Inu yasha and the gang walked along the narrow country road to Kaede's village.
"Huh?" Kagome stopped suddenly causing Sango to run into her.
"Kagome? Why did you stop?"
"I sense a sacred jewel shard and it coming straight for us" said Kagome looking in the direction of the feeling.
"Can you feel which direction it's coming from Kagome?" asked Inu yasha who was already preparing for battle by drawing tetsaiga.
"I think it's that way" she said pointing behind them.
From where they were they couldn't see anything but trees. They ran into a clearing where they could clearly see anything that was coming in any direction.
"It's here," said Inu yasha quietly, "I can smell a demon."
Suddenly Kagome spotted a ray of light coming from the trees.
"Whoa! Did you guy's see that light?" exclaimed Kagome.
"Huh?" asked Sango looking around the clearing.
"I don't see any light." Said Miroku.
"What? Well you see it don't you Inu yasha?"
But it seemed that Inu yasha wasn't paying attention. He was kneeling on the ground, head bowed, and arms resting on his knees just laying there.
"Inu yasha?" said Kagome as she walked over to him.
He didn't move.
"Inu yasha?" repeated Kagome laying her hand gently on his back.
As she did so Inu yasha's head snapped up. As Kagome looked into his eyes she saw that they were narrowed and clouded over.
'Kill her!' yelled a voice in Inu yasha's head.
'No!' Inu yasha used all his strength to break free from her grip, but her hold was stronger.
Inu yasha was painfully aware that even though his mind was struggling his body still moved against his will. And before he knew what he had done, Inu yasha had slashed Kagome on the shoulder.
"Kagome!" yelled Sango, Miroku, and Shippo at the same time as they ran to her side.
"Kagome? Wh-what happened?" asked a dazed Inu yasha.
Inu yasha started to head toward the spot were Sango, Miroku and Shippo surrounded Kagome.
"No! You can't come near Kagome!" yelled Miroku as Inu yasha approached the group.
"What!" exclaimed Inu yasha.
"Miroku, I don't think Inu yasha remembers what he did" said Kagome as kindly as she could through the pain.
"It's okay Miroku let him pass, let him see what he did to Kagome."Said sango with a glare in Inu yasha's direction.
Miroku said nothing more as Inu yasha approached Kagome and knelt down beside her. Inu yasha raised his hand and made to touch her arm, but kagome flinched before he even touched her. Inu yasha's hand dropped to his side.
"I did this?" Asked Inu yasha quietly.
Kagome nodded a stiff nod.
"But I don't remember…. Why would I do this?" Inu yasha tried to sort these things out, but was getting no were.
"I don't know Inu yasha can you remember anything?" asked Kagome as kindly through the pain.
"Sort of it was weird, it felt like someone was controlling me, not my mind, just my body." Explained Inu yasha.
"Inu yasha, I-"
"No, don't say it Kagome!" said Inu yasha.
"But Inu yasha-"
"Kagome, I'm so sorry"
"It's okay, it's-"
"I think someone was trying to control me from behind the trees I heard a voice in my head that was telling me to do…what it was that I did." Said Inu yasha quickly not wanting to hear what Kagome was going to say.
All of them looked back behind them to the back of the clearing.
'Kill her now!' screamed Kila in Inu yasha's head.
"AUGH!" yelled Inu yasha.
"Inu yasha?" said Kagome with a look of both fear and concern.
"Miroku! Sango! Take Kagome and run! It's here again! Trying to take control over my body! Hurry and get out of here now! If I try to follow you, do everything in your power to stop me from hurting her again".
"Okay," said Miroku.
They ran down the lane to Kaede's village to get Kagome"s arm treated. Kagome ran as fast as she could while holding the wound on her upper arm. Shippo ran along side her trying to comfort her any way he could.
So how is my story? I've been trying to make the chapters longer. Let me know how it is. (I've only got one review so far)
