Chapter 13

"Inu-Yasha, Sango's back! I was sitting by the well, and she came back with Kirara! She knows where Naraku's castle is!"

Inu-Yasha looked at the little kitsune with a look of confusion on his face.

"Come on Inu-Yasha! Snap out of it! We can go save Kagome now."

"Shippo, go get Miroku and tell him we will meet in Kaede's hut."

"Okay!"

`Kagome, I will get you out safe, I swear on my life I will.'

Inu-Yasha sat in Kaede's hut waiting for his friends.

Sango, Miroku, Shippo, Kirara, and even Kaede came to the hut to try to come up with a plan to rescue Kagome from Naraku's castle.

"I just think we should go now! We'll know what to do when we get there!"

"Baka Inu-Yasha! We can not just rush into this. It may be a trap. Sango, didn't you say there were no guards at the entrance of the castle?"

"Yeah, do you think it is a trap?"

"Well, I think it pretty odd to have a castle filled with jewel shards and not one single guard to protect it, don't you?"

"Miroku is right…Inu-Yasha, we have to think this through before just rushing into it."

"Well, I can't just sit here and strategize while that bastard has not only Kikyo, but Kagome now too. I'm going now, and whoever wants to follow me can."

As Inu-Yasha walked away his friends followed reluctantly behind.

Sango led the way to the castle slowly, mostly because Miroku was not completely healed; and neither was Inu-Yasha, although he'd never admit that.

It took them almost a whole day walking to the castle. When they finally reached their destination, it was very dark and surrounded by miasma. They walked up to the front of the castle and when they looked inside they saw a very familiar face.

"K…K…Kohaku?"

Suddenly the boy fell to the ground and Sango rushed over to his side.

"No, please don't die Kohaku! Kaede, his jewel shard has been taken out…is he going to die?"

"I don't know Sango…I can take him back to the village and dress his wounds there."

"Kirara! Take Kaede and Kohaku to the village as fast as you can."

"Inu-Yasha followed Kaede to Kirara with the dying boy in his hands.

"Take good care of him Kaede."

"Uh huh…come on Kirara, there's no time to loose."

Suddenly there was a loud voice from the sky.

"Now that I have Kagome I do not need your pathetic brother. Without the jewel shards in his back he will definitely die. There is nothing you can do to stop me."

Suddenly there was a scream from within the castle.

"Kagome!"

"No Inu-Yasha, don't just run in there! It's exactly what he wants!"
