No one knew about Onigumo save for Kikyo and her younger sister Kaede. But he was long forgotten after the betrayal and so; it gave him an advantage though, only a slight one.
Onigumo, the thief, had ceased to be the day Kikyo would give the jewel to Inuyasha and he would make the wish to solve all of their problems. He had put his plan into action immediately after Kikyo had left from her visit in high spirits. She had no clue that her dreams would be smashed down around her ears.
Once he was sure she was a safe distance away that she wouldn't notice, he began the preparations of his great strategy. He began to chant a spell of power that he remembered from a spell book he had stolen way before the fire, and summoned all of his strength to summon any of the lesser demons in a twenty mile radius. He would make them a deal. A clever deal that would end their pathetic lives and give him another chance at life.
"Feast upon my flesh," and so, they did not knowing that that would be their fatal mistake. He pulled them in with his will and created a new body. Because of such an act he became a hanyou, half demon, half human. Also, the spell on the fire that had burned him to near death left him a reminder: a spider burn on his lower back.
But the demons altered not only his body but his soul, also. The hundreds of demons he enticed split his mind and he became only a sub conscious as a new voice arose. And so, with this new being, he changed his name to fit his new description, a name that would strike fear into the peoples' hearts when they heard it spoken: Naraku. He would make sure all knew of him and his terrible deeds.
And so, Naraku came into existence. He knew everything about Onigumo's love but did not agree with it. Thus, he decided to get rid of the weakness by getting rid of the one he loved. It was nearing night; tomorrow would be the exchange of the jewel between the two lovers. If all went as planned he would be rid of them for good. Though, then he would have to find a way to become a full demon. His heart was set, for some reason, yearning for this to happen. Somewhere in the back of his mind Onigumo whispered words.
That is also what Inuyasha seeks, use the jewel and become full demon, but I have one request. Let me met with Inuyasha, let me take him The whispers said, but even though Naraku did not know what he meant he agreed. He would soon be rid of Onigumo and would be able to wreak havoc on the world. So, he sat in the darkened cave waiting for the sun to rise and let the day begin with Onigumo whispering plans in the back of his mind.
