The Curse

(A month later)

Kagome knew there was no way to hide her curse from Jacob or any of the guys. They'd surely find it suspicious when she disappeared one day every month and on that same day here about a psycho wolf on a killing spree. She couldn't control the change, she'd tried all her life but there was no stopping that side of her.

Sapphires mind went blank whenever she took control, she always grew quiet after this day even though they both knew it wasn't her fault. The curse is what made Sapphire part of her mind. Even though she was sane most of the time neither Kagome nor Sapphire could control what she did during that day. The curse wiped all memories of the sane Sapphire, making her as if she was nothing more than a killing machine than a regal demon that shared a mind with Kagome.

Kagome had been dreading this day ever since Jacob had first walked into her life. She knew he'd find out her secret at one point or another, she couldn't hide behind the guise of being a lunar wolf forever. One quick sniff of her mother blood and her own could prove the difference in their breeds.

Sighing to herself she walked down the stairs of her home worry about tomorrow. How was she supposed to stop herself from killing, they;d never been able to control it before but at least than she didn't have to worry about other wolves figuring out what had done the blood shed. Humans mainly believed some wild wolf had laid waste to those attacked.

She failed to sense her mother in the room as a sudden pressure applied to her back suddenly caused her to jump away in surprise.

"Oh mom..its just you.." Kagome said with a sigh plopping into a nearby bar stool.

"Whats wrong dear- oh...so its tomorrow isn't it?" Her mother replied her expression going blank as Kagome noticed her recoil backwards.

Kagome could only nod being used to her mothers reaction every month since the curse first started taking affect.

"Come with me...there's something I should have done since the beginning" Her mother said moments later walking away.

Kagome didn't know what her mother could have meant by her sentence but followed her anyways. She could feel her mind regressing already. Sapphires nagging worry echoing through her mind , feeling as if she was pacing in there.

Kagome didn't know why her mother stopped in the living room near the TV. She could see her mother's ears flicker in each direction, as if making sure no one would see. Which made Kagome wonder...where had her Souta run off to? She hadn't seen him all day.

"Hey mom where's Souta-" She asked but his name coming out in more of a whisper as she watched her mother press her palm into the wall and heard something like a lock unhitching.

"I sent him to a friends house...I had a feeling the day was approaching. Now come." Her mother replied her voice taking blank of emotion.

Kagome followed her mother into the strange room that now looked more like a secret didn't dwell on her brother figuring her mother had done something of the sort,he was of course mothers perfect shifter. He still didn't know she was a night-shadow wolf nor what happened to her once a month. Her mother made up a clever lie or avoidance of the issue each time. Had even gone so far as ordered her not to ever take her wolf form in their presence.

When they made it to the floor of the room Kagome noticed the lack of lighting immediately. The only flicker of light emitting from a small window in a far back corner of the room. A light bulb flicked on and Kagome finally saw what her mother had meant.

On the wall furthest from the window was a set of what smelled like Rockwell chains. Against the adjacent wall a metal shelf holding large barrels of what smelt like some type of animals blood.

Before Kagome could object her arms were pinned behind her back and she was being lead closer to the chains. Her body struggled with all her might but she couldn't get nor change as much as to humanoid form. Her wolf form needing more room to be able to activate.

Her claws punctured skin but could not extinguish the locking hold against her. She was pushed down sharply against the wall. The wind being knocked out of her long enough for her not to realize the lack of restraint of over flowing smell of blood until her sight and body were covered in a heavy thick blur of red.

"It'll be okay my dear...I'll let you bring harm to anyone else or vise versa.A mom must protect her pup." She could hear her mother chanting despite the blood that threatened to clog her ears.

"Change my little one...it is the only way..."Her mother voice said seeming closer tho all she could see were dark forms.

Following the command her bones snapped and reallocated, as her form grew to its much larger size. A sharp tug of the tufts of hair at her chest caused her to lower back to the ground. She could smell her own blood mixed in the air. Kagome however could not process what was happening Sapphire's panicking ringing more clear than reality itself.

"Run Kagome...Don't let her do this to us!" Sapphire pleaded

"Its the only way...only way to stop us..." Kagome's dull voice rang back

Something cold locked its way around her throat and paws. Its weight keeping her from standing to her full height as she tried tugging on could barely hear the retreating of footsteps as a low whimper rose from her throat. Even if this was the only way, she didn't enjoy the way the blood felt against her fur, it felt sticky and the iron scent stung her nostrils.

Her once shimmery black coat was now dull and some darker shade than that of could hear Sapphire's outraged howl in her mind as her head sank to her paws.

Kagome didn't know how long she'd been out. She could hear something or someone yanking at a something metallic. A wolf?.. perhaps... judging from the raging ear piercing howls it was emitting. She could numbly smell something, it smelt like blood but different kinds mixed together.

The most potent smell she could place was faintly of her own, but why was she bleeding? Trying to blink open her eyes she noticed her eyes were already open. She willed herself to look around but realized she had no control of her body.

Looking through her own blurry eyes she took in what appeared to be the sun rising through the small parted window at the far wall across from her form. Kagome was confused, how was she conscious still if it was that time of the month?

Trying to hear through her ears she droned out what she assumed was Sapphires growls and snarls. She could some what pick up someone ringing the door bell upstairs.

Kagome took one more glance outside before glancing through the corner of her pupil up towards the ceiling. Who could be here so early in the morning? Straining to hear she picked up the sound of muffled footsteps and someone's quiet/tired voice. She was about to give up the struggle when Jake's concerned voice filled her ears.

She felt her body grow still, signaling Sapphire also heard his voice. A chill flew through her form ,if she even had a form like this, as a slow purr filled the space within her mind.

"Mate!"

"No Sapphire, don't!" Kagome urged but to no avail.

A thundering crack filled the space. The cold metallic feeling around her throat going limp as the cuffs among her paws slipped off. A victorious howl sound from her throat though not her own for it coming out more guttural.

Her form bounded forward without her control, she was confused as to where she was going until the small window came into view. Kagome tried to get her body under control to do something to grind her speed. But it was useless as she felt a small thrust of her front end bashing through the wall and window.

Fresh blood filled her senses, she knew she was hurt but Sapphire charged on. Her body crashing into trees as her form swiveled around towards the front of the house. She could hear someone yelling and a confused startled voice asking 'what was that?'

Kagome knew she had to do something. She could feel the need to spill blood ringing through her mind, its potency clouding the want to protect her mate and family.

Maybe she could work it to her favor...Deciding it was worth a shot she tried to sense anything other than the beating hearts that were drawing closer. She could smell something lving not far from her. Maybe just maybe she could get Sapphire distracted by it..

"Sapphire!" She yelled out into her mind only to be met with a growl

"Sapphire you don't want to kill mate...Mate good right? Come i know you smell the blood rushing through that creature farther into the woods. Leave Mate...Hungry right? Mate no food...Find real food..." She begged urging it the only way she knew a demon could understand.

She seemed to contimplate it before she began to turn away from the direction of the front of the house. Kagome didn't kow if she should feel relief or angst for leading her to killing just another creature.

Kagome could feel her senses locked onto the meal drawing closer but she felt something off in the distance. Like something was coming after her. Trying to hone into her hearing she could faintly hear the sound of something swiftly pounding against the floor a few miles back. Its direction aimed straight towards her form.

Why couldn't people pick up that there was something dangerous about her form like they could pick up something was off about a creature that could break through sound proof walls and Rockwell chains?

Sapphire didn't seem to notice the approaching creature until last minute as she flipped around to grab it by its neck just as it pounced at her body. As her back legs touched the floor her head snapped forward throwing the creature into the trees across from her.

Her fore legs touched the ground and she felt her body crouch down, growling in a threatening manner at the russet brown wolf before them. A familiar scent mixed with the blood in her mouth and Kagome gasped. Her eyes locking on through her red rimmed pupils at the wolf Sapphire had just defend herself against.

Blood dripped from a bite on the left side of his throat. He was growling back at her his body haunched back ready to attack at the slightest movement.

Kagome knew this was bad. She could hear Sapphires sorrowful cries at being betrayed, howling that their mate didn't recognize them. Kagome couldn't let Sapphire hurt him, not this way when she had no clue exactly as to what she was doing. The curse having wiped all scenes of familiarity exchanged between Kagome and their mate and her side comments within her usual spot where Kagome was now. How could she get through to this blood crazed demon though...

"Sapphire...listen to me.." She tried the demon only slightly acknowledging her by quieting.

"Ja-Mate does not know us by this form...we were afraid mate would not like us if he knew what we were..we hide this from mate...Mate can not know our secret..." She said her tone dropping.

Sapphire seemed to process this before she suddenly nodded and rose from her spot on the floor. Her gaze focused on the wolf before them before growling one last warning tone and taking off in a farther destination towards the north.

Kagome didn't know what happened after that or why she was sleeping in the mountains. Her body shivered from its spot in the grass as she looked around confused. The air smelt clean here and dense. Sniffing her nose was over whelmed by the scent of pine and frozen water.

Taking shaky movements she rose from her spot on the ground and surveyed the seemed to be torn up or damaged from what she could tell. However that didn't necessarily mean nothing happened after her mind went blank.

Smelling a strong scent of blood. She looked down an noticed the dried caking of blood stuck to her body and clothes. Her claws were laced with it and dirt, trying to get a look at her tail she noticed a sharp pain that traveled up her spine whenever it moved. She'd have to get that looked at, her ears swiveled,atop her head, as a slight whooshing of water could be heard in the distance.

First she'd clean up and than go home and deal with what happened when she got there...
