I'm sooo happy right now!!! I have TWO people who I don't really know review me!!! (The rest I know; either we're tomodachi's or we talk on AIM.) Pathetic, huh? WHO CARES?! I'M HAPPY!!!!!!! XD Enjoy!!!

Hikari woke up with a throbbing head and sore wrists. "Ugh…where am I?" she muttered and looked around. It was all dark and it stank of a familiar scent…

Her eyes adjusted to the dark extremely quickly. She looked up and growled. She and Hakisuma's hands were chained together and they were hanging from the wall, making them in uncomfortable positions, and their feet were about a foot off the ground.

"Wake up!!!" she nudged Hakisuma's legs. Hakisuma swayed and her chains clinked softly. The noise was muffled by the thick air of the cellar.

"Mmm?" Hakisuma murmured as she woke. Hakisuma opened her eyes all the way, and she gasped. "Where are we?" she asked.

"Do you remember that demon clubbing our heads together?" Hikari growled. "Well, I think he took us here… and I think that this is Naraku's castle. I've been here before." She said lowly, looking around again. Dank water was dripping out of stones lining the ground. The wood was moist and looked decayed and dark. The place had a sweet, rotten woody smell to it, almost overpowered by Naraku's hideous stench.

Hakisuma was silent. Hikari thought she fell asleep again. "Hakisuma?" she asked into the darkness.

"Hmmm?" Hakisuma replied. "I was thinking, how are we going to escape?"

It was Hikari's turn to be silent. 'Yeah. Hmmm…maybe we could try to break these clasps holding our hands…or maybe the chains…"

"We could always try to break these chains," Hikari suggested.

"Good idea," Hakisuma replied. They immediately transformed and used their stomach muscles to pull themselves up and used their teeth to try to break open the hatches. They tried for five minutes with no avail. Exhausted, they gave up and tried to think of another way.

They remained suspended in the air in uncomfortable silence. The lack of oxygen in the room was affecting their already tired bodies. Hikari changed back to her normal form, trying not to use up the air that was left. Hakisuma followed suit; her eyes were beginning to droop. Hikari's head had rolled to one side and stayed there.

"Hikari?" Hakisuma whispered, "You awake?"

"Mhmm, someone is coming" Hikari snarled slightly. The cellar door opened with a creak. "Naraku!" Hikari snapped at the scent's direction.

"That is no way to greet your host you discourteous puppy." Naraku's smooth voice cut through the thickness of the air. Kagura followed behind him with an irritated look on her face.

'So this is Naraku that bastard.' Hakisuma thought furiously. "Why did you take us?" Hakisuma demanded, "What do you hope to gain?" The two glared down at Naraku's shadowed form.

Naraku chuckled calmly, "Why, nothing, just all the remaining shards of the Shikon jewel and Inu Yasha's life."

Hikari and Hakisuma glared daggers at Naraku. Their eyes reflected their hate and disgust towards him. "Now, now, that's now very nice." His ruby eyes flashed as he swung his arm out. In one swift motion, waves of energy smashed into the two girls. The impact knocked then unconscious before they could cry out. Their bodies went limp like a pair of rag dolls. "Bring them to my quarters." He commanded to Kagura and then disappeared into the shadows.

Naraku and Kanna were waiting in a strange room for Kagura. There were numerous sized jars that filled the room. Kagura appeared at the opened door with the two teenagers. "Good, Kanna please take it from here."

Kanna began to approach the two figures when Hikari's form began to twitch. There were loud snapping noises as Hikari's bones started to rearrange. She shifted into a full-formed wolf, no human qualities; however, she remained unconscious.

Kanna took no notice to the change and held out her mirror. The mirror glowed a soft white, then the surface began to swirl. Naraku watched in satisfaction as glowing orbs surfaced from Hikari and Hakisuma's unconscious forms and floated silently towards the mirror.

Without a sound, the souls entered the mirror Kanna held in her hands. Naraku then motioned to the large container near him. The mirror then released the pair of souls into the jar. There was a bright flash of light from the container.

A few moments passed; then the opening of the jar glowed ominously. A figure began to rise from the contents.

Out of the jar emerged a girl…She had soulless eyes that showed no sign of emotions. The one on the left was red, and the one on the right was gold. She had heavy fighting robes colored pale silver. Draped over her eyes and back was long ebony hair with silvery-white highlights and bangs that stuck up like Hikari's. It glanced up suddenly and smirked, revealing its long canines that curved, nearly touching her chin. On either hand she had symbols engraved into the skin. One the right a crescent moon, and the left a flame.

"At your orders, Naraku-dono…" her cold voice purred. It sounded as if Hakisuma and Hikari's voices were overlapped. Naraku nodded. Now the battle would soon begin.

(((…::..the Inu Group…::…)))

Inu Yasha sat out on a tree limb, looking out into the horizon. 'I can't believe it…one moment they were right here with us. Now…' Inu Yasha punched the tree angrily.

"They're gone!!!" he cursed.

Sango and Miroku had awoken shortly after the two girls had been kidnapped. The two sat nearby throwing glances up at Inu Yasha now and then whenever he would shout out.

"He won't admit that he is worried about those two," Miroku murmured to Sango under his breath.

Sango nodded, "We've been with them for quite some time now, it's hard not having them around."

Shippo sat in Kagome's lap while sniffling. He missed Hakisuma.

"STUPID NARAKU!!!" Shippo yelled suddenly. Everyone was taken aback.

"Shippo…" Kagome murmured. She soothed Shippo's hair as he buried his face into her clothes. Inu Yasha went back to sulking and Miroku and Sango back to talking quietly.

Inu Yasha stiffened. He sat up straight and sniffed the air. 'Ugh…its KOGA,' he thought. Sure enough, a pesky wolf demon flew into view.

Everyone turned to look at him. Inu Yasha closed his eyes and settled back down.

"Koga!" Kagome called, surprised by his sudden visit. Koga stopped in front of the tree Inu Yasha was in.

He waved at Kagome then turned back to Inu Yasha.

"Hey, mutt-face!!!" Koga called.

"What, you lousy flea-bitten mongrel?!" Inu Yasha replied without looking down.

"Naraku's scent is in the air," Koga smirked. Inu Yasha's eyes snapped open and he jumped down. "I knew you would do that," Koga sneered.

"And why did you come? I could've smelled it out myself!!" Inu Yasha fumed.

"Yes, my dear puppy, but you see, the half moon affects wolves more than mutts, so I have a better nose than you!" Koga mocked while walking to Kagome and holding her hands.

The rest of the group stared at them like a ping-pong match.

"SO?!" Inu Yasha said, obviously trying to keep his temper in check.

"So I also smell that other wolf demon and that fox demons' blood," Koga replied with a toss of his black hair.

Inu Yasha sniffed the air. His eyes sparked.

"And why would you tell us this?" Inu Yasha demanded, with evil triangle eyes and enveloped in a burst of fire.

"Oh, anything to help my dear Kagome," Koga sighed, kissing her hand. Inu Yasha's eyebrows twitched and the fire surrounding his scorched everything in his way. Sango and Miroku leapt away in time.

Kagome blushed and glanced nervously at Inu Yasha. He stomped towards Koga and grabbed him by the scruff.

"GO AWAY TO YOUR PACK OF LAZY, TICK COVERED WIMPY WOLVES!!!" he yelled while booting Koga in the air like a soccer ball.

Everybody's eyes popped out. Kagome started laughing all of a sudden. Everyone's attention turned to her.

"Kagome?" Inu Yasha asked slowly as his fire died down.

Tears were streaming down her face. Apparently, she was laughing too hard to notice anything or reply anybody.

BOOM!!! Rocks flew everywhere. (That shut Kagome up)

A figure loomed in the dust. It grew clearer and clearer. Everybody gasped.

A demon, or person, or whatever it was—it looked like Hikari and Hakisuma combined! Her eyes were red and gold—and they were blank like Kohaku's. Fangs that grew to her chin were white and glistening. Her hair was black with white/silver highlights and white bangs that looked remarkably like Hikari's. Her bangs shadowed her bowed head. The demon thing wore a thick fighting kimono as its attire. Long, white claws protruded from the sleeves.

"Hikari? Hakisuma?" The group gasped. Shippo stared at the demon in shock and horror. What happened to the Hikari and Hakisuma he knew?

"You are only half-right…" a low voice smirked. Naraku's baboon figure appeared beside the girl demon. "Her name is Sumi-kari," he drawled. I made her myself, but I couldn't have done it without these two's souls…" he snapped his fingers.

Hikari and Hakisuma appeared in mid-air. Hakisuma's wrists locked to either side with chains. The metal links were attached to an invisible surface. Her body resembled a 'Y'. Hikari, though, was unrecognizable.

Well, at least, that was who everybody assumed she was. Hikari was in wolf form, and there was a large, thick metal collar around her neck. Her paws were also chained up together.

Both of the teens were conscious, though they didn't show any emotion. Their expressions were blank. Both of their eyes were dim and half-closed.

"See my invention?" Naraku asked. "Do you like it?"

Inu Yasha growled and his body shook. "STOP PLAYING GAMES!!!" he shouted. He swung his Tetsusaiga and slashed at Sumi-Kari.

The demon took the hit without flinching or moving. She stood completely still. They, she glared at Inu Yasha, smirking.

Hakisuma screamed and Hikari yelped. Inu Yasha's eyes glazed over in horror at what he had done.

Kagome, Miroku, Sango, Kii, Kirara, and Shippo cried out. Kii transformed, growling.

Where Inu Yasha had cut Sumi-Kari, the gash appeared on Hikari and Hakisuma's bodies. Blood ran down their bodies and dripped onto the ground.

Naraku grinned evilly. "You see? You can't hurt them. You kill my incarnation, you kill your friends," he laughed. Kii was covered in rage.

She roared and lunged forward and bit Naraku's chest, right where his heart was. Naraku's form collapsed to the ground, but he was still laughing. His body crumbled to ash and a puppet appeared. Naraku's laughter died into the wind.

Inu Yasha's eyes were covered. Everyone was stuck. Miroku couldn't use his Wind Tunnel; that would take down the girls' souls; they don't need that to happen. Inu Yasha or Sango couldn't use their weapons. Hakisuma and Hikari would be hurt. Kagome wasn't much of a fighter; only her purification arrows were her weapons, but they weren't sure if that would work. They would probably just end up wounding the two.

Shippo's fists were shaking. He leapt forward.

"Shippo, NO!!" Inu Yasha yelled.

Shippo took no heed. "FOX FIRE!!!" he shouted. The incarnation burned without screaming, but her face was twisted in pain. Everybody looked at the two captives. They weren't hurt at all.

"I get it!!!" Miroku gasped. "Hakisuma's fox powers must be protecting them both!!! Shippo, keep on attacking!!!"

Shippo nodded with a determined look on his little face. "FOX FIRE!!!" he shouted.

"WHAT?!" Inu Yasha cried.

"You think that it would work a second time?" the demon jeered. Sumi-kari had formed a shield around herself. The barrier vanished.

"Kagome, shoot Sumi-kari with your arrows!!!" Miroku called.

"WHAT?! Are you crazy?! You'll hurt them!" Inu Yasha demanded. Sango nodded in agreement.

"Trust me, you guys!" Miroku replied.

Kagome nodded nervously and notched an arrow to her bow. Twang! The arrow hit Sumi-kari in the chest. Instead of wounding the two, the arrow glowed and sank into Sumi-kari's body. Sumi-kari clutched at her wound.

"No! Why you—" two more arrows flew through the air. They thudded against her body. Miroku's eyes sparked.

"Shippo! Kagome! Combine your attacks!!" he yelled over Sumi-kari's screaming. "Her barriers won't work!"

They nodded and attacked at the same time. Shippo's Fox Fire and Kagome's purification arrow combined and soared towards the demon. It pounded against her body and all three demons were hit. Sumi-kari screamed, and Hikari and Hakisuma yelped. Both Hakisuma and Hikari fell limp. Sumi-kari dropped to one knee and her body shook with effort.

"NO! I will destroy you!!! I cannot—" Sumi-kari stood up and clasped her hands together. The markings on her hands glowed and pulsed. Inu Yasha, Shippo, Kii, and Kirara felt the surge of demonic power.

BOOM! The surge blasted the path off and headed towards the transfixed group.

"Kagome!" Inu Yasha dived and scooped Kagome out of the way.

"Kagome! Shippo! Keep on attacking!!! If we don't destroy her fast, Hikari and Hakisuma will perish!!!" Miroku shouted.

Sure enough, as they looked at the two, they saw drastic changes.

Hikari was still in wolf form, but the night was dawning. Her once silvery-white fur was dull. Blood matted big clumps of it and more was pouring out.

Hakisuma also was like that. Her clothes were torn and blood was seeping through. Her now dull black hair was plastered to her forehead. They both were suffering. Hakisuma opened one expressionless eye.

"The heart…" she strained to mutter. Inu Yasha's delicate hearing picked up her voice.

"The heart! Aim for the heart!!!" he shouted.

Kagome and a shaken Shippo nodded nervously. They were all afraid that they would kill Hikari and Hakisuma on accident.

Kagome readied her arrow notched to the bow. Shippo clenched his hands together.

"Ready?" Kagome asked Shippo. Shippo nodded determinedly.

"HA! You can't destroy me! Only Naraku and I know how! And before you destroy me, I will make sure that those two pitiful beings go down with me!" Sumi-kari growled.

Sumi-kari got ready again. She clasped her hands together and began chanting with her eyes closed.

"NOW!" Miroku yelled.

Kagome released her arrow the same time Shippo blasted his Fox Fire. The Fox Fire swirled around the arrow and thudded against Sumi-kari's chest, on the right side.

Sumi-kari clenched her teeth together hard and concentrated harder. A black and red glow emitted from her. Even though she was obviously weakening, she wasn't going to give up with out a fight. The aura blasted wildly and formed a creature made entirely of demonic power. It darted towards Sango and Miroku, who stood ready.

"RAAAAAAAAAAWR!!!" Kii jumped in front of the two humans. She got hit with the blast.

"NOOOOOooooooo!!!" Hakisuma screamed. Her eyes cleared and became red. Her fist clenched together and broke from the chains. Filled with anger, she also wrenched Hikari's chains off. The chains turned to ash and blew away.

"NO!" Sumi-kari roared. A small particle of Hakisuma's soul drifted out of Sumi-kari and went back into Hakisuma's body.

Hikari fell to the ground with a thud. She was still unconscious.

Hakisuma lunged off and sprinted towards the black and red force that was still holding where Kii was still holding. She jumped into the air and whistled an ear-piercing shriek. Kii, protected by her burst of fire, twitched her ears and jumped out, grabbing Miroku and Sango with her.

Landing gently on top of Kii's soft fur, she passed out.

"RAGH!!!" Sumi-kari cried out. She lunged forward and began to attack Inu Yasha with her claws. They swiped and dodged, but no one was winning.

"Backlash!" Inu Yasha roared. He chuckled lowly as her saw that Sumi-kari held a barrier. "Should've known you would do that," he spat. "You coward."

Sumi-kari laughed. She knelt to the ground and panted, her differently colored eyes widening.

Miroku nodded at Shippo and Kagome again. Kii landed with Kirara next to her, helping carry the three passengers.

They bared their teeth and let their attacks soar together. It headed straight towards Sumi-kari. Everyone held their breath, waiting to see what was going to happen.
