I am so sorry about the late update! I have been busy, but I'm so happy I finally got to upload. Oh, and check out Harper Morgan's new story In War and Love. Read and review!

A/N: I own nothing but the plot


I wave bye to Miroku and Sango as I make my way to Naraku's room. I walk into the almost empty room and Naraku looks up.

"You're early," he smiles, "you can get started then. You may actually finish today."

I intend to, I think to myself as I pick up the markers and begin to work out more problems.

Koga comes into the room as soon as the bell rings, like he's been waiting forever. "Naraku," he glances at me and automatically lowers his voice, "I found the kid."

I drop the marker I'm using.

Naraku and Koga both look at me as I grab the eraser. I move to the end of the whiteboard with the rest of the problems on it and start erasing.

"What the heck are you doing?" Koga starts to walk over to me but Naraku stops him.

"Stop it idiot!"

"What?" Koga says with shock in his voice.

I write down two lines of numbers. The first set of numbers: 39, 6345-22, 4186; the second set: 10101957. I turn to Naraku as a smile slowly creeps into his face.

"Koga, get the car ready."

Koga smirks and runs out of the room in haste.

"You're coming with us," Naraku closes the door, "Though I'm sure you already know that."

I nod.

"Have you known this the entire time?"

I nod once again.

"Do you know how this is going to end?"

I shake my head no.

He laughs, "You know everything except the most crucial part and yet you still came."

Koga opens the door to the entrance of the school, "The car is ready."

Naraku grabs my upper arm roughly, "But you know what's on the line don't you?"

I glare at him as he drags me out of the building.

"Why is she going? I thought you wanted her to show us where the Jewel is." Koga asks.

Naraku smirks, his eyes filling with malice, "She might still be of use to us."

"Okay, but you don't have to drag her around. From what you've told me she's known this the whole time."

Naraku rolls his eyes and releases me, "Let me tell you something boy," he picks Koga up by his shirt, "I don't need your help. You are disposable."

Koga flails his legs as he tries to escape, "Let me go."

"You either listen to me or things will end badly for you."

"I won't help you with this." He growls.

"Fine." Naraku drops him on the concrete and throws me in the car. The car starts moving after some coordinates are put into his GPS. "Thank you for the directions," he looks at me, "We have to make a stop on the way. I'm sure you won't mind." HIs sick laughter fills the car.


The car stops abruptly and I hear Naraku get out, slamming his door. I am left in silence with nothing but the soft purr of the engine until he opens the door, throwing a small boy in the backseat with me.

I pull the unconscious boy, that looks to be about seven or eight years old, into my lap and I check to make sure he's aright.

"Kagome I would like you to meet your brother," Naraku laughs and looks at me in the rearview mirror, "or half-brother.

I stare in shock at the little boy; I knew he was involved in this, but I didn't know he was my...brother. Can I let him be a part of Naraku's scheme? Even if he wasn't my brother, he would still be in danger. There's no way of getting him out of here before Naraku can notice he's gone.

Plus we're in a moving car so that's a bit of a problem.

Either way, I have to finish this.

The boy-my brother-stirrs in my arms as he begins to wake up.

"Where...am I?" He looks at me, "Who're you?" He sits up in the seat and looks around frantically, "Where's the creepy man?"

I point at Naraku driving in the front seat.

My brother starts sobbing, "I was playing near the road and then...and then he drove up to my house and that's all I remember!"

I hug him and rock him back and forth calmingly.

He wipes his eyes of the last remaining tears, looking up at me, "Who are you?" He asks again.

I shake my head, trying to tell him I don't talk.

"What's wrong? Can't you talk?"

I shake my head again.

"Oh. Do toy know the man?'

I nod sadly.

"I feel bad for you."

I smile at him.
