Do not own Inuyasha.
Awaken
Kagome awoke that evening, still feeling exhausted. She was tucked into her sleeping bag. The rest of the group was eating dinner. She didn't see the village from the angle she was at. Kagome tried to get up, but Sesshomaru stopped her.
"Rest." he said.
"Where?" she asked.
"We are back at the outskirts. The village is behind you. The shard is with me, I will give it to you tomorrow. You must rest some more." he explained.
"Hey asshole, let her eat first, it'll help." Inuyasha stated.
"Are you hungry?" he inquired.
"A little." she replied.
"Very well. Rest afterward." Sesshomaru said.
Kagome nodded, while Miroku brought her some stew and water. Sesshomaru helped her to sit up. After eating, she went right back to sleep. The following morning Kagome awoke again feeling much better.
"How are you feeling?" Miroku asked, noticing her awaken state.
"Better. What happened?" Kagome asked.
"I believe you used too much, too fast, and you exhausted yourself." he answered.
"What about the villagers?" she inquired.
"We explored after the ominous arua dissipated, we believe all the demons combined caused it. We found a mass of bones." he explained.
"The villagers?" she questioned.
"Yes. I gave them the blessings and proper burial rites as well." he answered.
"Thank you." she said.
"You are welcome, but it is not needed. I wish to apologize for not going with you, if I had.." he stated.
"It's alright. I had to force myself to go. I knew it could be dangerous, I felt the effect too, but we needed the shard." Kagome spoke.
Miroku nodded, letting her know he understood.
"Did I hurt anyone else?" she questioned.
"No. The others felt it, but.." Miroku answered, before being interupted.
"We felt it as a caress, a warm embrace. It was pleasant." Sesshomaru stated.
"Rin, is she..?" she inquired.
"Rin is well. You protected her, probably why you blasted them the way you did." he replied.
"One other thing." Miroku stated, getting her attention.
"The injuries Sango and Kohaku procurred from the fight were all healed." Miroku told her.
"I did that!" Kagome said, flabbergasted.
"We believe so." Miroku said.
"Cool!" she exclaimed with a beaming smile.
