"Sir, Kikyo is here."
"Only her?"
"Yes."
Naraku paused for a moment then frowned. "Bring her in."
The door closed and opened after a moment. A tall girl walked, wearing a pissed off expression.
"What do you want Naraku?" She snapped.
"I told you to bring Inuyasha, why didn't you?" He asked quietly.
Kikyo ignored him and plopped down on the couch eyeing her nails.
"We agreed that you will let me have Inuyasha. I know you and his history Naraku. Handling him to you will be the last thing I'll do."
The man swung around in his chair and faced Kikyo for the first time.
"If you are not willing to compromise Kikyo, then I will have to do it the hard way."
Kikyo's laughter was silenced when two men came barged into the room and grabbed her.
"I am a reasonable man Kikyo. I will help you if you'll help me. It is unfortunate that you are not willing Kikyo because I was looking forward to watching you kill Inuyasha."
"Let go of me you bastard." She screamed trashing against the men's arms.
"You thought you were so smart didn't you Kikyo? You like many others have just fallen into my trap; it just goes to show you shouldn't be so full of yourself."
"Take her out." He motioned briefly to the men and picked up the phone.
"You can get those two now."

Kagome opened her eyes to the familiar surroundings of the hospital ward. The disinfectant smell hung heavy in the air, almost visible against the stark paleness of the walls and equipments.
She signed and pushed herself up against the pillow, the pounding headache fading like an old memory. She looked out the window and took a deep breath in. The trees billowed waving its branches to the soft blue sky under which the visitors and patients walked. The garden was in full bloomed, its multitude array of colours blending into each other.
Kagome saw all this but was unable to smile. Images of what happened in the past twenty four hours slowly came to her and all she could do was clench her palms tight to prevent anger from busting. A small tear leaked out of the corner of her eyes which she angrily brushed away.
She hated Inuyasha, hated him for doing this to her, for making her hurt time and time again. She hated herself more because she was unable to stop loving Inuyasha.
His soft eyes which hid behind layers of emotions that churned in his mind and his touch… an image of Inuyasha dead and bloody suddenly popped up in her mind making her cringe.
There was a commotion outside and footsteps echoed outside the hall. Kagome ignored it too busy trying to forget what she had just imaged. The door banged open and two men barged in.
"What the hell?" She exclaimed eyeing the men in surprise. "Who are you?"
The men didn't answer. One of them clamped his hand over her mouth while the other proceeded with tying up her hand. Kagome struggled against the man until eventually – the lack of air black every thing out.

When she woke up she was inside a dark room. She couldn't move and realised that she was chained against the wall. The chains jingled against her movement as she tried to find a way off it.
"Don't bother."
Kagome yelped and swung around unaware that there was another person inside. The voice was slightly familiar to her - then she suddenly remembered.
"Bankotsu?!"
"Still remember me huh?" The voice drawled with no emotions was evident.
"What are you doing here? I thought you were Naraku's man!"
Bankotsu laughed, laughed until he choked on his own saliva.
"I was my dear," he said angrily "until I found out that he had no intention of helping my brothers out of jail so I decide to quit."
Kagome paused slowly digesting the information.
"And then what happened?"
"He got pissed off so the locked me up and told me he had sent men in to kill them, everyone fucking one of them."
Kagome gasped shocked at what he had said and could not find the words to reply.
"Um...so what is going to happen to you?" She asked nervously after a while.
Bankotsu sniggered but did not reply.
Kagome took that answer as he did not know and went back to pulling against the chains.
Her hands were spared before long when the jail door clinked open and a man came in.
A short while later, with extra bruises, a sore throat and a very much pissed off guy Kagome arrived in a small office. She was ready to scream the house down when she glimpse a shape in the corner. It took her a minute to realize it was a body and another to recognize the female body shape.
She turned around to ask who it was but was answered with a rough shove into the room.
"Thanks for being so kind." She muttered angrily. He guy only glared at her and then slammed the door shut.
The loud bang echoed in the air stunning her ears for a second. She shook her head and crawled to the corner trying to clear the noise out.
The body was twitching from what Kagome guess was pain. When she touched her, the person flinched and crawl deeper into the wall.
As carefully as possible, she turned the head to identify the person. A little scream tore through her throat sending her crawling back a fast as possible.
The body was Kikyo but it had changed dramatically. Her face was so bloody that it was hard to recognize her at all. Scratched marks traced their way along the cheek from the nose to the ears and what had left of her beautiful lips was reduced to an ugly bloody blob of flesh.
Guessing from her position, whoever did this to Kikyo had done much worst to her body. Kagome shook from terror and anger. She never liked her but no one deserved this kind of pain.
Tearing her gaze away from the stricken body, she eyed the room she was thrown in and in her dismay; it was completely empty of any other object. She glanced at Kikyo clenched with worry. If she doesn't get help soon, she was most likely to die.
She needed to think of something and fast. "Come quickly Inuyasha," she whispered. "Don't let another die because of you."

Inuyasha grabbed the man's arm and twist it all the way around until he heard the sickening crunch of a dislodged arm. The man screamed in pain and dropped to the ground.
Another came from behind him with a gun in hand.
"I don't think you should use that," Inuyasha said breathing through his mouth as his nose was still bloody from the punch the now unconscious guy had given him.
"Naraku won't want me dead, not unless he was the one who did the killing."
"You better co-operate Inuyasha, Naraku has both girls now and I heard that one is in a bad shape-" he didn't get to finish the sentence before Inuyasha pounced on him.
All trace of humanity left his eyes and was replace by cold hunger, the once hazel turned red. The man in his grips shuddered in terror.
"Is this true what you just said?" He uttered a low growl from the base of his throat.
"It is true sir, we-"
"WHERE ARE THEY?" He roared in his face.
"A-at Naraku's base ne-near the harbour." He stuttered his eyes not leaving Inuyasha's face.
"Well, Naraku should have brought more men to get me." He bared his teeth and twisted the terrified man's neck in once quick moment ending his life.
Inuyasha stood there staring at the bodies around him. He grunted falling on his knee. This scene reminded him too much of what happened years ago, things he did not want to ever see.
Suddenly, a phone ran in the air. Inuyasha groped around for his phone and realised it was someone else's phone that was ringing. Getting up quickly, he looked around until he saw it lodge underneath the man with the knife in the head.
"Stan? The boss request for your appearance and that for Inuyasha."
"Inuyasha will most certainly be present shortly sir," he drawled, fury dripping from his words. "It is most unfortunate however that Stan and his men are unable to join you due to complicated reasons."
"W-what?! Wait who are you? What did you do to Stan?"
"Stan? The one with the broken neck or the one without an arm?"
Inuyasha chuckled and chucking away the phone. Naraku is going to pay for this. Aiming for him was fine but hurting Kikyo or Kagome was most certainly not.
Kicking away the dead corpse, he treaded through the puddles of blood relishing the feel of Naraku dying in his hands, slowly and painfully.
