***
The previous evening
"Kohaku..." Sango murmured softly into the dark, her voice catching in a sigh, and tears threating to spill from her eyes.
It just wasn't FAIR. Her family had all died a horrible death, one she had nearly shared, because of Naraku. And now her brother was not quite alive, but not quite dead, in the service of the man that had caused it all. If only I'd understood...If I hadn't...this might not have happened to him...
She wanted desperately to free him, and restore her beloved brother to life, but...was that fair? By the time they finally managed to track down the monster, who knows what would weigh down her brother's conscience? Would he wish for death? Was it her fault it had happened this way?
"I wish it was me, suffering in his place..."
As it had been with Ranma, the wish was granted...though not in a way she might have expected...

Now. She awoke suddenly, the utter darkness of the room pierced by a wide rectangle of light, framing a sillohette of a man. At first, she wondered it it was Inu-Yasha, but when he stepped into the room, she recognized the man she had come to know and hate, the human looking face Naraku wore. The deep, smooth voice filled the room...and something within her as her enemy spoke.
"Kohaku. Inu-Yasha's group has returned to the village. Determine their intentions, and if they were successful in retrieving the shard."
Sango wanted to shudder with loathing, but she found she could to no more than bow, softly agreeing to the demand. Out of the corners of her eyes, she caught a glimpse of her armour, familiar, yet not of the colors she associated with her own, and the black jumpsuit beneath it stretched out over a flat, small chest, unlike the one she recognized as her own...
Under the impetus from Naraku's command, she darted from the building and took to the trees, heading for where she remembered camping with the others the previous evening. I am in the body of Kohaku...Dear Kami, what happened? she wondered, a faint sense of dread coming over her as her new body gained speed...
