Naraku sat on his bed, thinking of all the plans he can do, using Kagome. He knew he may profit more from his first one, but the second plan may offer the chance of a lifetime, breaking that despicable girl's spirit, more than Inu-Yasha had, of course. ***Everyone-throw eggs at him!!!!!*** He smirked. Inu-Yasha had unknowingly helped him more than anyone else could have.
"That hanyou's lingering feelings for Kikyo had destroyed most of Kagome's spirit. Another twist and perhaps she'll just be where I want her to be," Naraku thought.
"Megami." A female servant came in.
"Yes, my lord?"
"Take this girl and put her in the one of the bedrooms. She's dirty. Lay out some clothes for her. As for her own ones, lay them roughly all over the floor."
"But, my lord…"
"Do you dare question my orders?" Naraku asked, with a hint of danger in his voice.
"No, sire." Megami took the girl, wondering at her master's odd instructions.
***
Kagome stirred. She looked up to find herself in an unfamiliar room. The last thing she remembered was the Inu-Yasha choosing Kikyo over herself.
"Is this…its den? Ay!" She discovered that her clothes were strewn all over the floor and she herself was wearing nothing. The door slid open and Megami came in.
"You are awake, Mistress." Kagome started at this title before reminding herself that 'mistress' is used differently 500 years ago.
"Not that differently," goes the little voice in her head. Kagome mentally squashed it this time.
"Here are your clothes, My Lady." Megami gave Kagome the clothing her master gave her. Kagome was sure that she smelt Naraku's scent in the kimono but put it on, nevertheless.
"Here, you're ready to see the master. You've been asleep for a long time. Ever since…" Megami clasped her hand over her mouth, remembering not to talk about that.
"Since what?"
"Ah…nothing, my lady. The lord wishes to speak to you."
***
Naraku awaited Kagome's arrival. His servants already told him of her awakening. He smirked at the idea of her face when she finds out.
"Ah…my dear. Leave us." The servants retreated, leaving Kagome with Naraku. She gasped.
"You…" there was a trace of fear in her voice.
"You set the toad demon against us?"
"So she doesn't know that Inu-Yasha risked his life for her. Hmmm…even better. The poor hanyou," Naraku thought nastily.
"Well, my dear, how do you like your new home?"
"Since when was I 'dear' to you? This place won't be 'home' for long, not after Inu-Yasha rescues me."
"Oh. Really? He's already chosen Kikyo, though."
"Yeah, but he wants the Shikon no Tama as much as you. He…He needs me to find the jewel shards."
"Surely you know that you are only the reincarnation of one who does. With Kikyo, why would he need you?" There was silence in the room. Naraku snickered, knowing that he had both defeated and convinced his victim.
"Now. You know Onigumo's secret and his desire for Kikyo, do you not? Well, I have decided to satisfy his desire with Kikyo's re-incarnation." He gave Kagome a moment for this to set in. Her eye's widened in terror as she analyzed what Naraku had said.
"No…You wouldn't…"
"I think I have already," Naraku answered, highly amused at how gullible Kagome was-playing right into his hands.
"You…You…wouldn't dare. You…couldn't have." However, Kagome was less convinced when she reflected back to her clothes strewn on the floor.
"Well, now. You can leave and go back to Inu-Yasha and see what he says," Naraku laughed out loud. "Go ahead, nothing will bar your way."
"He's kidding. He's just trying to intimidate me," Kagome thought to herself. But, the moment she stepped outside of his castle, with nothing blocking her way, she knew. Naraku hadn't been kidding. He had satisfied Onigumo's desires through her. With that, she broke, knowing that this knowledge had only struck a nerve that was set by Kikyo and Inu-Yasha's love. She had fallen into her own heart's trap. She just hoped that one day she'll wake up and find that this was all just a dream.
**************************************
Yes, I know. Don't we all just want to KILL Naraku. Um, if you didn't get the Onigumo's desire parts, cause I don't want to make it too public, (I'm not that comfortable writing that stuff), then email me in your review and I'll explain, 'k? (Hope readers know that Naraku was INTIMIDATING her. Didn't really...well...you know!)
Reviews! I need them! Get them into my mailbox. See? I'm holding onto the deal. You give me enough reviews, next thing I'm typing my hand off for your next chapter. I've put up this extra one today! SO, you get it!
~And, any Sailor Moon fans, I posted a SM fanfic. It should show up after the 24-hour update. Enjoy!
