Konnichiwa! I'm so sorry it took so long for me to update! But here it is...short chapter...but good one nonetheless. I think Naraku and Kagome are gonna get freaky in the next chapter. Lol. You knew that was going to happen. But that's all I'm giving away! MUAHAHAHAHA! Please don't hurt me. Anyhoo...I'm leaving to go to Kentucky to visit my family that I haven't seen in nine years with my mom. We're going in my new car, so I'll be driving a lot of the way. I'm sooo excited. And this time, I actually have a laptop to watch DVD's on, so I'm sure that when I'm not driving, I won't get bored. Lol. Oh, and...for those of you who like Japanese History and stuff like that, especially geisha history, you should read Memoirs of a Geisha by Arthur Golden. It's not a true story, but it's wonderful to read. It's about 300 or so pages, maybe a little more. But once you pick it up, you won't be able to stop reading it; I promise. I loved it so much I'm taking it with me to read on my trip! Ok...I've done enough blabbing for now...for those of you that have Spring Break this week, have fun!

DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN INUYASHA OR ANY OF THE CHARACTERS. RUMIKO TAKAHASHI DOES! (Lucky woman! But Kudos to her!)

"Miroku…we've got to do something…" Sango sobbed.

"Sango…you know the stories. Youkai are very powerful. Even if we tried, you know we couldn't defeat them."

"What about Inuyasha…"

"I don't think Inuyasha is in any kind of shape to defeat two full youkai."

"Oh. Suddenly the expert, are we…" Sango sighed.

"Come on, Sango. We'll find a way to get her back. But the best thing we can do now is leave. I don't want to endanger Kagome's life. I'm sure Naraku and Sesshomaru will keep her alive if we just do what we're told."

"But…"

"Sango, have I ever steered you wrong in our relationship?"

"No."

"Then what makes you think I would do it now?"

Sango looked at Miroku with tears in her eyes.

"You wouldn't."

"Then let's find Inuyasha and go, alright?"

She nodded slowly, and they set off to find their missing friend.

Both were still in complete shock from the event that had taken place. Their whole lives had turned upside-down in a moment; finding the existence of youkai to be true. And their friend was hanyou. Someone they had known their entire lives had another life he had never spoken to anyone about.

"As if crawling onto the bed will keep us away from you, Kagome." Naraku licked his lips seductively.

"Please…I'm begging you! Don't do this to me."

"You don't understand…after all that we've said…and done." Sesshomaru shook his head.

"I do! And you're both vile, evil, nasty creatures! I hate you!" She shouted, causing both youkai to cringe, trying to refrain from putting their hands over their sensitive ears. "I don't love you, and I never will! Inuyasha would never—"

Kagome's sentence was cut short when, with lightning speed, Naraku shot forward, covering her mouth with his clawed hand.

"You will never say that bastard hanyou's name in front of me again, do you understand?"

Instead of nodding in understanding, Kagome did the next best thing she could think of. She opened her mouth…and bit down on Naraku's palm, causing him to shout and jerk his hand from her face.

"BITCH!" He backhanded her, sending her flying into the headboard. She moaned in pain.

"Sesshomaru…I believe we may have to take turns mating her. She needs to learn submission." Naraku spat, clutching his injured hand.

"I agree. And I suppose you want to be the first to break her." He drawled sarcastically.

Naraku raised his eyebrow.

"I'll be in the library." Sesshomaru sighed, leaving Naraku in the room alone with Kagome.

She shrank back in fear as Naraku turned to her, a lusty, violent gleam in his crimson eyes.

"Kagome…Kagome…Kagome." He began. "You have so much spirit…so much energy. And defiance." He smiled slightly as he crawled on the bed, sitting directly in front of her.

'I shall enjoy depriving you of that fieriness, wench.' He thought as he smirked.

Her heartbeat sped up, causing her breath to come in pants. What did he have planned for her?

'Oh, Kami…I wish I hadn't bitten him…' She moaned internally.

"Come here." He spoke in a commanding tone.

Once again, Kagome was forced to move against her will. She tried to fight against it, but like before, it only caused her pain. She could do nothing but give in. Slowly, Kagome got on her hands and knees, and crawled to Naraku; her head bowed in submission.

"Good girl." He spoke to her as if she were a pet to him.

Kagome began to shake slightly.

"Look at me."

Instantly, her head shot up, face meeting his.

"Hm. This may work yet. It seems my commands are strong tonight." He murmured softly.

Much to Kagome's disgrace, Naraku's hand reached out for her face. She wanted to move away from the offending appendage, but found herself stiff, and unable to do so. His milky white hand with long, smooth claws, came up to caress her cheek.

"So beautiful." He whispered.

"Why can't you just find someone else?" She sobbed.

"Because there is no one else like you in the world."

Kagome knew that in any other situation, she would have been touched by the comment. But this time, it made her want to vomit.

"This will be over sooner if you just submit, koishii."

"I'm not your beloved! Would you get that stupid thought out of your head! I hate you, and I hate Sesshomaru! I want out of here, and you won't stop me!" Her head shot up; Naraku's commands released from his shock at her choice of words.

As soon as she spoke, Kagome knew she had made a mistake. Naraku's eyes narrowed slightly, glowing blood red and she could feel the anger radiating from his body.

"Bitch. You will learn your place. It is beside me."

"HAH!" Kagome spat. "Beside you? You're evil, and you only want me for whatever power you assume that I have. Well, I'm gonna tell you something, mister—"

She was cut short when she found herself suddenly pinned underneath Naraku's muscular body, one of his hands holding her wrists high above her head; his other gripping her chin, while his legs straddled hers, rendering her immobile.

"And what, exactly, are you going to tell me, Kagome? Hm?" He hissed.

"You're despicable!" She hissed.

"I've been told."

Kagome squirmed underneath the demon lord, causing him to chuckle. If she only knew what she was doing.

"You're not making it better for yourself, wench."

He pressed himself against her, letting her feel his arousal. She gasped.

"But if you wish to keep fighting, I won't stop you…" He licked his lips lustfully.

"You hentai!" Kagome shouted.

"I do not understand why I should be considered hentai when it is my future mate I am…"

"I will never be yours!"

Naraku growled, causing Kagome to still underneath him.

"You say that now, wench, but earlier, you weren't objecting to the treatment you were receiving! I saw the way you looked at me! I could smell the arousal seeping from your every pore, and it wasn't for that ridiculous hanyou, Inuyasha!"

"Please! I love Inuyasha…I don't care about what…or who…Kikyo was to him! Don't take me from him…he needs me!"

"He needs no one, bitch! Did you not see…when you bid your lover farewell and confessed your heart to him…he did not care! He could hardly notice you were in the room after I killed his beloved Kikyo!"

"That's because you killed the first woman he ever loved, again!"

"And you admit he loved her."

"Of course I do! I could see it! I don't blame him for loving her—he never got to say goodbye! I would be the same way, if I were in his place! You took her from him, whether you admit it or not, and he finally had her back…" She paused for a moment, realizing the gravity of what she had just said.

'He finally had her back. He…had her back. And now she's gone…and after what I said to him…I was tired of being walked on. He lost Kikyo, and then he lost me. Oh dear Kami. What have I done to him?' She thought, tears silently moistening her cheeks.

"Inuyasha." Sango spoke softly, her voice bringing him out of his trance. She was sitting beside him in the backseat of his car, with Kikyo still grasped in his arms. Miroku had taken the keys without protest from the hanyou and took it upon himself to drive.

"Inuyasha." She spoke once more, hoping to elicit a reaction from him.

"Sango…perhaps you should leave him alone." Miroku suggested.

"No…he has to say something."

"Sango, please come and sit with…"

"Will you two shut the hell up…" Inuyasha whispered.

"Inuyasha, please, talk to us! We have to go save Kagome…" Sango started, but was stopped when Inuyasha began to growl.

"Fuck Kagome! I don't care if those two rip that bitch apart!" He shouted.

"Inu…yasha…"

Unbeknownst to his friends, Inuyasha gripped Kikyo closer to him, tears streaming down his face in the dark. He had lost both of his loves in one night. Why would Kagome ever want to take him back when she had Sesshomaru and Naraku?

A/N: Aww! Poor Inuyasha! I know he's not my fave character, but I do still feel sorry for him. A little. Anyways, I'm sorry this chapter's short. I've been preoccupied lately with my own life, and I hadn't had a chance to type much. I got a rejection letter from the college I wanted to go to...and the only one I applied to (because I'm an idiot!) and so now I have to figure out where I'm going to go. Probably a community college to get my GPA up, so then maybe the college of my choice will accept me next time around. Grr. Oh well. I still plan to go to Japan someday anyhow, but it'll just take me a little bit longer (long story short, I want to go overseas and teach English to the Japanese. I love the culture there too, so I'd have sooo much fun there. I know I would!) I'll update when I can, okay? Tootles!
