Rescued
Recap of Last Chappie:
=I woke up with a major migraine. 'Mio.. what happened..' I waited. No answer. 'Mio?' Still none. 'Mio?! Where are you?!' I opened my eyes. We were in a dungeon. By we, I meant all the guys and me. Where were all the females?! "Guys! Get up now!"

Simultaneous groans. "Ugh.. What happened?" Inuyasha was the first one to get up, followed closely by everyone else with Shippo getting up last.

I started to panic. "All the females except me have been captured! And I can't help them! Why didn't they take me?! It must've been my hood.. they thought I was male.." *shudder*

"Feh, They probably thought you were too weak. And why can't you help them?" Inuyasha sneered as he turned around with everyone else to look at me.

I sighed as I turned around. "Because I'm human."=

Unforgiving Memories
Rescued!
Kag's POV

Inuyasha turned to look at me. "What do you mean you're human?"

How stupid could Inuyasha be? I enunciated it for him. "I am hu~man. Understand it now? What are we suppoused to do guys?"

"We could just leave them there.." Kouga said as Miroku and I glared at him. "..Then again.. maybe not.."

"They're all weak wenches. They're meant to be captured."

"That's what you say hanyou. But what about that other hanyou that you seem to have a fascination with?"

Inuyasha didn't say anything and looked at the ground sheepishly. I raised an eyebrow. "Haru? But Inu. Don't you already have Kikyo? You said that Kikyo is the best woman there ever was. So why would you want to break another woman's heart. Hmm?" I glared at him coldly.

Miroku walked over to me. "Kagome-sama. We all know how you feel. And we all feel so sorry for you.. Perhaps I could help with the pain?" He flashed me his 'famed' perverted grin.

My eye started to twitch. "Miroku-sama. You have three seconds to move your hand away from my butt. If you do not, I will make sure you can never reproduce or speak again."

"But Kagome-sama.. I know you-"

I snapped and hit him, knocking him unconscious. "Do it again and I will tell Sango-chan." I turned to look at everyone else. "Any more bright ideas?"

Shippo jumped up and hugged me. "Can I help? 'Cause this is the Kitsune city! And I'm a Kitsune. So can I help? Please, please, please?"

I set him down and smiled at him. "We'll think of something."

"Shippo-chan.. what about this? As Shippo put it, this is the Kitsune City.. so maybe.. Shippo could act as a slave trader.. and we could be the slaves. Shippo would use the Shikon to power up his transformations."

"Keh! I won't be that kid's slave!"

"Inuyasha. Osuwari."

As Inuyasha ate dirt, we looked at Miroku. "You think it would work?"

"There is nothing going against us at the moment.."

We all looked at him. Then we looked at each other. Finally Kouga exclaimed. "It's so crazy, it just might work! Let's do it guys!"

I squatted down to Shippo's level. "Ok, Shippo-chan. You have a big responsibility. I'm going to give you a big part of the Shikon no Tama so that you can transform all of us. Ok?"

He got an excited gleam in his eyes. "Ok, Kagome-mama! I'll do my best!"

"Miroku.. if this does not work.. you are in ~big~ trouble!"

"{Gulp} Y-yes.. Kagome-sama.."

"Good! Now we all know what we are doing right? So! Let's go do it! Shippo, here is the jewel shard."

"Ok.. I need a couple of leaves.. Got 'em! Ok! TRANSFORM!"

We all went poof in a big puff of smoke. I looked around at everyone. Shippo had on a gold plated tunic with orange stitching for the seams, some brown trousers and steal-toed boots. Inuyasha was dressed in red rags that were covered in dirt, blood, and some other substance that I didn't want to know, and looked human, but he still had all his hanyou abilities. It was the same with Kouga, only he had blue rags, Miroku had purple, Sesshomaru had a goldish color, and I had on green rags. All of our weapons were concealed.

"So how are we going to get out of here?" I asked.

"If I look rich enough, I should be able to get us out of the prison." Shippo said. "Excuse me! Guard! Guard! Can you hear me?"

A guard walked over. "What?!"

"I believe you have caught the wrong person. See, I am a slave trader and you knocked the slaves and I unconscious. I woke up and I was here. Is there any particular reason why?"

"You were with that group, were you not?"

"What group? We walked up to the gate and apparently walked right into the vapors that were left from this ‘other’ group."

He eyed us suspiciously. "Why do you address your slaves like they are people? Why do they even have rags?"

"Because they are money. Who would want a slave that is already battered and beaten?"

"True. Here get out and go." He unlocked the cell and walked away.

"Shippo-chan!" I whispered. "How did you do that?"

"My pupil has succeeded! It is a jolly good day!" Miroku cried with tears in his eyes.

"I've been taking lessons from Miroku! They're really fun!"

I gave Miroku the evil eye. "You haven't taught him anything ~inappropriate~.. have you?" I swear you could see the flames around me.

He sweatdropped. "What would be counted as inappropriate?"

I glared at him. "We will talk about his later Miro-~chan~." He gulped as he turned a pasty white color. "Let's go now Shippo-chan. By the way everyone, slaves never make eye contact with anyone, they do not speak unless spoken to, and they must do anything their master wishes." I saw Inuyasha open his mouth to start to speak. "Osuwari. Shut up."

Inuyasha ate more dirt. Boy, he must be hungry! "Shippo-chan, lead the way."

"Hai." We followed Shippo out into the middle of the city.

"You there, slave trader. How much for your female slave?"

"I will not sell them to you. They are a special order for Leader." Shippo spoke calmly while walking away. We made our way to the castle, hesitantly walked up to the door, and knocked.

{KNOCK}
{KNOCK}
{KNOCK}

A servant opened the door. "Yes? Who do you wish to see?"

"We have a bargain with leader. I would also like a tour of the mansion."

"Right away sir." The servant walked us down a hallway and she pointed to the left. "This is the servants' room. There is another door leading to the kitchen through the servant’s quarters. If you need anything come here." She pointed to the right. "This leads out to the dojo and training hall." We continued along the hallway. She again pointed to the right and the left. "To the left is a way out to the gardens and to the right are the dungeons." We walked further up ahead. Now there were three doors. "On the left is Milord and Milady’s chamber. On the right are the guest quarters. In front of us is the throne room, which is also used as a receiving room. Do you need me to show you around your chambers Lord.."

"Shidoa. And no I do not need you to show me around the room. Thank you."

"Whatever you wish Lord Shidoa."

"You are dismissed."

"Good day Lord Shidoa." The servant woman bowed and walked out of the door. A few seconds later she walked back in. "Milord and Milady will see you once you have settled in." She walked back out again.

I finally looked up. "Geez. I thought she would never leave. So what are we going to do now?"

"I'll go talk to the Leader and you guys can sneak off to the dungeons and free the girls." Shippo exclaimed bravely. "I will wait for you in the middle of the town square.

"Hai. Won't you need us to show to Leader though?"

Shippo thought. "I guess.. I will dismiss you after he has looked you all over. You will be on your own for there. I will see you at the fountain in the middle of town when there is no more moon in the sky."

"Hai.. hai.. let's go. If we mess this up guys, it's our heads."

In a loud voice, Shippo said, "Slaves follow me." He walked out of the door and to the big doors in the middle of the hallway. The attendant there bowed and announced our presence. "The slave trader, Lord Shidoa is here." He bowed again and left.

"Lord Shidoa. I hear you bring me slaves? Let me see them. Slaves, come forth."

We walked forward. "Ah.. But tell me Lord Shidoa. Why do you only have one female slave? They are the most.. entertaining.." He chuckled. 'Pig.' "For now keep them in the dungeons. They will be well cared for there. Guards."

The guards walked forward and took us (the 'slaves') to the dungeon. "If you too much noise, I will not hesitate to make sure you can make no more." They threw us in a cell and locked the door. Then, they left. I looked around, I could still kinda see in the dim light. There were three really big cells, with holes in the corners of each and then there was a rack by the door with the keys on it. 'I always wondered why they put the keys in the same room as the prisoners. O well.' I looked over to the cell next to us. It seems the females were still knocked out. In the last cell, there was a little girl I think. I couldn't really tell, due to the lighting.

"Sango! Haru! Mio! Sai! Wake up dangit!" I heard some groans. "You guys ok?"

"I feel like I was hit by a semi.. Ugh.." Sai groaned.

"What's a se-mi?"

"Nothing. Never mind." Let's get you out of here."

"But how?"

"Sesshomaru-sama, if you would do the honors." Sesshomaru walked forward and sliced the door off its hinges with his claws. I ran and grabbed the keys and unlocked the girls. "You guys ok?"

"Ya, well be fine." Sango said. They grabbed their weapons and we turned to leave when I remembered the little girl in the last cell.

"Hold on a minute." I walked to the last cell and unlocked it. The girl, startled, looked up at me with fearful, wide eyes.

"Who are you? Are you here to take me to the execution? I swear! It was an accident!"

"What are you talking about? We're just here to free our friends, and you if you want to be let out."

"Oh, yes! Please!"

"What did you do to get you locked in here kit?" Kouga asked.

"I guess it's the least I could do to thank you for freeing me.."

*FLASHBACK*
"Mommy, I'm hungry.." The little kit said.

"I'll go find you some food, dear." The kit's mother walked off.

"Mommy will take to long. I'm gonna find my own food." The little girl walked for a little bit and found a big house. 'Maybe there's food in here!' She ran inside and she smelled something cooking. She followed her nose until she found a tray with circular pastries on it. They had holes in the middle. 'Maybe they are broken and that's why they have the holes in them. O well, maybe if I eat them, I can find out." The little girl sat there for a half an hour and pigged out on the pastries. She ended up eating too much and fell asleep. A cook walked in. "Oh my gosh! This young rascal has eaten Milord’s' favorite dish! She must be sent to the dungeons!" The cook walked to the dungeons and threw her in.
*END FLASHBACK*

"And that is how I ended up here." Sai and I sweatdropped.

"She got thrown into the dungeon because of some half eaten donuts? How gay.. The least she coulda done was eaten them all. Shesh. O well let's get out of here.. Kouga, how many guards are outside the door?"

{Sniff} "Only one Kagome."

I looked at Sesshomaru and then Kouga. "Your swords, if you please." They handed them to me. "Thank you." I started to crouch up the steps along the wall. I opened the door and looked out. Once. Twice. Three times. Then I ran out. {Pit-Pat. Pit-Pat.} The guard turned to me.

"Nin-ja???"

I pulled the swords in front of his neck and cut him across the throat. I sheathed the swords and pumped my fists into the air. "Woot! Assassinations!" They stared at me. "What?!"

Sai walked forward and clapped me on the shoulder ans shook her head sadly. "I am sorry to say, but I think you have been playing too many ninja games my dear friend."

"B-But.. they're just so.. so.. ninja-ish!"

"That's what they are made to be Kagome."

"Oh.." The others looked lost. "Well, here you go Kouga, Sesshomaru." I handed them the bloodied swords.

"O..k.." They mumbled.

"What are we suppoused to do now?"

Everyone looked at the kit. "What's your name, again?"

"Utsukushiiiriai. Utsu for short."

"Ok, Utsu, we are going to get out of here." Sai explained.

"Do I get to do more assassinations?!"

"No."

"Phooey. You're no fun."

"I try." Sai mumbled sarcastically.

"Can we go already?!" Everyone else harshly whispered.

"Fine, fine." We mumbled. "Let's go."

We walked down the hall and to the front door. 'I wonder where all the guards are..' We walked outside and found all of the guards lying on the ground. "Dangit! Someone took my assassinations!"

"Dork, they are only unconscious. Stop running around like a frikken uber happy furby on crack! I swear, the things I put up with."

"Sai shut it. Let's go find Shippo in the town square. By the way.. why do they call it the town square.. if it's a circle?"

{Sweatdrop} "Who votes we knock her unconscious?"

"I do."

"Me."

"Do it."

"She scares me."

"Ya."

"Get it over with."

"Hurry up woman."

"I think it would be wise."

"Forgive us Kagome."

"Feh."

"Moo."

Everyone else looked around. "Where the heck did Old Bessie come from?"

I pointed to the horizon. "Look. The sun rose."

"Then that means.."

"Yup, I'm a hanyou again. Let's go." I walked off and heard the others following me. {Sniff.} "Shippo, get out of the bushes."

"Hai, hai.." {Sniff.} "Who's that?" He pointed to Utsu.

"I am Utsukushiiiriai. Utsu for short. Nice to meet you."

"Nice to meet you too! Want to be my new playmate?"

"Ok!" They ran off. How cute. I breathed in; in relief of saving the girls. Then I paused. I inhaled again. Crap. [We're surrounded.] Everyone stiffened and grabbed their weapons. [Shippo, Utsu. Get back here. NOW!]

Everyone got into a battle stance. I threw out my senses. There were just too friggen many! [There's too many! We have to retreat!!]

'Not without a fight!'

[I don't want you guys to die!]

'We can do this!' They charged to all the youkai.

'Crap.. We're not going to make it.. If anyone gets hurt, we are leaving immediately.' I charged forward. {Hack. Stab. Pull. Hack. Stab. Pull. SHHRK!!} I looked down. ‘Heh, someone cut through me.’ Apparently it was poisoned. 'It hurts.. so much.' There was a blinding flash and then I was drifting in the darkness in pure bliss. (A/N: No! She is not dead! I'll try not to kill her off again. :P)

General POV

Sango looked to Miroku. "Kagome was right! There are too many!"

"Where is she?!" Miroku shouted back.

Midoriko pointed. "Look!" They all looked to where Kagome was and they saw her face contort in pain. There was a blinding flash and distantly they heard the screams of dying youkai. Everyone ran to Kagome when she passed out. Only Utsu said something that made everyone look.

"Where are we?" They all looked around. They were in a glade with running water. There was also a conveniently placed cabin in the middle of the glade. "I guess we will stay here.." As they explored they found there were rooms for everyone.

"Let's set my woman in here! She can rest well here." Kouga said.

"Fine, fine. Let's just get her taken care of." Sai told him quickly.

“And she’s not your woman!”

“Yes she is Dog Turd!”

{Growl.}
{Growl.}

Sai shook her head. ‘Some things just never change.’

-1 WEEK LATER-

Even though Kagome had woken up for a few minutes the past couple of days, it was still a major shock when she shot up from the bed with a dazed look in her eyes. It chilled everyone to the bone when she said,

"It is the seventh month. Naraku is coming for us today."
