Kagome walked into the village with a determined look to her as her son sat worriedly on her shoulder wondering if he did right by telling her exactly what happened.
Inuyasha, Sango, and Miroku were all seated peacefully in Kaede's hut as Kaede was preparing some herbs for them to take with them on their journey that she knew they would be leaving on soon.
Slowly Kaede's head looked up as she felt the angry aura of the young Priestess approaching with the young fox demon. 'So the young one has told his mother of what has transpired since her departure yesterday.' she mused.
No sooner was she done with her musing did the door flap open to reveal what appeared to be a very happy and calm Priestess and her kit, oh how looks can be deceiving at times.
"Good morning all!" Kagome chirped happily while arching an eye brow at a certain half demon, who's eye brows were twitching nervously.
"Good morning Lady Kagome!" said Miroku.
"Good morning sister!" exclaimed Sango. "What brings you back so quickly? I thought that you would be gone for another day or two."
"No, I told Inuyasha to tell you all that I would be back this morning, I guess it just slipped his little, small, distracted, busy mind." she said slowly getting angrier with each word; finishing with clenched teeth.
"Ow Wench, what are you babbling on about now?" he stated while trying to act as if he had no clue as to what was wrong with her. He already knew that the kit told his mother like the little tattle tale that he was.
Kagome just stared in disbelief, 'Does he honestly think that he is fooling anyone?' she thought. She then thought back to what Shippo had just told her.
(Flashback)
Shippo started telling her with a nervous voice, "After you left yesterday with Inuyasha taking a nose dive in the dirt, thanks to your sits; we all just sat around and helped Lady Kaede out as best as we could. After a short while of Inuyasha not returning I decided that I would go and look for him since Lady Kaede said she needed his help with something."
Kagome asked, "What did she need help with that none of you could have helped with?"
"She needed his help with a tree that had fallen that she wanted to be cut up. Inuyasha was to break it up and Miroku and I were to disburse the wood to all of the huts of the village for supplies."
She smiled, she knew that Shippo didn't like the idea that he, being a full demon, needed a half breed to do something because he wasn't strong enough himself.
"Anyways when I noticed that Inuyasha didn't follow you all the way to the well I knew that he was still in this era. I followed his scent, all the way to the Tree of Life. Mama it was there that I masked my scent as I saw him there with that dead Priestess, Kikyo." he stated as he noticed that his mother was getting more curious.
"I stood in the shadows and I heard everything that they said to one another, Kikyo basically asked Inuyasha to mate her and he agreed to it. It was when he said that he was going to wish for her to become alive again with the sacred jewel that I decided that I was going to let him know I was there." he paused.
Kagome picked him up and asked, "Shippo, sweetie, what is wrong? You know I don't harbor feelings like that for him anymore."
"It's not that Mama, it is the fact that Kikyo informed him that such a wish would close the well forever and that you would no longer exist, since you are supposedly her reincarnation. Inuyasha just said that he didn't care if you lived or died; all he cared about was her, Kikyo." Shippo cried while finishing with such venom in his voice.
(End Flashback)
"Inuyasha!" Kagome said overly sweetly. "Since you could careless about anyone or anything other than your precious Kikyo, don't ask me any questions; I am no longer you problem to be concerned with. And since you decided to beat the crap out of my son, when he stood up to you to defend me... Sit your ass to hell and back and when you get back you can SIT again!" she yelled the last part before she stormed out of the hut.
Sango, Miroku, Kirara, and Kaede just looked on in shock as they watched Kagome's and Shippo's retreating backs fade in the distance; while glaring and promising death threats to the smashed Inuyasha.
"What did you do or say to make Shippo feel like he had to defend his mother?" Sango asked while trying her best not to kill the half breed.
"I'm not sure that I want to know the answer because Lady Kagome has never been that mad before; not even when she had been spied on at the hot springs before. I was almost certain that she was going to break the beads this time." Miroku stated, a little worried for the young Priestess, whose presence commanded respect always.
Once Inuyasha was able to recover from being sat he replied back, "That little runt spied on me with Kikyo and has the nerve to make me look like the bad one. He got exactly what he asked for and I would do it again too."
Kaede slowly rose and politely asked, "Inuyasha if ye would please so kindly get up and leave my hut for now. I know of what happened with ye and my sister and since you are neither man enough nor demon enough to admit the truth I don't care to see ye right now. Don't worry I won't tell ye friends, I leave that to ye and Kagome to do in time."
