Chapter 1

Kagome held the almost completed Shikon jewel in her hand. She watched as Inuyasha, Sango, Miroku, and Kirara fought Naraku side-by-side. Kagome frowned in disappointment.

'I hate always having to hide safely somewhere and feel helpless… I'm the jewel detector! I'm the Miko!'

She gripped her bow, determined.

'I'm going to help and defeat Naraku! Not just sit around and watch…'

She aimed carefully and let the arrow fly. The arrow whizzed passed their heads and towards Naraku with Miko energy surrounding the arrow. Naraku glared at Kagome menacingly.

"Impudent wench…" he cursed under his breath.

Kanna, coming out of nowhere, appeared in front of Naraku causing the arrow to be absorbed into the mirror and being shot back twice as fast towards Kagome.

"Kagome!"

Inuyasha cried out her name, knowing that even if he ran to save her he wouldn't make it. Kagome's eyes widened with fear. She tried dodging the arrow, but to no avail. The arrow pierced her stomach and through the back.

She coughed up blood a couple of times before collapsing on the ground.

"Kagome!" Inuyasha called out to her again. He tried running over to her, but Naraku beat him to it.

"Finally… The Miko girl…" he said pulling her up and throwing her over his shoulder.

"Get your grimy hands off of her!" Inuyasha yelled angrily.

Sango and Miroku watched worriedly for Kagome's safety.

"If you want to have her back…" he looked at Kagome with his red eyes, "Then, come to my castle. I think you'll be able to…sniff it out if you try."

And with that, Naraku, Kanna and Kagome disappeared. Inuyasha growled angrily.

Sango put a reassuring hand on his shoulder, "We'll get her back, Inuyasha. Don't fret."

Miroku nodded in agreement. "I can feel his strong aura. I think we'll find him sooner than we think…"

Kagura looked at Kagome's lifeless body disgustingly. "Would you like me to finish her off? Or…do you have plan for her?"

Naraku smirked. "Yes. I think this Miko will help me defeat Inuyasha," he answered. He pointed to a large vase in the corner, "Bring me that vase."

Kagura rolled her eyes, but obeyed. She lifted the vase up with ease and placed it beside Naraku. He opened up the vase and dipped one of his shards in the thick, red liquid.

"This…is cat demon blood."

"I know. I can smell it." Kagura spat out covering her nose with her sleeve.

"I'm going to put this shard into Kagome. Thus, making Kagome slowly turn into a cat demon. Giving her the agility, strength and power of a cat demon."

Kagura smiled with amazement, "I think this is your best idea yet, Naraku."

"Hai. But, I need you to take care of something…"

Kagura raised her eye brow with confusion. "What is it now?"

He glared at her from the tone of her voice, but decided to ignore it. "I can already smell Inuyasha nearby. I need you and Kanna to distract him. It takes a while for the powers to kick in."

She rolled her eyes. "Whatever…"

And with that, she left the room.

Naraku smirked evilly at Kagome and placed the bloody shard into her forehead.

"Kagome the cat demon…" Naraku murmured.

"You guys, I see his castle! It's up ahead on that hill!" Inuyasha yelled from over his shoulder.

Sango nodded in understanding. She pat Kirara's back for her to go faster. Kirara nodded and started running faster through the air. They were only a few feet off the ground.

"Don't worry, Kagome. I'm gonna save you." Inuyasha said determined.
