Last time: Then Inu Yasha smelled blood. Lots of blood, and it was fresh. It was coming from over their heads. There was a rustle in the treetops and a slight glowing from above...

Chapter 2

A faint growl was growing in Inu Yasha's chest. Miroku woke with a start and looked at Inu Yasha in puzzlement. "What's going on?" his lips motioned. Inu Yasha nodded his head upward signaling for Miroku to look up. The light was getting brighter and illuminated the dark area. Then they heard the farmiliar crackling of a friend's flaming feet.

"Kirara!" They both gasped at the same time. They guaked at the limp body dangling lifelessly on her back. "S..ss...Sango?" Miroku stuttered horrified at seeing the one he was in love with bloody from battle. Shippou was on Kirara's back as well, crying while trying to help keep Sango from falling off.

"Sh...she's not *sniff* moving! Sh...she won't wake up Miroku! You h..have to *sniff* do something!" Shippou weeped as Kirara landed gracefully on the ground. Miroku rushed over to them and gingerly picked up Sango's limp body. She wasn't bleeding as much externally, as it appeared, but more internally. The monk couldn't do much to help, but do as Inu Yasha was and sat next to the fire warming her up. His eyes were swelling with tears and soon were trickling silently down his face.
The two men were holding the two women. Both bleeding.... both dieing. Inu Yasha took this time to tear with Miroku. Miroku tried everything in hi power to heal Sango. He put herbs on her external wounds and tried to make her drink potions to aid the internal ones. But all the medicine would do is trickle out of her mouth. Inu Yasha stroked Kagome's hair out of her face and rubbed her arms and legs so she would warm up. They both held the one's they love.... the one's they trust, in their arms. If they were getting better, they didn't know. If they were getting worse they didn't know either. All they knew is that if they didn't show any signs of life soon, they would probably be dead.

**********

At about dawn the next morning, Inu Yasha woke with a start to find Kagome wasn't in his arms. He quietly got up, as not to wake the others, and set forth to look for Kagome. He found no trace of her scent anywhere, but there was a new scent in the air. A hanyou like him only...a female. 'This is getting strange.' Inu Yasha thought to himself.
He looked around at his surroundings. He wasn't quite thinking straight yesterday so he could be anywhere. There was forest surrounding him from miles by miles and it seemed never to end. He heard the trickling of a stream in the distance and the birds around him were beginning to chirp. The sunrise was making the dewdrops on the leaves glisten as the forest came to life.
Inu Yasha's ears twitched as he heard a rustle in the bushes. Then the faint sound of sniffling. He cautiously approached the bush and parted the branches to see a silver haired being. He paused in shock as the silver hair parted and the person turned around. Farmiliar, big, brown eyes gazed up at him and he knew at once who it was.

"Ka...Kagome?!" Inu Yasha said astonished to see a nearly naked Kagome with silky, silver hair and dog ears like his.(accept for Inu Yasha's kimono and her skirt) "How in the Hell did this happen? Wh...when did you wake up?" He asked still amazed at what was happening. She seemed to be transforming by the second. Her pupils dialated with tears and they turned blue-sliver, matching her hair perfectly.

"Inu Yasha!" she whimpered and fell into his arms. She was crying harder then he had ever seen her cry. From the pain of wounds and the pain of knowing she's not human anymore. He wiped her tears from her cheeks and looked into her watering eyes.

"Don't worry Kagome. We will figure out how to reverse this. I won't let anything else happen to you." he said in a very sincere tone. He was also tearing up... not from sorrow as Kagome was, but from overwhelming joy that he had found her unharmed and alive.

"I don't know...*sniff* what happened *sniff* to me Inu Yasha...I...I woke up like this." she whimpered as she broke into tears again. 'Why do things like this always happen to me?' she thought silently. Inu Yasha embraced her with his arms and held her there for a while, while she eased her weeping.
Inu Yasha's grip on her tightened when he heard something in the bushes. Kagome heard a deep growl in his chest and looked up with wide eyes. She began to growl as well. Inu Yasha was shocked by this. He looked like a Inu-Hanyou like himself and even began to act like she was one her whole life. She suddenly got up and crept to the bushes. Inu Yasha was intrigued and sat to watch her. She sprang from her side of the bushes to the other surprising Shippou, Kirara and Miroku.

"Inu Yasha...where have you..." Miroku began to speek but became speechless when he saw Kagome's face. He just stood there gawking at her new look. Shippou didn't realise it was her until a few seconds later.
Shippou's eyes widened with shock. "That's not Inu Yasha! That's KAGOME!" he said in awe. Kagome stood up straight. "Thank you capiton obvious! Now could we please get off the subject of me! I feel bad enough as it is loking like this...then everyone emphasizes it. It's just like when we discovered when Inu Yasha turns into a human. Only I don't know what the fuck happened to me okay!" She raved and stormed over to Kirara. She was carrying Sango on her back. Kagome peered down at Sango and sighed.

"Shippou, Miraku...how long has she been like this?" she said as Inu Yasha emerged from the bushes. "I found her with Kirara next to a crumbling building." Shippou answered. Kagome felt her forehead. "She's still very cold...do we have any blankets?" she asked like she was commanding them. "No, and we can't all ride on Kirara so we have to find a way out of here on our own." Miroku replied. Sango was weasing hard and coughing up blood. Miroku took off part of his wardrobe and placed it gentally over her shoulders. "At least she's still breathing..." Miroku stated.

Teaser: They sat around the fire and the sparks began to fly. Not from the fire, but from the two hanyous.
