Chapter two: The Kidnapping and the Pact

Disclaimer: Still don't own it... T-T

Even later that night, Kagome tried to convince Inuyasha that the jewel shards could wait a day or two, but it was going rather unsuccessfully.

"Hey Inuyasha... what if we stopped searching for jewel shards for a day or two? Would that be okay?"

"No, you can't go back to your time and "Study," whatever that is." Inuyasha growled.

"But I'm not the only one to leave; Sango wants to go back to her village for a while."

A loud silence overcame the group. "Is this true, Sango?" Inuyasha said in his don't-agree-with-her-unless-you-want-to-die voice.

"Er... yea..." Sango had melted in his ice cold glare.

"Darn, why me?!! Why do I have to be stuck with a bunch of sick humans?!! Fine, you

can go, but you have to be back in two days. Got that!?" He said angrily.

"Yea," Kagome said. "But one more thing. Sit."

"Ow!"

Early in the morning, Sango got up before Inuyasha did (Which was pretty early; talk about the early bird). She packed up her stuff, but before she could leave, Miroku stopped her. Sango was surprised.

"Houshi-sama? What are you doing up?" She asked.

"Oh nothing. Just wanted to bid you farewell, that's all."

"Houshi-sama, you make it sound like I was leaving forever. It's only two days."

"Yes, well... I have an ominous feeling..." He said seriously.

"Oh, you and your feelings..." Sango said before going off.

Later in the morning Kagome had woken up.

"You-are-not-going!" Inuyasha shouted.

"Yes I am!" Kagome said.

"Just because Sango snuck off sometime in the night doesn't mean you can!"

"But, Inuyasha, it's day."

"Don't you get smart with me you little wench!"

"SIT!" And with that, Kagome left.

Miroku and Shippou sat through the whole thing, quiet as mice.

"When do you think she's going to come back?" Shippou asked.

"I don't know, but she looked really angry..." Miroku replied.

Sango was walking towards her village when she saw it. The horrible, yet wonderful

surprise. They were in bad condition, yes, but they were there. But how could it be? What-or who- made them alive again?

"M-Mom? Dad?" She whispered.

They blinked their eyes and woke up. As they stood, she felt suspicion towards them.

They were there, but not there. How could they be? Unless...!

"Naraku!" She pulled out hiraikotsu from her back and held it tight. "What did you do? My family-you've stolen all of them. My brother, my mom, my dad... What are you going to do now?"

"Ha ha ha ha... dear Sango. I will not harm them, but you have to do as I say...." Naraku said quietly in his venom voice.

"W-What?!... What do you want me to... do?"

"Simple... for your family here, I want you to destroy your group. Your friends. The monk.

The half-breed. The Miko. The Kitsune, everyone."

"Naraku... I despise you! I can't do that!" She wouldn't. No... Could she?

"Ha ha ha... you have to... it's either your friends or your family... Choose, and then do as

you please. But you do know the consequences... Farewell, Sango..." And a miasma came up and took away her precious family.

"No..."
