A0/N: This is the second chapter of InuYasha's Twin. Thanks so much for the reviews, guys! That really helped boost my confidence about this story! I hope this chapter is good. I'll leave that up to you to decide! I also added a little bit about Miroku and Sango, because I got some helpful reviews.

Disclaimer: I don't own any of the InuYasha characters. I own InuMaru and Sapicooyu.

InuYasha's Twin

Chapter Two

Sango and Miroku were walking in the forest.

'Do you think it was wise to leave InuYasha and Kagome alone?' asked Sango.

'Nope,' replied Miroku. 'But we need to go to town. If it's true that a whole bunch of demons are holding hostages, the people need my wind tunnel!'

'True,' agreed Sango.

The two started to run as they came up towards the town.

InuMaru was pinned against a tree by two of Kagome's numbing arrows, one in each shoulder. She was the one who had screamed.

Kagome was standing with another arrow ready to fire. "You...you foul creature!" she shouted.

"B!" yelled InuYasha as he stood up and realized what InuMaru was about to do to him before Kagome hit her with two arrows.

InuMaru's eyes were clouded over, her body numb with blood flowing from each shoulder.

"I can't believe she tried to kill you! Are you okay?" asked Kagome as she ran over to InuYasha.

"Yes, I'm fine. I really trusted her...I don't think that was her acting," muttered InuYasha.

"What are you talking about?" demanded Kagome. "You saw her standing over you with the Tetsusaiga above your throat!"

InuYasha was silent. He was watching a black ghostly shape float out of InuMaru's wounds.

"What the-"began Kagome before she let out an ear-piercing scream.

The black shape had flown right down Kagome's throat!

"Kagome!" exclaimed InuYasha. "Are you okay?"

"Die InuYasha!" screamed a raspy voice from Kagome's throat. Kagome let an arrow fly towards InuYasha.

InuYasha leapt clear from the arrow. "What the h do you think you're doing?" he demanded angrily.

"Die!" screamed the voice as Kagome shot another arrow at InuYasha.

InuYasha dodged the arrow and shoved Kagome up against a tree, making her drop her bow and arrows. "Who are you?" he growled.

The voice laughed tauntingly. "I am Sapicooyu, an evil spirit and my goal is to destroy you!" screamed the voice before Kagome kneed InuYasha in the stomach.

InuYasha stumbled backwards, but regained his balance. "Well, you picked the wrong hanyou to deal with!" roared InuYasha as he grabbed his Tetsusaiga.

"Before you lodge that Tetsusaiga deeply into Kagome's heart, would you like to know the consequences?" asked the voice.

"What are you talking about?" demanded InuYasha, paused with the Tetsusaiga in striking position.

"If you kill me in one of my bodies, then every body I've been in dies as well. That means InuMaru, Kagome and a lot of other innocent people," smiled Kagome as she counted the people off on her fingers.

"D it," muttered InuYasha angrily.

"I would have stayed in that hanyou's body," continued Kagome. She was still unarmed. "The stupid girl had to hit InuMaru with an arrow and make InuMaru bleed, so I had to come out."

InuYasha smiled. "Your first mistake, you told me how to get you out of Kagome's body!" exclaimed InuYasha as he once again pinned Kagome to a tree.

"No!" cried Kagome, her raspy voice tight with worry.

InuYasha trailed his claw over Kagome's arm, making it bleed.

The black ghostly figure seeped out of Kagome's arm. It took the form of the huge snake InuMaru had killed.

"When InuMaru killed you, you seeped into the scratches on her hands!" exclaimed InuYasha angrily. "You are a fool to have messed with my sister!"

"Very good, InuYasha," praised the figure of the snake. "One might actually think you're smart."

"You won't be that smart when I'm through with you!" screamed InuYasha as he hurled his Tetsaiga at the snake. It went right through him!

"Foolish InuYasha. I am a ghost, so nothing you do can hurt me, and vice versa," laughed the snake scornfully. He started to float away.

"Where are you going? Come here and fight, you coward!" yelled InuYasha.

"Don't worry InuYasha. You haven't seen the last of me," hissed the snake as he disappeared.

"Come back here!" yelled InuYasha. He hated it when a bad person or thing got away.

"Wha...what happened?" asked Kagome as she stood up from where she had fallen. She stood up, unstable at first.

"That spirit went into you and controlled you. You tried to kill me with your arrows," replied InuYasha as he looked at InuMaru.

"Oh I'm so sorry!" cried Kagome as she came over to InuYasha and gave him a hug.

InuYasha ignored Kagome and walked over to InuMaru. He started to take one of the numbing arrows out of her left shoulder.

"What are you doing?" demanded Kagome as she walked up to InuYasha and slapped his hand away from the arrow.

"I'm taking out the arrows, what does it look like?" spat InuYasha.

"Don't! Just leave her here. We don't need her, we've got each other," smiled Kagome.

InuYasha started taking the arrows out of InuMaru's shoulders again.

Kagome slapped his hand away once again. "Didn't you hear me? I said we don't need her, we've got each other!" she exclaimed.

InuYasha sent Kagome a look that could freeze fire. "Back off, wretch," he warned.

Kagome shut up and walked off a little ways to watch InuYasha.

InuYasha had to work hard at getting those numbing arrows out of InuMaru's shoulders. Once got them out, InuMaru could move again.

"Are you okay?" asked InuYasha as he helped InuMaru walk over to Kagome.

"I'm fine," muttered InuMaru, embarrassed at being possessed by Sapicooyu. She looked at her feet.

Inuyasha regained his usual cool. "What did you think you were doing anyways? Taking on that snake and letting yourself get possessed! How stupid is that?" he demanded.

"Oh shut up," snapped InuMaru.

InuYasha, InuMaru and Kagome each curled up into a ball and went to sleep.

A/N: Sorry if you like Kagome. I don't like her, so she's kind of a goody goody snob in this story. Trust me, it wasn't supposed to turn out that way, so sorry to you Kagome fans! Reviews are always welcome here! I like to read reviews, so I would appreciate it if you would send some!!! R&R.
