A/N I'm continuing this story because one talented writer begged me to continue it. So without further ado, this chapter is for you GodOfFlame101!

Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha or any of its characters. There will be a couple fictional characters that I created.

Once upon a time

Chapter 2: A bad start

While everybody was busy trying to escape from the piercing sound, the demon grabbed Kagome and ran away.

Kagome was long gone before anybody knew what was happening. When the scream stopped, everybody except for Inuyasha stood up in shock. How could a beautiful innocent child turn into such a hideous beast? Inuyasha being a dog had a very sensitive hearing. He was still rolling on the ground, holding his delicate dog ears and groaning in pain when Miroku realized that he should probably help him up. He bent over and told Inuyasha that the demon was gone. Inuyasha looked at him, his ears still ringing, with a deathly stare. Miroku suddenly regretted having mentioned this news to Inuyasha.

-You let that filthy demon take off with Kagome? Asked Inuyasha very slowly, trying to keep in his anger.

Miroku looked at him with a scared smile.

-Now now Inuyasha, let's not jump to conclusions. That was a very loud scream; anybody would've been knocked down such a noise. Kagome was gone by the time we realized what was going on, Explained Miroku.

-That's not the point. How could you let that demon get away?! Even worse how could you let it take Kagome away as well?

-Now don't you go blaming us for something you couldn't do either!

And the argument began. Miroku and Inuyasha were in a heated argument that nothing could have stopped. Shippo and Quilala stood there watching them pass the blame to one another, shaking their heads at the lack of maturity. Sango, not being able to handle this childish argument anymore decided that it was time to put an end to it.

-STOP IT! If you two just keep on arguing about who should have saved Kagome there's no way that we'll get to her in time! Yelled Sango over the entire ruckus that Inuyasha and Miroku were creating.

The argument stopped. Inuyasha didn't know what came over him. Was it because Kagome was kidnapped that he suddenly began to rage upon Miroku? He didn't understand what was happening to him. He was suddenly filled with this uncontrollable anger. Deciding that Sango was right and that it would just be a waste of time to let all of his rage out upon his friends, he took charge.

-We can follow Kagome's scent to find her, said Inuyasha.

Everybody followed, not wanting him to get mad again. If it weren't for Sango stopping the argument before, Inuyasha probably would have taken out the Tetsaigua to battle Miroku. Leading the small crew, he began to wonder. Why was he filled with such anger? Is it because of the thought that Kagome was taken hostage by some hideous demon? Was it because she was in danger and if they didn't save her time who knows what would happen to her? Whatever it was, Inuyasha swore to himself that he would take care of this demon once they found it. He didn't care about the demon being a little innocent girl. The thought that he was probably going to kill it made him feel much better.

-------------------------------------------

Kagome was sitting in the bottom of a dark cave when she awoke. The demon had kidnapped her and they had traveled most of the night. She slowly got up, head spinning a little, and headed towards the exit. When she got to the exit, she took a quick look at the surroundings. She had never traveled to this area with Inuyasha before. She had no idea where she was. It was dawn now. The sun was beginning to rise, very slowly. The landscaping was breathtaking. Kagome had never seen such a beautiful view. She heard a small noise behind her. She turned around and saw the little girl. Kagome didn't know what to do. This girl seemed so kind, but she also the very same girl who turned into a bloodthirsty demon that kidnapped her.

-Please, do not be afraid of me. I did not mean to take you away from your friends, said the little girl shyly.

Kagome just stood there, watching her closely.

-You shouldn't have followed me. I didn't want to hurt you or your friends, she continued.

-But you didn't hurt me.

-I know that now, but I could have killed you. I would take you back to your friends but, I don't know where we are, continued to explain the little girl.

-That's alright. Inuyasha will follow my scent and he'll find us. Then we can take you home as well.

-No, I cannot go home. They can't do anything for me there. All I want is help. Please, help me stop transforming into a demon, cried the little girl.

Kagome took her into her arms and hugged her. She silently made a promise to the little girl.

"When Inuyasha gets here, I promise to help you escape this curse…"
