Chapter 2: The Reawakening

Naraku began to approach the crystal prison that held Yosei captive. He held out his hand to touch the crystal but as he did waves of black electricity surrounded the prison. Naraku calmly stepped back as he watched the black waves dance across the surface of the crystal. "This time it won't be as easy as the last, but this poses no problem for Me." he said as he braced himself. The room became still as the waves began to cease. Powerful surges of wind began to radiate from Naraku. The wind struck against the crystal wildly until it began to crack. The cracks ran across the surface of the crystal, chipping and cracking until Yosei broke free causing shards of crystal to fly everywhere. Her hair was flowing from the energy released while freeing herself. Naraku looked at his new minion and grinned evilly. "Fu.Fu-Fushicho?" she mumbled as she looked down at the ground, her eyes concealed by shadows.

"I do not know of whom you are speaking." said Naraku as he took off the hood of his baboon pelt to reveal his face. Yosei quickly looked up at Naraku, starring into his face mindlessly. "Do you not remember who you are demon?" said Naraku as he began to become frustrated. The expression on Yosei's face began to change as her eyes became filled with sadness.

"Fushicho.Fushicho I.I." said Yosei as she began to walk toward Naraku, quickening her pace with every step. Tears began to fill her eyes as she walked with her arms outstretched towards Naraku. "I.I'm sorry. I love you..I love you Fushicho!" she said as she embraced Naraku, tears still streaming down her face.

He was overcome with anger. "Let go of me you filthy winch!" he said then struck her causing her to fall to the ground. Yosei looked down shamefully at her naked body still sobbing on the floor. "I do not know of this Fushicho you speak of, but I am not him. I own you now, you are mine and you shall do as I say!" he said furiously as pointed his finger at her. "I am not your slave." said Yosei angrily as she began to wipe the tears from her eyes. "Heh, you disgust me. Stand up" Naraku said as he began to calm down. "I have no use for such childishness. I believe it is time I tested your strength. If you survive you shall serve me and be rewarded with a shard of the sacred jewel." Naraku once again held up his hand as the Miasma began to pour from it. The poisonous fumes and acid began to surge towards Yosei who stepped back in panic. The fumes clouded the room until nothing was visible. An intense heat began to radiate in the room as it had before. The Miasma fumes began to distinguish to reveal Yosei protected by a glowing barrier. "So you are strong. I guess looks can be deceiving." said Naraku as he smirked at the glowing barrier. The barrier began to disappear to reveal the ancient mask pulsating in Yosei's arms. "I am not just some weak little girl but I don't understand .Where am I? What happened? .I'm so confused. Where.where is Fushicho.and Faori? Where is everybody?" said Yosei as she looked around in a daze. "I will explain to later, I wish to leave this place" said Naraku as he turned to leave. "Wait! Don't leave me here.alone. I don't want to be alone anymore. Please take me with you. "On one condition, you shall serve me and do as I say." "I.I agree" said Yosei as she looked down at the floor. She started to become angry at her self for being so submissive, but what could she do? She no longer remembered the power she once had. And even now she does not realize the evil heart of the master she now serves.
