CHAPTER 9: QESTINOS
The spy had given Naraku some very vital information. He sat in his private chambers of his fortress thinking it over. 'So the lord of the western lands has fallen in love with a human. I can not belive that little bitch I poisined years ago is still alive. Both of these things can be used to my advantage. I can use the miko to get to the youkai lord and the girl to get to Inuyasha. It may even be possible to use her to get to the monk. He aparently cares for her deeply.' Naraku had given up on getting Kagome to love him now he just wanted to torture her and her friends. Before killing them for the sick pleasure of it.
Sesshomaru now had a headache form listening and answering all of Rins many qestions. He had stopped thinking of his sister long ago. Instead he was thinking about how much he wanted Kagome. He knew that Samara would get Kagome to fallow her heart. Just as he knew Kagome would do for Samara regarding the qestion of weather or not to come back. In his heart he knew that it could mean he could soon lose both of them forever. As long as they were happy he didn't care. 'What have these girls done to me' he thought for the millionth time in the last four days. Then he decided to go for a walk and possibly see what that half-breed brother of his was up to.
By they stopped for lunch Inuyasha and the others had found five more shards of the jewel. Samara had needed to use both ends of the Tyana one to help Inuyasha kill the formor holder of the shards. Also to heal Miroku after his side had been ripped open by sharp fangs. She had to work fast because the bite had poisin in it. During the battle her new friends also learned she had the same poisin claws as her twin. They were very affective and she used them well. "Where the hells did you learn to fight like that?" asked Inuyasha. She just smiled at him and didn't say anything.
Shippo was fasinated with her because he had never met a female inuyoukai. As a result of this fact he asked her all kinds of qestions. Including why she didn't treat Inuyasha like Sesshomaru did and why she was so diffrent from her twin. She told him that when she saw how other youkai treated humans and half-breeds. She had decided that she didn't want to be crule like most of them were. She also told him that Sesshomaru wasn't realy as bad as he acted and she laughed at his face when it clearly said are you crazy.
Miroku had been thinking how unhappy this girls life must be. "Please don't think that Miroku. I am happy and if I realy wanted to leave I would. Sesshomaru may be stronger then me but I am faster, more stuborn,and more cunning then my brother ever will be. I have been raised to be loyal to my family first and formost. Besides it is not like he keeps me locked up aginst my will he just wants to keep me safe. It's just that I have been in the castle for so long that the outside world and the creatures in it make me a little nervous. These lands always have been and always will be my home.
