Chapter 37: Rescue

Once again dedicated to Kelsey House, because she waited up all night till I posted this. And it's 2:18am right now.

Kagome turned her head to look at the man that called her name, she didn't say anything, she was too shocked to respond. Lord Rei picked her up off the floor by her arm and held her tightly.

"Who are you?" Lord Rei's voice was strict and frightening. He looked down at the young woman's expression that he had in his grip then looked back at Inuyasha, "I see."

Inuyasha growled, thee sight of Kagome looking the way she did, made him drown in his hatred for this demon. Kagome looked sick, beaten, and weak. "You fucking bastard! Who the hell do you think you are for doing this to her?!" Inuyasha yelled with great force.

"Now now, let's not get so hasty. I was just having fun," he then dropped her on the floor and then took a few steps towards Inuyasha, "Renjii, take this woman into the cellars, no food or water for three days, I shall deal with her later."

Renjii quickly picked up Kagome and headed towards the door. "Inuyasha!" She yelled and struggled to get out of his grasp.

Right when Inuyasha was going to run over to her and kill the mangy servant who and dragging her, Lord Rei moved in front of him with impressive speed. "Where are you going, I haven't killed you yet. He smiled and swiped his hand causing Inuyasha to fall back with an injured arm.

"Let go of me!" Kagome pushed his body away from hers.

"Silence yourself woman!" Renjii yelled then hit her on her head until she knocked out. And he dragged her out of the room.

"I don't know who you are, or who you think you are, but you're going to regret what you are," Inuyasha stood up slowly. "Feh," He smiled evilly as he pulled out his sword.

Miroku and Sango ran up the path and finally reached the top to find different women in amazement for the barrier to be down. The first thing they both spotted was a woman on her knee's looking down at her hands. Miroku walked up to her quickly and Sango right behind. "Excuse me Miss."

Sakari looked up and at a face she's never seen before. "Yes?" Her voice was full of worry.

Miroku knelt down to get a better look at her, "What are all you women doing in a place like this?"

She looked back down at her hands, picked the dirt that was caught underneath her nail. "I have been here for many years, and most of the other women. We have been working on building this mansion all our lives by orders of our demon Lord Rei," she paused and looked at him, "I'm so glad someone has come to help us!" small tears ran down her dirty cheeks.

Miroku looked at her serious and concerning. "Sango, you take care of these women, I'm going to go look for Inuyasha, I feel a powerful demonic aurora." He stood up.

"Wait!" Sakari shouted. "You know Inuyasha?" She asked impatiently.

Miroku looked down at her, "Yes, how do you know him?"

"A dear friend told me about him. That's why I called him when I saw him walked down bellow; my friend is in trouble…"

"You friend isn't by any chance…" Sango tried to guess if it was her friend.

"Her name is Kagome," She looked at Sango.

Renjii walked down a flight of stairs until he got to the bottom of them, there were five cellars down there, two were already occupied. He opened on up and threw Kagome on the dirt floor, half way unconscious.

He slammed the door and walked all the way back up to the top.

---

There they were, the two of them, standing in the middle of the room holding their guard up, waiting for someone to attack first.

'I Don't have time for this!' Inuyasha thought, and then growled. He put a step forward and swiped his sword, revealing the wind scar.

Lord Rei dodged it then his hand glowed and threw a ball of power towards Inuyasha. ((As you can tell I suck at battle scenes so I'm going to get it over and done with, sorry…)) Inuyasha swiped his sword into a massive attack, the one and only, Back Lash Wave.

"What's this?" Lord Rei said as the light absorbed him completely. Inuyasha fell to his knees. He gave every ounce of his energy to defeat Him. And now he had to gasp for some air. Then he thought of Kagome.

He lifted himself up and put his sword away and ran out the wooden door he saw the servant walk through. He smelt the air to pick up the scent and followed it distinctively. When he ran down the wooden stairs he kicked open the door that Kagome was in.

There she was… Lying on the floor, covered in dirt from head to two. The once nice Kimono was ripped and dirty. She was so skinny, and fragile to look at. "Kagome…" Inuyasha breathed as he rushed to her side. "Dammit! Open your eyes!" He lifted her up from the ground to sit up.

Kagome opened her eyes and the sight of Inuyasha made her jump with joy. "Inuyasha!" she jumped and wrapped her arms around his neck.

Inuyasha wrapped him arms around her waist embracing her tighter. Then he pulled her off, grabbed her shoulders to look at her, "Are you hurt? What did they do to you?"

Kagome looked down away from his sight, "I had to work several hours and only two meals a day, sometimes even one. Then I call called to Lord Rei… And that's where you came in," she looked at him, "Oh Inuyasha! You came right on time! How did you find me?" She asked.

"A woman, ran out calling my name… She said you were in trouble."

"Sakari risked her life... For me," she said to herself, "What happened to her?" She asked.

"She' all right, Sango and Miroku are with her, I'm pretty sure."

Kagome looked at him, "Can we, leave? I don't want to be down here any longer…" She said as he helped her up. She fixed the kimono so it wouldn't be reveling everything. "Inuyasha let those girls out…" She said as she saw the other women.

After that was done, Inuyasha helped her up the stairs and to the outside to find everyone, including Sakari. Most women were rushing out of this place, trying to escape as they can.

"Sakari!" Kagome ran towards her and hugged her tightly.

Sakari returned the favor and then let go, "Are you okay? What did that bastard do you to you?" then she paused and looked at Inuyasha, "You killed him right? Did you get the shards?"

"Fuck…" Inuyasha said.

"I'll get them," Miroku said then ran off, he probably wanted to see all the pretty girls.

Then Sakari turned her attention back to Kagome, "Inuyasha got there before he can do anything serious, if I would be there any longer, I'd be in the cellars for three days…" Then she looked at Sango. "Sango!" She ran and hugged her.

"I missed you so much!" Sango exclaimed and hugged her back.

Right then Kagome's stomach growled. She let go and put her hand over her stomach, "We should go and eat and take a bath and sleep after Miroku gets back, I'm dying!" Kagome complained.

Sakari looked at the sun set, "Well you guys better be going, the sun is going down."

"Well you're coming too!" Kagome said, "I promised you, I'd take you back to your village."

Sakari smiled brightly, "Thank you, Kagome!"

Miroku walked out with the shards in his hand, "Alright, let's go." He handed the jewel shards to Kagome.

Kagome put the shards in her kimono and leaned against Inuyasha. She looked at Sakari and leaned in over to her, "Promise me you won't say a word to any of them, especially Inuyasha." Kagome whispered in her ear.

"About what?" Sakari whispered back.

"The you know what," she said in a tone that made her remember.

"Oh! Alright."

She leaned back , her head hasn't felt something so soft in a long time. And it felt good.

To Be Continued…

Author's Note: Well to answer most of your questions, this story kind of doesn't have a plot anymore really. I'm just kind of going on about things I guess. But when I get to the end, there's going to be sort of un expecting… So beware. Anyways… Hope you liked. And once again, I don't feel like going back and correcting my errors. So be creative and fix them yourself in your head.
