Chapter 11
InuYasha stopped when he saw Kagome. She was tied to a chair by her arms and feet. Her body was covered with bloody and gruesome cuts and bruises and gashes. Her right ankle was a deep purple and she had a black eye. She was so unconscious and pale, she looked completely ghost white. Red blood slowly trickled down her arms as her wrists continued to empty of blood. And to top it all off, she had messy hair, was looking extremely skinny, and was wearing nothing but a bra and underwear.
"Kagome⦠what the hell did these people do to you?" InuYasha worriedly bent his head to her chest and felt for a heart beat. He felt a very faint one. He cut her arms down and lightly slapped her face, softly calling her name. When nothing happened, he became frantic. "Kagome! Kagome! Kagome wake up!" When nothing happened, InuYasha picked her up from the chair and laid her on the floor.
InuYasha removed his Cloth of the Fire Rat coat from his upper body and placed it on Kagome. He picked her up in the way that a man picks up his new wife in order to carry her over the threshold after their wedding night.
InuYasha walked out of the building in the orange glow of the setting sun, encased with the glow, he looked like a superhero. Stealthily, he jumped up the building and onto the roof and headed for her home.
