After a few moments a large twin tailed neko yokai and a tanki yokai came through the trees.
Miroku greeted them, “Ah Hachi and Kirara I am glad you came.”
Hachi bowed as Kirara transformed to her smaller form, “You called for us Master Miroku?”
Miroku smiled, “That I did Hachi my friends and I need both of you to assist us in getting to the Western Lord’s home. Do you think that you could help us with this?”
Kirara meowed and transformed back as Hachi answered, “Yes Master Miroku we would be glad to help.”
Miroku turned to the others as Hachi transformed, “Well are we all ready to go?”
Sango cleared her throat as she stared at Kirara, “I would like to ride Kirara.”
Miroku chuckled, “Very well Lady Sango I will ride with you.”
Kagura pulled her feather, “I can ride my feather.”
Kouga smirked, “I can run I will be able to keep up.”
Kikyo smiled, “Kagome, the children and I can ride Hachi. Only if you think you can handle carrying all of us Hachi.”
Hachi just nodded his head. Kagome called to the children that it was time to go. Shippo burst through the trees with tears streaming down his face.
Kagome scooped him up concern clearly showing on her face, “Shippo what is wrong and where is Rin?”
Shippo whimpered as he spoke, “We were playing and did not see it a snake bit her Mama I ran back to get you as fast as I could.”
Kagome gasped and they all speed off to where Shippo lead them. Kagome scooped Rin into her arms looking her over the snake was long gone.
She cried out in fear when she found the bit, “It was a poisonous snake the wound is already festering.”
Kikyo grabbed Kagome’s arm and pulled her up gently, “We must hurry to Lord Touga’s home and get her to the healers.”
Everyone in agreement they quickly got to their modes of transportation.
Kouga called out to everyone, “We have to get there quickly so that the poison will not kill her.”
After having everyone’s agreement that they would not stop until they reached the Western palace they set a fast pace. All praying that they would make it in time to save the youngest of their group.
