Chapter 3
What's with Kagome?
"Feh, she just wanted to go on a walk, you heard her you old hag" He looked at Keade, then the way that Kagome left, and it wasn't toward the well, but it was toward Goshinboku
"Inuyasha, did ye feel an evil aura earlier?" trying to get his attention towards her
Inuyasha looked toward Kaede "Only for a minute, before Kagome said that 'sit' command" he growled because his right still had a little water in it.
"I felt it also, but it was a bit far to where I could barely sense exactly who or what it was" Miroku had interrupted on purpose
"So did I, but I also feel something different about Kagome, for it feels that she is growing yet too weak for it to be sickness" Kaede said to both Inuyasha and Miroku
"Her body was really cold, almost like ice, then I went on her and warmed her when I was in her lap Kaede, is that bad?" Shippo seemed puzzled
"Feh, your always in her lap, you're like a pet!" Inuyasha yelled in his little face
"Well at least I try to keep her warm because I care; you won't even cover her with your haori when we're around because of your stupid pride! Plus last time I heard, cats and dogs were pets, not foxes!"
"FEH!" WHACK Shippo got smacked on the head hard "YOU NEVER SHUT UP!"
"Not when I'm right!" Shippo snapped; trying to be brave
WHACK "SHUT UP YOU RUNT!"
Shippo stopped so he could stop getting hit in the head but still growled but then looked at Kaede waiting for to answer his question.
"Ye should not fear..." she turned to look at Kirara "Kirara, will ye go in the forest to watch Kagome?"
"Meow" Kirara had then transformed into the huge cat demon and followed slowly yet quietly in the direction Kagome went.
"Kaede, when Kagome and I were coming back, I thought I had seen a shadow in the tree, Inuyasha were you watching us when we were coming back?"
"No, after I left you and her at the springs I walked here to the hut, talked to Miroku, and stayed in the tree till Kagome was done cooking" he took a moment "Besides, I didn't want to get attacked by Kagome with her brush or incantation words that make me acquainted with the damn earth!"
"But... If that wasn't you... who was it?"
"Wait!" Inuyasha said as a scent hit his nose. "I... I think I smell... I think that I smell blood, and it's not just anyone's blood, it smells like it's Kagome's blood" he stood up getting more concerned by the moment "She's losing a little but the smell is getting stronger,." 'Is... Is she coming back?'
They had all stood up, Shippo jumped onto Inuyasha's shoulder; Inuyasha wasn't paying any attention because he was to concerned about what was coming their way. Out of the shadowy forest of the night Kirara had Kagome in her mouth by her shirt. "Kagome!" they all shouted. She looked unconscious went Kirara set her down slowly. "Inuyasha! There's something evil in her neck! I see it! She's bleeding there!" Kaede yelled out to him "What? I don't see anything! I smell it but I don't see it!"
In the tree that Inuyasha was in early, Naraku had suddenly appeared there, just laughing at them like he was a maniac "Ha ha ha, I had my insects poison her without anyone to know it." "Naraku! You bastard!" "Don't worry Inuyasha, I planned this to happen, with in 5 days after the sunset then, she will die, nothing can save her, the poison has affected her whole body by now." Naraku said it calmly so that Inuyasha's anger would rise. "Naraku! You shall die now!!!" he swung his sword at Naraku but he left, but the words of Naraku still echoed in his ears.
"Kagome..." he turned towards. Everyone ran to her. "Kagome wake up!" Shippo said lying on her chest. "We must get her inside the hut quickly" Miroku said. Inuyasha had picked her up in bridal style into Kaede's hut. Sango was getting scared "Kaede, is there anything we can do?" but looking into her eyes she was thinking she knew the answer was no. "Damnit Kagome!" Inuyasha said with his bands hiding his face. "You should've said something to us you stupid girl!" he sounded angry but only because he was scared.
Kagome's eyes barely started to open and saw a red blur knowing it was Inuyasha "Sorry, I didn't know" she laughed a little but it started to hurt "I felt a shard but the I ended up wanting to see Goshinboku and my neck started to be a pain. Sorry that I didn't get the shard Inuyasha."
"Kagome" he put her down on the left side of the hut. "Your such a stupid girl! Why weren't you telling us something was wrong!" he grabbed her arm and it was like Shippo said 'She's ice cold'
She looked away from him to the wall and started to frown. " I didn't know something was wrong until you told me to go to sleep, and if i was sick or something, I would slow everyone down and we'd have to stop hunting for shards."
"YOUR DAMN LIFE IS MORE IMPORTANT THEN THOSE SHARDS!" He shouted then calmed himself quickly "Now go to sleep, this time listen"
Kagome turned back to him and nodded, she closed her eyes and quickly fell asleep, Inuyasha was surprised how fast she went to sleep 'Wow, she was really tired'
Kaede coughed in a way to get everyone's attention "Ye must find Myouga, surely he might be able to help Kagome" The others were shocked because they forgotten all about him "That's right! He said he would be in the next village not far from here" Miroku explained. "Let's go get him!" Sango said while not waiting any longer. "Inuyasha are you coming?" They said in curiosity, "No, I'll stay here with Kagome, I won't leave her side; she never left me no matter what happened!" He exclaimed to them.
"Ye should go and help, Shippo and myself can look after Kagome for ye Inuyasha, three of ye is better than two. "Kaede with sturdy eyes looking at Inuyasha. "But, I can't... I can't leave her" he trembled as his hand was holding Kagome's; she started to wake up feeling Inuyasha trembling. "Go... Inuyasha... I'll be fine..." saying with all her strength that Kagome had. "Ka-Kagome..." he nodded to her but was angry at himself because he woke her woke up after he noticed on how tired she was. "Okay, I'll help look for Myouga, Shippo protect her with your life" looking as serious as he could be while letting Kagome's hand go to stand up "You got it Inuyasha!" After that Inuyasha took one more glance towards Kagome and headed out to the next village.
