Yet again, I am very saddened to say that I don't own Inuyasha. Thanks for reviewing!

Chapter 2

Kagome saw the look on Shippo's face and turned around very quickly. A very large, very ugly demon was behind her. It was coming towards them very quickly. Inuyasha growled and pulled out the tetsuaiga (I know I didn't spell that right).

"Must kill, must kill," the demon was mumbling. It raised the large hammer that was at its side and prepared to strike them.

"You are not killing any of us," Inuyasha said and jumped to attack the fierce demon in their path. He sliced the demon on the shoulder. It fell on the ground with a loud thud. They all eyed the demon suspiciously. "That was easy," Kagome said.

"Yah," Inuyasha agreed. They walked away from the demon in the uneasy silence. Shippo broke the silence. "That was too easy, wasn't it? Usually demons aren't killed so easily."

"That was kind of weird. Maybe it was weak, but why did it want to kill us?" Kagome questioned. Inuyasha shrugged his shoulders. 'Maybe it was sent by the woman who keeps talking to me in my head,' Kagome thought.

"You got that right," a voice said. Or at least Kagome thought it did. 'Maybe I am hearing things.' This time there was no reply. She looked at Inuyasha; he had a confused look on his face. 'He is not sure, either.' They continued walking.

"Where are we going?" Shippo asked. Kagome didn't know but Inuyasha did, "Kaede's hut." They walked in silence until they got there. "What is it that thee needs?" Kaede asked. "We have a problem. Kagome has been hearing voices lately," Inuyasha said. "Is this true child?" Kaede asked. Kagome nodded and told her what had happened.

"Hmm..This is very interesting. I think thee should stay here tonight while I think on this." Shippo stayed inside while Kagome and Inuyasha went outside. Inuyasha put his arm around her and carried her up into a tree.

"Inuyasha." "What?" Inuyasha asked, rather harshly. Kagome started to get tears in her eyes. "What's wrong?" Inuyasha asked, more softly this time. She looked up at him. He was surprised to see that she was crying and put his arm around her.

She leaned against him. "I'm scared that something might happen. That she might do something bad through me, that that she might control me or something," she sniffled. "Sssh..It's ok," Inuyasha whispered, trying to comfort her. "No, it's not. What if she does something? We don't even though what we are up against," she croaked, her voice cracking. Inuyasha held her as she continued crying. He kissed the top of her head.

"Thank you, Inuyasha," she said, wiping the tears off her eyes. They went back inside to Kaede's hut. Kaede came towards them. "I think I know what is happening to thee. A demon is able to come into your mind and gain control of your body. As time goes on she will be able to gain more control until she can totally take of your body. But I do not know how to fix this problem."

"Well that's a first," Inuyasha said and Kaede glared at him. "You will have to face this demon and defeat it." "Feh," Inuyasha said. Kagome looked outside, it was getting dark. They all went to bed.

Kagome woke up in the middle of the night. 'Why did I wake up?' she asked herself. "Because, my dear, it is time to get up," it was the woman, she was back. "Who are you?" Kagome asked quietly.

"I am Leiko," the demon said arrogantly. "What do you want with me?" Kagome asked. "Hmm.What do I want with you? Well, that is a good question. I am just bored, very bored. I need something to occupy my time," and with that Kagome felt herself rising off the bed.

"Oh no..Let go of me!! Stop!" Kagome yelled but surprisingly no one heard. She was walking throughout the house until she found a knife. Getting an idea of what was happening, Kagome said, "No! Stop this! What are you going to do with me?"

"Nothing," Leiko said innocently, "just kill that little puppy of yours. What is his name? Oh yes, Inuyasha."

She felt herself walking towards Inuyasha who was sleeping on the roof. She tried to stop herself, but she couldn't. "Inuyasha! Wake up!! Please!" Kagome said, but nothing came out.

Leiko kept controlling Kagome until she was next to Inuyasha with the knife raised above his chest. She closed her eyes, she couldn't watch as the knife plugged into his chest. Strangely, there was no noise. Why wasn't Inuyasha screaming and she opened her eyes.

Inuyasha had stopped the knife and said, "No, you don't." He snatched the knife out of her hands. "Ha ha ha, do you think that you can stop me? You weak hanyou!" Leiko said through Kagome.

Kagome prayed that Inuyasha knew that it wasn't her that said that. He knew. "Get out of Kagome now," he yelled, not sure what to do. He couldn't hurt Leiko because she was in Kagome's body. There was no way that he would hurt Kagome. Inuyasha grabbed Kagome's hand and there was a look of concern on his face. "Don't worry, Kagome. I know that it wasn't you," he said smiling. She smiled back.

Leiko couldn't stand to see this happiness and left Kagome's body. Kagome fainted and Inuyasha caught her. He quietly went inside and put her where she had been sleeping.

He sat against the wall; he wasn't going to leave her. 'Don't worry. I will protect you, Kagome.' He smiled as he watched her fall asleep. Soon he fell asleep, thinking about Kagome.

When Inuyasha woke up the sun was shining through the window. He opened his eyes and was surprised to see that Kagome wasn't there. Where was she? Was she being controlled again?

"Kagome, where are you?" Inuyasha called. He looked all over for her. Suddenly he heard Kaede's voice, "Kagome is in her." She and Shippo were sitting on the floor eating ramen.

"Inuyasha were you worried about Kagome?" Shippo said smirking. "No!" Inuyasha growled. Kagome's face turned sad after that comment. He was worried about her, but he didn't want to admit it. He hoped that she would understand.

"Kaede, did you think of anything that would help Kagome?" Shippo asked, changing the subject. He looked at Inuyasha, he was staring at Kagome. "No, I am sorry I did not. I am thinking that you should go to another village. I heard that the priestess there is very strong and experienced. She might know what to do," Kaede said. "Where is this village?" Kagome asked.

"You must go through the forest and go over the mountains. It will be at the bottom on the other side. You will be able to see it from the top." "Ok, let's go!" Shippo said jumping up and down, "We have to help Kagome and then she will be ok again." "When are we going to leave?" Shippo asked no one in particular.

"I think that you should go as soon as possible," Kaede recommended. "Yeah, I think that we should leave now," Kagome said. And with that they all got ready to leave.
