Hey guys, nice to see you again. This chapter went much more smoothly than the last I am happy to say.

Oh and don't forget to look at Angels in Waiting, my new story.

I know I said I just needed one other chapter before I ended it but I changed my mind, I got more inspiration.

OK forget that. Unlike some other authors I write this story as I go, I don't really have a positive plan on how this is going.

I know how I'm gonna end it just not what will happen until then.
Finally, that's what I wanted to say.

Review responses:
Becca Patty: Bless you, Kagome will be in this chapter and will probably have more parts coming up. I really appreciate you reviewing like you do. Your reviews are enough for two people on their own.

Taeniaea: Again I appreciate your support. You have no clue how much. And of course thank you.

Last time: "You won't trust any of us the same way now. I want you to think about this, you know I was controlled, you know Kagome's being controlled, even Kohaku. That's the way Naraku works. What makes you so sure that Kagura and Kanna aren't the same way?"

With that she walked off into the forest, not far but leaving them with their thoughts.

What I do For You
Just another day

Kagome sat huddled in the corner, where she had been the last couple of days at least. Time wasn't her concern, how she was going to face Inuyasha and the others, however was.

Forgiveness was not one of her favorite hanyou's strong points. Did he hate her for killing Kikyo, did he even know? Damnit why did Naraku have to take her? Her memories were still a little erratic; she couldn't quite sort them all out just yet.

She heard the door slide open but there were no footsteps, but she felt that she was being watched and they were getting closer. It could be only one person. "What is it Kanna?" she asked.

"I don't quite know." Kanna stated, Kagome was a bit surprised, the girl rarely admitted she didn't know what was going on, not that she was ever lost. "What is it, Kagome?"

Kanna then asked surprising Kagome further when she knelt down beside her. Kagome didn't answer, Kanna sighed, "Just remember were all here for you." Kanna began to stand but Kagome held her in place.

"Where are the others?" Kagome asked, "Kagura, Kohaku and Kane are all out. Kagura's doing her own mission, Kohaku is on the assassination that Naraku was sending you own, and Kane is covering for Kiori." Kanna answered lengthily.

It was amazing how well informed this little girl stayed. Kagome realized something, "Covering for her?" Kagome asked, Kanna nodded and made herself comfortable next to the elder,

"Kiori was sent by Kagura to speak to Inuyasha and his friends." She could sense the pain of hearing those words radiating off of the older girl. She sighed, "I wish I could tell you if they were really angry or not, but I won't lie.

But I don't doubt that Kio will find out" Kagome smiled at the girl's attempts to help her. "Hey Kanna, do you have anything to do?" Kagome asked, "No, why?" "Ever played cards."

She slipped a deck of happy bunny playing cards out from a slit in the corner. "No, well then we'll start with go fish."

Eventually Inuyasha got up and went after her. He wasn't the brightest person alive, that he knew, but he knew better than to leave such things unsaid between he and his sister.

He found her at the base of a large tree, about three fourths the size of the goshinbaku. "Fate can never be kind to us can it?" she said as she sensed his approach.

"It would seem that way." he answered. He gave a long sigh, "Kiori I'm sorry." Kio turned to him, "I know." She walked to him "And you are forgiven."

Kiori once again sat by the fire, this time the questions she would be answering would be a bit different. She knew Sango wanted to know about her brother so told her to ask first. "How is he?"

Kiori laughed, (Not to be rude)"That's the best you can ask, Oh well, he's fine. Back to his old self." "Memories?" Sango asked, "Can't say." Sango sighed but accepted the answer for now.

Next was Sesshoumaru, "Who was that demon that helped you cave the pass?" "Oh that was Kane, a white dog demon." "His past?" "I was actually hoping you could help with that."

"If he's a pure blood finding out who he is shouldn't be hard." Kiori nodded and turned to her other brother. Before Inuyasha could speak she answered some of his questions,

"Even with out her memories she still hates killing, for the most part. She knows she wasn't always with Naraku, she hates his guts, and I'm still not totally sure how he controls us.

We just automatically fear finding out." This time Miroku spoke up. "Why would that be?" "I don't know, I was afraid even before I first saw Kagura's first 'punishment'." She said.

"Punishment?" Mai asked. Inuyasha was irritated that he wasn't hearing about Kagome but knew that this was more important. "When we fail we are punished or promised punishment." Kiori explained.

"What was Kagura's?" Inuyasha asked. Kiori knew Kagura was going to kill her for telling them about this particular piece of information, "Naraku has her heart in a jar. With the snap of his finger it's in his hand.

When he squeezes it she can feel it in her own body." She told them grimacing at the memory. "The same is for Kanna." The others were horrified, "How could he do that to a child?" Ayame asked.

"Are you forgetting we're talking about Naraku? He'll do anything to get what he wants." Now Yuki spoke for the first time, "How far to Naraku's palace?" he asked. "About a two day hike." Kiori told him.

"Guys shouldn't we be starting dinner?" Kouga called. Kiori looked up "Oh shit, I have to go now. Sorry guys, Yasha, Sesshy, love ya both. Sayonara for now. Talk to the rest of you later." She was up and getting ready to take off.

"Oh Inuyasha." She motioned him over and pulled him down slightly since he was a little taller than her. "The one kill she didn't regret." This was what he had been wondering about. It was Kikyo, just after she shot me into the canyon. She told him.

Inuyasha was shocked but somehow relieved. My only question is do you hate her for it? Inuyasha looked to her shocked. Kiori, I can't hate her. Not even if I tried Good; that was for her benefit by the way. I gotta go good luck bro.

She turned to the rest of the group, "Oh and promise me you won't hold back to much. Fight as hard as you can, without killing us or doing permanent damage." The others nodded and she left them there.

"What makes her think that we would hold back at all?" Kouga asked. "Where the hell were you?" Ayame asked him as she smacked him. After they had eaten Kouga had asked Ayame to join him in the forest.

He led her along for a while; eventually she started to pull away. "Kouga where are we going?" she asked. "I don't really know." He said. "Kouga you are ridiculas. Your sweet for a while then you rave and rant about Kagome."

It stung but it was true. One of the reasons he had pulled her so far from camp. "And when you come back from Inuyasha and his friends, you won't look me in the eye's then you switch between sweet and a jackass in less than a day."

Again it stung, even more when she tried to jerk away. He couldn't let her leave yet. She needed to know. Then he got an idea (a/n hallelujah). "I'm sorry, I'm an idiot Ayame,I know." he repeated the words he remembered from so long ago.

She stopped struggling."I've screwed up more times than either of us can count." he siad. She turned to face him. Her eyes were filled with tears.

"Please just don't leave me." he begged as she came closer to him. It wasn't the same desperation that was there when he had first said those words, but it was enough for her to beleive.

"Please forgive me Aya-chan." he asked of her. She caught the look in his eyes. "Kouga." she cried out and latched her arms around him. He held her tightly. "I know I don't deserve you Ayame. Not after all that I have done, but..." he paused to look her in eyes.

"After this is over, are you still willin to be my mate?" he asked her. The tears were making their way down her cheeks, he reached up to wipe them away.

"Kouga you idiot." she said, the words would have been discoraging if she hadn't pulled her arms around his neck and kissed him. (a/n I made fluff!)

Kiori met Kagura half-way to Naraku's. The dog demon happily accepted an offer to ride with the wind sorcress. They rode in companionable silence. Neither wanting to talk about what had happened quite yet.

When they arrived they spotted Kane and Kohaku coming out of th infirmary. Kohaku's arm was bandaged, it didn't look to be a serius wound and both girls trusted that Kane had handled.

When they got to the ground, before anyone could greet another they heard voices coming from Kagome's room. She hadn't spoken or moved since her memories came back.

She had been in deep shock. They rushed to the room and flung open the door just in time to see Kagome throwing a a bunch of cards into the air in fustration. They looked to see who sat across from her.

There Kanna was, serene asever but had a smile on her face. "I win." She said simply. Kagome nodded, "Again." she agreed. She picked up all the cards strewn around the room.

She looked up to the others. "Wanna play a game." Kagome turned to Kanna. "No more go fish." Kanna shrugged. "I can beat you at any game." Kagome laughed all knowingly. "We'll see."

The others walked over and sat in a circle. Kagome dealt out all the cards. "The game is 'Bull Shit'"

Well I hope you liked it. I still need a beta read. Reveiws do inspire despite what some of you think.

They make my brain turn on and get idea's.

Well
