"Inuyasha." Kagome said appearing in front of him.

"Kagome? Is it really you?" Inuyasha asked and she smiled teary eyed.

"Inuyasha, you have to kill me." Kagome said.

"I'm not going to kill you! Maybe by protecting Kikyo-"

"No Inuyasha. Enough maybes. You have to kill me, it's the only way of living." Kagome said and Inuyasha held her arms firmly.

"No, I'm not going to kill you!" Inuyasha yelled.

"Kikyo is near, wake up Inuyasha, I'm near too. Wake up now!" Kagome yelled.

"No Kagome!"

"Now! Inuyasha!"

"Inuyasha!" Akira yelled. Inuyasha sat up straight.

"Kagome!" He whispered.

"We finished the potion! Kikyo is near!" Akira yelled. Inuyasha was now fully awake. The sun had set a couple of hours ago and the moon was slightly a quarter high in the sky.

"Lets go." Inuyasha said.

Kikyo was walking with her bow over her shoulder walking towards the feeling of the dark Shikon No Tama. In front of her Kagome appeared with the dark Shikon No Tama completed around her neck, black as an Onyx stone radiating with darkness.

"Foolish girl, you let your heart fall into the darkness. I knew you were always weak." Kikyo said.

"So you are the famous undead Miko. Honestly, I don't see why you bother treating people if you're going to go into hell any way. You yourself let yourself be consumed by the darkness and bitterness of the women's souls you absorb." Kagome said and Kikyo raised her bow and arrow.

"I will kill you and take that jewel into hell with me and Inuyasha." Kikyo said and Kagome smiled and broke into a laugh.

"You don't get it do you Miko? You have already died; hell won't take you back in. You belong in this body with the stupid girl's soul." Kagome said and Kikyo let go of her arrow, Inuyasha and the gang arrived just at that moment and saw as Kagome muttered a silent prayer and Kikyo's arrow turned around with black energy and headed for the undead Miko. Kikyo's eyes were wide with shock but Inuyasha's Kaze No Kizu blew the arrow away.

"Do not interfere you filthy Hanyou!" Kagome yelled as he placed himself in front of Kikyo.

"I am not going to let you kill Kikyo." Inuyasha said.

"Another fool. Why doesn't anyone understand that she is already dead!?" Kagome yelled and placed her hands in front of her and started forming an energy ball. "I should kill you now!" But she couldn't move.

"But you can't shoot can you?" Kikyo said.

"What's stopping me?" Kagome muttered. She appeared to loose control of her body.

"It's Kagome!" Shipou said.

"Now Inuyasha!" Akira said and Inuyasha ran forwards and oppened the vial of goldish white water and poured it down her throat. Kagome pulled away and held her throat trying to cough the liquid out but it was no use. She fell to her knees weakly and breathed deeply. Seshomaru and Akira ran up to her and took the jewel from her neck.

"Now." They both said in unison and the dark jewel glowed Onyx black but then it changed into purple.

"No! NO!!!" Kagome screamed and took the jewel back from the distracted children and blew them away in a gush of wind but Inuyasha grabbed hold of them and cushioned their landing. Kagome placed the jewel around her neck and flew off as fast as she could.

"We have to follow her Inuyasha!" Seshomaru said and they nodded and ran after her. Inuyasha noticed Kikyo wasn't coming.

"I'm not wasting my time with such trivial matters." Kikyo said.

"The hell if I'm leaving you here. If Kagome kills you that'll just be the end of it so come on." Inuyasha said and grabbing her hand ran after to where Kagome was flying. Kikyo felt something strange, she felt warm around her chest, a feeling she never remembered having except… when she used to be with Inuyasha, long ago. She looked at his face as they kept on running but noticed that these feelings weren't coming from her… they were from Kagome.

Kagome rested her back against the tree trunk and held the jewel tightly trying to taint it. It was still dark purple but only the surface, the center was as pure as light and it was spreading. Just like she was starting to loose control of the body she was in.

"Stupid miko!!!" Kagome yelled and saw the others coming through the forest towards her. She grabbed the jewel and used all the power she had left.

Kagome started screaming in pain and on her forehead a jewel appeared, an amethyst and black light was coming from it.

"KAGOME!!!" Inuyasha said and tried going to her but the others held him back.

"No Inuyasha it's too dangerous." Kikyo said surprising everyone.

"What's happening?" Sango asked.

"The demon is leaving her body… She might not make it." Kikyo said.

"No Kagome!" Shipou started crying, as they couldn't get closer. Kagome was screaming in pain holding her head as a figure came from her jewel.

"AHHHH!!! INUYASHAAA!!!" She cried and the light stopped and she fell unconscious. Before her a huge beast stood. It had huge horns all over its back and vicious red eyes with no slits, a third blue eye on his forehead with a small black dot that didn't seem to stay still.

"Jajajajaja!!! Now that I'm free from her pathetic body I'll kill her!" The beast roared. Inuyasha attacked him with Kaze No Kizu before he slashed Kagome with his claws and the beats looked at him furiously with three big slashes on his back but not badly hurt. "Ill dispose of all of you soon enough." He roared and flew off.

Inuyasha ran to where Kagome was and held her unconscious form to him. The gem on her forehead had now disappeared and the jewel was around her neck now with a pure whitish/pink glow. He knew she was slowly slipping away and he couldn't stop it. He didn't notice Kikyo sitting in front of him.

"I'm so happy you met her Inuyasha." Kikyo said and he looked up at her shocked. "I didn't accept you for who you were but she did… be happy Inuyasha." She said and kissed him softly in the lips then looked at Kagome and closed her eyes. All the souls of the dead women left her body and then her soul entered Kagome's body and her body turned to ash that entered a small pot.

Kagome took a deep breath and her eyes opened. She sat up and looked around.

"What happened? I thought I was dead." Kagome said and she couldn't say much more because Inuyasha hugged her. Then Shipou threw himself at her followed by Sango and Kirara.

After Kagome was told everything about the Hanyous, or what they knew, they looked at the problem at present.

"His name is Shikutse. He's the apocalyptic demon." Miroku said.

"Hmm… He's going to destroy the world. He'll first send a cloud over the whole world, then a deathly poison wave that wont be able to penetrate the cloud so it will travel through the world killing everything in its path." Seshomaru said.

"Okay, how do we kill him?" Sango asked. They all turned round as they saw Seshomaru coming through the forest followed by Rin and Jaken, then a timid Hanyou from behind the bushes.

"Seshomaru? What are you doing here?" Inuyasha asked getting his sword ready.

"Kagura?!" Akira asked happily and the Hanyou smiled.

"Akira!" She said happily and both hugged each other laughing.

"Who's she?" Kagome asked.

"Her name is Kagura, she comes from the future!" Rin said smiling.

"Yep! I'm three quarters demon and a quarter Hanyou." She said smiling.

"Can we stick to the matter at hand?" Seshomaru asked obviously ticked off and Inuyasha smirked.

"All high and mighty Lord of the West who despises humans and Hanyous alike ends up mating one huh? Hypocrite." Inuyasha whispered the last part so only Seshomaru would hear.

"Right anyway. The only way to destroy Shikutse is working together." Seshomaru said and Seshomaru gave Inuyasha half a smirk.

"Very expected little brother." He said and Inuyasha looked at Seshomaru very ticked off.

Everyone else sweat dropped and sighed. Jeez talk about the end of the world. Talk about sibling rivalry. Everyone stopped as they looked up and saw a cloud spreading over the sky.

"We don't have much time." Kagome said.
