Chapter IV: The Reunion


When Miroku and Sango got back to the inn, Locke and Shippou were waiting for them in the room.

"Sango, do you think you could fix her wounds?"

"Yes. But Miroku and Shippou must leave the room. NOW!"

"Thank you Sango."

"Now. Turn around and sit down. Tell me what happened."

Locke told Sango what had happened. Just as he finished telling her and she had finished patching up Raquet.

"Miroku, get the bags ready!" Sango screamed, and it woke up Raquet.

"Hi. I'm Sango, " Sango said, "Glad to see you are awake."

Locke got up and brought a blanket and covered the cold girl.

"Get some sleep, ok?" Locke said nicely.

"Locke, we need to get back to the village."

"Ok, Sango. We will leave in an hour. Did you and Miroku…" Locke just smiled.

"Go talk to her." Sango said rather fast.

Sango went and got her bag and left to go talk to Shippou and Miroku.

Locke went over to he bed and sat down on it. He gently rubbed the side of her face till she woke up.

"Raquet, we have to leave for a village. I will carry you there. Is that ok?"

"Of course it is you silly fool." She put her arms around his shoulders and pulled him down into a kiss. "We will talk more and do more at the village." She said with a wink in her eye.


The walk back to the village took all afternoon. Inuyasha and Kagome were there. Both had a sad look on their faces. Kagome, Sango, and Raquet decided to go to the spring. They made all four of the boys sit in Kaide's hut with her watching them.

Once they got to the spring.

"Do you always make them do that?" Raquet asked.

"Mainly, it is for the monk. Locke just joined are group a week ago. He seems like he is a well-behaved guy. Inuyasha, Well that's Kagome's department." Sango said.

"Ok." Raquet said.

They finished washing off and were heading back to the village.
"How do you feel about Locke, Raquet?" Kagome

"He saved me from the demons. Plus, he is kind of cute. I guess I am in love with him."

"Ok. Could I talk to Sango for a minute alone, please?"

"Ok, Kagome. I'll have them start up dinner."

"Can you tell me what's wrong now Kagome?" asked Sango, "You look like something terrible happened.

Kagome sighed; she didn't want to think about it "A few days ago Kouga came and took me away from Inuyasha, and he accidentally slammed me into the side of a mountain near his clan and he…and he…" the girl trailed off.

Sango touched her arm. "Tell me Kagome, maybe I can help."

"Because I hit the wall so hard I lost the baby…" Kagome put her head in her hands, spilling a few tears. She couldn't change the past.

"Oh Kagome, I'm sorry." What else could she say? She didn't know that her friend was pregnant. <Maybe Inuyasha told her while they were alone on the rumor. > The exterminator was sure it must have been hard on her, but that wasn't really something they could replace.

"Are you okay?"

"I'll be alright soon." Kagome turned her attention to some bushes; she could have sworn they had just moved. Then a few yards away another bush moved. "I don't think we're alone, could it be Miroku or Inuyasha?" she asked.

"I don't like this Kagome." She said, finally seeing a pair of eyes in the bushes.

There was another rustle of leaves before a certain baboon came out. Kagome and Sango stared at each other, not really knowing what to do. Then, what they assumed to be Naraku came straight for them.

Sango, never leaving her boomerang behind, picked it up expertly and flung it at the demon. It missed him by a few inches before it came back to her in half. Kagome had left her arrows with Inuyasha, and now she was helpless. And she still had the jewel shards around her neck.

Naraku was being silent as he moved closer to attack Kagome, ready to rip her in half before her aura exploded around her, forming some kind of blue shield. Naraku had to jump back to avoid crashing into it. Kagome didn't know what happened; just that she hadn't been hurt. She looked to see Naraku aim himself for her again.

Before he could move an inch, Inuyasha had appeared and started attacking Naraku. "Stay away from Kagome!" he yelled, holding the glowing sword in front of him. Locke and Miroku were not far behind. Miroku ran to Sango who was sitting on the ground helplessly looking at her broken weapon. Locke drew one of his daggers and throws it at Naraku. Naraku caught it an inch from his face.

"I want the jewel Inuyasha." He said dangerously. "And I'll do anything to retrieve them." He took out a small, black orb from under his pelt, and threw it at the ground, causing a deep, black fog to settle on the surrounding area. He throws it back at Locke and it sunk in his chest. Locke collapsed on the ground

"Miroku, take the girls and get out of here!" he yelled. Miroku didn't waste a second while pulling Kagome and Sango behind him at a fast pace. They all wanted to stay to help Inuyasha, but their human lounges couldn't support the poison from the fog. The hanyou was on his own.
"Where is Raquet?" Miroku screamed.

"She went back to the village!" Kagome yelled back.



"When you die Inuyasha, I will have your wench dead and the jewel." He smiled evilly, before attacking Inuyasha with a sword. He managed to cut Inuyasha's arm, leaving him bleeding. The attack wasn't strong enough to do much damage, but it did hurt him.

"Whom do you think you're fighting?" yelled Inuyasha as he swung his sword in his Kaze no Kizo attack. He managed to hit Naraku in the chest, shredding the pelt, revealing that it was actually Naraku, not just a puppet. The red spider mark on his back proved it.

<He has gotten stronger. > Thought the demon. <But no match for me. > With that thought he threw his sword. Inuyasha quickly held up Tetsiga in front of him, holding off the attack with all his might. He finally managed to over throw the sword and it fell to the ground.

Inuyasha made his move, he ran straight for the demon before plunging the sword through his chest. Naraku instantly moved back, allowing the sword to slip out of him, his blood dripping out of the wound while two jewel shards fell from the cut to the ground. Naraku touched his wound, it wasn't too deep, but he'd rather fight off the hanyou when he was completely well and ready to fight.

"I'll return." He said before disappearing into the fog. A few seconds later the sky cleared, but all the surrounding shrubs and trees looked dead. But then the eye appeared, fifty pairs appeared. One by one they stepped out.

<Black wolves? > Inuyasha thought very fast, <What are they doing here? >

Then the last black wolf stepped out of the dark dead woods. He was double the size of the other wolves. He walked up to Locke's dead body. He lowered his head and pulled out the dagger in his chest. Then a blinding white light surrounds the two. Locke was picked up into the air. The huge wolf slowly disappeared into nothing. Inuyasha looked as Lockes wound in his chest closed up. His hair grew halfway down his back and turned pure black. That was when Inuyasha recognized the scent. Locke was part wolf-demon. This wolf was turning Locke into a full demon. Locke was placed back down on the ground and the white light disappeared.

Inuyasha walked over to Locke and woke him up.

"What happened?" Locke asked.

"You were part wolf-demon. When Naraku killed you and left, the wolves came out. They resurrected you and turned you into a full demon. Can you tell that your senses have been heightened?"

"Yes I can. We need to get back to the others."

"Yes we do. Lets not waste time."

Then Inuyasha quickly made his way to the two jewel shards on the ground, and then turned to run after Miroku, Sango, and Kagome. He hoped they were all safe and back in the village, but when Naraku was around, no one could be sure.
