Kagome woke in a dark cold room. Her once bright dress covered in dirt and little drops of blood. Kagome knew where she had to be and then the unknown of her friends and brother hit her. "LET ME OUT!" Kagome screamed as she slammed her hands against her door a large wave of energy shot out ripping part of her dress. Kagome slid down the door tears running down her face."Please let them be alright." Kagome sat in the dark alone with her worries.
As the sun started to rise Sesshomaru came to a stop deep in the woods the others coming to a stop right behind him. "We need to rest." Sesshomaru spoke as he scanned the woods around them. "Yes we have been running all night and we are no help if we are too tired to fight." Sango said as she took hold of Miroku's arm he wanted to keep running but his body just couldn't go any more at the moment. Kikyo and Inuyasha gathered wood for a small fire while Sango hunted some food. Sesshomaru stood he wanted to run off and Miroku could see that. "My lord no one is to blame for this but the monster. Kagome wanted all of us to a moment to act like we would if he wasn't here. She is stronger than most and I don't think he has plans on just...taking her life." Sesshomaru turned he wasn't the only one taking this lose to heart. "Monk I fear that Naraku... may be falling for Kagome. When we battled him and he truly saw her he made a comment on her beauty. That monster ...who knows what he wants from her anymore." Sesshomaru sat as the others returned and they took a little rest. The darkness of the deep woods blocking the morning sun.
Kagome woke to find that her small room was all made of stone she had no way of breaking out. She then heard someone at the door she jumped and moved to the back wall. She held her breath when the door slammed open and a huge snake demon came flying at her fast. Kagome jumped as he reached out with his teeth about to bite. Kagome tripped on her dress but still got up fast and with her fist punched hard in the snakes neck and he started to cough. Kagome knew she had no choice as she then kicked her foot up and with all she had kicked the snake out of her room. She sat there on the ground breathing hard when she heard clapping. "That my girl is amazing. Your parents would be proud. You have her kick and his timing with the points." Kagome looked up as Naraku stood in the doorway. "You have killed so many. You are a monster." Kagome sat she knew that just to push past Naraku would use up so much energy and without knowing where she was she wouldn't get far. "That is one way to look at all this I know. I needed power I was born to rule! You are the key my dear even back then I just never saw it till now." Kagome moved back she held tight to her inner soul she would die maybe but he would not get her soul. "Kagome I have no plans on killing you. I want to use you but not kill you." Kagome was more afraid now as the door shut once more. She was alone in a torn and useless dress. All she could think about was those back home and if they all were alright. Kagome climbed onto the small cot and tried to sleep.
Miroku and Sesshomaru were the first to fall into a sleep the others watched they had pushed so hard since Kagome was taken. Sango covered Miroku with a light blanket while Inuyasha did rounds. "Sesshomaru will kill me for not waking him but he needs rest." Miroku and Sesshomaru found each other in a dream it was dark and cold. :"I guess we fell asleep." Miroku said as they walked in the dark . "Yes seems we did. Where are we?" Miroku shook his head then the room grew a little brighter and there on a small cot lay Kagome in a torn dress. "This is a dream right?" Miroku said as he started to walk closer to Kagome's body. "We are asleep but I would never dream of her here." Miroku looked over at the demon. "So you dream about my sister." Sesshomaru shrugged his shoulders as he too moved closer to the sleeping miko. They were now right next to her when she opened her eyes. "You guys are alive." She tried to smile as she reached out. "I was worried that you were hurt or worse." "Kagome do you know where you are?" Sesshomaru asked as he took Kagome's hand. Kagome shook her head. "I blacked out right as Ichiro attacked and woke up in this room. He's creepier than I thought. He..." Miroku hugged his sister "WE are coming for you little one." Kagome smiled as tears ran down her face. "I am afraid brother. I want to be strong but I really am afraid." Miroku held Kagome tighter as the room started to fade. "Hold on miko we are coming!" Sesshomaru yelled out as she was gone and they were left in a cold dark room.
Miroku shot up from his dream and looked around. "Miroku are you alright?" Sango asked as she ran to his side. "I saw Kagome in my dream. She is all alone in a dark room." Sango held Miroku tight as Sesshomaru started to stand. "You saw her too?" Inuyasha asked as he came from his post. "I did Kagome is afraid something that I have never seen in her before. We leave in ten minutes." Sesshomaru looked deep in the woods and there he saw it a small light leading deeper into the woods.
Kagome woke tears running down her face. She looked around they both were right here with her. She sat on the cot as she picked up on noises right outside her door. She felt fear running through her as her heart was racing. "Why? I can't seem to catch my breathe and this fear is racing through me." Kagome was thinking when the door opened and she jumped as Naraku rushed her into a corner. "Your as lovely as your mother. You know that right? (Kagome froze as Naraku placed a hand on her cheek.) I meet her before you were born. I was attacked outside the village and came in for help your father saw my evil tried to send me away but your mother, your sweet lovely mother stopped him and took me into your home. The two healed me and took care of me. I feel in love with your mother even though I knew that she would be with your father till the end. Your father ... I will say this he is the smartest monk I have ever meet. He saw the darkness around me and knew that I would never change. The night before I left they had to leave me alone I sat and I wanted power I wanted to show your father that I could rule. (Kagome was in shock she couldn't talk but then a thought hit her.) "You were Human." Yes Kagome I was a human that night then the next day when I was walking out when I cam across the demon that your parents had fought the night before. It was the spider demon that I am today. He was going to die but he asked me if I wanted his power to rule. He could see me as your father did. I gave into him and we joined. The only way though that I would have full control of his power was if I took his revenge. (Kagome didn't want to hear anymore and tried to move but Naraku slammed his hands to her sides and moved his body closer to hers.) I then went around slowly at first killing members that would come into the woods and then I found I could take their souls. Your father realized it was me and one night with a group from the village and hunted me down. He should have taken my heart but they just cut me into pieces. I was weak and angry but I grew, then you were born. You were loved by everyone in the village at first no one told you that I am sure but you were. It was when people started to dissappear that they thought you were a curse for something they did. Then you were a target and your parents kept you alone in that house where they thought you were safe. Then I found the twins my babies who stood by me and fought for me taking souls to make me stronger. Then the spider needed the souls of the village so I had my girls attack. Your parents were the last and the hardest to kill. Your mother fought hard for you as did your father but as we both know they lost their lives to me. (Kagome started to cry as Naraku moved his hand across her lips) I never once thought I would be given the chance to have her again but then I finally got to see you up close. I knew that I was given that chance not with her but you my dear will be mine. (Kagome wanted to run. )" Naraku started to laugh and Kagome found her inner strength. "Get off me!" Kagome was able to use her aura and tossed Naraku back at the door as she slid down the wall. Naraku stood a large smile on his face. "You truly are a beauty. Your parents would be so proud. " Naraku started to laugh as he shut the door. Kagome let her face fall into her hands. "Please Sesshomaru please hurry." Kagome whispered as she cried a little.
