Chapter 31:
Kagome woke up in a dark room. She couldn't see anything. She was chained up, unable to go anywhere. She pulled on the chains, trying to free herself. She tried using her powers to break the chains. Nothing worked.
Then a door opened. She saw a figure in the doorway. It was...
"Hojo?" Kagome asked.
"Kagome?" Hojo asked. "Is that you?" He continued to asked. Then he ran over to her, kneeling beside her. "What happened to you?"
"I don't know." Kagome said. "I was with Inuyasha, and then someone pulled me away from him. I don't remember anything else."
"Here." Hojo said as he picked up the keys to the chains and unlocked them.
"Thanks Hojo." Kagome thanked him.
"Why would someone do this to you?" Hojo asked.
"Because I'm in love with a half-demon. And I am also half-demon, but my other half is pixie. Inuyasha's other half is human, and the council doesn't want us together because Inuyasha doesn't have any fairy or pixie in him." Kagome explained. Then tears began to run down her face. "But I love him." She cried.
"It's OK Kagome." Hojo said. Then he looked her in the eyes. "I understand now that you don't love me and your heart has already been taken by another." Hojo said, then he hugged Kagome, trying to comfort her and to get her to stop crying. "But I will do anything in my power to help you." He said.
"You will?" Kagome asked.
"Absolutely." Hojo told her. "It is wrong of the council to do this to you, after how much you and your mother have done for us in the past."
"Thank you so much Hojo." Kagome thanked him as she returned his hug, then pulled away.
Then the door in front of them slammed shut. Kagome and Hojo both jumped and looked at the door. Kagome ran to it, only to find it locked. "Danm!" She cursed. Then she held out her hand and a ball of light lit of in it, before blasting a huge hole in the door. "Come on!" She yelled to Hojo. "Let's get out of here!"
"Right!" Hojo yelled as he followed Kagome back to the jail where Inuyasha was being kept.
AN- There. Hojo no longer wants to marry Kagome. Are you happy? And Kagome is now free. Are you happier? Good. Plz R&R. Thanx! TTFN!
