The next morning, the small group packed up camp. Sesshoumaru turned to leave, eager to return to the fortress.
"Oji-sama, please wait!" Katsurou pleaded. Sesshoumaru stopped and turned to look at him, waiting.
Katsurou took his pause as permission. He ran to Bokuseno's tree, and threw his arms around its wide trunk.

"Thank you, Bokuseno-sama for helping mama and Rin-san. Goodbye! I'll come visit you!"
Sesshoumaru raised an eyebrow in speculation.

Kagome smiled and held out her hand to Katsurou. He ran to her and grabbed her hand, and they continued on.

Sesshoumaru's thoughts were centered on the child. Katsurou was certainly more observant than he had given him credit for.
