Hey all, thanks for the reviews. Just to let you know, I don't own Inuyasha, but I have kidnapped some of the characters and I promise to return them safely.

Chapter 3

The two youkais lead Kagome down a long hallway and then stopped at a door. When they opened it, Kagome walked into a gorgeous room that a queen-size canopy bed with forest green covering, two maple dressers with gold paint outlining them and a maple vanity and all had a fine finish. The walls were maple as well. Kagome looked all around the room, marveling every little detail. "Is this room okay for you, Miss?" "It beautiful." "Well, until we get word that you can see the Lord, you may go where you please, except the Lord's chambers, which is down the hall and up the few stairs on the right." Kagome nodded and then said, "Understood. Now, can you tell me where the archery range is?" "Sure. It down the grand stairs and to the left, there will be a door leading to the archery range." She bowed and said, "Thank you." She then left the room.

She followed their directions and exited the castle to the archery range. She set up the target as she liked and then began firing her arrows. Every time she fired one, it whistled down to the target because it was traveling so fast and nailed the bulls-eye every time. A tall, well built inu youkai was passing by the archery range reading a book. His silky silver hair blew behind him as he walked. He was reading on other tribes and countries. He heard the whistle of something moving extremely fast and then a thunk as it hit something. He looked up from his book to see a pale skinned inu youkai with long dark brown hair, pulled into a ponytail, firing arrow after arrow at the target and hitting the bulls-eye every time. He watched in amazement that the arrows were flying so fast that he had a hard time seeing them until they struck the target.

Kagome continued to fire when she felt someone near her. She turned her head to the left to see a tall, well built silver inu youkai with flowing silver hair watching her with a pair of golden eyes. She grabbed her bow with both hands and then noticed his book. She gasped and said, "Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to disturb you." He shut his book and calmly said, "You didn't." He walked onto the range and looked over her features. "I haven't seen you before. Why are you here?" Kagome turned her body to him and said, "Well, I'm waiting for when the Lord of this tribe can speak with me." "What's your name?" Kagome looked around shyly and said, "Um…Kagome." "Well Kagome, I…" Just then, a little toad youkai came running out. "Sesshoumaru-sama!"

Sesshoumaru growled and then said, "What, Jaken?" Jaken stopped in front of him and said, "You are need in the main hall, sir." Sesshoumaru growled a bit and then said, "Very well. Good day to you Kagome." Kagome bow slightly and said, "Good day." She watched him turn and head in toward the main hall. She smiled a little and then went to the target and began to remove her arrows.

As Sesshoumaru headed into the castle, he glanced over his shoulder and saw the girl smile at him. He brushed it off and then enter the castle and heard Jaken say, "My Lord, who was that young inu youkai?" Sesshoumaru coldly replied, "Not now, Jaken." "Yes, my Lord." They entered the main hall and there stood the lord to the north's assistant, Kagura. "Yo, Sesshoumaru." Jaken was shocked and ran up to her and said, "How dare you speak to Lord…" Sesshoumaru growled and said, "Jaken!" Jaken shakily backed up and then Sesshoumaru looked at Kagura and said, "What is your reason your Lord sent you here?" "He wants you to join him on a quest." Sesshoumaru raised an eyebrow and said, "What quest?" "He seeks the Shikon no Tama and he wants you to help him." Sesshoumaru turned around and brushed off her offer and said, "I have no desire for such things. Tell him I decline." He then said to Jaken, "Jaken, show her out." Sesshoumaru then left the main hall and up the stairs. Just then, Kagome entered the main hall as Sesshoumaru went up the stairs. He glanced at her as he continued up the stairs. Kagura saw Kagome entered the main hall and saw around her neck a small purple sphere. She stared at it for a moment and thought, 'Is this who Naraku is looking for?' She then heard, "Come on, Sesshoumaru has asked you to leave." Kagura shot Jaken a death glance, but then left through the doors. Kagome came up to Jaken and said, "Who was that?" "That was Kagura, one of Naraku's assistants." "Naraku? That name sounds familiar, but I don't know from where." Jaken looked up at Kagome to question her, but then noticed her markings. He gasped a little, but then she said, "Well, I'm going to my room." Jaken watched her climb the stairs in awe and thought, 'She's…"

I know this chapter is short, but this was good place to end the chapter. Don't forget to review.
