InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Love's True Pain: Caught In the Crossfire ❯ The Crossfire (Conclusion) ( Chapter 9 )

[ Y - Young Adult: Not suitable for readers under 16 ]

“Oh God, Kags are you okay?” Sang rushed to her best friend's aid while Miroku was busying himself with Ginta and Hakkaku, and Inuyasha was marching towards Koga. The wolf demon hurriedly grabbed his pants and put them on (who really wants to fight in their underwear, or fight someone who's in their underwear for that matter?). When his jeans were buttoned he leapt at the raging hanyou in front of him but was easily deflected into another one of the concrete walls.

Miroku had finished tying up Koga's sidekicks, and Sango had finished with Kagome, but when they looked over to Inuyasha they were terrified. “Sango, is it just me or is Inuyasha getting purple stripes on his cheeks? And are they getting bigger?” “No Kagome, you're right. What we're seeing right now is his demon form, he's not fully there yet, but pretty close. Whenever his rage gets too high, his body starts turning almost fully demon. All of his senses increase, he gets stronger, and faster, but as result he loses most of his humanity.”

Kagome could only stare her lover, she was in awe. “Oh.” She watched him repeatedly knock down Koga, and yet she still wasn't afraid. Sure, she'd listened to Sango, but how could he not be himself, not have his humanity. If he did that for her he had to still be in there. She wasn't afraid in the least.

Koga once again got up and assessed the situation; he decided a direct assault wouldn't work. Before Inuyasha could take the offensive Koga shouted for Ayame. The female wolf demon was in the room in less than a second, five of her gigantic wolves in tow. Inuyasha wasn't even fazed; Miroku and Sango were taking care of the wolves and Kagome was in no harm, so Inuyasha just kept walking.

The hanyou jumped at Koga, slashing across his chest, leaving a gash at least an inch deep. Koga fell to his knees and tried to think, `The mutt hasn't even wielded his sword and I'm already hurt bad. This could mean trouble, come on Koga, think.'

But before he could Inuyasha grabbed him by the throat and held him almost a foot off the ground. Koga was losing air he had to do something quick so he kicked Inuyasha straight in the stomach. The inuyoukai stepped back a couple of feet, apparently slightly fazed, and Koga fell to the ground. “Here's my chance.” The wolf demon knew that even though he was injured, and Inuyasha was full demon, he was still the fastest. So he made a mad dash for Kagome. Once he had her, he put his claw to her throat. “Any of you move and I cut Kagome's throat! Got it?” Sango and Miroku just nodded, but Inuyasha couldn't even do that. He had completely transformed back into his hanyou form, and was staring blankly at Kagome's throat.

By pure chance, a ceiling tile that was injured in Koga's fight with the mutant wolves fell on Koga's head; it stunned him and caused him to temporarily release Kagome. Inuyasha immediately snapped out of his confused state and drew Tetsuiga.

Inuyasha couldn't use the wind scar because that would be too risky, so he lunged at Koga. Unfortunately, before he could strike, Koga realized what was happening and grabbed Kagome's arm, pulling her in front of him to absorb the attack. The blood splashed across Inuyasha's face. He couldn't move he could only stare at the heaped mass of what was once his mate, lying lifelessly on the floor.

He dropped the now de-transformed Tetsuiga onto the ground and just started crying. He fell to his knees and cried. He couldn't move he could only stare at the heaped mass of what was once his mate, lying lifelessly on the floor.

Koga saw his chance and jumped at it, literally. He plunged his foot straight through Inuyasha's heart, and the hanyou didn't even notice. When Koga removed his foot Sango and Miroku charged straight at him. Miroku began to swing his staff violently at the wolf demon, missing every time. Sango took out her Hiraikotsu and flung when Miroku out of the path. A split second before it hit the wolf demon Miroku stepped in front of him.

The two were sent flying into the concrete wall, broken backs and all. “Oh my God Miroku!” The demon slayer from the passed rushed to her dying lover's side, screaming his name. “Sa… Sango, my love. Don't… don't fret over m… me.” “Miroku kiss me one last time, please.” Tears were rushing down her face as she leaned forward into her last kiss. The two lovers stayed like that for twenty seconds until Miroku coughed up blood into Sango's mouth. “Nooo, Miroku!” As her lover drifted away into the after life Sango pulled out her katana and stabbed herself through the stomach. She fell on top of her dead lover and drifted away with him.

Prologue:

The police about an hour after the carnage, thanks to reports of someone breaking down the front gate. They called in all the CSI folks and the scene was determined a mass brawl.

Ayame, Hakkaku, and Ginta had managed to untie themselves and escape before the police arrived, and then moved to Japan to start a pack.

And so the spirits of our four heroes were forever sent into hell, where they could be united.

Okay guys, just so you know, Miroku doesn't have the wind-tunnel, he's just a monk. And I know, you hate me. It takes me forever to finish the story, the chapter's unbelievably short, and to top it all off, the ending's so sad. But I liked it so, whatever. But don't worry, I will make an alternate ending. Again, R&R.

Luv ya.
