Chapter 3
...................
When Akagai opened Kagome's eyes, she found herself staring up into a canopy of trees which shed only small cracks of light onto the ground.
She slowly sat up, stretched her limbs, and emitted a small smile.
"Kagome!" a voice came from behind.
Kagome's head turned in time to see a small furry fox-demon scurry into her lap and glare up at her with worried eyes. "You're awake! Thank goodness. We were all worried about you!"
Akagai forced Kagome's lips to smile brighter, "Oh Shippo, I'm perfectly fine! No need to worry..."
"Well that's a good thing..." another voice broke in.
Kagome turned to see both Sango and Miroku standing side by side glaring at her with full smiles.
Kagome held Shippo in her arms as she rose off the ground and stood up again. "Yes, I cannot understand what happened...it was the strangest thing."
Kagome laughed at herself, "Maybe I just woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning!"
"You and Inuyasha both..." Shippo reminded her.
Kagome snuggled the kitsune in her arms, "Speaking of the hanyou turned human...where is he?" Kagome asked.
"He said he needed to be alone...just shortly after you passed out." Miroku announced.
"Do you think he'll be alright? I mean, this is a lot to take." Kagome asked.
"Who knows...?" Miroku added, "But I think it would be best if we scouted around to see if this weirdness had affected others...and not just Inuyasha."
"Agreed." Kagome said, and Sango nodded.
"It has affected others..." Inuyasha's voice echoed to them, as he appeared from within the surround trees.
The group turned to glare at him.
"All half breeds to be exact. Yet, full youkai are unaffected." He finished.
"This is horrible..." Kagome cried. Inuyasha's gaze fell on her.
"You're fucking right this is horrible! I mean, look at me! This isn't supposed to happen!!" He yelped.
"Inuyasha calm down." Sango said.
"Calm down, she says," Inuyasha imitated, "How do you expect me to remain calm when I'm human!?!"
"I still say we should take my advice and go back to the village." Kagome said.
"What good is that going to do me?!?!?" Inuyasha cried.
"You know, the more Lady Kagome suggests going back to the village, the more I'm thinking it would help." Miroku said quietly.
Kagome turned and stared at him, "You think so Miroku?"
"I do indeed. I feel that this change is only the beginning. We could use an opinion from all sides of the situation." Miroku stated.
A smile rose across Kagome's lips. She turned and walked seductively over to Miroku.
Miroku's eyes widened as she approached. Kagome placed a soft hand on his cheek.
"You are a clever one...Miroku." Kagome told him.
"Err...Lady Kagome...?" Miroku stuttered.
Kagome flashed him a beautiful luscious smile, and lowered her hand. Miroku backed off slightly. "Umm...ahh...err...I..." he stuttered.
"Kagome..." Sango said slowly.
"What the hell's gotten into you?" Inuyasha finished.
Kagome whipped around fast, "Oh Inuyasha, I was only playing!" she said cheerfully.
She ran a few steps in the direction of the village, then turned back to the group, "Come on, it's a good three days journey until we get there...better get a move on!"
Inuyasha cocked his head slightly, 'How did she know that?' he wondered.
Inuyasha's eyes turned fast to see Miroku's eyes light up, he quickly ran after Kagome, with a rather familiar perverted look in his eye. "Lady Kagome! Wait up!" he called ahead to her.
Inuyasha charged after him, "Miroku don't you dare!!" he roared.
This left Sango, Shippo, and Kirara staring at the group with mouths hanging open.
Shippo tugged on Sango's leg, "Sango," he asked in a little voice, "what was that all about?"
Sango blushed slightly, "Umm...err...to tell you the truth...Shippo...I...really can't say." She said.
'But something is definitely not right here' she thought to herself.
.........
Deep within Kagome's body, the real Kagome watched in horror as Akagai manipulated her friends.
"You travel with quite and interesting group..." Akagai spoke to her.
Kagome didn't answer her.
"A demon slayer, who is out to avenge her dear brother and family...
A perverted monk, who is cursed with a wind tunnel on his right hand...
A young abandoned fox demon, who you view almost like your child...
And a half dog demon, who you somehow have control over...
And here you are: the reincarnation of the same miko priestess who trapped me in that shell all those years ago. And you're from the future no less...
I dare say, this is a rare situation of fortunate events...wouldn't you agree?"
Kagome couldn't lift her head, but she was able to speak, "You won't win..." Akagai laughed, "Darling, I have already won! As we speak, my powers are pulsating through your veins...my very being is becoming part of you...soon your exterior figure might even begin to take on some of my physical attributes..."
"My friends will see through them and know I am being possessed." Kagome answered bravely.
"Do you forget that you travel with men, my dear? I can promise you that the physical changes to your body, will entice your male adversaries...and I find to understand that you, yourself, have not had any sexual experiences so far in your pathetic little life?"
Kagome whined slightly, "You monster! How dare you!"
"Testy...we are...you lack to comprehend that you and I are now the same being Kagome. I breathe the air you breathe. The nourishment you give your body, you give to me. I am Kagome Higurashi."
............................ One day later .............................................
Akagai spoke the truth. In only one day, Kagome's body began to change.
Small features such as her height and hair length, increased.
Her body became toned and lean, and her breast size increased.
Her clothes no longer fit well. Her shirt was tight due to the increase in her bust size. And her skirt rose higher because of her height change.
...
It was night when the group stopped and set up camp. They were all weary from traveling.
A fire was soon started and they all settled down for the night.
"We have been lucky..." Inuyasha said, staring into the flame, "we haven't come into any kind of contact with a demon."
"Agreed." Miroku said, sitting down next to him. "Yet, I'm sure Sango and I could handle it, if anything was to cross our path."
Inuyasha didn't answer.
"But I can see what you mean..." Miroku added.
Kagome, Sango, and Shippo came and joined the boys by the fire.
"Find a hot spring?" Miroku asked hopefully.
Inuyasha rolled his eyes.
"You wish Miroku!" Sango snapped.
"We did," Kagome interrupted, "But were both too tired to bother..."
Sango nodded.
"Well then, let's get some shut eye." Inuyasha said, leaning back, "We've got a long day's journey ahead of us tomorrow."
"Since when are you excited to get to the village?" Kagome shot at him.
Inuyasha sat up and raised an eyebrow at her, "Since I decided that one of your ideas was actually a smart one."
"Aww, Inuyasha, I'm touched." Kagome said, placing a hand over her heart.
"Feh," Inuyasha replied, "It also makes sense for us to go back... so we don't have to starve in the woods for three days."
"It figures your mind would only think about food." Kagome snapped back.
"Knock it off you two...were trying to sleep." Sango called.
Kagome's lips curved into a smile, "Goodnight Inuyasha" she said in a sing- song voice.
Inuyasha just mumbled something under his breath, and lay down again.
All was quiet and still.
The only sounds came from a purring Kirara. And a faint snore from Miroku.
Yet, deep within Kagome's mind. No one was sleeping.
"Tell me, Kagome, I am getting mixed emotions from you about this hanyou named Inuyasha." Akagai spoke to Kagome.
"I can tell you have a strong bond to this hanyou...but it is either a longing hatred towards him... or a deep love."
"You leave Inuyasha alone!" Kagome said.
"You love his hanyou, yes I see it now...yet, you do not think he returns your affections. How very sad." Akagai said. "It seems that you only remind him of...Kikyo."
"You're wrong!" Kagome shouted.
'Emotion? How strange...she does have some strength left...this seems to be a touchy topic.' Akagai thought.
"I am wrong? But it is all written here...in your head... you think Inuyasha will never return your love because he is still in love with Kikyo. You are worried he is just using you for the Shikon shards." Akagai told her.
"No...he's changed...he cares about me..." Kagome weakly said.
"There is doubt in your voice." Akagai said.
"I think we shall see what he decides..."
"You leave him alone!" Kagome cried out, but to no prevail. Her voice only echoed in her hollow tomb.
..........................
Akagai opened Kagome's eyes and gently stirred her body awake.
It was nearly daybreak.
She lifted her head and gazed around at the surrounding individuals.
They all lay sound asleep.
Kagome slowly stood up. As silently as she could, she crept away from the sleeping group.
She passed by Inuyasha's sleeping form, stopping suddenly, she bent down over him.
"Your demon blood sleeps inside of you, Inuyasha." She whispered to him, "I will awaken it only so that you may follow me."
She waved a hand over his sleeping face. For a flashing second, Inuyasha's hair changed from black to silver again. Then, it settled back to black.
Kagome stood up again, and crept away into the forest; into the direction of the hot spring.
....
Deep within Inuyasha's dream world, he slept soundly.
Then, for only and instant, a wave of essence passed through his censes.
For maybe a second, he wasn't asleep, he was only half asleep. His demon censes were awake and told him of surrounding danger.
In that second, the sweet familiar smell trickled into his nose.
'That smell, I know that smell...Kagome...'
Then it vanished.
Inuyasha's eyes shot open suddenly. He thought for a moment that everything had been a dream. That he never lost his demon abilities...that he was not stuck human.
But a lock of black hair in his face told him that wasn't so.
Yet, for that instant, he could have sworn he had felt his power return to him. Just enough to tell him something.
Inuyasha gazed around at the circle of sleeping people.
Kagome was not among them.
In the gathering morning light, he could see her footprints leading off into the woods.
She had walked out; there was no sign of a struggle.
Although he was human, and could offer her very little protection, if none at all. He still felt a deep feeling of concern and worry for Kagome; it was still his job to protect her.
Inuyasha rose off of the ground. He turned and headed in the direction of Kagome's footprints.
He lacked his demon stealth. But he had long learned to avoid dry sticks and leaves that might make sounds and give him away. So he pressed onward.
Kagome had left a good enough trail for him to follow. Branches and twigs were broken off of saplings and bushes, clearly stating that she had gone this way.
Then, Inuyasha could hear the sound of water. He moved closer towards the sound.
A leafy branch hung in his path, as Inuyasha moved it out of the way, the forest opened up and a rush of steam struck his face. His eyes fell upon the water source...the hot spring.
Directly in the center of the steaming water, half submerged up to her shoulders, was Kagome. Her back was too him, and her hair tied up and piled on top of her head.
Inuyasha froze. This would mean a big sit if Kagome were to catch him spying on her. And him being in his human form...he would probably be dead and buried.
How did Miroku do it every time and still come out alive? Yet Sango wasn't here so it wasn't like he was spying on both of them...wait! What was he thinking... it didn't matter who it was... if they caught him... he would still be in major pain.
Just as Inuyasha was contemplating how to escape, Kagome suddenly began to move in the water.
Inuyasha's eyes fell onto her long neck and shoulders, as they emerged dripping and hot from under the water.
Then, she began to proceed further out of the water.
Inuyasha held in a gasp as she stood up fully. Her long, elegant back appeared from beneath the boiling water. Then, her hips appeared. Inuyasha held his breath as a small portion of her butt became visible.
If her body was turned ever so slightly, he might see more. Inuyasha shook the perverted thought out of his head.
Kagome pulled her arms close to her chest, timidly concealing herself. Inuyasha gulped.
This sight was seriously turning him on. He never imagined that Kagome could look so beautiful. He could never think of Kikyo bathing like this, or of him ever getting to watch her. She'd pin him to a tree again for sure.
Suddenly, Kagome moved again. Inuyasha's mouth fell open, as she lifted her arms away from her chest.
Inuyasha watched her shoulder blade move as she reached up behind her head and began to untie her hair.
Her body turned slightly and Inuyasha could see the outline of her breast. The steam from the water made her skin fairly glisten with a light sweat. Inuyasha hadn't blinked in a long time.
With the pull of a string, the raven hair fell from atop her head and onto her back. A few inches fell underwater. Inuyasha couldn't remember her hair ever being that long. Man, he had really not been paying any attention to Kagome's exquisite features at all.
Inuyasha felt like the tiniest of breezes could carry him away. His heart was in his throat. Maybe it was the human emotions he was under, but he could feel a deep pulsating beat coming from both his heart and his groin. The beat sounded so loudly in his ears he was afraid it might be able to be heard outside his body.
He felt his body sway with ecstasy. He took a step back to catch himself. His back foot landed on the dry ground... and a dry stick.
!Crack!
To him the sound was louder than thunder, it made his ears ring.
His eyes quickly flashed to Kagome. 'Please tell me she didn't hear that... please tell me she didn't hear that!' he softly prayed to himself.
But when he looked up, and Kagome's eyes met his, he knew his prayer was unanswered.
Kagome's brown eyes flashed at him, her mouth formed a straight line.
'Oh no,' Inuyasha thought to himself, 'here it comes...'
Kagome's mouth opened and words came out, Inuyasha winced, but nothing happened, she hadn't said the word, instead she had called his name.
"Inuyasha..."
'What do I say? What do I say?!? Think idiot, think!!' he thought.
"Kagome..." he finally came up with.
"What are you doing?" she asked.
"I...ummm...I was...eh...uhhh...I..." he stuttered.
"Were you watching me?" Kagome asked.
"No..." he said. 'Smooth' he thought to himself.
"Then why are you standing there with your mouth hanging open?" Kagome asked.
'Good question.' he told himself.
Before he could answer, Kagome did the unimaginable. She turned her entire body to face him; she was gently hugging herself to shyly conceal her chest.
"Do you like my body Inuyasha?" Kagome asked him.
Inuyasha couldn't believe she had just said that.
"Kagome...are you ok?" he asked bleakly.
"You didn't answer my question." Kagome stated.
"I...I don't... know..." Inuyasha said.
Kagome pulled her arms tighter around her chest, "Is it because I look like Kikyo?"
He wasn't expecting that.
"No..." he said. 'You look better...' he told himself.
Kagome's gaze dropped, as did her arms. Inuyasha's eyes widened as he glared at Kagome's naked form.
"You know you can have me..." Kagome said.
Inuyasha swallowed hard. This isn't like Kagome. But he couldn't help feel attracted by her words.
"Come here Inuyasha." Kagome told him.
Inuyasha was drawn by the eroticism. Her words were like butter in his ears. He pushed his way out of the trees and stood on the bank of the hot spring.
Kagome was only a few feet away from him, still in the steaming waters.
"Come Inuyasha...come to me." Kagome tempted him.
Inuyasha took a step forward; his bare foot gently sank into the warm waters of the spring.
As if the water had attacked him, Inuyasha quickly removed his foot and took many steps back away from Kagome.
"Inuyasha...?" Kagome begged to him
"No...no Kagome." Inuyasha told her. Kagome's eyes widened she rose farther out of the water, towards him, Inuyasha took another step back.
"Kagome, I don't know what has gotten into you. But...but I know that...that I don't want you like...like this." He said.
"What do you mean Inuyasha? Am I not everything you desire?" Kagome called to him.
"I don't like you like this Kagome. You have never acted like this before...I...I don't want it like this..." Inuyasha said. Then he turned his back to her and began to walk away.
No words followed him as he reached the tree line. Soon the sting of passion was left behind. He walked through the trees towards camp.
But, he stopped suddenly. Turning his head, he looked back in the direction he had come from, "You are everything I desire, Kagome." He whispered.
Then, he continued on his way back to the others.
.....................................
Woo Hoo!! Chapter 3 is done!! Oh Yea! Sorry if this chapter was a little on the "sexual" side. I hope you all realize that Akagai is controlling Kagome...and that the REAL Kagome didn't really say all those sexual things to Inuyasha...
Anywho, don't forget to review if you like what you are reading... the later chapters probably won't be as sexual as this one...just to let you know ; )
..............
Sneak Peak to Chapter 4

The gang arrives back at Keade's village. And Kagome is acting weirder than ever.

Will Akagai reveal herself to everyone? Probably... lol
Let the battle begin! Wait...how can they fight Kagome??!!?? AHH!!

Akagai forced Kagome's lips to smile brighter, "Oh Shippo, I'm perfectly fine! No need to worry..."
"Well that's a good thing..." another voice broke in.
Kagome turned to see both Sango and Miroku standing side by side glaring at her with full smiles.
Kagome held Shippo in her arms as she rose off the ground and stood up again. "Yes, I cannot understand what happened...it was the strangest thing."
Kagome laughed at herself, "Maybe I just woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning!"
"You and Inuyasha both..." Shippo reminded her.
Kagome snuggled the kitsune in her arms, "Speaking of the hanyou turned human...where is he?" Kagome asked.

"Inuyasha calm down." Sango said.
"Calm down, she says," Inuyasha imitated, "How do you expect me to remain calm when I'm human!?!"
"I still say we should take my advice and go back to the village." Kagome said.
"What good is that going to do me?!?!?" Inuyasha cried.

Inuyasha felt like the tiniest of breezes could carry him away. His heart was in his throat. Maybe it was the human emotions he was under, but he could feel a deep pulsating beat coming from both his heart and his groin. The beat sounded so loudly in his ears he was afraid it might be able to be heard outside his body.
He felt his body sway with ecstasy. He took a step back to catch himself. His back foot landed on the dry ground... and a dry stick.
!Crack!
To him the sound was louder than thunder, it made his ears ring.
His eyes quickly flashed to Kagome. 'Please tell me she didn't hear that... please tell me she didn't hear that!' he softly prayed to himself.
But when he looked up, and Kagome's eyes met his, he knew his prayer was unanswered.
Kagome's brown eyes flashed at him, her mouth formed a straight line.
'Oh no,' Inuyasha thought to himself, 'here it comes...'
Kagome's mouth opened and words came out, Inuyasha winced, but nothing happened, she hadn't said the word, instead she had called his name.
"Inuyasha..."
'What do I say? What do I say?!? Think idiot, think!!' he thought.
"Kagome..." he finally came up with.
"What are you doing?" she asked.
"I...ummm...I was...eh...uhhh...I..." he stuttered.
"Were you watching me?" Kagome asked.
"No..." he said. 'Smooth' he thought to himself.
"Then why are you standing there with your mouth hanging open?" Kagome asked.
'Good question.' he told himself.
Before he could answer, Kagome did the unimaginable. She turned her entire body to face him; she was gently hugging herself to shyly conceal her chest.
"Do you like my body Inuyasha?" Kagome asked him.
Inuyasha couldn't believe she had just said that.
"Kagome...are you ok?" he asked bleakly.
"You didn't answer my question." Kagome stated.
"I...I don't... know..." Inuyasha said.
Kagome pulled her arms tighter around her chest, "Is it because I look like Kikyo?"
He wasn't expecting that.
"No..." he said. 'You look better...' he told himself.
Kagome's gaze dropped, as did her arms. Inuyasha's eyes widened as he glared at Kagome's naked form.
"You know you can have me..." Kagome said.
Inuyasha swallowed hard. This isn't like Kagome. But he couldn't help feel attracted by her words.
"Come here Inuyasha." Kagome told him.
Inuyasha was drawn by the eroticism. Her words were like butter in his ears. He pushed his way out of the trees and stood on the bank of the hot spring.
Kagome was only a few feet away from him, still in the steaming waters.
"Come Inuyasha...come to me." Kagome tempted him.
Inuyasha took a step forward; his bare foot gently sank into the warm waters of the spring.
As if the water had attacked him, Inuyasha quickly removed his foot and took many steps back away from Kagome.
"Inuyasha...?" Kagome begged to him
"No...no Kagome." Inuyasha told her. Kagome's eyes widened she rose farther out of the water, towards him, Inuyasha took another step back.
"Kagome, I don't know what has gotten into you. But...but I know that...that I don't want you like...like this." He said.
"What do you mean Inuyasha? Am I not everything you desire?" Kagome called to him.
"I don't like you like this Kagome. You have never acted like this before...I...I don't want it like this..." Inuyasha said. Then he turned his back to her and began to walk away.
No words followed him as he reached the tree line. Soon the sting of passion was left behind. He walked through the trees towards camp.
But, he stopped suddenly. Turning his head, he looked back in the direction he had come from, "You are everything I desire, Kagome." He whispered.
Then, he continued on his way back to the others.

Woo Hoo!! Chapter 3 is done!! Oh Yea! Sorry if this chapter was a little on the "sexual" side. I hope you all realize that Akagai is controlling Kagome...and that the REAL Kagome didn't really say all those sexual things to Inuyasha...
Anywho, don't forget to review if you like what you are reading... the later chapters probably won't be as sexual as this one...just to let you know ; )
..............
