The air rippled in front of Sesshoumaru and Kagome, and Sesshoumaru stood instinctively between the apparition and the Kagome.
At once, the shape that appeared as a shadow popped into reality, and Kanna stood before them, expression empty, her mirror in her hands as always."Naraku wants you alone." she said in a faint, monotone whisper, and pointed at the demon.
Kagome pushed her way from behind Sesshoumaru, to face the creepy little girl."He's not going to leave me alone here!" Then she felt a hand on her shoulder, sharp nails sinking through her shirt, into her flesh. She took that as the dog demon's way of telling her to shut up."Please" she muttered, turning back to Sesshoumaru.
"You will stay here. I will return when my business is done. Watch Rin."He said coldly, and left toward a direction that Kagome guessed he knew Naraku's castle was.
Kanna looked after him emptily, then looked into Kagome's eyes. It creeped the girl out, that empty, soulless look. It was bad enough to be left here, alone and helpless, while Sesshoumaru went off to see Naraku! How dare he just leave her? Especially after what just happened!
She pushed that out of her head, there was no time to think about that now. Now all she could think about was that scary look the little white demon was giving her. "Try to take my soul, and I will break that mirror into pieces!" she declared.
"Not here for that." The little demon stated plainly.
"Then what are you here for?"Kagome demanded.
In answer, Kanna disappeared. Kagome looked around, and decided that she was gone for good. "No purpose here, I guess." she muttered, and went to look for Rin. She found her with the dragon demon, looking for a place to camp. She didn't know Sesshoumaru was gone, but she didn't worry about it much when Kagome told her either.
"You don't have to worry about Sesshoumaru sama, he can beat anyone!" The little girl said confidently.
Kagome watched the love shining on the small girl's face. All that admiration. She felt guily, when she thought back, at how safe she felt, leaning against him. He was cold, but it felt like she could really get used to having him so close. Now that she wasn't as freaked out by his presence, she blushed when she thought of him. Then slammed her head into a nearby tree, out of guilt. "What is WRONG with me?!?" she yelled.
Rin looked at her with wide eyes. "What's wrong?"
"That's just what I want to know." Kagome whispered, and slid into a sitting positon against the tree.
"You like Sesshoumaru sama, don't you?" The Rin asked innocently.
"WHAT?" kagome snapped up. "NO! He's the enemy...he kidnapped me...he's EVIL!"
she said quickly, She really didn't sound convincing. But she was not about to admit anything to herself, let alone the adorable little girl.
Rin just looked at her with a tilted head for a while, then grinned.
"Hey! Don't think..."Kagome began to argue, but got cut off.
"There you are!" Came the vioce from the trees. Inu Yasha's voice, with his red figure following.
"Inu..."Kagome muttered. This was more than she needed at the moment.
The whole group appeared. Reunited once again! No! She wanted to scream, then wondered why she didn't feel a little happier.
"Hi, Kagome." said Inu Yasha, rather proud of himself that he found her, and not at all worried, for his brother's scent was not in the air.
"Inu Yasha...You found me..."Kagome muttered.
"Well, you don't have to sound so enthusiastic!" Inu Yasha snapped.
"Come on, let's get out of here before Sesshoumaru comes back." Said Sango.
"Listen guys...I'll..."no, Kagome couldn't tell them she wanted to stay here. It just wasn't possible to. "We can't leave Rin here all by herself!" She protested.
Inu Yasha threw an impassive look toward the interested little girl. "I'll be fine. Hurry back, Kagome san!" She said.
"You heard the girl! Now come on!" Inu Yasha picked her up, and they hopped away, followed by the rest of the group on Kilala.

At night, Kagome was pretty much forced to tell all that happened while she was captive, by Sango and Miroku. Inu Yasha sat in a tree, and pretended he was asleep. Of course she never told about the strange kiss, and that last moment they shared with Sesshoumaru.
"Will you excuse me, I'm kind of sleepy." Kagome said, and moved away from the group. She sat on a rock in the darkness, while the others fell asleep quickly, and felt some kind of depression fall down on her.
She was broken from her peaceful, strange sadness, by Inu Yasha.
"I'm glad you're back. I was realy worried, you know." he whispered, with feeling.
Great. Just Great. Anytime before, Kagome would have been so glad to hear him say that with such honesty. But why didn't she feel it anymore? Didn't she love him? She used to...
Her eyes widened as Inu Yasha's arms went around her, pulling her into a comfortable hug.
