Chapter 2- Waking Up No Where
Kagome opened her eyes to the sun gazing down on her. She felt her whole body restricted to a tree and remembered what happened.
"Hello? Uh, where the hell am I?"
"You are awake? Good, now where are the jewel shards?"
"Like, I'd tell you." The thing that was talking to her came to face her. It was a wolf demon, but it was not Kouga. He looked more vicious. He grabbed her face diggind his sharp claws into her cheeks.
"I think you will."
"Well, I don't have them."
"You are lying." He said digging his claws even deeper into her face. She could feel blood dripping down her face, but was determined not to let the pain she was in show on her face.
"No, I'm not. I gave them to Inuyasha when I came back."
"That hanyou has them?! Well, I'll kill you all the same, but first I'll have a little fun with you." He slashed through her restraints and she immediately tried running. He of course was to fast and quickly grabbed her slinging her into the tree she was just freed from.
He laughed deeply and loudly. Kagome got back to her feet. She was almost too dizzy to stand but held her ground.
"Do you honestly think you can defeat me mortal?"
"N-no, but I'm not gonna give up that easily. It'll take more than that to get rid of me."
"Have it your way." He launched himself at her slashing into her chest causing her to fly backwards. She fell on her face. Her body was in total agony, but she again stood up. Swaying evey passing moment she stood there. She smirked at the suprised look on his face. He lunged at her again, punching her in the face so hard that she flew into another tree. She rolled onto her back and looked at the sky.
I can't get up this time. My whole body is on fire and standing can't help the pain anymore. Where are you Inuyasha?
"Can't get up this time? I thought you weren't going to give up?"
"I'm not giving up, but as I am a human my body has limits. You can go ahead and finish me."
"No, I enjoy watching you suffer. How long do you think it will take before you will bleed to death from that hole on your chest?"
"Who said I was suffering? I feel fine. And I don't know how long it will take and I do not care."
"You should care and can't hide your pain from me. I can smell your blood. No human could take a hit like that and not be in pain."
"I guess not."
There was a rustling in the trees. The forest became uneasy.
Inuyasha.
"Hmm, seems we have company. Guess that friend of yours is coming to try and save you."
Kagome's eyes fluttered and she knew she was about to faint. She heard the demon yelp in pain and through her blurry vision saw a silver haired figure standing over her,
"I-Inuyasha."
Kagome opened her eyes and immediately wished she wouldn't have. Pain shot through her skull and she gasped in pain.
"Kagome are you okay."
She looked around the room and saw Rin sitting in a chair a few feet from the bed she was lying in.
"Rin? What are you doing here? Where is Inuyasha?"
"I live here and how should I know where Inuyasha is."
"But he stopped that demon."
"No, that was Sesshomaru. Are you sure you're okay?"
"Sesshomaru? What!? I have to get out of here."
"I'm afraid", began a cold voice from the doorway, "you won't be going anywhere for a while. I doubt whether you'll even be able to walk."
"Where is Inuyasha? Why did you stop that demon? I thought you hated me."
"I didn't stop that demon from hurting you. I merely destroyed him, because he was in my path."
"Where is Inuyasha?"
"My guess searching for that pile of clay or whatever she's made of."
"Guess you're probably right about that. Why haven't you killed me?"
"You aren't a threat to me."
"When can I get out of here? Can't you just take me to Inuyasha?"
"No, you'll stay here. Why make it that easy for Inuyasha? I enjoy seeing him in panic. Don't worry he'll find you...eventually."
"I want out of here now!"
"Here's the door", he said stepping out of the way and gesturing towards the door.
Kagome tried to get out of teh bed, but the fire she felt in her head shot through her body and she lay back down.
"How long did you say I'd be here?"
"I never said. We'll just have to see how long it takes your body to heal and how long it takes Inuyasha to find you." He laughed coldly and exited the room.
"Inuyasha! Wait, where is Kagome?"
"She was supposed to come here. She never came?"
"No , we havent seen her since she left the last time. What's going on Inuyasha? Is Kagome in trouble?"
"I don't know, but we have to find her. Before we search I have to go find Kikyo."
"Inuyasha, is this really the time to go looking for Kikyo? I mean Kagome's in trouble."
"I found Kikyo the other day and she said something about Kagome being in trouble. I have to find out if she had something to do with this."
"Oh, right I knew that." Sango said blushing a little.
"You go find Kikyo. Sango and I will go ask if anyone saw anything. We'll meet back here and then begin the search."
"Thanks Miroku." Inuyasha flew through the trees faster than Miroku had ever seen.
"Come on Sango, we have to go."
"Do you think we'll find her?"
"Inuyasha will not rest until he does."
"I suppose not."
"You don't sound so sure. Are you losing faith in Inuyasha?"
"I just can't help but think if he hadn't gone looking for Kikyo in the first place none of this would have happened."
"I know, but I'm sure he regrets it more than either of us can imagine."
"You're right, let's get going though, it'll be dark in a couple of hours."
"Yes, let's go."
"Kagome, are you sure your okay? You've been staring into space for like the past hour."
"Oh, what, yeah I'm fine."
Why would Sesshomaru save me? He had to have sensed me. I thought I saw Inuyasha, but Sesshomaru also has silver hair. This is the weirdest thing that has ever happened to me. I get rescued by Inuyashas brother who he hates. Inuyasha is going to be so upset with Sesshomaru once he finds out whats going on. I hope he can find me soon. I don't trust being here. I have to get out. As soon as I have the strength I have to escape and find Inuyasha. Being with Kouga was better than this.
"Are you hungry? I could make you something to eat."
"No, thanks. Uh, where are we exactly?"
"Sesshy's hidden mansion. I don't think anyone but him knows the way. I wouldn't be able to find it without him."
"I see, well I guess getting out of here is gonna be harder than I thought."
"What?"
"I said I guess I really am safe so whats the point in leaving."
"Oh, thats true. Nothing can hurt us with Sesshomaru here to protect us."
"I suppose, do you mind I really think I should get some rest."
"Sure, I'll come back later."
