"Wow, what is this place?"
Sango said astonished as they walked into a room with three tunnels and steam was coming out of each tunnel.
"Each of the tunnels lead to a different hot spring, choose which one you want,"
Akeria said kindly explaining. Kagome went to the middle one, and Sango went to the one on the left, so Akeria went to the one on the right.
"Oh wow this is huge,"
Kagome said as she stared at the hot spring. It was an extremely large room with torches hanging on the walls for light, and the hot spring was about twice the size of a city pool. Off in the corner they're stood a small table with towels and soap. Kagome grabbed a towel and a bar of soap, and quickly admired the place. She slipped out of her cloths and jumped into the water.
"She's such a show off,"
Sango said to herself before grabbing a towel and bar of soap as well. She quickly jumped in and about fell asleep because of oh how relaxing the water was.
"Sometimes I wish the pack were still here,"
Akeria said sighing.
"I know it's been about five years now but I still miss them,"
Akeria said slipping her clothes off.
"Hey kid have you seen Miroku lately?"
Inuyasha said walking back inside the cave.
"Don't call me a kid, and no I haven't seen the monk anywhere,"
Makuru said angrily.
"Oh well he'll show up later,"
Inuyasha said sitting by the fire.
Little did Akeria know Miroku had followed her to the hot spring. He carefully snuck behind a nearby rock and spied on her. She slipped off her clothes and dove to the bottom or the water and grabbed some rocks. She set the rocks on the side of the bank and went back to relaxing. She swam a couple of laps around the hot spring before she sensed someone watching her. She swam back to the rocks and threw a couple at some of the rock piles in the cave. Miroku barely dogged a rock that came flying toward him but still managed to stay hidden.
"I guess it was just my imagination,"
Akeria said before washing her hair with some shampoo she brought with her. When she was almost done she heard a low growl come from behind a rock pile and saw Miroku jump out from behind it. Right behind him was a snow white wolf chasing him around the cave. Akeria hid just beneath the water with only her head up so she could breath. Miroku lost his balance and fell into the water. The wolf ran back behind its rock pile and let out another warning growl.
"PERVET, GET OUT OF HERE"
Akeria screamed swimming to a large rock in the center of the spring to hid behind. Miroku scrambled out of the water. As he was leaving the wolf came out of its hiding spot and chased him out. Sango and Kagome had already finished their bath and were sitting by the fire.
"I wonder where Akeria is,"
Kagome said sounding worried.
"I'm going to go look for her,"
Kagome said walking back to the hot springs. Akeria had finished up and got dressed. She walked over to the rock and petted the wolf on the head as she whispered
"Thanks Semalia".
Akeria hurried out and headed back to the main part of the cave.
"There you are I was just looking for you"
Kagome said surprising Akeria.
"Oh hi Kagome, so did you enjoy the hot spring"
The guys marveled at the Hot Springs before jumping in themselves. After a while everyone had a bath and was setting down to bed.
There were only four beds and eight people so that meant they had to share a bed. Inuyasha and Kagome shared a bed. Sango, Shippo, and Kirara shared a bed. Makuru decide to sleep in a different room so Miroku got his own bed and Akeria took her bed up on a ledge. After a while Kagome fell asleep with Inuyasha arms wrapped around her, and Sango fell asleep with Shippo and Kirara curled up on the pillow Miroku fell asleep shortly after Sango and Akeria, after making sure everyone was asleep fell asleep herself.
Akeria woke up before the sun and headed outside Somehow the snow was gone and the temperature had returned to normal.
"I don't know what's happening but I'm going to figure out"
Akeria said. Akeria decided to run back inside and change into a light green kimono. As Akeria was brushing her hair a pair of hands grabbed her from behind. One arm was rapped around her body and the other hand was covering her mouth. Akeria began to thrash around but unfortunately she didn't get free. When she settled down the figure spun her around.
The figure's cold touch made her shiver all over and she was scared to see who or what the figure was. When she gathered up enough courage to look at the figure's face she saw no other than Naraku. Before Akeria knew it he forced her into a kiss. Akeria jerked away but Naraku covered her mouth so she couldn't scream. Naraku spun her back around and leaned his head on her shoulder. He began to dig his claws in to her left side just enough to barely make it bleed.
"I told you"
he hissed into her ear,
"That I would get you back one way or another"
Akeria began to cry as he dug his claws deeper into her side.
"If it means I have to take you by force that is what I will do"
he coldly hissed into her ear
"You will be my wife like you promised"
Naraku said before kissing her neck. Akeria tried to jerk away but he kept digging his claws deeper and deeper every time she moved. Akeria noticed her legs were free so she did the only thing she knew possible and slammed her foot down on his. Naraku let her go and she ran as far away from him as she could. Akeria knew that one of the other might be awake so she screamed at the top of her lungs praying someone would hear her.
"Damm arrogant little whence"
Naraku hissed before disappearing into the darkness. Before she knew it she passed out of blood loss.
When she woke up she saw the others were staring at her.
"What"
she said confused. Akeria went to sit up and a wrenching pain came from her side. Akeria place her hand on her side and it began to glow blue for a moment before the wound was totally healed.
"How did you do that?"
Sango said astonished.
"I learned how to do it when I was real young"
she said as she ripped away the bandages.
"Who did this to you"
Miroku said sounding really worried. Naraku's words echoed in her head as she tried to remember.
"Naraku"
Akeria said under her breath
"He did this to me".
"Naraku"!
The group said in unison.
"I don't want to talk about it"
Akeria said before they could say anything. Just than the cave began to rumble and a hideous voice echoed throughout it.
i hope you enjoyed this much better than the last one like i said I'm so sorry
