                      Suspicious Faith Healer & the Black Kirara
Some villagers are throwing rocks at Kirara. Upon closer inspection it becomes clear that this little cat creature is not actually Kirara. A young girl named Koume calls for "Kuroro" and then tries to take Kirara who is wandering around with Shippo. A strange looking keeps commanding the villagers to attack Kirara and Kurara whenever they come across them. They even throw stones at Miroku when he gets in the way. Eventually the priest is revealed to be a rat demon who is trying to get rid of the cat-like Kirara and Kuroro. Koume and Shippo wind up trapped in a cave with Kuroro's kittens and Shippo has to dig their way out before they run out of air. Inuyasha arrives in time to save Shippo from the rat demon, and Miroku uses one of his sutras to reveal the demon is actually disguised as a rock (earlier Inuyasha had used the Tetsusaiga on him, but it seemed to have no effect since what they believed to be him was actually an illusion). With the demon destroyed peace is restored to the village.

                             Jaken Falls Ill
Sesshomaru, Jaken and Rin are traveling through a forest when Rin’s growling stomach breaks the sylvan peace. Sesshomaru orders Jaken to follow the child. A grumbling Jaken obeys. Unfortunately, all Kagome finds is an empty bag -- the crisps are gone, eaten by her first favorite half-demon -- Inuyasha! It’s also apparent Inuyasha thinks the visit is a waste of time, but Kagome and the rest veto him. Back at Sesshomaru’s group, Rin also finds a snack, but is interrupted by a large demon, which attacks her. Sesshomaru steps in and elegantly dispatches the creature, but instead of dying it dissolves into a swarm of Naraku’s Saimyoushou. Sesshomaru and company have stumbled onto a nest of the cursed insects. Sesshomaru departs, following the remaining insects towards Naraku, leaving Rin and Jaken on their own to deal with Jaken’s injury. The ailing Jaken upsets poor little Rin so much that she set’s off to find the antidote that will save Jaken‘s life. The cure happens to be an herb grown by a fellow named Jinenji. Up the road, Inuyasha senses the approach of the same Saimyoushou that escaped Sesshomaru’s sword. Inuyasha denies any wrongdoing, but Sesshomaru believes his little brother is only making excuses as usual. Furious he’s lost another chance at Naraku, Sesshomaru draws Tokijin and rushes Inuyasha. Rin, in the meantime, has arrived at Jinenji’s house. Jinenji and his mom are home, but Jinenji appears to be indisposed -- he’s a huge lump in bed, hidden entirely by covers. Back at the fight between Inuyasha and Sesshomaru, Sesshomaru succeeds in pinning Inuyasha and prepares to finish off his baby brother when Kagome intervenes. Scene change to Rin, who has made it to the valley where the medicinal plant, grows. Jinenji was right -- it’s a place chocked full of hungry demons, steep cliffs, deep chasms and unstable ledges. Rin harvests the plant, but the ledge it’s on gives way underneath her, and she plummets into the chasm below.Sesshomaru arrives in the nick of time to catch her, rescuing her and the plant. Sesshomaru tosses the remedy to the sick little goblin, much to Jaken’s fawning gratitude. Later than evening, Inuyasha and the gang arrive at Jinenji’s house, where Jinenji is back to his ‘normal’ self. He and his mom tell everyone about the little girl who called on them earlier, seeking an herbal antidote for a sick monster.Jinenji describes the child as resembling Kagome in both looks and sweetness of spirit. Kagome is flattered but Inuyasha tells Jinenji he is way off on his description of Kagome. The comment earns Inuyasha several consecutive ‘sit‘ commands. Returning to Sesshomaru’s ensemble, Rin revives after her ordeal and discovers Jaken alive and well. Rin is delighted! Sesshomaru gathers his ‘clan’ together and set’s off for the Northeast, towards Naraku.

Night time, deep in the forest and the gang is fast asleep around a roaring fire. Something moves through the tall grass towards sleeping campers and Kirara perks up at the sound of the intruder. The scene switches to the morning, and the team is going about his or her individual chores, but someone is missing, KiraraInuyasha tells Sango not to worry -- Kirara probably just went off by herself and she’ll be back on her own later. When later arrives, and Kirara fails to return Inuyasha is on the hot seat for his careless comment. Sango and the others initiate a search for Kirara, including forcing Inuyasha to try and ‘sniff’ out the cat, using the felines’ food dish. Kagome asks Sango if she remembers if Kirara might have been upset about anything, but Shippo interrupts with his own theory as to why Kirara disappeared: everyone treated her badly. When Inuyasha was using Kirara to practice his Kaze no Kizu attack, he accidentally fried Kirara’s fur, leaving her with bald spots. Shippo then reminds Miroku that us used Kirara shamelessly to attract pretty girls. Miroku also used Kirara to scare away unattractive women with her “demon cat’ performance. Kagome receives the next accusation: she promised Kirara canned cat food from modern times in exchange for a ride to the well so she could visit home. Instead of coming right back, Kagome took her time, leaving Kirara waiting by the well, and then returned without the kitty treats. Everyone apologizes to Sango for mistreating Kirara, but even Sango feels guilty, too. Sango remembers all the times she took Kirara for granted as a battle partner, giving the cat no reward, rest or gratitude. Everyone admits they’ve done something that could have offended Kirara, including dressing the feline in one of Kagome’s scarves the day she disappeared. The team strikes out once more, searching for the missing cat. During the hunt, they encounter a very large, hostile -- and hungry, monkey monster. Assuming the worst, they ask the monster if he’s eaten Kirara, but the big, stupid ape can’t remember.Next morning, Sango clutches Kirara’s dish to her bosom weeping bitterly in mourning. As the others try to comfort her, Inuyasha lets out a whoop of surprise , Kirara just strolled into camp with Myoga. It seems Myoga borrowed the feline’s services for an errand.

A child’s voice beckons, begging for help and Kagome ventures inside and the opening seals after her. Inside the cave, Kagome discovers Kikyou and the source of the jewel shard; it’s hers. Kikyou appears to be the worse for wear and taken aback to see Kagome inside the cave. When Kagome asks Kikyou what’s wrong, Kikyou tells her they are inside a monster which consumes miko and they are powerless to escape. Lots of uncomfortable memories of Inuyasha and Kikyou assault Kagome, and the subject is dropped due to Kikyou‘s silence. Kikyou’s suffering brings Kagome back to reality; the priestess is becoming progressively weaker. Kikyou advises Kagome go on alone, even handing over her bow and quiver of arrows, but Kagome won’t leave Kikyou behind. Kagome and Kikyou defeat the swarm combining their spiritual power, but the skirmish depletes Kikyou’s energy even further. In order to keep going, Kagome carries Kikyou on her back. Kikyo begins to understand Kagome’s strength; the girl draws power from compassion and humanity. In an unexpected moment of amity, Kikyou responds to Kagome’s earlier conversation, sharing some advice about loving Inuyasha. Once again, Kikyou advises Kagome to save herself, but Kagome won’t abandon her. In the belly of the beast, Kagome attempts to figure out a way to defeat the creature. Kagome shoots at the beast’s core with an arrow bearing Kikyou’s single Shikon shard, with encouraging, but minimal damage. A bigger shard might work, so combining their powers, Kagome and Kikyou bond Kagome’s collection of shards together as one. Kagome fires again, piercing the creature’s heart and frees she and Kikyou. Before the women go their separate ways, Kikyo asks Kagome why she refused to leave her. After a pause, Kagome replies that if something happened to Kikyou, someone might be very sad, and walks away. Kikyou whispers an enigmatic ‘and you, too,” watching Kagome go. As she emerges from the forest, Kagome is surprised to discover Inuyasha waiting for her.
