"Damn you, monk!" Sadako flew into a rage. Her room looked as though it had been turned

upside down. Glass shards littered the floor. The moonlight lit the pieces, casting an eerie

illumination upon her face. "Twice! Twice I've failed!"

Her left eye twitching in frustration, she paced the room. "What went wrong? It was that

hanyou that woke Seto from his dream, and I can't work my magic while he's awake." She rubbed

her sore jaw. "And who was that nasty wench who spoiled my plans the first time?" Her eyes lit up

(the left one still twitching). " She ... she must be the one who turned my love against me in the first

place! I remember those painful memories too well."

Her spirit suddenly felt as though it was dragging the floor, all energy left her body as she

leaned her head against the wall. Sadako's energy came in a rushing river at times. But right now, a

dam sat in her river. It's this body, she thought, sucking the air in sips. It's the real Sadako, she

wants her body back, so she tries to push me out. At times it makes me ill... how ironic.

"Twenty years ago... Seto... my samurai, vowed his love to me, Yukina. We believed we

were meant for each other. Then Seto left on a mission... to protect the daimyo. I stayed and secured

our love in my heart so it would not be lost while he was gone." Sweat and tears mingled at her ruby

lips. "One year later... Seto came... home."

Yukina's memory opened at the scene twenty years ago. Her burning spirit rejoiced as Seto

stood in front of her. They embraced with harms that had waited an eternity for this. She had shed

tears of joy at his return. Yukina felt Seto's arm shift as he unsheathed his sword, pointing the end

playfully on her waist for a moment, then plunging the silver blade into her back.

"He killed me." Her knees sunk to the ground. Yukina bent her head forward and grabbed

the kimono hanging on the wall and wept bitter tears into it. "Because of some other girl... he had to

get me out of the way."

Her nose perked at the familiar sent of a demon. She pulled back her face in sudden surprise

as she saw her tears had fallen not into her kimono, but the hem of Naraku's clothing.

"Congratulations on failing again," the black-clad demon sneered above her. His fangs

glimmered at the edge of his mocking lips.

Sadako eyes seered red with indignation. Forcing strength into her weak legs, she stood and

glared at Naraku.

"This mess-up was on your part," Naraku said. "Not mine. I delivered your murderer to

you."

"Don't you think I know that?"she bit back.

"I told you they were powerful. You didn't heed my warning.."

"Don't chide me!" She slung out her dagger in the direction of the demon's ribs. Naraku

vanished and appeared again behind her, Yukina's attacking wrist gripped in his steely hold.

"Forget not that I could easily destroy Sadako's human body and leave you as the pathetic,

mourning soul you were before!" Naraku bellowed, then whispered, "I made you a demon. I can

easily destroy you." There was a pause as his death threat echoed in her mind . "Now tell me what

went wrong."

"It was that demon hunter... Sango." Sadako spat out the name in sheer disgust. "I wasn't

prepared for her attack. Then, that half-demon awoke Seto before I could murder him as he dreamt

of his dear mother." She paused, deep in thought.

"Next time I fight them," she said. "They need to be on my turf. But how can I lure them

back to Rumiko?"

Naraku stared intensely back at Yukina as though he had heard nothing. "Do you like the

body and powers I've granted you?"

Yukina outstretched her arm forward as if to catch the moonlight. Glimmering, black scales

emerged beneath her pulsating flesh. Her muscles bulged and her nails each pointed the length of her

face, resembling that of a dragon's claw.

"I love it," she whispered in a harsh, pleasurable tone.

Naraku smiled. "Then I have a plan."

Note: okay, in case you're confused with the name change, let me help you. Yukina is the girl who

was murdered by her samurai lover Seto. Naraku gave Yukina's ghost lady Sadako's body to live

in. Understand? Okay. review plz if you haven't and there's soon more to come!
