One: Spider Head
It
starts out with everyone except poor Shippo enjoying a boat ride. They
are soon joined by a girl who fell off a cliff while trying to escape
from a demon. Luckily Inuyasha saves her from her fall. She's happy
at first to be safe then gets all mad cuz Inuyasha's a demon! The girls
not very nice at first & finally Kagome gets her to talk. Then she
wants to help her & Inuyasha's like you've got to be kidding! So
after the girl leaves & falls again & gets hurt, the gang take
her to her home. (Inuyasha's not happy! ^^) They are greeted by an old
monk & the girl who's name is Nazuna, tells him what happened. The
monk invites them to stay the night as guests. The monk tells Nazuna's
story to Kagome. The monk ticks off Inyasha by saying he's a mortal
that looks demonic, but his soul isn't. So after a well placed "sit
Boy"! they stay the night. Kagome & Myoga try & make Inuyasha
feel better & not to be upset by the monk. Funny moment when Kagome
asks Inuyasha if he's afraid of spiders. Inuyasha tells them he's leaving
& sleeping alone! Meanwhile the ceiling is teeming with...Spider
demons! & in another part of the monastery.. Nazuna finds the monk
overcome by them! Back to Kagome, Inuyasha & Shippo, where Inuyasha
has a very bad battle with them & he can't transform the Tetsusaiga!
With Shippo's help they get out of there only to find something's wrong
with Inuyasha! He tells them he can't protect them & when he removes
the spider silk he looks completely different! He looks human!
Scroll
Two: New Moon
Meanwhile
Nazuna is told by the monk to leave as he can't help her either. He
tells her to go live with Inuyasha & company! Meanwhile Kagome &
Shippo are like "what happened to you?!" So Myoga tells them
that in the life of every half demon, there are times when his demon
power ebbs away. Since they are very vulnerable at that time they never
let anyone know about it. Everyone's like "why couldn't you trust
us?" & Inuyasha's like I trust no one! Which makes Kagome cry
& a fight breaks out! Then Shippo has a very brave moment when he
realizes he's got to protect them all as the only demon there! (awwwwweeee!!!!^^)
Then Nazuna shows up & tells them the demon dog can save them &
Inuyasha wants to leave & Nazuna's amazed he's human now. Then Kagome
realizes she left the jewel shards behind!!!! So they go back. They
fight a few spiders & then find the monk tied up in a huge spider
web. Meanwhile Nazuna tells Kagome a bit more about her past. That's
when Kagome has a feeling the monk wasn't what he seemed! Now the spider
monk has Inuyasha!
Scroll
Three: The Spider's Web
The
Spider monk battles Inuyasha & Shippo! Turns out the Spider monk
knew they had jewel shards with them! He wants the shards & he bites
Inuyasha! Shippo finds an acorn & uses it to get help from the girls!
The girls come there & they're ready to kick some spider butt until
Kagome sees Inuyasha hung up in the web & he doesn't look good.
Kagome uses Tetsusaiga (still sheathed) to help her reach Inuyasha.
The girls just manage to escape with them. Kagome is sooo worried about
Inuyasha cuz he's sooo cold. The spider monk goats!
Scroll
Four: Inside the Aura
Everyone
is worried Inuyasha will now die from the spider bite! Myoga even tries
to help by sucking out as much of the poison as he can! Then Inuyasha
moans & Kagome is right there! It's just tooo sweet as Inuyasha
asks her why she's crying& Kagome tells him she thought he was gone!
It soon turns into one of their many fights!!! ^^ Then the the spider
monk is mad cuz the jewel shards are gone. Meanwhile the girls are about
the smash something... It's Shippo & he rescued the shards! Meanwhile
the spider monk tries to get in the room they're all hiding in but can't
cuz Tetsusaiga is stuck in the door. So they have to wait until Inyasha
revives & his power is back. Everyone tries to sleep. Kagome wakes
up & notices Inuyasha is drenched like from a fever. She wipes his
forehead & he opens his eyes!!!! He asks her again why she was crying
& she tells him, then he asks to put his head in her lap. As he
drifts off into sleep again he tells her she smells good & that
he lied when he said he hated her scent! Kagome is surprised when Nazuna
tells her to get some sleep too! So she does& Nazuna is up alone.
She thinks about what happened & the spider monk calls out to her.
He lies & tells her that it's Inuyasha & Company's fault he
wound up possessed by a demon. He tells her he needs the shards to help
him exorcise the demons. He keeps at her until she gives in.Now they're
in trouble as he's in the room with them!!!! He eats the jewel shards!
& just as he's about to kill Inuyasha....
Scroll
Five: The Demon Reborn
They
get into another battle as Inuyasha's powers are returning!!! He battles
the spider monk, but because of the shards he might as well be doing
nothing! Then a stray part of the spider monk grabs Nazuna as Inuyasha
get tied up in spider silk! It's cuz he used Nazuna to shield himself
from Inuyasha as he knew Inuyasha wouldn't hurt her! Then the spider
demon tells her he was the one who killed her father! She gets ticked
off & stabs him with Tetsusaiga! Meanwhile just as it looks like
she's a goner, Inuyasha reaches in to save her!

good for Inuyasha & Nazuna! Then he saves her (to her amazement!)
even though he just wants to get the Tetsusaiga! They argue a bit before
he almost reaches it! Then the Spider monk is at it agin!!!! He grabs
it from Nazuna & the Tetsusaiga comes to life & Inuyasha starts
kicking butt again! YAY!!! The Spider monk is dead & Nazuna thanks
him! He tells her he was giving what he got & besides half the deed
was hers! (high praise indeed!^^) Then they find the shards of the jewel

& while staring at her he gets whacked for his trouble! (bad Kagome!)
It starts another fight that is over as quick as it started cuz they
see a weird old hag flying across the sky! Inuyasha says it's a demon
& he smells blood! They go off to investigate! They wind up back
at Kaede's village to find out what happened. It turns out someone robbed
Kikyo's grave of her bones! Kaede's worried about the trouble that will
happen because of this. Kikyo's bones have power too. Inuyasha then
gets Myoga to tell him about Urasue. He doesn't know much & when
Inuyasha mentions that he also smelled the damp earth of the grave as
well as the bones, he freaks. Then Kagome shows up & asks Inuyasha
if he's coming. She tells him his enemy deserves to rest in peace &
she asks if he can forget what happened between them before she realizes
he has looked in the eye since that happened. Then she asks him if she
looks like Kikyo so much he that he hates her! He tells her she got
it wrong.they look like they're about to kiss before Kagome freaks &
pushes him away. Kaede leaves & Kagome & Shippo follow her.
She asks Kaede if Kikyo & Inuyasha were really enemies. Inuyasha
also shows up & he acts like that's all they were but Kagome can
tell he's hiding something. Meanwhile somewhere in the mountains Urasue
is cooking up something...

Kagome
wonders about Inuyasha & Kikyo & figures out that they must
have loved each other.She's lost in her thoughts as Inuyasha smells
the demon. Inuyasha gets mad at her cuz she's looking at him like she
feels sorry for him. Kaede stops their fight by telling them they have
to hurry & get the bones back before something terrible happens.
Meanwhile Urasue is making something... there's a clay form that vaguely
looks like a person & when she tells it to it breaks open to reveal
a girl! It's Kikyo or would be Kikyo if her soul wasn't reborn into
Kagome, but Urasue doesn't know that. So Kikyo can't do much of anything,
which is good as Urasue wants her to be her servant. Then Urasue realizes
Kikyo's soul isn't there. Meanwhile the gang is closer to finding Urasue.
While on a rope bridge they or rather Inuyasha battles some clay soldiers.
Urasue shows up & realizes Kagome has Kikyo's soul! She destroys
the bridge & carries off Kagome. Then she puts Kagome into a pool
of herbal water so that her soul can go back to Kikyo.

Then Kaede wants to know exactly what happened between Kikyo & Inuyasha!
She wants to know as she has a feeling he's going to be reunited with
Kikyo! Meanwhile Kagome is lying in that herbal bath & Urasue tells
her she's soon going to return her soul to Kikyo! Then Urasue sees the
jewel shards, as she goes to get then Kagome tells he she can't have
them & somehow a sheild is up around Kagome! Meanwhile Inuyasha
& company are out to save Kagome! Flashbacks of Inuyasha's realtionship
with Kikyo. Then Kaede's asking him why he's so quiet(he must have been
thinking of Kikyo). She asks him if he's remembering the love he felt
for her. He quickly answers no & tells Kaede that Kikyo tricked
him! & that she knows the rest. But Kaede feels there's something
not right about what happened. Meanwhile Kagome still in the herb bath

shows up! They are surprised to see Kikyo & when Inuyasha calls
her name... the sheild cracks around Kahgome!

Ten: Betrayal
Silly
Inuyasha winds up calling Kikyo's name and that's all it took to break
the shiels around Kagome. When that happens he wonders what happened
& Urasue tells him her soul is leaving her to go back to Kikyo!
Urasue is like majorly happy at this! Meanwhile Shippo tells Kagome
to hang on & Kaede gets Urasue to confirm that she stole Kikyo's
bones to revive her! Best part about this is while Urasue thinks Kikyo
will be her slave, Kikyo shows her otherwise by destroying her! Kikyo
never wanted to be alive again! Anyways when Inuyasha calls to her she
turns to him all sweetly & then Turns on him by demanding to know
why he betrayed her!!!That's why she used the last of her power to catch
him in a spell before she died. Kikyo is like majorly PO-ed by this
qwhole situation & not even Kaede can calm her down. She rants about
what happened & won't listen to Inuyasha when he tells her he didn't
do it! All she wants to do is kill him!
