What happened Last time
" Your father told me this will keep you safe in the darkest of times, please when you return be careful. " she said as tears began to well up in her eyes.
Inuyasha and Kagome then made there way towards the well, not knowing what lay for them on the other side…..
On with the Story
As Inuyasha hopped out a few seconds after Kagome he caught the strong scent of blood coming from the Village. Kagome must have noticed it as well because she was no where in site.
As he neared the village he saw a giant bird Youkai attacking the village. Crops were destroyed and as far as he could tell, everyone had taken shelter in the forest. Inuyasha sped towards the demon to see Sango and Kirara getting swatted out of the air only to fall to the ground unconcious. Miroku was unsuccesfully trying to ward off the demon and Kagome was down by Sango's side putting a protective barrier over them.
" Hey Monk!" Inuyasha yelled irritably. " Why haven't you sucked this pathetic excuse of a youkai in yet? "
" Inuyasha, Kagome said this creature possesses a shard! " Miroku yelled as he barley dodged one of the birds attacks.
" Keh, I'll take care of this, you get to a safe distance. " Inuyasha yelled over his shoulder to Miroku as she soared toward the giant bird.
"Kaza no Kizu!" was heard all throughout the deserted village, and with that the bird youkai burst into flames and desinigrated completely.

A day later and still Sango had not awaken. Kagome, being her best friend, never left her side. Miroku seemed anxious about her condition as well and was soon found pounding on Kaede's door asking for treatments.
" Miroku, ye must wait and see what happens… If the exterminator has not awoken by sunset tonight then I will need lady Kagome's help in her recovery. " Kaede explained to him for the tenth time this morning.
Inuyasha raised his ears high when he heard that Kagome would be needed for this. Whatever that old hag was planning, he didn't want Kagome involved.
Sunset arrived quickly that night and Kagome was beckoned at once. As she arrived at the small hut she found that her nose told her a dieing person was inside it. She then realized that only Kaede and Sango were in there and ran as fast as she could towards it.
Her suspicions were correct, The scent was coming off Sango in large amounts.
"Kaede, Sango needs help now! What can we do?" Kagome asked urgently.
"Dear Kagome, Sango was indeed infected by the fire birds toxin. The toxin resides in the birds feathers and it makes whoever was hit by it to die within 3 days. Humans get more of this effect while youkai that are hit with usually recover after about a week. So Kirara is fine, but still if we don't do something for Sango soon, her condition will only get worse.
"What do I have to do?" Kagome said with confidence.

Inuyasha walked towards Miroku with a questioning glare.
"Where Is Kagome?" he asked as he neared the monk.
"Inuyasha, Kagome is not a normal Hanyou. Kaede tells me that her kind have the ability to heal others if they are willing." Miroku replied
"What does that have to do with her location?" Inuyasha asked hestently.
" If she decides to do this, she might get hurt. Kaede has explained all the risks by now and we can only hope there is no side effects."
"What are you…." Inuyasha broke off as sudden realization dawned on him.
"Son of a bitch." He said as he ran as fast as he could towards Kaede's hut, hoping he would make it in time.
