Kagome returns home, upset with InuYasha pettily ignoring Koga, later revealed that she is just retrieving medical supplies. Naraku finds Kikyo, but realizes that he is unable to kill her because he still carries Onigumo's heart deep within him. In order to destroy her, he takes away the souls that she needs to remain animated and a weakened Kikyo flees only to end up back the Sacred Tree where she imprisoned InuYasha. Her souls are returned back to her thanks to InuYasha, but she takes a sudden leave after the two embrace, as a hurt and dejected Kagome watches behind a tree.
