She loved him more than anyone or anything, and she'll leave him for both their sakes…

Chapter 5: Unravel

It was after the dawn of morning. Shippo was the first to wake up that day and as he woke up he immediately looked for his friend miko who he thought had slept late that night. He stood up and looked around to see if Kagome was still asleep. But as he searched for her around the hut, she was nowhere in sight. The first thing then that the kitsune did was to look outside the hut to see if the miko had just walked around the village or fetched some water from the river nearby. But as he looked around the village and by the river, he didn't see any Kagome.

Oh…where is she? The kitsune thought, worried of what might have happened to her. The kitsune couldn't think of anything that he could do, so he returned to old Kaede's hut and woke the others up.

"Inuyasha! Inuyasha!" he shook the hanyo to wake him. As he called the hanyo's name he didn't know that he had also awaken the others by his loud voice. The hanyo woke up and saw Shippo on his lap looking at him, with a worried expression on his face.

"What is it Shippo?" Inuyasha asked the young fox demon, "Why did you wake me up this early." The hanyo was angered by what the young demon did that he wanted to punch the kitsune. But then before he could do it, Shippo told him,

"Inuyasha, Ka-Ka-Kagome is…" The kitsune said shaken and almost in tears.

As the hanyo heard the miko's name, he stopped what he was going to do and looked at the kitsune seriously.

"Kagome?" he said and searched the hut for the miko recklessly, "Where is Kagome?" he asked Shippo.

"I-I don't know. When I woke up she wasn't there at her sleeping bag." Shippo was almost gonna cry but stopped himself.

"What's happening Inuyasha?" Miroku asked the hanyo as he yawned.

"Where's Kagome?" Sango asked the hanyo as well, also yawning as Kirara stretched himself to wake his senses.

"This is bad." The hanyo said as he thought of where Kagome could be, "I'm going to find her."

And so the hanyo went out of the hut to look for the miko. But before he could go far, Inuyasha saw the miko walking towards his direction. Kagome. He thought. The he called to her,

"Kagome!"

The miko looked at where the voice had come from and saw Inuyasha running towards her. He stopped on where she is and was met by the hanyo.

"Where have you been?!" the hanyo asked her angrily.

"I-I'm sorry Inuyasha. I just took a stroll in the forest." The miko said to him.

"Don't do this again, Kagome! Or I'll- I'll…Oh Kagome." The hanyo, in his fear of loosing the miko hugged her close in his arms. "Never do this to me again Kagome. Okay?" the hanyo whispered to the miko as he hugged her more close.

The Miko's heart leaped as the hanyo showed his concern to her. In her mind, this was enough to make her happy before she goes with Naraku.

"Inuyasha, it's okay. I'll never do it again. I promise." The miko said as she hugged the hanyo back.

After a while, both of them parted from each other's embrace. Miroku, Sango, Shippo and Old Kaede looked at the two and just smiled at what they saw.

"Come on, let's go back to the hut." Inuyasha said as he took the miko's hand to lead her to the hut but the miko stayed on where she was. The hanyo stopped as he felt that the miko wasn't leaving her place. He looked at the miko and saw sorrow in her eyes,
