Hiya, faithful readers!!! Again, thanks for reading my ficcy! And I know that I haven't been accepting anonymous reviews, and I'm terribly sorry. I didn't notice it, but I changed it!!! YAY for the lazy peeps. (Sometimes I'm like that) So anyhoo, please read and enjoy!!! R&R!! Domo Arigato  (BOLD is flashback from last chappie)

"Yes?" Sango asked. Of course, she already knew the answer. It was really fun playing with Inu Yasha's head.

Inu Yasha looked at Kikyo and straightened up.

"I went into the forest chasing Kagome and—"

"Kaede-San! The village is under attack!!!" a villager burst through the door, almost ripping the flap off. (again) Everybody tensed.

"Tell all of the villagers to get inside their huts!" Kaede ordered.

"Yes, Kaede-San!" the man bowed.

"We just had a battle!!!" Shippo cried.

"Yeah, well deal with it!" Inu Yasha spat. He was frustrated with his emotions he worked so hard to hide. He was frustrated with Naraku and everything else messing up his life.

Everybody grabbed their cherished weapons and hurried outside. Kii and Kirara disappeared under the commands of their masters. They went to the back of the demon horde, using the pincher tactic. Numerous demons tore up the huts, some grabbing stray women and children. Inu Yasha clenched his teeth. Chaos was everywhere. Villagers dashed around, trying to get inside, as Kaede commanded.

"IRON REAVER SOUL STEALER!!!" he shouted while slashing. Many demons screeched and turned their attention to the group of determined fighters.

"Get ready for the fight!" Hikari breathed, counting the demons. Hakisuma glanced behind her where Kagome was tearing out of the hut. She had her bow and arrows in her hand. Kikyo followed, taking her time.

Hakisuma turned her gaze back to the demons wreaking havoc.

She and Hikari glanced at each other and sheathed their blades. With a yell, they lunged forward and attacked with their combo. This was extremely good practice. For the past few days they had been beating up worthless and defenseless creatures. This was much better. Way better.

Sango and Inu Yasha also lunged forward. Miroku, however, stood his ground. He noticed the absence of Naraku's wasps. Was this Naraku's trick, and that he had invented another deadly demon, or was it just a whole pack of demons trying to have fun? He debated in his head while the others fought.

Hakisuma and Hikari finished off the tenth demon, Hikari kicking the remains away. They each used an attack, smashing the demon completely. They noticed a shortage of demon use. They had killed off all the demons in their area, and Hakisuma didn't even transform yet. She looked down at her knuckles. They were bleeding slightly from the tough exoskeletons some demons had. She transformed, licking off the blood. Hikari also transformed. She had gauntlets already, so her fists were fine.

Inu Yasha pulled his Tetsaiga out of a long demon's body. This is the millionth time a horde of demons attacked at once, and he was getting irritated. Time to use his Backlash Wave. He jumped backward after punching a demon in the face. He landed lightly next to Sango, knocking down a demon as he went.

"Get towards Kaede's hut!" he grunted, fighting off another beast. Sango nodded before finishing off the demon Inu Yasha started on. She whistled to Kirara and Kii, who were having a little bit of fun. The perked their ears and soared over to Sango, who led them to Kaede's hut.

Kaede sighed as Sango approached. "I suppose this is time to be gathering more herbs?" Kaede asked herself. "Aye, that would be nice." She nodded and headed on a short and safe route to her herb patch a little into the forest, with Shippo on her shoulders.

Sango waved madly at Kagome, Hikari, and Hakisuma. They ran over, panting slightly, and took place between Sango and Miroku.

"Inu Yasha's going to use his Backlash Wave," Sango explained without hesitation. All eyes turned onto Inu Yasha.

'Inu Yasha has another powerful attack other than the Wind Scar?' Hikari questioned herself.

They all watched Inu Yasha get ready. He seemed to be concentrating hard. Then, suddenly, he swung his massive blade. "Backlash!!!" he roared over the screeching of the demons.

Hakisuma and Hikari watched as the demons disintegrated before their eyes. Inu Yasha sheathed his Tetsusaiga and strode over to the group.

Hikari rolled her eyes. "Now you decide to use that attack." She complained. "You could've used it all the times where we were fighting those big hordes."

Inu Yasha smirked. "How little you pipsqueaks know. This horde was stronger, thus providing more demonic power." He paused. "Where's Kagome?!" he suddenly demanded. They all looked around. Kagome was gone.

"Kagome!!!" Hakisuma and Shippo called out in unison. Kii and Kirara bounded towards them. Sango glanced questionly at Kirara. She appeared to have something in her jaws. It was Kagome's red bandana. Kii tugged at Hakisuma's sleeve and made a noise in the back of her throat. Inu Yasha turned and looked at the red cloth in horror.

"They've taken her!!!" he pieced together. "They took Kagome!!!" he raged. Inu Yasha whirled around and jumped into a tree for a better view.

Hakisuma bent down towards Kii and Kirara. Kii nudged Hakisuma's hand to the south-east. Hikari started walking in the direction. Hakisuma opened her arms, Kii jumped in, and they both followed Hikari.

Hikari paused to sniff the air. She frowned. "Something is not righ-" A mammoth demon claw came out of nowhere and swiped Miroku and Sango off their feet into a hut. They collided with it and slid to the ground, limp and unconscious. Kirara jumped away in time, attempting to grab Sango and Miroku's sleeves, but only accomplished in ripping the hems off.

"What's the matter, humans? And half-demos?" a giant demon growled viciously. "Weren't you all just so confident?" he mocked.

"Why you—" Inu Yasha growled. He jumped out of the tree and landed, Tetsusaiga at the ready. Hikari turned, as did Hakisuma. They rolled their eyes and looked at Inu Yasha.

"Go find Kagome!!!" he yelled, keeping his glare on the beast.

"There's no use…I have her" the demon smirked. Indeed, in his hand, clutched tightly, was Kagome. She appeared to be unconscious.

"Kagome!!!" Inu Yasha shouted. Kagome opened her eyes half-way. She attempted to say something, but the demon clenched his fist harder on Kagome, causing her to gasp and almost pass out.

Inu Yasha's eyes were hidden underneath his silver bangs.

"GIVE…HER BACK!!!" he demanded, clenching hand on his Tetsusaiga.

Hikari frowned, thinking hard.

"Where's Shippo?" Hakisuma looked around franticly. She took a step in Kaede's hut's direction.

"He went with Lady Kaede into the forest to gather herbs," Hikari replied under her breath. Hikari's eyes scanned the demons massive body. 'There must be a weakness somewhere!!!' she contemplated.

Hakisuma sighed with relief. She turned to Kagome, looking worried. The giant demon snarled and his voice dripped with pure venom.

"You want this wench? TAKE HER!!!" he threw Kagome at Inu Yasha. He braced himself and caught Kagome, who passed out.

The demon ran over and clubbed Hikari and Hakisuma on the head. They had no time to react; his speed was swift, and his strength was unmatchable. Their heads collided, and they too, passed out. The demon caught their falling bodies as they fell.

"NO YOU DON'T!!!" Inu Yasha roared. He was on the verge of transforming into full-blooded demon.

Kii growled and transformed. With a roar, she lunged herself at the demon. The demon turned, snickered, and swiped Kii away like a rag doll. Then, carrying Hakisuma and Hikari, he disappeared.

"Hakisuma! Hikari!" Kaede shouted after them. Inu Yasha was trembling. His eyes turned red, then white.

Kagome opened her eyes a little. "Inu Yasha…" she drifted off into unconsciousness again. Inu Yasha turned his gaze to Kagome and his now gold eyes softened. He hugged her close, then got up and walked into Kaede's hut, carrying Kagome. He came back out after a moment, and slung Miroku and Sango over his shoulders. Kirara sauntered in after him. Kii mewed helplessly at the sky. Kaede's face was set grim, and she too, strode into the hut, for there was much work to do.

::::….::::…..:::::

Meanwhile, the demon clutched the two teenage girls tightly, almost squeezing the breath out of them as he flew through a purple/black aura. He passed Naraku's barrier and landed with a dull boom.

"I see you have accomplished your task…" Naraku's sinister shadow outlined the straw door. He stepped out and grinned. "Kagura, Kanna, take them from here," he ordered softly. The appeared beside them and Kanna willingly, and Kagura unwillingly, strode over and took the two unconscious females.

"Master…" the demon bowed. Naraku smirked and held out his hand. It stretched out and grabbed the demon. Naraku then withdrew his arm and the demon into his body. When the sickening sight was over, he turned to his two incarnations. "Take them to the cellar and lock them up." He drawled, smirking yet again.

The two sisters set out for the dungeons.

"Now…my plan," Naraku murmured.
