Last time: Kay and Michelle decided that they were going to steal Sesshoumaru's chest, but find themselves in one of Naraku's castles, where Kanna resides. After getting over Kanna's hair being blue, they find their way to Sesshoumaru's castle and go inside, searching for the chest.

Chapter 9: Captured by Naraku!

Rin led them through many different hallways, making them travel a long, long ways. Shippo climbed on Kay's shoulder because he got tired and Michelle would growl at him whenever he got on her shoulder.

Rin stopped in front of two large doors, elaborately designed and carved. There were crescent moons on each door, the moons facing each other, and many different designs around it. The handles to the doors were golden and beautiful, both based on a moon design, and like most doors in the feudal era, you had to pull on it to open it. The only difference between these doors and other doors from this era was that this was solid wood, and you couldn't see through it.

"This is Lord Sesshoumaru's room. The chest is in there," Rin said, pointing at the door. "I am not allowed in there, so I must stay out here. I have only seen glimpses of the room, and saw the chest while out here."

Kay gulped and moved her hand slowly towards the door handle. "Pull it already!" Michelle yelled impatiently.

Kay glared, but didn't take her eyes from the handle. She grasped her hand around the golden moon handle and could feel how cold it was underneath her skin. She grasped the other door too and pulled them apart, revealing a beautiful room. The floor and walls were dark, but Sesshoumaru had a real bed instead of a cot. The bed had purple sheets and there was a door to a balcony across the room. Kay saw a closet across from them and walked over to it and opened it. Inside was... THOSE FLUFFY THINGS THAT SESSHOUMARU WEARS!

Kay gasped and took one down and rubbed her face in the fur. "IT'S SO DAMN SOFT!" She yelled, but not loud enough for Sesshoumaru's excellent hearing to detect. She smiled and looked around for the chest, and used her telepathy to bring it over to her. She lifted the lid and took four fluffy things, that we will just call 'fluffies' like many other people do, and put them in the chest nicely. "I've always wanted one of these," Kay said as she closed the chest, making sure not to get the fluffies caught in the lid, "and now we both have two, Michelle!" Kay smiled and then nodded, saying that they should go now. They got the chest and the fluffies, so they could leave.

"Can I see a fluffy thing?" Michelle asked, holding out her hand.

"No. If Sesshoumaru sees one, he'll go wild! We can't take that chance," Kay said, getting on Charlie and using telepathy to keep the chest next to them.

"Everyone on!" Kay said, smiling.

Rin looked sad and she waved as Charlie ran off with the girls and fox demon on his back. He followed their scents back to the entrance and then slowly walked forward, trying to call out Kirara with his mind. Kay called out for InuYasha and Michelle for Sango, none of them wanting to get in the mind of that pervert.

INUYASHA! Kay yelled, reaching for his mind.

I'm trying to battle! he replied.

We got the chest, you can stop, Kay said, smirking.

The other two relayed similar messages to Kirara and Sango, and Charlie ran outside, hoping that the others would get there soon. And soon enough, there was a huge explosion and then InuYasha and the others ran out of the castle. InuYasha jumped on Charlie and he rose into the air, starting to fly, and Kirara flew next to him, both of them heading towards Kaede's Village.

After traveling many miles, and for many hours, Charlie and Kirara landed, letting everyone get some much deserved rest. They fell asleep without even lighting a fire.

- - -

"MIROKU! YOU PERVERT!" Sango yelled as she slapped him. "AS IF GROPING MY BUTT WASN'T ENOUGH!" Sango turned around, a furious shade of red and clutching her chest. She grabbed for her hiriakotsu and started to hit Miroku over the head multiple times with it.

Kay winced at every yell, every scream and every klunk that was the hiriakotsu on Miroku's head.

"Dammit... I was hoping I would be able to sleep in," Kay said as she opened her eyes and groaned. She pushed herself up and wiped the dirt from her face. She sat up and looked at a new fire in front of her and she sighed. "Let's get to Kaede's Village so we can try and get out of here."

Kay stood up and stretched. "Maybe we should have breakfast first?" Kagome asked.

"Sure. That works too," Kay said as she sat back down.

They ate their breakfast and mounted their animals. Kay lifted the chest using her mind and they set off, going to Kaede's Village.

After about an hour of two, they made it to Kaede's Village and stopped in front of her house. Kay lifted the chest and brought it inside, and she set it next to the wall, everyone getting strange looks from Kaede.

"What are ye doing here?" Kaede asked, standing up from her fire.

"We need you to store that chest here, old woman," InuYasha said.

"Hm... I suppose that is all right. Why is it important?" the old priestess asked.

"It may bring us home," Kay said as she opened the lid and pushed aside the fluffy things.

"This is definitely the correct chest. This mark on the bottom is the same as the one in my chest at home," Kay said, touching the mark. It was a hand with a paw print in the middle of it, and it looked like it was branded into the wood. The mark glowed and Kay stepped into the chest, but nothing happened.

"What is wrong with this thing!" Kay yelled as she got out of it.

"Maybe you have to do something before you can leave," Kagome said as she looked inside the chest. She sighed and closed the lid lightly. She smiled and said, "Well, then, let's find out what you have to do."

In InuYasha: Secret of the Cursed Mask, your character couldn't go home until you killed that one person that looked just like you, Utsugi, because you were bound to that world by a spell! Kay thought. She smiled and nodded, but couldn't help but feel a little bit discouraged. "Well, we should stay here for a couple days and see if we can find anything out."

Everyone agreed and Kay and Michelle decided to explore the village, and they met people and talked with them. They explored outside the village a little bit too, and then they heard something.

"What was that?" Kay asked Michelle.

Michelle fell on the ground unconscious.

"MICHELLE!" Kay yelled before she was hit in the back of the head with a blunt object.

- - -

Kay's eyes cracked open, and she tried to move her hand to wipe the blood out of her eyes, but she couldn't move it. She looked down slowly and saw she was tied up to a plank of wood that made her feel like she was standing up, like in those sci-fi movies with the weird scientists doing tests on people. She tried to move the rope with her mind, but she couldn't concentrate enough to do anything.

Next to her was Michelle, also tied up, and also awake. They were in a dark room that looked like it was going to close in on you. A horrible smell stayed in the room, and it gave Kay and Michelle a headache.

Naraku walked into the room and glared at the two girls, looking at them with a vile smirk. He gave a small laugh and said, "Now, I want you to tell me the truth. OK?" Naraku walked over to Kay and put a hand on her chin and moved it up. She glared at him and bared her teeth as a shiver went through her body from the touch.

"When does InuYasha become human?" Naraku asked, taking his hand away from her face.

That bastard! He wants to find out when InuYasha's is human so he can kill him! I can't tell him the truth! Kay thought. She knew Michelle heard her thoughts and heard an agreement inside her mind. Even though they couldn't think straight didn't mean that they couldn't put two and two together...

"He becomes human... the night when the left half of the moon is missing," Kay said, looking into Naraku's eyes and keeping a straight face. Naraku looked out into the sky and stared at the moon.

"That night is tomorrow. Good. You two won't be able to use your telekinesis powers because of my miasma," Naraku said, smirking.

Kay growled inside her mind and sighed. Naraku left the room and left them to stay there, and Kay's headache worsened.

- - -

Kagome was worried out of her mind, and Sango sat next to her, equally as worried. Miroku was in deep thought next to the two women, wondering who could have possibly taken the girls.

InuYasha sat in the corner, looking as if nothing happened. His eyes were closed and he had his legs crossed. In reality, he was a little bit worried, but he wouldn't let it show.

"InuYasha, aren't you worried?" Shippo asked InuYasha.

"Feh. Why should I be?" InuYasha answered, opening his eyes to glare at the young fox demon.

"Because two of our friends are gone!" Kagome yelled at him.

"That's not my fault!" InuYasha yelled back.

"I know that, but you could show at least a little bit of worry! You are such a jerk sometimes!" Kagome said, her voice rising with every word.

"Feh," InuYasha answered as he stood up and walked outside. He looked up to the moon and saw how almost all of the right half of the moon was gone. He glared at it and started to walk towards the forest, following the trail that Kay and Michelle did. He followed their scents and then stopped, not smelling them any more. This must be where they were taken... InuYasha thought as he looked at the ground.

Wait! There's another scent here! Why didn't I realize it sooner? That scent is familiar... That's-- InuYasha's thoughts cut off as he ran to Kaede's hut to tell the others what he had found out.

- - -

Morning came soon enough, but Kay and Michelle got little sleep. They were still tied up when Naraku came into the room that morning. He made sure their hands were tied tightly and they couldn't move their arms, which were tied at their sides.

He smirked and grabbed the two by the collars of their shirts and then walked them to the entrance of the castle. The miasma was still around them when he grabbed onto them as best he could, so he wouldn't drop them, and he then flew through the air using a cloud of miasma.

Kay was trying to figure out what they were supposed to do to get themselves out of this mess, but Michelle was just grossed out that Naraku was touching her.

As soon as Kaede's Village was in sight, Naraku landed in a small clearing in the forest that was dark and had two trees in it, waiting for InuYasha to smell him and come. Before InuYasha arrived though, he decided to make preparations. He tied Michelle and Kay to the two trees and left them there, and then stood there, waiting.

"What are we supposed to do now? Just starve!" Michelle asked, getting angry.

"Be patient. You'll find out soon enough," Naraku said.

"God, Michelle. You have no patience at all, do you?" Kay asked Michelle.

"Well, sorry, but not everyone is blessed with the patience of a rock," Michelle said.

"That makes no sense!" Kay replied.

"It means you have a lot of patience, stupid," Michelle said in a snobby tone.

"But a rock is an inanimate object, and isn't alive. Therefore, it can't have patience," Kay said smartly.

"The one with the odd colored eyes and curly hair has a point," Naraku said. Kay stuck out her tongue to Michelle.

"Getting praise from a jackass isn't exactly something to be proud of," Michelle said.

"At least I'm right," Kay replied quickly.

- - -

InuYasha ran through the forest with Kagome on his back and Kirara, Miroku, Sango, Shippo and Charlie at his sides. Charlie was most determined to get to Kay and he was growling his lungs out.

InuYasha had smelt Naraku's scent and the two girls' scents too, so they were obviously going to go after them, but by the time that they would get there, it would be night. They knew that they were far away, but every step the scent of Naraku got stronger and stronger, as did his miasma.

Just before the sun had set, InuYasha had caught sight of Naraku and the two girls, both of them tied to trees and weak from the Miasma.

"Naraku!" InuYasha said as he ran into the clearing. "It's unlike you to lure us to a place outside your castle! Prepare to fight, and die!" InuYasha said as he drew his Tetsusaiga and ran towards Naraku, getting ready to attack him.

Naraku sent a tentacle towards InuYasha and blocked his sword.

"You know, it's almost night. It should be you who's worried," Naraku said with a smirk.

What's he talking about? InuYasha asked himself.

Just then the sun went down and the half moon shone, the right half still visible. Naraku shifted and glared at Kay, who was smirking. "You lied! You stupid wench! You lied to me!" Naraku said, anger licking his insides.

"Do you really think I would have told you when InuYasha becomes human? I hate you almost as much as Sango does, and I think that you should die a painful and horrible death. I would never betray my friends, no matter what they did to me. You may have used the miasma to block my powers and try and get info out of me, but I will never tell you when InuYasha becomes a human," Kay said, smirking the whole time. Her eyes were hidden in shadow, but if you could see them, you would see pure hatred and a little bit of craziness.

InuYasha smirked. "You hear that, Naraku? My friends are loyal to me, and would never betray me," InuYasha said. He kept smiling, but then something caught his attention. I smell wolf! he thought, but kept his eyes on Naraku.

Then an explosion appeared between the two trees, sending dust and dirt everywhere. When the smoke cleared, Michelle, Naraku and Kay were gone, but there was something weird. Michelle's ropes were on the ground, and Kay's ropes were gone with her.

"I had smelt Koga... He must have taken one of them while the smoke was settling," InuYasha said with a growl.

- - -

When Michelle came too, she was in a dark cave and could hear a waterfall. The cave smelt of canine and there were many people there with her, most of them males.

She looked around and saw that the people there were wolf demons, and they looked hungry.

Koga walked in with those two weird wolf demons and some wolves following behind him. What were the names of those two wolf demons? Uh... Hakku and Ginta? I think that's it, Michelle thought as she looked at the odd looking demons. Their hair was the weirdest things about them.

"Good, you're up. You were that girl traveling with Kagome, weren't you?" Koga said.

"Where's Kay?" Michelle asked urgently.

"The one who insulted you? Yeah, she was tied up to a tree, like you," Koga said.

"Why didn't you save her!" Michelle yelled.

"Because I want you to be my woman," Koga said.

"WHAT! What about Kagome!" yelled Michelle. "I thought you loved her!"

"Yeah, Koga. What about Kagome?" Hakku asked.

"I gave up on her. She seemed to interested in that mutt..." Koga said sadly.

Michelle fainted and stayed asleep for a long time.

Next time: After Koga says that Michelle is his woman, she gets angry and confused. But Kay also has someone who saves her. Who is it?

Michelle: I am not your woman, Koga!

Koga: Michelle! I won't let anyone else have you!

Kay: Ha ha!

Michelle: Shut up, bitch!

Kay: I love you too!

Michelle: Grr...

Koga: I am in the next chapter too! And it's called Unexpected Rescuers!
