Hey. Please ignore the fact that I put 'pneumonia' in the last chapter. I just typed some random disease…I might as well have typed 'pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis'. That's sad that I know that word. Umm…please ignore that part too!

So…thanx to the reviewers! I'm trying to make this the best I can. I posted my second story, but it just isn't as good. (At least not to me.) If anyone has ideas on how to fix it… or anything, I'll graciously accept help! Lol. Well…disclaimer:

I don't own IY! OR any anime show for that matter…

Well…on to the story!

Miroku and Sango took InuYasha's unconscious form to Kaede's hut to wait. They weren't necessarily eager for him to wake, knowing the massive aches that would come to their heads once he did. They began to make dinner for them all, including InuYasha for when he awoke.

As if on cue, InuYasha began to stir from his slumbers. As they had anticipated, he began to yell impolite words and phrases, questioning things such as 'why the he was there', 'how long had he been in asleep', and 'where was that , Kagome'. Their heads began to pound more and more until Miroku whacked him on the head with his staff, effectively shutting him up for the time being. They answered his questions (ignoring what he had called Kagome) and he, once again, began to yell. He was not happy that they had let her go off after Koga alone. InuYasha was about to go chase after her himself, until he stopped and visibly smelt the air. Without so much as a word to the houshi and the taijya, he took off into the forest. Miroku and Sango calmly glanced at each other before heading to bed (SEPARATE beds). One unspoken word had passed between them in that glance.

Kikyo.

Koga finally managed to reach his pack's cave with Kagome in his arms. He walked through the cave, ignoring the peculiar looks he was receiving from his fellow pack members. He reached the spot he wanted, a medium-sized patch of furs laying on the ground resembling a bed, and quickly laid Kagome on it. His two closest friends, Ginta and Hakkaku, hurriedly came up behind him and began to question him, until they recognized Kagome and the fact that she looked ill and was bleeding out of several places. They shut their mouths and awaited the instructions they knew were coming.

"Ginta, go fetch some warm water and a cloth. Hakkaku, try to find something to wrap her wounds in. Herbs too. Go, now!"

"Yes, sir!"

Koga got Kagome as warm as possible, and a few seconds later Ginta and Hakkaku returned with the requested items. Koga sent them away, and then proceeded to wash her wounds with the water and cloth.

When her wounds were clean and wrapped, Koga built a fire for her, but she still was losing body temperature. He knew what he had to do, but Kagome wasn't going to like it. He took off her wet clothes, careful not to look, and wrapped her in a couple of furs. When he was certain that she was becoming warmer, he wrapped her in his arms and leaned against the cave wall, slowly drifting off into sleep.

When Kagome woke up, she felt extremely warm, though she didn't know why. She snuggled closer to the source of her warmth before she had to wake up. That is, until she realized that her 'warmth' was breathing. She slowly opened her eyes and titled her head to see…KOGA?!?!?! What was he doing there, next to her? Wasn't he supposed to be angry with her? What happened last night?

All these thoughts and more swam through her head and more, until she felt him wake up. Stormy blue eyes met chocolate brown ones as they stared at each other. It was a great moment, that is, until Kagome realized that she was in nothing but her bra and underwear. She hurried to cover any part of her body that was visible to Koga, except for her head. Koga watched, rather amused, as she scrambled about. What a sight to see.

InuYasha didn't return from 'wherever he went' until sunrise. He proceeded to act as if nothing happened, but Miroku and Sango knew better. They half expected him to yell at them to hurry up so that they could go find Kagome, but…no such order came. What exactly happened last night?

Hey, there you go! Chapter four, as I said. If any of you are wondering, I'm probably not going to have Shippo in this story. I just can't think of where to put him! Oh well…

Next week I'll probably update my other story. I'm doing a chapter a week, and rotating stories, if that makes any sense. From June 28th to July 2nd I won't be around to write anything, and then there's the 4th of July. So don't expect much then! Sry!

Read & Review! Thanx!
