Chapter 9 The Rescue
Maeko watched all the events of her change in a dreamy state. It felt like she was watching a dream and had no control what so ever. Then, She was filled with complete hatred towards Naraku. She couldn't believe she let him do this to her. She struggled but to no avail. She desperately cried out but it only echoed in her mind, her prison. She saw Naraku take her to his castle and sat down. "My Queen of Darkness it's time to rule." He said. She heard a deeper version of her voice. "It's time for our rule my Lord." She replied.
Sesshoumaru was seething with anger. He would get Naraku. He took what was his; he vowed it. He stalked off back to his chambers. He was soon met up with Kagome.
"What happened Sesshoumaru." She asked.
"Maeko's been kidnapped." He merely said.
"What!!! We need to go get her." She exclaimed.
"Don't be foolish wench. She's taken by Naraku." He said.
Kagome's eyes widen in surprise. "What do we do?" she questioned.
"We prepare for the battle." He said and left her standing alone. Inuyasha came up to her.
"What's wrong Kagome?" he asked.
"Maeko's been kidnapped." She said meekly.
"WHAT!!" yelled Inuyasha.
"Shut up Inuyasha. " Sesshoumaru said. "By midnight we're going to Naraku's castle to get her back." He looked towards the horizon. "We need to prepare for it." He left suddenly. They all headed back to their planning in the dining hall.
"Well I won't be of much use." Said Miroku. "If Naraku has his bugs there. All I got is my staff." They nodded remembering the last time they encountered them.
"I say we charge in get her out and be outta there before he knows it." Said Inuyasha.
"Don't be naïve." Said Sango. "There'll be Kagura there and Kanna." She said. She looked over at Sesshoumaru who was quiet the whole time. "What you think Sesshoumaru?" she asked.
A sweeping shadow fell upon his heart. He felt this ache and anguish in him he never felt before. Could it be that he might love Maeko. That's absurd, he thought. He was Lord of the Western Lands he doesn't have time to love.
"Sesshoumaru?" questioned Sango. Then he came out of his deep inner thoughts.
"What." He replied. "I was just asking what your thoughts were about the rescue of Maeko." She said. He gazed at her for a moment.
"It'll be tough but I can handle it." He said. "I say Sango and Miroku take on Kagura." Said Kagome. "Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru will keep Naraku busy while I go for Maeko." She finished. They all shrugged and then agreed to this plan knowing it won't turn out as expected. Sesshoumaru was quiet, should he tell them about Maeko transformation. No it was his concern. He would deal with it.
"Can we trust Sesshoumaru." Questioned Inuyasha. He glared at him from across the long table. "Last time Sesshoumaru teamed up with Naraku." He stated.
"Don't be stupid Inuyasha, Maeko is kidnapped then there's Rin." Kagome countered.
"Sesshoumaru doesn't care about her." He argued.
"I think he does." Argued Kagome. "What do you know. You're in love with a dead miko." muttered Kagome.
"I heard that!" Yelled Inuyasha.
They started arguing about it then stopped. Sesshoumaru was gone. He just got up and left the room. They all dispersed from the table to ponder about the coming midnight.
