"My, my, what have we here? A room full of little rich hamsters I see!" a deep voice said.
Kagome held onto Bankotsu's shoulders while his arms wrapped around her waist protectively.
The lights brightened once more and in the middle of the dance floor was Lady Kisa and Lady Izayoi being held in a long haired man's arms. His raven black hair ran down to his knees and his crimson eyes held no warmth, instead, it held darkness and hatred.
"Fuck" Inuyasha quietly cursed. Kikyo held onto his arm while looking petrified, like a deer in headlights.
"Who the hell is he?" Yusuke asked, going for his dagger in his pant leg. "That is Naraku, the evilest being ever born on this planet." Keiko hissed.
"Hiei and I have heard of this man. He kills merciless doesn't he?" Kurama asked, pulling a rose out of his hair. Botan nodded.
"So how have you been Kagome? It's been a long time hasn't it, ne?" Naraku asked with a sinister smile. "Let go of Lady Kisa and Lady Izayoi right now Naraku." Kagome hissed, letting go of Bankotsu slightly. "Be careful." She heard him whisper.
"Not until you give up my desire, and then you can get these two precious women!" Naraku said and cackled. Then a hole developed under Naraku and all three of them fell through and disappeared.
"MOTHER!" Kagome and Kikyo both screamed as they raced towards the middle of the floor. Tears started to stream down their faces. "Mom…come back…" Kikyo whispered as she tried to comfort herself and Kagome.
"Izayoi…" Inutaisho whispered. He fled the ballroom out into the garden, and everybody heard the tragic howl of a heartbroken dog demon.

"Are they okay?" Inuyasha asked the doctor as she closed the door to Kikyo's room. The doctor shook her head.
The doctor was at least in her 50's now. She had shaggy grey-black hair and her skin not all that wrinkly. She looked old on the outside but her eyes shown that she still held spirit within her.
"The Lady Kikyo is sleeping now but you can go watch over her sire." The doctor said softly. "And Kagome?" he asked.
"She's not doing very good sire. Lord Hiei is with Lady Kagome right now." The doctor said and smiled gently. "He won't leave her side at all. He may be the forbidden child but a faithful man he is."
Inuyasha smiled and thanked the old doctor before entering Kikyo's room. He thought about what the old doctor had said about Kagome and Hiei. 'Hm…I wonder what she's trying to imply there...'
"Kikyo, get up. I know you're awake." Inuyasha said and sat on the edge of Kikyo's bed.
The black haired beauty sat up with disheveled hair and dark bags under her eyes. "Oh Inuyasha…" she mumbled. Tears started to form at the edge of her eyes. Her husband wiped them away before they fell.
"Don't worry, we'll find them no matter what it takes." Inuyasha said and smiled gently.
Kikyo sniffed gently. "But still…Kagome's probably taking this harder then me. I'm worried about her…"
"Why?"
"Because she doesn't have anyone to lean on. I have you but she has no one. I'm scared Inuyasha. And it's almost her birthday." Kikyo said and tears formed at her eyes once more.
"She has Miroku and Sango." Inuyasha questioned. His wife shook her head.
"Maybe…but she needs someone who her heart can lean on." She said. Inuyasha smirked. Kikyo looked at him puzzled. He told her what the old doctor had told him.
Kikyo smiled softly at that as well as Inuyasha, happy that he made his wife smile.
'Wait a second…' "Is she implying I'm not faithful!" Inuyasha asked with his mouth open.
Oh boy…he's got a lot to learn.
Kikyo laughed quietly. "Of course not love…"

He sat there, staring at his master. Her raven hair spread around her like a black halo for the perfect angel. Heavy bags could be seen under her eyes and tear streaks were still found along her ivory pale skin.
His eyes softened at seeing her helpless figure underneath the blanket. 'I wish I could help you Kagome. I really wish I could.'
He brushed her hair out of her face but then suddenly pulling away like he was burnt. "I'll do everything I can for you my lady." He said and left the room quietly.
He walked through the halls staring at the portraits of the past kings and queens.
He stopped when he came upon a picture with four people.
'That must be King Higurashi…' he thought.
"That's the late Lord Higurashi. He was a great man to serve under." Hiei turned around to see the old doctor that treated Kagome and Kikyo.
"How'd he pass away?"
The doctor Kaede smiled.
"He had a deadly disease that was slowly eating at him from the inside. We don't know how or even when he got it. All we know is that it killed him and it wasn't contagious. He was a kind man, king or not. Some of the people from this kingdom's council still mourn his death even though it's been nearly 5 years."
Hiei looked back up at the king and the kindness that shown through his eyes.
"Come, we must go eat. Dinner is nearing." Hiei turned from the picture and followed Kaede to the dining room.

Okay…I bet that chapter wasn't even worth the wait but at least I updated right? I'll try and get the next chapter out soon so please wait til then alright?
Oh yeah, I was talking about a new story before. Um…I haven't really made a summary yet but it's going to be about pirates since I just saw Pirates of the Caribbean 2. Um….here's the best come-up summary I can make at the moment:
Kagome is a pirate. Inuyasha is a prince. His family is after her head. She's after his jewels. But when worst comes to worst and it's the end of the world, they're forced to work together. And at the end of the road is something they never expected.
Does it sound okay? Either way, review please?
