It was dark outside and the only light they had was from the moon and stars. KoKo jumped up, ignoring her wounds, and got herself ready to if she had to protect herself from Naraku. "Are you sure that you smelt Naraku, KoKo?" Inuyasha questioned. "I'm positive." KoKo stared out into the darkness. "I do know, I haven't even got a whiff of Naraku yet," Inuyasha said, not believing KoKo. "Wait… I smell him." Inuyasha drew out his sword, also getting ready to attack. Kilala jumped up and transformed into her tiger sized two tailed. Her razor sharp fangs hung out low from her mouth and fire that could not hurt her surrounded her paws as she got ready to fly up high with Sango, to look for Naraku. "Come, Kilala!" Sango shouted. As Kilala started to run towards her owner and best friend, one of Naraku's poisonous insects flew in front of Sango. "Sango!" Miroku ran towards the Sango as the insects that were surrounding Sango came after Miroku. Miroku stopped quickly, opened up his wind tunnel, and yelled to Sango, "Get out of the way!" "You can't! The toxin will spread through your body, and you will dye!" Sango shouted in a frightened voice. Miroku wrapped his wind tunnel up with a pearl looking necklace. As quickly as all of this happened, it was finished. The insects flew away, and Naraku's scent disappeared. "What the hell!" KoKo shouted running after the insects, trying not to lose them. Inuyasha and the others ran after her, also trying not to lose the insects when all of a sudden KoKo stopped. She stared up at a lady floating on a giant feather. "Who the hell are you!" KoKo demandingly questioned. "I am Kougra, a wind sorcerer.""Wait... you smell like Naraku!""Yes, I am his incarnation." Everybody was stunned by what she had just said. "You wench!" KoKo popped her knuckled and brought out her claws from her fingers. "If you are with Naraku in any way, THEN YOU MUST DIE!" KoKo charged toward Kougra. Kougra brought out her fan and gently yet quickly said "Dance of Blades." KoKo easily dodged the blades with full energy. "You are quicker than I though you were," Kougra evilly said. "DANCE OF BLADES!" Kougra fiercely said this time. Yet this time, KoKo could not dodge all of the blades. Two of the blades came towards both of KoKo's legs and cut out both of the jewel shards. KoKo fell to the ground, blood flowing out of her legs. Inuyasha picked his sword up with both of his hands and swung at Kougra, "WIND SCARE!" Kougra got caught up in the middle of the attack. When the dust from the ground disappeared, everyone saw that Kougra had flown away on her giant feather. "Damn it all," KoKo weakly whispered. Inuyasha withdrew his sword and ran to KoKo, and Kogeme ran to where she sensed KoKo's shards.Inuyasha looked at KoKo with the most worried look that KoKo had ever seen the whole time she had been with them. "Don't worry," KoKo slowly sat up, "I'm fine." Kogeme quickly ran over to KoKo and handed her the two jewel shards that had been cut out of her legs. "Here, you will probably feel stronger when you put these back in," Kogeme suggested. "Thank you." KoKo took that shards and put them back in her legs. "I fell better already. What happened to Koga?" KoKo stood up and looked all around for Koga. "Oh no… I don't smell him anymore." By now KoKo was freaking out. "We have to find him!" KoKo kept on going. "Wait…. I lost his scent after I couldn't smell Naraku anymore." KoKo looked at Inuyasha and almost started to cry. "WE HAVE TO FIND HIM!" KoKo screamed at Inuyasha. Inuyasha did nothing but look at KoKo and at the rest of the group. "She's right, Inuyasha," Miroku said. So, they started to call out to him. "This isn't going to work- we have to spread out," Kogeme ordered. "KoKo, Sango, Shippo, and Kilala will go that way," Kogeme pointed the way where the first saw the poison insects. "And Inuyasha, Miroku, and I will go this way," Kogeme pointed the way where Kougra had disappeared. So, they were on there way where they were ordered to go. After about what seemed an hour, the sun started to come up. "I smell Naraku," KoKo told the group she was traveling with. "So do I," Shippo added. Sango jumped onto Kilala, and started running with KoKo and Shippo in the direction where KoKo and Shippo had caught the scent of Naraku. As the scent got stronger, KoKo started to smell Koga. "I can smell Koga a little!" KoKo started to run faster and faster ahead of the others until she got up to a castle. "KOGA!" KoKo shouted up to the fifty- foot tall castle. KoKo looked down at her legs and then her wounds in her stomach and started to quickly climb the castle. When KoKo got to an opened window, she climbed in. After she climbed all the way in, a little girl that had whit hair, a small round mirror in her hands, and a white flower in her hair walked in. "Who are you?" KoKo demanded. "Look into my mirror." KoKo looked into her mirror unaware of what would happen. When all of a sudden, KoKo's soul started to get sucked into the mirror. "No," KoKo weakly said. KoKo pulled away from letting her soul get completely sucked in and fell to the ground. Koga ran in and the little girl disappeared into the thin air.Back at where Sango, Kilala, and Shippo were, they were trying to knock down the door. The door opened up out of nowhere, and they walked in. "Where is KoKo," Shippo asked in his confusing and cute voice. "I don't know. I saw her climb up to the first window, so she must be pretty high up. There are the stairs!" So they started to climb up the stairs when, they were stopped by Kougra.-Back at Inuyasha, Kogeme, and Miroku were. "I don't think Naraku is this was," Inuyasha suggested. "Neither do I," Miroku agreed. Kogeme did not say anything- all she did was shake her head with a frightened look on her face. "Wait… I smell Naraku!" They all stopped looking ahead of them and waiting for Naraku or Kougra to come. Naraku came quickly at them in a tornado of miasma. "So, ya'll have decided to look for me," Naraku said in a deep, cold voice.
