-Chapter 2-

"New news, New Wounds, and Similar Problems"

Sunlight poured over the ground of a distant field and fresh air wafted into his nose. Inuyasha rolled over and nearly yelped from the pain. he wished he hadn't tried because now his side hurt like hell.

"You Baka!" said a voice of an old women coming from behind him, "Ye wounds haven't healed completely yet!"

Inuyasha smiled to himself as he recognized the old women's voice.

"So I see you haven't died yet Kaede", Inuyasha smirked as he rolled over again, only cautiously this time as to ensure no more pain would come of it.

"Of course not Inuyasha", she said as Inuyasha caught her gaze standing at the door facing carrying a small bowl of water and a few cloths, "after all I have to look after your sorry ass".

Inuyasha frowned a little at her words eyeing the water bowl in her hands. Surely he wasn't injured that badly, besides it couldn't have been that long since their defeat of Naraku. Inuyasha's eyes widened a little as Kaede set the water bowl down beside him.

"Kaede! What became of Naraku", Inuyasha asked watching the woman set a cloth to soak in the water bowl, "Is he still alive?!"'

Kaede turned and looked at him intensely.

"You listen carefully to my words Inuyasha, for what I am about to tell you may disturb you a little."

Inuyasha was a little disturbed by the very mention of the word in itself but nevertheless he nodded his head in a silent agreement to continue wondering all the while what could possibly disturb him with all of what he had seen over the years.

"Naraku is dead, that is true…", she said a little uneasy, "but…"

Kaede paused as if trying to ponder how she could put what she was about to say into words. Inuyasha was growing impatient all the while and grew angry.

"But what old woman, it's not like that's a bad thing or anything right".

Kaede who seemed to have gotten slightly lost in thought seemed to snap back instantly to what she was saying and turned her head from the water bowl to look out a nearby window.

"But there is another problem on the fore front now", she said looking out the window.

Inuyasha frowned slightly at her words.

"Let me guess…", Inuyasha started, "It involves me."

She turned to look at him smiling with her patched eye.

"Yea we believe so, but ye not worry about it now"

She turned back to the bowl and picked up the wet cloth. Inuyasha looked at it frowning again.

"I'm not going to receive any of your healing either…" he said, "in about a day or so my demon blood will kick in."

She smiled and packed the bowl and water up knowing all to better how fruitless an attempt it was to argue over the matter of Inuyasha's health. She got up and walked out the door as Inuyasha's gaze followed her. How long had he been out? Inuyasha pondered for a minute but then decided it wasn't worth his already drifting mind. He wondered what the other threat was and it seemed that even as the morning light-rays poured through the slats of the nearby windows of the healing room his thoughts of wonder carried his hanyou mind into the realm of sleep.
