Inuyasha froze. What was wrong with his Kagome? She was dressed differently, she had a dark aura, and she was pointing some type of small metal contraption at him. Even though he didn't know what it was, he could tell he was in danger.
"K-Kagome?" he mumbled unsurely.
"Did you hear me?" she repeated, eyes narrowing even more, mouth twisted in a frown.
"Kagome, what's wrong, you...don't you remember me?" he asked. She shrugged, now sneering.
"Now I suggest that you leave, if you want to live." Kagome pulled back the trigger. Who was this guy? Hell, she didn't even remember where she was. It was like reverse amnesia. She got back all of her old memories but lost the ones of this place and all of the recent events.
"But...what's wrong?" Inuyasha questioned, eyes widening. Finally, Kagome shrugged, slipping her gun back around her hip.
"Naw, you're not worth the effort. Dad should be coming soon. I wonder if I should meet him or tell him about all of you guys. He'd make a clean job of it, you wouldn't feel a thing."
"W-What?"
"Father smartass, Agent Nine already warned him. He should be coming soon. Then I'll be able to go back to America, and get off of this stupid island." Her gaze traveled to her skin-tight suit. It fit her snuggly but it had many tatters and holes in it. "Then maybe I can get a new outfit. And a gun, I bet this one doesn't even shoot right. And don't bother following me, I won't be here much longer." Inuyasha bit his lip. What had happened to his sweet Kagome?
"Kagome, don't you remember who I am?" She shook her head.
"And it's best I don't. You follow me, and I might start getting a temper. I'll send Dad on this whole island. Boy, that would be fun," she snickered. "I would suggest you crawl back up that hole you came from, and let me be."

Kagome could hear the choppers coming and she could even see a small speck of them in the horizon.
"I'll have to remember to hell him Agent Nine died. A loyal guy if there ever was one," she muttered. "I wish this had happened earlier. I kinda missed killing actually, especially since it made Dad so happy. But that guy earlier, it was unnerving…he acted as if he knew me…and…Oh whatever! He probably ran off with his tail between his legs!"
***
"I'm telling ya, something is wrong with Kagome!" Inuyasha growled.
"Aye, when she pointed that metal thing at me, even though I didn't know what it was, some kind of fear seized my old heart and told me not to bother her."
"What do you suppose happened?" Miroku asked, stroking his chin, deep in thought.
"Well, I gave Kagome some of her old stuff and a glazed look seemed to overcome her eyes, then her aura turned plain evil. She took all of her stuff with her, talking about getting what was stolen from her, and such."
"Yeah, and she said her father's people are coming and they might all be like Kagome! They might kill everyone on the whole island," Inuyasha finally figured out. "Something I won't be responsible for, especially after they just started trusting me."
"I'm worried about Kagome, something's wrong!" Sango cried, petting Shippo who had taken refugee in her arms.
"We need backup. Something to snap her out of this before she gets us killed and everyone else around."
"But who? When old Yurai turned out to be a traitor, everyone fled!"
"We need someone loyal."
"Someone strong."
"In strength and…"
"Great numbers."
"Like who?" Inuyasha asked, completely missing the point.
"Some one like Kouga."
"AW! HELL NO!"
***
The helicopters were significantly closer. Excitement welled up in Kagome's heart, but she felt the slightest hint of foreboding. Men in black suits armed with giant guns slipped down ropes that extended from the copters and landed gently on the sparkling tan sand.
"Kagome?" the first one asked. She nodded dumbly as the man slipped a walkie-talkie from his pocket. "Boss, we got her. You coming soon?" There was some static and the man nodded.
"Where have you been all this time? We were worried about you A-1-N!"
"Washed up on the island. Sherman made a clean job of me. Who won?"
"Us of course!" the second one exclaimed. "Boss should be coming up soon, you know. He was worried sick. Thought he lost one of his best agents."
"Yeah, he says that now," Kagome muttered under her breath. Not to mention he lost a daughter as well.
"Look!" The first one pointed to a huge, jet black helicopter as it skimmed the surface of the water, making small, churning waves underneath it. It landed with a loud thump on the beach and a man, wearing a tight black leather outfit stumbled out of the door, holding it open for the other man inside.
Kagome held her breath. This would be the first time she saw her father in months.
Finally, after what seemed like an eternity, she saw the toe of extremely expensive black shoes and finally, a man, a little thick in the upper body with streaming black hair that matched everyone's clothes, with piercing, flaming red eyes and blue eye shadow found his way to her.
"Ah, Kagome. You wouldn't believe how much we all fretted about you. I am glad we have found you." That queasy feeling settled in the pit of her stomach. No hugs? No smiles? He just stood, there, grimly, staring at her.
"Uh…arigato," Kagome replied unsteadily.
"I see you have tried to lead your former life. It seems that you were laced with amnesia for quite some time. Are you glad you have your memories back?" She nodded, not knowing what else to say.
"But something is missing. I can't remember anyone on this island, and this guy, came up to me, insisting that I knew him."
"So you wouldn't care if we annihilated the island?" Naraku asked, in his deep, rich voice, as the wind stirred up his black locks. "We have spent all of our energy searching for you. We are itching for slaughter." Something doesn't seem right! Why am I not happy to see him? I have my memories, I have everything. My former family, my weapons, action, excitement, adventure. For some reason I don't want to kill this island! But I have to. I don't want to disappoint Dad anymore.
So, Kagome nodded.
"Yes."
***
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" a large, masculine screech sounded through the forest. "How dare you let evil harm my precious Kagome!"
"What do you expect, fleabag? I wasn't there, so none of this is my fault! We just need your help, but if you don't want to…" Kouga shook his head frantically.
"My pack wouldn't hesitate in aiding one of our own."
"Nani?"
"Kagome is my woman, dog-turd, so…" He let his pause linger. "She is one of us."
"GRRRRRRRR!"
"I know, rejection hurts, dog-turd, but I guess a half-breed like you is used to it!" That struck a nerve and Inuyasha would've launched himself onto Kouga if he hadn't been pulled back by Sango, a transformed Kirara and Shippo, and Miroku.
"Shame that humans can control you, muttface."
"Look, Kouga, Inuyasha, this whole island could be in danger if you keep fighting and decline our plead for help!" Sango said, all business-like. "Now either we can work together or you can leave." They both snarled at her, but nodded their heads deftly.
"Now, all you have to do is assemble your pack and we will head out to the beach to stop any chaos that might have started. If Kagome's people have come back, we have to get her and drive them out of here."
"Consider it done, human." Kouga tipped back his head, letting out a loud, echoing howl and about 100 more wolves and wolf-demons answered.
"Good, now hopefully you guys all know the plan."
"Yeah."
***
"Naraku, I mean, Dad, there might be some minor intrusions when we try to you know…"
"Wipe out all life." Yeah, a great way to make me feel better!
"Yup, that…are you sure…"
"You could have declined my offer, but now, since the deal was sealed, at my command, my troops will storm the island. We are equipped with bombs and guns. Such a primitive island will easily be taken out. But, I will send you first. If they are on to us, divert their attention, or finish them off with this." He snapped his fingers and a man scuttled up to her, handing her a shiny, polished new gun. Kagome looked at it in awe.
"Wow…arigato, Dad."
"It's nothing," he answered stonily. "Now are you ready?"
"Yes."
***
Kouga and his pack were irritating Inuyasha already. They refused to listen to his orders, only Kouga's, and he didn't have an idea about what the hell he was doing. Sango was flying overhead with Kirara and Miroku sat on a pink-bubble Shippo. They refused to let him join them, saying that Kouga needed some help. He wouldn't be doing this if it wasn't for his Kagome. Gah! Why do I keep saying that? It's not like I claimed her. Maybe she likes Kouga better now…What the hell am I thinking about that? I'm gonna save her, not some dimwitted fleabag.
Suddenly, they heard the crashing of branches and a panting Kagome stood in front of them. Kouga had to refrain himself from jumping her and Inuyasha just on looked carefully.
"Kagome?" She walked up, and hugged him deeply. Inuyasha never though this would occur, but he found himself slightly recoiling from her scent. She smelt like too much men and death, and he could only pick up a faint hint of her vanilla scent.
"Follow me," she said quietly.
They all complied, not knowing what would happen, but Inuyasha was slightly suspicious. Hadn't only a moment ago she threatened to take his life by her hands? Shaking it off he followed, as he got closer and closer to the beach, the smell of death and many men increased and invaded his nose.
Kagome sprung from the forest. The wolf pack and Inuyasha followed, Sango, Miroku, Shippo, and Kirara floated cautiously overhead.
Then, everyone saw it. Swarms and swarms of men in black suits carrying terrifying mini cannons(guns) in their hands. But, one man caught their attention. He was bigger than all the rest, his glance made others cower, and his aura was darker that a shadow on a bright day.
"Ah, Kagome, you have done well. You have brought the rebels straight to us." She snickered, and turned to them, that wicked, unnerving look alight in her eyes again.
"Fools!" she sneered. "You fell right into my trap."
Yeah! I finished the fifteenth chapter! And I figured out how to add bolds, underlines, and italics to my story so that's why I am overdoing it! But I am so happy. Hope you enjoyed this chapter - though you might not like the cliffhanger, and I promise to update soon. The climax of this story will be short, followed by a long resolution and an epilogue. Anyway, remember to review. Later Days!
