Varan: Well Christmas is over. *sigh* oh well. I had a good Christmas! I got a HUGE poster with Kurama's human and demon forms!! I LOVE my younger brother!!!
Kurama: Hmm not a bad likeness.
Varan: Yep! Oh and Kurama! Thanks for the necklace! It's beautiful!
Kurama: You're welcome.
Varan: Ok so review responses let's see....
Matt: Oh ok I get it. Sure go ahead! It should be cool. Make sure you put in the subduing spell thing! I love watching Inuyasha get pounded into the ground! lol
Sashlea: Yes I have been sick for almost two weeks now! My cough is refusing to go away but it has calmed down a bit.
Bwahahaha: Don't worry, I plan on making Naraku suffer greatly!
Varan: Ok then now we get to see what happens to Kagome.
Inuyasha: What about Kagome?
Varan: Oh right you haven't found out yet.
Inuyasha: What?
Angel: Maybe you shouldn't tell him yet. He might do something rash.
Varan: *nod* Yeah
Shippo: But Kagome!
Varan: Don't worry Shippo, he'll find out in a minute.
Inuyasha: WHAT?!
Varan: Geez keep your pants on Inuyasha! Here look for yourself!
Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha or Yu Yu Hakusho blah blah blah.
"SHE'S BEEN WHAT?!," Inuyasha raged. The others had finished off the rest of the demons and found Kagome was gone. They immediately went to find Inuyasha. They were beginning to wonder if it was such a good idea after all. Inuyasha was livid with rage. "HOW COULD YOU LET HER GET KIDNAPPED?" Without waiting for a reply he ran out of the castle as fast as he could. He could feel Kagome's presence through his mark. How DARE Naraku take Kagome away from him? He would pay dearly for this, Inuyasha would make sure of that. Starfire flew up along side him. She needed to help find Kagome, she was her partner after all. They had to look out for each other. Sango and the others stood there for a moment after Inuyasha and Starfire had left. They were about to follow but Darkwing blocked their path.
"What are you doing Darkwing? Move! We have to save Kagome!" Darkwing shook his head.
: We can't Sango. We can't leave the Shikon no Tama unprotected. :
"But we can't just leave Kagome!," Ayame protested.
: We will have to trust in Starfire and Inuyasha to save her, : Earthsong told her. : They're the only ones who can track her anyway. I there isn't any kind of trail for us to follow. I couldn't even find her scent. :
"But..." Sesshomaru stepped forward cutting off her protest.
"They are correct. Our duty is to protect the Shikon no Tama. Don't worry, my brother will succeed. He would never allow someone to take his bitch from him."
"His bitch?," echoed Rin. "So he DOES like her! I told you Ayame!"
"Oh shut up Rin, this is not the time to gloat about something like that!"
"I agree," added Miroku. "For now we should station ourselves near the jewl, in case Naraku attacks again." Sango sighed in defeat.
"Alright," she agreed, reluctantly. She turned to look over the hills in which Inuyasha and Starfire had disappeared in. A light breeze blew through making the grass ripple and trees to bend slightly. She prayed her friends were right and Inuyasha would save her.
Kagome sat in a dark holding cell. Gee, what did this remind her of? She thought sarcastically. The cell was just like the one she had been in when she had first met Inuyasha. Inuyasha. He must know she was gone by now but...would he come for her? She hoped so. Suddenly she heard footsteps heading towards her. She stood, ready to attack if necessary. A magical light flared, and she could see the man who was approaching her. He had long flowing black hair and his blood red eyes watched her with cold amusement. His aura was dark, and made her sick to her stomach just being near it. This must be the evil Kaede had told her about.
"Naraku," she growled, fighting the urge to hurl. He smirked at her.
"Yes I am Naraku. And you are Kagome correct?" She crossed her arms over her chest in a classic Inuyasha pose.
"Yes. And if you know my name, then you must know who I am correct?," she countered.
"That is correct. You are the fire witch." She nodded and uncrossed her arms to crack her nuckles.
"And if you know who I am, then you should know this puny cell can't hold me." As the last word passed her lips she blasted the cell door with a ball of fire. There was a flash of light as it hit, but something unexpected happened. Her fire had disappeared and the door was still intact. Naraku chuckled quietly.
"Fool. Of course I knew an ordinary cell couldn't hold you," he told her. "That's why I put a shield over it to absorb magical attacks. Your powers are useless."
"You bastard," she snarled. "What do you want with me anyway? Why don't you just kill me and get it over with?" He smiled at her. That smile filled her with a cold feeling of fear.
"I have plans for you my dear. Once I have broken you, you will make a most excellent concubine." Her eyes flashed with barely contained rage.
"Never! I would never submit to being a concubine! How dare you even say that?! When I get out of this cell I am going to flame you to hell where you belong you sick freak!" He laughed again.
"You shall see. I can be most...persuasive...when I need to be. You will be broken. It is only a matter of time." He smirked at her again then left, extinguishing the light as he did. Kagome fumed in anger. How dare he?! That sick bastard! But...as long as she was in this cell there was nothing she could do. She sat down on the cell floor with a sigh.
"Inuyasha, please hurry."
Inuyasha felt a wave of anger and fear through his connection to Kagome. He ran even faster when he felt it. Kagome was in trouble! He had to get to her before that bastard Naraku did anything to her! Suddenly Starfire pulled over hissing angrily, her scales turning a deep red in color. Inuyasha stopped as well. Standing in front of them was a female demon.
"You!," Starfire spat out. "You're the one who took Kagome!" Inuyasha laid a hand on Starfire's shoulder.
"It's ok Starfire, she's on our side," he told her. Starfire looked at him in disbelief.
"But she kidnapped Kagome!," she protested. "She is working for Naraku!" Kagura bowed her head.
"I am sorry about that," she said. "But I had to or else Naraku would have suspected me."
"I understand," Inuyasha assured her. He turned to the still angry Starfire. "She is one of the spies I told you about. She can help us get Kagome back." Kagura nodded.
"Yes, it is the least I can do. But we must hurry before Naraku begins breaking her." Inuyasha growled angrily.
"What does he want with her?" Kagura grimaced at the thought of what Naraku wanted her for.
"He wants to make her his concubine." Inuyasha's growl rose in volume.
"No fucking way! I won't allow him to do that to Kagome! Take me to her NOW!"
"Follow me, but be silent. We don't want to call attention to ourselves." They ran across the land to Naraku's hideout.
Kagome jumped once again when she heard more footsteps. She felt a familiar presence in the back of her mind.
: Starfire? Starfire is that you? : She felt her familiar's joy when their mental connection was reestablished.
: Kagmome! Yes I'm here. Inuyasha and I came to save you! We'll be there in a moment!: Kagome grinned. Inuyasha was here too. He DID care about her! Then she heard him calling to her.
"Kagome! Kagome where are you?"
"Inuyasha! Starfire! Over here!," she yelled back. She used her power to light up the room. Inuyasha saw her and ran up to her.
"Kagome! Are you alright?," he asked.
"I'm fine, now do me a favor and GET ME OUTTA HERE!" Inuyasha gave a relieved laugh.
"You're ok. Thank God. Hang on, I'll have you out in a second." He took the key Kagura had given him and unlocked the cell. Kagome walked out, relief evident on her face.
"Thanks Inuyasha," she told him. "I'm glad you came for me." He didn't reply, but instead pulled her into a fierce hug. Just as suddenly he pulled away and grabbed her chin, forcing her to look at him.
"Don't ever scare me like that again Kagome!," he ordered angrily. "Ever! I was so worried that I wouldn't get here in time and that bastard would have-" He growled angrily, unable to finish his sentence. "He didn't do anything to you did he?" Kagome peeled his hand off her chin and shook her head.
"No Inuyasha, he didn't even touch me," she assured him squeezing his hand gently. "You don't know how relieved I am that you found me so quickly. You do know what he was going to do don't you?" Inuyasha growled even more loudly.
"Yes I know what he was going to do, and I would never allow that to happen! I would never allow that bastard to do such a thing to you! I'm going to rip him apart for even attempting it!" Kagome gasped at Inuyasha's ferocity. Why was he so angry?
"Inuyasha what's gotten into you? You've never acted like this before." He looked down at her, amber eyes practically glowing with protectiveness and possessiveness.
"He'll never touch what's mine." Kagome glared at him. So it was the whole slaves are possessions thing huh?
"Look Inuyasha, I'm not a possession or an object. I belong to no one but myself, and you'd best remember that!" She gave and impressive growl- for a human- as she talked. Inuyasha shook his head.
"No Kagome you are not an object, but you do belong to me. You're MY bitch. I refuse to let anyone else have you!" His gaze softened and he pulled her close again. She straightened and tried to pull away, but he kept a firm grip. He pulled her up against his chest and nuzzled her neck. "Kagome, I was so scared when you were taken away from me. It's my job to protect you and I allowed you to be taken away. It made me so angry! And when I heard what he was going to do to you...well...I lost it. I couldn't allow him to do that to you. I was so afraid that I would loose you forever." She stopped struggling abruptly as she absorbed what he had said. He had been afraid of loosing her? Did that mean he cared about her. She slowly pushed away from him, just enough to be able to look into his eyes.
"Inuyasha, what are you saying?," she asked.
"Stupid bitch, haven't you figured it out yet?," he grumbled.
"Inuyasha," she warned. He chuckled and was about to reply, when Starfire interrupted him.
"Ahem, as much as I hate to interrupt, we are in the middle of our enemy's hideout. Perhaps you should finish this conversation AFTER we get home." Inuyasha growled again.
"We're not leaving until I kill Naraku." Kagome sighed and pulled away from him.
"Sit boy." Inuyasha fell. He glared up at her.
"What the fuck was that for?!" She sighed and crouched down next to him. She grabbed one of his ears and pulled his head up.
"Look, Naraku is strong. We can't do it alone. Let's go back to the others and think up a plan. Then we can come back and kill him alright?"
"Feh," Inuyasha replied standing. "Fine, but I will make sure he pays for what he did." Kagome shook her head.
"Well come on then, let's go! This place gives me the creeps!," said Starfire. She turned away and left the room. Kagome made to follow, but was stopped by Inuyasha.
"Inuyasha what are you-?" Her question was cut off as Inuyasha's mouth covered hers in a brief kiss, leaving her momentarily stunned.
"There," he said satisfied. Then he turned and followed Starfire. Kagome blinked and quickly followed after him, still somewhat stunned. Inuyasha had just kissed her. She was getting confused. What had he meant earlier. She would have to ask someone when she got back.
Varan: That's it for this chapter! Next chapter they call in some allies and Kagome finally gets some answers!
Shippo: Who are the allies?
Varan: You'll see Shippo, you'll see.
Kurama: Koga will be interested.

Inuyasha: *blush* Grrrrr you little runt! Come here! *Starts chasing Shippo*
Shippo: Ahhhhh! Kagome!
Kagome: Sit!
Varan: *sigh* Shippo when will you learn?
Shippo: *shrug* Never I guess.
Kurama: Seems so.
