Chapter 111: Meddlesome

One day became two. Two became four. And although they were far from the sorts of places where humans flourished, they spied three, then five more. Dirty. Frightened.

“I’ll speak with them,” said Miroku, whose staff jingled reassurances.

Kagome edged closer to the inu-brothers and plucked at Sesshoumaru’s sleeve. “What’s happened?”

His gaze didn’t waver from Miroku. “The monk is meddling.”

Sesshoumaru’s stripes remained a rich magenta. A good sign.

“They’re homeless.” Inuyasha’s ears pricked. “A bunch of them are hiding out here.”

“Hiding from what?” asked Kagome.

Sesshoumaru’s gaze slanted her way. “Why are you interested?”

Because you are.
