KAGOME'S P.O.V

Even as Rin kept telling me it would be alright and that Sesshomaru knew what he was doing I just knew he was going to wind up hurt. Inuyasha is irrational when in his demon state.

"Kagome! Try the subjection beads."

Sango suggested, but I shook my head. I knew they'd do no good, the last time I tried they had no effect on him. It was because when I had chosen a word to bind him I was infatuated with him, now I'm not so I no longer hold any power over the beads.

I heard a whimper and my attention instantly went to Sesshomaru. My eyes widened as I saw he was sporting a rather large gash across his forearm and side. I looked at Inuyasha and what I saw made me want to cry. He had regained control over his beast and was in the right state of mind, but had Tetsaiga drawn and was still attacking Sesshomaru.

'So he truly feels this way. Oh Inuyasha, I'm sorry.'

I thought as I watched the one I'd loved fight the one I love.

RIN'S P.O.V

I smelled Kagome's tears and didn't have to ask what caused them because it pained me to see Sesshomaru get injured too. He was like a father to me. He took me in and took care of me.

'Help him little one.'

Kitsana pleaded with me from within her cage, but I shook my head.

'No, he said to protect Kagome.'

'Don't you think keeping Sesshomaru alive will protect her? Imagine what would happen if he were to die. Then what? How would she react?'

Kitsana said and I froze. She was right, but he just said to protect her.

Inuyasha jumped and punched Sesshomaru in the snout. He yelped and transformed back into his humanoid form. Inuyasha climbed on top of him and pressed his sword to his throat.

"I finally beat you brother…now die."

Inuyasha said as he raised his sword, ready to plunge it into Sesshomaru's neck.

"NO!"

I shouted and without thinking I sprang forward, transforming in the process into my full form. I didn't even think as I ran full out at Inuyasha and knocked him off Sesshomaru. I pinned him down and growled at him. He just looked up at me and laughed.

"Aren't you a good little pet, protecting your master."

He said and I growled at him again.

"Sesshomaru!"

Kagome yelled and I turned to see her running towards Sesshomaru. That was a bad move on my part because Inuyasha's claws raked across my shoulder making me yelp in pain and stagger back. Instantly Inuyasha was gone and I heard a scream and smelled as more blood was spilled. I turned and saw Inuyasha with his hand through Sesshomaru's chest and Kagome trying to purify Inuyasha. Sango, Kilala, and Miroku had all been knocked out of the way each time they tried to help.

'All of my friends, he hurt every one of them and now he's trying to kill my father.'

I thought as I felt my anger rise, I couldn't do anything to stop it.

'Let me out little one, let your anger lose and kill him.'

Kitsana said in a dark voice and I gave in.

I growled as I let my energy grow to full heights with my emotions, no restraints on them at all. I felt my body grow to a size I'd never experienced before. I was taller than Sesshomaru had been in his full form. I shook my head and growled at Inuyasha before charging at him. I didn't think twice about sinking my teeth into his flesh and ripping him to shreds. He screamed out in agony, but I silenced him quickly. I felt an odd sensation take over my body at the taste of my first actual kill. Suddenly I was pushed away from myself and everything went black.

NORMAL P.O.V

Rin's eyes darkened to an even deeper red as her beast fully took over. The taste of her first kill's blood woke something within her that even she herself didn't know was there. She turned on Kagome and the others with a hungry look in her eyes.

"Rin! Calm down, he's dead!"

Sango yelled up at her young friend, but it did nothing but draw her attention to her. Rin's twin tails swayed back and forth as if she was nothing more than a playful pup before she pounced and raked her claws across Sango's front. The demon slayer was sent flying and Miroku turned towards his love in despair.

"Sesshomaru, what's wrong with her? Why is she acting this way?"

Miroku asked as he defended himself against one of Rin's paws with his holy staff. Sesshomaru coughed up blood before answering.

"Inuyasha was her first kill."

"What? But surely she has killed before to survive."

Miroku asked as he dodged another swipe of her paws.

"Yes, but only for that. This is the first time she's killed where she didn't have to do it to survive. It's awakened the darker side of her."

Sesshomaru said before coughing up more blood.

"Hang in there Sesshomaru!"

Kagome said hugging him close.

"So what do we do?"

Miroku asked as he jumped up on Kilala's back to escape another one of Rin's attacks.

"We have to fight her, unless we can get her to return to normal our best choice is to kill her."

Sesshomaru said and Miroku nodded.

"Kilala!"

He shouted and the fire cat flew higher and Rin followed them with her eyes. Just as Miroku was about to uncover his wind tunnel, Rin jumped up and knocked them out of the sky. Miroku was sent flying from Kilala's back and the impact from the fall killed him instantly. Kilala was able to fly back up and raced towards her mistress, but Rin caught her tail in her mouth and pulled her back. Kilala screeched as Rin tore her to pieces.

"Miroku! Kilala!"

Shippo yelled from his place beside Sango who was just coming to. She sat up and sat Miroku and Kilala both dead. In a rage, the demon slayer picked up her weapon and charged at Rin. But because of her injuries was slowed down and Rin squashed her with her paws.

"Sango!"

Kagome yelled as tears fell down her face. Rin turned and faced Kagome and Sesshomaru.

"Rin stop it! We're your friends! Why are you doing this!"

Kagome asked, but Rin didn't hear her. The bloodlust was too much. She jumped and landed with her forepaws on either side of Kagome and Sesshomaru. Kagome wrapped her arms around Sesshomaru and buried her face in the crook of his neck, knowing there was nothing they could do to stop their friend.

"I love you Sesshomaru."

Kagome said and Sesshomaru struggled to wrap his arms around Kagome's waist and speak for the last time.

"And I love you, Kagome."

He had just finished his sentence when Rin's claws raked across the earth, separating Kagome and Sesshomaru's top halves from their bottoms; killing them instantly.

"Mama!"

Rin turned on the only one left, Shippo. He was cowering against the rock face with tears running down his face.

"Rin, please! Stop!"

Shippo tried pleading with her, but she couldn't hear him. She stalked up to him, blood of their friends covering her from head to tail, dripping from her mouth. She laughed as she tore Shippo to part and his screams of agony filled the air, then their was silence.

Seeing that there was no one left to kill, Rin let out a howl before her beast receeded into the depths of her mind and Rin came back to the front. She transformed back into her human form, unconscious.
