I don't own the characters
"So you've arrived," Kabuto greeted and walked alongside Sasuke.
"I wasn't aware that you were bringing a plus one. Especially a girl." Kabuto glared at Kagome's unconscious body.
"Is that a problem?"
"No, no. Well, it wouldn't be a problem if she wasn't a pest," Kabuto glared and grabbed the girl and slung her against one of the cages.
He continuously kicked her stomach. His hand then flowed with chakra. Thrusting his hand downward he aimed for the girl's stomach ready to kill her. But luck was not on his side.
His hand was just a centimeter away from the female's abdomen. But then, Kagome awoke. Supporting her body with her arms she went into a slanted handstand and whirled her body around, putting her body in position. B-boying, she kicked Kabuto multiple times and stopped when he was flung to the other side of the corridor.
"Kabuto, that's enough." Sasuke intervened as Kabuto was ready to start another fight.
"Where the hell did you take me Sasuke?!" Kagome shouted and turned to throw a glare his way only to realize he was gone.
Then everything went black again.
~~~
Kagome woke up in a cell. There were other people there and some corpses as well. It stunk. The stench burned her nose and made her eyes go teary. It smelt like rotting remains, turd and blood. It was dark, but she still saw that there were dozens of other cages, maybe even hundreds.
"What the hell! Sasuke get me out of here!" Kagome screams, she pushed and pulled on the bars of the cage. Unfortunately, they didn't budge an inch.
"There's no point in doing that," one prisoner said.
"What are you talking about?! I'm not supposed to be here. Sasuke, where the hell are you?!" Kagome yelled frantically.
It was silent. No one was there. No one was coming to save her.
"You can't escape this." The same prisoner said. "There is no hope of getting out of this cell."
"That's what you think. I'm getting out of here one way or another." Kagome growled.
She started her transformation. Just as her morph started the cuffs on her wrists took action. The cuffs shocked her, stopping her transformation. It burned her entire body from the inside out. Falling to her knees Kagome panted at the intense pain. It lasted for a few more seconds before going away.
"So I see you've tried out my new toy," Kabuto said callously and as he walked up to Kagome's cage.
"What the hell are you doing here," Kagome questioned and stuck her arm out between the bars. She tried to grab his throat but to no avail.
"I thought you would be a little smarter than that." He smirked and glared down at Kagome. 'I'm the one that brought you here, so why wouldn't I come down to keep you company?"
"Go to hell," Kagome growled. "Sasuke is going to come for me."
Kabuto chuckled.
"What's so funny?"
"As far as anybody knows you're in a master room. Sasuke thinks you're still unconscious." Kabuto looked down at her relishing in the look of anger and discouragement.
"I'm going to get out of here," Kagome muttered. But it sounded like she was trying to convince herself.
"You have no chance in hell of escaping, especially with those things on you," Kabuto gestured to the handcuffs on her wrists. "Those babies react to any type of power up, or transformation you use. Whether you try to summon your powers or just get a rise out of me. The only thing you'll get in return is quite a shock."
"Haha, very funny," Kagome mocked him.
"They react to any change in your power levels. So don't think of summoning anything in that pretty little head of yours, you'll only get hurt." Kabuto smirked and walked away.
"Hey! Just where do you think you're going, Kabuto?!" Kagome shouted at him.
Said man didn't answer and kept walking to the only entrance and exit of the confinement area.
"Damn it, Kabuto." Kagome sank back against a wall in her own despair.
"I told you. There's no getting out of this," the prisoner sighed.
~~~
Kagome slowly made her way back into the cell.
"Move it." Kabuto kicked her in her back making her fall to the floor flat on her stomach.
A shout rose from her lips. She laid there, her breathing raspy. Her entire body hurt.
"Pathetic." Kabuto sneered at her before taking his leave of her.
"This isn't that bad," she mumbled to herself with bloodshot eyes. "Naraku would do worse, remember? Remember?"
Picking herself up she kneeled hunched over. Hugging herself she continued to mumble to herself. The open whip wounds on her back burned like fire. The bruises that traveled on her legs ached. Her wrists, ankles, and neck sore from the tight chains.
Kabuto shut the cell close and locked it. "I'll see you tomorrow." He started to walk away but then stopped. "If you're wondering, Sasuke isn't worried about you at all. I told him you woke up and didn't want to see him. He couldn't care less that your presence was missing." He then left Kagome in her thoughts.
"So I really am alone here," Kagome muttered and watched as a rat scurried over the corpses and ate at the rotting flesh alongside maggots and other disgusting critters.
Unable to move, Kagome laid there. Her eyes had dulled since her coming here. Her skin had tremendously paled to an unhealthy color at the lack of sunlight exposure. Her hair was tangled and untamed. Smudges of blood and dirt covered her person. Her eyelids fluttered close in exhaustion and she lost consciousness.
~~~
Once again she was chain to the wall. Slowly raising her head she looked Kabuto in the eyes.
"You stink," he sneered before dumping a bucket of cold sudsy water over her head.
The water felt like a thousand needles over her skin. Her wounds burned even more, making her scream.
"That's what I like to hear," Kabuto licked his lips before grabbing a cup of soapy water. "Drink up like a good girl."
Kabuto poured it into her mouth. Before the miko could spit it out the ninja covered her nose and mouth. Kagome tried to shake her head from side to side, but her neck was restricted. The bitter and metallic taste clashed with her mouth. Her tongue was brutally burned from the devil-like taste. She desperately tried to spit it out and breathe. The miko was only able to get a few drops to leave her mouth and slip narrowly through Kabuto's fingers, only to swallow the rest and be allowed air.
Coughing desperately she stuck her tongue out in hopes to get the revolting taste out of her mouth. Looking blankly at the floor she was surprised when she found something warm against her lips. Then something hot and moist invaded her mouth. Then realizing what it was she bit down and moved her head as much as she could. Her offender stepped back with a calculating look on his face. He wiped the saliva that dripped down his lips.
"Disgusting," Kabuto smirked at the female's flushed and panting person. "I still don't get what Sasuke sees in you."
Walking away he grabbed the first whip that caught his eye. Testing it he cracked it against the floor, chuckling lowly when he saw Kagome flinch.
"Ya know." he hit Kagome's stomach with the whip getting a groan in return. "I kissed you because you had such a lewd face... I just couldn't resist." Kabuto cracked the whip against her shoulder next.
"Can't say I totally regret it," He shrugged before speeding up his hits.
Kabuto continued to torture the miko with different weapons and procedures. The dimly lit room was filled with screams and gasps of pain. The sounds of cruel chuckling could be heard in the mix. The floor was patterned with blood. The female screamed as she was hit once again. Then her vision became blurry.
"No, don't you dare pass out on me now," Kabuto adjusted his glasses taking a break.
Kagome saw Kabuto walk up to her. Looking him dead in the eyes she asked. "Does Sasuke still think I'm in my room?"
"You're amusing, I'll give you that," Kabuto chuckled. "In fact he does. I told him you forgive him. But you caught a bad fever and didn't want to pass it on."
Kagome smirked. Her bangs now covered the view of eyes.
"What is so funny," Kabuto raised an eyebrow.
"You honestly think that you can keep me here for much longer?" she glared at him through her overgrown bangs. "Sasuke is going to get suspicious. And then I'm gonna bust out of this hellhol- argh!"
"It'd be much prefered if you shut up," Kabuto growled after he slashed her stomach with a hot blade.
~~~
After getting shoved back into her cell she looked at the prisoner who first talked to her.
"Kabuto must hate you," he said.
"No doubt about that."
"You smell sweet. Did you bathe?"
"Water dumped on me, yes." Kagome grimaced.
"Are you tired?" The prisoner crawled over.
"Yeah," Kagome closes her eyes.
"Sweet dreams."
"Same to you."
~~~
"Sasuke demanded he see you today," Kabuto frowned as he dumped cold soapy water on Kagome.
The miko didn't speak. She only smirked at her victory.
"But I got him to back off." He then poured soapy water into Kagome's mouth and made her swallow.
"I'll be out of here soon," Kagome's raspy voice was heard, just above a whisper.
~~~
"I made a clone of myself to pose as you. My clone and Sasuke argued, so you don't want to see him," Kabuto sighed.
Smirking Kagome looked through her overgrown bangs that now went past her nose.
"I found a new game to play. I feel like we've both gotten bored of the beating and slashing," Kabuto pushed up his glasses and went to go get something.
"And so I thought of doing this instead." He smiled and held up a pair of pliers. "What's 1000 minus 8?"
"992," Kagome answers instantaneously.
"Count for every clip, ok?" He then started to clip off her toes.
Kagome screamed in agony and pulled against the cuffs and chains. Her sensitive skin rubbed against the cold dirty cuffs. Shutting her eyes tight she dared not look.
"Why aren't you counting," Kabuto stopped to let her regenerate.
Panting Kagome shook her head as much as she possibly could.
"You know now that I think about it." Kabuto then started clipping off her fingers. "Ever since you came here, you never asked me to stop. You just kept defying me."
Then he went back to her toes.
"Why is that?" Kabuto looked up at the miko.
"This isn't anything compared to what Naraku did. Compared to him you're a spoiled brat throwing a tantrum." Kagome spat.
Wiping the saliva from his face he glared and grabbed a hammer. "50 times 59?"
Kagome took a moment to gather her thoughts, it wasn't her fault. Not only was she being tortured but asked questions on her least favorite subjects, that's two birds with one stone. (Kids if you ever truly want to torture someone, ask them questions on their least favorite subject.)
"2,950."
"You took too long!" Kabuto then swung the hammer on her kneecap.
She screamed. Hearing the sickening crack of her knee only made it worse. Not daring to look down she shut her eyes. Catching her breath she focused on every other part of her body, to dull out the pain.
"That's what I like to hear, keep it up," Kabuto smirked. "992 plus 8?"
"1000," Kagome panted.
The hammer then came down a second away from smashing her skull. Looking to the right, she saw how the tool cracked the wall and found itself unable to move. Then looking down at Kabuto she gave him an appalled look.
"Were you trying to kill me?"
"You sound surprisingly calm," Kabuto said as he started to pull out the stuck item. He frowned before giving it one more tug, successfully recovering the tool.
"The other day you told me that you were going to escape. But I'm not so sure," Kabuto smirked.
"Tomorrow." Kagome mumbled.
"What was that?"
"Tomorrow is when I will be set free," the miko repeated.
"Let's say you were to be set free, but by who? Certainly not Lord Orochimaru, he doesn't even know Sasuke brought you to the hideout. Sasuke is too busy with his training to worry about seeing you right now."
"Tomorrow he will be aggravated and demand to see me," Kagome smirked. "You won't be here when I break the chains."
"And who says I won't put extra chains on you?"
"I know you will. But that's ok." Kagome gave him a nice smile.
"What's the smile for?"
"I honestly pity you. Once I get out of here, it won't be very good for you."
"Shutup already. I'm bored now," Kabuto frowned and uncuffed Kagome, making her fall from off the wall and onto him. Quickly he put her chains back on her wrists and feet. Then grabbing the chain he dragged her back to her cell. Throwing her in he locked it behind her.
Staring down at her person as she laid on the floor he spoke. "You will not escape tomorrow. Not if I have anything to say about it." With that he left.
Once the miko heard the ash-gray haired male's footsteps fade and the big iron door slam she chuckled.
"Damn, you would think he'd known I made all of that up," Kagome giggles.
"You really are amazing," the prisoner spoke.
"Oh please, Himawari. Your making me blush," Kagome smiled sheepishly, forcing herself to turn on her back.
"But it's true," the other prisoner said.
The yellow haired prisoner sat next to Kagome as the two leaned on the wall.
"Thanks for being here with me, Himawari," Kagome started. "If it weren't for you I would have lost it."
"Nope problem. It's pretty lonely here. So I couldn't help but want to be around you," The gray eyed female smiled. "I could tell you are a nice person."
"When I bust out of here I'm taking you with me." Kagome leaned on Himawari's shoulder.
~~~
The miko's eyes snapped open. Alert. Carefully she removed herself from Himawari and stood up. Wincing at the slight pain in her knee. Lightly touching her knee, she inspected it. It wasn't broken, just fractured now.
'These damn chains are slowing my regeneration,' Kagome cursed.
Walking up to the bars of the cage she looked around for Kabuto. He wasn't there.
'This is good.'
She sat back down in a criss cross position. Taking her mediation formations she started. Expanding her aura slowly she reached out for Sasuke. Past the iron door. Up the steps. Down the corridors. Left. Right. More stairs. More hallways. More doors.
'Found him!'
Carefully she wrapped her aura around him, careful to not wake him, and entered his head. She then started to alter his thoughts and dreams to nothing but of herself. Kagome continued this process for a few minutes before diminishing her aura from his person. She then pulled her aura back into her person.
Sighing, she laid down.
'Now all I have to do is wait.'
~~~
"Sasuke, where are you going," Kabuto asked.
"I need to see Kagome," Sasuke said as he walked into 'Kagome's room'. He found the room dark, bare, and no Kagome. He turned to glare at the other ninja.
"Where is she?!"
~~~
Kagome's eyes snapped open.
'It's time!'
