Night had fallen, but Inuyasha was sure of his footing.

He knew she was dieing. He felt her power drifting away.

"Hang on, Kagome, I need you!"

He had caught the scent earlier when they first arrived at the village, and he could only hope that he could keep the scent.

He found them.

"Sesshomaru."

The demon stood with his back to Inuyasha. Rin rested on Ah-Un, along with Jaken, who slept.

"I..need you to heal Kagome with Tensaiga." Inuyasha's eyes were fierce.

Sesshomaru showed no emotion.

"Ironic, isn't it? I covet Tessiuga, and now you need my sword...to heal a mortal."

Inuyasha growled.

"You truly are weak- Letting yourself be cared for by this girl. She deserved to die in your arms."

Inuyasha breathed heavily through clenched teeth at his half-brother.

"She died because of you."

"Shut. Up."

"You killed her, Inuyasha."

"SHUT UP!"

Miroku coughed. Sango looked at him worriedly. "Are you sure you're allright?"

He grinned. "Quite sure. When Kagome purified the barrier, I suppose she purified the poison I took in."

Shippo sighed. "I hope she's okay."

Sango petted Kilala. "Me too, Shippo. Me too."

Miroku looked down the path Inuyasha had run. "I wish we knew where he took her.."

Inuyasha wanted to attack Sesshomaru, he wanted to kill him. But he wouldn't set Kagome down.

"I have no reason to heal this mortal. She has no importance in my life."

"No one has importance in your life, you bastard."

"Our father was an idiot. You are no different. Falling in love with a human girl." He spoke with disgust.

"You are a disgrace. Father should never have healed you and your mother. He should have let you die. He should have let that idiot woman die."

Inuyasha was furious. No one, no one, ever talked about his mother cruely "You are disgusting."

"Lord Sesshomaru!"

The dog demon turned to see Rin, hands clenched into fists, determined.

"Please heal her, my Lord."

Sesshomaru started to say something, but stopped.

"She has a kind heart, and she has helped me before. She doesn't deserve to die, Lord Sesshomaru."

She looked a little frightened.

"Please."

Sesshomaru scoffed, but to her and Inuyasha's relief, drew Tensaiga.

The sword passed over Kagome's body,and Inuyasha felt the life return to her.

"Come, Rin."

Rin jumped onto Ah-Un's back, where Jaken still slept. She was delighted. "Thank you, Lord Sesshomaru!"

As she followed him, she turned around and smiled quickly at Inuyasha.

Soon they were out of sight.

Kagome grunted weakly and opened her eyes. "Inu..yasha..."

Inuyasha, over come with emotion, fell to his knees and held her close.

I owe that kid...I really owe her..
