Chapter 13
"Who the hell are you?" Inuyasha yelled, putting his arm around Kagome protectively. "Just a servant. I am simply here to give you a message." The mysterious figure replied, stepping out of the shadows. It was a demon, and Inuyasha knew that it wasn't weak. "Who is your master?" Kagome asked, trying to stay behind Inuyasha. "I am not allowed to tell you that. I have been instructed to lead you to him, though." The servant said. "Okay, I'll go. Kagome's family better still be alright, though, or you and your master will die." Inuyasha replied. "And it won't be a slow death." Inuyasha growled, flashing his claws menacingly. "You can't go alone, Inuyasha. I'm going with you!" Kagome said, tugging on his sleeve. "It's too dangerous, Kagome. I could never forgive myself if something happened to you." Inuyasha answered, pulling his sleeve loose from her grasp. "I don't care if it's dangerous! I'm going to help rescue my family!" Kagome yelled. "Her mind is made up. There's no point in arguing." Inuyasha thought to himself. "Fine, but you better be able to take care of yourself. I can't spend the entire time saving you." Inuyasha rudely replied. Kagome looked furious. "Inuyasha, SIT!!!" Kagome yelled. "UGGGGHHHH!!!" Inuyasha yelled as his face slammed into the ground. "Haven't felt that in awhile," He thought. "Guess I deserved it, though."
The servant led Inuyasha and Kagome to a large warehouse about 3 miles down the road. "My master is waiting for you in here." The demon said, pointing at the door. "Fine." Inuyasha said angrily, kicking the door down. He ran in with Kagome, and she was the first to spot her family, sitting together in a chair. They were tied up and gagged, but they looked unharmed. "Thank goodness." Kagome thought. Inuyasha ran towards Kagome's family, but he was knocked back before he could get there. A shadowy figure with lightning speed had buzzed in front of Inuyasha and slammed him down before he could even see it. "Who the hell are you?" Inuyasha asked this new opponent. He was strong, unlike anyone Inuyasha had ever run across. Suddenly, the new enemy stepped out of the shadows, and his face looked stunningly familiar to Inuyasha. "How long I have waited to meet you, Inuyasha. I knew that I could get you here by kidnapping that girl's family." The demon said, pointing at Kagome. "I have spent over two hundred years plotting my revenge against you, and I will finally get it by killing you and your girlfriend." "I am Kiaku." The demon said. "Kiaku? I've never heard of you before in my life. Why do you want to kill me so much?" Inuyasha asked, confused. "You haven't figured it out, yet, puppy? You killed my father and left my mother heartbroken! I am the son of Naraku and Kikyo!" Kiaku responded with fire in his eyes. "WHAT??????" Inuyasha yelled, completely shocked. "You look so surprised. The only look I want to see on your face when I kill you is fear." Kiaku rasped bitterly.
Shortly after Inuyasha told Kikyo how he felt about Kagome, she wandered through the forest, heartbroken. Inuyasha was the only person she had ever loved, and if she couldn't die with him, what would she do? Before she knew what was going on, Naraku appeared in front of her again. Kikyo knew that he was in love with her, as he was always jealous of her feelings for Inuyasha. She was desperate, and she wanted to feel SOMETHING. ANYTHING. Naraku loved her, even though she didn't return his feelings. Naraku prepared himself for a fight, and he was shocked when Kikyo threw herself into his arms. "I love you, Naraku." Kikyo lied. Naraku didn't believe her, but he didn't care. He had always wanted her, and now he had his chance. He took Kikyo in his arms and flew back to his castle with her. You could guess what they did that night (they were both desperate, remember), and Kikyo soon realized that she was pregnant. Naraku was killed by Inuyasha and Kagome, and Kikyo was left to raise her son (who she would name "Kiaku") all by herself. She quickly realized that Kiaku was powerful, and she decided to use that to her advantage. Although she raised him well and took good care of him, she made sure to plant a deep hatred for Inuyasha in his head. She was slowly dying, and she wanted to make sure that Inuyasha wouldn't spend the rest of his life with Kagome. Kikyo figured that her son, with all of his power and abilities, would one day kill Inuyasha. That way, Inuyasha could be with her! Kikyo would die when Kiaku was only 15, but her seeds of hatred were already well-planted by then. As Kiaku grew older, his hatred for Inuyasha grew. He would wait until just the right moment to kill Inuyasha and make sure that he never had the chance to find true happiness. Now, Kiaku has decided, is the time for Inuyasha to meet his fate.
