Anyway, I really want to thank you guys for all the reviews, I haven't gotten any bad ones yet, so I am so happy! Happy reading!

Q: Did Mukotsu actually stick his thing in Kagome?

A: NO! Kagome was not actually raped; she's still a virgin so it's all good.

Summary- Kagome is kidnapped by the band of seven because of her power to sense the jewel shards. With Koga and Inuyasha searching for her, can she really fall in love?

Warnings- Language

O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o

Bankotsu's rage practically rolled off of his body as he watched the sight in front of him.

Although Mukotsu hadn't noticed anyone there, Kagome seemed to have turned her red, puffy face towards his in an obvious plead for help; a single tear escaping her big, chocolate eyes; and he was going to give her some.

"What the fuck are you doing Mukotsu!?" He yelled. "Get off her!"

Mukotsu immediately jumped off Kagome and went against the wall. His leader's enraged voice had been more than enough for him to fear for his life.

Kagome closed her legs and turned to the wall; covering her bare body from both of the men, the sobs now easily heard through the fabric over her mouth.

Bankotsu went to up to Mukotsu and gave him an obviously angry glare before punching him harshly in the face. "You don't ever defy me!" He said before throwing another punch in his face.

"But Big Brother, I didn't see the point to your perspective so I just… What is it about the wench that you would not allow me to… have my fun with her?" He asked, his tone wondering.

Another punch made his cheek throb. How he longed to defend himself and his pride, but he knew he had already upset his brother, and if he were to even try something like that Bankotsu's attitude would grow even more irate and he would surely have his head.

"Do you dare question my orders? How dare you show me such disrespect? I know what's best for the group and you will not defy me!" He finished with kneeing him in his pot belly of a stomach.

Mukotsu crunched over, holding his stomach and grimacing in pain. Once he recovered enough to walk, he stumbled out and headed to his own room.

Bankotsu went to the side of the bed where a bawling Kagome lay. He put his hand on the back his head, scratching it as if to try to figure out to say. There was an uncomfortable expression on his face.

"Umm, look, it's gonna be okay. Stop crying, he's gone…" He said hesitantly. "I'm going to untie you now." He said, letting her know he meant no harm.

He took the cloth from her mouth first, and then untied her arms and wrists.

As soon as her hands were free she practically jumped to embrace him, letting herself feel his warmth. She sobbed into his expensive garments.

He could have sworn he almost blushed at her open display of affection. She wasn't supposed to be doing this. He was her enemy, a merciless assassin.

"Hey, what are you… look I don't think…" But he couldn't finish his sentence of rejection upon hearing her wails.

"Thank… you…" She cried into him. She had obviously forgotten she was naked.

He hesitantly took her arms and layed her onto the bed, nearly having to force her down.

"It's…. okay. Umm, do you think you could tell me exactly how far he got? You don't have to if you don't want to." He asked her.

"No… it's okay. He never entered me." She said quietly.

He nodded. "Get some sleep, okay?"

She nodded back and curled up into the warm covers of the bed.

As soon as he was out of the room he breathed a sigh of relief he had unknowingly held. He was glad that he hadn't actually taken her. He wasn't sure why, but his inner self obviously didn't want any harm to come to her. 'No' He told himself. 'The reason I saved her is because that hanyou would be more than angry if he found out about her' He tried to convince himself, even though he knew it was something more.

He went to his own chambers, which were much nicer than the others, probably where the king of the castle had stayed.

He sat on the end of his bed and sighed, rubbing the sides of his head with his hands in confusion.

'What is it with this girl…?'

O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o

Bankotsu woke up first, as usual. He went out to hunt for the morning meal. There wasn't as much fruit as usual, but they'd have to deal. He was still trying to think of the proper punishment for Mukotsu.

It was a good thing though, that he actually had an excuse to be mad at him. If he hadn't warned Mukotsu the previous day the others would wonder why he would punish him for merely having 'fun' with the captive.

Mukotsu had defied him, and there wasn't any other way to put it. The others knew not to bring upon such actions. Not that they ever had.

Once he caught a few good boars and set them to cook, the others were already up and helped prepare the food once he got back. He could see how Mukotsu's eyes averted his gaze every time he looked at him.

This was good. He was supposed to be afraid.

Bankotsu walked to Kagome's room to wake her up. He decided he would go easy on her today. After all, she had been through a lot last night.

He wasn't sure how he could do that without it being noticed by the others. 'Wait, why am I even thinking of taking pity on her? It's her fault that she wears those indecent clothes and prances around like a goddess. No. No, bad Bankotsu' He said mentally slapping himself. 'You are not to think of the enemy as a goddess. Bad.'

But as soon as he stepped into the room and saw her peaceful, sleeping face he had decided he would be a little nice. Just a little.

Kagome woke up to a gentle hand shaking her awake.

"Hey girl, breakfast is ready."

She moaned and turned to face him, and the memories all suddenly faded back.

He saw the distress in her eyes and felt obligated to relieve it, for some odd reason.

"Listen, just get dressed and come on. He's not going to bother you anymore." He said.

She turned dark red, but was relieved when she saw that she was covered with blankets. She looked across the room at her clothes in the same pile he had thrown them into when he forced them off her. Her eyes shined with unshed tears.

"Come on, your okay. Now can you dress yourself, or do I have to do that for you to?" He asked. She could see the small hint of a smirk on his dark lips.

She rolled her eyes and shooed him away. He laughed and walked out of the room.

'He's so immature.' She thought.

Although she did her best to keep her minds on other things, she couldn't stop thinking about what had happened last night.

She remembered most of it. Although after Bankotsu had come in the room, it was all a blur. The only thing she knew is that he had saved her from having her innocence torn from her already over endearing life.

"Okay" She coached herself, trying to find the courage to go out the door. She was pretty sure Mukotsu would be at the breakfast table, waiting. Watching, for his next chance to get to her. Little did she know that Bankotsu had more than set things straight for the horny bastard.

She counted to three, took a deep breath, and then walked out the door. It didn't take her long to get to the dining room.

When she walked in, they were all seated and eating.

She noticed that now Renkotsu was the one to sit by her, not Mukotsu. That made her feel much more comfortable. But it wasn't like anything could actually be too comfortable eating with a group of killers.

She sat down normally, as if nothing had happened. Today's scene reminded her a lot of yesterday morning.

Bankotsu would send numerous glares towards Mukotsu anytime his eyes even left his plate. The only thing that was different was that Mukotsu didn't even try to win the staring contest like yesterday with Jakotsu and Renkotsu.

The others ate silently, averting their gazes from Bankotsu's as well. It appeared that no one else seemed to know of the previous nights' happenings; besides herself, Bankotsu and Mukotsu. It seemed that Bankotsu didn't really enjoy sharing what his fights were about with those uninvolved in them. She had realized this yesterday morning when she asked about Jakotsu, Renkotsu and Bankotsu's fight. She had learned quickly that was not a smart thing to do.

But the others had to know that they were in a fight. If it wasn't the death glares sent across the table, it was definitely Mukotsu's black and blue face.

She decided to stray as far away from the subject as possible.

As soon as breakfast was over, Bankotsu led them out to look for jewel shards as he had the previous days.

Kagome couldn't help notice the dead silence as they walked over the terrain. It made her feel so awkward, but she new it didn't affect them the least bit. She did feel a little better when Jakotsu started humming, but not too much better.

-Ten Minutes Later-

"I swear if you don't shut that annoying little mouth of yours I will shut it for you!" Renkotsu's irritated voice yelled at the gay man.

Jakotsu glared at his brother before countering. "I'll do whatever I want and you can't stop me!" He yelled back.

"You better shut up, I'm warning you now Jakotsu…" Renkotsu's voice faded off.

"You'll what?" Jakotsu's voice echoed sarcastically so that it sounded like he was scared.

Before Renkotsu could defend, they both received a death glare from their leader. They took it seriously and quit there bickering.

-Ten More Minutes Later-

"Big Brother I'm really bored! We haven't found any jewel shards today! And plus I don't think we are, so could we go destroy a village or something?" Jakotsu whined.

Kagome's face turned to a grimace when she heard this. 'Having fun' with the Band of Seven was the farthest thing from fun to her.

Bankotsu seemed to notice this. "No. You guys got a break yesterday. That should have been more than enough fun for awhile. Besides, you can't have fun all the time. Life involves work too, Jakotsu." He explained, the evil glare not leaving his face.

Jakotsu sighed. "I no… but it's a total waste of time with all of us out here. I mean how many people does it take to search for jewel shards?"

Bankotsu actually pondered his brother's opinion. It seemed to make sense, unlike most of Jakotsu's thoughts.

"Well… I think you're right Jakotsu. And since none of you want to get off your lazy asses and search for jewel shards, then I'll do it. You all can go back to the castle or destroy a village or whatever it is you want to do. I'll expect to see you for dinner though." He answered.

They nodded and Jakotsu clapped happily to himself. Kagome noticed he did this a lot. He sortive reminded her of those rich pop stars that are so full of them selves and waste all there money away on purses and what not.

They all seemed to be happy by their leader's decision, and headed back to the village eagerly.

Bankotsu noticed this and realized that he had won both ways. He had seemed like the good guy to all his brothers, even if he had a funny way of showing it, and spending time with Kagome didn't seem all too bad.

He had to admit that the wench wasn't too horrible. He knew he shouldn't be thinking be thinking things like that but he just couldn't stop himself. But he did wonder how she was having this effect on him. He had never felt any emotion towards a woman before; just using them for sex. What was it about this girl? He was brought out of his thoughts by what he recalled to be a soft, sweet voice.

"So, umm, are we gonna get going?" Kagome asked innocently. She was wondering why he had been staring off into space.

"Yeah. Let's go." Bankotsu said in his, as always, stern voice.

They walked for awhile, then, all to her surprise, she actually sensed a jewel shard. She was surprised they had actually found two in a row.

Bankotsu noticed her sudden stop and smirked, getting in his battle position. He knew by now when a jewel shard came, her whole body language changed.

"I-" She said, but was unable to finish.

"Got it." He said, just as a huge bear demon came through the trees.

Before Bankotsu attacked, he noticed Kagome's face. He seemed to pay much more attention to her now, watching her almost every move.

Her face looked scared, scared like the day he had kidnapped her. The first day she had met him, thinking she was going to die. She had that same look on her face.

He clutched Banryu tighter. 'Why would she be scared? Is it really because of that demon? I mean does she think I can't protect her, think I can't defeat that fat animal?! I'll show her, how dare she doubt my abilities!'

Suddenly, his face turned seriously angry. Angry like it had been last night.

He felt a surge of hate towards the demon at that time, and it was going to die. Right now.

The truth was that Kagome was just afraid because the rest of the Band wasn't there to help Bankotsu. She didn't know if he could honestly take on that gigantic thing. But then again, he had defeated the rat demon by himself.

She felt an explosion of relief hit her system when Bankotsu sliced the horrid thing in half, its body disintegrating from such a mortal hit.

Bankotsu landed on the ground perfectly as usual, his lips pulled into a smirk… as usual. He picked up the jewel shard and put it in his haori.

Before he could get mad at her for 'doubting his abilities' she asked him a question.

"Hey, don't you usually put the jewel shards in your Banryu?" She asked, her face lit with curiosity. He noticed how easily her mood had changed.

"Yeah, but not today. I have more than enough in myself and Banryu. I'm going to take this back and give it to Jakotsu." He answered.

"Why?"

He sighed. He didn't really like explaining things, especially not personal things.

"Well, I figure since he gave me the one he had gotten, I'd give him the one I found. You know, repay the loyalty." He said, feeling a bit uncomfortable.

"What do you mean 'repay the loyalty'?" She asked.

"It doesn't matter, just drop it." He ordered. He didn't really like discussing those kinds of moments.

She shrugged her shoulders. It seemed her curiosity came just as quickly as it had arrived.

Bankotsu eyed her suspiciously, but otherwise ignored it and headed off to find them lunch.

O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o

A/N: Okay, so this isn't really a cliffy but its okay, right? Anyway I want to say that Kikyo probably won't die, so don't worry about that. Thanks for reading and please review!
