Kagome sipped her tea languidly, and only a little smugly. She had ordered herself some tea and miso soup that she had charged on Baki's account. The least he could do was buy her breakfast after ditching her so suddenly after her arrival to Konoha. They were the only reason she was here after all.
Kagome stopped her tea midway to her lips when she felt a familiar presence skyrocket throughout the Village. Her heartbeat began to thump rapidly, and her breathing became short as she doubled over the table, her teacup clattering on the wooden floor and shattering. She could already imagine Inuyasha cursing her, she had gone weak if such a little amount of contaminated energy made her sick to her stomach.
Gulping desperately to moisten her dry mouth, Kagome fought to clear her mind. A hand came up to clutch her chest, her heartbeat was beginning to hurt and she was feeling lightheaded from the excess of blood flowing through her body.
"Get a grip Kagome! Take charge of the situation!" Kagome ordered herself gruffly. What did she know? Familiar energy was nearby, she had her bow and arrows, but she didn't have any of her seals.
