[sorry it is a bit late this time...writers block hit me like a wreaking baaaaaaaallll~. However, barreling thru so I can get this "book" done. Getting to the meat and bones to this stew!]

I woke up. That's the best way to put it really, I just woke up. No noise, no smells, nothing. I woke up
in a hut, not knowing where I was. It took me a few seconds to fully remember what happened. I was taken
away from Sesshomaru. As soon as I realized this, I stood up and began to rush out of the hut.
Unfortunately, I was cut off by the woman with the large boomerang. I think her name is Sango? I literally
ran into her and then she just grabbed my arm.

"Whoa, take it easy...you are safe now." She said with a gentle smile on her face. "We will protect you from
now on and take you home..." she continued. I was not amused and jerked my arm from her grasp.

"I was protected from where I was." I shot back at her. Her expression went from gentle to firm. I walked
outside, right into the ring of fire. There stood Miroku, Kagome and Inuyasha. The two smaller creatures
were there also, but they were not a threat. I looked each of them in the eyes as they all looked to me
almost in a bit of shock. "Where are we?" I asked. Kagome calmed a bit.

"We are in a small village close to home..." she answered. 'Close to home'? What the hell did that mean?
I looked at the other two before charging my way through the group. "H-hey! Where are you going? You will
be safe here!" She called to me. I was starting to get frustrated. I turned back to them.

"You really don't get it do you? I was already safe, I was already protected. I really appreciate it, but
I think I can handle things on my own." I stated. I turned back to the woods and closed my eyes. I will
find Sesshomaru again, I just have to use my tracking abilities. Before I knew it Inuyasha had me in a
head lock and was pulling me back into the hut.

"Would you just shut up and get back inside the hut. If Sesshomaru finds you then you will be in real
trouble" he stated. I tried to pull out of his death grip.

"Do you guys even know what the hell is going on? Because I don't think you do" was all I could manage to
say to them, being choked to death by dog-boy here.

"Of course we know, Sesshomaru is planning on using you for his plans, whatever they may be." Inuyasha said,
tossing me back into the hut. i gave death glares to him.

"Clearly you don't, he just-" was all I could say before he stormed off. I can't really tell what it was
that triggered inside of me, but it was not good. All of my frustration boiled up inside me until it was a
white hot rage. I stood up and very slowly made my way to the door. Whatever was going on was making my
perception on reality very different. I was staggering as I walked out of the hut. The sky seemed dark to
me, and everyone was looking to me a bit panicked. I was not in full control of myself by this point,
because I just lashed out an attack. There was some fighting, I was kinda blurry during the whole thing.
All I remember is the monk throwing a paper or something at me, then I pretty much stopped in my tracks and
fell over. I couldn't move my body! What witch craft was this?! I tried to move as my perspective and my
senses went back to normal. They all gathered around me, Kagome with horror in her eyes. I just sighed and
gave up.

"W-What was that?" Kagome asked. "Is she possessed?" she questioned. Miroku hovered over me a bit closer.

"I am not quite sure, she seems like she is herself...then again..." he pondered. He had decided to place
another of those things on me...right on my butt. Coincidence? I THINK NOT! I tried to kick his face, but
still couldn't move. I just moved my eyes to Kagome.

"Can I please explain without being written off as a defenseless girl?" I pleaded with her. She knelled
down to me.

"I guess you have earned the right..." she stated. They all took me inside the hut and then they all sat
down in a circle. They propped me against the wall of the hut and then waited.

"Ok, so what the hell just happened?" Inuyasha asked. I tried to gather my thoughts and not explain things
kind of randomly, like I tend to do when I am stressed.

"Ok, the situation as far as I know is simple, Naraku is hunting for me, sending people to capture me and
Sesshomaru was only protecting me." It sounded rather simple to me, but when i studied the faces of everyone
else I had realized it was simple...on my side of the wall. Kagome just looked at me.

"But, if that is true...why does Naraku want to capture you? Also why is Sesshomaru involved?" she asked.
I blinked a bit.

"Well, I don't really know...I think he might have said something about...something else to deal with or
something..." I stammered. Inuyasha just scoffed.

"Come on, remember who you are talking about. My selfish brother is not the type of person to do things,
especially protect someone, for no reason at all. There has to be something sneaky." He stated. I was in
shock.

"...he is your brother?" was all I asked.

"It's...a complicated relationship" Kagome started to explain. I just zoned them out. Wow, I never would
have never have guessed that Sesshomaru, the closest thing to a perfect man i have ever seen would be
related to...Inuyasha. What was I thinking? My face turned red from embarrassment at my own thought.
Sesshomaru was perfect, yes, but I had feelings for him that he would never even consider for me. I sighed.

"Are you ok?" Sango asked me. I tuned back into the conversation

"what? Oh, I am fine..." I had found myself thinking about Sesshomaru the whole night. What was he doing
now? Is he ok? Does he even care i am gone? Is he looking for me? Did he give up? I tried to break free
from this thing...a spell i was under.

"Don't bother struggling, it's a very powerful binding spell...meant for demon. why it is working on you I
will never know.." Miroku said after he noticed me trying to break free. i just kept quiet.

"Yeah, it is a little strange...and the whole thing with you earlier...have any idea what was wrong?" Kagome
asked me. I really didn't want to talk about it, so I lied.

"I have no idea, I don't really remember anything..."

It had been 2 days. Two log, boring days. They kept me pretty much "captive" the whole time. Just because
they let me go and I tried to run off one little time. How annoying.

"We will protect you long enough until we send you home!" Kagome said. I really didn't need protection! I
swear...oh well. I will eventually get away from these crazy people. it was the third night, and everyone
was sitting by the fire. I was of course stuck in the hut. I was just laying there, waiting for the right
time. Unfortunately that time never came. See, I sensed someone coming. I was a bit terrified because I
didn't know what was coming. I felt a hint of Miyakashi's aura, but the rest was a mystery. it was really
scary, I felt a deep fear from the pit of my stomach. I was stuck inside the hut as I watched everyone jump
up, as if they knew what was coming. The group looked at each other very seriously.

"It's Naraku, get ready!" Inuyasha yelled as he left the hut, with everyone following after. NARAKU?! HE
WAS HERE?! DAMMIT! Here I was in my most vulnerable spot and HE shows up! i desperately tried to break
free when I paused to hear the fight going on outside. The fire had blown out on its own inside the hut. I
just snapped back to my problem and tried my hardest to fight off the spell. I did manage to fall over on
the floor, which only made things worse...or did it? I tried to wiggle around to get the spell tag to fall
off. After about 5 minutes or so I had finally succeeded! I slowly rolled to my belly and hopped to my
feet and ran to the door...right at the right time to meet Miyakashi there. He was on his way into the hut
when I made my way out, me running into him and then he wrapping his arms around me. Crap. I was shocked
when he looked into my eyes with a smug smile.

"There you are my sweet poison...I've been looking everywhere for you." He said to me in a whisper. Of
course I tried to fight my way out of his grasp, but that only mad him mad. He held so tight that I could
barely breath. I grasped onto his clothes for support. He just smiled and lept into the air. Great, as if
there was not enough of that in my life. I closed my eyes, trying to concentrate on breathing. He didn't
let up until we landed again in the middle of the woods. He dropped me and I fell to my knees to catch my
breath. "Here she is, as you wanted Lord Naraku..." Miyakashi said. I stopped breathing. This was bad. I
looked up to see the same baboon costume. It was huddled a few feet away from me, but only stood and walked
to me. I fell backwards while trying to stand and froze. is this what fear was? My legs refused to move,
my sight was fixed to him even when I wanted to look away and run. my arms felt like lead when I wanted to
fight him. This was the man I had been hearing about, I vaguely remember from my past life, and yet, I had
an insinct of fear and terror gained into my brain. He knelled down to me and cupped my chin in his very
cold hand. I had only looked into the eyes of the baboon, which alone was scary itself. I saw his smile
from under the mask as he pulled away and let me go. He began to walk away.

"That is her for sure...all she needs is a full transformation. The way she is now is completely useless to
me. Bring her to the castle so we can deal with that." Naraku said as he disappeared. Wait, if that was
him, then who were the others fighting? I looked around to see which direction they were and then stood up.

"KAGOME!?" I yelled for her right before I was muffled by Miyakashi. He covered my mouth with his vine-like hand and then brought me in close to him again. I was really scared. I felt really weird with him around. He brought my face to his and he was an inch away from my face. My eyes widened as my face turned red as he got even closer.

"Now now, we don't want to ruin our happy reunion by inviting horrible guests..." he said to me. what brought this on? I thought he hated my guts or something? Was I not his boss or something? What was going on? I closed my eyes and slapped his face away from mine before he bound my hands again. He forced himself on me, forcing a kiss on my lips. That is when it all made sense. He slipped something into my mouth via his. He pulled away and let me go. "Now be a good girl and wait here for me, i will be back after I get done dealing with your friends..." he said, jumping off again. I had to take in all that had happened, by the time I had finally snapped out of my daze I had ran in the direction of the fight. Suddenly I felt my whole body get heavy. My feet stopped moving, my arms became heavy, what was happening? That's when I remembered. It was the poison that I had when I was first kidnapped. My whole body became very heavy ad my vision became very blurry. I fell to my knees again, trying to fight the poison and began crawling. My body had eventually given in and I flopped over on the ground, the only thing I could do was lay there. I could feel my consciousness slipping away...this sucks!
