Hey guys! I'm embarrassed to be asking about this one because I should know it but hopefully someone can help me out.
In this one, Kagome is living in a hut alone and under the control of Inuyasha and Kikyo. She is severely neglected and I remember Shippo is being trained by Sess so he is unable to visit as often and when he does visit Kagome basically clings to him. Sesshoumaru notices this and takes his armor off and has her sit in his lap and holds her to give her the contact she needs. He then decides to take her away from there with him.
That's the basics of the beginning of the story I can remember. I hope someone can help with this!
