Sorry these are so short and detail-less! But you have to understand people!! There are 201 chapters i have to write here!! And I'm writing them down word for word, detail for detail. If I add to much in, I'm afraid it will not only take too long, but stray from the story. And I don't want that. So, you're getting a play-by-play.
InuYasha-Chapter 361-Concealed Feelings
Daichi flew through the forest, InuYasha hot on his trail. The trees and leaves blurred on all sides, but InuYasha's focus couldn't tear from the child before him.
Sheesh, If it hadn't possessed that kid I'd be able to take it down in one shot, InuYasha thought, his fangs bared. This was such a pain. This hitoukon is an annoying youkai.
InuYasha felt something coming up behind him. He got ready to attack, knowing there was no way that Kagome or Miroku could have caught up to them. He sniffed the air, finally recognizing the scent.
"Hey Kohaku, you're following, aren't you?!" he shouted behind him. Kohaku stopped on a nearby branch, catching Sango's eye. He couldn't believe InuYasha! He had wanted to keep it a secret, for he didn't want Sango to know he had regained his memories quite yet. If she knew, Naraku would soon figure it out, and kill him. He didn't want to die. Not yet.
Kohaku…Sango thought. What was he up to? So, he wasn't attacking that boy? He was trying to fend him off, from attacking his father? To save him from the fate Kohaku now endured…
"I assume that you're under Naraku's orders but…" InuYasha asked, "is that youkai really that special?!"
No I'm just… Kohaku defended himself in his mind again. I need to save him…to return him to his father's side…
Kohaku grunted as he threw the chained end of his scythe yet again, catching the boy by his ankle. He pulled him down, near Sango. Realizing what he was trying to do, Sango fished around in her demon-slaying outfit for her item. She tossed a handful of powder at the boy's face, causing the hitoukon to release him. The hitoukon flew off into the sky, trying to escape yet again.
Daichi fell through the air, headfirst.
Sango called to InuYasha, "InuYasha! Take care of that kid!"
InuYasha caught the child by his ankle, still staring after the demon. "But the hitoukon got away!"
Sango looked up at it, just as it was disappearing through the trees. "Damn." She pulled Kirara up, beckoning her to follow after. "I'll go after it!"
"Hey!" InuYasha protested, "You mean I have to baby-sit?!"
"InuYasha!" Kagome called, running to him. Miroku carried the injured father on his back.
"Daichi!" the father exclaimed, relief on his face.
"Heavy…" groaned Miroku. He let the father down to tend to his unconscious child.
"Daichi, hang in there," he said, holding him in his arms. The boy's eyes opened, looking up at him.
"Dad…" he spoke softly.
"Daichi," the father answered as the child began to cry. "It's ok now. It's ok."
Kagome watched them, a smile on her face.
Kohaku watched from behind a nearby trunk.
Sorry to get you mixed up, Kohaku thought, turning to jump away. That youkai, hitoukon. I can't just leave it.
Kohaku came upon a grassy field, where a menacing boar demon stood. The hitoukon had now attached itself to its eye, possessing it. Kohaku, now uncaring of a demon's life, thrust his weapon into its eye. But the hitoukon did not die.
Kohaku looked upon it quizzically.
"The hitoukon are weak against anti-youkai drugs," Sango explained. "It'll wither away soon."
Kohaku turned to face her, shocked at her presence. How long had she been there?!
He stared into her eyes, seeing the pain and confusion hidden behind them. It hurt to see her like this, to see that he had done this to her. It hurt so bad…
"Kohaku, why didn't you leave? Where you trying to save the father and his son?"
Kohaku's expression widened, though he tried to hide it.
"You really are a nice kid…" Sango said. You haven't lost your human heart. Even though you're working under Naraku…
I can't allow anyone to notice that my memory has returned, Kohaku thought. Including Ane-ue. In order to slay Naraku, I have to pretend I'm still being controlled.
"Kohaku…" Sango uttered, outstretching a hand to him.
"Stay away," Kohaku said harshly.
Sango retracted her hand, pain on her face.
"Naraku's order was to collect youkai. That is why I didn't leave. Since this youkai is dead, I have no business with it."
"Kohaku!" Sango called out, running to him. Kohaku threw his scythe at her, knowing she would be able to block it.
"Don't follow me!" he shouted, catching the blade. He ran off into the nearby forest.
"Kohaku! Come back!" Sango yelled. She fell to her knees, "Kohaku…"
"Sango-chan," Kagome said, her and the rest of the group coming up behind her. "You let Kohaku-kun get away? Why…"
Sango stared at the ground, unable to face them, "Even if I restrained him by force. I don't know how I'd deal with him. While Kohaku's heart is being controlled by Naraku…"
"But," Kagome tried to reason, "Kohaku-kun was trying to save that father and child."
"Yeah…" Sango agreed. For a second…I had thought Kohaku had returned to normal…but…
I can't return to Ane-ue's side, Kohaku thought, running down a hill. He thought again of that horrible night, the night he had killed his family and friends on. I was controlled by Naraku…and killed father and our comrades with my own hands. That's why…I must finish off Naraku with my own hand.
Kohaku thought of Kagura, and what she had said about the crystal; "This crystal of youki is a clue to finding Naraku's heart. If the youki vanishes from the crystal, it means the heart is there."
Kohaku stared down at the crystal Kagura had given him. He frowned, since I've had this, the youki hasn't vanished from it once. Where on earth is Naraku's heart?
Back at the mountains, Goryoumaru sat still in his prison. Demons poured in though the bars, but he merely destroyed them from the power in his arm. The demon's flesh fell to the ground in clumps, lifeless pieces of meat. Goryoumaru outstretched pieces of his body to the flesh, picking it up. He brought it to him, absorbing it into his body. Kagura looked on.
He's taking in the damn youkai, she thought, glaring.
"Hey Goryoumaru," she spat. "Just what the hell are you? Why did Naraku lock you up?"
And also, Naraku releases the youkai he hunts into the prison. And Goryoumaru takes in those youkai, and it repeats again.
"If you really want to know, then release Goryoumaru from this prison, Kagura."
Kagura turned her body around to see Hakudoushi standing behind her.
"Hakudoushi…?!" she exclaimed.
