DISCLAIMER: I don't own Inuyasha.
Thank you so much all of you. I had just had some family arguments and was a bit depressed about it. Thanks for being so patient with me. I feel much better now and I'll try not to make short chapters anymore.
Chapter Twenty-Three: My Knight in Shining Armor
"When Inuyasha gets here, he's going to rip you apart," Kagome threatened Naraku while struggling with her bonds.
Naraku only sneered. "Oh, so Inuyasha's gonna come and get me? Whatever shall I do? You're not even aware that he's a full human tonight?"
Kagome stopped her struggling for a few seconds. Then it clicked in her head. Inuyasha was a hanyou. Of course he'd have one night where he was most vulnerable. In that case, Kagome didn't want Inuyasha to come and get hurt himself.
'Maybe if I can distract him long enough, the others would be able to come and help me,' Kagome thought desperately. Aloud, "So, does Kikyo know anything about this?"
Naraku was a bit surprised at the mention of his cousin's name. "No, I devised this plan all on my own."
'Great, at least one of them learned a lesson,' Kagome thought. "Just how did you know that I was planning to come to Osaka?"
"I followed you," Naraku answered simply. "You don't think that I was going to let you guys get away with embarrassing me that night now did you?"
Naraku now stood by Kagome and she inwardly cringed at the thought of Naraku touching her. He reached out a hand and caressed her cheek.
"You really are such a lovely girl," Naraku purred. "Inuyasha doesn't deserve you."
"And how would you know what Inuyasha deserves and what he does not deserve?" Kagome spat out angrily. She hated the feeling of Naraku's hand on her face. She was going to have to wash her face at least ten times. He was moving closer to Kagome, and she definitely did not like it one bit. She prayed to the gods above that Inuyasha would hurry and get there.
The others were shocked to hear that Naraku had been there. Sango guessed that Kagome must have dropped her purse and Naraku had abducted her.
"Damn him," Inuyasha cursed. The sun had set and he had headed to the bathroom with Sesshomaru and Miroku to guard the door. He had transformed into a regular human. Inuyasha was beyond pissed. He was worried about Kagome and prayed that she would be fine and untouched. He vowed that he would beat the crap out of Naraku once he found him.
He exited the bathroom and followed the guys back to where the girls were waiting. "Now, where do we start Sesshomaru?" Rin asked immediately.
Sesshomaru was a bit annoyed at the way the others were waiting for him to 'sniff' out Kagome's scent and lead them to her. He wasn't a common dog. He was the son of a rich and powerful businessman!
"Come on then," Sesshomaru growled lowly. The others began to follow him.
"Would ya please hurry up Sesshomaru?" Inuyasha spat out angrily. "We're trying to rescue Kagome, not walk to a party!"
Sesshomaru rolled his eyes at his brother, but he understood his brother's worry. If Rin had been kidnapped, he would not be able to keep his normal cool façade.
Suddenly, Sesshomaru stopped at the exit of the airport. "I lost her scent."
"What the hell do you mean you lost her scent?!" Inuyasha shouted angrily.
"There are other scents that mingle here," Sesshomaru calmly explained. "There is a small trace of the smell, but it's being mixed by the numerous people here."
"How am I going to find her now?" Inuyasha yelled.
"All right," Sango interrupted. "Calm down Inuyasha, we'll think of a way."
"Yeah Inuyasha," Miroku reasoned. "If I know my cousin, she'll probably leave us a clue somewhere. And I'm sure she's giving Naraku hell right now."
Miroku was right. Kagome had finally realized that her legs were not tied. She quickly twisted her body and brought her knee up to Naraku's chin. She had managed to put enough force into it to knock Naraku backward. She managed to roll off the bed and stand up before Naraku could get up.
Naraku stood up and his face was livid. He was surprised and did not think that Kagome would be able to make such a move. He had underestimated her.
Fortunately for Kagome, she and Miroku had taken karate classes together when they were younger. She would be able to use her legs to defend her for awhile. She just hoped that having her hands tied would not knock her off balance too much.
When Naraku stood up from the bed, Kagome was ready for him. She did a back- side kick that knocked him back a few feet and landed him on his back. He was stunned at this girl's actions. He had assumed that she was just a sweet little girl, but she proved to be quite fiery.
At the exit of the airport, Kagome's friends were frantically asking the people around if they had seen a girl get dragged by, well, everyone was frantic but Sesshomaru.
"Where the hell could she be?" Inuyasha yelled frustrated. "How can these people not see someone drag Kagome off? I mean I doubt that she just peacefully strolled along with Naraku!"
Suddenly, a tap on his shoulder interrupted his thoughts. He turned around to come face to face with a girl with bright green-blue eyes and blonde hair with black streaks.
"What do you want?" Inuyasha growled at her. He was in no mood to be bothered and he stared impatiently at the girl.
The girl didn't seem fazed by his anger though. The others had gathered around the girl to see what she wanted. "Hey, are you guys looking for someone?"
"Yeah," Sango answered. "We're looking for another girl that is about as tall as me with the same color hair and wearing a blue tank top with black jeans."
"Yep," Rin added. "She was abducted by this weird dude with black hair and reddish eyes. Have you seen her?"
"Sure, tell her everything," Inuyasha commented sarcastically.
"Well Inuyasha," Miroku reasoned. "She might have seen Kagome."
"I saw her," the girl answered Rin. "She was unconscious though and that guy was carrying her. I thought he was trying to get her to a hospital so I went over and offered him some help. He bumped into me because he was running so fast. I then took him to my dad's hotel. Why, do you guys know him?"
"You took him to a hotel?!" Inuyasha screamed. "Take me to them!"
"She was abducted," Sesshomaru calmly explained when he noticed the girl's confused expression. "Can I ask what your name is?"
"My name is Amber," the girl replied. The others nodded and Sango quickly introduced each of them.
"Oh no, if she's kidnapped then let me help you find her," Amber offered kindly.
Amber quickly raced to her limo. The others raised their eyebrows at this, but made no comment. Inuyasha just hoped that Amber would be able to lead him to Naraku before it was too late. He didn't know why, but he sensed that he could trust this girl.
They arrived at the hotel and Amber quickly led them up the steps. She stopped at the clerk's desk and demanded to see her father. The clerk nodded and quickly rang for Amber's father. They waited for nearly five minutes when Amber's father came out of the elevator.
"Father," Amber breathlessly greeted her father. "There's been an emergency."
Her father glanced at Inuyasha's group, but Amber interrupted quickly, "Dad, we'll have introductions later. Right now, we need to close off all the exits and call the security guards."
Amber's father was puzzled at his daughter's request but quickly gave his orders. Amber then turned to Inuyasha, "What is the name of the kidnapper?"
"Naraku," Inuyasha answered. He was amazed at this girl's ability to work rapidly in a moment of emergency.
Amber then told the clerk to give her the room number of a man registered as Naraku. The clerk found it and told her the number.
"Room 113, thanks," Amber smiled at the clerk. "Ok, follow me now. It's on the fifth floor."
"Amber," her father called her attention. "Do you mind telling me what's going on and what is the emergency?"
"Their friend has been abducted," Amber calmly explained while they waited for the elevator. Inuyasha had wanted to run up the stairs, but he didn't know which direction to go. He decided it was best to just follow Amber because she knew where they were going.
"This man, Naraku, had taken her," Amber continued. "And I didn't know at the time, so I had taken him to our hotel. Luckily too, because now I know where he is and I can help these people."
They finally reached the fifth floor and Amber continued down the hallway. They had reached room 113, but Inuyasha rudely pushed her aside. He didn't even wait for her to get the key out. Instead, he just punched the door and it broke through.
The sight that greeted him did not please him at all. A few minutes before Inuyasha and the others came; Kagome had attempted to do a round house kick to Naraku's side. Naraku had caught her leg and pulled her down. Kagome had fallen on her back but quickly resumed a sitting position. Naraku had stood up quickly and glared down at her. He was about to reach down and slap Kagome, but Inuyasha's hand stopped him.
Kagome closed her eyes, anticipating the blow. When none came, she opened her eyes, to find Inuyasha there. But somehow, he looked different. He had black hair instead and violet eyes. She still recognized her boyfriend though and had never been so happy to see him.
"Inuyasha!" Kagome cried out happily. "You came"
"Are you hurt Kagome?" Inuyasha asked her worriedly.
"Nope, I managed to beat him up until I got pulled down when I did a round house kick," Kagome squealed happily. Sango had rushed over to her friend and untied her.
"Yeah!" Miroku cheered. "That's my girl!"
"You bastard," Inuyasha cursed at Naraku. "You are going to pay for even thinking about taking my Kagome."
With that, Inuyasha jumped on Naraku and proceeded to beat him to a pulp. "I don't need to be a hanyou to beat you up!" Inuyasha shouted angrily. "For touching my girlfriend, I am going to make you pay for it!"
"Should we stop him?" Rin asked Sesshomaru worriedly. "Give him two minutes and then we'll stop," Sesshomaru answered her calmly. "If we don't we'll never hear the end of his complaints. And trust me, when he starts to whine, he'll never stop."
"Ok, timing," Miroku spoke up. Two minutes were finally up when they had to stop Inuyasha. It took both Miroku and Sesshomaru to drag Inuyasha off.
"If you ever come near her again," Inuyasha threatened Naraku. "I'm going to enjoy ripping you, limb by limb."
Naraku leapt up and ran for the door. Amber stuck out her foot and tripped him. Naraku fell flat on his face. Amber then stomped on his back. "And that is for tricking me into thinking that you were a good person!"
She then turned back to the others. They were surprised at the toughness of the girl. Kagome had run to Inuyasha and hugged him. She was so happy to see her.
"Did he touch you in anyway?" Inuyasha asked her nervously.
"No, he only touched my face," Kagome scowled at the thought. "I'm gonna have to wash my face now."
Inuyasha laughed at Kagome. He then turned to Amber, "Thanks for helping us out."
"Oh my gosh," Miroku joked. "Inuyasha is thanking someone. Anyone, quick, we need a tape recorder. This is so going in my diary."
Inuyasha growled at Miroku but the others just laughed at Miroku's impression of a girl. The security guards had already arrested Naraku at Amber's orders.
"Oh no!" Amber interrupted. "I still have to pick up my friends at the airport. Here, my dad will show you which rooms you can stay at. Please stay here for the night and I will return as soon as possible and we can have explanations later."
The others agreed and they followed Amber's father to a different floor.
