Shippo

Shippo was orphaned by the Thunder Brothers, a pair of vicious demons who craved power at any cost. When he attempted to avenge the death of his father, Shippo was aided by Kagome and Inuyasha. Finding companionship and safety, Shippo opted to stay with the rag-tag group in their quest for shards of the Shikon no Tama.


Friends

Originally wary of accepting Shippo into his band of travellers, Inuyasha fills in the gap left by Shippo's dead father, offering him protection and guidance as the fox-demon child grows.


Kagome

Offering Shippo her friendship as soon as they met, Kagome provides the child a mother figure, protecting him from Inuyasha's harsh glare and even harsher claws when Kagome's special ninja snacks run low.
