Kagome felt numb. She rushed over to Katsurou and swept him up in her arms and clung to him tightly.
"It's okay, Katsurou. He's dead; you're safe now." He shook violently as he clung to his mother.

Rin eyed the thicket of trees that was only a couple acres away.
"Once we get past that tree line, there should be a small shallow river that we can cross. Once we're across, we will be considered within Western Territory."
"I pray that Sesshoumaru knows we're heading his way because we're being followed again." Kagome murmured.
