"Kohaku didn't kill Kagome, even though he could have. Does that mean he disobeyed Naraku's orders. If so, then he still has a will of his own, even if his mind is being controlled."

It is inside me. I feel it spreading, clawing at my will, tearing at my thoughts. It moves me against my will, to this cavern. Here it will end. I do not wish this, do not want my body to become a weapon for the Ing within me. It hates. It demands obedience. I will fight to the end. I shall self-terminate before I will be a pawn of a filthy Ing.

Satanis: What? The half of Superman, the one I have possessed— cries out? It's fighting me, resisting me! I won't allow it!

Superman: You... cannot stop me! There past... days... I... have been claiming more control...
Don't mind me, squirt. I'm just concentrating every ounce of willpower in my body toward trying to stab myself in the brain. It'll be quick. Easy. One knife stroke, jammed backward through my eye with all my force, driving into the parasite underneath...

To everyone’s surprise, it’s Cassie who gets the reputation for being the rebellious host. Niss 240 aims a dracon beam at a suspicious-looking bird; Cassie jerks it to the side. Niss starts in on a recruitment pitch; Cassie causes her to collapse on the floor. There’s talk of simply killing Cassie, as reluctant as everyone is to give up on a morph-capable host (and an estreen at that), but the incidents stop happening after Cassie gets transferred to Aftran 942’s control.
