Chapter 3
The fighting brothers and Naraku's attack.


*Naraku's Castle*


Naraku was in his chambers when he called for Kanna, "Kanna come here." After a few moments he saw her in his doorway.

"Yes master Naraku" she replied.

"Kanna show me Kagome."

She took a few steps closer to him and tilted the mirror for him to see inside. The mirror that once held his reflection started to whirl and was replaced by the image of Kagome. Then the image got wider and showed the company she was keeping.

"So the little Miko is traveling with Sesshomaru, I image that would be an interesting story indeed." 'It would seem the great Lord Sesshomaru who hates humans has yet again taken another human into his care. I must admit that it is surprising that he did not drop her off after he saved her, now it seems he is traveling away from her group. Could it be that he wishes to keep her, a human? No she is no ordinary human, there is something about her that attracts youkai and humans to her and it looks like the great Lord Sesshomaru has fallen for her charm." a evil looking grin marred his face as he thought about his next actions.

"Kanna take Kagura and stay near Inuyasha and his group. Make sure Kagura masks her scent. Once Inuyasha meets up with Sesshomaru they will likely begin to fight, go in quietly and kidnap Kagome." He passed Kanna a cloth, "When she is in the air put this over her mouth and nose until she passes out."

Kanna took the cloth and bowed, "Yes Master Naraku." she replied.

"Leave now, they will meet soon." with that last sentence she was gone.

Kanna walked up to Kagura and told her of their master's plan and they left to follow the hanyou. She masked her scent as she was told and kept a close eye on them. They were rushing through the forest like a mother that lost her cub. She flew on ahead to see how far Sesshomaru was from them. When she reached them she stayed back watching Lord Sesshomaru interact with the human, she could not help but feel a tinge of jealousy. The Lord that hardy speaks was speaking to the human as if they had known each other their whole lives. She turned to head back toward Inuyasha. They were a good half hour away before he got a good lingering scent that would tell him they were close.

*The Shard Hunters*


Inuyasha, the houshi Miroku, Sango, Shippo, and Kerira were hot on Sesshomaru's tail. (No pun intended) Inuyasha had started to get a fresher scent of Kagome and his brother. The stronger the smell the faster he pushed himself. 'I'm coming Kagome! Hang in there!' Inuyasha thought to himself.


*Sesshomaru's Pack*


Sesshomaru wais now starting to pick up on his brothers' scent, no doubt he had already picked up his. Inuyasha's strength is surprising when this little Miko is involved, so no doubt he will come out here screaming with rage and anger. 'This will be fun'. Sesshomaru turned to face Kagome, "They will be here soon.

She looked at him kind of disappointed because she was beginning to like his company. But she quickly removed the disappointed look and replaced it with a smile. The change was quick but not too quick because Sesshomaru saw her disappointed look.

'Why would she be disappointed?' he was letting his curiosity get the better of him and he asked, "Why do you look disappointed?"


She could have kicked herself but she answered without looking at him, "Because I was beginning to like your company."

He looked at her. 'As was I Miko, as was I.' he thought to himself then he said, "Well you are welcome to travel with me if the whelp becomes to much to handle."

She looked at him in shock; she smiled a genuine smile and replied "I will think about it."

With that last spoken line Inuyasha and the others showed up.


"KAGOMEEE!!" Inuyasha yelled towards Kagome while charging at them full speed.

She let out a barely audible sigh that only Sesshomaru heard. Sesshomaru saw the path that Inuyasha was taking and Kagome could get hurt if she stayed there, so he picked her up, earning him a quick, "EEP!" from her lips then he moved her out of the way.

Seeing Sesshomaru touch Kagome only fed fuel to his fire and made him more angry then he was before. Inuyasha unsheathed Tetsusaiga and pointed towards his brother.

Inuyasha started his charge when he heard a scream, "HELP MEEEEEEEE!!"

Inuyasha and Sesshomaru stopped and glanced in the direction where he left Kagome and she was gone. They looked into the air and saw Kagura's feather in the distance.


"SHIT!!" Inuyasha yelled, and then he looked over at Sesshomaru, "This is all your fault Sesshomaru!" Inuyasha accused.


If Sesshomaru was not controlling his facial features he would have rolled his eyes. "That is where you are wrong hanyou. I saved her life last night from Naraku and she stood under my protection until you would find her. Now can you tell me why she would run off, away from the group in the first place?" He looked into Inuyasha face receiving a silent answer, he continued, "I can tell you; she saw you declare your love to that dead priestess. Now she wants nothing to do with you. You should have seen her when I first meet her, she looked broken. Tell me how you could treat such a valuable member of your pack like that?" he asked while he raised his eyebrow.

Inuyasha did not answer.

"I have no time for this. I have a hanyou to kill." with that Sesshomaru turned and flew in the direction that Kagura flew.
