Chapter Eight: Into the Tree

Upon arriving at the camp, Inuyasha dashed happily over to Kagome's now- cold carcass.

"Look, Inuyasha!" he squeaked joyfully. "I told you I would get you new ears! Aren't they adorable?"

He taped them haphazardly to her head.

"Oooh, Inuyasha! Your ears are so cute!"

Tweak. Tweak. Tweak. Plop, plop.

"Oops. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make them fall off. Shall I put them back on for you?"

A short moment of silence.

"Okay!" he said and cheerfully reattached the mangled wolf ears to Kagome's head. "All better!"

Inuyasha sat staring at her for several seconds before asking, "What? You're tired? Oh, of course! It's almost dawn! Don't worry, I'll put you in the tree so you can sleep, okay?"

He lifted her and jumped nimbly into the tree onto a low branch. He set her gently against the trunk and dropped back down.

Thud.
