I don' t have anything important to say right here so I'll just cut straight to the fic. Any and all criticism is appreciated.

This fiction takes place shortly after he abandons what I can only assume was Hitomi castle not long before they introduced Ayame. Anything that takes place after that obviously doesn't apply to the fic since it wasn't available to me at the time.

What I Do for You
Chapter 1
And so it begins

Kagome stood peeking around a tree, tears streaming down her face.

Inuyasha had left the group earlier saying there was something he had to do, and of course being the girl Kagome is, she followed him.

She had just arrived as Inuyasha bent down to kiss Kikyo. Kagome couldn't stand it. She turned and ran from the sight that had ripped her heart out so many times before. Inuyasha remained oblivious, to absorbed in his lip lock with his former love before him.

Kagome didn't have the slightest idea where she was going. she just wanted- no had to get away. Far, far away. Kagome tripped and fell into a small clearing and at last the last of her resolve ebbed away and she broke into sobs.

"Well, well, if it isn't little Kagome. What a coincidence." A dark and cruel voice spoke in mock surprise.

Kagome's sobs immediately ceased and she stiffened. Slowly, she lifted her head. It was him, the bastard who she'd been trying to kill for two years; the one caused her friends so much pain.

"Naraku" She whispered darkly as she rose slightly to meet the sight of her enemy.

"Crying again I see, I can make you forget all the pain you know. I only want one thing in return."

Kagome was broken emotionally but was well aware that if she helped Naraku by choice or otherwise the pain would be much, much worse. She knew he'd either kill her, use her to get to the others, or worse.

"Stay the hell away from me." Kagome demanded in return while backing away from the evil hanyou. Naraku grew more amused at the girls attempts to stop him, he chuckled "Tut tut, then I suppose we have to do this the hard way hmm."

Naraku started to walk towards her and she screamed as he began to reach towards her.

&&&&&&&&&&&&

Inuyasha had just reached the camp. He gazed around the camp at Sango, Miroku, Shippou, and Kirara. "Hey where's Kago" The scream cut through the air like a knife.

Inuyasha's eyes widened as he shouted "Kagome." He sprinted in the direction they had all heard the scream, he ran into the forest and quickly found her scent and followed it. Sango, Miroku, and Shippou all climbed onto Kirara and followed their hanyou friend.

They followed her scent into a clearing where they found Naraku standing over Kagome's unconscious form. Naraku looked towards them with a smirk, he lifted his fist and let go causing violet miasma to pour from his palm. After a few seconds the miasma lifted and Naraku was gone, so was Kagome.

Inuyasha inhaled deeply hoping to find a trace of Naraku, he smelt nothing except Kagome, her fear and her tears.

He couldn't sense, hear, or scent anything else in the forest. He must have covered his scent the distressed hanyou thought. Inuyasha's shoulders slumped as he hung his head in dispair. "Ther're gone." he whispered.

Sango turned to Miroku as if asking if it was really true. Shippou glared at Inuyasha "Is that all your going to do? Just sit there and mope? Kagome would have gone to help you in a second." Inuyasha straightened as he gathered his bearings. He turned and walked towards camp.

Miroku looked up "Inuyasha where are you going?"

"We'll head out in the morning."

"Where?" Sango asked, trying to hold herself together, her voice was a cross between depression and anger.

"To kill Naraku and save Kagome." He said darkly.

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

"Kiori" a deep voice rang through the gigantic hall.

"Yes Master Naraku" Kiori replied in a monotone voice.

"You'll handle Kagome."

"As you wish Master."

Kiori bowed she slowly turned and exited the room, sliding the shoji screen in place behind her. She stood outside the shoji screen and shuddered but left to the room where Kagome was being held.

Naraku chuckled "Beware Inuyasha. Your end is coming soon."
