Chapter 4: The Truth Behind the Scent
Everyone watched as Inuyasha ran away from the problem. Pretty much like he always did. They all looked to Kagome as she began to run out of the hut, away from everyone she wanted to know the answers. She wanted to believe Inuyasha.
------ NEW POV------
Kikyou walked through the forest, holding her precious child close to her. She looked down at the infant. "Inukai, wake up. We're home." Kikyou smiled down at Inukai as he stretched his arms out and yawned. She walked into an abandoned hut and sat Inukai down onto a futon bed. The child squealed with delight as he began to play with a small ball that "his mother" had given him. Unknown to the small child, the ball was embedded with a Shikon shard.
Just then, a man entered the hut, "Hello Kikyou...I see you have your son again." Kikyou jumped at the voice, she reached over and grabbed Inukai and held him close. The man laughed at her actions, "Silly woman...I haven't come to take him away this time. I want to see if he's seen his father yet."
Kikyou let of Inukai and handed him back the ball. He giggled as he continued to play with the toy. "He hasn't seen him yet." Kikyou looked down to her child, "But he will soon." Kikyou looked back up to the mystery man, "After he does...Then I can have him? Keep him as my own?"
The man nodded. "Thank you, Naraku." Kikyou bowed and the man walked out of the hut, smirking.
Kikyou smiled down at her soon-to-be real son. 'He'll be with me forever...'

"We can always test Inuyasha." Miroku suggested as the others looked at him in confusion.
"What to do you mean, test?" Sango asked, still in confusion. She'd never heard of that.
"Well, when demon's mate with other demons or humans, they leave a mark on their mate and they have a mark of their own. You've encountered this numerous of times Sango." Miroku paused and looked to Sango.
Sango perked up and tried to remember. "Oh yeah, when we tried to slay a family of demon weasels, the father and the mother both had strange markings. And what else was strange...was when we tried to attack them, the father came after us like there was no tomorrow, he would have given his own life to save his family. I remember that..."
"That is quite common in all races...but I presume that demon's show a lot more anger when they try and fend off creatures from their family." Miroku added.
"So...all we have to do is...check Inuyasha for any markings?" Kagome asked as she looked up at Miroku with hope.
Seeing Kagome's tear stained face, he smiled sweetly and nodded. "Yes, but I am not sure where..."
Kagome smiled, 'This can be it! We can find out if he's innocent or not!...I hope he is right. I want to believe him, but all logic points to him.' Kagome stood up, "Then I'll go find Inuyasha." Everyone nodded, then Kagome walked out of the hut towards the forest, knowing exactly where Inuyasha had ran off to.
