Chapter 9

I wonder what seemed forever to try and figure out what the voice meant by that question. I couldn't find an answer that could have been correct.

"Who are you and what do you want with me?" I shouted hoping for an answer to echo back at me.

It stopped moving as I felt their eyes look at me from behind. It was burning me and it felt like a fire but of pure evil. I couldn't stand the feeling even though it was just looking at me however the burning feeling seemed to be my imaginational thoughts gone wild.

"Tell me who you are already?" I shouted again with more emphasis into it.

"Isn't it funny how easily it was to defeat those two?" it's tone of voice being eerie and pleasing about it.

I felt like I was thrown into dark where I was alone and sad because I knew what it meant. This thing killed the kidnapper and Inuyasha and now it has me. As rain fell down the windows, my tears did the same on my cheeks. I was powerless and instantly broken by this small yet horrifying statement.

I didn't know how I felt but I felt that it needed to be destroyed and fast. The hidden darkness and anger started to build inside and I couldn't stop it for one second.

I didn't know what he meant by that but I felt that he was right but the anger still didn't go. I lifted myself up again to find out whom this thing was that I have to join again. And there he was standing in the little light from the window.

"I'm Naraku and its now time, Claire."

Offering his hand to me so that I would join him but… join? I took a moment to look at him and think this through. Me? Join him after he has killed my one love for my lifetime. I couldn't allow him to get away with this crime.

"Of course… it is time for me to join you for I have fulfilled my task."

It was all become clear to me now… I was supposed to help Naraku to destroy Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru. I guess that by joining him I have become a part of him by spirit. I took his hand and letting it help me remove myself from the ground. I smiled a little at him.

"I guess my purpose is done but there is something else I need to do…"
