Smiling as she lay in her bed roll with Shippo snuggled next her, Kagome thought over everything that has happened since the Shikon no Tama was completed. She smiled.

`I can't believe it's complete!' Kagome sighed, `two years spent gathering the Shikon no Kakera, and now everything is done.' She shuddered at the thought of the final battle against Naraku.

« Flashback »

Kagome had her hand covering her face, as they walked into the shoki. InuYasha growled, low and menacing, he stood poised, waiting for an attack.

They took in the landscape wearily, cautious of any threat. Sesshomaru, being one of them, looked calm even in the current situation.
Miroku had his hand over his prayer beads, ready to remove them. Kirara was in her larger demon form and Sango was in her battle attire, one hand on Hiraikotsu.

InuYasha's ears twitched, hearing something moving at a fast pace. He turned in time, to see a tentacle coming towards him. He quickly grabbed Tetsusaiga and cut through the tentacle.

The shoki started to slowly disperse, and out stepped Naraku. Two of Naraku's creations made quick work of attacking Sango.

Kagome stood there, watching as her friends fought, feeling useless at the moment.

Sango was quick in defeating the first of Naraku's creations, the other-- still alive and mostly unharmed. While her and Miroku fought with the second, a swarm of saimyosho flew down upon the group. Miroku threw off his prayer beads and used his Kazaana to suck in not only all the wasps, but remaining creation.
The poison started to seep into Miroku's system, effecting him greatly. He collapsed to his knees, holding his arm. Sango, who was breathing heavily, rushed towards him, but halted as Miroku told her to stop.

'Do not worry, lady Sango' he had said, as calm as can be.

She looked hesitant, but nodded in understanding and turned towards the rest of the group.

Mean while, InuYasha was busy fighting off Naraku, who aimed attacks at him and Kagome. Just as a tentacle was about to impale Kagome, InuYasha threw her to the side, dropping Tetsusaiga. The tentacle pierced through his stomach. He coughed up a small amount of blood and snarled at Naraku.
Kagome got out her arrows as Sesshomaru cut through the tentacle and kicked Tetsusaiga towards InuYasha.

Kagura stood of to the side, watching them fight, an arm wrapped around Kanna, keeping her from interfering. Opening her fan, she aimed the winds towards Naraku.

Naraku turned, feeling the strong winds, he looked to the area Kagura was in, easily sensing her aura. A tentacle shot out, picking up and throwing, both Kagura and Kanna, violently to the side, successfully knocking them unconcious.

As Naraku was turned, Kagome placed an arrow to the bow. She tightened the string, pulling back, she aimed for the center of Naraku's chest. InuYasha and Sesshomaru attacked, at the same time Kagome released her arrow.

'Bakuryuuha!' was the only thing heard before a loud yell was heard, from the spot Naraku was in. A bright light could be seen, the energy looking as if it was tearing Naraku apart.

Sango ran towards the fight, grabbing Hiraikotsu off her back. Kagome grabbed another arrow, bringing it to her bow and pulling back the string.

'Hiraikotsu!' Sango yelled as she threw Hiraikotsu towards Naraku. Kagome released the arrow, and again, InuYasha attacked.

There was an eruption of light, so bright that the group had to turn their eyes. Once the light diminished, they turned to see nothing left of Naraku and many jewel shards and a red ball--Kagura's heart, littering the ground.

Kagome gathered the shards quickly, then, much to the protest of InuYasha, tended to his wounds.
Sesshomaru moved towards Kagura and Kanna, trying in vain to wake them. Sango ran immediately to Miroku. Kirara had stayed with him, keeping watch over him.

In the end, Sesshomaru had took Kagura and Kanna, picking up Kagura's heart. Miroku and Sango had rode back on Kirara and Kagome was riding on InuYasha's back.

Kagome smiled. Kagome had protested to riding on InuYasha's back, due to his wounds, but he insisted that she get on, seeing as how they had been traveling all that morning and she was exhausted. She had fell asleep on his back, and she could have sworn she had never had a better nap. He had woke her once they got to Kaede's village, and he had insisted that she get checked over by Kaede.
Kagome lay her head down, looking towards the stars. She soon fell asleep, a smile on her face.

A/N: Truthfully? I thought that sucked. :\ I don't like the way I wrote the final battle. But it's 12:00 at night and I wanted it to be quick.
