The pink fingers of dawn were just creeping over the horizon when Inuyasha came into view. He was cradling a sleeping Kagome in his arms and looked exceptionally pleased with himself. He bent down to pick up her sleeping bag, and would have jumped back into the tree with his precious cargo had Sango not interfered.
"I can't believe you did that!" she scolded, keeping her yelling to a whisper to avoid waking Kagome, whose flushed appearance indicated that she was still not well.
"Did what?" he asked with a happy yawn.
"You totally took advantage of her!" Sango continued, still in a soft voice. "Kagome is so innocent, so pure, and you. you just took that all away from her, knowing that she wasn't in her right mind."
Inuyasha looked at her in confusion, then blushed, turning his face away from Sango. "Feh!" he exclaimed, adjusting his hold of Kagome as he fidgeted. "Who do you think I am, Miroku?"
"Hey!" Miroku objected.
"I didn't do *that* to Kagome," Inuyasha insisted, still not making eye contact. "I marked her as my mate, but of course I didn't consummate our bond. Not only was she not in her right mind, and ill, but also she is way too young by her society's standards. In Kagome's world, almost nobody marries before they have at least 18 years, and if I got her with pups, she wouldn't be able to go home and finish her school."
What do you mean by marked?" Miroku asked. Inuyasha tilted Kagome's head to the side to show off the marking, grinning in pride. Shippou jumped onto Inuyasha's shoulder for a better look.
"That's a really good mark!" the kitsune youkai said with an approving nod.
"Yeah, I know," Inuyasha said, inspecting the mark once again for himself. Then, in more characteristic Inuyasha behavior, he grabbed Shippou by the tail and flung him from his shoulder. "We're going to sleep," he announced, leaping high into the tree with Kagome and her sleeping bag.
"What about shard hunting?" Sango wanted to know.
"Are you crazy?" Inuyasha asked, leaning against the trunk of the tree, Kagome in his lap, and spreading the unzipped sleeping bag over the both of them. "Kagome is still sick! She needs lots of rest and fluids. Hey, Shippou, toss me a few of those juice box things from her bag."
"What's with him?" Miroku asked the kitsune youkai as he pawed through Kagome's yellow backpack.
Shippou tossed Inuyasha the requested items before turning back to Miroku. His face was very serious when he answered, "Mates have to take care of each other."
