Ooh! Well! Everyone seemed to like that picture I drew of Shio I drew! ^-^ I'm pleased that you think I am such a good artist. I'm now working on a picture of Shio and his sister, Sashimi. If you want to read about her, she's in the story "Inu Sensai!"

Chapter 5: Spell Binder

-

Kagome sat down in front of a large tree and panted. Her heart throbbed in her ears as she tried to calm herself down. She remembered the 'punishment' Inu Yasha had chosen for her.

Flashback.......

. "Yes, possession is a very nice punishment." He put both hands on the rafter and swung upside down. He smirked, looked her in the eyes and said, "Kiss me!"

End of flashback.........

Kagome blushed and hugged her knees. Kissing was probably the way he made a connection with her soul. If he had that, then he would be able to pull himself into her mind and do whatever he wanted with her. The very thought was creepy and kind of sick. Inu Yasha possessing Kagome.

She sighed and Shippou sat next to her. "That demon was scary!" he said still trembling.

She pulled him into her lap and hugged him. "I know, I wish I didn't have to do this, but I must purify him."

Shippou looked up at her in his little kid confusion, "But why Kagome?"

She smiled at him and ruffled his hair, "I've always been looked down on as a child; the youngest and most incompetent of my sisters. If I can successfully purify him, that will prove my worth."

Shippou raised an eyebrow and looked off to the side. "I don't know." He said. "It just doesn't sound right."

Kagome watched him questioningly as he tried to find a way to elaborate.

"Well," he said. "It kind of makes him sound like a sacrifice."

Kagome hadn't thought of that. A sacrifice? Like she was using him to make herself look good? She shook her head and said, "He brought this upon himself. He's a nuisance, evil as sin!" she was probably telling herself more then Shippou. He looked up at her a little unsure.

Well she was ready! She studied. Kagome studied for hours, the spells that extreme priestesses could use to torture demons and she was ready! Oh yeah!

She stood sixty feet in front of the church temple with her hands hanging at her sides. The wind blew at her priestess uniform and a tumbleweed passed by. She walked up to the door and kicked it open and Inu Yasha stood in the middle of the floor smirking at her as she stepped in. They stood across from each other in silence. Miroku, Sango, Shippou, and Kikyo stood on the far side of the room watching in hushed aw. Inu Yasha cracked his knuckles at his side and tilted his head forward a little. "Back for more, little girl?" Kagome raised her clentched fist and said, "You'd better be afraid now, dog boy! I've learned two new advanced spells this afternoon and I'm about to use them on you!" He raised an eyebrow and looked at her in amusement. "Did you now?" "That's right!" was it possible for her to hate his cocky little grin and at the same time feel really horny for it? She held the wrist of the raised fist and said, "This attack is known as the 'Chaos of Pain'!" Inu Yasha pretended to look scared and she said, "It is called this because when the target is locked, he feels pain worse then dying death!" Kikyo sweat dropped. Kagome started to concentrate her power and her fist started to glow. Inu Yasha stood there ready to block whatever came at him. She shouted and her voice echoed in the church, "Chaos of Pain!!" she opened her hand and the glowing light shot from her hands and enveloped the dog demon. He looked shocked for a second then the light exploded and he winced as it started to flow through his body. He shook like he was in the electric chair and with his eyes wide as ramen bowls, he laughed hysterically!! Kagome looked at him bewildered. It looked like he was being tortured by tickling! She dropped her hand and the light disappeared. He fell to his knees smiling and panting. Tears lined his eyes and he said, "My GOD!" he chuckled and pulled himself to his feet and said. "Well, I wasn't able to block it! What else ya' got?" That was a temporary failure, but Kagome still had one spell left. "The Angel of Death spell! I use my soul to suck your soul out of your body!" she stood up straight and started to concentrate on her breathing. Kikyo grew more sweat drops and put her face in her hands. Kagome closed her eyes and opened her mouth. A white fog came drifting out and circled around Inu Yasha. Kagome opened her eyes and made the fog circle him, she would pull his soul out through his pores and send him to Nirvana! Inu Yasha watched the little fog circle him then his eyes widened. He was definitely starting to feel something. He groaned and his eyes rolled back and closed. "MMMMMMMM!!!! Yes!" he said. He swayed a little and a his mouth twisted into a perverted grin. "YES! YES! I WANT IT! YES!" Kagome looked over at where everyone was looking on at what she was doing. It was so embarrassing! She decided to pull her soul back in before she embarrassed herself even further. She started to suck her soul back in, but Inu Yasha felt her soul leaveing him. He groaned loudly and whimpered, "No! Don't go!" he sucked in and she felt her soul being pulled back toward him. And he was stronger at soul sucking then she was. But if she wasn't able to get it out of his grip, her soul would be pulled inside of him! She tried sucking again. He pulled harder. "No! I want MORE!" he said with a pleasureful smile. Her soul was at least halfway inside of him. He had the upper hand on where it was going. 'No!' she screamed in her mind. 'He's not going to have my soul!' but she couldn't pull it back! And her grip was slipping. Kikyo sighed and pulled a spell scroll out of her kimono. She tossed it at Inu Yasha. It landed on his arm and he was shocked by many electric waves. "DAAAHHH!!!" he screamed and let go of her soul. Kagome's soul went flying back into her so fast she fell backwards. "I'm afraid that wasn't a smart thing to do Kagome," Kikyo said. "Those were advanced priestess techniques and you tried to master them under a day. As you can see, if one who is under experienced tried to do what you did, the target would probably feel the opposite of what they were supposed to feel. And that second attack, if the target has a stronger connection with their spiritual energy, they can overwhelm the priestess and reverse the attack to steal her soul." Kagome looked over at her and all of her friends who were watching, upset and completely mortified. She turned to look at the charred and twitching Inu Yasha and her eyes filled with tears. Then she went running out of the church-again. Everyone watched her leave in silence. Then Shippou scratched his head and shrugged, "I don't get it!" he said. Everyone looked at him, then Miroku sniffed the air and asked, "Do I smell chicken fried hanyo?" "SHUT UP!" Inu Yasha shouted.
