Chapter 27 – The Meeting & The Double Cross


Kagome trekked through the woods to the meeting spot, it had taken some convincing but they eventually let her leave; her last few minutes with the group were… interesting though.

~~~ Previously ~~~

“It’ll work Inuyasha! Trust me!” Kagome growled.
“Like hell! That bastard is gunna turn around and double cross you in a second!” Inuyasha yelled; this was getting nowhere fast.
“Idiot! That’s why we’re doing it FIRST! That’s what the whole plan was before or weren’t you listening?!” she hissed with narrow eyes.
“’Course I was listening! What, you think I’m stupid or somethin?” he asked and received blank stares from everyone. “OI!” he yelled.
Kagome sighed, “Look Inuyasha, I know this is hard and we don’t know what’s going to happen but if we DON’T do this we don’t know what is going to happen to Rin. Now I know this is a big thing to ask because of the situation but please trust me.” She whispered as she hugged him.
“I do trust you Kagome, I just don’t trust him” he said as he held her close.
“I know Inuyasha but…” her attempts to comfort her friend were shattered by a low growling sound coming from behind her.
“Oi! What are you growlin at bastard!” Inuyasha spat at his brother.
“Inuyasha!” Kagome chastised as she slapped him on the chest. “Don’t call your brother that!”
“I wanna know why the fuck he’s growlin for.” He said pointing to his snarling half-brother.
“Oh god.” Kagome sighed as she looked over at him, “SMITE ME NOW!” she yelled.
Inuyasha looked at Kagome as if she was crazy, “Why the hell would you want that!?” he screeched, looking around for some sort of lightning or something that was going to smite Kagome with wide, frightful eyes.”It was just a…. oh forget it!” she sighed, “it’s lost on you anyway.” She mumbled.
“what the hell do you mean by that!” he asked eyes snapping back to her.
“Never mind that we have bigger problems…. Namely your brother who is snarling at you and looks like he’s thinking of ways to turn your insides into weave baskets.” Kagome sighed as she saw Sesshomaru’s ears twitch and a grin spread on his face…. Not good.
“That is IT!” she hissed as she pushed away from Inuyasha and stormed upto Sesshomaru, who’s eye had not let his brother.
“Sesshomaru look at me!” Kagome whispered, when he didn’t and continued to stare at Inuyasha something clicked in his mind and his eyes went impossibly wide.
“WHAT THE FUCK! HE’S JEALOUS! THAT BASTARD IS JEALOUS!” Inuyasha yelled as he fell on his ass from shock and received a rise in volume of the growling as a response.
“Is that true Sesshomaru?” Kagome whispered with her head bowed, Sesshomaru looked down at the almost silent question and the growling instantly stopped.
“I do not like him touching that which is under this Sesshomaru’s protection, it will be sullied by his hands.” He growled out glaring at his brother.
“Why you… don’t look down on me!” Inuyasha yelled drawing his sword.”SIT! *WHAM* Sorry Inuyasha but now is not the time for sibling rivalry.” Kagome sighed and looked up at Sesshomaru. “And you!” she hissed as she poked him in the chest. “Don’t provoke him! He’s bad enough as it is without you feeding the flame!” Sesshomaru looked at her with a bored expression when and idea struck him, yes it was just to stir his brother…. Ok MOSTLY to stir his brother, or at least that was what he told himself as a predatory grin spread across his face.
Kagome looked up at him with wide eyes, ‘uh oh… not good, must get away.’ She thought to herself as she started to back away slowly only to be pulled to Sesshomaru’s chest with an “oomph”
“Sesshomaru what are you…” she began to ask as she looked up but was cut short when warm soft lips crashed down on hers and the camp was silent in shock…. again.
“Let go of her you bastard.” Inuyasha yelled and Kagome felt him smirk against her lips, that bastard kissed her only to anger his brother!
Kagome pushed him away with a surprising show of strength and stood there staring at the ground with fists clenched and the group went silent, they could all see her energy swirling around her. Suddenly she looked up with hated burning in her eyes and almost made the group faint *SLAP* she slapped him… she had slapped Sesshomaru.
“Now you listen to me,” she whispered venomously, “If you think I am some play thing for you to abuse to get a rise out of your brother you’re dead wrong. I am here to do a job and I’m going to do it with or without your help but do NOT USE ME FOR YOUR AMUSEMENT!” she yelled and began to walk from camp, but she stoped at the edge and looked over her shoulder, “Remember the plan.”
And with that she faded into the forest leaving the group to fall to the ground in relief that Sesshomaru didn’t kill her; and the Tai-Youkai, in an uncharacteristic display of emotion with wide eyes and a hand placed on his red stinging cheek staring at the place she had been only moments ago.

~~~ Present ~~~

Ok maybe she didn’t have to slap him but he just made her so…. So…. MAD! Kagome kicked a stray pebble. “Stupid males.” She mumbled.
She had been walking for just under two hours and she was almost at the meeting place, she had been thinking on what happened the whole trip and now she felt really bad for the way she acted, she was dragged from her thoughs by a chuckle.
“Right on time I see, and alone… good girl.” Came a voice from the shadows.”Ok, I’m here Naraku… what do you want?” Kagome asked.
“Quick to get to the point aren’t we… no matter I will have what I want soon enough.” Naraku said with a wicked gleam in his eye.
“Ok now before we get down to business where is Rin?” Kagome asked.
“The child is right here.” He said as Rin materialised from the shadows.
“KAGOME- CHAN!” Rin yelled in panic at seeing her, “NO! DON’T! GO BACK! IT’S A TRAP!” Rin yelled with tears streaming down her face as she stared helplessly at Kagome.
“I know it is Rin.” She whispered as she looked at the child with her own teary eyes.
“Why…?” Rin asked in a whisper.
“Silence you brat!” Naraku hissed as he hit Rin in the back of the head effectively making her unconscious.
“RIN!” Kagome screamed as she went to move forward to help the small child but stopped short when Naraku’s spoke.
“So you knew it was a trap and yet you came anyway…. How idiotic.” He chuckled.
“If I didn’t come you would have killed Rin slowly and painfully… I’m right aren’t I” she asked looking at the ground.
Naraku chuckled, “You know me well my dear Kagome, yes I would have killed the child; and I would have made every second of it as painful as possible.”
“You’re a monster.” Kagome hissed as she looked at him.
“You still don’t know what I was going to ask for Kagome my dear.” Naraku said with a strange gleam in his eye.
“The jewel shards, I know! If you want them so damn bad then god damn well have them!” she said as she tore them from her neck and prepared to throw them.
“You really think that is what I am after?” Naraku outright laughed.
“What?” Kagome said thrown for a loop, “If it’s not the jewel shards you want for Rin then what is it?” Kagome asked.
“Why the answer is obvious Kagome, you only brought two things with you didn’t you? If I don’t want the shards there is only one thing left I could want.” Naraku stated.
‘What the hell does he mean! The only things I brought with me are the jewel shards! I don’t HAVE anything else!’ Kagome was thinking as fast as she could what the hell could he want! Suddenly something struck Kagome ‘wait… he said I brought two things with me, and he doesn’t want the jewel shards like he said so that means he wants….’ Kagome’s eyes widened, “Me…” she whispered in disbelief.
“Congratulations you figured it out!” Naraku stated clapping.
“I WILL NEVER GO WITH YOU!” Kagome yelled in defiance.
“Oh?... if you don’t I’ll slit this childs throat right here and you will have her blood on your hands.” He hissed through clenched teeth as he dragged Rin up by her hair and placed a deadly claw against her throat.
“DON’T!” Kagome yelled reaching out to the child, “If… if I go with you will you let her stay here so the others can find her?” Kagome asked looking over her shoulder.
“Agreed.” Naraku said a hungry look in his eyes.
“Send her over to me first so I know you won’t disappear with us both.” Kagome stated.
“Very well.” Naraku sighed as he roughly woke the child up and sent her over to Kagome.
“KAGOME!” Rin cried out as she ran to her and embraced her.
“I knew we would get you back.” Kagome whispered.
“This is wonderful and all but it’s time to leave.” Naraku sarcastically bit out.
“We’re not going anywhere Naraku.” Kagome stated as she made gestures with her hands and suddenly their little group was surrounding her.
“You feisty little bitch! You double crossed me!” Naraku laughed, “Well sorry to burst your little bubble but so did i.” he stated with a grin as the ground beneath Kagome turned black and started to drag her down. In a reflex action she pushed the jewel shards into Rin’s hands and her to Sesshomaru just before the ground swallowed her whole.
“I always get what I want… this time is no different!” Naraku chuckled as he disappeared into the darkness to the sound of Kagome’s friend calling out to her through the darkness.
