Talk about change of subject.

"Alright. Now sleep Kagome. You must be very tired."She nodded and buried her face into his chest taking in his scent. She felt two strong arms wrap around her welcoming her into sleep.

Kagome's POV:

I couldn't move. I couldn't speak. My legs were stiff and my lips sealed. I was floating. Floating in a dark abyss that had no end. All I could do was watch. Couldn't scream, couldn't kick, couldn't touch. Then I felt myself fall. I felt there was no momentum to catch me and thought I would fall through this void until time itself stopped. Maybe this was the end of time. Could I have purged myself into such a sin that I had died? Was this Hell? Then I hit something. Some kind of floor had stopped my fall. I watched in horror, not able to make a sound, as the black floor began to slowly creep up my legs engulfing my body. I closed my eyes tight in fear. Then when I opened my eyes again the darkness had left and chains were holding me to the floor. I watched as small black demons came from the dark floor and approached me. I opened my mouth to scream but I was to terrified to make a noise. Suddenly I saw a light cut through the darkness. A blue light. It devoured the demons in it's mystical light. I squinted my eyes against the light until it subsided. As the light faded I saw two figures. One was approaching me while the other stayed put. I noticed that something was lighting up the room. I looked around for the source then looked down at my own body. I was the source of the light! My skin was glowing softly just enough to make out the two figures. By their shape they were both men and strong ones at that. Where did that heavenly blue light come from? It annihilated the demons and had saved me. But now a new fear began to arise. Who were these men who had come to my aid?

I opened my mouth to speak put the mysterious man placed a clawed finger on my lips. I in took the scent and an image came to the surface of my thoughts. He removed his finger and began to stand up again. He pointed a sword at me and lifted it above his head. As he thrust it down I closed my eyes, bracing myself for the fatal blow. But none came. I opened my eyes and noticed that his intention was not to hurt me but release me from my binds.

"Were is this place, Sesshomaru?" I asked as I stood up to greet him.

"This is the demon world. A void were humans are not welcome. Kagome, we pulled you here because there is something that is urgent." The other man came through the darkness, amber eyes that could peirce, just like Sesshomaru's. "This is my younger brother, InuYasha."

"What is so urgent? This is just a dream right?"Sesshomaru shook his head.

"I wish it were that simple, Kagome." He took my hand in his and looked at me with concerned yet gentle eyes. "Kagome, you have been kidnaped by a demon called Naraku. He impersonated me and was staying at the castle while I was away. After I asked to court you and you turned me down I was angry. I stormed to the eastern lands to seek my younger brother. When I came back you were gone and from what the servants said, you had gone with me. Naraku is the only demon to date with the power of manipulation."I looked at the siblings a little afraid.

"How long have I been gone?"Sesshomaru looked to his brother.

"Two weeks. You were knocked out pretty good. Don't worry. We've been searching all over for your location. He's masked your scent rather well."

"Sesshomaru, please don't leave me with this, Naraku, character." He extended his arms and I went into them without a second thought.

"I will never leave you. The Shikon Jewel, do you have it?"She took the jewel that was hidden underneath her shirt and held it between two fingers. "Just think of what you want to say and I'll hear you. Were connected through the jewel. You must never let him have it."

"One thing Kagome."Kagome and Sesshomaru turned to InuYasha who had kept quiet all this time. "You're a priestess so you must learn to harness your powers. Put your two fingers out and concentrate all of your energy into it." I tried but nothing happened. "Imagine a trigger. Concentrate all of your energy on your finger then pull the trigger in your mind."I tried again. I squinted my eyes concentrating with all of my might. This time something happened. A pink ball of energy came to my fingers. I imagined the trigger. The pink light flew from my hands to the closest thing around, Sesshomaru. He smiled and dodged it easily.

"Now that you can do that there's one other thing we must teach you. You must learn to put up a barrier to protect yourself. Imagine a wall shielding you from danger. Concentrate on braking that wall so a new one can be formed."I smiled at Sesshomaru's statement. I closed my eyes and did as I was told and sure enough a small pink bubble formed around me.

"So these are the powers of a holy miko?"The brothers nodded.

"We must leave you now Kagome. When you wake he will be waiting for you. Once you find out your location tell us as soon as it's safe. We'll rescue you Kagome, I promise."The two brothers evaporated into a soft mist as I went to touch Sesshomaru's cheek one last time. Who knows when we would meet again.

"Sesshomaru."I whimpered. I was all alone.
