Chapter 4: The plan.
Inuyasha jumped up. His ears were throbbing. He heard the most terrifying scream. His mind raced. 'Was that Kagomae? I thought she went home.' he thought jumping off the tree and racing to find Shippo and the others. When he found them they were in Kaede's hut eating. "Are you sure Kagomae went home?" Inuyasha asked. He couldn't hide the worry in his voice. "Yes. At least that's where she said she was going." Replied Miroku. "What's wrong?" Kaede asked. "I heard.I heard someone screaming." Inuyasha said with difficulty. "Well just go to her time and check up on her." Sango suggested. "It ain't that easy." Inuyasha said. "I'll come with you." Shippo said eagerly. 'Ok I'll make the runt check up on her.' He thought. "Alright fine. Let's go." He said trying to sound irritated. Shippo hopped on his shoulder and Inuyasha raced to the well. 'Please.Please be alright, Kagomae.' He thought.
------------------------------------------: -------------------------------- --------
When they reached the well Inuyasha stopped. "Her scent is here but it's fading." He told Shippo. "Go into the future and see if she's in her room. DON'T talk to her mother" Inuyasha instructed. "But why do I have to go?" Shippo asked. "Cause I said so, squirt." Inuyasha replied. Before Shippo could comment, Inuyasha picked him up and dropped him into the well. He heard a tiny thump and knew he had reached the bottom. "Hey! Kagome's bag is here." Shippo yelled up. "What?" Inuyasha yelled. "Bring it up." He called down the well. It took the kitsune a few minutes but he finally dragged the huge bag up the well. Inuyasha sniffed it. All he could smell was her scent on it then he picked up a slightly different scent on the strap. It was light but he could detect it. "Naraku.he's got her." He growled. "Shippo get the others. Kagomae's been kidnapped." He said. "Oh no!" Shippo yelled and raced off towards the village.

Kagome awoke once again. She was back in the room. Naraku was waiting for her this time. Her wounds were treated and wrapped. Her hair had been washed, brushed, and tied back. She discovered she was wearing new clothes.
(Picture Kikyo's outfit but the pants are black.) "We couldn't have our miko looking dirty now cold we?" Naraku told her laughing. He stopped completely. "Let us compromise. I do not like people who defy me. Therefore I will give you a choice. You can either stay here willingly and I will provide proper food. Or you can defy me and I'll make you kill your companions." He said bluntly. Kagome looked away. She knew that he could control her body. He had done it with Kohaku. Though she didn't want to stay here. Her friends could fend for themselves. "I will not stay here with you." She said loud and clear. "Then prepare to kill your friends." Naraku said and he waved his hand. Kagome began to float. Her clothes changed back and she had a bow and some arrows. Her body started traveling through the forest and towards the village. "Please.let them be somewhere far away." Kagome prayed.
-------------------------------:---------------------------------------- "We have to find her." Miroku said worried. "No shit bozu." Inuyasha said once everyone was gathered around. They were back in the village and preparing to go search for Kagomae. "No look there she is!" Shippo yelled pointing. They all turned to his direction and sure enough Kagomae was walking towards them with her boy and arrow. "We were so worried!" Shippo yelled. She shot an arrow at him but hit narrowly missed and it hit a hut behind him making it explode. "Kagomae!" Inuyasha yelled. She shot an arrow at him but he dodged it. Once it hit the ground it exploded leaving a huge hole into the ground. 'RUN! RUN AWAY!' Kagome thought as her hands prepared another arrow. "Kagome stop!" Shippo yelled. Another arrow was shot. Miroku jumped out the way just in time. "Naraku's controlling her!" he yelled to the others. Kagomae shot again and this time hit Sango. Sango screamed as the arrow stuck in her shoulder. Luckily it didn't explode. She lay on the ground bleeding. Kagome couldn't stand it any longer. "NO!" she yelled. Tears flowed down her eyes. "I give up. I'll stay. I promise! Just don't make me shoot another." She yelled looking up at the sky. Naraku's laugh echoed throughout the village. Kagomae began to float. "No!" Inuyasha yelled jumping up and trying to reach her. But he was to late. She was beginning to disappear into the sky. Growing transparent. "I'm sorry." Kagome whispered and disappeared completely.
--------------------------------:------------------------------------------- --------
When she returned to Naraku her clothes and hair had changed back again. "You made the right choice." Naraku said. "What do you want?" Kagomae asked. "Your soul, miko. As we speak a thousand demons are merging into one. When everything is ready you will fight it. Your soul will be forced from your body and you will be the new Shikon no Tama." Naraku explained. "When?" Kagomae asked sitting down with her back faced to him and staring at the blank wall. "Sunset." Naraku said. "Then leave me until then. I want to be alone." Kagomae ordered. Naraku laughed. "As you wish, miko." Naraku said. "Kisama." Kagome cursed and Naraku closed the door.
