Kouga's POV
Gone. They're all gone. Alone. I'm all alone. Kami it hurts to be so alone. My brothers all gone. Killed by him. Him who also killed my love. Kagome- same. There never was one as sweet as she. She's gone. The monk, Miroku was that his name? Gone as well with the exterminator. That poor, foolish woman loved him so much she embraced him as the hole in his cursed hand consumed him. They were passionately kissing as their lives were being ripped into oblivion. For some reason I believe they are still alive just not in this dimension. They live a happily ever after. The little kitsune ran off after the battle crying for his mother Kagome. I have no clue what happened to him for I was too grief-stricken to chase after him. The battle against Naraku took it all away. We lost. We lost everything. But I'm still alive and so is he. Well he's alive as you can be in a comatose state with his silver hair tinged red with his blood and hers but mostly his. I think he may have given up on life having been the one to hold her as she took her last breath. But he knew her love I never had that opportunity. I hear him groan a little in his sleep. I know he's in great pain but I've tried my best to keep him comfortable. I don't want him to die for he shares my sympathy and... There's something else I know there is but I can't pinpoint it. I just need him to live for I am so alone. Loneliness is agonizing. He is the only one left here in what was once the den of the wolves now the resting place of those noble demons. It took me hours to bury them all by myself. I even buried her making sure to put extra flowers on her grave. I buried remnants of the monk and exterminator in the same resting place for somehow I believe that is the way they would've wanted it. There was such power in that staff and boomerang. I wipe the tears from my eyes that thinking of their romantic death brings me. They lived loving and died loving. If only I could've won the battle in all their honor but it was impossible without the shards to increase my speed. True I was still fast without them but not as fast. My legs would not heal rapidly enough to continue fighting after they were struck with a scythe and I had been put out. I lay their my blood surrounding me everyone thinking I was dead but I wasn't. I was very much alive and forced to watch all their deaths. Kagome she had fallen right beside my head. Her brown eyes looking at me sadly as she realized this was her last moment and she had not even told the hanyou how she felt about him. She did so before her last breath escaped her sweet lips and I was forced to lie there and hear it. Hear the truth so loud that it brought more pain to my already pounding head and broke my heart into uncountable pieces. He realized I was still alive and after setting her aside with his coat covering her he leaned down near me.
"Protect them if I don't come out victorious. We've never seen eye to eye but please make sure they're okay. They liked you the entire time. You're not such a wimpy wolf after all." I had lifted my head then to watch him run blindingly into battle. The monk and the exterminator were still alive then but as he fought the black hole had began to engulf them. The pain at losing them had caused him to flaw his technique and he was run through. I stood as he twitched reflexively at the end of a massive metallic limb. Naraku and his ability to change his physical feature. He'd just tossed him aside after that and I threw myself over him to make sure he took no more abuse. Naraku had laughed and told me I could keep my life and the hanyou's that he had had his fun with us. The boy that had been with him had tried to follow him but I struck him so hard his skull almost cracked. I didn't want to kill him only knock him unconscious. He looked no older than sixteen and carried a striking resemblance to the exterminator. How rude of me it is to not even utter her name for I wish I could to pay her respects but I don't really know what it is.
"Sango." I look over at the bound boy his head bandaged only because I felt a little guilty. He hadn't killed anyone on that battlefield only injured me. I had seen him cry when the monk and exterminator 'died' so knew there was a connection there. If he was kin of the exterminator I would care for him and try my best not to harm him. His eyes slowly fluttered open as he tried to break out of his injury induced sleep. He awoke and looked at me with alarm trying to shake off the rope that bound him. He was only making the knots tighter. So I wasn't really alone now was I? They were both here but I had yet to figure out if this was a good or bad thing. Would he be happy that I had pulled him away from death's clutches? I doubt it. I bet he wanted to be with her but if I can't be with her neither can he. If I have to live with the pain of knowing she and everyone else is gone so does he. I approach the scared ebony haired ningen expecting him to cry any moment. He looks so innocent. So young yet wise beyond his years. I can tell an injustice has been done against him. Someone stole his childhood from him and I have a very clear idea who. That bastard just loves to harm others. I think he might be very sexually frustrated. If he had this delicious young one around why didn't he just ease his frustrations with him? Goes to show how smart Naraku truly is. I could've sworn I also heard this youth call him Master. I'm sounding so old now. I guess I have matured some since I first ran in the jewel seeking group. I had responsibilities you know being the leader of the pack and all but that's over now.
"Who are you?"
"Kouga last of the pack. And who are you?"
"Kohaku. Please let me go."
"Let you go? Where will you go? You are aware that I've just dragged you're bloody carcass off of what is now a cemetery? They're all dead but for some reason you're still alive. I should put you to good use."
"Please don't hurt me." His lips quivers and I deny myself the urge to bring my own lips to them. What is wrong with me I've been having thoughts about both the men in my presence? I feel something warm behind me. Realization dawns. He's awake and dragged himself over to me. His weight drops onto my back showing that he obviously is still weak. His lips are right by my sensitive pointed ears tickling them with his warm breath.
"Why did you save me?"
"You told me to protect."
"You know I didn't mean me."
"You were the only one left as well as this human child. There was no one else to protect." I can feel his tears drip onto my shoulder and smell the salt of them.
"Kill me."
"What?"
"Please I want to be with them. With all of them."
"I can't do that." He sighs and looks up only now noticing the boy on the wall.
"Kohaku," he growls out the name I must've missed something between these two.
"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to." I grip his jaw tightly sensing something I might not like is about to spill out of those luscious lips.
"But you did. It's your fault." Inuyasha swipes at him with his claws leaving three scratches on his cheek. I release the boy to turn my attention fully to Inuyasha picking him up in my arms as if he is a child. He must be a bit delirious as he snuggles into my arms as I carry him back to the fur throws used as a bed. I tuck him in then go back to the boy.
"I really didn't mean to." I grab his chin forcing him to look at me.
"Didn't mean to what?"
"She took the blow meant for him. He commanded me to kill him but she jumped in the way."
"Kagome?" He nodded his head sadly.
"You killed Kagome?"
"I. I. I don't know." He cries and tries to find comfort by hiding his eyes in my hand. I embrace him cutting off the ropes that bind him with my claws. There is something truly wrong with this boy and I intend to figure it out. I look over at Inuyasha who is once again sleeping. The boy in my arms has fallen asleep as well and a scent comes to me. He was on the battlefield as well but he ran off when his stoic mask crumbled. He had displayed emotion and not any average emotion. His heart had been shattered at the sight of his young female companion squired. She had reached out a tiny hand to him then fallen limp to the soil. He picked up her lifeless body and ran off. I could hear him in the distance as he tried futilely to revive her. Now he was hear burying her with the rest of them. I placed the boy down next to Inuyasha smiling as they curled up to each other. Things were becoming strange indeed.
"He's alive?" I nodded my head cautiously approaching the demon lord. His golden eyes reflected the pain he was feeling. My breath hitched as he threw himself in my arms. Why was I the one comforting everyone? They had lost a handful of companions while I had lost the hundreds that were my family yet I remained the strongest. If only my strength didn't crumble when I felt his tears on my bare chest. His body slowly ceased shaking and he stood plastering that same stoic mask on.
"Come you will all be better accommodated staying with me." He was lonely just as I was. He'd even lost the stupid toad but that didn't seem too valid. I guess he realized maybe he was valid when it was too late. The toad had tried to block a blow for him only to be sliced in half. He followed me into the small cave pursing his lips as he caught sight of the mess that was his brother. He picked him up as if he were made of feathers as I gently took hold of the boy. A hydra waited for us outside. I took once last look at the place I had lived all my life paying my final respects to them all. Things were changing. Changing very much. I sighed as I finally let my exhaustion take over me passing out to a welcomed warmth.
