Chapter 2

Inu Yasha had this bad feeling. Something had happened to Kagome and he hadn't been there to protect her.

He was still staring at Kagome's mom who was now waving a hand in front of his face, and talking rapidly.

He couldn't hear any of it. 'What happened to Kagome?'

He finally snapped out of it when he was slapped across the face. Kagome's mom was staring at him red-faced and crying.

She seemed to calm herself a bit and asked, "Inu Yasha. Where-is-my- daughter?"

Inu Yasha thought maybe he should lie, but that wouldn't be fair. "I don't know." He said honestly, "I just don't know..."

Meanwhile...

The door to the cold chamber opened and a smug-looking Karaku walked in. "So are you ready my dear?"

Kagome stared in horror, he had given her three days to herself and she had thought of all the things he could do to her. She had slept very little, and when she did she kept waking up because of the nightmares.

"What do you want with me?" Kagome asked her voice trembling. "Don't touch me." She cried when he walked closer.

"Now, now don't cry." He said in a mocking voice, "this won't hurt...much." He finished with an evil grin.

Kagome's tear streaked face had a mask off horror on it.

Karaku called, "Taku Hashu!"

The door opened and a figure walked in. when he stepped into the light Kagome caught her breath.

* ~ * ~ * ~ *

"Inu Yasha we're going out to search." A distressed Sango said after hearing that Kagome had never gone home.

"Yah where are you going to start, we have no idea what happened to her..." Inu Yasha replied with guilt in his voice. 'I should have been with her.'

"We'll all split up and search in different directions." Miroku said, his voice also betraying that he was worried and didn't really know what to do.

"Alright, I'll got to the well and try to find her scent you guys...just spread out I guess." Inu Yasha said, and then ran off to the well.

When he was out of ear shot Sango turned to Miroku, "He's really worried. As a matter if fact so am I."

"I'm worried too." You could see in his eyes he was telling the truth.

"How are we going to tell Shippou?" Miroku asked as an after thought.

* ~ * ~ *

Inu Yasha had arrived at the well and was searching for Kagome's scent.

When he didn't find it he sat down on the grass and thought.

'Alright if her scent isn't here it's gotta be in her time, but her scent is all over...'

He honestly didn't know what to do. He jumped up and walked to a tree seeming calm. But then he punched the tree in frustration and anger at himself. The tree fell to the ground with a racket. Then he just stood there full of guilt.

He was so lost in his thoughts that he didn't hear the footsteps approaching from behind. "Missing something?"

Inu Yasha turned quickly around to find Kikyo standing beside a tree, watching him.

"What are you talking about?" he asked when her words had finally registered. "I mean she's gone and you'll never find her." Kikyo laughed.

Inu Yasha was getting angrier by the moment.

"What did u do to her?" he growled.

"Oh Inu Yasha." She said mockingly, "what makes you think I have anything to do with this?"

"Tell me wench!" he took a step forward.

Her mocking smile turned back to her expressionless mask, "I was not lying. I swear you will never find her! You belong to me! Not her, not anyone else!" Then she turned around and walked away.

Inu Yasha made to follow but was stopped by her next words, "If you even dare follow me, she will die." Then she disappeared.
