Hey my wonderful readers

So, last chapter raised a lot of questions. Hopefully I answer most in this chapter.

KagomeMarie: yesss, Kaede. It'll fit, trust me.

MarineMP18: haha, sorry about that. It sucks, cause just as the story got interesting, I became incredibly busy. Oh well, I write whenever I can spare a moment, I'm trying to keep the updates comin.

KagsYash12: Yes, Naraku is one messed up dude. But, I can't answer your questions at this moment; they're part of the next chapter. So…read on and find out.

BoredGirl17: yup, exactly right.

Last chapter:

'I put her in danger by falling for her…' Inuyasha left class promptly at that thought and went to visit the school nurse, Kaede.

Currently:

"Can I help ye Mr. Takahashi?"

"Yeah, you can ya old hag." Kaede shot the hanyou a death glare before continuing in her usual sweet tone.

"And how may I do that? Does it have anything to do with the young girl you've been seeing a lot of lately?"

"How'd you know?"

"That's the only reason you come to see me. You did the same with Kikyo."

"Oh…yeah…her…"

"Well," she could see the pain in his eyes; she knew it hurt to think of his past love, "What is wrong with this one?"

"She's being beaten by her father…"

"Ah…well, I have something that may help a little. It makes it so she can not feel the pain and the injuries will not be so serious. But I cannot do much more. Just be glad he doesn't rape her like that man did to Kikyo."

"You don't understand! It's the same man! He's after her because I… I'm in love with her!"

"The same man?"

"Yes."

"Naraku is her father?"

"Yes!"

"And he just beats her?" she asked, rushing around to find ingredients for a special potion.

"That's what she says, luckily. But she has been raped before…under my protection…"

"By whom?" she stopped suddenly to face the boy.

"Taro." The look of shock on her face told Inuyasha that was not a good sign. "WHAT?"

"Taro is known to be employed by Naraku. He's the one who told him she was sleeping with all the other men at school. He must have been trying to get to Kikyo that night. They look almost exactly alike, the two girls. Did you come save her while he was there?"

"Y…yes…"

"Did you say anything that would have given him any clue as to he fact that you liked her in any way?"

"…kind of…but Bankotsu was there too, he acted more like he liked her!"

"That's not the point. Did Kikyo see any of this?"

"It's the night I broke up with her…in front of Taro…"

"This isn't good, he surely would have told Naraku. And since she has already been deflowered…I fear for her safety even more…wait…was there blood where he had raped her?"

"No…why?"

"She must not have been a virgin then…"

"Does that mean…?"

"I'm afraid it might…"

"That bastard!"

"Yes, but as long as you and her have not done…that…yet…"

"W…we have…"

"Oh no!"

"Why? Is that bad? What's going to happen to her?" Kaede began flipping through an old dusty book, it was so worn out you couldn't even read the title.

"Naraku sold his soul to the devil years ago…around the time your father was killed. He's a half demon like you; only he cannot control his demon, it is much too strong. He could kill her."

"Shit. I've got to hurry Kaede! I've got to get to her house!"

"I'll be done in a few minutes, these things can't be rushed." She did, however, go as fast as her old body could carry her; she needed to save this one. She had lost Kikyo last time. She was on Naraku's side now; and something in the old woman's gut told her she and Naraku had something diabolical planned for young Kagome. After a few minutes the hanyou was handed a small glass flask full of a pinkish liquid, it seemed to be glowing and was warm to the touch, "Here, this will bring her back if you should get there too late. If she is not dead it will protect her from any harm, or…intrusion, for at least a week. She should be able to hold him off until you can get her out of there." She knew Sesshomaru would have been working on the girl's case for a while now; it shouldn't be long before he could get her out. Stupid law system. The girl needed help, now. The authorities had no idea how much danger the young girl was in.

AT THE HIGURASHI'S:

"Kagome! Kagome! Where are you?" there was blood splattered all over the wall on the way up the stairs, the rancid smell caused Inuyasha to gag. The whole house smelled of blood, mainly Kagome's, but there was also the smell of that bastard Naraku's. Inuyasha smiled proudly at the thought that his Kagome might have been able to hurt the strong hanyou. He also could distinctly smell the blood another man, and felt more than one's presence had been in the house. The thing that worried him, however, was that he could not smell her, or his, presence in the house through the thick smell of blood, and…death? He couldn't tell who it was that had potentially died, but he knew it was very bloody. He had to find Kagome. He heard muffled screams from a nearby room and crept slowly towards it. He couldn't make out whose screams they were, it sounded like more than one person, and they all had cloth stuffed in their mouths. (AN: wow, you know how hard this is to write this part when you have an ex boyfriend who you're still crazy about telling you he wants to fuck you when he comes back into town? For all you that care who he is I'll tell ya about him at the end of this chappie.) As Inuyasha came nearer the door he was overwhelmed with the coppery smell of fresh blood, he had to save whoever was in there. Rock hard muscle met wood in a splintering crack as the door to the room was ran through by an anxious teenage hanyou. His golden eyes held a deep concern for the well-being of those in the room, and his black (AN: remember, he uses a concealment spell when he goes out) locks flew wildly around framing his perfect face etched with worry, disgust, and anger. There were about 10 big men and one feminine shape huddled around three figures, all of which seemed to be female. The men all turned to face the lone Inu-hanyou, and the small female walked to the front of the group along another man. He room was dark on that side of the room and Inuyasha could not see who the two were until they entered into the light. "K…Kikyo? What are you doing with that bastard Naraku?" he spat at their feet, the beautiful 17 year old turned to the older man and planted a passionate kiss on him in an answer to the posed question. The kiss made the teen look away in disgust, that old bastard was running his hands up and down his old love's perfect body, fondling every part of her he could, then shoved her forcefully away, showing her who was boss. The girl's fragile frame rammed into Inuyasha's stable one, making him take a small step back out of surprise, but he did not fail to catch the falling girl before shoving her back at Naraku who just let her fall to the ground with a THUD. "What the fuck is going on here Naraku?"

"We're teaching these little bitches a lesson. These two," he pointed to who Inuyasha now recognized as Kaugra and Kanna, "Betrayed me, their own master to help this little bitch," he gestured towards the broken form of Kagome, Inuyasha's eyes flashed red at the sight, she was coated in her own blood, her left arm hung limply in her lap as she rested her bleeding head on Kaugra's shoulder. The latter was gently running her finger through the younger girl's hair and clutching her sister, Kanna's, hand. The two sisters were both beaten pretty badly, Kaugra had a fat, bleeding lip, bruises around her neck and the shape of hands, her clothes were torn, and random cuts and bruises adorned her arms and legs. Kanna was black and blue all over, literally, her pale skin over emphasized the effects of the damage done to her, and her right eye was swollen shut, she also had deep gashes and stab wounds covering her small body, the blood soaked through her usually white kimono, turning it a deep shade of red. "And yourself. They should have known better. And my dear daughter's crime? 1. She fucked you 2. She disobeyed me 3. You fell in love with her, and the most important…4. She saved my life." Inuyasha's eyes flicked towards Kagome in an effort to see if what the bastard had said was true, but she was sleeping, or passed out, on Kaugra's shoulder still. Kaugra gave Inuyasha a small nod, confirming Naraku's story.

FLASHBACK:

Naraku realized how much his daughter truly loved him at that moment, she could've left, she could've called the cops, she could have killed him, yet she was still here, and so was he. She was stronger than anyone he ever knew. He had to stop himself, before he hurt her anymore. He pointed his loaded gun at his head, and a shot rang through the house. The bullet, however, had missed its intended target, just grazing Naraku's right shoulder. Naraku looked down upon his daughter, who had used her last bit of energy to push the gun from his head and was now panting on all fours, drifting in and out of consciousness, and became angry. How dare she save his life! It was not up to her whether he lived or died! He was killing himself for her sake, but her selfishness kept him alive. She wanted to be beaten, she wanted to be raped, she wanted his demon to control her every move. An evil grin spread across the middle aged man's face, he took out his cell phone and began dialing numbers.

END FLASHBACK

"Kagome…" Inuyasha stated sadly, she had such a good heart. She wouldn't let anyone, not even her bastard of a father, die if she could do anything to help it. She was so hurt, yet she still took the energy to save Naraku, and now, she was slowly dying. Inuyasha could tell that she had lost too much blood, she was shaking slightly in her slumber, and her skin, or what you could see of it through the blood cascading from every cut on her body, was ghostly white, how Kanna's usually was. "You bastard!" Inuyasha rounded on the older hanyou, throwing a punch at him, but his fist was caught by one of his henchmen before it made contact. The man was about to throw a punch at the black haired boy until he was knocked out cold by an unknown source. Inuyasha turned to see whom his savior was, "Sesshomaru? When did you get here?" he asked his stoic older brother.

"Kaede called me a few minutes ago, I figured you would need my help. And these bozos," Sesshomaru gestured towards a group of men behind him, "tagged along." As they stepped into the light Inuyasha recognized them, Bankotsu, Jakotsu, Suikotsu, Ginkotsu, Mukotsu, Kyokotsu, Renkotsu, Miroku, Sango, Hojo, and, to Inuyasha's great dislike, Kouga.

"We are not bozos!" Sango yelled at Sesshomaru, she was dressed in a tight fitting black unitard with pink shin, shoulder, elbow, and stomach guards held on by red ribbon and carrying a huge boomerang she used when training at the dojo and a black wakizashi (AN: one-handed katana) tucked in her red ribbon belt. "We came to help Kagome. And apparently Kaugra and Kanna as well," she winked at the sisters, before getting in her battle stance as the crowd of 9 henchmen inched towards them. These men were not humans like most of the group they now surrounded, they were full demons, some were very strong, unlike the one Sesshomaru had knocked out a few seconds ago. The group of 13 in the middle was all huddled up back to back waiting for the right moment to attack.

"NOW!" Sesshomaru yelled and the group charged at their offenders. Sesshomaru took on the biggest and strongest of the men. Kouga took on the next biggest and strongest, although he was not far from the threat of Sesshomaru's foe. Sango and Miroku teamed up on the next biggest, Bankotsu took on one that was just under theirs along with his brother Kyokotsu whom was not the best of fighters, more of a handicap than anything, which was why he fought along side Bankotsu, the strongest of the humans. Jakotsu took on a medium sized one on his own, Renkotsu did the same, so did Ginkotsu and Suikotsu. Hojo took on the smallest and weakest. Mukotsu, being the scaredy cat he is, ran away. Inuyasha, however, went straight for Naraku.

"Ku ku ku, Inuyasha, this is the night you pay for what you and your father did to me. You will not die, oh no, but all your friends, your brother, and of course, our dear Kagome, will."

"You bastard! Do you honestly think you're strong enough to take on any of them, let alone all of them?"

"I do believe I can. They have all picked their foes, and now, they leave." Naraku clapped his hands and in a puff of smoke everyone but himself, Kagome, Kaugra, Kanna, Inuyasha, and Kikyo disappeared.

"Where the fuck did they go?! I'll fucking kill you if you did anything to them!"

"Temper, temper Inuyasha, lets just sit back and watch as this whole scene plays out." With a snap of his fingers Naraku conjured up a huge screen T.V., and two arm chairs, one of which slammed into the back of Inuyasha's legs, forcing him to sit, and chained the hanyou down to it. The screen separated into nine sections, one for each group, and they all began to play. Each group was in a different area that seemed to favor the henchmen they were fighting.

WITH SESSHOMARU:

Sesshomaru found himself in a completely different area than where he had started this fight, which didn't seem to bother him much. His one and only concern was saving Kagome, which meant he had to beat the crap out of this guy. The area he was in was very open, perfect for a foe the size of Sesshomaru's. The man was not only, big and strong, he was also fairly clever. Sesshomaru chuckled at the thought of him being any threat at all, however, and pulled out his sword, Bakusaiga. The huge dragon-like demon began charging at Sesshomaru's much smaller form. It was very fast, but not near as fast as Sesshomaru was. He jumped into the air, seeming to disappear completely, and landed on the dragon's back, stabbing it right behind its heart. The effects of Bakusaiga reigned through the body of the dragon; its flesh began melting away and large chunks of flesh fell to the ground. 'That was easy.' Sesshomaru thought as he was transported back to the room Inuyasha and the others were in and also forced into a chair to watch the rest of the events unfold.

WITH KOUGA:

"Hey, fatty! Over here!" Kouga yelled at his large, strong, and very stupid opponent, who began charging towards the Okami only to get a swift kick to the face. Kouga's foe was an ushi-oni (AN: cow demon that is sometimes depicted with the body of a giant spider), and was incredibly fast, much faster than Sesshomaru's, it took all Kouga's might to keep up with it, but he somehow did, for Kagome. As he drug his claws across it face it moo-ed in pain and tried to pierce the youkai's skin with its poison fangs, which, unfortunately for it, didn't work. Kouga was much too smart and quick for the beast and was taken down by a roundhouse kick to the head. The giant ushi-oni wavered slightly, and fell with a THUD to the ground in a pool of blood. Kouga was transferred to the same room as Sesshomaru and suffered the same fate.

WITH SANGO AND MIROKU:

"Miroku?"

"Yeah Sango?"

"Where are we?" Sango asked, clearly confused by their new surroundings.

"I'm not sure, but my guess is that Naraku sent us here to aide his henchman." He stated, looking around at their jungle-like surroundings. The yokai they were fighting was a panther. As they talked it began encircling them, preparing to pounce, that is, until Miroku picked up on its presence with his monk powers and sent an o-fuda flying towards it, paralyzing it immediately. Sango threw her hiraikotsu at the demon, slicing it in half. The pair was transported back to the room as well and was forced into a loveseat.

WITH BANKOTSU AND KYOKOTSU:

"Kyokotsu, I want you to stand over there," Bankotsu gestured towards the far corner of the room they had been sent to, away from the hebi (AN: snake demon) he was preparing to fight. His brother nodded in understanding, although was not happy to be taking orders from his younger brother. Bankotsu unsheathed the sword his father gave him, it had been passed down generation after generation and originally belonged to his great-great-great-great-grandfather Bankotsu, who was a skilled mercenary in the feudal era. The sword was named Banryu, a giant halberd, and Bankotsu was highly skilled in its use. He practiced every day with it to become stronger since it was a very heavy weapon. It generally takes three incredibly strong men to carry such a sword, but Bankotsu can carry it single handedly, with no trouble at all. As the snake lunged towards the boy he began to spin the halberd, successfully slicing it into a dozen even pieces. The two we transported back to the room, and each were forced into a seat, Naraku began to worry that the group was too strong for his henchmen, all of his strongest had easily been taken down.

WITH JAKOTSU:

Jakotsu had the same luck as the previous groups and only had to use Kusanagi, his snake-like machete that unfolds into multiple linked blades that twist and turn in unpredictable ways, well, unpredictable to his opponents, once on his bear-demon foe. It was sliced into many different pieces of varying sizes upon contact. Jakotsu was also transported to the room and chained to a chair.

(AN: Renkotsu, Ginkotsu and Suikotsu also easily defeated their foes.)

WITH HOJO:

Hojo was by far the weakest of the humans. He took on the smallest, and weakest of the demons as well. It was a kitsune around the same age as himself. Hojo, being the idiot he was, only brought a small, paring knife. As the fox demon charged, Hojo cowered and stuck out his small knife. It barely grazed the demon and earned his a swipe across the face from its claws. Luckily, the demon was not trained very well and had no clue how to do much damage. The fight continued, Hojo occasionally attempting to stab the fox, and the fox clawing and kicking at the human boy. After ten minutes the fox still only had a couple minor cuts, which were already healing, and Hojo had multiple gashes and bruises and was losing consciousness. The fox demon dug his entire fist into the boy's stomach, causing him to spit up blood. The boy was dying. The kitsune and human were both transported back to the room.

WITH INUYASHA:

Inuyasha and the rest winced at the gruesome sight of Hojo's stomach being pierced by the demon's claws. The were all struggling to free themselves as the limp body of the boy was dropped to the floor at the feet of the three beaten girls.

"Ku ku ku, Inuyasha. It seems as though one of your comrades has fallen. And you only have one reviving potion don't you? Seems as though you will have to choose who to save. Your love, whom will only live to be beaten more and more, and will hate you for choosing her life over another, or the young man who is also in love with the girl who just killed himself to save her. Who will it be?" Naraku laughed viciously. Then in another puff of smoke disappeared, leaving the group alone with their decision, he could not risk being there any longer. If another fight ensued, he would surely lose.

Yes, there are only a couple chapters left. The story is almost over. Next chapter: Inuyasha's decision. Maybe some other stuff. So stay tuned. Not much left. Hope yall still like it and stuff. I'm going to try to finish the next chapter by tonight, check up later. and now for all those that care, about my ex i was talking about earlier:

i live in arizona, he lives in texas with his mom and sister. his dad and little brother live in arizona. his little brother is on the same boyscout troup as my friend's little brother. two summers ago they had a camping trip. my ex happened to be in town and came along. my frined invited me to go so she would have someone to hang with. as we were walking around the camp site we saw him, hes frikin hot okay? so we decided we wanted to talk to him, im shy so she did all the talking. by the end of the trip we all were really good friends, but she was like all over my ex, so i decided to back off, even though i liked him. the last day of the trip we all exchanged numbers and such and he called me the next day. he said he didnt like my friend at all and he really liked me. so i asked my friend if it was okay with her that i went out with him. she said it was fine, cause she didnt like him much anyways. so we started going out. we hung out all summer, and he was really sweet. he never made me do anything i was uncomforable with, even though he was the farthest thing from a virgin, we barely even kissed. im a very innocent girl okay? so anyways, he had to go back to texas at the end of summer but we continued dating. he was like the hottest guy at his school, so of course he got hit on a lot, and one girl even tried to kiss him, but i trusted him and im not the jealous type. so if he said he didnt do anythin, i beleived him. he came out again for christmas and bought me a beautiful diamond and ruby necklace and promise ring. i was totally stoked. but we had a huge fight that night and broke up. we did that a lot, long distance relationships are hard. but we always got back together. so the next week was new years, and we were still broken up. i had given him back his ring and necklace on christmas. sop anyways, that day we decided we would get back together, he was supposed to come to a party with me, but his dad made him go with him. at this party he went to there was of course drinking. i had been texting him all night, and he was completely drunk. he was in a room with two sisters around our age. just them. no adults. they were playing stip poker. and you know, one thing led to another, and he had sex with both of them. i was crushed. my best friend then told me he had tried to get her to sleep with him while i was out of town during the summer. she told me right before i had hip hop the day we came back to dance. i was glad she told me but i cried for a week, my teachers were really concerned about me, cause i wouldnt tell them what was wrong. i only told my very favorite one that i have been taking lessons from for 13 years. and im the total gulible type so a couple weeks later when he said he wouldnt do anything, i beleived him, and we were going out again, we got in another fight, and broke up. this time he was good and didnt do anything. although he was totally jealous of every guy i told him about that i hang with or that grabbed my ass. (apparently im hot. haha. who knew?) but we stayed just friends for a while and he got a new girl. he hasnt had sex since last year and i was really proud of him. he and his girlfriend just broke up. now he wants me back. and im afraid im going to do it cause im so crazy about him. but i dont want to get hurt again. so thats my story of my incredibly horny ex.
