Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha or else I would not be writing a fan fiction about it. I would just change it to my liking, get that?

Ok, so I guess this will take place just after Mt. Hakurei collapses and Naraku is reborn. A little bit before they meet the forefather of Hojo, though. It might not seem like it right now, but this will have to do with the pair Sango/Sesshomaru. Just be patient and wait.

Chapter One: The Failed Plan

Sango frowned, not believing her ears. "We're going to do what?" she demanded

Kagome sighed, "I know it may sound kinda dangerous and stupid, but we're outta time. If we wait any longer, then Naraku is going to get even stronger and impossible to defeat," She gazed at her friend with pleading brown eyes, "Please Sango? It's our only chance."

"She's right," Inuyasha said, trying to make his face look indifferent but the taijiya could see worry etched into his face, "We have to do this."

Sango still wasn't sure of this, "I don't know. I really doubt that Naraku would fall for this… It's too simple of a plan. Surely he would have thought of this?"

"That's the point!" Miroku exclaimed, "It's so simple that Naraku couldn't have thought of this!"

"Are you sure?" Sango asked hesitantly.

"YES!" Everyone, even quiet Shippo who had not been in their conversation, practically shouted back at her.

"Ok, ok," She agreed, "Lets do it!" She still wasn't so sure about their plan, but if everyone thought that it would work, it probably would work. But still, she sensed a premonition coming from their plan. Sango ignored the bad feeling in the pit of her stomach and smiled at the others, who were all getting prepared…

Sango clutched on to Kirara, worried to death about what they were going to do next, but she did not allow her fears to be voiced to the man who sat behind her, his arms wrapped tightly against her waist. Their plan was quite simple, actually. They would just go hide and surprise attack Naraku. Hopefully he would die on this very day. Still, Sango doubted that their plan would work out. Naraku is a intelligent, powerful opponent, as much as I hate to admit it. So, obviously, he would have thought of this, wouldn't he?

"Sango, we're here!" Miroku whispered into her ear and she nodded and landed Kirara on the earthy ground. Then they started to creep and crawl to their designated hiding spots, silent as a stalking wolf. Well, most of them were in the plan. Shippo stayed behind with Kirara to protect him and they were currently safely hidden in the forest. Inuyasha had wanted Kagome to stay in the forest with Shippo and Kirara as well, but she had refused, and to his obvious annoyance, Sango and Miroku backed Kagome up, agreeing that they would need her spiritual help. Now Kagome crouched down behind a remarkably tall, thick old oak tree with Inuyasha while Sango and Miroku both hid behind a large boulder. They all waited for the opportune moment.

Suddenly, Naraku appeared, standing tall in his finery in the open. Who stood next to him almost made Sango gasp, but Miroku quickly put his hand over her mouth before she could. It was Kohaku.

Everyone turned their heads to stare at Sango in their hiding spots. Kagome's look was urgent. You must not be seen, Her look seemed to say. The taijiya nodded her agreement and they all continued to wait. Naraku looked around. He must have heard a little bit of the noises that they made, but then he chose to ignore them and continue with his business. Sango silently exhaled the breath she had been holding and continued to watch with a heavy heart, her brother with her worst enemy.

"Kohaku," Naraku said to the boy with his raspy demonic voice, "Come here."

The taijiya could only watch with horror as her beloved little brother approached the half demon. "Yes?" He asked.

"I am quite close to obtaining all the jewel shards," said the monster, "Do you know that Kohaku?"

"Yes, master," Kohaku answered blankly.

Sango's hands clenched into fists in her lap at the sight of Kohaku still brainwashed, but there was nothing for her to do but keep on watching. Her face twisted with worry as she saw Naraku's lip curl up in a smirk, "Do you also know that in order for me to make myself as completely powerful as I possibly can, I have to have all the shards of the jewel?"

There was a slight pause before Kohaku once more answered, "Yes, master," in his monotone voice. Had Sango just imagined it, or had a pang of fear shine in her brother's eyes? She doubted that he was afraid, but if he were, he had every right to, for they both knew what Naraku was attempting to do. Even though Kohaku looked perfectly fine with Naraku's decision, Sango wasn't. Her insides burned with anger and pain. She soon forgot that they were in hiding and instinctively crouched down into her battle position, her Hiraikotsu clutched tightly in her right hand.

Everything seemed to slow down and freeze as Naraku's hand approached Kohaku's jewel shard. Obviously, Kohaku did not protest or do anything to stop him. However, Sango did. Naraku's hand moved swiftly toward to shard, but when his hand was less than an inch away, something blocked his way. It was a demon bone. Naraku's eyes narrowed as he found the Hiraikotsu set protectively in front of the boy and the annoying demon slayer standing in front of him, holding the Hiraikotsu. How she had gotten there so fast was a mystery for him, but he did not care to find out.

"Don't you dare lay a finger on my brother," Sango said, her voice quiet but deadly.

Naraku grinned, "And what if I do?"

By then Inuyasha and the others had snapped out of their bewildered state and were now running toward Sango and Naraku, "Get out of the way!" Inuyasha yelled of her. Sango obeyed, grabbed Kohaku and sprinted with him in her arms towards the forest. Before the two siblings disappeared into the sanctuary of the trees, Sango could hear a man's voice yelling, "Wind Scar!" And the usual boom following it. The taijiya hoped that the Wind Scar worked, but she was in no position to stop and look behind her.

Finally, when she and her brother were about a quarter of a mile away from the fight, Sango stopped. "Kohaku," She muttered, her eyes brimming with emotions. Her dear brother, who was usually so full of life just stared at her with his blank gray eyes. The taijiya sighed and smiled at the eleven-year-old. "You may not remember me, but I'm your elder sister and I love you very much," She told him, taking Kohaku and cradling him in her arms.

Kohaku didn't do anything but just stand there and let Sango do whatever. What was going on inside his head, however, was a completely different story. Kill her, The voice that was so menacing and evil that it could only belong to one person sounded loudly in his head. Must I? Kohaku thought back, This woman claims to be my sister and she's very nice.

Naraku's voice grew louder and more dangerous in his head, Kill her! KILL HER! Kohaku couldn't fight against Naraku. He slowly gave up and let Naraku into his mind. The next thing he knew before he completely lost all his mind control, he was holding up his sickle to the woman who still embraced him then nothing…

Sango closed her eyes as she felt Kohaku's warm body against hers. She knew that she should go back and help Inuyasha, but she wanted to enjoy a little moment with her brother first. Suddenly, she saw movement from the corner of her eyes. It was Kohaku. Wait- what is he doing? Kohaku's hand clutching his sickle moved toward Sango's back. Sango's eyes widened at that, but it was too late to stop him. A scream rang out clearly from the midst of the forest…

That was very, very, very bad, I know... And very short too, sorry. This shows how badly I need a beta!!! If you're interested, tell me!

Oh, and sorry for no Sesshomaru in this chapter... You'll see why he's not here and why this seemingly useless and dumb chapter is useful soon. This is my first attempt at Sango/Sesshomaru. Please review!
