She threw open the door and called to her family, "Momma, Sota, Jii-chan I am home!" She stood there for a moment and got no response. 'Huh, that is odd, they must still be out getting the necessities for the party' which was still five hours away. She sighed to herself, then a smile slowly crept across her lips. 'Well at least this gives me some time to take that nice relaxing bath I have been meaning to take.' She went to dash up the stairs completely forgetting she was not alone, she felt someone roughly grab her arm as she hit the first step. 'Oh crap, what am I going to do with him. He surely isn't going to watch me bathe, but I can't leave him alone he might try to head out alone.' If that heppened she knew there would be disaster, making up her mind she slowly turned to him.

He could see her cheeks start to turn a bright red color as she turned to him, keeping her head down preventing him from looking into her eyes. 'What is she up to now' he wondered to himself. At first he had thought she was sick, but then he saw the smile that had breifly remained before fading as she started to speak. "I need to get cleaned up before the party, I can't go around smelling like trees and dirt in front of my guests. I do not trust to leave you alone so you will have to come into the bathroom with me. You will face the wall and not peek while I do this, do I make myself perfectly clear?" He released her arm slowly as what she said started to sink in fully. When he had not responded she grew impatient with him, "I will take that as a yes, now follow me." She turned her back to him and started up the stairs to her room, going over what she was going to wear to the party in her mind.

Sango was the first to reach the well, she stopped abruptly causing the other two to bump into her knocking her to the ground. In front of them Inu Yasha sat on the ledge of the well, his face was buried in his hands. They could hear the soft sound of whimpers coming from him and saw that that his shoulders were heaving terribly. Sango picked herself up off the ground and walked over to her friend, as she went to place her hand on his shoulder to calm him he backed away quickly.

"Don't touch me!" he shouted angrily. She jumped back startled, tears forming in her eyes, all the while trying to figure out what made her friend hurt so badly. Shippo brought her out of her thoughts quickly with his question spoken through his tembling voice. "Where is Kagome?" His voice growing a bit more bold out of anger when he relized that Inu Yasha had most likely made her mad and she had gone back home, "what did you do to her this time, you baka?" The whimpering ceased abruptly, then the half dog demon was standing right before Miroku and Sango with the fox kit's throat in his hands. "That's none of your damned buisness, you useless child" he growled as he threw him against the nearest tree. With a sickening thud, the fox hit the tree and fell to the ground. The other two looked in disbelief as they watched him fly from Inu Yasha's hands to the tree.

Sango began to run to the child to comfort him and to make sure he was okay but was frozen in her tracks when she heard him growl again. Slowly she turned to face him, she blanched, his once golden eyes were now turning red. Miroku knew he only had seconds to come up with something that would give them time to get away from the angered Inu Yasha before he went mad and killed all three of them. Not thinking to clearly, he blurted out the first thing that came to mind, "What would Kagome think if you killed us?" A flash of gold returned to his eyes, Miroku seeing his chance grabbed Sango and the unconscious kitsune, then he spun on his heels and headed as fast as he could back towards the village. Not once did he glance behind him, he didn't want to know if he was being followed. He could see the village coming up fast, he ran directly to Kaede's home hoping that maybe she would have some answers for them and she could heal the poor kitsune. He could see the blood coming out of the child's nose and mouth now, saying a silent prayer he hoped he wasn't to late.
