Inuyasha was walking over a bridge back to camp when suddenly his necklace glowed and grew so heavy so quickly that his face struck the ground before he could even blink. The bags of rice he was holding scattered all over the floor.

"Ha Ha, Inuyasha tripped over himself!" Shippo mocked at him.

"That's not good," Miroku looked at the mess of grains, "how are we supposed to go back empty handed…"

"Well I'm the only one strong enough to carry these in the first place," sneered Inuyasha, "anyways, that was Kagome."

"Kagome?" Miroku asked.

"She has control over you from any location huh," Shippo remarked back, which awarded him a punch to the head.

"Yeah I don't know what the heck that was about," Inuyasha stroked his neck from the tug. Jeez, this time he felt like he nearly broke his neck. What the heck was that for? When I get back I'll show her… Inuyasha was wondering what Kagome and Sango were talking about at the riverbank earlier today. The image of Kagome bare back in the water seemed to peak his interest in other places. Damn her… What is she trying to do? Mess with his feelings? Play with him whenever she felt like it, like a dog. Inuyasha angrily was sweeping the rice into the bag.

After cleaning up, they arrived at camp at sun down and Inuyasha noticed that Kagome was missing. Sango had made a pit of fire and had some rabbit meat roasting. Kirara went up to the three and greeted them with a pass of her tail and sat back around Sango.

"It is going to get cold again tonight." Sango poked the fire sending sparks to the air.

"Where's Kagome?" Shippo asked Sango. Inuyasha tossed the bags of rice to the side and turned his head slightly to her.

"She left for a couple of days, she said she had somethings to take care of before we leave," Sango picked up the roasted rabbit and placed it on a plate, "I wish she left somethings though…"

Inuyasha scratched his head in confusion. She left with everything she brought? That didn't make sense to him.

"A couple of days huh," Inuyasha muttered, Miroku looked at Inuyasha.

"Your revenge can wait, Inuyasha, we have to plan out our trip to see which places we should go first. I already got the map of Rai-Nen."

"Revenge?" Sango asked.

"Yeah, Kagome made Inuyasha drop all of the bags on the floor!"

Sango just laughed at Shippo's enthusiasm and shook her head at him

Inuyasha grunted walking to the edge of camp and turned his back on them. Why the heck did she leave? And without saying anything to me. Who does she think she is? Making us wait for a couple of days. She told me the she won't have to face any more test demons in a couple of months. What is she going back for? Impatiently he rose from the ground and marched towards the well without saying a word to anyone.

"And there he goes," Miroku smirked at Sango, "someone owes me breakfast."

Sango gently shoved his shoulder, "You knew he would leave!"

"What made you so sure he would stay?"

Sango became serious, "I just thought he would."

Miroku shook his head, "I'd like some fried eggs tomorrow." He munched on roasted rabbit happily.

Inuyasha sprinted over to the well with less than a moment's hesitation leaped inside.

Inside kagomes shrine, Inuyasha stayed inside wondering what to say to her when he saw her. They haven't spoken to each other since that night. Inuyasha suddenly got hot and lifted his shirt for some air. What would he even say? Why did she make him 'Sit' earlier? And leave without saying goodbye? He shook his head, he'll figure it out when he sees her. Sliding the door open, the bright sun shone down on him. Inuyasha walked towards the back of the house to where kagome's room was. Kagome was sprawled on her bed awkwardly but was in deep sleep. She'd be a wake soon he thought, he'll let her sleep. Or should he wake her up by throwing her onto the floor? He laughed menacingly at the thought. Before he was about to climb in, he heard her brother running down the hall. He quickly ducked. Five seconds later her door slammed open.

"Sister!" Her little brother yelled, followed by thump.

"Ugh! What are you doing..." Kagome moaned. Inuyasha was slightly pleased.

He heard them go to the kitchen but he stayed put. He didn't want to barge in on them. Not when he hasn't spoken to her first. Would she be mad at him? Inuyasha decided to get some food and come back later.

A full belly and a nap later Inuyasha went back to Kagomes house and peaked through her window again. She was her painting her nails a deep green blue color. She looked a little different. She looked refreshed actually. Her hair was combed and her face was sort of glowing. Even her lips were shining. Inuyasha had mixed feelings about her look. He opened her mouth to make a comment when he heard her mother yell,

"Takadoshi is here!"

Kagome scrambled for her things and made her way out to meet her friend. Takadoshi, huh? He grunted in frustration not being able to talk to her. Inuyasha crept to the front her house without being seen and hid behind a bush. He was starting to get pretty angry looking at the kid. Where was she going with this takadoshi?

"Don't worry, I'll have her back before dawn!" the guy joked.

Over my dead body… Inuyasha leaped over the fence before anyone can see.
