Chapter 4

Sango dipped the cloth into the cool water; she replaced it on the young miko's forehead. A soft moan slipped through Kagome's slightly parted lips. She unconsciously swallowed a lump that was lodged in her throat. Sango pressed the cool cloth on to the priestess' head. A few stray drops of water slipped down the young girl's pained face.

Sango's worried chocolate orbs turned to the other travelers. "Her fever won't break; it just gets worse the longer I try!" Sango stated.

"We aren't far from the village, if we hurry we can be there by night fall." stated a worried Inu-Yasha. Sango nodded.
***********
Kagome glowed with an iridescent blue light, her body worked with purifying energy to eliminate the miasma, the sickness that wreaked havoc on her body.

"Ugh...that was a strong miasma ye have decided to breathe..." Keade wheezed as sweat glistened above her wrinkled brow. Her hands became shaky as she held them above the younger priestess; she poured enormous amounts of energy into her. Keade finally slumped back.

"Have you healed her?" asked a hope filled taijiya.

Keade shook her head. "No child, this miasma which flows through Kagome's veins is feeding off of my holy energy, I am sorry but there is nothing I can do, it is as if I am filling a bottom less bucket, it does no good but waste energy and time."

Sango drooped at this information. Keade gazed over the fitful form of the miko. "I see ye have already changed her garbs, Kagome's would not do, for they are probably tainted with miasma."

Sango nodded. Kagome lay in Sango's kimono. A stray tear slipped down the taijiya's face, followed by another. The second was attempted to be wiped away, before it could it descended rapidly and fell. The tear descended onto the unstable miko, the emotions inside that single tear began to grow and surface. Sango's eyes widened.

"Impossible..." Keade whispered as the tear broke on the small miko's lips.

It shimmered a blue glow, as it slipped past the dry barrier of her lips into her mouth. As the tears slipped through Kagome's lips, she began to sweat more, her breathing grew closer together and more desperate. Sango jumped back as Kagome's eyes flew open.

Kagome pulled herself up weakly. A powerful cough caused her to lean over. Her shoulders shook as she began to cough harder.

Sango's eyes widened when the miko revealed her hands to be covered in blood. Small bits of black were in the blood, it turned ugly red. Inuyasha burst through the hut door, his eyes landed on Kagome.

When she turned his breath caught. She looked, so dead...like Kanna. She knew her fate, but her lips spread in a weak attempt to reassure them.

Her smile unknowingly caused them more worry. Inu-Yasha delicately sniffed the air; his eyes widened and flickered over to Kagome.

"D-don't worry, I-I am f-fine..." was whispered as she fell unconscious. Inu-Yasha ran to catch her; he knew he could catch her.

As soon as he touched her he yanked his hands back. The thump of her fall caused guilt to fill his eyes.

"I-Inu-Yasha...?" Sango whispered.

He hid his hands as she came over. Sango checked on Kagome, and determined she would bruise, but that was it. Inu-Yasha avoided the exterminator's eyes as she tried to look into his. It was rare that Inu-Yasha would fail to save the miko, but when he did he rarely, if ever forgave himself.

"Inu-Yasha, I think you should take her home..." Sango looked at him in a way that he could not deny.

"I-You're right..." he reached to lift Kagome from Sango's arms but a gasp cut him off.

"I-I-Inu-Yasha..." Sango stared at his hands. "Y-Your hands." He quickly pulled his hands away. Her eyes lifted and locked with his.

"Whe-wha-Inu-Yasha?"

He turned away. "It's nothing!" he hissed, though the pain in his voice told other wise.

"I should carry her-" Inu-yasha's head snapped up.

"NO!...I am the only one who can go through the well..." he bit out, before taking Kagome from the momentarily stunned exterminator. He hissed as he touched her.

"I-Inu-Yasha?..."

His head snapped up, Sango gasped at what she saw. Inu-Yasha's eyes began to bleed red. His markings flickered on his cheeks as a strained growl moved past his lips.

"I-Will-Take-Her." he growled, his voice became darker as he spoke.

"N-no!" Sango shouted.

"Hush child! Ye are making it difficult for Inu-Yasha! His inner demon would not and will not harm Kagome intentionally! Inu-Yasha's human half would not allow it."

Sango stared at Keade like she had gone mad, but at the stern look Sango backed down.

"Inu-Yasha do not stay more then need be, ye must get your wounds healed!" Inu-Yasha nodded and he began to run out, when Keade stopped him. "Remember Inu-Yasha, Do Not Stay!"

With another quick nod he sprinted off making his way towards the well.
