Kagome tensed slightly and Motarasushi reacted to her tense form by speeding up slightly, 'Why is she so tense? What is she thinking about?' Motarasushi shook his head slightly in order to rid himself of his troublesome thoughts, 'Why is he so curious? Why did he care? The girl on his back seemed powerful but that one demonstration of her powers may have been a fluke. Maybe I should take her somewhere where I know she will be forced to fight and show her skills to me. It is very possible that she may be worthy of me.'

Kikyou could feel the sense of dread grow stronger every moment she stood there waiting for her soul stealer's to bring her souls to feed upon. What was after her? Should she tell Inuyasha? Perhaps that would be best. Kikyou mused to herself as the first soul stealer appeared from the forest around her.

Sesshoumaru had continued to follow Kagome, perhaps he should tell her her name? Maybe she would be grateful? Then his eyes narrowed, no, he decided I will not tell her. Sesshoumaru had kept her for so long on purpose, he wanted her to be his and had told her thus near to the beginning. She had forgotten that as well as time passed.

I do believe it is time to go visit the miko. After all she seems to be headed to where Inuyasha and Kikyou are. Prehaps it is time to go pay a visit.
