Chapter 4: Naraku!

As Kagome reached the village, she found herself surrounded with people. They had somehow received news that their beloved miko was now leaving them.

She received numerous amounts of gifts from the villagers ranging from food to weaponry when she went out in the woods to hunt. At first, she had tried to refuse, feeling like she was robbing them of their possessions, but they wouldn't take no for an answer. They insisted it on her, not allowing for her to say otherwise.

After she finally managed to reach Kaede's hut, she was once more bombarded with gifts. This time they were gifts of a more magical and healing nature. Sango had given her a tearful hug and called for Kirara to become Kagome's body guard.

Kagome merely gave in, knowing that there would be no way to dissuade her. It had taken her long enough to convince Sango that she was capable of traveling on her own. Luckily for her, she had spoken to Kirara ahead of time and forbade her from following her.

Miroku on the other hand seemed distraught because now he no longer had a second female to grope. Yet, deep down, Kagome knew that Miroku thought of her as the sister he never had.

Kaede had given her words of encouragement and a few healing herbs and a small package of food and water for the journey ahead of her.

Turning on heel, she began to leave until she was randomly smacked down by a red furball.

" Kagome-chan, Don't leave me.."

Kagome turned around to see her tearful pup staring up at her. He was clutching onto her shirt with all his strength, as if that was enough to stop her from leaving. Kagome's heart lurched when she saw the pain that flashed in his eyes. Reaching down, Kagome gently pulled him into her arms.

" Well I can't go anywhere without you…now can I?"

She watched as his face lit up with joy.

" Oh thank you MAMA!!"

Kagome smiled lightly and began to stroke her pet's fur. Then she turned and gently lifted her back pack, which was now filled with food and other provisions.

Waving farewell to her friends, she began to head into the forest. Yet she was abruptly stopped again by a blur of silver.

Immediately, a low growl began to form in the depths of her throat.

" Inuyasha."

The hanyou stared at her. His face hardened with determination.

" I'm not going to let you leave Kagome."

Kagome could feel her eyes begin to narrow.

" And why not?"

Suddenly, Inuyasha lunged towards her and grabbed her by her wrist. Yelping in surprise, she found herself falling against Inuyasha's chest. Blushing slightly, she attempted to pull herself away only to feel his grip tighten. Once more, Kagome yelped aloud, this time not from surprise but from the shock of pain.

" Ow.. Inuyasha let me go, you're hurting me.."

" No."

With this, his grip got even tighter drawing blood from her arm.

" Stop it Inuyasha." Kagome said more firmly, her anger beginning to rise.

" No."

Then once more, his grip grew tighter. It came to the point in which she could feel his claws grazing beneath her skin. Kagome moaned from the pain, and struggled to get out of his grasp.

Shippo jumped up and landed on top of Inuyasha's head and began to scratch away at his face.

" Let go of her, Inuyasha!"

A deep guttural laugh escaped from Inuyasha's throat. Kagome could feel his grip begin to lighten, and eventually she was released.

Jumping backwards, Kagome began to rub her sore wrist. She watched helplessly as Inuyasha flung Shippo away from his head, making him land hard on the ground with a sickening thud. Glancing back at Inuyasha, she watched in horror as his features changed.

His eyes glowed blood red, his hair blew dramatically in the wind. His aura seemed to be darkened somehow, no this wasn't Inuyasha. It was something worse… something deadly.

Kagome dove over to Shippo's body, and quickly grabbed him into her arms.

The creature that looked like Inuyasha lunged at Kagome, who was only barely able to pull up a shield. Using a spectacular surge of her power, she sent Inuyasha flying backwards.

Kagome took advantage of this time and ran. She ran directly into the forest as fast as she could, clutching the unconscious Shippo in her arms.

A low growl echoed through the forest, only making Kagome's incentive to run intensify. What the hell was wrong with Inuyasha?

********************************************************************************************************************

Inuyasha walked across the lake bed, occasionally tossing small pebbles into it. It was his fault she left. Though he may not have intentionally tried to hurt her, he had done it nonetheless..

Reflecting back, all the insults he had spouted to her…all the times he had left her to go search for Kikyo.

He had treated her terribly. Guilt began to plague Inuyasha's heart. Regret of all sort began to rise in his chest.

A single tear fell down his face. Yet he refused to wipe it away. He deserved whatever punishment in life that he would eventually receive.

Suddenly , a loud shriek of terror erupted through the forest.

Recognizing the voice as Kagome's, Inuyasha leapt up and ran as fast as he could to rescue Kagome.

********************************************************************************************************************

Kagome found herself pinned to the side of a tree. Inuyasha's claws embedded deep into her stomach.

The copper taste of blood filled her mouth, eventually trickling down the side of her pale face. Her gray eyes were wide with shock, while her hands gripped onto Inuyasha's own.

Her vision slowly began to blur as he ripped his hand out of her diaphragm, only to lick the blood off his claws while smiling maliciously.

" Inuyasha….why. . . " she panted out.

His amber eyes gazed coldly down at her.

" Mine."

Kagome, in her weakened state, managed to pull herself up from the tree trunk.

" Yours?"

Inuyasha edged closer to her, his eyes glittering malevolently.

" No one takes what is mine…"

In a flash, his clawed hand wrapped itself around her throat. Slowly strangling what little bit that was left in her body.

Lightly, she whispered the only word that could come to mind.

" Osuwari….Inuyasha. . ."

Yet to Kagome's shock, it didn't work.

" What…"

She watched as Inuyasha smirked at her, then tighten his grip on her throat. She could feel the pulls of darkness creeping up into her eyes, her body begging for her to relinquish her struggle.

" Mine…" she heard Inuyasha whisper into her ear.

Her pupils began to dilate, and her lungs felt like they were shriveling up from the lack of air.

" Please….someone…help…."

And with this, Kagome passed out from both exhaustion and blood loss. As Inuyasha felt her body fall limp in her arms, he allowed for himself to lean down and gently nip at the lower nape of her neck.

" All mine…"

Then he hoisted her body over his shoulder and leapt into the air dragging along the unconscious kitsune.

**********************************************************************************************************************

" Dammit, where is she?"

Inuyasha glanced around frantically.

Kagome's blood was still wafting through the air. It was enough to make a normal person heave.

' Damn, I can't sense anyone else's presence?'

Calming his raging blood, Inuyasha took in a deep breath. Closing his eyes, he attempted to use his hanyou senses to pick up any hidden scents.

After a small amount of time, Inuyasha's eyes snapped back open.

' Naraku. . . '

Before Inuyasha had a chance to leap away, he found himself slamming into the ground.

Whipping around, he found himself face to face with two of the most emotionless eyes he had ever seen.

" What do you want Sesshomaru?" he snarled.

Sesshomaru lunged at him, and grabbed him by his neck and hoisted him into the air.

" Where is she?"

Inuyasha used his feet to kick Sesshomaru off him.

" None of your damn business." he shot back.

Sesshomaru snarled back at him and shot him a look so deadly that it would make an entire army drop dead.

" Tell me." he hissed.

Inuyasha growled deep in his throat and prepared himself to lunge at Sesshomaru. Yet his actions were interrupted by a small girl latching himself to Sesshomaru's leg.

" Sesshou-Chan… Where is Okeesan?"

Sesshomaru glanced at Rin.

" My idiot half brother has seemed to have lost her."

Rin's eyes opened wide with shock then turned to glare at Inuyasha. She ran over to Inuyasha before Sesshomaru could stop her, and kicked Inuyasha directly in the knee.

" Bad Dog!!, You should be punished!"

Inuyasha glared at her.

" Why you little…"

Suddenly, Jaken burst through a bush. His body shaking with uncontrollable breaths.

" Lord Sesshomaru…the human child….she…she…" he began to spout but was cut short when he saw that Rin was standing there.

Sesshomaru stared at Jaken, blankly. All emotions devoid on his face.

" She was doing what Jaken?"

Jaken's eyes widened with fear.

" She…she…wandered away…."

Sesshomaru raised an eyebrow at him, and hissed underneath his breath.

" I shall deal with you later."

Jaken swallowed hard, and looked as if he were to pass out.

" Y..y…yes Lord Sesshomaru. "

Sesshomaru turned away from him and glared at Inuyasha.

" Where is she?"

Inuyasha glared back at him.

" Why should you care?"

Sesshomaru merely shrugged and walked away into the woods.

*******************************************************************************************************************

So beautiful…

Naraku stared down at the raven haired beauty before him. She would wake soon. The fool had nearly destroyed her beyond repair. She was lucky she had made it here when she did.

In order to keep her body alive, he had to insert a piece of the shikon jewel into her stomach. Then he carefully inserted some of his own blood to complete the transformation.

Not only would she be a powerful miko, she would now be a hanyou. A hanyou miko under his control. Kikyo was unreliable, you could never tell when she would betray you. No, no he didn't want that… he wanted someone loyal.

That damned dog demon didn't deserve someone like her. She was loyal and honorable to him, despite all that he had done to her..

That was the kind of person he needed…

' Kagura would stab me while my back was turn….no she's no good…'

A light moan snapped him back into reality. Glancing downwards he watched as the beautiful miko began to awaken.

As her eyes fluttered open, he noticed the dramatic change in her demeanor. Her usually vibrant gray eyes were now dull and lifeless.

" Sit up Higurashi Kagome."

She did as she was ordered.

" Who do you obey?"

" I obey you Master Naraku."

Her voice was monotonous matching with her listless gray eyes.

Naraku moved towards her, and brushed his lips gently against her own soft ones.

Still she made no response whatsoever.

In attempt to get some kind of reaction, he began to kiss her harder, occasionally darting his tongue in and out of her mouth. Yet, she remained unmovable.

' Hmm…I should change some things later.'

Turning around, he began to head out of the room.

" Follow me."

She was still scantily clad in her white shirt and green skirt when he had her brought to him. So he ordered for Kanna to get her a new kimono for the time being.

The kimono reached down to her upper thighs, not much longer than her original skirt. It's silky fabric was dyed jet black and crimson red so it could contrast with her eyes and hair. Around her arms and ankles were a series of silver bracelets. Her hair flowed down below her waist, and it was tinted with red streaks the same as her tail. She had two silver hoops in her ears, and a matching silver necklace. After all, she didn't need to look like some lowly human when she could be revered as the beauty she truly was.

Naraku walked down the hallway, the soft sound of feet pattering soon came after.

" Mama?" came a soft voice.

Naraku watched as the Miko turned to face the small kitsune.

" Shippo." she spoke, her tone still monotonous.

Almost instantly, the kitsune leapt into her arms, snuggling itself closer.

Naraku had the child under his influence now. He currently believed that he and the miko were now his new mother and father.. He would be of more use this way. If the miko were ever to see her "pup" killed she may be able to break the spell… and he couldn't have that.

" How are you feeling Mama?" he asked timidly.

Kagome lightly stroked the little pup's fur, making him purr in pleasure.

" Fine, dear."

Naraku turned away from the two as he felt the dog demon's presence.

' Mmm…he's coming.'

Gently sliding the wooden door to the side, he walked outside and sat down upon the steps Indian style. Without looking, he ordered one of his servants to bring him his pelt and the boy. Then he discreetly ordered for Kagome to sit beside him.

Kagome sat down regally, her hair falling in front, framing her delicate face. Shippo remained on her lap, his eyes devoid of any emotion.

Naraku turned to look at Kagome and smiled.

" They are coming, love."

Kagome showed no response, she merely stared ahead as a furious dog demon came bursting into the clearing.

" NARAKU!!"

Naraku calmly watched as the dog demon unsheathed the Tetsusaiga angrily. This did not come to as any shock, the dog demon was rash and he did things on an impulse. The only thing that came to shock for him was who had came with him.

Sesshomaru, of the Western Lands, stood next to Inuyasha. His face betraying no emotion whatsoever.

" Welcome, Inuyasha and Sesshomaru of the Western Lands."

Inuyasha snarled and tried to lunge at Naraku, but was instantly stopped by a rapid chain shooting forward and latching itself around Inuyasha's ankle.

Turning around, Inuyasha saw a small boy, Kohaku to be exact holding on to the opposite end of the chain. Whipping around, Inuyasha was about to send a glare when his gaze finally set upon Kagome.

" Kagome…."

Oho yeah, another Cliffy.. I know.. I'm a bad bad person.

Inuyasha: Yes, yes you are.

Sesshomaru: Hush yourself Inuyasha.

Inuyasha: Why don't you make me?

Sesshomaru: How dare you admonish me you low life vermin?!!!

Inuyasha: Easily, first you ask me a question and then I answer with a snappy comeback and then. .

*RoguesHeart comes out of nowhere and dropkicks Inuyasha*

RoguesHeart: And then you receive your just reward.

Sesshomaru: A swift kick in the ass?

RoguesHeart: Exactly.

Rin: Come back Jaken-san!!

Jaken: Get away from you ningen!!

*Rin tackles Jaken to the ground and makes him eat dirt*

Jaken: Lord Sesshomaru. . . See what this human does to me.. .

Sesshomaru: So?..

Jaken: So. . .

Sesshomaru: So what do you want me to do about it?

*RoguesHeart grins evilly*

RoguesHeart: Maybe you should turn your head and cough..

Jaken: WHAT!!

*Sesshomaru cracks up*

Jaken: But sir. . .

Sesshomaru: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

*Jaken goes and sulks in a corner*

*RoguesHeart turns to face her readers*

RoguesHeart: Be little dears and review for this little youkai, would you? It would please me ever so. As you can tell, the more reviews I get, the more I write. . . *throws hands into the air dramatically* IF YOU REVIEW, EVERYONE WINS!! PLUS YOU GET A FREE SESSHOMARU CLONE!!

Sesshomaru: I don't remember agreeing to those terms. . .

RoguesHeart: Sure you do. .

Sesshomaru: No. . .

*RoguesHeart glares at Fluffy chan*

Sesshomaru: That trick doesn't work on me, human.

RoguesHeart: Dammit, How many times do I have to tell you, I AM A YOUKAI!!

*Sesshomaru rolls his eyes*

Sesshomaru: Sure. . .

*RoguesHeart glares at Sesshomaru*

RoguesHeart: You try my patience, Sesshomaru of the Western Lands.

Sesshomaru: So, what are you going to do about it?

*Whips out chains and wraps it around Sesshomaru, then hangs him from the ceiling.*

*RoguesHeart turns to readers*

RoguesHeart: Review for me, if you want your precious Sesshomaru back unhurt.

Sesshomaru: Yes, please do. . This woman is crazy.

RoguesHeart: What did you say, Fluffy boy?

Sesshomaru: Nothing..
