Chapter 4: Hanon's final decision

Hanon opened her eyes, trying to figure out what had just happened to her. She noticed her hands and legs were tied together and she was unable to get free. She now knew what had happened; Hakudoshi had taken over her mind and made her attack Inuyasha. Angry she moved and kicked her tied feet on the wall she was sitting by.

"Kick all you want, you won't be free" said a voice, a voice Hanon knew and hated. Naraku! She screamed in her head.

"Naraku! Get me the hell out of here!" she spat, even though Naraku was evil, he was adorable. Hanon bounced trying to get free.

"Sorry, but I have very important needs for you, if you settle down I will be able to release the ropes around your hands and legs" he said. Hanon nodded, she clenched her jaw, and let him untie her.

"What to you want with me?" she asked, her tone was rasp, hard and strong. He sat down next to her.

"You and Inuyasha are fighting, you feel hatred to toward him, and yet you forgave him" he said. Hanon stood,

"That's none of your dame business!" she yelled, outraged that Naraku had kidnapped her only to know what had happen between Inuyasha and her. Naraku didn't get angry at her for yelling at him. Instead he gave her a warm smile, Hanon sat back down glaring at him.

"I'm sorry if I made you angry" he said, Hanon looked confused. Why is he being nice to me? She asked herself. He moved closer to her, this time Hanon's anger disappeared and was replaced with fear. Was he trying to woe her? Hanon shook her head and moved away from him.

"What do you want?" she asked, her voice was small and she felt shaken like he was different than himself. His smile faded,

"I already told I want to know just how angry you are with Inuyasha" he said, closing his eyes and reopening them. Hanon gave him a disgusted look, why the hell did he want to know that? He looked innocent, his long black hair was a little messy and his eyes looked as if they had kindness in them. He looked human, Hanon could feel herself feel a bit safer knowing that Naraku wasn't attacking or threatening to take her life. She sighed and decided to tell him about the fight about Inuyasha, and how she hadn't really forgiven him, the only she said that was because every time she saw Kagome she got weak and was unable to protect herself. If she hadn't forgiven Inuyasha at that moment Kagome probably would have killed her. Then again, did Inuyasha really need Hanon's forgiveness to protect her? If he was really sorry like he said he was then why did he wait for my forgiveness to come and protect me?

"Do you know why Inuyasha hasn't come for you yet?" he asked her, Hanon didn't know why and already she starting to doubt Inuyasha, if Inuyasha really cared for her, like he does Kikyo then why hasn't he come and saved her yet?

"I have no chance with Inuyasha" she said finally.

"Why is that?" he asked her.

"Because Inuyasha seems to have a thing for dead girls, after all I'm still alive" she said beginning to raise her voice. Naraku's eyes flashed, she saw hate and absolute laughter in his almond eyes. She ignored it, she was to upset about Inuyasha she kept shouting and yelling how unfair Inuyasha has always been to her.

"You might not know this, but when you kidnapped Kikyo, all Inuyasha could talk about was finding you and Kikyo, I bet now that you have me he won't give a dame!" she yelled. Naraku stood; his pretty pale face seemed to be bright with complete and utter happiness. Hanon once again ignored it.

"If there was anything to be done to make Inuyasha pay for all the hurt he gave, would you do it?" he asked, Hanon was shocked at his question, she thought a moment. She thought of all the hurt he had caused her, all the times he made her want to cry, but couldn't in which caused her more pain. All the times she tried to show him kindness and he just took her for granted and lashed out at her for no reason at all. Hanon stood and stared at Naraku, her eyes were clouded with anger and revenge.

"Yes" she replied. He gave an evil smile, he began to walk away and motioned Hanon to follow. She followed him into a room that was large and very pretty. The wood in the room was polished and covered in gold trimming; the windows were covered with beautiful red satin cloths. To the right of the room stood Kagura, Hakudoshi, Kanna, Kohaku, and Kagome, Kagura and Hakudoshi and Kanna were all made of Naraku's essence. Kohaku's life was saved by Naraku and now Kohaku (Sango's younger brother) is being forced to work with him. Kagome chose to work with Naraku, she had betrayed Hanon, and the pain it caused her had never gone away. To the left of the room stood five very young women, probably single maidens, Hanon stared at them; they looked and dressed like witches. Naraku motioned her to the center of the room, it was then Hanon noticed the large pentagram drawn on the floor in gold. It was well detailed with interesting designs all around the inside and out. Hanon stood in the middle, utterly clueless of what was going on, she wanted to know but Naraku didn't say anything else. The five women circled around her, this time Hanon got scared, she tried to run out of the circle, but the women somehow held her back. She was trapped in the center of the pentagram unable to move.

"Naraku, what the hell is going on!" she yelled, struggling to get free. Naraku laughed, the evil surging trough his body. He has been tricking me this whole time! She thought. Hanon tried to move her hands, but the strength the women had was UN bearable.

"I asked you if there was a way to make Inuyasha pay for everything he has done to you, would you do it, and you said yes, your getting your wish" he said, "I'm going to turn you into a full fledge demon using the power of these witches" he said, Hanon's eyes widen, me a full demon?

"I change my mind, I don't want this I changed my mind!" she screamed, Naraku motioned for the ritual to start, the women began chanting strange words and Hanon could feel herself changing. It was then she smelled it, the demon instinct was coming to her and she caught Sesshomaru's scent. She could feel the sweet, powerful demonic aura that was surrounding her body. With one last breath she screamed,

"Sesshomaru save me!"

Hanon opened her eyes to see Sesshomaru staring at her, she looked around. Naraku and the others had left, the huge pentagram had disappeared and, she was naked. Hanon blushed and tried to find something close by to cover up. She had been right about sensing Sesshomaru near by, but maybe that is why Naraku left so quickly. She stared up at, he said but he untied a yellow and red cloth that was wrapped around his waist. He handed it to her, and she did her best to try and make it look good. When she was done she followed Sesshomaru outside, where he asked her the strangest question.

"What happen to you?" he asked, Hanon was shocked but she still had to make an attempt to at least try and answer the question.

"It isn't my fault" I pleaded, which wasn't entirely a lie, after all Naraku had tricked her into it, though she should have never trusted him, no matter how innocent he looked. Hanon felt dirty, only not. She began to explain to Sesshomaru everything, about the fight between her and Inuyasha, and Hakudoshi's and Kagome's abduction, and Naraku's conversation and thankfully he wasn't upset. He was actually glad, though knowing Sesshomaru he would never show it.

"I see," he said, he motioned her to look in the river that flowed peacefully next to them. She looked at her reflection, her short blue hair was gone, instead long straight black hair, and bangs that almost covered her eyes. Her eyes were no longer ocean blue, they were an icy blue, and they didn't look like human eyes either, more like cat eyes. It was then when Hanon realized the cat ears that sat on head. She tugged at them, and then noticed the tail that was moving from side to side. Naraku turned me into a cat! She thought.

"Just what kind of demon did that bastard turn me into" she said sternly, she didn't care that she was now a demon, but she wanted to know what kind of demon she was, plus she didn't mean to sound so mean. She was still angry that she had let herself get tricked by Naraku. She didn't like the fact that she had let them kidnap her so easily.

"You are a jaguar demon" he said, his gaze never leaving Hanon's appearance. Hanon felt herself blush a little. Who wouldn't, Sesshomaru was a powerful demon, and he was drop dead gorgeous.

"Shall I take you to Inuyasha?" he asked, the bored expression never leaving his face.

"NO!" I shouted, "Sorry, it's just I'm still angry at him and I don't want him to see me like this, at least not yet" she said. Sesshomaru nodded, and walked away.

"Wait!" she yelled and caught up to him, amazed at her speed. While they walked in silence she began to think of any ability she might have now that she was a demon. For starters she was lot stronger than she was before. She was more flexible, and she could ran and climb trees faster than Inuyasha, not faster than Sesshomaru of course. Her claws also grew larger when she was angry and her eyes would turn blood red.

"Sesshomaru, would you teach me to fight?" she asked, realizing what she had just said. Sesshomaru stopped and stared at her for a long time, and then finally to Hanon's relief he spoke.

"You learn on your own to fight with your fist, but I can teach you to wield a sword, we will need to get you one before you start training" he said, this time she caught a hint of a amusement in his voice. Hanon smiled, and without thinking grabbed a hold of his hand. She waited for him to bite back or kill her; instead he stared at her then turned his attention forward. Am I falling for Lord Sesshomaru? She told herself softly.
