Naraku's Plot

[ Sakura is wondering a way from a village that everyone has stopped at for the night as she remembers everything that has happened in recent days...first they met a Demon Slayer who's family were killed by Naraku an Enemy of Inuyasha who has done nothing but search for Shards of the Jewel using any trick nesscessery and then finding out about the Sacred Jewel and that It has come from a Relative of her mother...Prietess Midoriko who told her all about the reason she had the jewel in her body and that she took back the Staff of Light that belonged to her. Then the group set off where they found themselves helping a village save there children from a Fake Water god. There is no telling what will happen next as Sakura sighs and jumps into a tree and sits down in it remembering why she was there.]

''Hey...Sakura...why are you out here all by yourself? says Shippo.

[Sakura surprised looks at the small fox demon who is sitting in front of her on the tree. She turns away and sighs sadly]

''I just needed to be alone for a while I've never been really good with people around. says Sakura

[Sakura sighs as she lays her head on her knees as Shippo looks at her seeing she was suddenly sad for some reason..]

''What's wrong? says Shippo

''it's been a month now since I've been over here in this time and I miss my Mom she is problery worried about me. says Sakura

''I almost forget you are from Kagome's time too...but unlike her you can't go back home. says Shippo

'No...I can't I guess because I was born here in another life and so I'm stuck here and somehow I have to live my life like this a Demon. says Sakura

''it's not so bad...you are a Strong demon and really good with your magic and sword. speaking of...maybe you should give Inuyasha some pointers? says Shippo

''Hmm. says Sakura

[Confused Sakura looks at Shippo who is pointing at Inuyasha who is practicing with his sword Tetsusaiga Shippo jumps over to him. Sakura follows him]

''don't be disheartened. even if it was sheer luck, you saved us all. [lying back with his hands behind his neck] ''Next time, just get lucky again. says Shippo

[Turns around to face Shippo and swings his sword in direction] ''Tetsusaiga says Inuyasha

shrieks in horror and leaps to another branch] ''Hey Inuyasha! do you want to kill me? says Shippo [waving his fists madly in the air]

'[to himself] ''is it luck, after all? says Inuyasha

[madder] ''are you listening to me? don't get lucky now! says Shippo

''shut up! and quit calling it luck! says Inuyasha

[Sakura walks over to Inuyasha seeing how frustrated he is and sighs as she takes out her own sword]

''Hey...Inuyasha do you need some help Practicing? says Sakura

''Um...I don't know...the power worked last time I just don't know what I'm missing? says Inuyasha

''Okay...one thing you can't swing your sword around expecting it to hit something because that doesn't work all the time...and second...[she touches his nose with her finger] ''use this to smell the energy flow between your sword and your Enemies...Like this. [She stands in front of Inuyasha with her sword pointing at him urging him to take the same stance] ''Can you smell the flow yet? it's called the Wind Scar...I've learned this from dad long time ago...not realizing he was teaching me how to defend myself with a Powerful Energy...and you have the same Ultimate power too. says Sakura

'The Wind Scar..? says Inuyasha

''You are a Dog breed and it's very important to use your nose at times in battle to smell where the hit will come...so here I come...says Sakura

[she runs towards him and makes a slash at his midsection which he quickly dodge and blocked the sword from striking at him again and then suddenly that was when he smelled something between them...then a whirl wind shows a light in the middle and he suddenly strikes it...she gasps and jumps back away from the wind scar as it finally blasts at her and she uses a barrier to block it...the Dust settles and she looks around to see Inuyasha looked stunned and runs over to her]

''Whoa...that was...cool...That was the Wind Scar. says Inuyasha

''yeah...it worked...all you have to do is practice using your nose Inuyasha it is there for a reason let it help you during battle...don't just relay on the sword alone. says Sakura

[Inuyasha was smiling truly and pats Sakura on her shoulder]

''Thanks I really apprecite it...I should Practice with you more often. says Inuyasha

''Maybe again I can teach you to do combat fighting without your sword...there will come times when you won't have it and you will need other skills to help you. says Sakura

''you got it...Let's go find the others and eat all that Practicing made me hungry. says Inuyasha

[Sakura follows after Inuyasha as Shippo jumps on her shoulder not realizing that someone was watching them from the forest...a Baboon Man with glimling red eyes hatching a plan]

[It's day time and Inuyasha, Kagome, Sakura, Shippo, Miroku and Sango are setting off]

[In front of Kagome's huge Sack] ''Now then, time to go. [tries to lift it but only manages to drag it several steps] ''Kagome, what did you bring? it's much heavier than before! says Shippo

[walking along with her bicycle] ''Uh-huh...I have a test next week, so I brought as many books as I could carry. says Kagome

''You have it rough, huh? says Sango

''Miroku says you should just flunk or something like that. says Shippo

''Not Miroku too? [turning] ''My brother, Sota who's only in grade school, says If you repeat grades six times, I'll be in the same grade as you and I'll help you study, [Sakura smiles a little hearing about Sota and school she walks ahead]

''Sakura wait...what's wrong? says Sango

[Sakura turns back towards them sadly] ''It's just I was from Kagome's time as well and know all about her school...it's just I can't go back home like she can...and I miss everyone. says Sakura

''Oh...I'm so sorry...says Sango

[Kagome realizes how upset Sakura is and walks over to her] ''Hey Sakura...don't be upset I promise you that I will bring stuff back from there that belongs to you next time...what is it that you would like me to bring? says Kagome

''You bring to much as it Kagome I wouldn't want to burden you...but if anything that I want...It's my Journal and Sketch book that one I keep drawings in...and maybe Look in on my mom and see how she's doing. says Sakura

[Kagome closes her eyes and didn't want to tell her friend about what's going on back at home so she will keep it to herself for now ]

''Okay I will do that. says Kagome

''Thank you Kagome. says Sakura

[Sakura walks ahead of everyone as Inuyasha comes over to Kagome]

''What was that about with Sakura? says Inuyasha

''she wanted me to check up on her mother back in our time when I go back...but she doesn't know about her mom. says Kagome

[Kagome is sadly looking at Sakura from behind]'' what's wrong with her mother? Says Miroku

''She has been so worried and sick about her daughter these last month and the cops back home stopped looking for her because they think she's dead...Her mother died of a broken heart...she didn't last long. says Kagome

''Oh...No poor Sakura...she doesn't have her mother anymore. says Shippo

''Well...why aren't you telling her she deserves to know. says Inuyasha

''I will...when the time is right and I just don't want to upset her then she already is. says Kagome

[Inuyasha shakes his head and the others quickly caught up to Sakura who has stopped over a body that collapsed in midway]

''Inuyasha...Hurry! says Sakura

[Inuyasha and the others surrounding the collapsed man]

''[getting up from his kneeling position] ''he's not breathing. seems like an ordinary village. says Miroku

[thinking] ''These scars...aren't from a sword. says Sango

[Kagome offers a prayer]

''he's not the only one who was killed. says Inuyasha

''huh? says Kagome

[Glancing sideways] ''the wind is carrying the smell of blood. not a few...many have been killed. says Inuyasha

[They run to a Devastated village. Inuyasha and the others rushes towards several corpses on the ground.]

''the entire village? says Miroku

''Hey! anyone here! says Sakura

''we must find out what happened. let's split up and search. says Miroku

''Good idea. says Inuyasha

''hold it! says Sango

[Bends down to pick up a rock. Sango looks around and throw it at a nearby hut. the Hut immediately explodes]

''Don't move! traps are everywhere! if you make a move, your legs may be blown off! says Sango

''what? even underground? says Shippo

''then even around the bodies? says Miroku

'Probably. says Sango

''what a cruel thing to do? says Kagome

''someone tries to help, and they're also blown up. so heartless! says Sakura

[pissed] 'well, let's find out what this guy is planning! says Inuyasha

''Inuyasha! it's dangerous to move! says Kagome

''as if I know how to stay still! says Inuyasha

[Inuyasha sprints and leaps into the air, his transformed Tetsusaiga slices a hut, which explodes. the Silhouetted person at Naraku's castle previously leaps out of the hut. he take out a sickle and swings it at Inuyasha. who blocks it. the sickle returns to the Mysterious person]

''Is he the one? says Inuyasha

''[in disbelief] ''A Mere child...killed all the villagers? says Miroku

''Impossible says Kagome

''That chain...and on his body...there's blood splattered all over, he's a vicious kid, why'd you do this? what're you up to? says Inuyasha

''[trembling in horror and disbelief, thinking] ''Kohaku! says Sango

[thinking] ''that attire...[looks back at Sango] 'is the same as Sango's...a Slayer's says Sakura

[Kirara meows and walks forward a few steps]

[looking at Kirara thinking] ''Kirara is...but how...? [Looks forward, speaking softly] ''Kohaku...are you? says Sango

[thinking] ''Sango...what did you say? says Kagome

[Kohaku turns around and runs away]

''Halt [Inuyasha steps on a mine during his chase and it explodes. he is uninjured, but is thrown backwards]''Damn! says Inuyasha

''Kirara! says Sango

[Kirara leap onto Sango's palm. Sango flings her into the sky and Kirara transforms into her Flying form. Sango leaps and grabs on to Kirara's neck fur. Kohoku runs through a barrier where a Sacred jewel shows in his back and Sango and Kirara follow as well.]

[Sakura and Inuyasha follows after them with the others and stop before the barrier]

''They went through the barrier? says Sakura

''yeah...Kagome, what you said earlier...is that really true? says Inuyasha

''No mistake about it. Sango called him Kohaku. Sango told me that her Younger brother was killed in that castle occupied by Naraku. says Kagome

''and he had a Sacred Jewel fragment imbedded in his back. we've heard that one before. says Sakura

''it's Naraku's same old trick, forcing Sango to fight when she was in total anguish. says Inuyasha

''then Naraku is manipulating Kohaku this time? says Shippo

''Sango is probably aware of it. the barrier allowed only Sango to go through. I have a bad feeling about this. says Miroku

[Sango and Kirara. they land and Sango get off to face Kohoku. Kirara is hostile towards him.]

''[comforting Kirara] ''let me see your face. [Kohaku takes off his mask. he looks at Sango expressionless] ''Kohaku...[walks towards him, thinking] ''you are alive, Kohaku! says Sango

''Are you happy to see your brother alive? [Sango is taken back by the voice. a Silhouette of the person appears behind Kohaku. it's turns out to be Naraku in a Baboon suit.] ''It's been quite some time, Sango. says Naraku

''Naraku! says Sango

[laughs] ''aren't you going to thank me? says Naraku

''what? says Sango

''I salvaged your brother's life. when he was killed by those arrows at the castle, Kohaku's life should have ended. but I saved him. you should know this well, the power of the Sacred Jewel fragment, when you had it inside you, you fought Inuyasha better than evenly matched. says Naraku

''Shut up. says Sango

''so it is now inside Kohaku. he is able to stand before you becaue of the Sacred Jewel. if it is extracted, he will die. understand, Sango? Kohaku's life is in your hands. [Sango gasps] ''bring me The Tetsusaiga, Inuyasha's sword. and make sure you bring that...Lovely Fire demon to me...then I shall let Kohaku have eternal life. [laughs] says Naraku

[Furious] ''I will not be bribed [Sango gets ready to swing her boomarang but is stopped by Kohaku's sickle.] ''Kohaku why? why protect Naraku? says Sango

''I've made him forget. I've erased all memories of you and of himself. a fighting machine has no need of feelings. he slaughtered an entire village. Kohaku has become a fine slayer. says Naraku

[furious] ''why you...[Dashes towards Naraku and Kohaku Naraku emits a purple mist, stopping Sango] ''Miasma! says Sango

''you will bring me the Tetsusaiga and the Fire demoness...[the Miasma grows stronger and explodes] ''I will be waiting...Sango. says Naraku

[Naraku and Kohaku disappears with the miasma. Sango looks up to the sky in silence]

[ A Silhouette of Sango and Kirara appears from the woods, walking towards Inuyasha and the others]

''Sango! [walks to Sango] ''that boy...your brother. says Kagome

''[furious and interrupts] ''he wasn't Kohaku says Sango

''Sango..says Kagome

''well, the main thing is that you returned unharmed Sango...the one who laid this trap, the one behind the barrier, was it Naraku? says Sakura

''Uh-huh. says Sango

''then you must be exhausted. let us return to the village and get some rest. says Miroku

Monk...[Miroku pauses] ''Please, hold a service for the villagers. says Sango

[Miroku nods]

[Night in the village. Miroku and Sakura are in a ditch. Miroku is shoveling while Sakura holds a basket]

''what do you think Miroku? says Sakura

''about what? says Miroku

''she said she met Naraku. I wondered what happened to Sango behind the barrier. says Sakura

''probably that Naraku is on manipulating her brother, Kohaku. says Miroku

''he tried to get Sango to fight Kohaku! Naraku is unforgivable! says Kagome

[she came over with a empty basket angry at Naraku] Sango can't slay her own brother. let's leave her alone for a while. until she's ready to talk to us about it. says Miroku

[Inuyashs walks over to them] ''How can you be so nonchalant? he may be Naraku's puppet with a Sacred Jewel fragment, Kohaku's the one who slaughterd this entire village, if Sango can't kill him, I'll do it in one swing [looking into the distance and shouting] ''Hey Sango, any complaints? says Inuyasha

[Sango stands up. turns around and gives Inuyasha the evil eye. she walks away in silent anger.]

''Inuyasha! you are so insenitive! [she chases after Sango] ''Sango, wait! says Kagome

''but, practically speaking, what will we do? Kill him? says Miroku

''of course. says Inuyasha

''No matter what? says Sakura

''of course! think about it! Naraku sent Sango's brother believing that we wouldn't be able to kill him. no way will I fall for that? says Inuyasha

[serious tone] ''Don't try to hard. says Miroku

[momentarily lost for words] ''Shaddup, will ya? damn! [Miroku walks away from Inuyasha leaving him alone with Sakura] ''I hate my role but I'll have to do it. though I feel sorry for Sango. says Inuyasha

''Okay Inuyasha be serious for a moment...what if Kohaku was Kikyo? says Sakura

'[shocked Inuyasha turns to Sakura] ''What? says Inuyasha

''if that was Kikyo and her life was being controlled by Naraku...dead or alive would you kill her? [Inuyasha was speechless and didn't know what to say] ''that is what I thought it's not so easily to do after all...think about it. says Sakura

[she pats his shoulder as she passed him leaving him with his thoughts]
