much longer
Inuyasha's POV
"Inuyasha will never be able to kill me." Naraku said as he laughed. I smelt Kagome's scent and her blood... she was hurt. "Adament Barage!" The adament riped him to peices leaving only his head. I fought with him for a long time unable to get past his barrier even though i was using red tetsusaiga, finally i was able to shatter his barrier and break threw causing a huge amount of damage before i got to Kagome's side. I was surprised that she was going to shoot and i reached out to stop her. "Hit his head." she whispered to me and i listened pulling my hand away. "Wind scar!" Kagome's arrow and my wind scar hit Naraku. Once i could see past the attack i noticed that the jewel was falling to the ground, I caught it, handing it to Kagome. "Where are the pups?" i asked once i realized that they weren't here.
Kagome's POV
"I had to send them away i couldn't fight him off, i sent them to find you" I cried. "Inuyasha please go find them!" i begged, i felt so pathetic because i couldn't even protect them. He rounded up a few of the villagers that had been unable to get past Naraku and told them to stay with me. "Priestess! Allow me to bandage your wounds." A young woman around my age said. "If you wish." I said not really caring about myself i just wanted to know for sure if the children were safe, i wanted them with me. She bandaged them and sat beside me. I noticed that they were all scared, i could see that the old people seemed to be very afraid. I understand why they act like this, after spending your entire live fearing demons that would come to kill you. I would probally be just like them if i hadn't met Inuyasha... I wonder where he is? Did he find them? Eventually i fell asleep, but was woken up by the panicking villagers when night came. "We are all going to die!" the people cried. "Don't worry i won't let anything happen to you." I told them as i sat up pulling my bow and arrows onto my lap. "Can the Priestess protect us in her condition?" a old man whispered to another. "Aye, she is the reincarnation of lady Kikyo." another answered. I was beginning to get annoyed so i tuned out of the conversation, clutching the now nearly completed shikon jewel. Could Kohaku possiblely be... and how am i supposed to get Koga's shards? I don't even what to go near him again By the time morning came i could barely keep my eyes open and i was surrounded by many sleeping people who were counting on me to protect them. Why are they panicking so much anyway? No demons came. I sighed, looking at all the damage Naraku had caused. Many of the huts were destroyed, debree all over. Something caught my eye and i looked to my right to see that it was Inuyasha with Kaede on his back, Sango, Miroku, Shippo, Rin still holding Yuri. I smiled as i quickly got to my feet and ran to them, careful not to step on anyone. "Your all alright!" I cried reaching them only moments later. Inuyasha caught me and i hugged him, i smiled up at Kaede. "Mother!" Shippo yelled as he jumped up and i just barely caught him. "Nothing happened? Your all alright?" i asked, worried about everyone. "Aye child." Kaede told me.
Inuyasha's POV
The men began to rebuild the village while the woman and children stayed with Kaede and Kagome near Kikyo's grave. It didn't take long to rebuild with me helping and a week later it looked like nothing had ever happened. Everyone settled into their homes, while i tried to get Kagome to rest so her wounds would heal... impossible woman. "Kagome you need to rest and let your wounds heal! Sango can handle the kids for a little while!" i said repeating the same thing i had been for a week now. "I can't just sit here and do nothing! Shut up!" she snapped at me. That's it! I had been trying to be patient with her. I picked her up and brought her back inside Kaede's hut. "If you won't listen i'm going to make you." I told her as i set her down on her sleeping bag and sat infront of the door.
Kagome's POV
I can't believe this! I'm feeling fine and i have been careful not to hurt myself! Is it nesessary for him to guard the door! I screamed in my head as i shot him a icy glare. "Stubborn woman." He mumbled. I stood up and walked towards him. "Yes Inuyasha i am stubborn and proud of it." I told him stopping right infront of him and sat down, i had something i had to tell him before i forgot and continued to argue. I took a deep breath trying to calm myself down. "Inuyasha... Naraku told me something... about Kikyo. He says that he killed her." I said regretting that i had to tell him but i knew i would have regretted not telling him. He stared at me for a long time before he finally spoke. "She's dead?" The sadness in his voice hurt, i nodded and hugged him. I was a little surprised when he hugged me back. We stayed like that for a little while, about 30 or so minutes later he whispered. "Atleast Naraku's dead... i did what i promised to do. She can move on and so can i." I knew he wasn't speaking to me so i didn't say anything. "Kagome... didn't you tell me that your mom wanted you to go visit her?" I pulled away from him, knowing that he was trying to send me away so i wouldn't see his pain.
