Authoress Notes: Well, well, well, I'm back! Long time no write! My 'Let Out The Steam' fics are gone. Idiots! I curse you!(j/k!). Oh well, here is a new one.

Basically, it is a modern spin on the tale. There is no well, there are demons, and well, I really hope everyone will give this a chance. I'm trying to keep it as close as possible to the show, but I'm having tons of trouble! It's just was an idea swimming around in my head, so R & R!

Disclaimer: Do you honestly think I would still be going to school if I owned these characters!

Not Your Typical Nursing Job

Prologue: New Charge

Beep, beep, beep of the heart monitor continued it's lonely song. A nurse opened the blinds to let the light shy into the dark and lonely room.

"Kori-kun your brother is here to see you." The old nurse called to the unresponsive body.

"Keade-sama, you know my brother is in a coma correct? And that he cannot understand you." The man answered coldly.

"Sir, it is a well known fact that those in a coma can hear you, and possibly recover faster." Keade replied pointedly, "and I teach all my charges this."

"This is off topic Keade-sama, is there any improvement in my brother's condition?" He asked smoothly. Keade looked over at the young man in the bed next to her. He seemed to be in a deep sleep.

"He is stabl-"

"Yes, I am well aware of that Keade-sama, but you have been telling us that for five long years, is there any chance of him improving?" The man demanded.

"We don't know." Keade answered truthfully.

"Well hurry up and find out. I'll be back for a report in five days." With that said the man stormed out of the hospital room.

"Keade-san, you called for me?" a young nurse asked softly as she entered the room.

"Ah, Kagome this is your new charge." Keade stated softly.

"Keade-san, I need to have his records." The young woman asked softly as she took a seat beside the older woman.

"He was hit by a car five years ago, the car rammed him into the tree."

"Does he have a name?" Kagome asked in a slightly joking manner.

"Yes, Kagome, I'd like you to meet my favorite patient…Kori InuYasha."
