AN: Hey back again. Hope you all enjoy.

"KAGOME, GET BACK!!!" Kagome can hear Inuyasha howling at her. She saw that the demon that they where fighting tail was flying at her. Before she could react she came in contact with her ribs and had her flying in to a tree.

Inuyasha screamed for her, "KAGOME!!" He was not happy when he received no answer. His Tetsigai had made a deep cut through the demon. It fell to the ground dead. Inuyasha instantly ran to Kagome.

"Kagome, are you alright!" She had just than started to regain consciousness.

"Ya. I think so." The young girl was now rubbing her pounding head.

"You stupid girl. I told you, you shouldn't have come."

"But you need me." She was a little hurt that Inuyasha still thought she shouldn't have come. "We should probably get the shards for "that" before it starts to pull its self back together."

"Where are they?"

"One in the right shoulder, one in the left thigh, and one in its neck."

Inuyasha quickly recovered the shards and Kagome purified them. He was kind of skeptical about Kagome walking, and insisted on carrying her.

"Inuyasha, I am fine I promise." He wasn't listening. He picked her up and started running towards Kaede's hut.

"Inuyasha, will you put me down. It's just a couple of bumps and bruises."

"No I will not put you down. You are not going to walk all the way back."

Kagome gave up. It was obviously a losing battle. By the time they had reached Kaede's place Kagome was asleep on Inuyasha back. Inuyasha carefully set her down in her sleeping bag and covered her up. When, Miroku and Sango finally caught up and Sango immediately went to bed. Miroku was watching Inuyasha watch Kagome.

"Inuyasha?"

"Nani?"

"Are you feeling alright? You have been acting really weird lately."

"What's it to you Monk!" "I was just worried is all."

"Ya, well it's none of your business, Lecher."

"Gomen, I just think you should get some sleep. You haven't slept in almost a week."

"Whatever." Before Inuyasha could say another word the lecherous Monk was asleep.

*That stupid Monk doesn't know what he's talking about. There's nothing wrong with me. I just don't need any sleep.* But the hanyou was wrong before he knew it he's eyes were slowing drooping and he drifted into a deep and peaceful slumber.
