Sesshoumaru studied the befuddling miko for a moment before deciding he would have to deal with his thoughts later. Night was beginning to fall and they were a great distance from the well. The taiyoukai had to admit, if only to himself, that the miko had surprising endurance. She had run much further than he had expected. Now, however, she looked as if she were about to pass out.
"Come, I will escort you back to the well so that you may return to your time."
Kagome sighed but nodded. "Which way?" she asked impatiently. All she wanted now was to slip into a hot bath, even though all those annoying little cuts and scrapes would probably burn like hell when she did.
Sesshoumaru held out one hand, pointing her in the right direction, and then watched as she stomped off. He couldn't help but wonder how much more energy she had in her. One eyebrow rose as his beast whispered that she could obviously handle not only a chase, but the fun after the capture as well, despite her humanity. The taiyoukai mentally scolded his instinctual half while considering just what he'd said. It was true. Most humans would have passed out cold by now, or at least have demanded a break. Kagome, however, was still trudging along even though her discomfort was obvious.
The miko grit her teeth to keep from whimpering in pain as she walked. She was determined to keep from showing Sesshoumaru weakness. He was a part of their pack now, an ally, and she would not have him think that she was a burden, that she couldn't take care of herself. Why that was suddenly so important, she didn't know, but it was. She'd certainly gotten tougher over time during her travels and she knew she could handle it, even if she did burst into tears the second she made it through the well.
