Chapter 4: Reality Bites

"You want me to do what?" Kagome asked, then remembered she should not ask questions. Displeasure flashed across Naraku's face, but he did not hit her this time.

"How much do you know about youkai?" he asked. "It must be very little." Kagome nodded slightly. "Youkai lack many of the refinements humans have like patience, control and anger management. The power they hold threatens to overtake their sanity every waking moment…and even a few sleeping. Most lesser youkai die before reaching maturity due to insanity. Only really powerful youkai, dai-youkai, seem able to harness this energy. Unlike humans, whose genetics is exceedingly complicated and often hides traits for generations, dai-youkai pass traits immediately on to offspring."

"The most powerful demon at this time is a dog demon. His father also produced a hanyou. Even though the hanyou is only half youkai he possessed more than half youkai power. Unfortunately we captured him as an adult so he has certain….attitudes already ingrained. Therefore we have been seeking to produce another hybrid."

"What do you need another hanyou for?" Naraku smiled this time. It wasn't a nice smile.

"They are very useful creatures and since they are so rare, it would be beneficial to study one from infancy."

"And I am supposed to willingly become the mate of this dai-youkai? They hate mikos. He'll kill me."

"Ah, we've already thought of that. He'll kill you as you are, yes. He can smell a virgin a mile away, just as I can." Kagome blushed bright red. Why was EVERYONE all of a sudden concerned with her virginity? "However, once that is out of the way he'll have to accept you. He will not be able to kill you after-" Naraku cut himself off. "That is all you need to know for now. You will be given a chamber. We'll be sending one to break you in."

"Break me in?" Kagome squeaked. That's it, she thought. I don't care what else happens, I'm leveling this place once I get away from him!!! Break me in! What am I, a horse?!

"Relax my dear. If you are not loosened up the sheer size of the dai-youkai would rip you apart. They are….quite well endowed," he said with a sick quirk of his lip. Kagome was coming to the quick conclusion this man was one sick, twisted man. "You will have no worries. If there is one thing Inuyasha knows how to do well it is how to loosen wenches up for his brother." Kagome looked ready to balk.

"Unless of course I should bring your friend back and give her to my wolf pack. They've been wanting a human toy for ages."

"No," Kagome said, voice wavering. "I'll do…what is necessary."

Rin woke in a small chamber. She moved to get up and found her hands were chained well above her head, cutting off circulation to her fingers and leaving a raw mark.

"Goddamn bitch. Just wait til I get my ass out of here." Rin began working her thumb around. "Just gotta pop you out of joint, then slid through. Thank goodness for tiny wrists." As she pulled on it her thoughts drifted to Kagome.

Why the fuck did you do that Kag? Weren't we partners? We're supposed to work together dammit! Or was that your ploy to get in? Make them feel like they had something over you? I sure hope so….I'd hate for you to think I can't handle my own, even with a demon. Fuckers don't realize they only have power over you if you give it to them.

She gave a moan as her thumb made a sickening crack and dislocated, allowing her to easily pull her fingers through the shackle. One down, one to go. Then she heard movement behind her at the door. She carefully kept her other arm up to appear still shacked up and turned to face the opening door.

Of all the youkai in the place, she could not have been more shocked to see who she did when the door opened.

Kagome wandered around the room in boredom.

It was red. Well, that was an understatement.

The sheets were red, the wall hangings were red, the pillows were red, the walls themselves were red. It was almost like the color of blood, but it had a strange warmer feeling to it. Kagome watched the camera in the far corner following her.

Who the hell is Inuyasha? Kaede never gave any names, although I know she didn't tell me everything she knew. If he's the brother of the dai-youkai why is he not a dai-youkai himself? Oh I wish Rin were here…. She would know what the hell is going on. Youkai are so confusing. I hope she's not having too much trouble wherever she ended up.

"We're sending him in," a voice said into the room. Kagome looked up at the camera with a bit of a frown. They were going to watch? Sick bastards.

I hope I can get the collar off before the youkai works his way into my pants. Otherwise I might have to "accidently" purify his ass. I don't want to kill any innocents.

"Inuyasha!" Miroku called out. "Lucky bastard, you're up again!"

"Fuck! All Sesshoumaru does is kill the wenches."

"You never know, this may be THE ONE!"

"Miroku, cut the bullshit. There is no ONE, there never will be a ONE. Sesshoumaru hates humans, plain and simple. Until they find a female who can make him submit they are fucking out of luck."

"Only female inu-youkai can accomplish that. For now you shall have to play stud again. I wish I could break in Sesshoumaru's women. Oh, those gorgeous women with-"

"Monk, shut the fuck up. You aren't the one who has to deal with all the damn crying virgins or filthy sluts. Now hand me that salve so I don't permanently hurt the wench."

"It amazes me you care so little for these women with death sentences, yet you bring them healing cream."

"Miroku, the least I can do for these girls is make sure they don't feel any pain….while I have to…. I don't wanna fucking discuss it. Go jack off in a corner!"

Inuyasha left Miroku nearly flattened against a wall. He got so touchy about the job he had to do. The job he was FORCED to do. Damn collar. If he didn't do as instructed he was punished. Excruciating pain sent through every nerve in his body, all because of the damn collar. Because of the damn collar he'd had to rape hundreds of women.

"Inuyasha," a familiar voice called out from the shadows. Sango peeked from the curtain she was hiding in. "Listen, I heard something you might want to know."

"What is it this time wench?"

"This new one, she's a miko. Virgin miko. Naraku's not sure how powerful she is. He thinks she's untrained, but she managed to put up a barrier without a thought earlier."

"So what? Sesshoumaru can kill Mikos, it just takes a little longer."

"There's more. Rin is here."

"Rin?" he said in a half whisper. "Dear gods. I hope she doesn't find Sesshoumaru. God knows how he would act around her with that damn collar. She is, after all, merely human."

"The miko came with Rin," Sango said. Inuyasha frowned.

"You think it's another rescue attempt? Fucking morons. They just don't get it, do they?" The collar gave him a warning shock. He was caught dallying. No time. Sango nodded, knowingly, and ducked back into the shadows. She had been one of the lucky ones. The demon who had been at her only made her infertile. She'd made him permanently dead because of it. Now she was kept as a servant. Naraku didn't dare risk another demon to get rid of her. He should have known better than to get a girl from a demon exterminating village.

Inuyasha steeled himself. In a few minutes he would ruin another girl. He felt disgusted, cheap, dirty….and so low. I should fight the collar more. I should just die instead of making these girls suffer.

But the collar kept him alive, if in constant pain. And if not him, who gave a damn, then which youkai would have the honors of violating the women.

"Here's our boy," Kagura said with a dark grin. "Have fun with the new miko. Hopefully she won't purify your ass. She should be a little more willing than the last one. She seems to have resigned herself to self sacrifice."

Inuyasha ignored her comments and allowed Kanna to pat him down. They were looking for the salve they knew he had it….but they never could find it and he didn't give it up. Since they could not prove he had it, they couldn't punish him. Oh, he'd learned long ago how well these collars worked. Naraku wanted to keep him at least mildly happy. It served his purpose to keep Inuyasha from killing his underlings. Inuyasha would gladly fight the pain of the collar to get Kagura's blood on his claws.

"Alright stud, go break the pretty filly. Maybe we'll all get lucky and she'll purify your brother. Then again, Kikyou tried and look where it got her."

Rage contorted Inuyasha's face, but he held his tongue. Kagura often brought Kikyou up. The miko he'd "broken" in 50 years ago. The one who had promised to free him. The one he had actually made love to rather than raped. She had died trying to purify Sesshoumaru, and Inuyasha blamed Naraku for every scream.

He stepped forward and pushed the door open.
