Kagome's POV
It was late in the evening and Shippo, Sango, Miroku and I had just finished dinner and Shippo fell asleep. Next thing we know a villager came into our cabin and said, "Priestess, there's a demon on it's way to the village." "Thank you, I'll take care of it ." I said and the villager left. "Well Kagome, do you think this 'demon' could be Inuyasha?" Miroku asked. "Tell you the truth, I'm not sure, but I'm going to find out. Sango could you come with me please. It would be a good idea to have professional demon slayer if it isn't Inuyasha." I said as we walked out, with Kirara, leaving Miroku to deal with Shippo. Sango and I made it to the entrance to the village armed and ready. So demon beware.
Inuyasha's POV
As I got closer, I picked up the scent of Kagome. "Looks like Kagome's back." I said to myself. The village was coming into sight and my vision was getting blurry, but I could make out two female silhouettes. "Inuyasha, is that you?" One of them said. Then I realized that it was Kagome's voice. I walked a little further then with as much strength as I could muster I said, "Kagome...help." Then everything went black.
Kagome's POV
"Kagome...help." I heard as I watched the figure sway then fall on the ground. " Inuyasha!" I yelled from where I was. "Are you sure its him?" Sango asked. "Yes. Only Inuyasha would say my name if he was in danger or pain." I said running to the fallen figure. I turned him over to see he was covered in cuts and scales. "Sango, we're going to need Kirara to move him. I'm pretty sure we'd hurt him more if we move him." I said as I turned Inuyasha on his back. Kirara carried the unconscious hanyou to our cabin. "What happened to him?" Miroku asked. "He passed out in front of us. He's covered in scratches with scales in them." I explained to the monk. "Miroku, could you get the tweezers from my first aid kit?" I asked. "Sure." He said grabbing the needed instrument. I tried to pull out one of the scales, but I ended up hurting and waking Inuyasha. "Hi Kagome." He said. "Inuyasha, what happened?" I asked. "I smelt a demon coming towards the village, so I went to go stop it. It was nothing like the demons we fought when we were collecting the jewel shards. It had the body of a spider, but the scales of a snake." He said. "It was an Invertenid." Sango informed. "It shot its scales at me while I was pushing it back away from the village, so it wouldn't be in the crossfire. I got far enough away to use Tetsaiga, but that was when I realized that the scales were poisonous or at least cause an enormous amount of pain when it makes contact with your skin." He said," I ended up killing it and made my way back here. Everything else is a blur." He tried to look at us ,but I pushed him,lightly, back down on the bed. " Inuyasha, you shouldn't move too much or the poison will get into your blood stream." I told him. " There are herbs that will help get the scales out and stop the poison." Sango said. "Maybe Jiniji has those herbs at his farm. We'll go in the morning." I said. After I did I noticed that Inuyasha passed out again. 'He must have had a hard time with that demon.' I thought. "We should get some rest ,so we can leave out in the morning." Miroku suggested. "Yeah, good idea Miroku. Good night everyone." I said settling into my sleeping bag . Before I fell asleep, I looked over at Inuyasha and thought, 'Rest easy Inuyasha."
