Chapter 2:

Cold dampness and the smell of sulfur burned at the hanyous sensitive nose as he slowly regained consciousness.

'Where am I?' he wondered as he opened his heavy eye lids and woozily surveyed his surroundings. Not that that did any good of course. The room was pitch black, if you would call it a room. Inuyasha assumed it to be one from the hard cool wall he leaned against.

The hanyou sighed lightly, and moved his hand so to massage his temples. His hands, however did not make it anywhere near his head when the clatter of chains met his ears. He froze in place. 'What happened to me?' he wondered as panic began to seize him. He remembered falling down the cliff the first time. And he made it back up only to be dragged down again by vines. The second time, he was sure that he would die, and he probably would have if he hadn't been suddenly pulled into a cave and struggled against by the same thorny vines that got around his foot earlier. He wasn't sure why, but that was all he could remember, maybe poison from the plant's thorns had gotten inside of him, because some how he must have passed out.

This still did not explain how he ever managed to get into this position. Why was he in shackles? Where was his captor? It didn't make sense.

"Ah, I see that you are awake."

That voice…

"I hope that you have been comfortable?"

It's cold as ice…

Inuyasha winced knowing that he was about to find out. "What do you want with me, wench!"

If Inuyasha could see through the dark, he would have seen a much taken aback demon, but she shook it off easily and chuckled. Inuyasha, though cautious, was annoyed.

"My." She said in amusement "Aren't you the feisty one. Careful now I might just let you play with my pets outside, but I see they had already done a number on you."

"Keh. Just tell me what you want."

"You aren't supposed to be here. In actual fact, the purpose of my pets is to catch potential food that aimlessly walks off the cliff." She replied.

"Well," said Inuyasha Struggling to a stand. "You ain't eating me."

"I don't eat youkai. Only humans and any other poor creatures that are going to die anyway from the fall. Actually, after hundreds of hears I never had this predicament before. Most youkai are smarter then to walk off a cliff."

Inuyasha growled. "Then just let me go."

"Hmm… But it has been so long since I had a visitor."

"My friends are worried NOW. So just let me go." He grumbled.

"Oh I know what we can do."

"…What?"

"I'll let you go in exchange for your fire rat kimono."

"What if I say no?"

"Then we can work something else out. But it won't be nearly as easy."

"What are you going on about!" He all but barked at whatever she was. "It's so hellish dark down here I can't even see the one I'm talking to!"

"Oh, my apologies." As she spoke these words a flame immerged in the hand of a girl who looked to be about twenty five. She had long black hair, and wore a navy coloured kimono with ancient style armor over it. She looked like any other human warrior woman except for her eyes, which were of no colour and the extra pair of limbs she bore. She was a spider Youkai. "Well, did you make your decisions yet?"

"Yes I have. My kimono was a gift from my parents, and I cannot part with it."

The woman took a step toward Inuyasha, then another. "Well now. You certainly are a sentimental critter. Guess we'll have to do this the hard way. I won't take no for an answer, but don't worry. You'll get to see your friends again." She took another step towards Inuyasha, until she was right in front of his face. The Hanyou was terrified, and wondered if she still might take the fire rat fur instead of what it was she had in mind.
The spider youkai took a clawed finger and traced a path of blood from his jaw line, down to his neck. Suddenly, before Inuyasha knew what was happening, She sunk her teeth into his neck.

The boy hissed in pain, and found himself unable to move. All he could do was let out a sigh as his weight gave way and he slumped back down to the floor. The spider youkai pulled away quickly in horror. "You're not a youkai. You're a Hanyou! Why didn't you say so?"

Inuyasha's paled face, and glazed over eyes was enough to infuriate her more. After kicking him a couple times, she stomped out of the chamber muttering curses to herself. Her Father was going to give her hell for this.

TBC

That's intense isn't it! Buahaha! Poor Inu… If you guys are confused, Ill explain in coming chapters. But for now, I can say that the demon wasn't trying to kill him, but she over did her venom dosage by assuming he was full youkai, when less would have worked better. I think this spider demon has some majour issues --;;

Review!
