My Heart Will Go On
Chapter 9: Rescue Part II


Kagome lay on the ground, her eyes dull and lifeless as Naraku stood, watching the window. He was dressed in a babboon outfit, shocking enough. He had bought it from a halloween costume store last year, and the woman in charge looked at him as if he were crazy (what she didn't know was that he was crazy). Kagome was naked however, her clothes lying all around the room, torn and not able to use anymore. He hadn't done that┘ yet, she still had her innocence, but that didn't mean he hadn't left her body alone. He had touched every piece of exposed skin. He had rubbed her nipples until they turned quite hard and painful, and she had just only experienced her very first orgasm, no matter how much she wished it had been her silver-haired hanyou who she was doing this with. She only hoped he was coming soon┘ before it was too late...

"Heh heh heh, did you enjoy yourself, miko?" Naraku asked, staring over towards her direction, surprisingly looking away from the window for a moment. She managed a weak glare in his direction before her eyes closed. She yelped out when he grabbed her by her hair, pulling her up to face him eye-to-eye. His eyes narrowed as they stared into hers, which were wide with fear, yet determination and hope rested in them as well, and slapped her right across the face instead of saying anything. She yelped out in surprised and he tossed her to the floor.

"Tch...why does that hanyou even keep a worthless miko like you around? Kikyo could find the shards for him faster than you."

Kagome bowed her head so he wouldn't see her tars. "I've asked myself that many times, I have yet to find an answer."

Naraku raised an eyebrow at this, and was about to say something, when the door was suddenly banged open. Inuyasha and Sesshomaru stood there. Sesshomaru was completely calm, though his eyes looked pretty pissed off, and Inuyasha was the complete opposite. He was growling and his eyes flashed from red to amber, searching everywhere for Kagome. When he found her lying on the ground, in her condition …the Tessaiga dropped to the floor. Sesshomaru tensed at this, but Inuyasha made his way over to Kagome, and carefully picked her up, cradling her in his arms as though she were made of porcelain and would break at the simplest touch.

"You came..." she whispered, looking up towards him, reaching up a hand to touch his cheek. She smiled softly when she saw that it instantly calmed him down and stopped him from transforming.

"Kagome, are you okay?" Inuyasha asked her gently. "Did he - ?"

Kagome shook her head before he could finish, and Inuyasha sighed in relief. She still had her innocence. Good. He blushed when he realized she was still naked. She blinked a few times at seeing him blush, then remembered she was naked too.

"Ah…uh…" Kagome mumbled as she looked down. He chuckled gently towards her, even in this situation Kagome was able to embarrass herself and make herself blush. "I'd tell you that you look beautiful, but now is not the time or the place," he whispered into her ear, and this made her shiver and blush more. He wrapped his outer red haori around her naked body, and picked her up once more, walking over to Sesshomaru. "Take her back to your mansion, she has no other home here anymore," Inuyasha demanded, and Sesshomaru blinked.

"Ah yes…I heard the Sunset Shrine was destroyed…" he looked over towards where Naraku stood, seething with anger but had a smirk on his face. "I can only assume you were behind that."

Kagome looked up at hearing this, and Inuyasha clutched her closer. She had thought that, but why destroy her entire home?

"It was quite a lovely shrine, if I do say so myself. Been in your family for generations, am I correct, Kagome?" Naraku turned to look at her. ⌠It must be less than five-hundred years old though, because it wasn't in the Sengoku Jidai. Pity that the jewel shards weren't there…at least your family didn't have to suffer th-"

Kagome had had it. She tore herself from Inuyasha's arms and flew herself at Naraku, which shocked everyone. "You! You're the reason I have no home!" she exclaimed, angry tears filling her eyes. Inuyasha was about to step in, but a firm hand on his shoulder from Sesshomaru told him not to, that Kagome needed to do this. "Because of you, my family is dead!!!"

Naraku raised an eyebrow. "If I remember correctly, your family was dead before I trashed the shrine."

Kagome glared at him. "That doesn't mean you couldn't have made one of your creepy guards get in a car and run them all over!!!!" Kagome was yelling now, and so Inuyasha's ears were flat ontop of his head. Sesshomaru didn't seem to care, nor did Naraku. But since he was a half-demon, his ears were more sensitive. Her eyes looked over to him for a moment and she gave an apologetic smile. "Sorry,"she mouthed to him before turning back to Naraku, her eyes narrowed.

The once half-demon smirked widely. "You think I have enough time to waste, to order one of my bodgyuards to get drunk on purpose and run over your family, also on purpose?"

"You'd have the right motive to. With my family gone and me in the Feudal Era with Inuyasha- it would be the perfect time to look for the jewel. But what you don't know is, I need it to cross over, so it will always be with me."

Naraku raised an eyebrow. "It certainly wasn't on you when I took off your clothes, miko."

Inuyasha growled, but Sesshomaru tightened his grip. The miko smirked. Something that shocked pretty much everyone in the room. "Doesn't mean I need to carry it with me while in this era. I could give it to someone else."

Naraku blinled. Who could she-

"You didn't count on the fact that someone would survive that crash, did you, Naraku? That someone would survive and I would still have a family and a tie to this world? It was all your plan to get rid of me so you could take over this era, was it not? You were unsuccessful with the takeover five-hundred years ago, so why not move to a different time!? But I'm still here!"

Naraku paled. The miko could not be that smart. It was like she was telling him his entire story, his plan. "H-How!?"Kagome's smirk just widened more. She had been right all along.

"I just put two and two together. You want nothing more than the jewel. I have the jewel. Since you exist in this time as a human and have heard of me, you must have realized that I had traveled between two different times, as I had such strange clothes when traveling to the other era to see Inuyasha. When I was gone for a while, you had the perfect opportunity to destroy my family, and make it easier for you to look for the jewel. You had it all planned out. Except my little brother surviving certainly didn't help."

Naraku was seething with anger once more, and his hands gripped around her throat tightly. She gasped and choked, her small hands wrapping around his own to try and pry him off. "I may not have killed your brother, Kagome. But here you are, right here in my grasp. So close I could-"

"Drop her!" Finally free from Sesshomaru, he charged for Naraku and punched him in the stomach. Since he was human, it wasn't quite so easy for him to heal at all, so it was rather painful. The punch made him drop Kagome, who was instantly caught by her hanyou. She gasped for air, her face pale as the color slowly returned to it. He looked down at her worriedly, it was amazing she was even covered by his red haori still. ''Are you alright?" he asked her gently.

Kagome nodded up at him. He managed a smile down towards her. "You stood up to him, I'm proud of you for that. But right now, you need rest. Let me take care of him. He's only human, and while he can hurt a human like that┘he won't even be able to scratch me now." She couldn't help but smile at his overconfident attitude, but she knew he would be fine. Humans could not harm Inuyasha that well. Though they could actually harm him, it would take a lot for a human, even a reincarnated Naraku, to kill him.

Kagome was taken over to Sesshomaru who picked her up reluctantly and took her out of the room. Before he walked outside however, she stopped him. He looked down at her puzzled. "Souta." Sesshomaru blinked.

"He's in the hospital, is he not?"

Kagome shook her head. "Naraku learned that he had survived when he planned to kidnap me- and took him as well, from the hospital, and ripped the wires that were keeping him healthy right out of him."

Sesshomaru seemed to go pale, and nodded, heading down to where he found another scent, similar to Kagome's. He found a dungeon, and a guard was there, but he seemed to be unconscious.

"W-Who are you?" Souta's scared little voice could be heard, and it was weak sounding, like he was straining to speak. He could not see Kagome yet, she was pretty much covered by Inuyasha's fur of the fire rat kimono. When Sesshomaru turned, he gasped at the sight of his sister.

"Kagome!" he moved to get up, but collapsed weakly back to the ground. Sesshomaru carefully set Kagome down on the ground by the cell, and broke through it with his Tokijin. Carefully picking up Souta in his arm, he gave him to Kagome. She gratefully took him into her arms. Upon looking at him better however, she was shocked. They needed to get him back to the hospital, and fast. He was deathly pale. He was straining to open his eyes. The back of his head was bleeding from having been thrown onto the dungeon floor, and his leg looked to be twisted at a wrong angle.

"Oh, Souta…my little brother, Souta…" she whispered softly as he clung to her the best he could. "Everything is going to be alright hnow. I'm gonna stay with you at the hospital until you get better, and then we're gonna move to the feudal era with Inuyasha, okay?"

Souta smiled weakly. "Sounds like fun…" he mumbled before falling asleep.

Kagome couldn't help but chuckle.

She knew they would be just fine from now on.

But Inuyasha...

She frowned, looking back towards where they came from.

Sesshomaru noticed this and looked over to her. "He will be fine. The Naraku of this time is human, full human. Do not forget that. Come."

He walked out the door, and Kagome followed close behind, carrying Souta.

For some reason…she believed him.
