Last time on The Stronger Miko

She was beyond the verge of tears as they came streaming down her face, however she attempts to gain control. "But you know what Inuyasha, there was someone who loved you as are. But you were jus too thickheaded and blind to see it. I dealt with all the shit you put me through and still came back. Did you notice that? Probably not. In case you don't get what I'm saying, the bottom line is that I love you. But you don't love me. How could you? I'm just weak human now aren't I? I can't defend myself. I can't even fight. So why do you put up with me… for the jewel shards. Just because I am the shard detector."

Inuyasha stood there shocked at Kagome's words and language. Carefully paying attention to her he notices that her eyes have a fever glaze in them.

"Kagome, please, don't think like that. Kagome, everything you just said I've realized a while ago. But please let me help you now."

Kagome looks at him, confusion in her fevered face. "No, no you don't. You- you're Naraku. You just want to trick me and hurt me. No I won't let you. Inuyasha will protect me."

Kagome stared at her in shock. 'It must be the fever. Its making her delirious. But how can I snap her out of it.' He thinks to himself. "Kagome, ask me one thing Naraku would never, ever know"

Kagome looks at him. "That is impossible." Inuyasha looks at her questioningly. "Naraku knows all. Nothing is hidden from him."

Inuyasha takes a step forward and Kagome stands up. Inuyasha notices that she is rocking back and forth slightly. 'She looks like she is on the verge of passing out. If she passes out then maybe I could take care of the fever.' Inuyasha takes another step forward and another. Suddenly in the middle of the third step Kagome's power fires up in the disturbing red color. Inuyasha takes his fourth step and Inuyasha finds himself against the furthest wall from her. Inuyasha, once again stunned by the quickness, begins to fight at the miko power bonds that hold his ankles, waist, wrists, and neck. He fights for about a minute and doesn't even loosen the bonds.

"Kagome, please, let me help you. I love you. I don't want to lose you to a delusion or a stupid fever."

"No, you can't love me. You love only Kikyo. There is no place for the two of us." As Kagome says this, her powers lessen as well as Inuyasha's bonds. Although the bonds have lessened, Inuyasha still can't break free of the bonds. He watches Kagome walk a little toward him then stop dead in her tracks near the coffee table. He tries to break free with all his might and power but can not get free of his bonds as he watches Kagome pitch forward, knocking her head on the coffee table. She lies on the ground; unconscious and a freely bleeding head injury.

Is Kagome going to be all right?

Does Inuyasha get free of his bonds to help his injured love?

What is the meaning of Kagome's Behavior; is it the Fever or something else?
