Chapter 13 – Findance
Sarome heard footsteps above her, and she looked up. Someone, other than Naraku, was here, above her, and there were multiple of them. "Someone…" she tried to say. She was too weak. "Help!" her voice grew stronger, as scents lifted through the trap door above her and into her room. "Kurama! Shelbra! Katoma!" She screamed. The movements stopped. "Down here, below you!"
"Sarome?" Inuyasha's voice said. She smiled as she heard his soft voice through the floorboards.
"Inuyasha! Down below you!" she tried to say. The floorboards broke through from a mighty blast of wind, created by two people: Shelbra and Jin. "Guys!" she whimpered while coughing.
"Sarome!"
She looked up slowly with hopeful eyes. She was now gazing into a pair of forest green orbs. His red hair fell in front of his face. "Kurama…" she whispered, before wincing in pain from her scars. Blood still trickled down it, and Kurama nearly slipped on it. There was so much blood around her.
"Are you ok?"
"Fine…" she mumbled. Kurama undid the chains that bound her with his rose whip. She fell into his arms, her blood soaking into his white kimono. Tears began to flood down his face as he held her weak body.
"Why did you tell me to leave?" he asked. He never got his answered. Her body went weak. "Sarome?"
"She is unconscious," Touya said, walking over to him. "We should get going. This castle is giving me the creeps."
"Not until we find Naraku," Inuyasha said. Sango and Miroku nodded.
"Kirara, you go help to take them back," Sango said. The cat demon transformed, and Kurama placed her on the back. Sarome, who everyone had thought was unconscious, stopped him from doing so.
"No…" she whispered. "I am going to find Naraku. I have to." She turned to Katoma, who was looking as if she might object. "He put me here, cursed me, let me out in the sunlight, and then shoved me back in there, my revenge will be enough energy for me to last."
"I wasn't going to say that!" She said, Sarome laughed slightly.
"Right. I hope you and Hiei had fun when I was away," she whispered, before jumping out of the room with ease, followed suit with everyone else. When Katoma and Hiei reached the top, they caught up with Sarome.
"What are you talking about?" Katoma growled. Kurama, who was walking next to the cat-formed Sarome, laughed. Sarome bowed her head and stopped, her fiery eyes looked upwards, and they clouded over with possession. "Naraku!" she snarled.
