Ch 3- A Friendly Hand
Kagome dragged her body across the grass to the door of a castle. She lightly knocked on the door. When it opened, Kagome fell to the floor and went unconscious.

She came to in a warm futon. Bandages were on her head, body, legs, and a splint on her arm. A hand was grasping Kagome's good hand. She looked to see a sleeping Sesshomaru holding her hand.
Kagome was surprised that the demon would take her in and bandage her up. She sat up and noticed that she was no longer in her swimsuit, but in a blue kimono with phoenixes adorning it.
"You're awake." Sesshomaru's voice startled Kagome. They watched each other, waiting for the other to make the first move.
"You were very injured when you came here. What happened?"
Kagome sighed and tears came to her eyes. Sesshomaru wrapped his arms around Kagome and let her weep on his shoulders as she told everything- the demons JunJun and VesuVesu, InuYasha saving Kikyo and letting her fall, InuYasha rather Kagome getting hurt than Kikyo.
Sesshomaru said nothing, but he didn't need to.
