"I can't take this anymore! It's been way too long, I need to go check

things out…"

Yuki wanted to enter the cave but encountered one problem- how

The hell will she get in?

'The entrance in blocked by rocks…'

After a few minutes, a brilliant idea came to her-

"A spell to find a lost love, that's it! Wither my love
Wherever you be
Through time and space
Take my heart
Near to thee."

The next thing she knew, Yuki was inside someones stomach!

"Oh my god…Bankotsu…" she saw her loved one uncouncios and held by something that looked like a deformed vain.

Also there, were Inuyasha and the rest.

"Yuki chan!"

"Kagome…"

"Come over here, it's very dangerous!"

"Demo, Kagome…"

"YUKI! WATCH OUT!"

a kaze no kizo blast came right to her.

Yuki crossed her hands to cover her face and ended up creating a barrier.

"Since when can Yuki san create shields?" Miroku asked.

"Yuki chan…"

"Your cousin is a majo." Inuyasha declared.

"NANI? Are you calling my cousin a witch?"

"He's telling the truth." Yuki said.

"Then now's a good time to work up some magic!" Sango said.

"NANI!" Kagome was still shocked.

"I don't think that's a good idea, remember Naraku can reflect attacks." Miroku said.

"Hai, Houshi sama, you're right."

"Demo, I must save Bankotsu, I can't just stand here like a fool and do nothing!"

"Then now will be a good time to act, look!" Shippo said and pointed to Bankotsus'

direction where Naraku was about to remove the shards.

"No, I won't let him! Hell threw you from its inner core
But Earth won't hold you anymore
Since heaven cannot be your place
Your flesh and blood we now erase."

Naraku began to fade, but smirked and said:

"I have a more important mission today anyway…"

the whole place was caving in.

"Kuso, we need to get out of here fast!" Inuyasha said.

"But we need to get Kouga- kun first." Kagome said with worry in her voice.

By some miracle, they all managed to get out of that horrible place.

'Demo…Bankotsu koishii is badly wounded…'

"Yuki chan," Kagome said putting a hand on her cousins shoulder, "I know, I mean about you and Bankotsu…"

"Hai…so?"

"It's a bit strange, how easily a person can change when they meet a special one."

"Hai, ningen no kokoro… a wondrous thing."

"Oh no…" Inuyasha said, "Guys, let's go, something's up with Naraku and…

Kikyo."

They all followed.

"Sayonara, Yuki chan!" Kagome dashed after the rest of the gang.

Yuki was alone with the battered Bankotsu.

"Yu..ki…"

"Koishii, are you alright?"

"Not really, I'm going down babe…" he chuckled.

"No way, I won't let that happen!"

"This is what I deserve, for killing so many."

"No… no, you've changed…"

"The few moments of good I had do not redeem me of all my evil doing.

Aishiteru, Yuki…maybe, in another lifetime…"

"NO!" she began crying, "You can't leave me… not now that I am…

no, I won't give up on you, as long as you have the shard… all I need is that pollen…

I had it with me, I'm sure I, oh no… I used it to save that little girls life, there's none left…"

Tears poured out like blood from an open wound.

'Not now, I really wanted to tell him…I'll never get the chance… damn good witchcraft! In the dark arts they have necromancy, something useful…'
