It was a sunny day, clear blue skies, birds chirping. Sango was walking along with her friends and Kirara. Sango's back still hurt a little where her brother, Kohaku's sickle had been. Sango recalled the memory, she then thought "I'll kill Naraku and rescue Kohaku from his evil grasp." Suddenly Inuyasha cries out "I smell Naraku"! Snapping back to reality Sango grasps her hiratsu tightly. Could they save her brother before Naraku decides to kill him?

Sango and her friends race after Inuyasha as he races to where Naraku's scent is coming from. Upon reaching the castle Sango notices that the sky is black from the evil within. Unknown from the others there is a barrier to keep out everyone but Sango out. Sango looks around, no one but her "Stupid barier" she says to herself realizing it was a trap all along. "Ah, Sango I've been expecting you" Naraku says coldly. "Let Kohaku go"! Sango shouts. "Why should I ruin the fun?" Naraku replies colder than ever.

Kohaku steps out from the shadows and raises his sickle ready to attack. Sango feels the slight pain in her back again and screams to Naraku "Damn you"! Kohaku starts running toward Sango, sickle raised. Sago jumps out of the way just in time as the sickle hits the air right where her head had been moments before. "Please Kohaku, snap out of it"! Sango yells as she yet again dodges a blow that would have killed her. "I do not wish to hurt you" Sango yelled as she used her hiratsu to block his blow.

Sango finally knocked her brother's weapon away and pinned him down. "Go ahead, kill Kohaku", Naraku said sinisterly. "No"! Sango shouts back, "I can't do that, he's my brother". Sango unpins her brother and lets him go. Naraku growls and disappears with Kohaku. The barrier then fades and Inuyasha, Kagome, Shippo and Miroku rush over to Sango who is sitting on her knees crying. Kagome runs over to her and starts comforting her. Inuyasha looks around then proclaims "Damn, he got away", as the castle starts to fade away. "We will just have to keep searching for Naraku" Miroku says calmly. Together they start down the road and Sango shivers at the thought of Kohaku's blank, cold eyes.
