56What the Heart says 2
Kagome sighed, as Inu Yasha flew through the forest at a break neck speed. The trip back
if on normal conditions would take over four days, but as Inu Yasha leapt through the forest
hardly touching the ground she doubted it would take half the night. "Inu Yasha slow down.
Your gonna hurt yourself."
"You're the one that is hurt." He growled back, continuing his pace if not a little bit
faster.
She glared at him and started wiggling.
"What the hell are you doing your going to hurt your self more; stop moving." He slowed
his pace looking at her disapprovingly.
"Why are you doing this?! You are going to tire yourself out! " She answered back
angrily.
"No I'm not! Stupid I am a demon I don't get tired fast and we haven't gone that far
yet," He yelled at her.
She grimaced as his grip tightened on her ribs. He seemed to notice as his grip loosened to a
gentle hold. "Kagome." He stopped, seemingly trying to place his words. "I-I am trying to get
you back fast, I don't want you to be in pain." He looked down at the girl in his arms, Her
bangs were covering her face. When she didn't answer him He sighed and continued his pace.
About three hours later He was standing near a little river panting, Kagome still in his arms
sleeping. He looked at her his eyes changing from their hard piercing gaze to a warm soft
look. He sat her down near a tree on some soft looking leaves. He checked her bandages seeing
that they were covered in blood he took them off went to the stream. He put the rags beside
him as he drank in water, then putting the former pieces of his shirt into the water washing
out the blood. He walked back to the sleeping girl. She shivered as he washed the wounds
on her arm. He saw this and took his outer Rat skin cloak off and draped it over her avoiding
her arms because he was still cleaning her wound. He grimaced as he worked around the bone
sticking out of the skin, he couldn't do any thing about it till he got back to Keade babbas.
Kagome moaned and opened her eyes looking at Inu Yasha. "em … Are we there yet?"
"no."
"why have we stopped?"
"I had to check on your arm."
She looked up at him her eyes clouded with exhaustion. She heard the sound of running
water and broke her gaze with his fierce eyes, and looked to the stream on her right; Suddenly
noticing how absolutely thirsty she was "Can-can I have a drink?"
He nodded and picked her up It was then that she noticed his outer shirt was wrapped around
her. He brought her to the waters edge wondering how they were going to do this with her arm
hurt he finally resolved in cupping the water and giving it to her. But before he could
move she had her head stuck in the water drinking the cool substance like she hadnt had a
drink in her whole life, she balenced her self with her good arm.
He sat their looking at her as she guzzled the water down, only coming up for breathers
she drank like that for a couple minutes before pushing her self up. He wasted no time in
helping her and then pulled her into his arms. "enough to drink?" he murmured. His voice held
a bit of humor in it.
Kagome didn't seem to notice now that her thirst was quenched she was starting to
slip off into a dreamless sleep. "em hm."
Inu Yasha listened as her heart slowed, and her breathing became even as she fell
asleep. He sighed and pulled her close but not tightening his grip on her sides. She looked
like an angel lying there in his arms so innocent and sweet. She snuggled her head into his
chest slightly whimpering, he looked at her guiltily thinking of her arm. Then sped off into
the night, heading towards Keade's village.

"Do you think Kagome is going to be ok?" Shippou looked up at Sango from his perch in
front of her on the now transformed Kiara.
"She is with Inu Yasha now, he will get her to Keade's fast do not worry Keade will
help her." Sango smiled reassuringly at the fox demon. Then swatted Miroku's hand away and
sent a glare at him. "Miroku I don't think will survive the trip back though."
Shippou sweatdropped and thanked the gods that he was a demon kubb and the glare
Sango was sending the Houshi was not for him, It was very scary.
Miroku smiled a weak smile and scooted back a little so that his wandering hands
wouldn't in general…. Wander and get him in more trouble.

Inu Yasha could see the smoke of Keade's village and sighed in relief 'Hang on Kagome
were here.' He opened the door to Keade's hut finding her asleep.
"Keade Baba wake up! Kagome was injured."
Keade immediately opened her eyes taking in the pale girl in the dog demon's arms.
"Inu Yasha, set her on the padding. And take your kimono off her." She walked up to the
sleeping girl. Kneeling and taking off the bandage to her arm. She shuddered at the site
before her, The bone had been broken and was now sticking a small amount out of the skin,
The skin around it had taken a sickly yellow "Inu Yasha bring me my herbs over in that
cubbord." She pointed and he fetched immediately.
Just when Inu Yasha handed Keade the herbs, Kagome woke up. She blinked twice and smiled
at Keade. "Were here." Keade smiled back at her.
"That you are child, Kagome you are going to have to go back to sleep now." Keade
reached to Kagome's neck and pushed the girl went limp. Keade began working on young girl
before her first giving her a mixture to help keep her immune system up. Keade then began
working on her arm. After a few minutes she managed to clean out the wond fully getting
the dirt and blood all out of her arm but she couldn't get the bone back in place she wasn't
as strong as she used to be. "Inu Yasha come here." She called softly to the demon. He complied
looking sadly at the girl she was healing.
"What Keade baba?"
"Inu Yasha I need you to crack her bone back in place so I can put some healing herbs
on it and a sling."
He nodded. She directed him to where to put his hands he followed her steps and
~CRACK~ pushed the bone back into place grimacing at the noise and Kagome's unconscious
whimper of pain.
Keade resumed treating her arm and wrapped it in a sling sighing at how long that
kind of break would take to heal. Keade then treated the cuts and bruises all over the
mangled girl. A couple hours later she was done and wrapped Kagome in blankets for her
comfort. When she left the room she noticed Inu Yasha moving into it. She smiled to herself
and went back to bed.
When Inu Yasha noticed that Keade was done and after she left he crept silently into
the room. Sitting himself next to Kagome he brushed the bangs out of her eyes and sighed.
The color in her face was coming back thanks to Keade baba's medical herbs, he silently sat
next to her the rest of the night 'if I had been in front of her this wouldn't have happened'
His conscious was arguing again. He sighed again 'Yes' this was his fault and he wouldn't let
it happen again Never again. She whimpered slightly in her sleep and he leaned down to her
petting her head and whispering sweet nothings in her ear and soon she was silent again. He
looked down at the sleeping girl. No nothing would ever happen to his charge again.
