Thanks to all my readers and reviewers. Now on with the story…

Kagome ran. Past Sango and Miroku standing at the bottom of the stairs. She almost fell coming down the stairs but caught herself and continued until she was out the front door. Even then she didn't stop. She kept running, even after she tripped over countless roots and rocks that seemed to appear. She stopped when she reached the GoShinboku. From there she climbed. Now she was settled on the highest branch. The emotions where overwhelming her.

'I don't get it. He seemed to like me and I was starting to like him. What did I do? I was only looking around. I didn't even touch anything. Now he hates me and I don't know why. ' Kagome was holding back tears when she heard Shippo talking to her.

"Kagome? Why are you crying?" a concerned Shippo asked with wide eyes. Shippo saw Kagome running and followed her. He was currently sitting next to her.

Kagome gave him a sad smile "Inuyasha yelled at me. I don't think he likes me and I don't know why."

Shippo leapt up and gave Kagome a hug. "Inuyasha's just a big meanie. I like you. Your not going are you? I don't want you to go."

Kagome just sat there and hugged him. After a few minutes she spoke softly. "Don't worry I'm not going any where I'm just going to sit up her until I have to go make dinner. I need some time alone so I want you to go back to the castle, but before you go please tell me what's going on."

"What do you mean?" questioned Shippo.

Kagome told him about the painting and resemblance between the men. She also mentioned the jewel. Then she wanted to know why everyone kept saying how much they wanted to be human or normal again. "And don't try to deny it because though you guys don't think I hear you I do."

Shippo told Kagome everything he knew about the curse and why. "I don't know how to break it though. I think the others might but they won't tell me."

"So why do you want to be human again?" Kagome asked.

"Its my tail." Shippo explained. "I keep getting it caught in things and it makes it really easy to lift me up."

"Ok Shippo you can go now." Just as Shippo had started climbing down Kagome called to him again. "Shippo?"

"Yah Kagome?"

"Thanks I needed that hug."

Shippo smiled big and proud. "Anytime. See you soon right?"

"Right."

Meanwhile at the Castle

Miroku and Sango had stood there dumbfounded when Kagome ran past them. Once they broke out of their daze they started yelling at Inuyasha. This is what they were currently doing.

"What on earth did you do! We just saw Kagome running down like her life depended on it! Well! Answer me damn it!" Sango yelled as she paced back and forth, waving her arms frantically.

Miroku joined in but in a calmer manner. "Yes Inuyasha enlighten us. What happened?"

Inuyasha didn't answer. He was currently trying to keep his youkai from coming out. 'What the hell did you yell at my mate for! Let me out! You blew it!'

'No! Your staying right here.'

'I don't think you get it! I'll make it simple for you. You…don't…have…a…choice. Do you want me to go slower?'

'NO! And you're still not coming out.'

'Yes I am. I have to fix your boneheaded mistake!'

'Then why didn't you stop me when I was yelling!'

'Because I was too shocked and angered by you complete lack of brains!'

'You know I'm you right?'

'No. You are nothing like me. I didn't make a girl, my girl, cry.'

'You are wait what? I didn't make her cry.'

'Are you really that self absorbed that you didn't smell her tears? She might not have actually had tears streaming down her face but they were forming.'

'Shit.'

Outside of Inuyasha's Mind

Sango and Miroku where still trying to get Inuyasha to talk. After five minuets of no response they did the only thing they could to get his attention. They hit him.

Inuyasha didn't know what hit him. Actually he did. Miroku's staff hit him upside the head, following that came Sango's boomerang, and then there came a sharp pain on one of his ears. "OOOOWWWWWWWWWWWW! WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT FOR?" Inuyasha screamed.

He could practically hear his inner youkai chuckle. 'Serves you right. Just be glad they got to you before I did.'

"For not answering." Miroku and Sango said at the same time.

Shippo had appeared just as they were hitting Inuyasha. He joined in by biting one of his ears. "For upsetting Kagome and making her cry."

Everyone turned and stared at Shippo, who was currently looking at Inuyasha with a death glare. "I saw her running threw the forest and I followed her. She was really upset. She said you don't like her and she didn't know why. You had better apologize to her!"

Inuyasha stared at him for a moment before he turned to go find her. He hadn't even gotten to the front door when Shippo tackled him from behind. He latched onto his head and yelled. "Don't go looking for her! She wanted to be alone for a while. She said she'd be back to make dinner. You better be nice to her when she gets back or else!"

Inuyasha plopped down and sat in his infamous Inuyasha crotch. He seemed deep in thought, legs and arms crossed. The next three words were the last things anyone ever expected to come out of his mouth. "Please help me."

Everyone looked at him like he was crazy. Sango had enough courage to speak up. "What did you say?"

Inuyasha sighed. "Please help me. I don't know how to apologize and stuff like that."

At this point Miroku actually fainted while Sango and Shippo just stared. His inner youkai clapped. 'About time. I was afraid I was going to have to make you.'

'Yah yah are you going to help to?'

'Of course I can't trust you to do anything.' Inuyasha just remained silent.

Sango walked over and put a hand on his shoulder. When he looked up at her she smiled. "Of course we'll help you. That's what friends are for. Now listen this is what we're going to do…"
