Six years later
"Ok Kagura you only have about 1050 hours left until you'll be able to take the exam to get your license." Kanna said looking up from the manila folder where all of Kagura's hours were calculated.
"And I thought right after I got my masters for therapy I would just have a license. Silly me." Kagura huffed.
For the past six years the wind demoness had been in school to become a therapist. It was her true calling. Of course it took a year of total freedom, moving from place to place, to find this out.
"Well school was only the half of it." Kanna remarked, standing up. The white haired demoness is Kagura's superior throughout the time she has to do professional practice before she gets her license.
"Great," The wind user rolled her eyes thinking about all the work she had yet to do. "Thanks Kanna," Kagura sat up and grabbed the manila folder, depositing it in her shoulder bag.
The white haired mentor just nodded and left the little office. No doubt going back to work. Kanna was such a workaholic and very loyal to her job. It was something that Kagura had to admire, even if her petite superior was a little devoid of emotion.
With a few deep breaths, steadying her to go back to work, Kagura also left the office and entered the white hospital halls, her heels clicking noisily.
It was a little eerie at first to come to work every day to such a solemn place. For the first few weeks all Kagura saw was heartbreak and worry from the patients or the patient's loved ones, and a strange mixture of apathy and caring from the doctors and nurses. The wind witch almost quit her job at the hospital and moved on to a job in a social work office. But after a few weeks she began to get comfortable in the hospital, and saw all the people she could help. It all became worth it, and now she loved her job.
The demoness was steadily walking past the ICU to her next appointment; she wanted to get by as fast as possible without seeming like she was uncomfortable. However, Kagura was uncomfortable and no matter how safe she felt in the hospital, the ICU never sits well for her. There was always too much pain in the hall.
"Kagura?" Someone called out to the wind witch just as she was about to be home free.
Her clicking sensible heels silenced as the red eyed vixen turned toward the caller.
The wind user's eyes widened slightly as she recognized who it was. The white hair, the fangs, the dog ears, and the hazel eyes were all familiar.
"Inuyasha." Kagura said almost breathless. She never thought she would see him of all people here.
The hanyou smirked. "I knew it was you, you haven't really changed a bit. Except maybe your sense of fashion," Inuyasha pointedly looked down at her pencil skirt and high heels. Kagura never used to wear that type of clothing; she was more of a casual jeans and t-shit girl.
"I've grown up some since you last saw me." The demoness replied.
"Keh, obviously. I thought you were supposed to be traveling the world, being all free and stuff." Inuyasha stated.
"Well not that it's any of your business, but I did that for a year to find myself. After that, I went to college, and now I'm a therapist." Kagura explained.
"Wench, you forgot to mention leaving Sesshomaru," Inuyasha remarked.
The wind user's face saddened for a moment and if Inuyasha didn't have at least a little demon in him, he would have missed it. He didn't.
"You're not a cold hearted bitch after all. You do miss him." The hanyou observed.
Kagura's eyes darkened. "What are you doing here anyway?"
"Not that it's any of your business," Inuyasha mocked, "-but I'm here visiting the guy you left."
"Se-Sesshomaru is here?" The wind witch stuttered.
"Yeah the bastard got into a car accident and just now came out of the coma. It shouldn't be long till he leaves this place."
Kagura looked down trying to sort through her emotions.
"Look if you miss him that much, just go and visit him." Inuyasha said his voice softening a little.
"No, I'd rather not. Now if you'll excuse me, I have an appointment to go to." Kagura said rushing off.
"Keh, stupid wench," Inuyasha muttered after her receding form barely missing Kagura's ears.
Kagura hurried along the halls, trying to get to her appointment as fast as possible. No, she could not be tempted to go back there. Besides, it is already too late to make up with her first love; he would reject her on the spot. Sesshomaru has probably moved on from her, and doesn't even think about the wind user who left him anymore.
No, she could not let one chance meeting give her hopes when Kagura had put her old life behind.
"I'm different now." Kagura said under her breath as she walked into the patient's room.
