He minna-san, here's another update. Sorry for the cliffhangers, but this is how I wrote it. I wrote this over the summer, by hand and then typed it. If I change it, it'll mess me up. So sorry.

Life Continues Chapter 3

~ Inu's POV ~

I stared, too stunned to move. Kagome laid in the bed, an oxygen mask over her mouth and nose and machines were monitoring her. Bruises and cuts covered her face and arms. I snapped out of it and went to her to look at her. She was unconscious so I hesitantly took her hand in mine. I stroked it lightly with my thumb and looked up at her face to see her eyes open. She stared at me and a few tears fell down her cheeks. I wiped them away and cupped cheek gently with my hand. I noticed her smile through the oxygen mask at me. I smiled back and kissed her forehead.

"Get some more rest, koi." I whispered.

She nodded slightly and closed her eyes. I kept my hand holding hers and moved the other down to her stomach resting it there. I looked up at Sango and Miroku sitting in a chair near the window.

"What happened?" I asked quietly so as to not wake Kagome.

"Well she was walking to meet me and I think someone grabbed her. I heard a scream and ran to find her getting mugged by some guy in an alley. I knocked him out and then called the police and an ambulance." Sango told me.

I growled and removed my hand from Kagome's stomach and clenched it at my side.

"Where is the guy now?" I growled out.

"He's at the police station. Why?"

I looked down at Kagome and removed her hand from mine. I turned and opened the door to leave.

"Where are you going?" Miroku asked and I heard him get up.

"To kill someone." I growled. I then ran from the room and up to the roof of the hospital. I had picked up the guy's scent on Kagome so I ran to the police station. I burst into the station and quickly followed the guy's stench. I found him and grabbed him by the throat and threw him roughly to the floor. The officer yelled something, but I ignored him as my vision flashed red. The officer grabbed my arm and as I threw him off, the guy punched me in the side of my head. I barely moved, but my hat fell to the floor. Both men gasped and I turned to the one that had punched me. My vision went completely red and I raised my claws threateningly.

"Wrong move asshole." I growled as I lunged at him, my claws aimed at his chest.
