Miroku layed Hoshi down on a mat in the hut. Her clothes where a little torn from the battle and the area around where she had been stung was was and ugly geenish purple.

Keade began prepareing to find a cure imeditaly."Miroku and Inuyasha yea must leave."she said pushing them out the door"Sango and kagome would yea please assist me?"

Outside shippo was playing with kirara and teka."miroku are you okay?" he asked as her saw them come from the hut.

Miroku managed to fake a smile "yea shippo i'm fine. Just.. just keep playing with teka and kirara."he said even though once more he felt hurt and sad but even more angry all within himself.

Inuyasha could some how sence how Miroku felt and in his own way he tried to cheer up the perverted monk."Miroku don't worry bout hher. she is a strong kid member she kicked my butt a bunch of times.."

Miroku didn't answer him.He was just stearing off into space.Teka then jumped up onto his shoulder and purred a little.

Miroku didn't respond to her. he was too lost in his thoughts. so teka jumped down and ran into the hut to keep her master companie.

Inside the hut keade was haveing sango crush some herbs while kagometried to keep hoshi cool with a cloth. keade herself was examinig the wond and hoshi.

she touched hoshi's ears to see if they would move but they didn't.next she examined the wond. It was small but the skin around it was now black.

aura sat silently on the floor of the training hall insid eof sesshomaru's home. something felt wrong. really wrong.

"are you ready?"sesshomaru asked as she entered the room.

she imeditaly looked up. her eyes turning from there darkest purplr to blue quickly."yea sure ummm what?"

"are you ready?" he asked again lookking at her strangly.

"oh yea."she said and got up."just don't go easy on me cuz i will woop you." she let out a fake giggle

the practice fight began.Sesshomaru was haveing better luck than last time, he was getting closer before she bothered to move. but then he suddenly stop. "what is wrong with you?" he asked relizing that she wasn't acting like herself.

Aura looked at him"something feels so very terribly wrong."

Miroku hadn't noticed that he had fallen asleep untill he awoke the next morning.he saw shippo curled up near him, and inuyasha was in tree still sleeping.

he got up and tip toed into the hut to see if hoshi was ok.

inside the hut he saw kagome aslepp with cloth still in hand. sango was curled up by a burned up fire.Keade was most likely in the back room for she was out of sight.

Miroku then laied his eyes upon Hoshi. She was the very same as he had left her , only now she seemed soo much weaker. teka had cureled up within hoshi's her and was purring softly. Miroku walked over and sat beside her. She seemed at peace

while she slept and so helpless. he could she a small amount of blood apear from the wrappings, he touched her hands wich were now almost as cold as ice.

he took of the purple part of his rob and covered hoshi with it.

'she seems so helpless, and yet she is so beautiful at the very same time.' he thought to him self as he gentaly kissed her on the cheek.

he got up and began twords the door. maybe he haddn't noticed it or maybe it was just soo sudden, but what ever the case it had begun to rain. it wasn't hevay nor was it light, it was just a perfect summer storm.
