~~~~Truth can hurt~~~~
Inuyasha quickly manuvered around the cop cars and squeezed through the police men who had made a protective barrier around the accident. One of the cops grabbed Inuyasha as he begged with the police oficer telling him that the women in that accident was his wife. The cop let go of him and Inuyasha bolted past him and made it to the accident scene. When the image came into view, Inuyasha stopped dead in his tracks and his jaw dropped at what he saw. The car that had been running from the police was badly banged up infront, the winshield was broken and the remaining shards of glass dripped with blood. Leaning up against the car was the unharmed driver mumbling something about how he didn't mean to do 'it' as he was being handcuffed by the police. Inuyasha's eyes drifted back to the front of the car were he saw a streak of blood running from the winsheild down the hood and even dripped off the grill of the car. Lying a few feet infront of the car, doubled up was Kagome. She was laying on her back with her eyes shut. She seemed not to respond to the desperate cries of her son begging her to open her eyes.
"Ka-Kagome?" Inuyasha choked as he dropped to his knees on the ground. He slammed his fists into the ground, he was so confused as to how this could happen. He lookes up at his son's pleading eyes. Inuyasha crawled to Kagome's side and as he hovered over her did he realize that it was raining. When did it start? Inuyasha wasn't sure. Kagome's face was wet and washed of blood. Inuyasha took her hand without moving her knowing that she could break even more and spoke her name softly. "Kagome? Love? Stay with me, open your eyes." Inuyasha pleaded.
"Inu :gulp: Yasha?" A faint reply came from Kagome. Inuyasha saw that Kagome's eyes were still tightly shut, but glad that she was awake. "Inuyasha. I love you." Kagome's eyes fluttered open as she looked into Inuyasha's deep golden eyes. Her gaze almost scared Inuyasha, her eyes were glazed over and it was as though she was seeing him from a distance.
"Kagome, just hold on help is on it's way, just hold on love!" Inuyasha cried as the ambulance siren came screaming through. Inuyasha watched as men came jumping out of the ambulance and rushed over to Kagome's side with a stretcher. Inuyasha was pushed out of the way as the men quickly began to asess Kagome's condition. As they strapped Kagome into the stretcher, her eyes suddenly shot open and turned towards Inuyasha. They were teared up, but seemed to be more down to earth and not looking so distant. "Inuyasha!! PLEASE! IT HURTS!" Kagome cried through a cracked voice. Her eyes squeazed shut as she gulped and started gurgling, she then coughed and Inuyasha's eyes widened as he saw blood spray from her mouth when she coughed.
"KAGOME!" Inuyasha cried as the medic team closed the doors with Kagome confined in the ambulance. Inuyasha stood and watched as the ambulance went screaming down the street and soon came out of sight as it turned down the street. "DAD!" Inuyasha turned to see his son hurdle himself at his father as though the devil himself was at his heals. Kin slammed into his father's wet fire-rat coat and threw his arms around his father's chest.
"Son, come on, we need to get to the hospital. Your mother will be waiting." Inuyasha said in a dull, strickened voice. And off they went. They took Kagome's car with Kin driving seeing how Inuyasha was in a state of shock due to the events that unfolded right before him.
The car ride there seemed to take an eternity and when they got there, Inuyasha was outraged by the fact that he couldn't see Kagome. The doctor explained that Kagome was put into emergency surgery to stop the eternal bleeding that was going on and they needed to put together a few bones that were severely broken. Kagome was a real wreck and yet surprising to even the doctors, Kagome was still alive.
Inuyasha had been sitting in the surgery wating room for over an hour while Kin made phone calls. "Inuyasha? Hun, I'm here." Inuyasha stood up from where he was sitting to see Kagome's mother standing in the door way. She stepped foward and Inuyasha saw that she wasn't alone. Sota had come as well and the poor boy looked so confused and upset.
"Mrs. Higurashi, Sota. Thank you for coming......Kagome, she's still alive but the doctors don't know if she'll make it through the surgery. Oh mom, it was so terrible! And poor Kin whitnessed the entire thing. I just don't know what to do. I should have been able to save her! This isn't fair!" Inuyasha broke and cried. Kagome's mother stepped foward and let the broken hanyou fall into her embrace. She held him tight as he broke down and cried into her shoulder. His whole world came crumbling down as he sobbed into the motherly embrace.
"Inuyasha, none of this is your fault, don't you for a moment thing that any of this is your fault. I know this isn't fair. But Inuyasha right now we need to stay strong. Kagome is counting on our streangth for her sake." Kagome's mother spoke through her tears. Inuyasha settled down a bit and sat back down as Kagome's mother did the same holding his hand all the while.
Kin had entered the room after making his phone calls to find his father sleeping with his head on his grandmother's shoulder. She sat there stroking his long white hair as his eas twitched every now and then listening to the random noises that popped up in the quiet little waiting room. His uncle sota sat in a chair under the window looking deep in thought. Kin took a seat next to his uncle who he himself idolized like Sota did Inuyasha.
"Hello uncle." Kin said quietly as he sad down.
"Kin. Hi. How are you doing son? I'm sure that you can't be taking this all that well." Sota said softly.
"::Sigh:: I need a break. Dad is in absolute shock. I've been calling mom's friends telling them what's going on, having to keep myself strong while listening to them get all emotional and stuff. Uncle why? Why did this have to happen? My mother didn't do anything wrong, she doesn't diserve this and neither does dad." Kin sighed as he burried his head in his hands.
"I know. But some times bad things happen to even good people. It really sucks." Sota said as he griped the arms of the chair he was currently occupying. Nothing was said after that as Kin was sent deep into thought as well was Sota.
After an hour of absolute silence, the waiting had caused a tension that was so thick in the air it could be cut with a knife. Suddenly the door opened slowly as a doctor came walking in bumbling over the papers and the files he had in his hands. "Higurashi?" The doctor asked as he saw that he was suddenly surrounded by four very worried faces.
"Yes, that's us. So hows my wife? Is she ok?" Inuyasha spat out in one breath.
"Well she made it through the surgery, but as far as her condition goes, well, she's alive. Honestly I can't beleive she's made it this far. She's out of surgery and is in recovery. You can see her when she wakes up. Now I'm going to warn you, when you go into her room to see her, she's going to look a bit different. She has a lot of wires and tubes conected to her and she's going to be surrounded by a lot of machines, but all these machines are helping her breath and are monitoring her. Don't be afraid to hold her hand however and talk to her. She's going to need streangth from her loved ones to help her get through this." The doctor said through pained and tired eyes. He had worked hard to help save Kagome and it was showing.
"Doctor, please tell me honestly, do you think she's going to live?" Inuyasha pleaded.
The doctor looked from Inuyasha down to his papers and back at Inuyasha. "I don't know son. She's lost a lot of blood and we don't know yet if we got all the internal bleeding under control. Right now it's undetermined, but I'm honestly not giving me hopes up on a full recovery. I'm sorry son." The doctor said as he pat inuyasha on the shoulder and exited the room to let the news sink in with the family.
"Oh Kagome." Inuyasha gulped. "Please Don't die." And with that Inuyasha fell back into the chair and looked up into the eyes of his son and voiced the fear that no one wanted to. "Kagome might.....die?"
