"Oh my Kami.." Inuyasha stared at where Kagome lay. She was laying on the ground doubled over the arrow through her stomach. Her eyes were wide as she stared at him. In a cracking wheezy voice she sung something under her breath.

" 'Cause you. weren't there. when I was scared,"

Inuyasha stared at her. He reached out remove the arrow. She shrieked before his hand even touched her. " Get away from me!" Blood dripped down her arm as she tried to swat at him.

Her arm dropped to her side as she closed her eyes and made little mewling noises.

Inuyasha slowly crept closer to her as she fell deeper into a slumber. He quickly lifted her as to not change her position to harm her farther.

Miroku sat down by the fire, exhausted. Sango moved to the other side glaring and fingering the Hiraikotsu .

" What did he do this time?" Shippo asked.

"He was being his lecherous self while I was exterminating a rat youkai." Sango glowered at the monk.

"Stupid houshii." she muttered

" I resent that remark!"

" I say you resemble remark!" Sango shouted.

" By the way, Shippo," Sango turned to him. He shrunk back. "Where are Kagome and Inuyasha?" Shippo sighed, acting much more mature than he was. " They fought again and Inuyasha made Kagome mad- andthensheranoffintothewoodsandInuyashachasedafterherandleftmeherealone!" He blended his words together as he sniffled.

A red blur passed through the camp, knocking down everyone except Sango, and blew out the fire.

"GOTTAGOBYE!"

"Kaede-baba?" Inuyasha tentatively entered the hut, Kagome in arm.

Kaede stared at Kagome's wound.

"Inuyasha? What happened?"

"I-I-I don't know."

Kaede examined the arrow wound. She shook her head sadly.

"Ye must know. this is beyond my abilities. It is a priestess wound."

"So what should I do?" Inuyasha growled angrily.

"Take her to her own era. Her medicine seems strong." Kaede nodded sagely.

Inuyasha exited quickly.

He passed the Goshinboku Tree and screeched to a halt by the.. Bone Eater's Well.
