Making sure that everyone was asleep this time Inuyasha went outside once more. 'Training, that is what I need. I must talk to Totosai about gaining a new sword. Then I will battle demons to work some of the kinks out of my body. I must get stronger, either that or watch as all my loved ones die. I will not be cheated in life again.'
Going through a simple training routine Inuyasha leap from tree to tree gaining speed as he went. 'Hmm...this is fine for a beginner but I must gain true speed.' Leaping down to the forest floor Inuyasha prepared a cache of rocks and branches, by forming a makeshift sling Inuyasha added the weights to his body. Again, Inuyasha leap through the trees, but at a much slower pace. 'This should be nothing for a demon to handle, I must be able to carry this I am half-demon. The blood runs through my veins I will conquer this human heart of mine, I will make it solid as ice and strong as stone.' With renewed vigor Inuyasha traveled through the night fine tuning his skills, whether they be speed, strength, or the flexibility needed to avoid his enemies attacks.
'It is nearly daybreak, I must hurry back. No need for the girls to get worried about me....okay I have to stop thinking of them. They will drive me to fail in my task, I must ignore them for their own safety. Because if another demon takes me down there is no possible way that monk can defeat it.' Arriving at the modest hut Inuyasha peered inside and found all occupants sleeping soundly, believing that he would do more harm than good by sneaking back into the hut Inuyasha leaned against the exterior wall in wait of the new day.
"Inuyasha, are you okay? Why did you sleep out here?"
"Kagome, it is nothing. I was just feeling a little cramped inside there. Let's head out, we must find Totosai. I need his assistance in forming me a new sword." Confused by his sudden icy demeanor Kagome was startled when a bolt of lightning struck the ground behind her. "Totosai's bull, he must be here for the Tetsaiga, you all will wait here. I will see the old man and get a new sword."
Surprised by his statement Kagome grew angry and prepared to "Sit" Inuyasha, until the half-demon gave her such a glance that freezed her heart. "I will be back Kagome, don't worry. You will be safe here, make sure that monk protects you and Sango. Also, tell that monk that I know his tricks and to behave. He will understand, good bye Kagome."
Without another word Inuyasha jumped atop of the bull and was lifted to Kami knows where. 'Inuyasha, what has happened to you? Why have you done this? Distancing yourself from me?'
