Finally Sesshomaru makes his appearance. I wonder how he will treat Kagome? Wow if I were in her place I would be so confused D; I wouldn't know what to pick...I'd still see if I could go with the demons >:3 But still.. Please continue this is really great

Kagome's rather too idealistic for my tastes in this fic. I'll keep reading though to see where it goes. It truly goes against my nature to sympathize with Kagome given the way you've portrayed her. Because of this I'm finding it difficult to identify with her. Despite this I find the story well written and with wonderful imagery. I can also appreciate Kagome's internal conflict in the face of two 'wrongs' even though I don't understand it her conflict.

Oh my, another wonderful chapter to this story. I'm so on the edge of my seat waiting for updates on this. So, glad to see this one and was well worth the wait. I can't wait for the next. Bravo!

This is such a good story so far! What will Kagome do? I'm a little worried that Sesshomaru will just kill her if she rescues him ... after all, she betrayed him and got them both captured. When will we discover the fate of Inuyasha? Please update again soon! :)

I'm so glad I finally sat down today to read all eight chapters! Your writing is flawless and flows wonderfully. As your read each sentence you can picture everything in your mind. I've really enjoyed reading this and I hope we all get to see an update soon. I'm really curious what type of trouble Kagome is going to get into next. I really hope she is able to find Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru and fingers crossed save them. But I fear what she is going to find of Inuyasha is going to be extremely horrifying and gut wrenching.

Nicely written, once again I am grounded by your superb writing. Loved the first story, hope to see more of this one soon. Keep it up!

oh man, I have this sinking feeling that the salve used to heal Kagome's ankle has something to do with Inuyasha (fresh, but impure...). I hope he's still alive!

This is one excellent story. I feel that there will be some sort of demented, twisted, but makes since explanation.. I can't wait ^^

Hmmm... Very thought provoking chapter. I loved the tale of Prometheus. I had remembered bits and pieces of it so it was nice that it was recited. I must say though, I am getting a little worried for Kagome. When she spoke out so boldly about the people who were killed by Sesshoumaru, I thought for sure she was going to get into trouble! I'm not so sure she will make out as easily in the next chapter!! I can't wait to read the next installment!!

I really do love your stories. Can't wait till you post up the next chapter. By the way, how many chapters do you suppose this story is going to be?

argg!! dang you!!! *walks away mummbling minor curses* stupid cliff hangers... stupid mean people in masks... lol, it was an amazing chapter! Can't wait until next Sunday, im addicted to the story! lmao! ^_^ ~Riku

You know what I really enjoy about your writing is that you have a way of using Rumiko's original characters, yet you create a universe all your own. This story, even though it's canon... wait, it is canon isn't it? I'll have to double check on that. XD Anyway, I love how you have created this whole society of people who seem to have some dark and mysterious agenda. It is very interesting to read about them and I can't wait to see how Kagome's meeting will go. I am quite interested to see who this Jianyu-sama is and what he's up to.

I really love this, Ladyb! The pace isn't too slow, but I'm just left hanging at the end of every word, wanting to know what's going to happen next. I was thinking about this story yesterday while I was driving, trying to figure out where you were going to go next, and what was going to happen. I rarely do that with any other fanfiction, so you've captured my attention, to say the least!

Update~ ;flail;

Wow o_o this is getting so good and INTENSE! Why would she do that though DX That's so sad that she would hurt Sesshomaru...she coulda atleast waited till those jerks were gone DX Please continue! <3 Hope the next update comes sooner XD; I'm like on the edge of my seat!

Ah! Bravo LadyB, but now I'm left sitting here, waiting for the next update! I can't wait to hear what happens to them, and what Sesshoumaru is going to say when he wakes up. He is going to wake up, right! You can't seal Sesshoumaru up in the early chapters and leave him silent, I like your characterization too much! Oh, and one more thing! RITE MOAR PLZ!~

my, my, my. what do we have here.i believe its your new story. another blast of awesomeness from team awesome. its to be expected of course.

I'm enjoying the new story so far Lady B! Definitely a different feel from SFFT, I'm always a fan of a well-written dark fic. I feel bad for Kagome, she is being exposed to a crueler side of life and doesn't seem to know how to deal with it. I can't wait to see what you have in store for the next chapter, keep up the awesome work!

A very interesting turn of events. I kinda laughed when one of the men touched Kagome's bottom, as it reminded me of a certain monk! LOL! Well, I must say that I am quite interested to see what happens next. I feel that trouble is on the horizon and I can't wait to see how it plays out.
