Instincts
Inuyasha couldn't take it anymore. They had been walking through the forest for days now, and each tree they passed seemed to call back to him. He tried to ignore the urge, but the feeling just got stronger and stronger.
He had to do it! What if some random youkai appeared on his territory? It could hurt Kagome! He had to prevent that from happening at all costs, no matter how embarrassing it might be.
'But... but what if she rejects me for it?' thought Inuyasha. He didn't want to lose her.
The constant call grew louder and louder until all he could hear was the rush of water.
He couldn't take it anymore! He had to do it! NOW!
Inuyasha ran to the nearest tree and lifted one leg.
