Kagome seems unharmed! At least that's what he hopes!
Two deer flee from him as he quickly approaches them. Kagome's scent leads him into the forest and no matter what happens he has to find her! His breath races with the rapid movements with which he moves. The time does not want to pass in which he sprints through the many branches and his mood rises to the worse. `
Where is she? How can it have run for so long?
Inuyasha lets out an angry growl and his eyes show the anger that is developing within him. He can't wait anymore, he's never been good at it. He wants to know how she is doing, where she is, what she is doing! And he wants to know why! Why didn't she tell him everything? Isn't he worthy enough to know? Just because he's a hanyou? A half demon. Doesn't she trust him? Seems so, because otherwise she would not have run away again, run away without saying a word!
His teeth grind as he grits them tightly together. He no longer wants to bear this ignorance that springs him not to know why!
His feet force themselves off the ground and take him outside. As he pierces the building crown, some leaves get caught in his silver-white hair, but they are torn away by the wind. For a few seconds he remains hanging in the air as if magically and can get a great overview. Nothing but forest! You can only see the canopy of leaves from the huge trunks.
How was he supposed to find Kagome here? It's hopeless! Only his sense of smell alone can help him. But the scent from her will soon fade away. Then he has no more chance, so to speak. His sensitive ears twitch when they hear a faint thunder in the distance. Inuyasha looks at the sky a little further away.He can't tell the difference to the clouds above him because it's still so dark that squinting has to help him to see something. But his hearing never deceives him! A storm is approaching. He was just missing that! When it starts raining, the smell is gone from her entirely. He then has to trust his luck. But the way he thinks it will let him down! He has to hurry. He looks around frantically. His hope for any clue from Kagomes is thin but there! There must be something that can help him. But his view isn't very good up here. He sees everything only roughly and his eyes ache from the wind that is blowing towards him.
His heart is crying out for her, but he doesn't know why.
“Kagome, where are you?” His shouting is lost under the roar of the wind. The despair in him grows. He looks down. He approaches the building crowns below. He looks around once more and his gaze catches on a clearing that does not extend far in front of him. He could swear he saw something glow just then. A white / pink light.
Is there a splinter of the jewel? Maybe this is Kagome's Shard!
Like a feather, it glides through the branches and lands on the grass-rich ground. As if stung by a tarantula, he races off towards the clearing. His breath is quick. He has to convince himself of his thought! Maybe he'll find Kagome there.
At the edge of the forest his steps slow down and finally come to an end. He looks around. Thanks to his good eyes, he can see very well. The clearing extends infinitely before him, so it seems to him. Not a single tree is here. The clearing is just empty. No flower or anything, just grass. And yet it is unusually beautiful and harmonious for him.
One last time he flitted his gaze over the open country. Did he swap when he saw the glow or did it come from somewhere else?At least he doesn't see any of the white-pink light here.
He holds his nose towards the wind and sniffs. Just now he clearly still has her smell in his nose, but now he is magically gone. He just stops. He frowns in amazement.
"Maybe you should look elsewhere!", The thought suddenly occurs to him. Yes, that might really be better!
Slowly he puts one foot back and turns on his own axis. But he stops in the middle. Something is holding him tight, won't let him go. Something magical.
He turns his head back slightly to the clearing. Nothing has changed. What shoud that? Somehow his body doesn't want to move. He turns back fully to the large empty area and decides to wait. Maybe something else will happen.
He stands there for a while and his gaze watches over the clearing. But his thoughts are with Kagome and the small hope of finding her safe and sound ...
After a long wait, she still has not shown up and slowly his hope is fading. The rumble of thunder is getting closer and soon will be over him. There is now no point in continuing his search elsewhere. It will rain soon. You can see how he lets his cute dog ears droop.
Where did Kagome go? How can he and his friends find the splinters and thus Naraku without them? He bites his lip so he can taste his blood. He knows he's kidding himself. He misses her, worries about her.
And above all, his conscience is eating away at him from the inside. He blames himself so much that he couldn't take care of her properly because she's gone again. For a moment he closes his eyes doggedly and clenches his hands into fists. His head goes down. Has he treated her so badly that she doesn't care? Does she think that he can cope with something like that or that he doesn't care what she does?Oh no, since she swapped. He only vows to himself that he will find her and ask to speak, no matter what the cost. Resolutely, he raises his gaze and wants to make his way to the others. Maybe they'll help him find Kagome. After all, they also won Kagome as a friend. He is just about to avert his gaze from the fascinating clearing when he sees an older girl standing in the moonlight. His eyes get a little bigger. Kagome.
She stands there, just like that and seems to be looking in his direction and yet again not. The light of the moon and his very good eyes help him to better recognize the outlines and details of her. Her school uniform is dirty, as it was last time, and the nat is torn in some places. Her face shows how tired she is, because deep circles have formed under her eyes. Her hair also looks devastated. They stand in all directions and here and there leaves and small branches have become entangled in them. But where does it come from? He could swear he hadn't seen her before. Did she appear out of nowhere?
But the main thing is that he has found her. Now he can take her home. But something puzzles him. Your eyes. You are full of fear and helplessness. What does she have?
Slowly she takes a step backwards and looks further in his direction, looking him up and down. Does she not recognize him?
A long moan leaves his lips so that Kagome cannot hear it. That's right, she doesn't have so good eyesight and it looks like he's still standing in the shade of the trees.
"Then I'll confront you now!" Is his thought before crossing the line between moonlight and shadow.

************************ Retrospect ************************

"Hey, what's up?"
Kagome looks at Inuyasha with her fawn-brown eyes, a little puzzled. What does he have suddenly that he is so lost in thought?Inuyasha starts up when he hears her soft voice and now looks into her eyes again with a fixed look.
"Could it be that this light also came from the splinter?"
Kagome are amazed by these words.
"Light? Which light? Maybe ……… Midoriko has something to do with it!" Now Inu Yasha is the one who looks at the 15 year old student in amazement. "Why Midoriko?"
Kagome hesitates at first, but then she takes a deep breath and begins to describe her exciting days. Again and again she has to explain to Inuyasha in more detail what she actually wanted to avoid. Of course, our half-demon saw right through and deliberately followed up. Then came the story with Kikyo.
“So Kikyo was only needed to protect the jewel, so to speak?” Inu Yasha was skeptical and a bit appalled, that could be clearly felt, heard as well as seen.
"No, she wasn't just there to take care of the jewel, that's definitely not what she meant. After all, she protected her village before she had the jewel. No, I don't think she was just there was for the jewel. She was for her village, her sister ... "Kagome looks up and looks deep into Inuyasha's eyes. "... And there for you!" She smiles slightly to believe her word that she needs for Inuyasha.
The Hanyou lifts his gaze and looks into the already black sky and his. Hard raindrops patter on his face. But his thoughts are with the words of the girl standing next to him. Is it true what Kagome is saying or did she hit her head after all? But somehow her words are believable to him. Why should she lie to him? Plus, it would finally make sense. Why she just ran away like that, why she didn't talk to him about everything, why she wasn't dead when she fell off the cliff, everything would fit together! Lies are out of the question! But why didn't she tell him the truth right away?Just about the Kikyo thing?
How foolish!
Anger rises in him! Just because of this sheer stupidity, that one shit thing was he worried about?
His head shoots down and looks at the girl standing in front of him with evil eyes.
"That's the only reason you didn't say anything, you hid in your snail shell? Just because of that? Why? Did you find it funny how we were all worried or what?"
Kagome kept shaking his head during these words and tried to travel the word to itself and explain the matter, but he stayed energetic and practically screamed out his anger until it ended. His breathing rages, his body rises and falls sharply, his eyes are doggedly fixed on the slightly frightened Miko in front of him, his soul cries out for an answer.
Kagome's body spasms strongly, her nails cut into the palm of her hand.
"I was afraid ...", she says and swallows "... that you would react like this .......... like now!"
Inu Yasha's eyes are wide.
Right now there is all the anger, all the anger forgotten and nothing but that feeling of a sharp conscience and a mistake. He's
