"Can you here me?" Naraku whispered menacingly, walking up to the
limp Kagome. She fought desperately to move, her foot, her arm, her finger!
But, no movement was possible. She was trapped in her own body, with little
but her thoughts to keep her company.
Naraku slowly lifted Kagome's head up, staring deep into her soulless eyes; that stared in vain. "Oh, so you can." Suddenly, the disappointment that lingered in his voice, vanished. A slight grin curled upon his lips his dark, red eyes, narrowed. "Beautiful," he whispered. "How do you feel with the knowledge that you will be slightly conscious, when you slaughter Inuyasha with your hands, and your arrows?"
A shiver ran through Kagome, as she cried out in mind. She will not kill him! She will fight with all her mind, heart, and the little soul that remained. She would fight against Naraku mentally, and hopefully when the battle.
"You don't like that idea, do you?" Naraku persisted, obviously enjoying the fact he was killing Kagome inside, with every harsh word. "You think you can stop me from controlling you, don't you?" Kagome didn't understand. It was as if he was reading her thoughts! But how, her eyes were dull and useless, so he couldn't look into her soul. Could he?
Naraku roughly dropped Kagome's head, so now it drooped over her throat. He then, pushed the wall backwards, turning it into a bed. And grabbed a small knife; cutting the ropes that tied around her wrists and ankles. Kagome watched through her ill-sighted eyes, and saw Naraku pull something that looked like a leaf. Placing it over his mouth.
"Rise," he whispered. And, to Kagome's horror, her body was moving! She was rising to Naraku's command! NO! NO! Kagome thought desperately, as her body climbed off the bed. And stood mindlessly in front of Naraku.
"Can you kill Inuyasha?" Naraku asked. His voice full of dark humor. Kagome's started to nod; then her mouth parted open.
"Yes," her voice sounded too much the same! Only dull and quiet. "Master Naraku," her body finished.
Naraku smiled, and began to talk again. Kagome didn't hear it, she didn't want to hear it. She was concentrating on disobeying him! Trying not to slowly walk away from him. Trying to stop her legs from moving in the direction Inuyasha must be looking for her. It was hopeless.
"Oh, is the puppy getting excited?" Kagura taunted, growing Inuyasha's anger. But, suddenly, she grabbed a feather, and blew at it. A puff of smoke blew out, and the next thing Inuyasha noticed, was Kagura floating away on a giant feather. "Too bad." Kagura called. "I really wanted to kill you for myself!
Then, she was gone. Leaving Inuyasha shaking in anger. "What the hell!?! He sputtered in frustration! "That bitch is such a coward!" he yelled. Miroku stepped forward, and placed a hand on Inuyasha's shoulder. Attempting to calm him down.
"Remember, Inuyasha," Miroku said calmly. "Kagura was trying to distract you, you should be searching for Kagome." A pang of guilt hit Inuyasha. Why the hell was he trying to fight, when his Kagome was in danger! She was with Naraku! Something clicked, and he realized he should have followed Kagura!
Without another word, Inuyasha took off into the direction after Kagura. Sniffing the air for Naraku's sent. There was none. He had lost her. "Damn it to hell!" he yelled. How was he to find Kagome? He was sure it was too late.
"Inuyasha?" Sango called, catching up. "You can't possibly be giving up," Inuyasha shook his head. In failure. Kagome had to of been dead. Why the hell would Naraku want her for anything else?
"She's dead, Sango." Inuyasha answered flatly.
"How are you so certain?" Sango protested. "Inuyasha?"
"Look, Sango, How the hell is she still alive? Naraku's had her for a whole day!" Sango shook her head. About to protest, when Inuyasha's ears perked up. His nose sniffed wildly. No, he thought quickly. That can't be Kagome's scent. He sniffed again, and sure enough, it was. Kagome was very near! "Kagome," he whispered.
Jumping to his feet, he took off, following her scent. Running through the trees, and jumping over bushes. His nose never stopped smelling the air, afraid the scent would just vanish. He began to scream out her name, expecting an answer, none came. But, now her smell was overwhelming, he was very close.
Kagome's body walked on, clueless to what Naraku wanted it to do. Kagome still fought with her body, trying to stop it from walking. But, to no avail. Then, to her horror, Inuyasha's voice, very close, called out her name. He would find her standing by the tree Inuyasha had been pinned to for fifty years.
Just as she expecting, Inuyasha burst around the tree. "Kagome!" he yelled, and Kagome heard the happiness in his voice. Did he really care that much? "Are you alright? Did that bastard harm you?" she didn't respond, she couldn't! But, she wanted to warn him, somehow she had to.
Inuyasha stepped toward her, waiting for her to speak. But, her body only stepped toward him, and hugged him. Her head resting on his chest; her arms falling around his waist. "Kagome?" he whispered, and she felt his arms fold around her. Holding her protectively. "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said what I did.' His arms held her tighter. "I was so worried I lost you."
Kagome fought to go against her body, and, for a moment. Succeeded! "Inu-yasha," she actually managed to whisper. "Run."
