Chapter 4

* Flashback continue *

*Last chapter*

"Kukukuku, I see most of you have been awaiting my presence." Upon hearing Naraku's voice did Inuyasha get into a battle stance.

(Sorry not good at battle scenes.. I hope it's okay)

"Give me the Jewel shards, bastard!" Yelled Inuyasha, the others rolled their eyes. Kagome knowing a monologue was about to start between the two, snuck back to Jaken and told him take the children with Au and Un to Kaede's village. Jaken was about to tell Kagome off when Sesshomaru turned his head to look at him, gulping he ran to do as Kagome ordered.

"And why would I do that, Inuyasha? For I have come to you for your Jewel shards. I need the Jewel to be rid of Onigumo's human heart, thus becoming a full fledged demon. You will not stand in my way. For you do not have the power to completely defeat me."

During Naraku's speech, Sesshomaru saw that Jaken got the children away as they drew further away into the distance. Upon hearing Naraku's last statement, replied "we shall see." Withdrawing Toukijin unleashing the first attack.

Seemingly endless amount of demons appeared out of nowhere heading for the group, Naraku vanishing from sight. "Fuck! Where did he go!?" Shouted Inuyasha as he unleashed his windscar. "He's here. I sense the shards but can't pinpoint their location. He must have a barrier around them." Kagome inquired as she shot a few enemies with her arrows.

The battle had become more intense, lesser demons fell one by one. Sango gasped at the sight of her brother entering the battle field to stand next to Naraku. Pulling Kohoku's shard from his back, killing his instantly. Causing Sango to go into a rage. Which became her down fall, having been struck by her own weapon, the (not sure) after it was reflected back at her by Kana's mirror. Knowing her unconscious.

Seeing the love of his life struck down, not sure if she's alive or not opened his wind tunnel sucking everything in it's path. After holding out for a few minutes he blocked the wind tunnel with his prayer beads before collapsing from the (not sure) poison entering the wind tunnel. With the last bit of energy he had he dragged himself to Sango's location before also losing consciousness.

*Snap!* Toukijin's blade broke in half. Inuyasha heard the sound of a sword braking. Turning his head toward the sound he sees Sesshomaru holding his broken sword. "Feh! Look who's useless now!" Sesshomaru dropped the useless sword hilt to the ground. "I am not dependent upon a sword like you little brother."

Naraku seeing his chance to remove Sesshomaru from the playing field sent horde after horde of lesser youkai to attack the unarmed taiyoukai. He was able take down half before one managed to place a rather deep gash upon Sesshomaru's left cheek, he dropped down to a knee at the intense pain from his youkai markings being cut into. But that was all it took for the remaining youkai to over come Sesshomaru.

Inuyasha has to cover his eyes as Sesshomaru became surrounded by a blinking light. As Inuyasha had his eyes covered Naraku pierced him with multiple tentacles. One in each limb, and 4 in his chest. Inuyasha coughed up a large portion of blood before he lost consciousness.

Kagome had been trying to keep it together after seeing the slayer and monk fall, but at seeing both Sesshomaru overcome and Inuyasha impaled was to much for her. Her head lowered along with her sword. Not seeing the bodies of youkai surrounding Sesshomaru begin to disintegrate in a powerful wave. Sesshomaru emerges barring a fully regenerated left arm, holding a sword (Bakusaiga) clenched in his returned hand.

Fully emerged he looks to Inuyasha the to Kagome, just as Naraku's tentacles flew towards her. Before he could move a muscle the tentacles got a few inches from her before the disintegrate. Kagome raised her head to look at Naraku.

Sesshomaru's eyes widened at the intense power radiating from her eyes and skin. Unable to see anything but her target she walked to Naraku's location. Before he could flee a barrier formed around both the dark hanyou and Shikon miko. Sesshomaru ran towards the barrier but was stopped by an immense power that broke the barrier and blanketed the entire field.

All of Kagome's companions awoke including Kohoku.

In the center of the battle field covered in blood, stood a Miko with the completed Shikon no Tama. The Jewel started to glow and it intensified rapidly causing everyone to take a few steps back, while shielding their eyes.

The bright light from the Jewel in her hands swallowed her. With in a the light all Kagome could see was white.

"Shikon Miko." Hearing a voice but not seeing anyone, she asked "Who's there? Where am I?" An image slowly formed of someone walking to get out of nowhere. The closer the being moved to Kagome the clearer the person become, until a woman stood not but 3 feet from Kagome.

"You are within." Confused Kagome took in the details of the individual standing before her. The individual wore miko garb accompanied with ancient armor, and a four point mark on her forehead.

The being looked vaguely familiar, like she had seen her before in the past. Gasping "Midoriko." A smile formed on Midoriko's face. "Yes, my child. It is I." Remembering what Midoriko first said, she became confused. "I'm within what? The Shikon Jewel? But how could I have gotten here?" "You are here, but you are not. It is your mind that is within the Jewel." Feeling a little overwhelmed, she took a deep breath to calm herself. "And why is my mind in the Shikon Jewel?" Midoriko came closer to Kagome, raising her hand to place it on Kagome's cheek. "You have much to learn."

A few minutes later the bright light dissipated. Kagome still standing where she was before the light emitted, her eyes closed, but no one saw the Jewel in her hand anymore. Inuyasha stepped closer to Kagome. "Where's the Jewel, wench?!"

Opening her eye she first looks at Sesshomaru with tears in her eyes for a few moments before looking at the rest of her friends Sango, Miroku, kirara and Kohoku who have been received by Kagome's immense power. Then her eyes landed on Inuyasha. More tears came to her eyes as she spoke. "I'm sorry, but it's gone." Looking at her in disbelief. "What!" Turning her eyes back to Sesshomaru, "Please take care of Shippo." Hearing a gasp come from Sango, Kagome looked at her hands seeing then fading. But he was looking at Kagome. "No! You promised me the Jewel!" His anger getting the better of him, he charged at Kagome but by the time he got to her location, she was gone.

Starting to cry she calls out to her new blood family. "I'm sorry! Hopefully I will see you in the future!" Was all she was able to say before she vanished.
