They asked Inuyasha where Kirara was, but she was not there. Then soon noticed a scarf that Kirara had been wearing was on the ground near the yōkai. They then saw the bones of a yōkai near the ape, and believed that the ape ate Kirara. They asked the yōkai if he had eaten Kirara, but he claimed that did not remember those he had eaten. He promised that they would join their friend after he had eaten them. It then launched its fur at them like a bunch of needles, by they dodged it. The yōkai was able to dodge all their attacks by evading them through the tree tops. Sango became furious, and threw her Hiraikotsu at the yōkai and bounced him from the branches.
