3[Kagome: I can’t go back to Feudal Japan…what’s going on?]

Page 119
2[Shippo: What are you doing? Inu-yasha!
Inu-yasha: Shuddup!]
3[Shippo: If you screw up the Well…then won’t Kagome not be able to come back?]
4[Shippo: Then you’d never see her again! Is that really OK with you?]
5[Inu-yasha: Hn! With her here, then I won’t be able to battle at my best!]

Page 120
1[Inu-yasha: Miroku! Let’s go!
Miroku: To where…]
2[Inu-yasha: Do you really need to ask? Of course, we’re going to find Naraku, and kill him!]
4[Miroku: Shippo…
Shippo: I’m not going!]
5[Shippo: I hate…Inu-yasha!]
6[Inu-yasha: Hn! Suit yourself!]
7[Miroku: What you did was too severe…even though I know that you don’t want Kagome to be in danger…]

Page 121
1[Inu-yasha: If you know then, shut up!
Miroku: Don’t you think it’s strange?]
2[Miroku: Inu-yasha, 50 years ago, in this village you fell in Naraku’s trap…
Inu-yasha: Uh!]
3[Miroku: So another way of saying it--- would be that you’ve already met Naraku.]
5[Flashback: Voice: Inu-yasha, you can turn into a human. If you only use the Shikon no Tama…]
6[Kikyo: Tommorrow at dawn, wait for me here… I will bring the Shikon no Tama.]

Page 122
1[Kikyo: Die! Inu-yasha!
Inu-yasha: So you’re bent on tricking me! Kikyo! (end flashback)]
3[Inu-yasha: I said…I saw the form of Kikyo that he took on, I have never seen the guys real appearance.]
4[Miroku: That’s the strange part---you’ve never met Naraku, but then why does he hate you…]
5[I heard that the deceasaed Kikyo-san was a priestess, perhaps…what Naraku did wasn’t towards you…]

Page 123
1[Miroku: But towards Kikyo-san…something might have happened between the two, we can never tell.]
2[Inu-yasha: Kikyo and Naraku…]
3[Girl 1: Ohayo!
Girl 2: Ohayo!
Gril 3: Ah…
Girl 4: Kagome! (These last two seem to be Kagome’s friends)]

Page 124
1[Kagome: Huh…]
2[Girl 3: Long time no see, is your rheumatism better yet?
Girl 4: And the foot disease…
Kagome:…]
3[Girl 3: Huh? Your clothes?
Girl 4: What happened?
Kagome: Uh…]
4[Kagome: I got my uniform dirty…there was a lot of blood on there…
Girl 4: Kagome, have you gotten a blood coughing disease this time…?]

Page 125
1[Kagome: Inu-yasha…was hurt badly.
2[And the blood didn’t stop…]
3[It worries me…]
4[At that time, he hugged me so tightly…]
6[Flashback: Inu-yasha: The shard from the Shikon no Tama… let me keep it!]

Page 126
1[Kagome: He made my senses relax, was that all for stealing the Shikon shard? Unforgivable---!!]
2[Teacher: Higurashi, go stand in the hall.]
3[Kagome: Huff---that was the first time I’ve been hugged…by a boy so deep in his chest…]
4[Kagome: …]

Page 127
1[Kagome: I guess he could be counted as a boy…even if he’s only half of a person…]
2[Kaede: Inu-yasha, your wound is very deep, you can battle for the time being.
Inu-yasha: Shuddup! It’ll be better in two, three days.]
3[Inu-yasha: That reminds me, Kaede-obabaa…about this guy Naraku, do you remember anything about him?]
4[Kaede: Mm…I was thinking…ever since…Kikyo onee-sama was revived…]

Page 128
1[Flashback: Kikyo: Inu-yasha! It was you! You wounded me with your claws then took away the Shikon no Tama! (end flashback)]
2[Kaede: The one who disguised himself as Inu-yasha, it would have been all over if he just took the Shikon no Tama and left, but…]
3[He made you destroy the village, letting everyone believe that it was youwho wanted to steal the Shikon no Tama.]
4[Then, he let Kagome kill you with her own hands.]

Page 129
1[Kaede: Did he want you two to despise each other…or…]
2[Kaede: Did he want Kikyo onee-sama’s heart…to be polluted by hatred and anger?
Inu-yasha: Oh…?]
3[Kaede: Kikyo onee-sama carried the Shikon no Tama on her body, because she was purifying it. ]
4[If Kikyo onee-sama’s heart was to be polluted, the Jewel would be polluted as well adding to it evil capabilities…]
5[At that time, there was only one who wished it to that way.
Inu-yasha: I]
6[Kaede: Would you like to see…where he was…]

Page 130
1[Kaede: He was a bandit by the name of Oni Spider.
Inu-yasha: Bandit?]
2[Kaede: He did some awful things in a neighboring country, then came running here…]
3[Kaede: At that time…Kikyo onee-sama took him in.
Inu-yasha: Kikyo? Why?]
4[Kaede: Because…Oni Spider couldn’t move at all.
Inu-yasha: !?]
5[Kaede: We’re here…]

Page 131
1[Kaede: It was here in this cave…]
2[His body had been burnt terribly, especially his face, in a way that you wouldn’t be able to recognize him anymore. And the fact that he fell off a cliff…both feet had been broken.]
3[Even through all of this, Oni Spider still didn’t die. Despite the fact that he couldn’t nove… after he ate, he would always be able to talk.]

Page 132
1[Kaede: But…the guy’s nature…]
2[Flashback: Oni Spider: Hey…kid!
Kaede: My name is Kaede.]
3[Oni Spider: Heard around that the Shikon no Tama…is on your onee-sama’s body…?]
4[Kaede: How did you know…about the Shikon no Tama?]
5[Oni Spider: Bad people…all want to get their hands on that Jewel.
Kaede: Are you one too?]
6[Oni Spider: The more hateful blood the Jewel sucks up…the more evil power it will have, isn’t that right?]
7[Kaede: Onee-sama is cleansing it right now, that won’t happen!]
8[Oni Spider: Kikyo always looks so calm and pure…]
9[I really want to see, her disturbed…it’s interesting when I think about it…heh heh…]

Page 133
1[Kaede: Onee-sama! I really hate that guy!
Kikyo: Are you talking about…Oni Spider?]
2[Kikyo: But, forgive him! That man has suffered his whole life, now he has to lie in a cave.]
3[Not long after that, onee-sama killed Inu-yasha, herself dying right after…]
4[A few days later, I went to pay a visit to this place, the guy’s cave had been burned as well.]
5[Within the engulfing flames, Oni Spider could not has escaped…]
6[Kaede: Not even his bones remained after the fire.
Inu-yasha: Wait! Kaede-obabaa.]

Page 134
1[Inu-yasha: So you’re saying, Oni Spider was a human! But I’m searching for Naraku who’s a demon.]
2[Kaede: I’m sure…no matter how evil he was, he was still a human. I’m certain that I didn’t get that wrong.]
3[Miroku: Let’s go in and take a look! This cave…]
4[Perhaps…will give us a clue…]
