Finally the chapter has come!

Recap: It's raining and Kagome is in the woods being attacked by a black tiger that has a shard of the shikon-no-tama. Inuyasha just met up with Kikyo but left to find Kagome. The rain id blocking his sense of smell. Kagome's in deep trouble!

Damn where is she! I can smell her, but it's like when I get close to finding her the scent changes directions. Hold on Kagome!

The tiger knocked Kagome off her feet. "I don't mingle with mortals unless there's something in it for me. Now where are the jewel shards! I know you have them!" hissed the tiger demon. "I'll never give them to you," she said. The tiger hissed. He slashed at her again. By now she had huge wounds in both her arms and in her right hand. If only I had my bow and arrows. This is definitely not my day!

"This isn't working. It's like she was never here. I need.. . . . Chi!" Inuyasha raced back to the hut. "Chi where's Kagome?" You really can't expect a five week old puppy to know where theirowner was, but Inuyasha had faith in him. Chi shut his soft brown eyes and took in a deep breath."That's not going to work I can't smell her so why should you?" asked Inuyasha.Chiou howled and ran out in the direction he came from. He found her?

Kagome stumbled, but stood up. "Don't make me kill you, you dirty wench!" shouted the tiger and he struck her down again. Kagome got up and walked away. "Don't turn your back on me!" He went to strike , but surprisingly Kagome moved. "Heh, your to predictable," she smirked. Then she ran. The tiger ran and Kagome changed directions. The demon was now infuriated with the girl. She was almost dead, but she could still mess with him. She tripped. Kagome was his. She screamed

I can hear her! That's Kagome! "That's enough for you runt," said Inuyasha while scooping Chi up in his arms and running in the direction of the scream.

That was it. It was to much. Kagome passed out. The tiger laughed. "Iron reaver Soul stealer!" Three yellow streaks of light appeared in the sky. "What's this!" asked to tiger demon. He dodged. "Your to easy," smirked the tiger. Inuyasha glanced over at Kagome. "Grrr. . . . . You'll pay for what you've done!" Inuyasha pulled out the tetsusaiga. "Wind scar!" The tiger was gone. The jewel feel to the ground, but Inuyasha ignored it and rushed over to Kagome's side.

How could I let this happen. Chiou whined and nudged at Kagome to wake up. "Her wounds are bad and from a stupid third rate demon..." Are humans really this fragile? Inuyasha gently picked her up and headed for the hut. Chi whined. And whined. And whined. "What!" Inuyasha turned around. Chi jumped into his arms and licked at Kagome's scars. "Stop that!" Inuyasha looked down. The wounds were disappearing. "How are you doing that?" Before long all of Kagome's wounds were gone. Inuyasha looked back. The jewel shard was gone. "You little brat you used the jewel shard to help Kagome," Inuyasha smiled. So maybe the brat wasn't all that bad.

Weeeeee done. Sigh. More to come.
