Kagome squirmed uncomfortably in the bag. "Bow, Bow, wheres my bow?", She muttered, feeling around in the bag. No! I left it at Kaedes! The bag gave a particularly rude jostle, and Narakus voice came floating though the seams.

"Don't get any ideas.", He warned her. He bounced the bag again, and it hit a branch. Kagomes head was impacted, and she was out cold.
Inuyasha jumped over the trees, Kirara following, faithful to Sangos command. "Come on!" He growled angrily, as Kagomes scent began to fade. He was tiring, but could not give up.

Kagomes life was at sake. How could he give up while she was still alive. And Kagome was very much alive. The fact pounded in his blood, and gave a powerful boost to his waning energy.

"Inuyasha, we have to take a break. Even if we reach the place in time, we wont be able to fight Naraku. We need rest." Sango was just as unhappy at quitting, but she still had reason. She was not sure if they would make it in time, but if they reached the place like this, How could they battle Naraku?

"Sango is right Inuyasha. We cannot hope to win any fights as tired as this."

"I think we should keep going."

"SHUT UP!", Inuyasha roared, fighting to be heard over their bickering. I see the place. He thought with satisfaction. DDDD, Kagome. How could you get lost like this?!

Kagome blinked. She was in a castle. But who am I? Whose castle is this? Vaguely, she thought she heard noises. "where am I?", she asked hesitantly. Nobody heard her.

"naraku-" an woman said to a black-haired man, who apparently was named Naraku. Kagome could not ever remember seeing one before, she couldn't remember anything at that, but when she saw that man, and heard him speak, the first thing she thought was 'Snake'.

" Kagura, how many times must I tell you not to Interrupt. Inuyasha will be here soon. Now Kanna, you will use your mirror to steal Inuyashas soul. Kagura, you will take care of the rest of them." And seeing that Kagome was awake, he added "Ahhhhh..... Kagome. So long you have stood against me. Yet now you are trapped, and your precious Inuyasha cannot save you. For when he tries, they all will be destroyed."

Kagome was confused, but she didn't like this man at all." I don't know who you are, or the rest of you, but I will find out." She said strongly and forcefully. As an afterthought she added" Who is Inuyasha?"

Naraku was very much pleased, but did not let it show on his face. So. He thought. You have lost your memory. Very well then. I suppose this will hurt Inuyasha more than anything we could do, the fool. . His eyes narrowed suspiciously. "Girl. How do I know that you have lost your memory."

Kagome, lost as she was, scented danger, and kept her mouth shut. If nothing else it would infuriate him. And infuriate him it did. He handed her a bow, but no arrow. She looked at it blankly. Narakus smile widened, a nasty curl to his upper lip.

"Back in the bag.", He said softly, while chuckling evilly.

"I can smell her! Shes close!" Inuyasha exclaimed eagerly, as they stepped into the clearing. In the middle of the clearing was a terrible sight. Kagome was in the clearing, sobbing like her heart might break. As for Inuyasha, is heart did break. "Kagome?", Inuyasha asked tentatively. Kagome looked up. She saw Inuyashas face, and felt something stir in her heart, yet her mind did not know who he was. Inuyasha looked in her eyes and saw no recognition.

Kagome sprang to her feet and grabbed a stick. She glared at him fiercely. "Who are you?", She asked icily. His eyes, once so familiar, widened in shock. He backed up, shaking his head slowly, denying what had happened.

"KAGOME!!!", He howled in grief. Kagome narrowed her eyes, and looked confused. Then something clicked in her mind. She hesitated, and then asked the question that tore Inuyashas heart to pieces.

"Did- Did I know you?", She asked hesitantly. Inuyashas eyes filled with tears, and he tore off in the direction he came from. Kagome had no idea what would cause a reaction like that to a demon. She shook her head, dazed, and went in the same direction that strange boy had, poking cautiously through the brush.

Inuyashas heart was broken. he backed against a tree, crying silently. He back was being poked most annoyingly again a small branch. He didn't care. It didn't matter. Nothing mattered anymore. He collapsed to the base of the tree and thought, Oh god. How can I go on living like this. The woman I love is worse than dead. She doesn't remember me.

Inuyasha tore at himself so that maybe physical pain would drown out the emotional pain he was feeling. It didn't, but somehow or other, a rock connected with Inuyashas head, and did not fight the blackness that overwhelmed his vision.
