"Miss Higurashi, we need you to come down to the Tenshi Morgue as soon as possible."
That phone call has changed everything that dark rainy night, unknown to anyone that this night has change the life of a certain family, a certain child, and a certain woman. The soft clicking of heels walking down the eerie hallway of the morgue left a haunting echo in one woman's mind. A man dress in a white lab coat looks up at the sound of someone walking down the hall to see a woman with raven hair walking towards him with a worried and curious look in her ocean blue eyes, "Miss Higurashi, I presume?" the man calls to the woman. She nods her head shifting on her feet when she stop in front of the man, she had a bad feeling about being her. Morgues are not happy places nor do you want to be called to come into one. "My name is Hayate, please follow me." He says opening the door to his left, she follows the man down a small flight of stairs looking at the room where there are at least six or seven steel beds lined up, her eyes look to her left to see a wall with drawers that are a good size to fit a body in that thought alone made her stomach turn. "Follow me." He orders walking down the row of drawers inside the wall. The woman quickly falls behind him making her heels click louder causing her to cringe at the noise.
The man stops and pulls out one of the drawers from the wall to revile a woman who could have been the living woman's relative, her dull brown hair, and white skin cause the living woman to hold her stomach. The mortician quickly grabbed a trash can to let the woman empty her stomach into the can. She glance at the tag seeing the name Kikyou Takahashi. Hayate hands her a napkin to wipe her face off, she throws it into the trashcan, covering her mouth with her hand to hold back the sob stuck in her throat. "A couple was brought into the morgue about two hours ago, it took the police that long to find you. I'm terribly sorry for you lose." Hataye says bowing his head. He turns to his right to pull out the other drawer to revile a man with white hair and his skin to match. She knew why she is here, to confirm their identity so they can be moved out of this place and to a proper burial. The woman falls to her knees letting out a hurtful sob as she cries her heart out.
"Hey Sango, do you mind watching Kazuki for me while I go run an errand?" the woman with raven hair asks looking at the sleeping inu-pup on her lap trying to be quiet on the phone. "Kagome, what's wrong?" her best friend asks worried lace with her sleepy voice. "I hope nothing." She replied in a serious tone. She glances down at her God-son with worry, Kikyou and InuYasha should have already been by to pick up their pup. Kagome isn't complaining since she loves spending time with him but she finds it odd that she received an unusual call in the middle of the night. "I'll pulling on my jacket as we speak. I want answers when you get back." Sango said sternly at her friend. Sango is worried like Kagome about getting a phone call at nearly three in the morning, something isn't right.
"Miss Higurashi?" Hayate calls to the woman breaking her thoughts. "Please call me Kagome." She replies deadpan. After thirty minutes of crying her eyes out, Hayate has been able to get her to follow him towards the office where his office lies. Kagome has been numb the entire time at the facts about her best friend and cousin lying in those icebox beds looking like they are in a pleasant sleep. If you looked close enough at the couple, you could see that the woman has suffer from head trauma as the man's shirt has been impaled by an object causing his heart to be ripped away from his person. Kagome never thought that she would be sitting across the mortician discussing her God-son's parents. "I can't." she whisper whimpering with fear. "I cannot sit here and discuss this." She told him brokenly. The man understood how hard this must be for her, he closes the file resting his hands on top of it "I'll let the officers contact other family members to announce their death. I'll have the file left at the police station for you to pick up. I pray for you, Miss Higurashi." Hayate told her. Kagome nods standing to her feet, she grabs her coat to slip it back on before leaving the office.
Her mind is numb from the events that occur over an hour ago. Kikyou appointed her to be the God-mother of their son, InuYasha agree to see that she is a perfect match seeing that Kagome has a great passion for children. Kagome didn't want to overstep her boundaries at the time but eventually agree to be their son's guardian if anything was to happen to them. InuYasha wrote down a name for the God-father, Sesshoumaru Takahashi, the multi-billionaire bachelor, who couldn't care less about his half-brother. Kagome never understood his reason to put him down but she never questioned him. She has meet Sesshoumaru a handful of times, she doubt that daiyoukai would even care about the loss of his brother causing her blood to boil.
Kagome arrive back at her apartment, she is tired beyond belief and has a strong feeling that a certain hanyou will be bouncing all over the place. Her heart sunk, tears swell in her eyes, and she bites her bottom lip opening the door to see Sango reading a book. Sango looks up to see her friend looking miserable, she got the hint as she places her book down to make her way towards the kitchen. Kagome closes the door dropping her purse, phone, and kicking off her heels before walking into the kitchen shrugging off her coat to place on the back of the chair at the bar. Sango starts to make coffee for her friend, Kagome's body is shaking with sobs causing the brunette to fly over to her and engulf her in a big hug. Kagome wails into her best friend's arms, gripping onto the older woman as if she too would be ripped from her life at any moment. "Sshh." Sango coos stroking her hair. Sango tights her hold as the woman shakes in her arms.
No words can express the pain that Kagome is experiencing, she lost two important people in her life. Her God-son lost his parents causing Kagome to cry harder. Sango stood there supporting her friend's weight trying to calm her down enough to understand what happen. "Sa-Sango, th-they're gone!" she hiccupped. The older woman is confused by her friend's words, "Who?" she asks tenderly. "Kikyou and InuYasha!" she wails. Sango gasps like a fish out of water, she never expected that when Kagome called her in the middle of the night that she was going to see their dear friends' corpses. A tear slides down her face follow by another and another before she knew it she is sobbing as well. The coffee is forgotten as they both drop to the kitchen floor sobbing like helpless girls.
That night the world has lost not one but two great people. They left behind their son without his knowledge. The innocence of the child will be shatter by the time he wakes up. His innocent questions will bring his God-mother and the woman he considers his aunt to her knees for the third time that day. The innocence of a child will be robbed before noon that day. The world never look so grim.
