Hymn 18

Naraku chuckled.

That had been too easy, and even now, Kohaku was on his way back to him.

Now he just had to figure out where that last shard had gone... though, it was awfully odd, he thought, considering the jewel, it looked as though only one shard was needed to fill in the final hole.

Did Kagome actually still have it on her, hidden, and now its integrated with the larger piece, just as she is?  he wondered.  That's the only thing that makes sense.

And suddenly, he began to laugh...

It wasn't a sane laugh.

It didn't take too long, really, for Kohaku to appear, and with blank eyes, turn as ordered and allow Naraku to pry the jewel shard from his back.

The spider simply ignored the collapsed boy as he held up the final piece...

And with reality rumbling around them, he slid what was, indeed, the final piece into its place.

Dark clouds raced across the sky as the sunlight became thin and weak.
