InuYasha didn't wait as Kaede came of her 'Healing Room' as she called it and pushed pass her not even wanting to know what happened to Kagome....he was set on just getting to the girl who fainted unceremoniously in his arms.

The reed door swayed behind him in a rustle as he gazed at the girl lying on the green colored futon. She had a plain dark indigo blue blanket tucked neatly around her, her arms lying at her sides and an off-white damp cool cloth laid on her forehead to cool her brow. She moaned softly and InuYasha quickly sat down next to her and re-dipped the cool cloth into a bucket of cold water and replaced it on her forehead, moving it across her forehead in a caressing motion.

"Inu.....Yasha?" she said in an air of a whisper as she clenched her eye lids tighter and then suddenly sat up quickly causing the cool cloth to fling across the room. her eyes were wide and she was breathing quickly and suddenly placed a hand over her heart and trembled.

InuYasha quickly grabbed her shoulders and eased her backwards so that she was lying down. "You shouldn't be trying to get up ya know" he said to her softly pulling the blanket up to her chin again.

"InuYasha......I don't feel right....I feel as if my blood is on fire......" she said while wincing again and clamping her eyes shut for the pain was immense to her.

InuYasha Narrowed his eyes and let his face become emotion-less, he knew that feeling and hated the feeling of it.....it felt as if you were suddenly lit on fire and having you soul ripped from your body and the only time he felt that was when Tetsusaiga was heavy and turned into a demon.

He suddenly took Tetsusaiga from its sheath and wrapped Kagome's hand around the hilt of the blade. He knew by the look of her face and by the sound of her breathing that she was calming down. She suddenly fell into a restless sleep, her hand clutching Tetsusaiga as if it were her life line, InuYasha frowned and used his sleeve to wipe the new beads of sweat forming on her face for the cool cloth was out of his reach and he was going to remain in that spot for a very long time.

InuYasha felt his eyes get glassy and let his shoulders slump as he watched Kagome's sleeping form. It tore his heart to watch her go through suffering and was confused on how she was going through what he was going through. After all she wasn't a half-demon so how could she be having blood wars? And for more of an important part.....why was she getting them now?

He sighed bitterly and gently brushed Kagome's bangs to the sides of her face; he felt so helpless just sitting there and watching her and not able to help her and ease her pain.....

'Was this what Kagome was feeling when I turned into a demon?'

Probably so he concluded; he inched closer to the side of the futon and placed a calm hand on top of her clenching hand that rested on the hilt of Tetsusaiga. He felt her hand start to ease and he looked at her face and saw her start to rest without pain.

*~*~*

Sango flipped fish over while she, Miroku, Kaede, Shippo, and Kirara waited for InuYasha to come out so that they can discuss with him. Kaede was staring at the flicker flames of the little fire and sighed bitterly now and then. She stood up and turned to the group.

"I'll talk to the unsettled dog...." she said calmly though worry sketched her features.

Sango nodded and everyone remained still, there eyes telling of thought.

Kaede pushed back the reeds and saw InuYasha leaning against the wall closest to Kagome. She noticed that the Tetsusaiga was in Kagome's clutches and InuYasha with the empty scabbard.

"InuYasha......" Kaede said softly while gazing at the sad and obviously stressed half dog demon.

"What do ya want old woman" InuYasha said gruffly still keeping his gaze on Kagome.

"I know what ails Kagome" she said firmly making InuYasha snap his gaze to the elder.

Kaede sighed and sat down next to Kagome's futon and closed her eyelid and letting out a long breath. "InuYasha....you gazed upon the scroll of Kagome's family right?"

"Yea" InuYasha replied shifting around a little bit.

"Well, Lady Kagome is appeared but twice on that troublesome scroll...once in this era...once in her own.....the scroll tells all about your future together.....along with you bloodlines"

"Make a point hag!" InuYasha said getting annoyed with Kaede.

Kaede glared at InuYasha with her solitary eye before continuing "bloodlines is what is ailing her ungrateful dog, since she's is but her own ancestor with you accompanying her, you dog demon blood made its way happily into your offspring and into your offspring's offspring and so forth....making its way to Kagome" Kaede said now turning her grandmotherly gaze to the fitful girl.

"It shouldn't be affecting her if there was enough human blood corrupting the demon's right?"

"not only humans have you future kin have married, InuYasha, but of demons as well and surprisingly only dog demons from this elders eyes seen have touch thy kin.....weird how the same species attracts...."

"Feh!" InuYasha said gruffly narrowing his eyes at Kaede trying to make sense of her little riddle.

"Now boy understand....the half dog demon blood of Kagome's which was transpired from her own marriage has now you blood in her veins.....the half dog demon side which was having a constant war since she was born and now the human of her is starting to die.....you were so lucky to have an even split of blood boy but this girl....is uneven. When the human blood dies the half demon blood will sooner or later take over but there is not enough of it to stand her......it will be like her dieing of loss of blood which she technically is"

InuYasha gazed at her with slightly widened eyes and his hands shaking from within the fold of his haori. "Tell me old woman......will she die?"

"If her blood wont even...there is a chance is shall...." Kaede said softly as she reached out a withered hand and smoothed the creases on the blanket.

"How will it even" InuYasha asked hoping for a good answer.

"By somehow the blood of the half demon within her...is doubled" she said clearly "but the only person with the right blood is you...because adding human blood is just causing more pain, though I know of no procedure of putting another's blood into another without both of the persons risk and Kagome is of no state to do that"

InuYasha stared at his lap and found if very interesting at that moment. He remembered what he was told when he was younger about demon blood and the only way to share it was to....

"I know" InuYasha spoke aloud to Kaede.

"Then tell this woman" Kaede replied hopefully.

"When I was a whelp.....I was told about the recognition of demon bloods and its importance....I remember the only way you can share blood successfully is by......" InuYasha blushed deeply "marking...........but the problem is that that the female that you are marking is to forever be yours and that it is final"

"What is the problem InuYasha? Or is it that you're not sure of it?"

"Trust me I'm sure" InuYasha snorted "but I'm not sure if Kagome will...."

"Want to be yours forever?" Kaede said smiling knowingly at the boy.

InuYasha didn't reply though he looked like that his faced was painted red.

"be not afraid of that InuYasha.....you have not the eyes of another and when I see the couple of ye and Kagome.....I see love, happiness, and more importantly trust......I see that you both are willing to be together despite differences and appropriate times"

"Humph" InuYasha replied softly and remained staring at his lap.

"I see that Kagome will not mind and the fact of the scroll is enough to prove it true" Kaede said firmly "but I think it best for you to talk to her before you do it"

Kaede stood and gazed at InuYasha with a gentle eye before going out of the room to leave the young priestess to her dreams and InuYasha to his thoughts.

*~*~*

Sango stepped outside the smoky hut to stretch her legs after sitting back on her heels all day. 'Poor InuYasha..........'

"Stretched enough yet?" asked a teasing voice from behind Sango.

"I guess...." Sango said softly turning to the monk "com to fetch me have you?"

Miroku shrugged and stepped up next to his fiancée looking down at her fondly. He wrapped his arm around her and made sure that no 'demons' came to posses his hand and make it go any lower. Sango leaned into the embrace and sighed as she rested her head on his purple and dark blue monk robe and sighed; she noticed the absence of the 'jingle-jingle' telling her that he didn't bring his staff with him.

"What do you want to do now?" Miroku asked softly as they started walking down the bare dirt streets, passing hut with puffy gray smoke curling from the tops of the huts.

"What do you mean?" Sango asked breathing slowly and deeply, savoring one of there pervert-free moments together.

"Do you wish to settle down or bury you father or....." Miroku did a rare blush that Sango quickly joined in.

"I would like to go to my village....and bury my father and companions properly" Sango said firmly "then we could settle down...." Sango smiled as she felt Miroku tighten his grip and pull her closer to him.

"I would like that...." Miroku replied to her and kissing the top of Sango's head.
