"Where is the sword!?" A man with long black hair and red eyes shouted at the man before him. The man gave a laugh and spat out blood on the floor. "like I would tell the likes of you," the other man growled and punched the man in the stomach. "Just tell me where the sword is and I'll let you go," the man gave a bloody smile "are we getting desperate, Naraku."


Kagome and Rhodey sat in the kitchen in quiet, Tony and the others had a call to assemble a few minutes ago, Peper had left for a meeting and Shippo left as well. Kagome looked at Rhodey before moving to stand behind him, running her hand along his shoulder and down his chest she rested her chin on his shoulder. "You are losing your temper at Tony more quickly than you have in the past." She spoke softly. Rhodey sighed bowing his head, "I know" Kagome wrapped her arms around Rhodeys waist and hugged him while she kissed his shoulder. They stayed like that for a few moments before Rhodey spoke

"I just can't take him not knowing anymore Kag's, it's killing me, and it kills me even more to know that he won't ever feel the same." Rhodey turned around so Kagome was pulled against his chest. Kagome leaned up and kissed him. "I know Rhodey, you know I feel the same."

Just then the window shattered and Tony slammed into the wall, followed by the rest of the Avengers coming out of the elevator. Kagome and Rhodey let go of each other, Rhodey walked over to Cap while Kagome went to check on Tony. As Kagome was helping Tony up another person came through the window. Kagome Froze when she saw who it was.

The person smiled as he saw who was in the room with the verman he had thrown through the window. "Well this just got interesting wouldn't you say Ka-go-me" Everyone turned to look at Kagome, who was pale, and backing up. "How….." The man gave a dark laugh and ran his fingers through his long black hair. "How am I still alive? simple, you failed. Because you are not Her." Kagome stopped backing up and narrowed her eyes at the man. Who just laughed at her.

"What do you want." Kagome spit out at the man the others were shocked with how she changed from scared to furious. "I want the sword." Kagome narrowed her eyes at him before she took a step forward. Tony reached out to grab her but she pulled her arm away before he could grab her. She raised her right arm and sent out a pulse. The man before her to a step back as he recognized the pulse of energy, his eyes narrowed when he saw a sword appeared in her hand. He quickly recognized it and his eyes widened. "oh this is rich. Pure little Kagome. Holding the sword that could take over the world. Does Loverboy know you have it, Oh wait I killed him didn't I, well does Brother know you have his Daddy's Sword, oh wait I have him to. Better yet are you really able to hold back the nature of that sword I mean, you are just a copy." Kagome bowed her head as she listened to him talk. Everyone stared at Kagome and the man, not understanding how they knew each other or why his words were affecting Kagome the way they were. Kagome's powers started to pulse, Thor widened his eyes and took a step back causing Natasha and Clint to look at him with concern, knowing that Thor was not one to take a step back. The man in front of Kagome also took a step back eyes wide, Natasha caught the flash of fear running through the man's eyes.

Kagome slowly raised her head to look at the man, continued to step back when he saw the flash of pink in her eyes. "I'd advise you to stop talking, less you want a more painful demise Na-Ra-Ku" Kagome said taunting the man with the last part, just like he had done to her. She smirked when she heard him growl at her. Raising her hand she shook her finger at him. "ah ah it's not nice to growl at people." Naraku narrowed his eyes at Kagome, before he sent one of his tentacles out at her. To which Kagome cut off lazily.

"That dude has tentacles, that's just wrong." Clint said Natasha nodded her head in agreement. Naraku continued to send out tentacles to which Kagome continued to cut off. Suddenly Naraku stopped, and smiled sickly at Kagome who froze. "Remember the Castle Kagome." Kagome when pale once more, her right hand falling to her side limply, Naraku slowly approached her before leaning down to whisper in her ear, "Remember the months you spent in there, with me." He backed up with a laugh as she blindly swung So'unga at him. 'Stop falling into his hand Kagome' So'unga said to her through their mental link. Naraku continued to laugh as she collapsed "I will not kill you…. I will break you Kagome." Naraku's voice echoed throughout the floor as he vanished.

Natasha was the first one to Kagome, making sure not to touch So'unga as she pulled Kagome in for a hug, she had a feeling on what Naraku said to her and knew that the memories were flowing back to her. Rhodey and Clint came up behind her. "Natasha let's take her to her room." Rhodey said as he knelt down to pick Kagome up. As he stood up he saw a look on Tony's face that made him freeze, feeling Clint's hand on his shoulder he quickly shook his head before continuing to Kagome's room.

Rhodey placed Kagome on her bed and Natasha sat beside her and stroked her hair. "I'm going to go make sure no one gets any ideas to touch the sword." Clint said as he left the room with only a nod as a reply. Rhodey at the end of the bed and started at Kagome. "Tony has feelings for her, the look he gave me" Natasha looked up at Rhodey with soft eyes, she couldn't help but feel bad for both him and Kagome. "I saw the look he gave you, It made me want to slap him, in fact I believe that Clint may do that for the both of us." Natasha said softly.


She looked around, but she couldn't see a thing, the smell of blood was thick in the air. She knew she was not in a place she wanted to be in, reaching her hand out she felt a wall, deciding that it was a good idea to see if she was in a closed space she stood up and walked with her hand along the wall. Her hand hit air and then it hit a metal bar. Her eyes widened she quickly closed her eyes and searched for demonic energy and found it. Letting out a whimper she fell to the floor. She knew where she was. Naraku's castle.

She was hanging by her arms blood running down them, her head was tilted back and she let the rare sunlight hit her face. It had been a month.
She was back in her cell her back was up against the wall her lungs were killing her, it had been four months

It was her seventh month in the castle when she felt it. The door that led into the room she was kept in was kicked in, she saw him walk towards her cell. The door opened she stumbled into his arms and and breathed a sigh of relief. "Sesshomaru"

Kagome's eyes snapped open, feeling a hand run through her hand she looked up and saw Natasha, who smiled at her. Giving a small smile in return looked to the end of the bed when she felt a hand on her leg, seeing Rhodey she felt tears leave her eyes sitting up she reached out to hug him. Natasha seeing this quietly moved to leave, as she was getting off the bed she felt a tug on her hair turning around she saw Kagome with pleading eyes. Giving her a reassuring smile Natasha sat back on the bed and let Kagome pull her into a hug. Knowing that if Kagome asked anything of her she would not hesitate to do it. Kagome had wormed her way into her heart and she was sure as hell not going to let her leave, or get hurt. And she knew that Clint felt the same.
