At the moment that Rin screamed out Sesshoumaru's name, Kagura also screamed and clutched her chest. It suddenly felt like it was on fire and being ripped apart. "AHH!!" She yelled as she felt tears of pain stream out of her eyes. Sesshoumaru started to go to her, because she had wrenched out of his arms from the pain, but froze the second he heard Rin's scream of his name. He looked up, fear shooting through him.
"Rin...." He whispered and started to run back but stopped, remembering Kagura. He looked back to her, his mind in turmoil. Rin was in trouble, but so was Kagura.
"..Go....." Kagura said through the pain. She knew how much the little girl meant to him. And to her. She had a horrible feeling about what might be happening to her to make her scream like that. She saw Sesshoumaru hesitate, and looked at him with pleading eyes. "Please.....go help Rin....." She whispered, and he stooped down. He put her face in his hand and looked into her eyes.
"I'll come back....You have my word...." He promised and stood up. He drew the Tokijin, which glowed, and flew into the sky. "Hang on, Rin....Please....Just hang on..." He thought, narrowing his eyes as he caught the scent that he hated. Naraku's. With a snarl, he flew as fast as he could in time to see the darkness rise up and disappear. He watched Naraku's wasps rise and shoot after him. Effortlessly, he waved the Tokijin and blew them into the wind. More came, and he destroyed them, also.
"NARAKU!!!"
he roared at the wraith, his eyes glowing red. He followed it until a wall of
blackness rose in front of him, blocking his path. He tried slashing at it, but
it seemed to make no dent or scratch. The demon Lord started to panic and
little and backed down. Panicking wouldn't help anyone and certainly not Rin.
He landed gently on the ground and sat down, hating himself for having to do
it. But he either had to figure out a way to go around it or destroy it. And
fast.

Rin woke up in a dark room, illuminated by only a small fire in a corner. She sat up and whimpered, terrified. Her head hurt and so did her sides. "S-Sesshoumaru-sama?!" She called, hearing her voice echo and flinching. Tears started to fall from her eyes and she quickly wiped them away. She had to get of here. Wherever here was.
"Leaving so soon?" A cold voice asked, and the young girl froze. A cruel chuckle followed as Naraku appeared. Rin screamed and tried to run away from him. She made it to the door before he appeared in front of her, blocking the way. "Come now. Is that any way to treat a host?"
"LEAVE ME ALONE!!" Rin yelled at him, falling to the floor. Her eyes got wide as the hanyou walked towards her, smirking.
"Young child...I suggest you keep quiet..." Naraku said cruelly, walking to the window. "Lest you wish for me to kill you all the sooner." Rin whimpered, but swallowed and glared at him.
"Y-You better not hurt me! Sesshoumaru-sama will kill you!" She declared bravely, shivering. "And...And I'm not afraid of you! He'll come and save me!"
Naraku grinned. "I am counting on that, my dear...."
~*~
Kagura laid absolutely still, feeling her fast working healing system tend to the slash in her gut. Even if Naraku had intended to kill her, which, she realized, he hadn't, and it wouldn't have worked. She could only die literally by Naraku's hands. Until then, she lived, no matter how serious the wound. She stood up, feeling better physically, but felt alone.
"Naraku...What are you planning!?" She said aloud. "What could possibly want with a—" That's when it hit her.
Naraku would have no ordinary use for a human girl. Unless to be used for bait. Sesshoumaru's paternal instincts ran so deep that not even he would ignore them. It made sense that he would go and retrieve her. That also made him vulnerable. And he was on his way into a dangerous trap. And this one might cost him his life.
The wind sorceress stood up, the wind starting to blow around her. She had to help. She had nothing to lose, except Sesshoumaru. And there was no way in Heaven or all the /-/4115 that she would. Taking a feather from her raven hair, she threw it into the air and flew into her wind, praying she wasn't too late.
~*~
Sesshoumaru was almost shaking with rage and worry. Every minute, every second was against him. The longer Rin was away from his side, the closer she was to death. He had no idea what Naraku would want with her, but it wasn't going to be peaches and cream. He snarled at the darkness, feeling more helpless than he ever had. There was nothing he could think of doing. Not even HIS strength could destroy it. Nor could the Tokijin.
Then, as suddenly as it appeared, it vanished. Sesshoumaru blinked his gold eyes wide with surprise. "What..?" He thought, walking over to where it had been. His hand felt no resistance. Feeling a sudden adrenaline rush surge through his body as he realized that it was gone. He could go and save Rin. She wasn't going to die.
With an OOC roar of triumph, the taiyoukai flew into the air and into the direction of Naraku's castle, going faster that he had ever before. "Prepare yourself Naraku...YOUR JUDGEMENT DAY IS COMING!!! I SWEAR IT!"
~*~
She could see it. The ominous darkness that surrounded the dark and twisted castle that had once been her home. She could feel the despair and evil in the air. It made her sick. And filled with a fury she had never known in her short life. Her crimson eyes narrowed viciously as she started to pant from pure and deep hatred. She looked around, hoping she could beat Sesshoumaru to the castle. If she didn't, and he got caught in a trap....
"Stop thinking like that!!" Kagura scolded herself harshly, as if even thinking like that would make it happen. Her wounds were almost totally healed, though she still felt a little weak. But that wasn't about to stop her. Nothing would. Not if she could help it. Her life had been nothing but misery and torment until she met Sesshoumaru. And she wasn't about to lose him. Even if it meant sacrificing her own life.
