Kagome’s heart ached as she looked down at the crumpled form of her friend.  Kouga’s body was tattered and torn from the vicious struggle with the more powerful inuyokai.  She wanted nothing more than to rush to her friend’s side, to soothe his pain and tend his wounds.  She longed to reach out and comfort him.  And yet Kagome didn’t move.  She didn’t dare to.

The angry tension still radiated off Sesshoumaru, his dark energy hung thick in the air seeming to weave and coil about her as solidly as his fur pelt.  He may have spared the other male but his silted red eyes remained locked on his advisory with barely contained aggression.  Any show of preference towards her friend and the tenuous grip on his rage could slip and Kagome doubted that she could stop him again.  Past alley or not, Sesshoumaru would happily tear the wolf limb from limb.

Kagome swallowed thickly past the lump in her throat as she forced herself to turn her back on her injured friend, reaching out to take hold of the dog demons sleeve.  A soft tug and she was once again the focus of that crimson stare.

“Thank you Sesshoumaru-sama.”

A/N: I honestly believe turning her back on an injured friend would probably be the hardest thing for Kagome to EVER do.  But she would do it if it meant saving their life.
