Kagome, feeling a bit overwhelmed by the journey, suggests that she and Kikyo should go off on their own for a little while. Inuyasha reluctantly agrees, and the two women set off together.

As they make their way through the forest, Kikyo tries to engage Kagome in conversation, but Kagome is still feeling a bit uneasy around her. Kikyo explains that she understands the pain Kagome must be feeling, as she too has lost someone she loved deeply - Inuyasha. Kagome still doesn't know quite how to respond, but agrees that she too loves Inuyasha.

After a while, they come across a cave and decide to take refuge there for the night. Kikyo notices that Kagome still seems uneasy around her, and begins to open up about her own life and experiences. She talks about how difficult it was for her to come back to life and how lonely she has been since then. She also talks about how she has grown to accept that her fate is to always be trapped between life and death.

The conversation takes a dark turn when Kikyo reveals that she was the one who shot the arrow that stopped Inuyasha's heart 50 years ago, and that she did it out of fear and anger. Kagome is shocked and angry at first, but Kikyo explains that she has come to accept her own darkness and regrets, and hopes that Kagome can do the same.

In the morning, as they prepare to leave the cave, Kikyo senses Naraku's presence nearby and warns Kagome to be careful. Kagome is grateful for Kikyo's warning and the two women part ways, feeling closer than ever before.

Overall, "Only Kikyo and Kagome in a Cave" is an emotional and introspective episode that explores the complex relationships between the show's main characters. It offers viewers a deeper understanding of Kikyo's character, and explores themes of love, regret, and learning to accept oneself.
