Kagome P.O.V
When I woke in the, I was in Inuyasha's lap, and he had his arms around my waist, makeing sure that I wouldn't fall out of the tree. Thank you, Inuyasha. What would I do without you? I moved my hands so that I break his hold, and get out of the tree. "Morning, sleepyhead." He said, and jumped out of the tree, with me in his arms. Next thing I knew, he started to sniff the air. He turned me around. "When is the next group of travelers comeing through?" He asked, kinda of sternly. "Not for another week at least, why? What do you smell?" I replied, a look of distress crossing his face. "There is something around here. I want you to keep your bow on you at all times." He stated. I walked inside to get it and screamed. Inuyasha came running. Keade said. "This is the help that we requested." I knew that she was right, or else she would be dead by now. I bowed and murmered "What is your name?" She looked up, and said "Inuko." "Well, Inuko, I hope that you can look after yourself, because I am not going to look after you during a fight." Inuyasha said with a slight sneer on his face. "Don't worry about me. Just watch yourself, and focus on how many more you are going to kill." She spoke fire dancing on her eyes. Before it could erupt into a full-fledged fight, Lady Keade stood up and said "I had forgotten! I need to get some herbs for a plague that is going through another town. Inuko, would you come with me and help me gather them?" Inuyasha was getting mad that he couldn't get a fight. "Yes Keade. I will help you gather the nessecary herbs." Inuko said with as much emotion as a rock could. As soon as they left, I walked over and Inuyasha put his hands around my waist. "Does she really think that she can walk in here and start picking fights?" He said, still getting angrier. I leaned forward and kissed him on the cheek. "Calm down, Inuyasha. Why does she bother you so much?" He was startled by the kiss, and he couldn't talk staight. When he could, he said "I dont know. There is something about her." "I know what you mean. She seems familiar, but I've never seen her before. Have you?" I said, couriesly. "No, never. But she is familiar. But I want to know how she is in a fight. I doubt that we will need it, but you never know." He said strangely. He walked off not long after that.
Inuyasha P.O.V
I had to follow her. She is too familiar, but I have never seen her before. There is Lady Keade. Inuko must be nearby. There is that smell again... "Hello Inuyasha. I'm not so easy to sneak up on. Now what do you want?" How did she do that? I quickly spun around, and there she was, all smiles. "Where did you come from, and who the hell are you?" I asked, getting angry again. "Now would'nt you like to know where I'm from, but I already told you who I am. I know that the real reason you came here was to fight me, but I would rather not at this moment, for we are on a sacred field. Maybe I will when I get back to town. But first, the herbs I came for." She said, turning away. "Fine. When you get back to town, we will talk more. I have no wish to fight you at this moment." I walked back to town, knowing that it would be hours before she found the herbs she was looking for. Though the herbs were basic, and easy for him to find, she would have no prior experience with herbs. About five minutes after I walked into the hut, I heard the flaps open. "Lady Keade, Did you leave Inuko out there on her own to find the herbs?" I said, and turned around, and got angry at myself when it was Inuko standing there. "Inuyasha, I am not as helpless as I look. I know the basic herbs like anyother Hanyou does." "I did not mean to imply anything, idiot. Not every hanyou knows their herbs." I said smugly. "What makes you think that..." "Quiet, I smell Naraku. It seems he wants to see you fight as much as I do.
