After the knights welcomed her back with hugs and smiles, Kagome said "I missed you guys so much and I am really sorry for not coming to visit you guys but my life has been pretty interesting not to mention hectic." And then as an afterthought asked both the knights and Himeno "So how have you guys been? And how is the whole Pretear thing coming along?"

Before the knights could say anything, Himeno linked arms with Kags and interrupted, "It's been okay since Hayate has gotten nicer and I've gotten used to the whole Pretear thing." Then as an afterthought asked, "Wait, why are you here in Awayuki Town anyway? Not that I'm unhappy to see you or anything but isn't Inuyasha going to flip is you stay here for even an hour?"

"Yes but I don't really give a–, started Kags but then glanced at the innocent kids and corrected herself "Yeah but I don't really care because he got that pile of dirt to go back to."

Himeno was about to apologize and rant about the no good mutt when all of a sudden–

An ugly demon appeared before them. "Give me the Shikon No Tama." Goh and Kei got in front of the kids while Hayate and Sasame got in front of the girls pulling out their weapons when Hayate and Sasame yelled for Kagome and Himeno to take the younger knights and run. Himeno clutched at Kagome's arm in fear and shock unable to believe that her 16 year old cousin had to fight demons as frightful as this one for the past year.

"Oh man this is so not my day" muttered Kags under her breath while watching the four older knights try to hurt the demon but instead get frustrated when the demon either dodged or be completely unfazed by their magical and physical attacks. The demon though was amused and a little angry when all of a sudden it flung the knights away with an arm, ironically, behind the kids and the girls. It then lunged at them screaming "I CAN FEEL THE SHIKON, GIVE IT TO ME YOU WEAK HUMAN!!!!"

The knights screamed "NO!" when all of a sudden Kagome started to glow a pale blue and a bow and arrow formed in her hands, she then shot the glowing arrow at the demon who disintegrated on contact with the purifying arrow. She then became pissed off and started muttering "I swear demons are so pathetic and just plain stupid by underestimating me just because I am a human. I mean really they should have felt that I was a priestess, how else would I be able to protect the daym jewel?"

She finished by the time she got to the rest and in a flash of pale blue light, she healed the knights of their wounds and before fainting said, "We'll talk about this later and can someone catch me when I faint?" and true to her she fainted and Sasame being next to her quickly caught her before she hit the ground hard. He then said to the others while staring down at the unconscious Kagome in his arms, "Come on let's go back inside to the mansion."
