"Why you! Let me down!" screeched the girl as she pounded Inuyasha's back. The nerve of her to hit him like that! Such an ungrateful wench. He continued walking, humming a little tune, completely oblivious to the attention they were attracting. They passed through the casino doors, and then he plopped her down on her rump.

"Ouch! Why the hell did you do that?" she growled, balling a fist. Inuyasha shrugged.

"There. You've gained your freedom. Shoo." Suddenly, the girl became really quiet.

"Shoo?"

Inuyasha stared at her. "I bought you. Now I'm letting you go. Go back to whatever hellhole you came from." He began walking over to where his chauffeur had parked the limousine. Suddenly, something heavy latched onto his arm. Inuyasha turned around in surprise.

The girl was kneeling beside him.

Tears streaked her cheeks.
