Summary:

 Hell has been opened, and 43 of the most fearsome demons who have ever lived escape...Naraku among them. After three years apart, Inuyasha and Kagome reunite to face this ultimate challenge of strength, willpower, determination...and love.

Takes place after Naraku is defeated in the manga.  I didn't care for the events that happened after that point.  This story is an alternate ending.
