Shattered Soul

Chapter 5

Kagome freed Inu's leg from the trap with the help of Shippo, and Mirague's help. Of course, Inu tried to run off right away until Kagome said the word sit, and he was back to being stuck on the ground. Inu clawed, growling at the ground itself. "You really shouldn't struggle you know.", Shippo said to him.

Inu nearly bit Shippo's arm off. "Ah! Kagome, he tried to bite me!", Shippo yelled.

Mirague looked at Shippo, then at Inu, "I think he's just hungry.", he said, quietly.

....

However, after dragging Inu home during several sits, and getting him dressed, Kagome forced him to stay still in a seat, and sat a steaming bowl of food before him. Inu ate it up quiet messily, before demanding to be given another bowl of it. "How many days were you out there by yourself?", Kagome asked.

"Three, and I haven't had a kill for two weeks. More!", Inu demanded.

'Well, at least he's behaving himself if I keep feeding him.', Kagome thought to herself.

Inu ate greedily his third helping before getting out of the chair, and yawning. When Kagome turned around, she found he had fallen asleep curled into a ball on the floor. Kagome giggled at this, and decided it best to leave him alone.

End Chapter: Hmmmm..... Short, I know, next one will be longer, as Kagome, and Sessho try to get Inu to remember, without remembering too much of his pain.
