Hope you like it!
Chapter 10: The Kidnap Part II
Kagura flew over a mountain that wasn't far from the cave that secretly connected to both kingdoms. In a valley close to the summit a hidden village was built. Just above the village she gracefully jumped down and landed with Kagome in her arms. She grimaced looking at the village. The place smelled of decaying flesh and it was always dark even though the sun was up. Blood were splattered everywhere you look. She walked casually up to the biggest house in the village which was at the end of the valley. Her eyes narrowed when her eyes landed on someone dressed in white fur hide. A baboon mask covered the person's face.
"Ah you've finally arrived Kagura." a manly voice came from the guy in the baboon clothes.
Kagura nodded but kept her head down. "Master please forgive me but I was only able to capture the youngest daughter…"
"There's no need to tell me. I saw everything from Kanna's mirror." Upon hearing her name a little girl dressed in white appeared behind the man holding a mirror. The girl's eyes were blank, empty of emotions. She looks as if she had no soul but still walked among the living.
Kagura hesitantly looked up only to meet her master's red eyes. His eyes stared at her angrily. She knew that she would be punished for not getting the other sister.
"Kagura take the princess to the dungeon and meet me in my chambers once you're done." he commanded turning around and left with Kanna trailing behind.
"Yes master Naraku." she said bitterly as she watches him leave. After a few minutes of standing in the courtyard she slowly walked toward the house. She was afraid of what he would do to her. Her punishments were never the same. The more she got punished the more pain he inflicted on her.
Kagura walked in a room at the end of the hallway. In the middle a flap door was open. She jumped down into a dim and cold room. She put Kagome down a chained her arms to the wall. She jumped back up and closed the flap as she left the room to receive her punishment.
She stood in front of two large doors and sighed.
"Kagura."
Kagura looked to her side and saw Kanna there staring at her with those empty eyes of her.
"What is Kanna?" she asked not wanting to speak to her at the moment.
"If you listen to him and follow orders you won't be hurt." she said blankly.
Kagura grunted as she replied. "It wouldn't matter if I did or didn't." she glanced sideward at Kanna.
"You care if you get beaten yet you don't care." she said more as a statement than a question. The mirror she held showed Kagura's reflection then changed to her getting slashed by Naraku.
She looked away not wanting to be reminded. "Just leave me alone Kanna and stop going into my head." she said angrily as she pushed the doors opened and walked in.
Kanna watched the doors close as Kagura glanced back before they finally shut. Kanna stood staring at the doors, not leaving from her spot. She turned away and slowly begun to disappear as Kagura's screams could be heard from the room and echoed through out the house.
Inuyasha deflected Kane's attack and landed on the other side of Kane. His whole body was covered in sweat. He was exhausted and mad that Kane blocked every attack he threw at him. Kane's smug face started to piss Inuyasha as he thought of sending another wind scar at that Kane guy.
Kane pointed two fingers at Inuyasha as vines from the ground flew out.
Inuyasha jumped away from a few but one caught his leg and fell to the ground. The other vines wrapped themselves around his body. He tried to ripe them apart but more would appear and he found himself tightly wrapped. "Damn you to hell!" he yelled at Kane above him.
"Yawn that was absolutely boring and I thought the son of the great dog demon would be worth fighting but I was wrong." Kane flipped his hair away from his covered eye and revealed a bluish silver colored eye.
Inuyasha stared at the guy's eye. He saw the eyes move by itself and it really bugged him to see that. It's as if his whole aura changed completely. "What the hell are you?" he yelled as Kane jumped down to the ground. The pillars that surrounded them sank back in the ground.
"I am Kane and a mix breed of many demons. You have only witnessed a small amount of my power and if you have any hope to defeat me you have to be stronger than you are now." he said and smirked as Inuyasha screamed from being squeezed by the vines.
Holding his right hand out a spear appeared and he grasped it. He pointed it at Inuyasha's throat. "I'm sorry you weren't much of a challenge." He held the spear above him and brought it down.
"Hiraikotsu!"
Kane jumped back before a huge boomerang swept over where he would've died if he didn't jump out of the way. His hair fell down and hid his eye. His ruby scanned the area but he couldn't sense the person who threw that boomerang, but all he knew was the person is a female from the scent on the boomerang.
"Come out woman and fight me." he yelled scanning the area.
He twirled the spear above him waiting for a sign of movement.
"Wind tunnel."
"Wind scar."
Kane didn't expect his spear to be sucked out of his hands and wasn't prepared for when the wind scar hit him full force. He dropped hard onto the ground. Most of his clothes were ripped and blood seeped out staining his body and the grass below him. He limply got off the ground. "You may have gotten lucky but next time I'll be prepared for any sneak attack you have. I bet your lover is as good as dead." he glanced at Inuyasha before leaving in a ball a purple miasma.
Inuyasha ran to Kikyo and almost dropped her for her body was very cold.
"Inuyasha!"
Inuyasha looked up and saw Miroku, Sango, Shippo, and another demon he and never met before.
"Thank you for the invisibility spell Shippo." She bent down to hug him but he squeaked and hid behind Miroku. She smiled and turned to Inuyasha and gasped. "Oh no Kikyo! We have to get her to one of the village doctors." Sango cried seeing Kikyo become a pale white.
"Demon villages don't have doctors, Sango. It's either you kill to survive or you die." Miroku explained.
"That's awful." she looked like she was about to puke and would probably faint if Miroku did wrap his arm around to comfort her. Her face turned red of the close contact, and expected him to grab her ass. He did nothing but hold her in his arms.
"Don't worry Sango I'll be able to heal her."
The group turned to the other demon as she bent down next to Kikyo.
Inuyasha backed away not letting the demon anywhere near Kikyo.
"Prince, if I don't heal her now she will die. Please I promise no ill will to princess Kikyo." the demon said.
"Inuyasha please this isn't a time to be untrustworthy." Sango cried.
"Yes I agree with Sango on this one." Miroku spoke up.
"Um I think so too." Shippo chirped up from behind Miroku and Sango.
Inuyasha looked down at Kikyo's pale face and back at the demon. "If you kill her you will be killed by my hands, understand?" he yelled glaring at the demon.
"Yes I understand. Now set her down on the ground and step back."
Inuyasha put Kikyo softly on the ground and took two steps back.
The demon knelt next to Kikyo hands above her heart. The demon pulsed and the others saw Kikyo begin to glow a light green color as her body also pulsed.
The demon stopped pulsing and so did Kikyo. Stepping away from Kikyo the group saw Kikyo slowly open her eyes.
Inuyasha leaped forward and swept Kikyo up in a tight hug.
"Uh Inuyasha? What is going on? " Kikyo gasped as she pulled away from him. "Where am I and where is Kagome?" She got up and looked around for her sister as she screamed her name. "Kagome? Kagome where are you? Kagome!" she fell to her knees sobbing. "She's gone and I couldn't protect her." she said as her sobbing became louder.
Inuyasha and Miroku watch Sango and the demon trying to calm Kikyo down.
Miroku stared at Inuyasha as Inuyasha stared back with a quizzical look. "What are you staring at me like that?"
"You have to go rescue Kagome." he replied.
"Why me? I hate the bitch so why would I want to save her ass." he said glaring daggers at Miroku.
Miroku shook his head. "There are many reasons for one Kikyo is over there crying her eyes out for her sister who if you forgot is Kagome. Secondly her best Sango is crying as well and I don't want her to be depressed." he looked at Sango and saw tears streaming down her face. "And thirdly you're still in…"
"Don't you dare say it monk." he warned.
"…love with her." he finished.
"Who says I was ever in love with her." Inuyasha challenged.
"Since you "accidentally" kissed her when you first met, and that time when you took her second kiss. You told me her lips were so soft and I imagine it must have been good if you remembered it while in your transformation state." He mused
Inuyasha's face flushed but looked away to hide it. "I said a lot of things and most of them were about Kikyo."
"Ah but remember after Kagome's fifteen birthday you announced to me that you and Kagome are together and nothing could tear you apart."
Inuyasha cringed at hearing what Miroku told him for everything was true. He remembers how they were 'supposedly' in love.
Flashback
"Kagome." A younger Inuyasha stood underneath a balcony at the Higurashi castle. He watched as a young Kagome stepped out outside and looked down at him.
"Hello Inuyasha. How are you doing?" she asked leaning on her right arm as she looked at him.
"Keh." he crossed his arms over his and leap up landing next to Kagome. He grabbed her to him and kissed her passionately.
Kagome melted into the kiss and wrapped her arms around his neck. She felt his hands roam her back side and she giggles.
Inuyasha was enjoying the kiss and started to rub her backside. He groaned when she began giggling and pulled back. His annoyed expression made Kagome laugh. "Do you have to laugh every time I kiss you." he said pretending to be annoyed as he held her tightly in his arms.
"I'm sorry Inuyasha but I think it is so cute the way you are so affectionate with me alone but so mean when in public. It's like a puppy learning to love its master." she cooed as she reached up and rubbed her fingers against his dog ears. Hearing purr like sounds from Inuyasha she giggled and stared at him with loving eyes as he did her.
"I love you, Inuyasha." She leaned up and lightly kissed him on the lips.
"I love you too, Kagome." He leaned forward and captured her lips again with more passion then before.
End Flashback.
"Yeah well she was just playing me…" It was louder then he wanted to let out and knew Miroku heard it.
"Playing you? Are you sure that she was. Knowing you, maybe you said or did something wrong to her and she got mad and left you. It could all be a misunderstanding…" Miroku rubbed his in confusion. He didn't know Kagome that well but knew that she wouldn't be a heartless person because Sango would never be friends with someone of that kind.
"Positive. She did all the betraying." he said sadly as he turned to watch Kikyo. She was talking to Sango and the demon.
"Why not tell me what happened." Miroku wanted badly to know how those two could be so in love and yet hate each other with their whole being.
Inuyasha sighed and sat down Indian style. Miroku followed suite and sat down waiting for Inuyasha to start. "Anytime you're ready."
Inuyasha sighed and rested his chin on his hand. "Well one year after we were together, during her sixteen birthday she was to announce to her people that she would be wedded to that Houbo guy or not…"
Flashback
Kagome and Inuyasha were by the sacred tree. Kagome sat near the bottom and Inuyasha sat in the tree on a lower trunk. They sat there in silence just enjoying the sounds of birds chirping and the wind softly blowing about.
"Kagome you're not going to marry that idiot are you?" he questioned avoiding any eye contact with Kagome.
She looked up at him puzzled and lightly smiles. "Of course not, why would I marry someone I don't love. I don't care if my parents want me to marry him I'd rather die before that happens." She was taken back when Inuyasha grabbed her shoulders and shook her with a bit of force.
"Don't you ever say that again! I don't know what I'd do if you left me." he yelled and embraced her like she would disappear any second.
Kagome's eyes soften at his comment and hugged him back. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to scar you besides I'll never you leave you…not for anything or anyone…I promise."
A few days later Inuyasha trotted about the miko villages looking for Kagome. He hadn't seen her since that day when they were at the sacred tree. The sun was going down and he decided to head to the castle. He heard some men talking about the ceremony tonight so he knew Kagome was safe. As he entered the ballroom countless people stared at him. Although he had a concealment spell on him his fire rat clothes did not seem formal for the princess's birthday.
He caught sight of her near the end of the room. He pushed through people to get to her but there were too many so he slowed down and took his time to not cause any trouble.
"Good evening everyone and thank you for coming to my daughter's birthday party and maybe a congratulation party for the couple." Lord Higurashi spoke as he winked to the crowd and the crowd laughed at the little joke. "Now here's my daughter, Kagome!" he applauded as did everyone else.
Inuyasha stopped dead in his tracks as he stared at Kagome. She looked beautiful in that green dress but didn't really pay attention to her as he thought of what Lord Higurashi said. 'No she wouldn't…she said…she would never leave me for someone else…' After that thought he paid close attention to what she was saying.
"I would like to thank you for coming here and I know you're not going forgot this day. I, Kagome Kealohilani Higurashi will be getting married to Houjo Kaneshiro."
Houjo came up to Kagome and gave her a kiss as the crowd cheered except one person. Inuyasha looked ready to kill anybody. His eyes were trained on Kagome kissing the guy. How could she betray him? She said she would never ever marry him and here she is kissing and promising to be married to him.
He left the ballroom, out of the castle and into the forest. The trees he passed by fell to the ground. The sounds heard that night was the miko's cheers and a heartbroken half demon prince.
End Flashback
And she was right about not forgetting that day. Inuyasha can never forget what she did to him that day.
Miroku patted his friend on the back. "I'm sorry that had to happen to you my friend but I still believe that we should go save her from Naraku."
"Naraku? Naraku? He's the one that kidnap Kagome? That bastard he won't get away with this! Come on Miroku!"
"I thought you didn't want to save her." Miroku said.
"I never said that!" he yelled back and rushed into the forest.
"Wait Inuyasha!" Miroku smiled and ran to the girls. "Come on ladies we have to hurry after him." Miroku grabbed Sango who grabbed Kikyo who grabbed the demon who grabbed Shippo.
"Wait Miroku let go." Sango said pulling her hand out of Miroku's. "I can run faster if you'd stop tugging on my hand." she yelled running ahead of the others.
Kikyo sighed and started to jog.
"Princess Kikyo if you're still tired you can ride on my back." the demon offered.
Kikyo nodded and the demon transformed into a wolf. The demon's fur is as pure as snow and emerald eyes stared back at her.
"Thank you so much although I never got your name." she said climbing on the demon's back.
"Why her name is…" Shippo piped up but stops as the demon growls at him to shut up.
"Its okay I don't need to know." Kikyo reassured.
Shippo jumped on Miroku's shoulder and they followed after Sango.
Kagome groaned as she began to wake. The pain was still overwhelming but she ignored it. She surveyed where she was, the room had two small candles lit one near her and the other on the opposite side. The dim light didn't help her much to see what the room looks like.
"Help! Somebody please help me!" It was a stupid idea but she had to try. Hearing no answer she sighed and sat back against the wall. She jumped up in surprise, the wall was freezing. She forgot that she tore the back of her kimono fighting with Kagura. She glanced at the chains around her wrists and saw an inscription but it was hard to read. She pointed her finger to use her powers to brighten the room but nothing happened. She concentrated harder yet nothing. Looking at the chains again she saw a blackish purple cloud swirling around the chains.
"No it can't be." her face looked pale as she kept on staring at the chains. 'These are the draining chains Kikyo told me about. They can subdue miko powers whether they're strong or weak but there's only one left in the world…I guess I'm the unfortunate one to have these on and leave me defenseless.' She mentally thought as she laid against the cold wall. She ignored the coldness on her skin only thinking about what is going to happen to her.
"Hello princess" a male voice said.
Kagome looked up but didn't see anyone. "Who are you?" she called
"Never mind me princess for I'd be more concern about what's going to happen to you."
"Miroku where the hell did you say Naraku's hideout is?" Inuyasha and the others have been running in the forest for a while and Inuyasha just figured out they weren't getting anywhere but going in circles.
"I never told you where it is. You ran off before I could tell you." Miroku said panting from running too much.
Inuyasha grabbed Miroku by the collar of his robes. "So you mean to tell me we've been running for nothing!" he exclaimed as he growled.
"Don't blame me! I'm not the one who ran off blindly into the forest without discussing everything with the others!" Miroku shot back and grabs hold of Inuyasha's shirt.
"Stop it you two." Sango screamed breaking the apart. "We don't have time for this. Right now Kagome is in danger and if you two keep on arguing who knows what will happen to her." Sango grabbed both males and brought them closer to her. "Now grow up and Miroku tell us where Naraku is hiding and Inuyasha you better be quiet and listen, got it?"
Both males cringed at the loudness of Sango's voice screaming in their ears.
You can't order me around!" Inuyasha yelled back at Sango.
Sango turned around, fire burning in her eyes and her grip tightened. She was going to kill him if he didn't cooperate.
Inuyasha mentally shrinks as Sango was burning to kill him. He hate to admit it but Sango was very serious and he was afraid of her in her madness state. "Y-yeah I'll listen." his voice became small and Sango smiled.
"I'll always obey you dear Sango!" Miroku exclaimed happily grabbing hold of her butt.
"I'll kill you monk!" Sango turned to punch him but he ran away. "Come back here Miroku!" she yelled chasing after him.
Minutes later a happy Sango sat next to Kikyo and the demon while Miroku laid next to Inuyasha and Shippo. Miroku had many hand prints in his face and bruises.
"Okay Naraku is hiding up in Mount Hakurei in a hidden village. It has been said that the village was only for demons and mikos who wanted to live in peace." Miroku said.
"Strange that I've never heard of any village containing demons and mikos." Sango said.
"Yes well the village has been empty for almost four thousand years."
"But how do you know about all of this monk?" Kikyo asked.
"I do my research so I'm prepared for things like this." Miroku boasted.
"Yeah when all the females deny him." Shippo said and the whole group laughed except Inuyasha and Miroku.
"Miroku you better run because I'm going kill you." Inuyasha said dangerously.
"Why would you want to do that for?" he asked backing away.
"Because Mount Hakurei…IS ALL THE WAY BACK THERE BY THAT DAMN CAVE!" Inuyasha screams as he ran after Miroku.
The girls and Shippo followed after them not noticing they were heading to Mount Hakurei and to Kagome.
Yes I know what you're thinking…Kagome isn't mean and would never do that to him…well it'll explain Kagome's part about the breakup next chapter and don't worry I'll be updating the next chapter in a few days so you won't have to wait long.
