Chapter 3: Naraku

"Naraku, can't you just stay dead for once!" InuYasha yelled.

"InuYasha you and everyone at this castle shall die!" Naraku attacked. He was much faster than before. 'Damn! I can't move!' Ryukotsusea growled out loud. "Your attempts are in vain. You will never beat me and I will have all of the Shikon No Tama!"

"No you wont!" Ryukotsusea attacked but was slower than usual. She thrust her sword through his eye. And then punched him. He went flying. "Whoa." she said. "InuYasha use your Wind Scar!" she yelled. InuYasha nodded.

"Wind Scar!" the attack went flying and hit Naraku. He didn't die though. Out of no where came a green whip.

"Sesshoumaru!" Ryukotsusea looked up and there was Sesshoumaru on his cloud. "I mean Sesshoumaru-sama." she fixed quickly. He didn't even pay attention. He was preoccupied by Naraku. Show how much he cares! she thought.

"Naraku, why are you here?" he growled.

"I am here to kill you, InuYasha and anyone who gets in my way! Attack my shades!" A whole army of shades became visable.

"Naraku this is low even for you!" Ryukotsusea growled. She would have attacked but her leg wouldn't move at all. 'Damnnit! I should have listened! Too late to regret it now.'

"Ryukotsusea go get you wound healed and then come back." Sesshoumaru said.

"I can't. Naraku's poison vapors imoiblize me." she said.

"Shouron take her." Shouron nodded and then grabbed Ryukotsusea.

"OW! THAT HURTS!" she yelled. Shouron flinched. It hurt his ear.

"Deal with it. We can't stop." Shouron was going as fast as he could.

"InuYasha, we don't stand a chance agaisnt this many." Kagome said.

"Just watch. When Ryukotsusea get's back we will have a better chance. For now we have to hold them off. Start shooting arrows." InuYasha said. Kagome went over to Kirara and told her to fly. Kagome was out of harms way and she had clear shots to fire. Suddenly this huge creature flew up in fromt of Kirara. Kirara growled at it.

"Don't think I forgot about the fire neko." Naraku said. Kagome shot an arrow and it destroyed the creature.

"Wind Scar!" InuYasha yelled. His attack destoryed a great number of Naraku's army. "Feh, they weren't much." The pecies started to form together. "That's new! There's always a catch!" InuYasha said sarcasticly.

"InuYasha, you shall die here!" InuYasha knew that voice.

"Kagura!" he asked. "I thought you were dead." he growled.

"Little brother, quit chatting and attack!" Sesshoumaru growled. Shouron and Ryukotsusea came back.

"I'm back! Get ready to die Naraku!" she yelled. She plowed through the shades and made her way to Naraku. She stabbed them all in the heart. "Stab them in the heart! They will die instanly!" she yelled loud enough for everyone to hear. Kagome shot an arrow and it purified a everything it went through.

"Dragon Strike!" Sesshoumaru's attack joined with InuYasha's and destroyed everything expect Naraku and everyone on there side.

"You are the only one left, Naraku!" Ryukotsusea said.

"No. Get her!" Naraku said pointing to Ryukotsusea. 15 shades popped up and gabbed her. They were very strong. She killed 5 before they knocked her out. "So long InuYasha!" Naraku said as he took the uncontiuos Ryukotsusea and disappeared.

"Damn!" InuYasha yelled. "If he makes her beleive she's on his side we wont stand a chance." InuYasha growled again from the frustration.

"You forget she is not easily made to bleive things." Sesshoumaru said.

"How do you know?" InuYasha growled.

"I know her better than you do. We have to prepare." he said to Shouron. Shouron fell in step behing him.

"InuYasha we should go look for Ryukotsusea." Kagome said.

"Yes, if we can find her before Naraku does something then she can kill him from the inside." Miroku said. Sango bristled.

"Pervert! This is not the time. Nor is it ever!" Sango hit him on the head. She moved away and sat down next to Kagome.

"Fine, we leave now." InuYasha said. They all nodded and grabbed everything they needed. "He was heading north." InuYasha said as Kagome climbed up onto his back. They all went in the direction that Naraku had headed in.

"Lord Sesshoumaru, where is Ruyko?" Rin asked.

"She is not here. We are going to go get her. Stay here." Sesshoumaru said. Rin nodded and went back to her room.

"Do you know where Naraku has taken her?" Shouron asked.

"No, but I intend to find out." Sesshoumaru said. Shouron nodded and watched Sesshoumaru take off.

Ryukotsusea and Naraku

"Put me down!" Ryukotsusea growled.

"Fine." Naraku dropped her. "Be a good girl and stay here." Naraku said and then he left.

"LET ME OUT! NOW!" She yelled. No one came to let her out. She stood there and thought of ways to get out. After an hour Naraku came back. "What do you want with me?" she asked.

"You are going to help me." Naraku said.

"No I will not! I would rather die!" she growled and turned her back on him.

"You will." Naraku grabbed her and pulled her out. She was to weak to fight back. The poison vapors drained her energy away. He put something on her and everything went black.

"What are you going to do with her?" Kagura asked.

"She is going to do what I ask. She will not remember anything about her past. The only thing she will know is that she serves me." Naraku said with an evil grin. 'Hmm. This is not going to be good for Naraku.' Kagura thought. 'I will help her get free so she can free me. Even if the only way to escape it to be killed.'

"It will not work. She is to strong." Kagura said. Naraku hit her.

"Do not presume you can tell me what to do!" Naraku growled. Kagura glared and stood quietly behind him.

"Naraku, InuYasha and his friends and very close. What do wish me to do?" Kanna asked.

"Go stall them. After I will have my new ally go out and face them" Naraku said. They left and Naraku went to Ryukotsusea. "Wake up. You have visitors." Naraku said. Ryukotsusea opened her eyes and looked around.

"What is it...you wish me to...do?" she asked. The words were forced out. She was still trying to fight whatever it was that had control of her.

"You will go and kill InuYasha." She got up and grabbed her sword. Ryukotsusea walked slowly to the door to the outside. Suddenly pain shot up her back. She moved faster and by they time the pain ceased she saw InuYasha, Miroku, Sango, and Kagome battling Kagura and Kanna.

"Ryukotsusea!" yelled Kagome. Suddenly Ryukotsusea attacked her. "What are you doing!" Kagome had just gotten out of the way.

"She is Naraku's slave now." Kagura said. "She does everythning he wishes her to." Ryukotsusea and InuYasha were in the middle of trying to kill each other.

"If she is Naraku's slave then I have no need to hold back! Wind Scar!" Ryukotsusea easily blocked it. She stopped and dropped her sword.

"I...will...not fight...you...InuYasha." she said. "I...will not...be Naraku's...slave!" She turned to Kagura. "Tell Naraku that I will not stay under his control. I have a greater will than most." she said. Kagura didn't think she would be able to break free of Naraku's hold.

"If you are not on our side than you are on thiers, You are right you do have a greater will than most." Kagura turned and fled. Ryukotsusea suddenly turned to the west. Sesshoumaru stood there.

"What are you doing here Sesshoumaru?" InuYasha growled.

"This Sesshoumaru does not answer to a half-breed. Ryukotsusea, come." Ryukotsusea picked up her sword and went to Sesshoumaru.

"If this is not to bold may I ask where we are going?" 'She is getting better at trying to make herself less than me' Sesshoumaru thought.

"You are of equal rank with me. You can demand it of me and it is my duty to answer." Sesshoumaru said.

"I know. I think it politer to ask than demand it." she said. "Now where are we going and where is Rin?" she asked.

"Rin is where she belongs and we are going to look for Kohaku. This way when I kill Naraku he wont be able to come back." Sesshoumaru said. InuYasha growled.

"Well, if we had known that Naraku made that jewell shard revive him this wouldn't have happened again!" InuYasha yelled.

"So, this is the second time you failed." Sesshoumaru said. Kagome glared at InuYasha, sometime he could be so stupid!

"Come on InuYasha, we should follow Kagura." Kagome said before it could get worse. Knowing Ryukotsusea she would let it get to the point where she would have to take over the battle for them to stop.

"Miroku..." Sango growled.

"Sango, may I?" Ryukotsusea asked. Sango grined evilly.

"Yes, you may." Miroku didn't like the look in Sango's eyes. There was a loud 'THUMP' Ryukotsusea's fist collided with Miroku's head. A big pink bumb appeared on his head. "Serves you right, Monk." Kagome and InuYasha nodded.

"Idiot!" Shippo said. Everytime that Miroku groped Sango and get hit he would say it to rub it in. Sesshoumaru and Ryukotsusea slipped away without anyone noticing. InuYasha was going to ask Ryukotsusea but when he looked for her she was gone.

"They left!" InuYasha said.

"Did you really think Sesshoumaru would wait?" Kagome asked, she didn't sound surprised.

"Now that I think about it no." InuYasha said. Kagome rolled her eyes.

"Let's go." Kagome said. Everyone grabbed their things and left to go find Naraku.

Sesshoumaru and Ryukotsusea

They walked quietly through the woods. It was a welcome sound. When he traveled with Rin he couldn't get a moments peace. Ryukotsusea notcied this a kept quiet. She stoped and looked behind her there was someone there. She couldn't see them but she knew they were there.

"Someone is following us." she said.

"I am aware." Sesshoumaru said.

"Why didn't you tell me?" she asked.

"You need to learn to use your enhanced powers." Sesshoumaru said. She was still getting used to them. She growled lowly but didn't argue. After all he was right, she still didn't know the limits to her powers and if she didn't find them she would most likily kill herself by accident. The whole time they were being watched the more she was getting iratated. Sesshoumaru could tell.

"How long are we going to let them follow us!" she asked. Ryukotsusea was getting worse and worse by the second.

"Until we know who they are." Sesshoumaru said. He already knew who it was but wanted Ryukotsusea to find out before they did anything.

"I know you already know now tell me who it is!" she growled. Sesshoumaru was some what surprised. "I know I know you to well." she growled. When she inhaled to take a breath she caught Naraku's scent. "It Kagura." she said quietly.

"Yes." she drew Tokijin and attacked Kagura.

"I have come to speak with Ryukotsusea." she said.

"You mean you stalked us just so you could talk to me?" Ryukotsusea asked rasing a brow.

"Yes, I want to know if you will help me get free of Naraku." Kagura said.

"And why should I do that?" she asked.

"Because, I will get the jewell shard from Kohaku's back. You will never have to deal with Naraku again." It was a tempting trade.

"How do I know that you will keep your word?"

"I am the wind. I yank at my chain but can never be free for Naraku holds my heart in his hand." Kagura said. Ryukotsusea sighed.

"That said I will think about it. Come find me at sundown tomarrow I will have your answer then." Ryukotsusea was begining to sound more like Sesshoumaru.

"Where will you be?" she asked.

"I will be at the Bone Eaters Well." she said Kagura nodded and grabbed a feather from her hair. It turned into a giant feather and Kagura went back to Naraku.

"Hmm. You are starting to sound like me." Sesshoumaru said. He almost sounded playful. Ryukotsusea was a little shocked.

"Maybe I am. If I am what are you going to do about it?" she asked. Sesshoumaru rasied a brow.

"This." Sesshoumaru lifted her up and threw her over his shoulder.

"Hey! Put me down!" she yelled. No matter how much she tried she couldn't get free of his hold. She didn't know where they were going but she was going to find out. "Where are you taking me?" she asked after she had been hanging from his shoulder for five minutes.

"You will see." he said. She growled but didn't try to get loose. Ryukotsusea knew he was too strong.

"Are we there yet?" she asked.

"Yes." Sesshoumaru threw her down and she landed in a creek. "Take a bath." Sesshoumaru growled.

"Sesshoumaru..." she growled. Then she saw Sesshoumaru starting to take off his armor. "What are you doing!" she asked.

"You are not the only one who needs a bath." Ryukotsusea blushed, got up and ran down stream. She was not going to take a bath with Sesshoumaru. She walked around until she found a enclosed place where she was sure Sesshoumaru wouldn't be able to find her. She took of her soaking wet clothes and got into the water. Ryukotsusea went under and got her hair wet. She came up and felt better than she had in days. She didn't have any soap so she couldn't get all the dirt off of her. 'How am I going to dry off?' Ryukotsusea thought. 'I will have to deal without drying off.' She made sure Sesshoumaru wasn't near her and got out of the water. She put her clothes on as fast as she could. Then she went to find Sesshoumaru. Then she saw a man in black trying to hide in the shadows.

"You are the guy that was trying to hide in the shadows!" She said.

"Who are you?" he asked as his hand reached down to his sword.

"The half-demon from before. I was alone and I told you to leave before

someone came back a killed you. Remember?" she asked.

"Oh, you have changed. Do you know why?" he asked.

"No do you?"

"No, I was wondering if you did so I could have the answer. The same thing happened to me. I fell asleep near a village and woke up human. What happned to you to make you change?" he asked.

"I fell asleep at Sesshoumaru's castle and I turned into a full-blood dog demon. I have no clue why, but you better go soon because I ran away from Sesshoumaru and he will be looking for me." the man nodded and walked away. She smelled InuYasha and Sesshoumaru. 'Great, why are they fighting now?' she walked towards them.

"Sesshoumaru, what are you doing here?" InuYasha growled.

"That is none of your concern half-breed." Sesshoumau growled. Ryukotsusea stayed quiet as she came up from behind Sesshoumaru. It not was her place to it interfear.

"InuYasha come on let's go!" Kagome said as she saw Ryukotsusea come up from behind. She knew she wouldn't stop them from killing each other. She would enjoy it. That was just her nature.

"Come, InuYasha, we have more important matters to attend to. Like finding Naraku." Miroku said. InuYasha growled and let himslef be dragged away. He knew that if he didn't Kagome would say 'sit' and his face would get plowed into the dirt. Sesshoumaru turned around.

"Come, we have to go back to the castle. Rin will wonder where we are, besides we have something to discuss." Sesshoumaru grabbed Ryukotsusea by her colar and dragged her away.

"Um,...I am perfectly capable of walking. At least then I can avoid the scratches I'm getting!" she growled. Sesshoumaru let go and let her fall to the ground. "Ooomf! Hey! What's your problem!" growled and she jumped up to point a finger in Sesshoumaru's face. Sesshoumaru ignored her and kept walking. "ARGH! This is so fricking annoying!" she growled and followed Sesshoumaru. She didn't want to go anywhere with him like this. Finally she got fed up and stopped walking. Sesshoumaru stopped and looked at her.

"You are comming." he said.

"Not until you tell me what your problem is." she said. Sesshoumaru glared at her and kept walking. "Fine. I'll stay here."Ryukotsusea said. She meant it to. She would stay there until he told her. "I could get used to this." she said as she sat doen under a tree. Soon she dozed off. Without waking her Sesshoumaru picked her up and tossed her over his shoudler. It took a while for her to wake up. "Huh?" she asked. "Damn! Put me down!" she hissed.

"No." Sesshoumaru said. "You are comming with me to the castle. There has been a meeting form without my knowing." he said. "We both need to be there."

"See? That's all you needed to tell me. Now put me down and I will walk." she said. Ryukotsusea didn't realized she was up in the air.

"I can't." he said plainly.

"Yes you can." then she looked down and saw that she was in the air. "AH! I take that back don't put me down!" she said. 'Hmm. She can be very amusing.' Sesshoumaru thought. He didn't show emotion on the outside but he did on the inside. They glided through the air as fast as Sesshoumaru's cloud would go. "How long until we get there?" she asked.

"We are here." he said as his castle came into veiw.

"You know it never ceases to amaze me. Now can we land so I can stretch my legs!" she asked. "They hurt." Sesshoumaru landed and put her down. Ryukotsusea walked around and then she ran. "Ahh, much better. Now, let's go and burst through the door." she said. She was about to run but Sesshoumaru grabbed her by the collar again and threw her over his shoulder."WHAT THE HELL!" she yelled.

"You will not go running through the doors and distrupt my system." he said. Ryukotsusea growled.

"You know you are absolutly no fun. If you put me down I will walk." Ryukotsusea said. Sesshoumaru put her down. They walked to the door. Ryukotsusea was fighting the urge to run as fast as she could through the door. She followed Sesshoumaru to a pirvate room which she was never alowed to enter. "Um,...Do I come in?" she asked.

"Yes." Sesshoumaru said in a monotone. She rolled her eyes. 'Back to usual.' she thought. She didn't really want to go to a meeting with a whole bunch of people but she had no choice. "You will sit next to me." Sesshoumaru whispered. He didn't want to sound rude. "Why was this meeting called without my knowing?" Sesshoumaru asked. 'Why does he do that! Sheesh!' Ryukotsusea thought to herself.

"Milord!" Jaken cried. "We tried to send word to you but no one could find you." Jaken said. Sesshoumaru looked at him blankly.

"You are lying." He said. "You didn't want this to concern me. But if it takes place in my palace then it is my business. Now, if this ever happens again some of you might be without a head." Sesshoumaru growled. Everyone nodded. He walked to the front of the room and sat down. Ryukotsusea sat next to him as she was told to do. Jaken sat next to her. Though he didn't want to. He really wished he could excluded out of this meeting. "Why was this meeting called?"

"It was called to plan for the up comming war. While you were gone Naraku came and said that he was declaring war with the four lands." someone said. Ryukotsusea knew exacly who it was. It was one of the minor generals from the Northrn lands.

"Interesting. He must have a very big army to be delaring was on all of us." Ryukotsusea said aloud. 'This is going to be fun!' she decied.

"He said it was big enough to crush all of us in one fowl swoop!" it was Shouron who spoke next.

"There is no possible way to gather so many!" he said. Then Ryukotsusea remembered something.

"Yes, there is." she said gravley. "Kagura one of his shades can control the dead. There is also another one named Kanna, she steals the souls of the living and makes them do as Naraku tells them. If they combine the living with the dead..." she trailed off not wanting to say what she was thinking.

"Then all we would have to do is kill Kagura and Kanna." the Southrn lord said. He was said to be the wisest. Ryukotsusea could tell it was only a rumor.

"Naraku will not let them out of his sight. He wants to win this war and get the Shikon no Tama. Most of you prabally don't know this but Naraku is a half demon. He wants it for the same reason Lord Sesshoumaru's brother does. To be rid of a human heart." she heard some people gasp. It was most likely the ladies of the lands. Only Sesshoumaru didn't have a mate. It didn't suit him.

"Hmm. This will be a hard battle to win. We will all have to defend our lands with our lives!" someone said. The voice was vary familar. 'Koga!' Ryukotsusea thought. 'Wow, I didn't think he was smart wnought to be a lord.'

"Indeed. Now we have to talk plans." Sesshoumaru said. Everyone nodded. He turned to Ryukotsusea. "Have any ideas?" he asked.

"HUH! What do you mean?" she asked.

"Well it seems you know more about Naraku then any of us.So tell us how to defeat him." he said.

"I just know about him. I don't know how he will attack. But I do have an idea." she said.

"Tell us." Koga didn't reconise her. 'Thank you!' she thought.

"He will probally think that we will stand together, and then he will send out a small group of...whatever he has with him. So what we do is keep our armies in front of the land that armies they are in. Okay, let me make this eaier. If you are in the westrn troops you defend the west and so on and so forth. Get the idea?' she asked. Everyone nodded. "Good. Its all you, Sesshoumaru-sama." she said.

"This meeting is over. Prepare your troops for battle." Sesshoumaru said. Ryukotsusea sighed. 'Finally, now I don't have to talk in front of all these people again.' She stood up and walked over to the door. Shouron followed her.

"How do you know so much about Naraku?" he asked. "Even I didn't know about Naraku being a half demon."

Ryukotsusea smiled. "It helps when you study the people you are out to kill then change sides." she said. "We might want to get to our troops, who knows when Naraku will be here." Ryukotsusea walked out the door and to the barracks. Shouron followed her. The other two generals were already there.

"And where have you been!" Maratus asked. Ryukotsusea was getting sick of his additude.

"Just who do you think you are talking to?" she growled. "I don't answer to you. Got it!" Maratus nodded and then returned to his work. She turned to Shouron, "Can I kill him!" she asked.

"You're the first general, you may do what you want." he said.

"You know you are supposed to say 'no'!" Ryukotsusea said. "Um,...What do I do?" she asked.

"Go tell the troops what the plan is. They will help you, they know you are new, but they don't know you are a girl. Play it well." he said. He went to the stables and got a brown stallion. Ryukotsusea walked out to where the troops were assembled. 'This isn't going to be easy.' she thought.

"I just got out of a meeting with the lords of the other lands. We have come up with a plan for the aproching war!" she said loud enough so every one heard her. "We will stay here. The same goes for the Southrn, Norhrn, and Eastrn lands. Be ready for anything. We do not know when this threat will show itself." She dismissed herself and went back to the stables. Shouron was there with a smile on his face. "I am never doing that again." she said.

"Oh yes you are. After all you are the first general of the most powerful army ever made." he said "Now come on we have to prepare." he said.

"I thought we already were." she said stupidly.

"No this armor is just for show. Come on get on. It will be faster." Ryukotsusea hopped on the back of the horse. Shouron kicked it in the side and he horse took off. As they went Shouon told her that her armor was in her closet.

"How much can they fit in that small thing!" she asked. Shouron chuckled.

"Quite a bit. We can't go any further on horse. Now we have to walk." he said.

"Now it is my turn to carry you!" he grabbed Shouron and threw him over her shoulder like Sesshoumaru did with her.

"NO! put me down!" he cried.

"No, this is faster." Ryukotsusea spen off down the halls. Suddeny Sesshoumaru appeared in front of her. "AHH!" she stopped.

"What are you doing running in my halls and carrying Shouron over your shoulder?" he asked.

"Trying to get to our rooms faster. Since we can't ride a horse in here I volenteered to carry him." she said. "Shouron didn't exactly want to be carried but he didn't say no until after I started running." it was all the truth.

"Put me down." Shouron said. "I will walk from here." Ryukotsusea put him down and walked past Sesshoumaru. "Remind me never to let her do that again." Shouron said as he clutched his head. It felt like his world was spinning all around and he was the only one not moving. He walked down the hall after her. He had to hold onto the wall to keep from falling. Sesshoumaru went to his room and put on his armor and everything else he needed. Rin was running down the hall so she could see him.

"Sesshoumaru-sama! Sesshoumaru-sama!" she called. "I want to talk to you Sesshoumaru-sama!" she said. Sesshoumaru was a little surprised when she said 'I'. Sesshoumaru went to the door and opened it. Rin gave him a giant hug around his legs. "I missed you! I don't say 'Rin' anymore!"

"Very good Rin."he said. He said it in a monotone but she could tell that he meant it.

"Is Ruyko here?" she asked hopfully. Sesshoumaru didn't say anything.

"Yes, I sure am!" Ryukotsusea had come up the hall behind Rin.

"Ruyko!" Rin said. She jumped onto Ryukotsusea. "I missed you. I missed Sesshoumaru-sama two. Why do you both have armor on?" she asked.

"Rin," Ryukotsusea said without a hint of emotion. "There is going to be a war and we don't know when it is going to start. We have to be ready at all times." Rin nodded. "I see you don't talk in the third person anymore. Who taught you?"

"Someone Jaken-sama found. They are very good. Would you like to meet them?" she asked. Ryukotsusea didn't like this.

"Yes, I would. How about you Sesshoumaru-sama?" she asked. She could tell that Sesshoumaru didn't like the sound of this either. He nodded. Rin showed them the way. The person was in her room waiting for Rin to get back so they could finish thier lesson. The person had raven hair, dark honey brown eyes, but the thing that caught Ryukotsusea's attention imediatly was thier smell. "What is your name?" she asked the person.

"Akita, Milady." she said.

"Where were you born?" Sesshoumaru asked.

"I don't know the name but it was somewhere west of here. Many leagues away." Akita said.

"Excuse us. Rin we will be right back. I promise." Rin nodded and they got started with RIn's lesson. "Is is me or does she smell of Naraku?" Ryukotsusea asked.

"She does." Jaken was walking down the hall. He snatched up the little toad. "Where did you find this woman?' he asked. Ryukotsusea could tell he was about to kill Jaken and then go in and kill Akita.

"She came to the castle. She said that she was exprienced with children and would like to help Rin." he said.

"When did this happen?" Ryukotsusea asked. She was about to kill Jaken for being so stupid.

"The same day when war was declared." Sesshoumaru dropped the little toad and walked back into the room. Ryukotsusea was right behind him. Before she went in she kicked Jaken as hard as she could for being so stupid.

"Give me Rin." Sesshoumaru growled. Akita smiled an evil smile, one much like Ryukotsusea when she was in a very bad mood and some on told her to do something.

"Now should I do that? After all she is already dead." Kagura said. She was disguised as Akita. Something snapped. Ryukotsusea growled. It was so low Sesshoumaru almost missed it.

"You will either give us her body or I swear I will tear you apart piece by little piece." Ryukotsusea was dead serious. Sesshoumaru was almost at that point one more thing and he would not hesitate to kill Kagura.

"Can you even catch me?" she pulled out a feather from her hair and got on it. Ryukotsusea jumped onto it so fast that Kagura didn't even see her move.

"Now do you want to ask the question again?" she growled. She grabbed Kagura by her throat. "Give Rin to Sesshoumaru." Kagura did as she was told. "Now I am going to have some fun." Ryukotsusea jumped down from the feather to the ground. She dragged Kagura into the near by forrest and started tearing her apart just like she said she would. Sesshoumaru drew Tensaiga and tried to revive Rin. It wouldn't work. He guessed she had been dead too long. 'Naraku, I swear I will kill you for this.' he let out a small growl. Ryukotsusea was back by then. "W-what happened?" she asked.

"Kagura killed Rin so you killed her. Don't you remember?" he asked.

"No, when I get like that everything goes blank. So Rin is really dead?" Sesshoumaru nodded. Ryukotsusea couldn't take it any more. She cried. Sesshoumaru was surpised by her out bust. "I can't believe she killed a little girl." she cried. "I'm glad I killed Kagura." she said. Sesshoumaru just let her say what she wanted to. This was hard even for him. He didn't show it but he felt like conforting Ryukotsusea. He picked up Rin's body and layed it down on her bed. He went over to Ryukotsusea and pulled her to him. She was surprised by what Sesshoumaru did. "W-what are you doing?" she asked quietly.

"What does it look like?" he asked. There was a hint of playfulness in his voice. She smiled. Then she layed down her head. Soon she fell asleep. He picked her up and carried her to her room. He pushed the door open and layed her down. "It looks like this war has started." he said to himself. He closed the door behind him and walked back to Rin's room. He would burry her when Ryukotsusea woke up.

Ryukotsusea

"I'm back in my room." she said dully. "Sesshoumaru must have brought me back here when I fell asleep." she said. He got up and changed her clothes. "I don't think I am going to wear these again." They were blood stained. The smell made Ryukotsusea want to gag. She resisted the urge. She followed Sesshoumaru's scent back to Rin's room. He had left. Then she followed it to his room. She knocked. "Sesshoumaru-sama?" no answer. "I guess he's not in there." she said. "I'll go find Shouron. He might know where Sesshoumaru is." She tried to fins his smell. But it was like he never existed. She went outside and to the stables. She looked for the brown stallion that he had rode earlier. All she smelled was horse. "Something odd is going on here." she said. Ryukotsusea walked around the grounds. She didn't see anybody. "Yeah, this is starting to freak me out." Ryukotsusea walked around somemore. Soon she caught Sesshoumaru's scent. He was near. "Why are we the only ones here?" she asked herself. He was inside and she didn't really want to jump into any windows so she walked back to the door she came out of. It was going to be a long walk. "Why should I walk?" she asked. She started running. She seem slower the ususal. Ryukotsusea shrugged it off and kept running. Soon Ryukotsusea saw Sesshoumaru. "Sesshoumaru-sama!" she called. He didn't look up. She ran up to him. He was kneeling over something. When she looked she realized it was her. "What the hell!" she yelled. Sesshoumaru didn't hear her. She went up to herself. Her skin was ice cold.

Ryukotsusea woke with a start. She must have screamed because Sesshoumaru ran in her door.

"What happened?" he asked. She didn't notcie but he was truly concerened.

"I had a nightmare." she was shivering. Ryukotsusea pulled her blanket up over herself. He walked over and sat down on her bed.

"About what?" he wanted to know if it was caused by Naraku. If it was he would certainly die next time they saw each other.

"I was looking for you but I couldn't find you. Shouron was gone to. It was like only you and m existed. I went outside to see if you were there. I caught your scent and followed it. When I found you I tried to talk to you but you couldn't hear me. You were kneeling over something, so I went to see what it was." she stopped talking. Ryukotsusea took a deep breath. "The thing you were kneeling over was my dead body." she said.
