I don't own Inuyasha.

A lone woman walked through the sleeping village. 'How I wish for such luxury, funny when I was alive I never thought sleep as such.' The woman thought as she walked on. She could not sleep, nor do anything else that people normally do. Her hair was tied in a low ponytail and she wore red pants and a long white haroi. This was the uniform of her position. She carried her arrows on her back. A bow was held in her right hand as she walked on not caring about the village. She had passed by hundreds like it. As long as no one saw her she wouldn't stop. Slowly and silently she came to the end of the village.

The woman stopped as she entered the forest. She could sense the aura of a strong demon. She knew this powerful aura, had fought the same demon before. But before she could raise her bow, she collapsed on the cold wet ground. All of the souls that allowed her to move had suddenly left her body. She was defenseless and at the mercy of the demon.

"This time Kikyo, you shall not escape me. I will show you who is master." It whispered as it carried her to his palace.

Naraku placed Kikyo on a futon then left her there. He had created a demon powerful enough to suck out all of the dead souls from the late miko. Yet she could not be sensed. Kikyo had no time to attack his new creation. The white demon walked up to Naraku. Her hair was the color of snow as was her dress. She held a mirror that she could command. The girl looked no older then ten.

"Master, who is she?" The child asked in a monotone voice. Naraku turned to his new servant.

"Her name is Kikyo. No one is to enter this room Kanna."

Kanna bowed and walked outside of the room. Kikyo lay unmoving, yet she could here every word that had been said.

"You are insane, Onigumo. Did you believe that little trick would send me back to Hell?" She asked her kidnapper. Kikyo was not surprised to find herself in Naraku's hold. For he was the one who she would defeat.

"Heh, I did not create Kanna to kill you. In fact, that is beyond her abilities." Naraku answered.

'What?'

"Do not look so surprised, Kikyo. I have no wish for your death as of yet." Naraku stated as if reading the priestess's thoughts. Naraku walked out of the room and left Kikyo where she was. He was not letting her go that easily.

Kikyo laid there trying her hardest to think of what Naraku wanted with her. He knew well enough that she could destroy him. What was his plan?

"Ha, your attempts are futile Naraku. You can not kill me. As for what you want with me right now, I shall soon find out."
