disclaimer: I do NOT own Inuyasha

Recap: Kagome was there.

now:

"Lets begin." she stated pulling out a bow and arrows. She fired at Inuyasha. He dodged it.

"Kagome, stop! You've gotta wake up!" he yelled. She stared at him with no emotion, but inside her head was a different story. Naraku didn't take her memories again. No, this time he forced her to be awake but unable to break his control on her.

'Kill him.' he told her (in her head)

'No please!' she begged.

'hmhmhmhmhmhmhm. Kill him.'

'Please don't make me kill him, you..."

Naraku didn't comment, he just forced her to say,

"Inuyasha, fight or die." Then he made her shoot another arrow at him.

"Kagome snap out of it! Damn it!" he yelled, running towards her. She was trying to, she really was aware of everything going on, but despite all her efforts she couldn't regain control of her body.

As much as she tried not to she arched another arrow. Sango threw her Hiraikotsu at her, (not her the bow) and broke her bow in two making it virtually worthless. Then Narakus voice came out of Kagome's mouth,

"Damn Wench!" he hissed.

"Naraku you, you," Sango began.

"BASTARD!" Inuyasha finished for her.

"Now, now Inuyasha. She came to me of her own free will and demanded me to speak with her."

"Why should we believe you?" Miroku asked. "Why would Kagome do that?"

"How should I know all humans are weak and stupid." That did it. Kagome started glowing a dark pink light purple color. Then a purifying arrow shot her in the leg. Everyone saw that it was Kikyo who shot the arrow.

"Kikyo, what the heck are you doing?" Sango demanded.

Inuyasha ran to Kagome who ws screaming.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

INUYASHA!" she screamed before Kagura and Kanna stepped in front of her. Kagura did her dance of the dragon to distract them while she and Kanna took Kagome back to Naraku.

"After they left Inuyasha ran to Kikyo and shouted,

"What the hell did you do?"

"I was trying to help the girl out."

"By shooting her!"

"I was trying to purify the shard within her without killing her. If I were to have shot directly at the shard she would have died." Kikyo informed him.

"So are you going to help us?" Inuyasha asked.

"If I am permitted I would like to help save the one who loves you more than I could ever hope to." she said with a small smile.

"I've realized now, I'm dead. We can have half the love for you that that girls does." she paused. "I'm sure you know what I mean."

"Inuyasha!" Sango yelled running over to him.

"What happened?"

"Kikyo tried to purify the shard in Kagome."

"I think I finally understand how Naraku's controlling her." Miroku stated.

"Duh, with the jewel shard." Inuyasha said.

"No. It would take more than a single shard to control her. her powers have even surpassed my own." Kikyo said.

"What?"

"Yes, he is controlling her because she can't purify the shard with her, because he is tainting the shard by making her hate. She hates Naraku for controlling her, for coming after us, killing innocent people, and other things we could probably only imagine."

"Is there any way to save her?" Sango asked.

"I don't know."

"Well, we can't just give up!"

"Inuyasha's right we've got to find Kagome and get her back."

(W/ Naraku)

"STUPID WENCH!" Naraku yelled throwing everything around the castle and breaking things. Kagome was siting there still under Narakus control. Inside she was shaking in fear. He stormed over to her and screamed,

"How could you be so stupid to let yourself get shot?" He slapped her hard across the face. she went flying across the room.

"Naraku," Kagura began, "you should calm down, you'll kill the girl. Then she'd be no fun."

Naraku glared at Kagura then smirked.

"Take her to her room." He ordered.

She went over and picked up Kagome. And half dragged her to the room they shared. Once there she said,

"Kagome, my friend, you must be careful. Narakus a bastard but you can't let the shard in you become too tainted or we'll never be free."

"I'm sorry Kagura-chan. But I couldn't bear it. He's going to make me kill him." she sobbed.

"Ssshhhhhhh...Naraku'll hear you."

"Sorry." she whispered.

"Here Kagome-chan. I've got something for you." Kagura handed her a dagger.

"never let Naraku see it."

"Thank you Kagura-chan. Does Kanna know?"

"No, she won't ignore Naraku. She may not show it but she values her life above all things. She's willing to stay Narakus slave just so she'll stay alive."

"I'd rather die."

"Don't think that. Try your best not to hate Naraku, okay I know that's impossible, but I don't want my only friend to become a monster that Naraku controls." She smiled.

"Oh, here you've got a welt on you face." Kagura got an herbal medicine out and gave it to Kagome.

"Arigato." she said.

After Kagome put the herbs on her face the welt disappeared.

"Wow!"

"I thought you might say that. You can't tell anyone about his though. I don't want Naraku to get his hands on it."

"Not again."

"What?"

"I'm being summoned."

"Oh."

"He wants you too."

They walked together to face Naraku.

"Miko go and capture the brat named, Rin from Sesshomaru."

Once Kagome left Kagura stated.

"Naraku, the girls leg isn't even healed yet. How will she get passed Sesshomaru?"

"She won't."

"So your sending her to her death!"

"Who do you think your talking to? Remember I hold your heart. She shold've finished Inuyasha off."

Kagura was mad.

'Nieghther Kagome nor I have the power to face Lord Sesshomaru.' she thought, 'Damn that Naraku!'
