Chapter 18: Shock

Trees passed by him in a blur, boulders, lakes, all of them nothing but colorful blobs in his quest to get to Kagome. Since the others who were probably still sitting on their asses doing nothing weren’t going to be of any help, he decided to take matters into his own hands and do everything himself. He wasn’t about to let her be tortured by Naraku, for his sick pleasure. Not when he could find her and free her. He cared to much about her. That either made him very brave or very stupid--same thing in this case. He had no plan of action, no way of knowing what awaited him, once he arrived wherever it was he was headed. Nothing.

All he knew was that she was in danger and she needed him, like he needed her. So he followed his instincts. And they were leading him to a more secluded part of Makai, which by all means should be flourishing with life. Instead it was devoid of any plant life or life in general, except for about 50 meters ahead, vegetation and plants grew in vast quantity, completely opposite of where he was traversing currently. He had to find her and when he did---he’d never, ever let her out of his sight again.

Please don’t let me be to late.

Swea t poured down their bodies as they moved together like a dance. Over and over to a tune that only they could hear. A small part of her screamed out to her, this familiarity was only felt with the people of her inner circle, she only danced like this with them. Faces flashed to mind--Sesshoumaru, Touya, Jin, Genkai. Sure it was familiar with him, but the movements, the intimacy and pure sensuality of the way they danced one face stood above the rest. Kuronue...

Panting they drew apart, Kagome with her Kusari-gama and Hakudoshi with his whip. They had been training off and on for hours with various weapons, exchanging knowledge that they had on particular weapons. Kagome was highly knowledgeable on the Sword, Kusari-gama, and the Bow and Arrow. Hakudoshi on the other hand was an expert in the Spear, Staff and Scythe. Together they made for a very formidable couple.

Hakudoshi grinned up at his very sexy woman. Seeing his look, her blue eyes narrowed before she slowly began backing up, noticing the predatory glint in his eyes. Pouncing before she could escape, he trapped her in the cradle of his arms, instigating a passionate kiss. Drawing a startled moan from her he nipped her lips and soothed with his tongue, urging her lips open. Bending under his advances she opened up to his advances, their tongues tussling playfully, hands groping. Ripping his haori from his body, Kagome quickly turned the tables, straddling the startled hanyou.

“You want to play like that...” Kagome purred, placing soft kisses against his sweat-slicked skin, trailing down she continued her torturous administrations, tearing groans of pleasure from her partner, while his hands gripped the fabric of her hakama’s. His taste was all male, she absently wondered why this felt so--awkward. Hakudoshi’s violet eyes flickered red---it was her turn. Flipping her over he pinned her arms above her before biting down softly on her neck he licked the smooth expanse of her skin. He was about to rid her of restrictive clothing when they were interrupted.

“Master Naraku wishes to see you.” Kanna spoke no emotion visible.

Growling softly Hakudoshi stood looking ready to rip her apart. Kagome rubbed her hands over his broad shoulders and snaked them around his slender waist, placing a soft kiss against his neck. It had the calming effect she was hoping for. Good, after all it wouldn’t do either of them any good to go into a conversation with Naraku angry. He would use it against them. If there was one thing she remembered it was that, even if it was only on an instinctive level.

“We musn’t keep him waiting.”

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

Kuronue snarled as he tried to break out of his bonds. He knew it was useless, but he had to try. He knew what he had done was foolish, especially now, he didn’t know that Naraku’s home would be so under guarded, he hadn’t expected it so he foolishly entered the home to be greeted with the surprise of his life. It had been a trap. Of course now he was shackled to the wall of the dungeons, stuck. One thing that stuck out in his mind---Kagome wasn’t there.

So where was she?

The door creaked open and that vile half-breed Naraku entered a smirk playing upon his thin lips. He was dressed richly in fine purple and black silk, his crimson eyes gleamed with wicked knowledge. Kuronue didn't like that look, it told him that Naraku knew something he didn’t , probably pertaining to Kagome. But what?

The door opened again this time revealing a small pale, white girl whose eyes were dull and black--like a sharks. A shiver ran up his spine, something, instinct perhaps told him that this was not a demon to be trifled with despite her size and youthful appearance. The next male that entered stirred a flicker of rage, which grew quickly seeing his satisfied smirk. Kuronue couldn’t breathe as the next figure entered the room, no sign of recognition in her eyes, other then a fiery hate.

Kagome...

“Kuronue, I’d like for you to meet Kanna, Hakudoshi and his mate-to-be, Kagome...” Naraku said his voice pleasant.

His heart died. It stopped beating, and shattered. He could hear it happening, loudly in his ears. The pain was excruciating, he felt it throughout his body, his heart, his very soul, crying out. Tears poured down his handsome face before he could stop them, seeing her wrapped in his arms--triggering something in Kagome. Her brows furrowed as her mind kept trying to draw up a memory that wasn’t there. Kagome frowned before stepping up to wrap her own arms around her mate-to-be’s waist. That seemed to be the last straw for the broken demon in front of her. He crumpled and it was almost as if he died right in front of her. Her frown got bigger---what was wrong with him?

“Hakudoshi, Kagome---leave.” Naraku said quietly, “Meet me in my chambers, we have much to discuss.” The two took their leave, Kuronue didn’t even notice, his vision to blurred by his tears.

“What...Did you do to her?” Kuronue asked the pain in his voice almost tangible.

Remplacement De Mémoire. The spell--Replacement of Memory. We simply buried her real memories so deep inside, she couldn’t find them if she tried and replaced them with the memories we wanted her to have. Isn't it a marvelous little spell. She will never remember any of you, nor the feelings she had for you.” Naraku said taking joy in the pain he caused. Violet eyes so full of despair glared at him, startling him in their intensity.

A loud screech of pain echoed through the hideaway.

And something in Kagome’s heart stirred.

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

They hadn’t been expecting it.

In fact it was the last thing they expected.

But it happened.

They had been attacked, with quick, swift accuracy. By the person they’d least suspected. Kagome. Naraku must’ve done something to her, controlled or manipulated her in one way. But no one could sense such a binding spell. They knew something was wrong when Kagome and the white haired male appeared, a little to close to comfort, and then attacked them. It was forward and suspicious and totally unlike Kagome. Especially considering Kagome was attacking them and it looked pretty serious. At least until they both turned and took off into the woods, no doubt back to Naraku’s hideout while the man himself showed up.

Kuronue had been returned to them, a broken youkai. He didn’t say anything and made no move to land on his feet, he just--fell. Naraku grinned obviously amused at them all. They were all in various stages of shock. Naraku turning back towards the forests smirked. His job was done Now he was going to sit back and watch as chaos ensued.

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

“ ;Kuronue...”

“Kuronue...”

“Kuronu e...”

He could vaguely hear his name being called but he just didn’t respond.

“Gone...” He mumbled. “There gone, all of them.”

Sesshoumaru frowned.

“What’s gone?”

“Memories...They...Spell...Memories...Replaced. ..Buried...” Kuronue continued to mumble. “Doesn’t...Remember...”

Genkai and Sesshoumaru exchanged looks.

“Kuronue, what---”

“Remplacement De Mémoire.” He said before shutting down completely.

They exchanged more looks. There was no known cure to that particular spell, they could only hope, hope that Kagome was strong enough to break it on her own. Hope that she could find her way back to them, without any aid. What could they do, if they tried and rescued her, there was a good chance she’d just turn around and kill them, especially if Naraku made them the ‘bad guys’ in her new memories.

They could only hope.

“N araku, why did you let him go, why give him back?”

“He has served his purpose.”

-------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------
A/n : Okay, for those of you who are wondering, Kagome will probably get her memories back sometime within the next couple of chapters.
