Once Kagome had left, Inuyasha was still angry at Kagome because she was probably with Hojo right now.

Inuyasha headed back to Kiete's. On the way, he saw Shippo and kicked in the side because he was spying on them. Shippo started to cry and went back to Kiete's. Once there, he curled up in a corner and took a nap.

When Inuyasha went inside, Sango said, "It's about time you two got back... hey, where's Kagome?"

"She's gonna' be gone for a whole month," Inuyasha growled. "She's on vacation." Now he started to sound depressed, "What am I... I mean WE supposed to do without her? How are we supposed to find the jewel shards now? And why a whole month? Why not a couple of days? She claims she's not going out with that Hojo guy, but I know she's seeing that bastard."

"Why, Inuyasha, are you JEALOUS?" Miroku said with interest.

"NO!" Inuyasha said very quickly.

Everyone stared at him with disbelieving eyes.

"What? What are you all staring at!"

Oh, nothing..." everyone said at once. But everyone knew that Inuyasha was extremely jealous.

"Fine. If you won't tell me, then maybe you'd like to have a nice chat with my claws!"

Shippo had woken not too long ago and now said, "You're jealous."

Inuyasha went over to the little fox who was cowering over in fear of what Inuyasha might do. TWACK!

"OW! That hurt!" Shippo said as he cried from the pain.

"Fine, I'm leaving after Kagome. If any of you try to stop me, I'll use my claws on you." At that he left running toward the well.

Inuyasha leaped down the well with on thought in his mind: "Kagome, I'm coming to see to it that you don't go anywhere near that damn Hojo."
