Hi everybody really sorry for taking so long writing this thing. Now I've sort of figured out where I was going with this so hopefully I'll be able to write more. Hope you enjoy it.

10. Contest of Strength

It had been almost a week now that Inuneesan had been held captive in that ominous place and she was miraculously surprised that her luck was holding out. Her captives had no idea about the half dog demon girl's disability and did not suspect a thing of the apparently sweet girl. The boy Kohaku who had been instructed to keep and eye on her seemed different from the other residents of the castle. At times who could be quite sweet and friendly though he mentioned something about losing his memory. At other times however he changed becoming a mindless puppet to the demons that lurked in the shadowy depths. It was one of these zombie-like states that the boy was in today as guided her through the dark catacombs to the chambers where that despicable demon Naraku resided.

What the hell does he want me for now? Inuneesan asked herself, Oh no maybe they've found out my secret.

"Come over here girl," the sinister demon ordered.

Somehow his scent was masked and though the hanyou could hear his voice she couldn't figure out exactly where Naraku was.

"Over where?" She questioned shyly.

""Right here girl it shouldn't be too difficult for you to walk a few steps," he replied impatience in his cruel voice.

Oh great now what am I supposed to do? Inuneesan asked herself not too pleased with the corner Naraku had backed her into.

The evil demon approached the girl step by step until he stood right in front of her. Ceasing her chin in his icy grip his gaze pierced into the girl's unseeing eyes.

"Ah know I see you're blind half breed," Naraku gloated with an evil laugh, "Well sight or no sight you will still do what I want."

Great he found out surprising I'm not dead yet, Inuneesan thought as she said, "Yeah right like I'm ever going to help you."

As the female hanyou struggled the demon manically laughed humoured by her defiance.

"Oh you'll help me wench," he replied sinisterly as a bright shard appeared in his other hand the magical object inching towards Inuneesan's head.

"Miroku I don't know if this plan of yours is so great won't Naraku suspect it's a trap?" Inuyasha questioned as the gang traveled across the feudal era.

"Even if he does suspect us we're still going to get Inuneesan and Kohaku back from him," Sango replied feeling worry towards her own lost sibling.

"Yeah cheer up Inuyasha it'll all turn out okay in the end you'll see," Kagome reassured.

"Yes now stop worrying and let's set up camp," Miroku suggested making yet another move on Sango's ass.

With a loud smack Sango yelled, "Keep your filthy hands off me you lecherous monk!"

They built up a fire and gathered around for the time being taking a pause from their quest.

Just then Kagome began to sense an approaching jewel shard as a cyclone of wind appeared at the edge of the fire.

"Hey Kagome, ready to dump that mangy mutt yet," a cocky wolf asked who had jumped out of the cyclone.

"Oh hi Koga, no Inuyasha and the rest of us are still searching for the shards," the teenaged girl replied as the wolf demon held her hand in his.

With a growl Inuyasha stepped between the wolf and Kagome and growled, "You keep your paws off her you damn wolf."

"And I'd suppose a beautiful girl such as Kagome would associate herself with a mangy mutt like you," Koga retorted.

"Shut up another word and your dead."

"What can you do to me you mutt faced half breed."

"Why don't you put your claws where your mouth is and hand over your jewel fragments," Inuyasha demanded finally going over the edge with the annoying wolf.

The two canines began to fight, Inuyasha swinging his Tetsuiga around as Koga dodged the clumsy blows with his agile speed. Quite a few times the dog came close to putting an end to the full blooded demon but lucky for Koga he narrowly escaped keeping his head. Inuyasha's four companions looked on Kagome not wanting either of the men to get hurt. The girl was about to end the fight with the commanding word to put Inuyasha in his place when Miroku held her back.

"This has gone on long enough Kagome these two must settle their differences without interference from you," the monk calmly said and with a sigh the girl settled to watch the remainder of the fight.

It was a test of power but the humans were glad that it only lasted a few more moments as Inuyasha had somehow pinned Koga to the ground with the point of Tetsuiga resting at the wolf's throat.

Using his claws to remove the tiny fragments from Koga's legs the winner of the battle growled, "Kagome is mine and you will stay away from her got it wolf."

With a growl Koga replied, "She deserves better than you Kagome come back with me and be my woman."

"I said that you will stay away from her now shut up," Inuyasha barked filled with jealousy and rage.

"No Koga I'm staying here with Inuyasha. I don't share the feelings you have for me."

Turned down by the woman he loved Koga pulled his wounded body off of the ground and ran from the camp he was ashamed and fled with his tail between his legs.

"Well that takes care of that and now we have two more jewel shards to add to our collection," Inuyasha commented smugly.

"Yes and now I suggest we turn in so we can have a fresh start in the morning," the monk suggested passing off into sleep.

The others fell asleep as well save Kagome who stayed up amazed by Inuyasha ordering Koga to stay away from her.

"Kagome," Shippo's voice asked as he crawled out of his hiding place, "Did you say something to Inuyasha he was acting strange, stranger than he usually does with Koga around?"

"I may have mentioned something but Inuyasha wants to keep things quite for now alright," Kagome confessed.

Shippo taking the hint crawled off and he too fell asleep leaving Kagome alone in the dark to ponder how the two hot headed canines had fought for her.

Back in the depths of that spooky floating castle the young female hanyou fought the evil demon with all her might. Something inside told her that she did not want that gleaming ray of light making contact with her skin.

"Do not fight it girl you will join me and kill your friends," Naraku mocked her struggles with a sinister laugh.

"NEVER," the girl cried as the glowing jewel inched nearer and nearer to her skull.

There was nothing that Inuneesan could do now and the wicked demon embedded the shard into the flesh of the girl's forehead. Darkness swept over the girls pale eyes and she felt cold and uncaring as she heard the demon's evil laugh pierce through her mind.

"Now Inuneesan we are going to play a little game with your brother's mind and I need you to kill the priestess Kikyo for me," he commanded.

"Yes Master," Inuneesan answered turning and leaving the room.

The half demon's powers had been intensified and now she felt as if this place was like her home as she exited the old castle to do Naraku's bidding. Inuyasha's sister was now under the power of the Shikon Jewel and under Naraku's spell.

Well there you have it finally another chapter done. Review and tell me what you all think of this so far.
