(A/N: This is sort of AE to the Inuyasha series. This is a 'what if Naraku won' with some Higurashi element. Meakashi is more like it. I was going to make it a crossover series with it, but I have another idea for a Inuyasha/Higurashi crossover. Pretend where the one Naraku was defeated was the question arc, Watanagashi. And this one where he wins is the answer arc, Meakashi. All of those who've watched Higurashi knows what's most likely going to happen. Yep, tragedy. This is just a three-shot story. Because as I said I have a different idea for a Higurashi/Inuyasha crossover. His is what would it be like if Naraku won, like I said because Kagome was curious, and a mysterious force pulled them into some kind of other dimension. I don't own Inuyasha or Higurashi. But mentions of Higurashi characters will be replaced with OCs.)
Revenge
Inuyasha and the others were gathered around Kaede's hut. It's been three years since the defeat of Naraku. Inuyasha and Saki got married as well as Miroku and Sango, and they have three children, too. Twin girls and an infant son. One day, Kagome had become curious. "You know, I wonder what it would be like if Naraku had won?" That caused everyone to go into an uproar.
"What the hell did you say, Kagome?" Inuyasha spat. "No, the better question is, why did you ask that?" She shrunk away.
"Look, there was no harm in asking the question," she countered. "Naraku's dead, remember? You can't change the past."
"So ye are curious, are ye, Kagome?" Kaede asked, causing everyone to look at her. "Very well. Ye must go to the Lake of Mirrors."
"What's the Lake of Mirrors, Lady Kaede?" Miroku asked.
"There's a lake northwest of here called the Lake of Mirrors. As you look down upon it if you have vision ye wish to see, it will show it to ye."
"That's really interesting to know, Lady Kaede?" Saki said.
"Now, I'm curious to see what would have happened, if Naraku had one," Sango said.
"Me too," Miroku agreed.
"Me three," Shippo said with a nod of the head. They all looked at Inuyasha, waiting for his reply.
"Fine," Inuyasha snorted. "I guess there's no harm in finding out. If it'll come you all from complaining later, then fine." There were cheers all around.
They made it t their destination. Kaede decided to stay behind, and look after Sango and Miroku's children while they were gone. Kagome told her wish of what she wanted to see. The mirror glowed, and suddenly they were all pulled down into it.
When they woke up they were in the middle of the forest. "We're in a forest," Kagome spoke.
"Geez, Kagome," Inuyasha sneered. "Thanks for pointing out the obvious." She just glowered at him. She wanted to 'sit' him so damn much, but too bad she couldn't because he didn't have the rosary. That's because since Inuyasha and Saki are married, Saki found it unfair for Kagome to control her husband and mate any longer. The half-dog demon caught a scent of a certain evil spider-half demon. "Naraku's here." Just as he said that, the person in question made himself known. He was walking solemnly through the forest.
"It's been over fifty years, and I've still yet to find her or even her corpse," Naraku thought to himself.
"We can hear Naraku's thoughts," Miroku said, amazed.
"Everything is so dull, gray, and blank without her."
It wasn't any longer where he made it to the flower field. "Naraku."
"Tsuskio-chan," Naraku cried out. He saw figure out in a distance. They were all confused.
"Who the hell is he talking to?" Inuyasha said to no one in particular. They all shook their heads just as confused.
"You found me."
"T-Tsuskio-chan!" He raced to the middle of the flower fields. There stood the form of a sixteen year old girl with huge cocoa brown eyes, sun-kissed skin, and long black hair tied with a big blue bow in the middle. She was wearing a pink and indigo kimono with a green obi. He cupped her face. "I'm sorry, I didn't find you, Tsuskio-chan. I've been searching everywhere I could think of, but I couldn't find your body anywhere."
"I'm sorry, Naraku, for making you suffer. I'm a-"
"No! Don't say that," Naraku shouted out. "Staying by my side is enough." "Live?" he thought. "How can I live without you, Tsuskio-chan? Living is meaningless… Everything is meaningless without you there, Tsuskio-chan. I want to tease you more. I want you to rub my head more. I want to live together you…forever. I'll promise I'll be nice and kind. I Just want to live together forever with you, Tsuskio-chan." They were all in shock. This is a side they've never seen before in Naraku. And to tell the truth, it was kind of creepy. Especially, the way he was talking to himself. "Why am I like this? Over a woman, no less," Naraku thought, bitterly. "Well, maybe she had never looked at me with such kind, warm eyes, and patted my head… Then maybe I…I wouldn't have…fallen in love with her." They gang nearly jumped out of their skin. Inuyasha looked disgusted.
"Naraku in love?" Inuyasha gagged. "What woman in their right mind would love that disgusting bastard?"
"Kikyou, that damn priestess," the spider-half demon hissed with such venom. "How dare she suggest I can't kill her because she thinks I love her. Bah! How ridiculous? My heart belongs to Tsuskio-chan and Tsuskio-chan only." He started walking, and then he heard footsteps. "Footsteps. I hear footsteps. Could be Tsuskio-chan's footsteps?"
The scene changed to where they see Naraku talking to what looked like a lord of castle. "As you can see now that I've destroyed the demon, now you can assist me like you said."
"Thanks, Lord Naraku. Ever since that Itojo wench was oniferated away fifty years ago, we've had no more curse." The old geezer kept on talking, but Naraku was now too much in shock to hear him anymore.
"What…? What?!" Naraku thought in horror. "B-but wasn't Tsuskio-chan forgiven all those years ago," he spoke his fears out loud.
"When?" the lord was confused.
"When I cut of my right hand."
"Oh, that…? Well, I heard that it was for you, yourself."
"What?! WHAT?!" he thought in tremendous disbelieve. "I had to go through all that pain. I had to rip out three of my fingers. I didn't know which one was for Tsuskio-chan. It didn't matter how much pain I've went through as long as she was safe. That's why I even cut of my hand for precautionary measures, but she still wasn't…" The whole group was suffocated due to through the dark aura that was surrounding Naraku. This aura was darker than usual. "Why wasn't Tsuskio-chan forgiven?" the spider-half demon spoke in a dark tone his calm demeanor completely vanishing.
"Well, her parents wanted to destroy the Harazami Village," the lord said in a frightened voice.
"What Tsuskio-chan's parents did had nothing with her. She was just a sweet, innocent girl. It's obvious that you people even let the befall curse get to her. Poor, poor, Tsuskio-chan. What had she done? She's done nothing! She was just an innocent member of the Itojo family. You people have cornered her until she had no where left to run. Tell me! What crime did she commit?! WHAT CRIME DID TSUSKIO-CHAN COMMIT?!" Naraku angrily stabbed the lord in the chest with a knife. His outburst even caused Inuyasha and the others to jump out of their skin.
The scene changed to where they see Naraku cooking something in a pot with a dark look on his face. "Kagura, go with Kanna and destroy Inuyasha and his friends just as planned. I've got some important business to intend to."
The scene changed once again to where Naraku was still was trying to get the lord to wake up. They look to be in some "Lord Yanu, how long do you plan to sleep." Naraku went to suspect him. "Wait a minute…! Is he dead? Was it from that stab wound?" he thought. "He died…without showing any remorse for Tsuskio-chan? How dare he? How dare he!" He took a knife and slashed apart the lord. "How dare you put Tsuskio-chan through so much suffering, and die without apologizing to her?!" Inuyasha and the others were horrified, especially Shippo. Is this what Naraku does when he isn't trying to destroy them, or collecting the jewel shards? Is this what he does behind the scenes?
"How horrible?" Kagome gasped out. The others could only nod their heads in agreement.
The scene changed once more to where Naraku was yelling at a group of villagers. They seem to be villagers from the lord's village of who Naraku killed. "If you people where they're when Tsuskio-chan was convicted would you have helped her."
"O-of course we would," a frightened elder lady. "If it would have saved her life, we would have helped stopped." Naraku completely stood stock still.
"Lies! Lies! Lies! All lies!" he shouted, hysterically. "Even if they did see Tsuskio-chan die, none of them would have lifted a finger to help. They would have been glad to see her die. Tsuskio-chan probably had hope that someone would help her, and when she saw these people watch her almost get executed she became hopeful again. Only for it to be lost." He clenched tightly to his head as thoughts of how Tsuskio could have died past his mind. "H…elp her…" He let out a loud agonizing scream. "Dammit! Help her! Why?! Why won't you help her?! Even when Tsuskio-chan was cornered by her abusive adopted parents you people still didn't lift a finger to help her!" The villagers all jumped at his outburst. Even Inuyasha in the others, too. "I had to do all I can withstand to help her! Even when Tsuskio-chan was accused of the murder of foster-mother, I had to create a false alibi for her! I had to fight for her! I had to sacrifice three fingers, no my entire hand for her! But my sacrifices weren't enough to save her, were they?!" He started kicking the bars of their cells frantically with a dark crazed look on his face. "You people knew… You knew and still didn't help. You knew when she was going to be oniferated away, you still did nothing to help."
"W-we didn't know. Honest." They villagers were terrified beyond compared.
"You're lying! I won't forgive you! I'll never forgive you! I'll never forgive you all for letting Tsuskio-chan perish! I'll slaughter you! I'll kill each and every one of you in a way that would sufficiently avenge Tsuskio-chan! I'll spend every waking hour thinking of the most horrible, cruelest way to kill you all! And once I'm done with killing you all tossed what's left of your bodies in the similar place where Tsuskio disappeared! Then you can all apologize to Tsuskio-chan on the other side!" The villagers fear took control all they all shivered in fright. Inuyasha and the others could hardly comprehend what was happening. All they knew was this psychotic side of Naraku was differently not something they've seen before.
(A/N: That's the end of the chapter of my three-shot story. Just two more chapters and it's finished. How did you look it. Yes, I know Naraku is probably OOC. Remember this is a different side of Naraku. A more crazed, psychotic side of Naraku. All because of a lost love. The scene where Naraku was talking to Tsuskio as she was a ghost, and Inuyasha and the others were confused and thought he was crazy was his hallucination and combined with his love for her was his delusion of him seeing her as a ghost. Remember in this for those who have seen or watched Higurashi, should know Naraku has hit the L5 stage of the Hinamizawa Syndrome. Or, in this case, the Harazami Syndrome as you know everything in Higurashi as a name change, even the characters, well, most of the characters. And some even a gender change. This is more like the last few chapters of the Meakashi-hen arc of the Higurashi manga. Please read and review! The next chapter is Naraku torturing the villagers to death, and after he comes to horrible realization. Stay tuned!)
