Naraku was standing behind the half demon with a smirk spreading across his face. He was going to put his plan into action!
He started to chuckle and then it turned into a cold hearted laugh. InuYasha unsheathed tesuiga and quickly turned his body around and
swung his blade... Naraku jumped backwards, dodging the sword.
He outstretched his arm to show that he hadn't come for a fight. InuYasha embeded tesuiga into the ground and leaned against the large sword, crossing his arms over his chest.
Naraku removed his baboon mask and threw it carelessly to the ground. His long hair settled around his face and he spoke...
"I have heard that you hit the priestess... Kagome?"
"I don't blame you for loathing her... she did after all say that Kikyo belongs in hell...
"Hn..." InuYasha hn'ed.
"I know you don't want to believe that deep down inside you hate Kagome..." Started Naraku.
"She did leave you for another man... did she not?"
"Whats it to you!" Said an angry InuYasha.
"You want her dead as much as I do..." Laughed Naraku.
"I can tell that your demon half wants to come out and kill!"
InuYasha turned away... He could feel his demon blood coursing through his veins. InuYasha tried to fight it... but it was too strong for
him to handle, slowly his eyes changed from gold to crimson red. His claws grew much longer and all he could think about was killing.
Not just anyone but Kagome...

Bankotsu and the miko were still walking, they were now travelling through a forest. Kagome had her arm wrapped around Bankotu's, this made him blush. He loved spending time with Kagome, especially alone. Bankotsu stopped and looked around the forest...
"Theres something else beside us in this forest." Explained Bankotsu gently pushing Kagome behind him, so he could protect her.
Bankotsu took out his banryuu and readied himself. Out of no where appeared Naraku standing his ground. Kagome's eyes widened and and she looked away. Bankotsu noticed that she was uncomfortable and told her something before fighting.
"Go hide behind a tree or a bush..." Ordered the mercenary.
"But what if..." She started.
"Go now Kagome! don't worry I'll be coming back to you..." Bankotsu said.
The miko nodded her head and gave him a hug before running behind a large tree. She sat on the dirt ground when a flash of red and white flew past her. Kagome didn't have her bow and arrows, she closed her eyes shut.
Kagome felt pressure being applied to neck and then she began to gasp for breath... Her vision had become blury but she knew who was chocking her. Tears fell from her eyes and she managed to spit out what she was trying to say.
"In... InuYasha..."
All she heard was cruel laughter and the grip around her neck tighten... Kagome could feel herself start to slip away dur to the lack of air.
She then felt a rush of cool air as InuYasha held her in his grip and ran towards Naraku and Bankotsu.
The handsome mercenary threw attacks at Naraku from every angle... He heard Naraku chuckle and look at something behind him.
Bankotsu quickly spun around and saw the mutt face strangeling Kagome!
"Too bad Kagome wont be coming back to you..." Laughed InuYasha while leying the miko on the ground and tightened the grip more.
Bankotsu ran to Kagome and kicked him off her. She began to breath heavily and cough up blood.
"Kagome are you okay?" Asked Bankotsu with worry flooding his words.
"I'll be... cough, fine..." She faintly answered.
Bankotsu got up and began to attack InuYasha. He needed to protect Kagome, but he had to fight two people at the same time!
Kagome slowly rose from the ground and began to walk over to a tree. Naraku saw the miko stummble as she walked to her destination.
He used one of his long slimy tenticles and hit her from behind... She smashed into a tree and pain erupted from every part of her body.
Kagome winced in pain and let herself fall the ground. Naraku placed his foot on her back and pushed down on it... He raised a tenticle and went to strike her... Something repelled his tenticle and it fell off onto the dirt. Bankotsu used his banryuu to cut off the tenticle.
"Don't touch Kagome!" Shouted a pissed of mercenary.
Naraku laughed and turned around towards InuYasha who was now lying on the ground with a few cuts here and there.
"I will be back for you wench..."
And he disappeared into the night, Bankotsu turned Kagome onto her back. She winced in pain and wearily opened one eye.
Bankotsu's face was clouded with worry as he looked at the miko.
InuYasha had gotten up and was running towards Bankotsu. Kagome noticed that what he was going to do, she opened her mouth and...
"Sit..."
Before she closed her eyes and fell unconcious... InuYasha met the dirt and he lifted his face from the ground. InuYasha had changed back
to a half demon, he looked at Bankotsu and then at Kagome.
His ears went flat against his head and he neared them...
"Ka... Kagome..." InuYasha whispered.
"Get away from her!" Demanded Bankotsu.
"I need to talk to her!" Yelled InuYasha curling and uncurling his fists.
The mercenary picked Kagome up bridal style and walked away, leaving InuYasha feeling guilty... When he left, InuYasha punched a tree trunk, making a fist imprint into the trunk.
"How could I let Naraku manipulate me like that!" Thought InuYasha, now turning around and walking back to the village.
He wondered if he had hurt Kagome, when he was transformed...? InuYasha noticed that he had gotten injured, nothing serious... He would be able to heal by himself in no time... Though nothing could heal his broken heart...
