Kagome returned the morning of the third day as she promised Koga. Of course, the young wolf was waiting nearby for his mate. He sat out there for two hours with Ginta and Hakkaku awaiting her return. He wanted to be there the second she came back.
"Hey Kagome!" He waved fanatically as he rushed up to her.
Kagome smiled brightly and flew into his arms. "Koga! I've missed you so much."
Koga kissed her to display how much he missed her in turn.
"How was your test thing?"
Kagome sighed. "I did better than I thought I would, but it was pretty exhausting."
Koga smiled and nodded, pretending he knew what she was talking about.
"Koga. I have something to do in the village nearby. Do you mind if I stop there for a few minutes?"
"Sure. After that we can continue searching for Naraku."
Kagome nodded in agreement and ran off towards the village. She was a bit nervous about seeing Inuyasha face to face again but it was more important that she swallowed her pride and go visit her other friends.
Miroku, Shippo, Sango, Kaede and Inuyasha were in Kaede's hut discussing Naraku's whereabouts when Kagome walked in.
Miroku, the last person speaking, stopped mid sentence and everyone froze where they sat, staring like they had seen a ghost.
"Ka-Kagome!" They all exclaimed at once.
"Hi. Just thought I'd drop by." She smiled sweetly, regarding everyone except Inuyasha.
Inuyasha couldn't stop looking at her. She seemed so happy. Happy to be away from him.
Sango noticed something different about Kagome that she absolutely couldn't ignore. She felt the need to ask about it.
"Kagome? Can I speak to you alone?" Sango asked while standing.
"Of course." The two went outside and began to walk as far away from the hut as they could.
"Uh...Kagome. I don't mean to be rude but I noticed you're emanating a bit of a demonic aura. It's not like an ordinary demon and from what I've learned as a slayer, that's a mating aura. Has Koga claimed you?"
Kagome nodded slowly, cheeks bright red. "Well yes."
Sango didn't want to argue with Kagome about her personal life, but she really wasn't sure if she was being rash about this. "Are you happy with your decision?"
"Yes. Koga is very good to me."
"So you won't be traveling with us anymore right?"
"I'm sorry, Sango. I think it's for the best. I'm still going to look for jewel shards and help defeat Naraku so we'll always be on the same side. We may even run into one another from time to time." Kagome replied, trying to cheer Sango up.
"You should at least make up with Inuyasha. He's truly sorry for what he did."
"Maybe in due time I will but I'm not ready yet."
Sango sighed sadly. She thought Inuyasha and Kagome would go the distance.
Unbeknownst to the girls, Inuyasha was nearby eavesdropping…
Inuyasha sat in a tree closeby with perfect view and in earshot of the two girls. His breath caught in his throat when he heard Sango ask Kagome if Koga claimed her. 'please say no please say no please say no!'
"Well…yes."
Inuyasha almost fell out of the tree. His body was shaking violently. "Kagome gave herself to Koga?" Inuyasha said out loud. He was infuriated and hurt. His heart was exploding and the blood rushed to his head. Inuyasha believed Koga took advantage of Kagome because she was upset. "She can't be certain about this! He's fucking confusing her!"
Inuyasha absolutely couldn't stand it. He impulsively ran off to find Koga and give him a piece of his mind—and his sword.
Kagome returned to the hut with Sango to say goodbye to everyone.
Sango looked around, slightly confused. "Where's Inuyasha?"
"I'm not sure. He looked very distressed when you two left. He probably ran off to avoid seeing Kagome again." Miroku informed.
Kagome shrugged carelessly. "I'm sorry about the way things are, you guys, but I have to go back to Koga."
Shippo tried his hardest not to cry. He knew it wasn't Kagome's fault, but he was so hurt by the fact that she couldn't stay.
"Let us all walk with you to Koga."
The group stood and walked with Kagome to the well.
"Hey, what's that noise?" Shippo asked curiously.
