They tossed the unconscious InuYasha into a cell in solitary confinement. His head was still bleeding pretty badly. They took away the hat that concealed his ears. They left him in there to awake. When the hanyou did awake, he was shocked and felt threatened by his confinement. He growled and remembered Koyuki and Kagome. He stood and began slamming into the door.

"KOYUKI!!!" he shouted as he charged the door with his shoulder as hard as he could. After several blows, his shoulder gave, and shattered. He screamed out in pain and grabbed his shoulder. A prison guard heard his screams. He alerted a higher authority of InuYasha's actions. They organized atleast ten guards outside InuYasha's cell, all awaiting their cue. When their cue came, they swarmed the room. They tackled him to the ground, and her snarled and thrashed. He didn't want to kill any humans, so he didn't use his claws. Eventually, he was confined in a straightjacket. When the guards thought they had won and were preparing to dispatch back to their original posts, InuYasha broke free with his claws tearing through the thick leather and canvas. He was once again tackled to the ground. Eventually, they were forced to confine him the old fashioned way. They shackled his ankles and wrists to a wall. The shackles were strong enough to confine the hanyou in his cell. He thrashed and pulled the chains, to no avail. After approximately an hour of ceaseless thrashing and pulling, he gave up. He spirit was being tortured, slashed, and slaughtered. He eventually fell on his knees, hanging his arms in the air. His amber eyes became vacant orbs and his ears drooped. "Kagome... forgive me. I can't protect you or Koyuki like this. I could stay here forever.... without any escape in sight." InuYasha muttered.

About three hours later, Kagome and Mrs. Higurashi were led to InuYasha's cell. He heard the door open, and remained motionless.

"InuYasha...?" Kagome broke the silence. InuYasha's ears perked up and twitched once. Kagome walked into the cell, escourted by a guard. Kagome held Koyuki carefully and kneeled by InuYasha. He barely noticed Kagome, his mind fogged by thoughts which swirled through his mind. Kagome used her free arm and pulled InuYasha to her. The hanyou's eyes widened with surprise at first, but he then calmed. He attempted to return Kagome's embrace, but his arms were shackled to tight. The chains rang as he tried to wrap his arms around her. He felt almost backed into a corner for his life when he was shackled.

"I'm sorry, Kagome." InuYasha finally whispered.

"It's not your fault. I know this era is confusing to you, and you were just protecting Koyuki. They weren't going to harm her in any way. In order to find out what was wrong with her, they had to get a blood sample." Kagome whispered back. Kagome let him go and looked a the guard. It was his sign to release InuYasha. He released InuYasha's ankles first, knowing there were no claws there; then, his wrists. InuYasha rose to his feet, his actions mirrored by Kagome.

"How is Koyuki?" InuYasha asked, gazing down at his daughter.

"It's just a minor illness. She'll be fine with some medicine she got." Kagome responded. InuYasha sighed in relief. He walked next to Kagome out of the prison, tailed by Mrs. Higurashi. They had already paid the bail and the hospital bill, a mere one hundred yen. Freeing InuYasha was what was really expensive. But Kagome didn't care. She needed to be with InuYasha. They returned to the shrine at about 10:45 PM. Kagome and InuYasha both decided they should leave as soon as possible. Souta would flip if he found out Kagome had a child. Kagome bid her mother farewell, and they departed down the well.
