Chapter 4. Following the Scent
Meanwhile, while Kagome was in parole after being knocked out by the humungious man, Inuyasha was trying to free himself up the huge pile of earth.
"God damn't!" He yelled over and over again when his atempts would fail."I feel so weak, not even able to pick up some stupid dirt!" He tried to sit up but the rubble weighed him down. "If only i could reach tetsusaiga." He struggled but he managed to pull his hand free, he outstretched it to grab onto it."Come on just a little bit closer..." His hand got closer and closer as he slowly inched his hand nearer toward his precious sword. His claw reached it slightly and he jerked it so that it would move closer."YES!" He finaly had it, he gripped the sword and watched as it re- tranformed into the huge dog fang. He looked over to see if Shippo was moving at all, but still he was knocked out. He swung his big sword at the pile of earth that cover him and cut it in half. The top half of it was flung off him with the momentum of the sword.
"Finaly!" He pulled himself out and he sheathed his sword. "Kagome's scent is still fresh, but it's so weak." He said as he sniffed the air. "I have to hurry up and get Shippo back to Kaede's town or else I'll lose the scent totaly." He ran over to Shippo and picked him up by the tail and ran as fast as his demonic legs would carry him towards the village.
"Sango, Miroku!" He called out as he looked in all the huts. He found Sango talking to some of the village man and he quickly ran over to her.
"Sango, takes Shippo i have to go and get.." He didnt want the others to be worried or to follow him. They'd only slow him down and he didnt want to risk loosing Kagome. "I have to go to the old man and ask some stuff about my sword."
"Inuyasha? Why is Shippo unconsious? Did you guys get into a fight?" She asked as she took Shippo in her arms like a baby, cradling him in her arms as she slowly rocked him back and forth.
"No! Well yes! Shippo got in a fight with a bird okay! I have to go" At that he turned around and left the village behind.
"Be careful Inuyasha!" She called to him as he ran off again.
He returned to the spot where Kagome was taken and he smelled the air. "Nothing!" He got down on his hands and knees and smelled the ground. "There it is." He crawled, following the scent of Kagome."Hang in there Kagome, I'll get you out. I promise." He said every once and a while.
He crawled across the ground like a hound dog on a trail, and really he was. He crawled on all 4, sniffing the air and the ground. Finaly he stood up."I lost it." He said sadly."No..maybe i can see her from up top." He jumped on the branches of the tallest tree that he could find and jumped to the top of it. He looked around, he peared over the trees."Where could she be! I have to find her!"
Just then he caught a wiff of something else, besides Kagomes sent. "No..it cant be." He jumped off the tree and landed softly on the ground. He was speechless, he was starying straight back into the eyes of....
