Summary: Kagome finds out that she has a disease. A disease that is spreading over Japan. The disease will keep on eating at her body until she can't take it anymore, and dies. This causes Kagome's powers (such as her archery) to decrease in strength, power, and accuracy. Neither Inu-Yasha, nor Kagome's friends know about it. Kagome can't hide it forever, but she will try, and she knows that she will succeed. What happens when an enemy catches on to Kagome's "secret"? What will the Inu-Yasha and crew do? Kagome is frightened, but knows that she can't speak, because now her life depends on it, literally.
This is my first Inu-Yasha story, and I would appreciate any constructive criticism.

Chapter 1- Inu-Yasha, Nothing Is Wrong!
Kagome's POV
I groaned, it had to be too early, or life was cruel. I sat up slowly and rubbed my eyes. Everything was dark. I reached out for my alarm clock, but knocked it over. The bells rang, and I was sure everyone in Japan had woken up.
I read the old fashion clock, it read: 5:00. (A/N I do not know what time The Japanese start school, but I will say 7:30 in this story.)
Thank you Kami-sama! I closed my eyes and felt a pang of pain hit my side. I wheezed and coughed. What had happened? I shook it off, I awoke to early, and that was the problem.
I snuggled into the warm blankets and sighed, nothing beats this.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* (End Of POV)
"Kon-nichi-wa Japan! Today breaking news escapes the country! A new disease is sweeping over Japanese citizens! The disease causes the victim to be weak; it will eat the victim's strength until they die! The only existing cure is-"
Kagome slammed her hand down on the radio and yawned. A disease sweeping over the nation? Hey, that's a good excuse for Jii-chan! Not to mention a believable one!
"Kagome! It's 7:00! Come on!" Kagome's mother yelled.
"Mama I'll be right down!" Kagome yelled back annoyed for some reason.
She walked over to her full-length mirror. Her nightgown showed off her beautiful body. Not to mention her long raven hair waved down her back, stopping at her waist. Her long slender legs were clear of any scars or bruises (though she battled demons almost every singled day). Her innocent gray eyes were big, and filled with joy, anger, hurt, and many more feelings that she could not express. A light pink blush covered her cheeks.
"Kagome, mama said it's now 7:20 and you have to walk to school…"
"OK Souta whatever!" Kagome slammed the door in her brother's face and gasped.
What was with her mood? She never did anything like this to Souta.
"Kagome? What are ya doin wench?"
Kagome jumped up and blushed harder.
"Inu-Yasha?????"
"Oi wench! I'm surprised you're not still in bed, being lazy as usual!"
"Lazy? Inu-Yasha-sama…SIT!" Kagome smacked Inu-Yasha's head and grabbed her school clothing.
"Don't move, I'm going to change!"
"Thank Kami-sama!"
"Not that kind of change Inu-Yasha!"
Kagome left her bedroom leaving Inu-Yasha alone.
"Keh, dumb wench!" Inu-Yasha plopped on Kagome's bed and sighed.
*BRIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGG*
"What the?!"
Inu-Yasha looked at a little pink contraption. What the hell was it? Inu-Yasha picked up the thing and sniffed it.
"Kagome-chan? Kagome-chan? Since when did you get a dog?"
Inu-Yasha's eye went wide, how could a little thing talk so loud?
"Who the hell is this?!"
"Kagome-chan? Is this Kagome-chan's jealous obnoxious, inconsiderate, ignorant, vile, cruel, crude, boyfriend?"
Inu-Yasha's face turned red.
"Boyfriend? Ya mean mate?!"
"Inu-Yasha? SIT!"
"Hello??!!"
Kagome grabbed the phone from Inu-Yasha's fallen figure.
"Kagome-chan…bla, bla, bla, bla, so do ya want to come?!"
Inu-Yasha covered his ears and growled, Why the hell does that woman talk so much?!
"Sorry Erri-chan (A/N sorry if this is wrong, the names I will be using is Yuka, Erri, and Ayume) I can't I have plans already," Kagome hung up the phone before her friend could protest.
"Alright Inu-Yasha, I have to go now, I am basically 5 minutes late so I'm off!" Kagome started to walk but suddenly felt weak, she fell.
Inu-Yasha quickly caught Kagome and began to worry.
"Are you OK wench?"
"Yeah, I just tripped,"
"Feh,"
Kagome stood up and ran down the steps, running out the door.
What's wrong with me? I feel like a 100 year old woman!
Kagome grasped her side and stopped, she coughed and wheezed. She couldn't make it, she couldn't move.
"Inu-Yasha…"
