[ T - Teen: Not suitable for readers under 13 ]

InuYasha sat in a tree near the well, waiting impatiently. "Where is she??" He muttered to himself. He was about to jump down and go into the well to get her himself, but then he saw her coming out. "Finally!" he said, stepping off his branch. But the next thing he saw caused him to quickly catch the next passing branch. A boy from her world had followed her out!

InuYasha sat on the branch, glaring down at the pair. "Who the hell is he?!" he growled to himself. "And what is he doing with my Kagome?" Kagome took the boy's hand and started to lead him into the forest.

         InuYasha jumped down as they passed under him, landing directly in front of Kagome. She jumped, then sighed in relief. The boy, on the other hand, looked like he'd seen a, well, demon.

         "Who is he, Kagome?" InuYasha barked. "And why is he here?!"

         Kagome smiled. "This, InuYasha, is my boyfriend."

         InuYasha was shocked speechless, then turned to glare at the boy.

         "You could at least say 'Hello,' InuYasha!" Kagome said.

         InuYasha sneered, then grabbed Kagome and jumped into a nearby tree. The boy ran to the well, and stood there, looking helpless.

         "InuYasha, what is your problem!?" Kagome questioned, pulling away from him.

         "Why did you bring him here?!" InuYasha shouted, unable to hide his jealousy. "He doesn't belong here!" InuYasha glared down at the boy, anger pulsating throughout his body. "What does she see in him?!" he raged inside himself. "He's only a scrawny little boy!! I could tear him apart in five seconds! No, three!! He can't protect her! Why-"

         "InuYasha!!" He glanced up at Kagome, seeing fury and horror in her face. "Don't you dare, InuYasha!" InuYasha looked at her, puzzled, then realized he'd been flexing his claws the whole time he had been lost in thought.

         "Why not?" He growled. "He isn't worth her." He snarled to himself. Suddenly, he sprang from the tree towards the boy, jealousy filling his senses.

         "SIT!!" He heard the command, then saw the ground flying up to meet him in the face. When he pulled himself up, the boy was gone. He snarled and sprang up to Kagome's branch.

         "What's your problem? I wouldn't of hurt him!" He thought to himself, "..much."

         "I don't believe you, InuYasha!" Kagome said, then climbed down the tree and stalked off towards the well.

         "Hey, where are you going? We need to find more shards!" He yelled after her. "Kagome!!" But she didn't stop. She disappeared down the well.


       & nbsp; "After being gone four days, she came back and then left again? Why??" Shippo asked, confused and sad. InuYasha shrugged. He had left out the part about the boy and his jealous rage, but Songo could tell something was up.

         "That's not the whole story, is it InuYasha?"

         "What do you mean?" He snarled, standing with his arms crossed. "Of course it is! She just came, then left. I watched her from a nearby tree."

         "M-maybe she forgot something." Shippo whimpered. InuYasha shrugged and turned away, glaring out into the setting sun.
